On Love. Ramblings on a November full moon

I believe that the only way to love is no holds barred, no armor, no protection, bleeding beating heart right out there on the ground to be trampled or tended, because, you never know, it might, finally be tended to by someone with a gentle hand. And if not? If trampling is what happens? You loved. You loved. I cannot imagine anything else.

This is my blessing on you and also my curse. A poem.

This is my blessing on you and also my curse. A poem.

A poem for my beloved during a breakup.

It’s a weird thing, being a woman who is too much

Too big, too demanding, too clear on what she wants.

Too vital, vibrating with passion and lust for life.

 

You’ll never be happy with anyone who is less though.

This is my blessing on you and also my curse.

Love poetry, love poems, breakup poem

I have my own curses to deal with.

Grief and Wailing Circle

Grief and Wailing Circle

As we sit in the closing edge of the New Moon window at Samhaintide we have the opportunity to let go of the year's deep grief.

Grief over the innocent lives lost in wars around the world.

Eco grief.

Grief we have dissociated from.

Grief we have buried.

Grief we have been sitting in but feel like we may never get to the bottom of.

Rage, too, is welcomed here for release. These two often sit together, grief and rage. All of the emotions that seek voice can be brought to the fire.

instructions for hosting a grief and wailing circle, processing grief and sadness

Samhain

Samhain. Halloween. This time of year when many of us are celebrating the end of the agricultural year and the coming of a new one, yes, even if we also celebrate at the calendar year's end, we are also hard up against the awareness that our ancestral altars are made and calling to us, the remembrances of our beloved--and deeply missed--dead are coming more quickly than is typical.

Creating Time Boundaries in Circle

Creating Time Boundaries in Circle

Time matters. Even in spiritual or somewhat spiritual spaces, time matters. We are living in a 3D realm that runs on a schedule. We get tired and need sleep. We need to move our bodies. We can only *hold so much space for one person* if we aren't being paid to hold that space. It is too much to ask a client, in a circle, to hold the space and to give hers up, so that one unconscious (or selfish) person can breathe in all of the air in the room.
