Dreams

tea_cup

She wraps the teapot carefully And places it in a box It was all she had left of the dishes, Now smashed and broken on the stone floor. She sweeps the pieces into the dust bin Remembering twilight dinners Where dreams took stardust And left orchids in the night. She pours the shards into the trash Then hears the falling glass Hoping her little girls would never know Broken wedding china. … [Read more...]

ice

Dancing residue of star- Hewn light, Veins of a rock Cradling the slow wheels of Breathing leaves in rain. Slave markets, drum chants, the bartering for Pelts and shells does not Reach us here, in tales Told in the nerves of a breaking wave.

Quietly, in gentle … [Read more...]

solitary

The following channeling of Alexander is an excerpt from the book Spirit Wisdom II: The Enlightened Warrior's Guide to Personal and Cultural Transformation. Every culture, from aboriginal tribe to complex civilization, recognizes the significance and esoteric mystery of dreams. Modern Western thought, its vision narrowed by the blinders of materialism, struggles to make sense of dreams.

A Prophesy for the Times!

abstract_energy2

As we move further into the new year, numerous prophecies are presented as to what is potentially coming to be. I have not written of the prophecy I am going to share, but I have known of it for approximately 10 years now. Silence. The spirit realm is going to go silent! Those who have been the channeled energies of the universe are going to step away and all communication with the spirit realm is going to come to an end. Spirit guides, channeled entities and groups, as well as angels that … [Read more...]
