Aurora Borealis
Poetry rises like Mist

Aurora Borealis at the
northern Gate
Streaming new
Mythologies
Wind and Light incarnate
Look to the Moon –
Her constant
Inconstancy –
Power transformed
Enchantment embodied
Civilizations
deconstruct
Nascent Nation-States
Buy and sell themselves
Into Oblivion
One-eyed Wotan
Slouches toward Bethlehem
Like the Cyclops
Polypheme –
Beast of Cruelty and
Mayhem
Listen to your S(elf)
Your shadowed Soul
Singing to you often
In a small Voice soft
Attune to natural
Time and Grace –
Songs of peaceful
Beings
Spinning in from outer Space
Look to the new Sun
On the far Edge of Destiny
–
Where the Tree of Life
Blossoms and grows .

Svadhistana Chakra*
The second chakra, located just beneath the navel, and related to our sexual and reproductive capacity. Blockage manifests as emotional problems or sexual guilt.
Behavioral Characteristics
Normally a person between the ages of eight and fourteen acts from second-chakra motivation. He will sleep eight to ten hours nightly, in a fetal position. In terms of the elements, the earth is dissolved into water. Instead of standing alone and defensive, as he did in first chakra, the child begins to reach out to his family and friends for physical contact. The imagination increases. Once the need for food and shelter is met, the person is free to visualize any environment or circumstance that he desires. Sensuality enters into relationships as a new awareness of the physical body evolves.
The desire for physical sensations and mental fantasies can be a problem for the person at this level. Gravity causes water to flow downward, and thus, the second chakra can have a downward, whirlpool effect on the psyche, causing a person to be restless and confused. The body and mind have natural limitations which must be respected and understood if the person is to remain healthy and balanced. Eating, sleeping, and sex must be regulated in order to attain a harmonious, peaceful state of body and mind.
A second chakra person often pretends to be a prince, lord, or hero. He changes roles, maintains high self-esteem, and is chivalrous. Every culture produces an abundance of stories and poems heralding these royal heroes, destroyers of evil.
Svadhisthana Chakra encompasses the astral plane as well as the planes of entertainment, fantasy, nullity, jealousy, mercy, envy, and joy. The astral plane is the space between heaven and earth. Here the earth becomes a jewel and the heavens are within reach. Fantasy may be used to advantage through the crafts and fine arts. Nullity is a state of emptiness and purposelessness. When the world is seen with a negative mind, nothing excites, nothing pleases, all is lost. Envy and jealousy arise from a desire to possess the time or qualities of another. This results in a destructive state of restless anxiety. The plane of joy brings a feeling of deep satisfaction. This joy penetrates the entire consciousness of the person who has evolved beyond the aspects of the second chakra
Emotional identity, oriented to self-gratification. The second chakra, located in the abdomen, lower back, and sexual organs, is related to the element water, and to emotions and sexuality. It connects us to others through feeling, desire, sensation, and movement. Ideally this chakra brings us fluidity and grace, depth of feeling, sexual fulfillment, and the ability to accept change. Sensation.
Governs sexuality, creativity, emotions, anger, fear instinct, to nurture, spleen, perceptions concerning food or sex.
