7/27/2020 Yellow Electric Sun/ Magnetic Bat Moon of Purpose, Day 2

3 Ahau

Yellow Electric Sun

From Jasper we come –

From Sapphires blue

From Emerald Electricity

 Soul migrates through

Stygian Darkness

Into the Wombs of Women

Spiraling Light

Tumbling into Being

Pulsing with Sound

As Above so Below –

 Spine holds the Code

From Root to Crown

Gates of the Zodiac

Open to Symbol

Life after Life

Children of Light

Spin into Story then

To Story we Re-turn.

7/26/2020 Blue Lunar Storm/ Magnetic Bat Moon of Purpose, Day 1

2 Akbal

  

Blue Lunar Storm

I sacrificed the Sacrifice –

My Womb untrammeled and untried

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 Poetry –

Here is my Rebirth

And my Becoming –

My Atonement and Salvation

Raison d’etre and Redemption.

7/25/2020 White Magnetic Mirror/ Magnetic Bat Moon of Purpose, Day Out of Time

1 Etznab

White Magnetic Mirror

There is an Ocean by the Highlands

Second largest in the World

She ebbs and flows with Tides eternal

Reaching out with Waves unfurled

There is an Ocean by the Highlands

Atlantic she is called in our own Tongue

Yet she does sing in Tongues unnumbered

Songs for ever Land and Old and Young

There is an Ocean by the Highlands

Laughing with the dancing Stars of Night

She captures all celestial Beams and Planets

Within her endless matrices of Light

There is an Ocean by the Highlands

Kissing all the Shells upon the Shore

She stretches salty Arms around her Islands

As if to say she could not love them more

There is an Ocean by the Highlands

Between two Continents she does thrive

Protecting all that lives beneath her Surface

Bearing to her Ports each noble Ship

There is an Ocean by the Highlands

She is the Stuff of Life and Lore

She beckons all with Swells unceasing

As Neptune for his Aphrodite roars.

Red Cosmic Earth/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 28

13 Caban

Red Cosmic Earth

A cosmic Earth

Turns blushing shy

From Sun’s fierce Eye

At Dusk –

She spins through

Every Day and Night

Navigating a

Rhythmic Equality

Of Seasons –

Patiently she organizes

Synchronic Evolution –

Empowered by

The Universal Fire

Of Endurance –

Under the birthing Power

Of the final Cosmic Moon.

Yellow Crystal Warrior/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 27

12 Cib

Yellow Crystal Warrior

One need not travel far to Dreamland –

Let the Thread unwind

To the Bottom of the Deep

Close your Eyes – loose the Knot

Then fall asleep

The Weaver will awaken

When you are unaware

Intertwining Dreams through

Layered Realms of Truth

Keep close these Shades remembered –

Disjointed – vague – dismembered

Starry Robes of Hypnos

Strewn with Sign and Symbol –

Take the magic Carpet’s Flight

To the Markers and the Making –

The sleeping and the waking

Tapestry and Language of the Night.

Blue Spectral Eagle/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 26

11 Men

Blue Spectral Eagle

Each Bird on the Wing

Has a Story to sing

A  Tale of Sailing

O’er all the Earth

 Sagas of Birth – Death

And Re – Birth

Great Stories of Flight

Adventures in the Nest

From the Hearts

Of Eagle and Ibis –

Paragraphs on Patience

Encomiums on Light

The Wonder of a perfect Egg

Enclosing self-sufficient Life

The Dawn of a Morning

When out from within

A Chick tumbles forth

New – Damp – Beloved

Miraculous Beloved!

White Planetary Wizard/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 25

10 Ix 

White Planetary Wizard

I will arise now

And fly unto Aaron

Fly to my Love

In the Desert Night Air

Purple Grapes will I bring

To feed him, and Figs

Under the Moon

In the Desert Night Sky

For him will I dance

Be-jeweled and Kohl-eyed

Entrance him will I

In the Desert Night Air

I will anoint him

With Oils exotic

Soothing his Heart

In the sweet Desert Night

Unto Aaron I fly

Under sparkling Stars

With Roses in my Hair

Through the Desert night Air 

I will read to him Verses

From the Poet’s wild Heart

Enchant him will I

'Neath the dark Desert Sky 

 Music drifts down

Melodies sacred

Liquid and rare

On the Desert night Air

Aaron, my Priest –

Prince of the Desert

Aaron, my Almond Branch

Young, strong, and fair.

Red Solar Skywalker/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 24

9 Ben

Red Solar Skywalker

The Mind beyond all Measure Power holds

Thought sends us into Heaven or to Hell

A Man enclosed in Bars of Iron cold

When dreaming full escapes his prison Cell

Whence exists a Paradise eternal

Where Time and Space lose all significance?

By transmuting thoughts of Fear infernal

Into devotion’s transcendental Dance

Worth more is Vigilance than Sacrifice

Prerequisite to Life miraculous

 Avoid all Fear while curbing Avarice

Thus will the Cosmos all your Moments bless

Dreams manifest in Synchronicity

When sacred Time designs Reality.

Yellow Galactic Human/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 23

8 Eb

Yellow Galactic Human

Long before…

Before I was (a) Being

I was just a Human doing

           Being just a Doing

Moved me to Despair

In this State I met an Inmate

Both of us sad – both of us desperate

Like Squirrels in a Cage –

Rats in a Maze

I knew not what to be or do –

How to escape – where to go

Finally surrendering all that I did

I went where I truly lived

Mind and Body are merely Tools

To create a Soul worthwhile

Mind and Body made no Case –

Lock, Stock and Barrel

 I moved into Grace!

Blue Resonant Monkey/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 22

8 Chuen

Blue Resonant Monkey

Soul's Call

Repudiates Rest

It is an insistent Echo

An Unrelenting Cry

 A Disquieting Hum

Quivering

In the Heart’s 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 –

Compelling us to fly

Soul's Call  

Summons Risk and Fall –

 Journeys without Distance

From Fear to Love 

Soul's Voice 

 Summons Dreams and Visions

Requires Variety

Ritual and Sobriety

In order to be healed 

And heard again.

Within my Soul

There shines a Diamond

Point of Purity

Where Love abides –

And Life sings on forever.

Red Overtone Moon/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 20

6 Muluc

Red Overtone Moon

Of another Mother

Am I born

Re-born and born again –

Out of the triple Womb

Out of the triple Goddess

Out of a silent silver Moon.

Yellow Self - Existing Star/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 19

5 Lamat

Yellow Self Existing Star

My Soul is a Fire

Hot and wild

My Soul is a River

Like the River Nile

Full of splendor and story

Indifferent to Propriety

He flies through the Night

 From Hippocrene* on Helicon**

My Genius –

My Pegasus***

My wingèd White.

*Hippocrene (Fountain of the Horse):  A spring created when Pegasus kicked Mount Helicon, sacred to the Muses (goddesses of artistic expression); regarded as the living water of the soul as well as the source of poetic inspiration.

**Helicon:  A mountain in central Greece; regarded by the ancients as the abode of Apollo and the Muses.

***Pegasus:  The winged steed that sprang from the decapitated body of Medusa; symbolic of flights of creative imagination.

7/14/2020 Blue Electric Hand/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 18

3 Manik

Blue Electric Hand

  

As I looked down the Corridors of Time

Those Halls were empty, desolate, and still

I’ve lived in every Century and Clime

Becoming what I wish and what I will.

I traveled fast in search of something lost,

Forgotten since the Dawn of Time’s Rebirth

I could not name it nor of Knowledge boast,

Though I Redemption sensed and with it Mirth.

I saw then your Figure solitary,

Beckoning me from Futures not yet lived,

Your strong Embrace gave Sanctuary

From Fear and Death as soon as I believed.

I chose Faith and a Share in what is True

Love rescued me from Time when I met You.

White Lunar World-Bridger/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 17

2 Cimi

 

White Lunar World-Bridger

Moonbeams fall

On all alike

Drifting down

A silver Line

In quiet Night

Upon a World

Polarized

Hypnotized

Mechanized

Radiant Dreams

Rise and fly

To Galaxies nearby 

Dreams of a World restored

From ignorance and fear

From Chaos into Cosmos.

Weaves Moons thirteen

Into a Galaxy renewed.

Yellow Cosmic Seed/ Cosmic Turtle Moon of Presence, Day 15

Yellow Cosmic Seed

Awash in a Sea of Mystery

I wait for Thee

Thou art with me always –

Yet I yearn for Thee unceasingly

Aflame in a Sea of Fire

My Soul knows the underground Gold

Stripped naked each Night

I swim and burn in a Sea of Light

I am visited by a god –

I ache with Infusions of the Vine

How will I endure

Until the Water turns to Wine?
