Totem Spirit-Owl

The totem is an animal or other natural figure that spiritually represents a group of related people such as a clan.

The owl is the symbol of  the feminine, the moon and the night. It represents magic and darkness, prophecy and wisdom. The Owl sees and knows the truth. When you have lost your way, owl essence will guide you back to your proper path and wisdom. Just listen to its voice inside of you. You will hear, not what is being said by others, but what is hidden.  

We are most likely to lose our way when we become enmeshed in the "shoulds" and "must haves" in life, most of which come, not from our inner selves, but from the opinions and beliefs of those around us. We can spend so much time listening to others about what we should want.

Think for a moment what your life would be like if you were able to only pursue what speaks to you from the soul. What would remain? What then would you "hunt" because it provided for you on all levels?

Owl medicine becomes crucial in helping us to clear out that which is no longer needed or wanted. What may seem like a death to us in the giving up of something may be for another the birth and manifestation of a dream.

Owl sees far into the future and knows that even after the darkest night there is a new dawn that is approaching. The death of the old then becomes not a loss, but a new adventure to be explored with great abandon and joy.

Angel of Temperance

14. Angel of Temperance
The angel of Temperance embodies our need for balance and moderation, our need to find healing by connecting to our inner emotions and sense of truth.

The water symbolizes a stream of consciousness. If we can surrender and capture our own flow, we can find ourselves rejuvenated and healed.

Number fourteen in the Tarot, and sometimes referred to as The Weaver, Temperance is about finding the perfect blend.

The union of water with earth and nature represents a unification of the conscious and unconscious realms. The lily indicates that we are coming into a fuller integration of ourselves and developing personal balance.

We can learn by stilling ourselves and listening to the tranquil waters running through our spirits. So link with your own energies and dive into your own rhythmic waters. The answers will be crystal clear and bring you peace.

Gaia-the World Tarot

21. The World Card
Representing the World Card, the spiritual embodiment of the earth, the creative life force that runs through the entire universe, Gaia is the primordial earth-goddess in ancient Greek mythology and just one of the universal manifestations of the ‘Great Mother’ discovered in all cultures dating back to Paleolithic times.

Known as Mother Nature or Mother Earth, she forms part of the triple goddess with aspects of maiden, mother and crone, intertwining in the same way as life’s natural cycles; the moon, the tides, growth, time and space.

Gaia reconnects us with our instinctive selves and the natural rhythms of the earth, where death is part of regeneration rather than an end, and birth is not simply a beginning but a phase in the continuum.

With her sacred owl that ties her to all wisdom, the earth’s caretaker reminds us to live in harmony with all her creatures and resources. She reminds us of the interconnectedness of all that lives in the world.

Numbered twenty-one, The World or Universe is the final card of the Major Arcana in the tarot, a card of completion, satisfaction and fulfillment. We begin in innocence, endure our hardships but emerge stronger, wiser, balanced and measured. As the cycle completes so it also begins. We are at one with the world.

Queen of Cups

The Queen of Cups
Highly, intuitive, psychic and dreamy, the Queen of Cups embodies the pure fluidity of water, reflecting the hidden depths of others back to them so they can see their own mysteries for themselves.

Her cups are closed and her secrets remain invisible but her ability to connect on a soul level enables her to remedy the broken hearts of others. She is a safe harbor, a supportive woman, poetic and creative. Her message …trust your intuition and listen to your inner voice.

The Dreaming

The Dreaming Death

For still though thou be gone, I see 
In the glad mirror secretly 
That I am beautiful in thee, 
Thy love irradiates my eyes, 
Tints my skin gold, and melodies 
Of music run over my face; 
Smiles envy kisses in the race 
To bathe beneath my eyelids. Light
Clothes me and circles with the might
Of warmer rosier suns. Thy kiss 
Dwells on my bosom, and it is.

by Aleister Crowley (astrologer, mystic, magician and poet)

Fairies

--"I believe in everything until it's disproved. So I believe in fairies, the myths, dragons. It all exists, even if it's in your mind. Who's to say that dreams and nightmares aren't as real as the here and now? Reality leaves a lot to the imagination."

Danse Macabre:-Dance of Death

216 Comments

The Danse Macabre or Dance of Death unites all, reminding us how fragile our life and how vain the glories and material pursuits become. The earliest artistic examples of the Danse Macabre are dated from 1424 and found in a frescoed cemetery in Paris.

A last dance as cold comfort it evokes a hysterical desire for amusement while still possible and is usually depicted as the personification of death leading dancing, skeletal figures to the grave.

Also known as Danza Macabra (Italian and Spanish), Dança da Morte (Portuguese), or Totentanz (German).

Magic Faraway Tree COLLECTION

Enid Blyton wrote the Faraway Tree Stories in the early part of the 20th Century and they were published between 1939 and 1946 in England.

At the bottom of the garden, three children find the Enchanted Wood where the trees whisper amongst themselves the secrets of the forest. The children also discover an enormous tree with branches that seem to reach into the clouds. When they climb the Faraway Tree they find it is inhabited by fantasy folk and they soon make friends with brownies, elves, fairies, talking animals and the magical folk of the faraway tree such as the Angry Pixie, Moonface, Dame Washalot and dear little Silky the fairy.

At the very top of the tree the children discover a ladder which leads them up through the clouds and into changing magic lands such as the Land of Spells and the Land of Dreams. One of the lands they visit is The Land of Treats.

Oh! and what treats! Circuses, pantomimes and clowns. There are roundabouts with live animals to ride on such as a golden pony! And guess what? There are balloon rides too. There's even an ice-cream stall where you can find ice-creams in every flavour you could ever imagine.

Landslides and moodswings As my careworn eyes meet
A quiet few balconies
On an even quieter side street,
My talltales, they shorten;
To the skyline retreat.
As a led astray gush of wind
My neckline sets to greet,
A blank piece of paper and
Endless opportunities
Stir beneath my fingers' heat.
To move them now is such
Slight a deed, indeed.

I won't care for in morning;
This shepherd, that nymph,
And all wretched couplings,
That in moon's pale stretch lies
A Rome till this ceiling
And a draped windowpane
Could still make a heart wring;
That a finger-painted sky
And the night's velvety scent
As much cajoles my writing,
As probable a meteor rock is

My Poetry

Yearn She wants to dance with him…
curling hips in primal promise sway.

She wants to lay with him…
trace gentleness on leisured sheets of light

She wants to rage with him…
puffing chests in fervent brash opinion.

She wants to play with him…
frisking fun and silly crunching banter.

She wants to muse with him…
on justice rare, life's circles, cracks and lines.

She wants to stay with him…
absorb his truth, his earnestness and laughter.

She wants to love with him…
possessive fragile trembling silk enclose.

She wants to reach for him…
and find out what it is,
that makes him cry.

Bound Lay me back on your raw red earth
Mist me, rush me, rapids seething, surging
Bring your mountain, I will cry my springtime tear
Quieten then in clear still water here
Only bound by ribboned cascade light
Breathe my skin
We share same sky same sight.

Yield You've got her where you want her...
Lunatic, can't sleep, can't eat, head spinning,

Gritty

You take her where you want to...
Erratic, dark deep, cold weep, mind numbing,

Scourge

You give her when you want to...
Enigmatic, flesh stroke, thought provoke, soul searing,

Radiant

You leave her how you want to…
Dramatic, heart torn, rage, mourn, death quietening

Silence

You have her when you want her…
Yet she's hanging around the edges of your

peace of mind.

Coming of Age Last week I was aged five with pure excitement,
Yesterday eighty-six and weary with these worldly weights
Today I'm twenty-three with promise.

My eyes are green, the tears dwell close behind the shine.
I can hardly bear the suffering I witness.
I have only ever once been truly seen.
Idyllic teen for all our time together,
Dead the day he turned and locked the door.

My hair is brown, flecked with my bright sun's honey.
My skin is pale, flecked with the ravages of life.
I like my wrists, my breasts, my lips, my fingers.
Although it hurts to say.
I only see the flaws.

I was much too young for the wonder of a baby.
Never old enough

WONDERFUL WORDS

He Dreams In Riddles He dreams in riddles.
The stars laugh at his smallness.
But he dreams unaware
of their mockery,
And therefore immune
And somehow more powerful
In that vulnerability
Realized only by the innocent.
For when we realize our power,
Ego steals it,
Makes it a mockery,
And hurls it to the stars.

Dance in Silence I wish to dance in the light
Your darkness somehow found my soul
Entrancing me into your arms
We unite in admiration
Yearning thoughts riddle both our minds
Something in your eyes haunts my soul
Your mind always on guard
Wanting to break through your walls
How deep will you let me push through
Splitting into this fortress I step inside
Peeling through the first wall of haunting pain
I try my best to breach the second
Only to be pushed back
Fighting through I crash my way inside
Now the walls collapsing on me and all around
How do I help you escape your tortured soul
I realize I am not enough
What now my love
We keep

skinny dipping And she dives, naked and divine
Into the musings of my mind

Expressing motions of feeling quite publicly
Displaying her visions for all to see
Exposing the feminine vulnerable so liberally
Exposing existance with spirited glee

She whispers understandings into my thoughts
Breathes light and energy
Into the dormancy that I was
This quickening of the soul
It has a name
It is her name

This silence
This heartbeat listening

Hush now

She swims within me

We are the madness of our kind
We are the differences we embrace
We are the consistencies in our seeking

Nothing pulls so tightly as your soul

Pockmarks Every man has a moon,
whether in his face
or somewhere else,

seen only when lit
from the outside.

Its warmth hatches eggs
in the space between
songs on your
favorite CD,

and plants seeds
in the back of
your TV
and PC
screens.

Under this duress
of observation
like everybody else
I am not myself,

and the orbit might
just as well make me
older or younger.

A stellar hand that
presses and pulls
me, short and tall
makes me question
every question I've
been taught to ask.

So tonight I will resemble
my brother for just an hour
and walk steady

driving slow but still
playing chicken with
my petrol gauge.

The most danger
