Blue Rhythmic Night 

 

Up from the Depths

Through blue rhythmic Night---

An Abundance of Dreams

 

Symbols and Themes

Redolent with Archetype---

Signifying Treasure

 

Cherish these---

For numinous are they

And Sacred

 

With Energy enough

To render whole

A lost or broken Soul.

White Overtone Wind/ Planetary Dog Moon of Manifestation, Day 7

 

5 Ik

 

White Overtone Wind

Psyche’s Song*

 

 I lit the Lamp of Insight

Then I saw the god in you---

A Spark---a sparkling Star

Beneath your hooded Eye---

In Fear you spread your Wings

To fly---

 

Now I wonder and I wander

In Anguish and Despair---

Each Breath a mournful Cry---

 

Are you gone forever?

Will you let me die?

 

Or will you save me, Love---

From my riven Soul

And the existential Lie? 

 

 

*Eros, the god of love, deserts Psyche his lover, when she looks upon him in the night. She has been forbidden to do so. Therefore, he flies back to his mother, Aphrodite, goddess of love. Psyche and Eros symbolize the inner feminine and masculine aspects of soul and consciousness which must be reconciled before psychological wholeness is achieved.

Red Self-Existing Dragon

 

Like Fish are we

Swimming in Oceans of Soul

From Sea to shining Sea.

Yellow Electric Sun/ Planetary Dog Moon of Manifestation, Day 5

 

3 Ahau 

Yellow Electric Sun

 

From  Diamonds we derive---

Emerald Electricity

And Sapphires blue---

 

 Souls wander through

Stygian Darkness

Into the Wombs of Women---

 

Spiraling Flight

Tumbles into Being

Pulsing with Time---

 

As Above, so Below---

 Spine holds the Codes

From Root to Crown

 

Zodiacal Gates

Open to Symbol

Life after Life---

 

Children of Light

Spin into Glory---

Then through Story

We Return eternally.

Blue Lunar Storm/ Planetary Dog Moon of Manifestation, Day 4

 

2 Cauac

 

Blue Lunar Storm

 

I sacrificed the Sacrifice---

My Womb removed and never tried---

 

Am I Virgin now

Or just worth Less?

 

I hear a distant Symphony

A Hymn of String and Drum---

 

I abide on the metaphysical Side

Full of wild Life---

 

A swirling whirling

Stormy Sea of Dance and Poetry---

 

This is my Rebirth

And my Becoming----

 

My Atonement and Salvation---

Raison d’étre and Redemption.
