SPRING EQUINOX COMMUNION

Last night I was the Universe.

 

All of it.

Whole and complete.

Perfect.

 

Last night I was in ceremony, celebrating life.

All of it.

Even its darkness.

 

Last night knew myself to be in communion.

With everyone and everything.

All of it.

 

Now and forever.

HARMONY

Harmony: the quality of forming a pleasing and consistent whole

 

 

This is one of the dictionary definitions of harmony.

The word that jumped out to me was ‘pleasing’.

DEEP LISTENING

“Let the words you speak be worthy of the silence they break”

Anon

 

 

This phrase was spoken into the silence of a circle I was a part of over a decade ago and they have stayed with me ever since.

 

As a reminder of the sort of deep presence that I seek to cultivate on a daily basis.

 

How do you feel about silence?

THE BALANCE OF POLARITIES

Next week is the Autumn Equinox, falling in the sign of Libra on the 22nd Sept.

 

Equinoxes are times when the day and night are exactly the same lengths, bringing us to an alchemical moment of balance and awareness.

 

Libra, traditionally shown as a female figure holding scales in her hand, represents harmony and equilibrium in all aspects of life.

 

So this is a time when we are all invited to consider how we are dealing with seeming polarities in our lives.
