Blue Electric Eagle/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 9


 

3 Men


Blue Electric Eagle


Blue Night

Pales into white

Moonlight---

 

Blue Snow

On Branches

Sleeping---

 

Blue Dreams

On Eagle’s Wing

Take Flight---

 

Through Stars

And Planets

Beaming.

White Lunar Wizard/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 8


 

2 Ix

 

 White Lunar Wizard 

 

Our Genius requires Risk

To birth our Daimon-—

For then

The Angels gather---

 

Seeds of Brilliance grow---

Planted before Origin---

Watered and fed

By Cries of the Heart---

 

Grow into prodigious Life---

Daimon requires the Rupture

Of mundane Existence---

Where Kairos crosses Chronos---

When Vertical meets Horizontal---

 

Dance into your Destiny---

Embrace Life’s Mystery

 Drama and Agony---

To be reborn into Destiny's true Pattern.

Red Magnetic Skywalker/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Purpose, Day 7

 


1 Ben

 

Red Magnetic Skywalker

 

 Poetry rises like the Mist

Aurora Borealis* at the northern Gate

Streaming new Mythologies –

Sound 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

 

Single-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 the Helix

Radio---sonic Matrix---

Song of the next Age

Spinning into Grace  

 

Look to the new Time

A Vision that glows

On the far Edge of Destiny

Where the Tree of Life

Blossoms and grows.

 

 

*In northern latitudes, the effect is known as the aurora borealis (the northern lights), named after the Roman Goddess of dawn, Aurora, and the Greek name for the north wind, Boreas.

Yellow Cosmic Human/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 6


13 Eb


Yellow Cosmic Human

 

Just as Ignorance blossoms in Darkness

Unbearable to endure---

So the Time of Cosmic Humans emerge

 

Transforming Intelligence into Consciousness

This new Being comprehends

Time and Space within Movement and Measure

 

Within the Cosmic Human beats the Cosmic Heart---

Heart of Earth/ Heart of Sky

Extending Love to Earth and all sentient Forms

 

Far-seeing Sages, Philosophers, Mystics

Seek to lift the Mind of Humanity---

Cosmic Humans are these---from the Heart of the Galaxy.

Blue Crystal Monkey/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 5


 

12 Chuen

 

Blue Crystal Monkey

Hymn to Melpomene*

 

She---a Being of Soul and Wonder

Woven together and torn asunder

By Love

In every Aspect

 

Scarred and veiled her Heart

Of Gold and Silver spun

Broken by Betrayal

By Forgiveness Won

 

Compassion warms

Her pulsing Blood –

Drowning Sorrow

With a Song

 

 Shades of Indigo

Shades of Blue

Through Alchemical Magic

Turn Life despondent to Life anew.

 

 

*Melpomene: Greek Muse of Tragedy, Singer of Lamentations, Mother of the Blues.

11 Oc

 

 

White Spectral Dog

 

 

Above All, the true Heart

Liberation knows---

 

 

Its violet Flame 

Glows with Grace---

 

 

Evokes a Sacred 

Unconditioned Love---

 

 

Beneath this Light

Under a shining Sun

 All Separation ends

Dissolving into One.

Red Planetary Moon/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 3

 




10 Muluc

  

Red Planetary Moon

 

Learn the Language

Of the Moon---

A new Word daily

For Love and Beauty

 

The Day-Keeper’s Time

Marked in Poetry---

Nature’s Language murmured

In Rhythm and Rhyme

 

Galaxies sail

The ethereal Brine

 Ships of colored Light

In Sacred Design

 

My Classroom---

An ever-darkening Sky

Full with Intimations of Infinity---

Blessed Fruit ---silver Blossoms rife

Adorn the Cosmic Tree of Life.

Yellow Solar Star/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 2

 



9 Lamat

 

Yellow Solar Star

 

Sun

And Moon

Pyramids of Stone –

Heart’s Fire –- Dust unto

Dust – Immortal Toltec Gods

Creation’s ancient Glyph & Tone –

Sacred flaming Gifts to Quetzalcoatl –

Plumed Serpent – Symbol of a Shaman’s Crown

 

 

I climb

The moaning

 Wind to the Summit –

Phoenix rising from the Ashes –

Past Lives renewed and incarnated –

Who climbed these Heights, never to descend?

 

 

 Who

Has prayed

Here to gods of Fear

 And Desperation?  Echoes hum

Sung by Souls gone long ago to Rest –

 Gentle Patience pulses in silent shining Stars

Watching the dubious Progress of Man –

 How miniscule are these grand

 Structures to the wide

 Eyes of Heaven?

The Sun or

Moon?

Blue Galactic Hand/ Lunar Scorpion Moon of Challenge, Day 1


 

8 Manik

 

Blue Galactic Hand

 

Two wild Swans

Swim stately by

The northern Shore---

Symbols of the peaceful Soul---

Realized and whole

 

Apparently, a Pair

One female---one male

Calm and slow

Mark of the sacred Androgyne –

White as driven Snow.

White Resonant World-Bridge/ Magnetic Bat Moon of Purpose, Day 28

 


 

7 Cimi

 

White Resonant World-Bridger 

 

A hidden Thing is Wisdom---

The Seed within the Fruit

Her Power is Potential

Patient, prudent – innocent

 

Confused with Knowledge often---

Great Insight grows apace

In graceful, peaceful Solitude

In rich Experience

 

Finally Wisdom blossoms

The Shell surrounding breaks---

We perceive beyond all Form

 The Shift to Love is born.

Yellow Overtone Seed/ Magnetic Bat Moon of Purpose, Day 26

 


5 Kan

 

Yellow Overtone Seed

 

Sing this song for Women

Who are left bereft---

When Children, Brothers, Husbands, Parents die---

Women of the War-torn World---

Killed and maimed---

Burned---stoned---raped---beheaded and shot through---

Let us weep for those

Who live half-lives---Hearts torn up---

Riven into jagged wounds---

Wet with sacred Water---

Wet with tears of Grief

 

Weep also for those

Harpies of the Patriarchy

Whose Passion becomes Madness---

When Logic gives way

And Violence holds sway

These Women are Women no more---

Lost in the Wasteland of a Land undone---

 

This country like an aberrant

Adolescent, thrown between Extremes---

Losing all Balance 

These women Shriek---

Unnerved by Insanity

They shout from twisted Mouths---

Hurling Insults and Epithets---

These Women are deranged

Unstrung---women who kill

Their young with prejudicial Poison---

Cry for these Hearts

Shattered---battered beyond Repair

Hearts living outside the Body---

Unconnected---broken---closed to Compassion

 Women no more

These “Vagina Dentatae”---

The blind Graeae of one Eye only.

Double Vision

Found in Dreams

Gives Way

To central Scenes---

Telling Psyche’s Story

In symbolic Allegory

 

These elemental Forms

And Themes---

Character---Conflict---Plot---Play

Perform throughout

The long dark Night

To reconcile the Day.

1Ahau


Yellow Magnetic Sun

 

 

Under the Magnetic Sun

In all ways, we are One---

Magnified in Purpose

Unified by Love

 

Under the yellow Sun

Threads of Light

Weave Time and Space

Into 13 Moons of Grace

 

Another Sun Rises

Over the Red Road---

 New Humans initiate

The original Time Code.
