Red Planetary Skywalker/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 22

10 Ben

  

Red Planetary Skywalker

  

Faster than the Speed of Light

We travel Side by Side

Deeper than the Sky of Night

Love’s Arms reach in to guide

 

From now to then and back again

Ensconced from here to there

We fly above all Doubt and Pain

Past all concern or Care

 

The newborn Moment is our Carriage

Dressed in Gold and Silver Time

Guarding well the Oath of Marriage

Floating on the Wings of Rhyme

 

Sails of deep Devotion direct

Our Ship of State

Trimmed to perfect Destiny

The favorite Child of Fate.

Yellow Solar Human/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 21

 

9 Eb

 

Yellow Solar Sun

 

 Born into Ignorance

 I serve only Truth

 

I follow a golden Lamp

Into the Origins of Time

 

I am the numinous Feminine 

In a collapsing World of Men

 

Initiated into false Values

Fallen Wisdom – devious Love

 

I am Love itself –

The Life that sings

 

I am Eternal – Infinite

I am the Sacred in all things.

Blue Galactic Monkey/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 20

8 Chuen

 

Blue Galactic Monkey

 

Soul's Call

Repudiates Rest –

It sounds an insistent Echo –

An Unrelenting Cry

 A Disquieting Hum

Quivering

In the Heart’s deep Drum

 

Soul's Voice  

Declines Silence –

Until we hear

And then begin to listen

It moves us

And behooves us to move

Into the World –

 

 Soul's Call  

Summons Risk and Fall –

 Journeys without Distance

From Fear into Love

 

Soul's Voice 

 Summons Vision

Requires Variety

Ritual and Sobriety

In order to be healed 

Heeded and heard again.

Red Rhythmic Moon 

 

Of a new Mother

 

Am I now born –

 

Re-born and born again –

 

 

Of the Triple Womb

 

 Of the Rhythmic Moon

 Triple Goddess –

 

Original Trinity –

 

Original Blessing.

Yellow Overtone Star/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 17

5 Lamat

 

Yellow Overtone Star

 

Heavy was I

With Life unlived –

 Tears unshed

 

Orbiting around myself –

Judging without Mercy

Merciful without Judgment

 

An Ogre sat

Upon my Heart

Devouring my Passion –

 

Then came You –

With Star - bright

Eyes – your

 

Heart warm with Love

Wrapped like a Gift

From Above.

 Now, because you are

Free to fly I shine, glisten

And glimmer like a

Clear crystal Tear on the Tip

 Of your out-stretched feathered Wing.

3 Cimi

 

 

White Electric World-Bridger

  

Bullies birth the Saints

Long suffering –

 

One Hundred and Four

Thousand Years an Age

 

 Alphabet turns Hieroglyph –

And Cries of Grief to Song.

Red Lunar Serpent/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 14

2 Chicchan

 

Red Lunar Serpent

 

 

Let us move our Mourning to Thanksgiving

Giving up Despair for second Sight

That we may count ourselves among the Living

Our Vision sees through Blindness into Light

Between us many Obstacles arise

To block our Path of Faith around the Earth

But when at last we see with Spirit’s Eyes

The poison Snake of Sadness dies at Birth

Our Gratitude and Faith forever sound

In ringing Psalms of Memory and Praise

Beyond the Walls of Sorrow we are found

Singing Hymns of Joy for all our Days.

 

All Thanks to you, our pure and gentle Dove

Progenitor of Fealty and Love.

Yellow Magnetic Seed

 

Moving up and out –

In the here and now

Am I –

 

Nor Shadow nor Shade

Nor Partner nor Maid

Am I –

                      

Whole and complete

Aware and replete with Wisdom

Am I ––

 

Unchained – unbowed – unwed

Free to choose – choosing Freedom

 

Am  I ---

Fierce and mighty

Grateful and giving

 

Am I ––

Creating – destroying – preserving

All that comes to Matter

 

Am I ––

Daughter – Sister – Mother

 Woman – Friend

  

Am I ––

A Voice that in the End

Bridges Space amid Worlds

 

I Am.

Blue Cosmic Night/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 12

13 Akbal

 

Blue Cosmic Night

 

Into high Symbol

And low

We now go --  

 

Initiation transforms Soul –

Life puts on meaning

Like an Alice Blue Gown

 

But first to the dark Night

The Underworld of War –

Wotan’s* Ecstasy

 

This Wave of Time/Space crests

As Cataclysm transforms

Trinity into Quaternity

Hamlet becomes Faust

 

Descend then to the Mothers –

Sacred Goddess’ Diadem

Earth’s Mysteries prophesy

A New Jerusalem!

 

*Wotan: one-eyed Teutonic god with an insatiable appetite for war and power – symbol of blind violence.

White Crystal Wind/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 11

12 Ik

 

White Crystal Wind

 

 

In and out

 

The Sea breathes

 

Herself awake

 

On morning Tide –

 

The Breeze –

 

A cleansing Current

 

Crystalline Air –

 

Giving up Debris

 

In frothy Paroxysms

 

She bequeaths and leaves

 

Flotsam and Jetsam –

 

 Shells and more

 

Upon her polished Shore.

Red Spectral Dragon/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 10

11 Imix

 

Red Spectral Dragon

 

My Grief –

 I own it as I would

A Dagger plunged

Into my Heart

 

The Blade would

End my Life

If it were Steel

 

Yet Sorrow steals

Much more than Breath

From the dancing Soul –

 

Psychic Wounds

Bleed Tears unceasing –

 Suffering marks

A ground of being –

 

Until Eros lands to

Pull the Knife out clean.

Yellow Planetary Sun/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 9

10 Ahau

 

 

Yellow Planetary Sun 

 

The disembodied Voice

So long held dear –

 

Communication

From afar –

Each Syllable and Word

Recalled –

Love’s Labors these

When Bodies separate

 

Reunion puts a Face on Love –

Alters Space and Time –

Adds Dimension  

More Feeling to a Phrase –

 Rounding out Reality

Making Past and Future

Into Here and Now –

Transforming Promise

Into Vow.

Blue Solar Storm/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 8

9 Cauac

 

 

Blue Solar Storm

 

My Heart is closed for Repairs 

Out to Lunch

Shut down

Boarded up against you

 

You refuse to give –

Even to starving Subway Seekers –

To me you give few Words

Weak Affection

A Pittance of Attention

 

Therefore I will retreat –

Withdraw and free myself

From this Neglect

 

Until further Notice –

My Heart is closed for Repairs.

White Galactic Mirror/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 7

8 Etznab

  

White Galactic Mirror

 

Against green Vines

Violet Thistle blooms

 

Needled Pines grow

Near deep Seafoam blue

 

Monarch sails on

Orange and black

 

From Chrysalis

To Continents

 

Sips syrup sweet –

Then soars in Flight

 

Vibrant Contrast –

Wingèd Light.

Red Resonant Earth/ Resonant Monkey Moon of Attunement, Day 6

7 Caban

  

Red Resonant Earth

 

I set down

A Ring of Fire --

 

 The Bone

The Feather and the Cone

My Territory mark

 

I lay in waiting

 Still – until

 

You cross

The confines

Of my Heart

 

The Ring of my Wondering

The Ring of my Wandering

 

You braved the Limits

Of my Rage

 

My Childhood died –

 Fear fell as well

 

When true Love spoke  

You broke the Spell.

6 Cib

 

Yellow Rhythmic Warrior

 

I will shock you into Joy –

Enough to slough away

The routine Day

Rendering sacred each Moment

In a heartfelt Hour –

 

Whenever you forget

Or lose your Self

I will appear –

Exploding unexpectedly

In the Heart of your Mind –

In the Mind of your Heart

 

If fleeting Greed and Fear

Freeze Creation

I will shake you

To your sacred Roots

With a Thunderbolt of Truth –

 

Oh, dearest One –

Hear my Words

Ineffable and numinous –

Feed your Soul

With Manna irresistible

Welcome me

For I am Love

Made visible –

Your highest Hope

Revealed

Your greatest Passion fulfilled

Life in Death Am I –

The Resurrection and the Way

 

Oh, my Beloved

Your Heart beats

To my Rhythm –

Open to receive me

At your Heart’s Door

For I stand and knock

I shall shock you –

Rock and roll you

Into the Fire-stream

Of Destiny –

Arise!

 

Now is the Time!

Gentle Breezes

Float on Pine –

Which Alchemy to subtle

 Music does refine –

 

Thrumming Whispers humming

Make audible the Air –

 

 Nature’s Instrument the Tree

Exquisite String and Bow –

Singing up to Heaven

All Glory here below.
