POETRY TO DANCE THE STARS

VENUS AT THE THRESHOLD

The door opened upon her radiance,

The quiet poise of a still-life beauty

Who always wore wings

Visible to all who knew her.

We knocked, seeking tea, to receive bread.

We came joyfully to be embraced in laughter.

We arrived in tears to be held in hope

Fed by her luxe of generosity.

She remains here, within,

A forever talisman of Grace

Waiting for the knock at the door

Luminous perception at the ready.

HARVESTING SEPTEMBER

Wisdom Body Notes for Sept. 3-13 by Samantha Cameron

September is always an important month in each year, not only for mundane changes of season, schooling, and harvests, but the month usually carries deeper, heavier energies calling us onward.  This year, September is a doozy of quixotic demands, and surprising shifts.  Through it all, the most important requirement is ‘radical self-care.’  This is always a Virgo theme, but this year it is not only more important, but needs renewal and deepening, in large part due to the August Eclipse Season.

Bodies are tired.  The earth is exhausted from high temperatures and storms. Old structures of every kind are teetering to tumble.  Speed rises along with Violence…..of course we are exhausted which makes harvesting, planning or adventuring daunting tasks.  We cannot manifest the new until we either surrender or heal the old.  Eclipses teach us to trust as they cycle around each year to eliminate past issues, forcing us toward the unknown.  The ancient origin of the word ‘eclipse’ comes from the root levk- ‘meaning to leave.’  This August asked transformational tasks of us all that we now need to begin implementing so that eventually we successfully harvest this ‘extravagant year’.
