Current mood:  pensive
dearest body in Time - Today is "El Día delos Muertos"/"All Souls Day"... besides honoring our beloved dead, it's a good time to think about our relationship to our up & coming Selves: our descendants... Is there anything you can do to be more conscious about making your life a gift to the future? What might you create that would enhance the destinies of human beings who haven't been born yet? How can you conduct yourself so that you will not only help preserve the wonders we live amidst, but actually enhance them? As you ponder your possible contributions & yes, also take practical action to deepen your commitment to them, keep in mind this thought from George Bernard Shaw... "If you cannot get rid of the family skeleton, you may as well make it dance"...

| | .... |  | the Halloween Season is the time of my fav HighHoly day: the Witches New Year... It's a time to meditate on our link with the Other Side, that realm we slip into when we dream or die or flirt with ecstasy, or loosen the binds of our logical minds... Many people are so frightened of this realm that they avoid ever knowing it - thus ensuring it will always haunt them like an ominous shadow... But because i am a Lunatic Synner/Saint, i've been endowed with a brave attraction to the Other Side... as a result, it's a source of power & renewal...
May this season of the Dark inspire You to catch a glimpse of the other side of the veil to pay reverence to your ancestors, bless what's next, & negotiate a smart new treaty with your evil twin...
Here in America, Halloween calls for an interaction with spooky strangers, that come out of the night, knocking on our door, shouting, give me a treat or you'll get a trick...on a spiritual level, trick-or-treat, can be seen as a demand that strangers, a symbol of the unfamiliar parts of ourselves, give up their gifts to us...cause there is a lot of energy that gets locked up in the dark...& Halloween is an opportunity for us to dialogue with the dark, the shadow side of The Self, & call that energy back... light & dark are not opposites, but 2 parts of the same cycle... In order to fully appreciate the festivals of light, that return with the winter solstice, we must 1st grow in the dark womb of our perennial inward journey... with the veil between the worlds so thin, great transformations are possible, since the power of All the dimensions are available to us... & it's not only the veil between the physical & spiritual worlds that thin... it can also be the division between any 2 polarities, like the left & right hemispheres in our brains for instance...or between any 2 realities that are struggling to coexist, like war & peace for instance...this dark night can represent a resolution of paradox... a respectful meeting of the different sides of the same coin, that can initiate the healing transformation required, in order to let the light back into our lives, once we've come to understand & own our side of the dark...
so don't put your Halloween costume away just yet... or if you have...what costume could you choose to help you activate a secret or dormant part of your potential? Suggestions: something that incorporates a hub, wheel, or web... or just dress-up as Who you Really Are - or what you Really Want to Be...
see you in the Circle... Blessings & Peace - H.A.G. hazel@shedrums.com http://www.shedrums.com/ HAG on facebook Hazel's MySpace join the ConsciousCommunity email list
