“I am oppressed with a sense of the impropriety of uttering words on this occasion. If silence is ever golden, it must be here beside the graves of fifteen thousand men, whose lives were more significant than speech, and whose death was a poem, the music of which can never be sung.”

These words were spoken by General James A Garfield who gave the Decoration Day speech in 1868, opening Arlington Cemetery to Civil War dead. 

Wisdom Body Notes May 26-June 2

Together, we enter this threshold day, awakened by chartreuse green explosions

As every leaf unfurls in splendor, announcing “I’m here!”

Suddenly~ bowers flower overhead, Intricate branching embraces the sky,

Sounding echoes of Llorca’s Romance Sonambulo

“Verde que te quiero verde. Verde viento. Verdes ramas.”

Smoke rises from the fires of Bel cleansing the dead and rotting

Room for faith to rise, asking more, again, love blooms, revealing wonder.

“Verde que te quiero verde. Verde viento. Verdes ramas.”

Energies for the Wisdom Body, April 15-23

Since this Eclipse Season is preparing the world for a new normal, know you will see unprecedented social changes.  Hold on to your hats and prepare to mount up for a wild ride!

Energies for the Wisdom Body, April 5-12

One of April’s formative energy transmissions is this week’s Full Moon, sometimes called April’s “Pink Moon” and or ‘Paschal Moon.’  The pink was named for her arrival over the pink wildflower, Phlox subulata, blooming in April.  ‘Paschal’ has to do with her relationship to Easter as the Sunday after the Paschal moon, Easter is celebrated. New Life is hoped for with both Passover and Easter. This year, pink is a wonderful color to symbolize this Full Moon of partnership.  Despite the yang forces in every Full Moon, this week our thoughts and feelings turn to love and harmony, doing and being, value and finances, boundaries and balance, masculine and feminine.  The Sun, our ego and identity, is in Aires, facing off with the Libra Moon of balance, partnering and strategy.  This opposition is a focus on ideas between Aires’ self-oriented action and commitment to the lunar symphony of relationships of balanced boundaries; or personal needs VS the needs of others.  Yes, this may provoke confrontations, at the very least a review of all manner of every kind of relationship, especially the one with self.  ‘Think Pink’ and offer yourself new ideas of how you might better care for yourself, then share with others. This can be a journey of deep, transformative discovery, so give it the time and attention it needs.

Review of March energy influences

Between the Spring Equinox on 3/20 and the Libra Full Moon on 4/5,   primary planetary energies have shifted and changed course, turning our world in different directions.  March promised to be the highlighted, watershed month of 2023, and indeed it is fulfilling its promise.  Can you feel it?  Has your body tingled with unidentified change?  Has your mind gone on a sabbatical trying to understand the fabric and flow of what once was static? Have you seen old political enemies shaking hands to become ‘frenemies’? Have you watched California’s desert become a lake? Or the south be consumed by tornados?  Can your imagination grasp the potential and power of EI- the useful servant but the frightening master? Access to fusion energy? Hold on to your imaginative intelligence as the world turns on its evolutionary axis.  The boundaries of the old brain are crumbling.  Visualize and imagine what you wish to see/do/become.
