Into the Darkness We Go

Image by Dark Forest   Dark moon nights invite us to adventure into our own interior landscapes, Daring us to discover the unknown, unnamed, mystery within. Asking us to be for a moment in the presence of our shadow self. We are challenged to reach out to our fears and move through them, To dance our way powerfully into the emergent evolution of our awakening selves.

"Behold the Glow of the Moon"

… Behold the glow of the moon illumine the world’s four quarters perfect light in perfect space a radiance that purifies people say it waxes and wanes but I don’t see it fade just like a magic pearl it shines both night and day … || Shih-te, 9th Century Chinese Poet || || “The Moon In Color” by Rogelio Bernal Andreo || …

Somehow, with complete trust that creation is brewing within, Our bodies quiver, collapse, and allow death to make way for new life. … || Image || Grief by Holly Friesen ||
