1 Men
Blue Magnetic Eagle
From the high Aerie
I rise and soar
Exploring crystal Skies---
Honing my Eye to the Land and Sea---
Of the Highlands am I born---
Pine and Birch, my Lair---
Over Waters cool I wheel and climb
Through limpid mountain Air
Blue Eagle am I---
The Rapturous Raptor---
Farsighted Seer of Visions vast
And Dreams of Future Past.

13 Ix
White Cosmic
Wizard
Down from the North
Floats a Shaman’s
Song---
An ancient Melody
Full of Magic---
Words of Love
From the far white
North
Where Land, Sea, and
Sky are One---
An endless Expanse
Where Absolute
consumes the Relative---
Here lives the
Cosmic Wizard
The Healer---wise
One
Seer between the Realms
S/he sings and
dances
To the traveling
Drum---
S/he senses all Things
Through deep
Intuition---
S/he heals every Illness
With Skill hard-won
Human Suffering of
every Kind
The Shaman knows---
S/he feels from
Birth.
The Joy and Pain of Mother
Earth.

12 Ben
Red Crystal Skywalker
I gaze eastward
Toward
Mountains
From
the Desert where I rest---
White
crystal Blankets
Soften
granite Cliffs---
This Quality
of tempering
Pervades
when Snow descends---
Stark
tree Limbs gain Dimension
Green
Pine and Holly
Turn
joyous and jocund---
Smooth,
soothing White
On Earth
after Snow
Echoes
a Shift alchemical---
The Soul’s
Albedo
Out of
leaden Black
Depression---the
Dark Night
Turns into
Indigo Blue---
Relief---Respite during
Psyche’s Transformation
From Darkness
into Light.
