where shall we get religion?

beneath the open sky, the sphere of crystal silence surcharged with deity

the midnight earth sends incence up, sweet with the breath of prayer

go out beneath the naked light and get religion there

~can you feel the solstice?~


so here we are, on the threshold of the winter solstice...the great wheel turns yet again and tomorrow we celebrate the return of the light, the return of the oak king...

can you feel it?

it stated with me last night~i couldn't sleep and my whole mind and body felt as if it were fizzing with energy and i have been on a real high all day.

and i am ready for pixies



i have made my releasing bundle and have some gorgeous incense from my friend Tilli, especially for the solstice, to burn while i sit and meditate with my fire in the early hours of dawn.

~however you all celebrate this time i hope you have a wonderful time~

I feel the opposite.... Tired. My body has decided to do different things to normal and I think this is part of my solstice releasing. Hopefuly I will feel differently in an hour or two when I have been awake a little longer!

Song of Amergin


I am a stag of seven tines,

I am a flood across a plain,

I am a wind on a deep lake,

I am a tear the sun lets fall,

I am a hawk above the cliff,

I am a thorn beneath the nail,

I am a wonder among flowers,

I am a wizard: who but I

sets the cool head aflame with smoke?

I am a spear that roars for blood,

I am a salmon in a pool,

I am a lure from paradise,

I am a hill where poets walk,

I am a boar, ruthless and red,

I am a breaker threatening doom,

I am a tide that drags to death,

I am an infant: who but I

peeps from the unhewn dolmen arch?

I am the womb of every holt,

I am the blaze on every hill,

I am the queen of every hive,

I am the shield for every head,

I am the tomb of every hope.
All things share the same breath~the beast, the tree, the man, the air shares its spirit with all the life it supports.

The beauty of the trees,the softness of the air,the fragrance of the grass,speaks to me.

The summit of the mountain,the thunder of the sky,the rhythm of the sea,speaks to me.

The strength of the fire,the taste of salmon,the trail of the sun,and the life that never goes away,they speak to me.

And my heart soars."
