By Alexandra Pope and Jane Bennett, published by Allen and Unwin Blood time by Pam Chubbuck Finally ... Squatting ... Hovering over the moss ... I watch my blood Slowly drip onto the earth ... Drip Drop A glob of red ... I watch as I have never watched before... My blood. I breathe ... Smell the smell of it ... Fresh ... Alive ... Different than on a pad, old and brown... Or held within me ... Plugged up Inside Never to be seen Felt Acknowledged Flowed Celebrated Or allowed to be my teacher ... I see the inner juices of my body There on the living moss ... Soft Green Spongy, as I step Or sit or lie upon it ... Like the inner Uterine tissue lining - bed Which creates The possibility Of Spirit ... To take hold And turn to flesh. Blood Trickles slowly down my inner thigh ... I watch ... Time stands still Marked only by Drops of crimson as they hit the earth ... I enter dream-time ... The altered state of Blood-time ... This blood ... My blood ... Speaks to me ... Come into me And dance the dance of life It beacons ... You are Dancer Woman Powerful ... Fresh ... Feathered Hawk Woman ... Bleeding Time Woman ... I have mysteries To tell ... And power to unfold ... Listen with your heart ... Your blood pump of life ... As it moves The saline mother of all fluid ... Blood of passion ... Through your womanly body ... Come into me ... My blood calls ... I hold all things ... Known and unknown ... Come! See, feel, taste, smell ... Rejoice in! The secrets of your woman blood ... Pam Chubbuck is the author of Passages Into Womanhood: Empowering Girls to Love Themselves; What My Mother Never Told Me About Bleeding and Other Essential Stuff: Poems to Amuse, Enlighten, and Empower Women; and an audio book; Woman Spirit, a menarche myth, as well as several other books and articles.

The Soul Loves Intimately
Mood:
a-ok
Topic: Musings
The Soul Loves Intimately | | The soul loves intimately, but the self is shrouded in fear. The soul knows that all things are facets of an infinitely faceted divine singularity; that each face you meet is, in fact, a unique expression of God. The self insists otherwise, mistaking each facet of God as a being separate from God and everything else, and envisioning a scarcity-driven, zero-sum world of competing selves forever condemned to a fearful and anxious existence. It isn't the soul that needs to hear the message of love, but the self. It isn't heaven that needs to be transformed by love, but earth. | "Why Angels Have Wings" Rami Shapiro |

Shine Your New Spirituality Light
Mood:
bright
Topic: Musings
You are the light of the world. Do you not know this? Everyone is, when they choose to be. A city on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bushel. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and praise the beliefs which have sponsored them. By this means you can help others span the chasm between yesterday and tomorrow, and close the gap between the comfort of tradition and the necessity of innovation. For the world must now invent itself anew. Yet honor the past as you envision the future. Do not completely reject old beliefs, nor require anyone else to. Enlarge upon them, alter them where alteration seems appropriate, and invite others to do the same. Let your New Spirituality be not the rejection, but the fulfillment, of all that your old religious laws and your ancient prophets have promised you. And when others ask what you are doing, say: Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them, but to fulfill them. The New Revelations Neale Donald Walsch

Happy New Year
Every day is a New Beginning. A new cycle begins this day, yet a new cycle begins every day. Indeed, every moment. So if you recognize anything on this day, recognize what it symbolizes: The miracle of the endlessly continuing Cycle of Life. What a grand day! What a time for celebration! We begin again today! We turn the page! And so, let go of all that you do not wish to carry with you any further. Any fear, any sadness, any anger, any resentment, any disappointment, any lament...let it all go. And now, using the specialness of this day as a springboard, let's get on with Life!

Joy and Sadness
Mood:
a-ok
Topic: Musings
Joy and Sadness | | Joy is life, expressing. The free flow of life energy is what you call joy. The essence of life is Oneness -- unity with All That Is. This is what life is: unity, expressing. The feeling of unity is the feeling that you call love. Therefore, in your language, it is said that the essence of life is love. Joy, then, is love, expressing freely. Whenever the free and unlimited expression of life and love -- that is, the experience of unity and oneness with all things and with every sentient being -- is prohibited or limited by any circumstance or condition, the soul, which is joy itself, is not fully expressed. Joy not fully expressed is the feeling that you call sadness. Friendship With God Neale Donald Walsch Page 264 | |

Is There a Santa Claus?
Yes, Virginia . . . | | We take pleasure in answering at once and thus prominently the communication below, expressing at the same time our great gratification that its faithful author is numbered among the friends of THE SUN. "DEAR EDITOR: I am 8 years old. "Some of my little friends say there is no Santa Claus. "Papa says, 'If you see it in THE SUN it's so.' "Please tell me the truth; is there a Santa Claus? "VIRGINIA O'HANLON. "115 WEST NINETY-FIFTH STREET." VIRGINIA, your little friends are wrong. They have been affected by the skepticism of a skeptical age. They do not believe except [what] they see. They think that nothing can be which is not comprehensible by their little minds. All minds, VIRGINIA, whether they be men's or children's, are little. In this great universe of ours man is a mere insect, an ant, in his intellect, as compared with the boundless world about him, as measured by the intelligence capable of grasping the whole of truth and knowledge. Yes, VIRGINIA, there is a Santa Claus. He exists as certainly as love and generosity and devotion exist, and you know that they abound and give to your life its highest beauty and joy. Alas! how dreary would be the world if there were no Santa Claus. It would be as dreary as if there were no VIRGINIAS. There would be no childlike faith then, no poetry, no romance to make tolerable this existence. We should have no enjoyment, except in sense and sight. The eternal light with which childhood fills the world would be extinguished. Not believe in Santa Claus! You might as well not believe in fairies! You might get your papa to hire men to watch in all the chimneys on Christmas Eve to catch Santa Claus, but even if they did not see Santa Claus coming down, what would that prove? Nobody sees Santa Claus, but that is no sign that there is no Santa Claus. The most real things in the world are those that neither children nor men can see. Did you ever see fairies dancing on the lawn? Of course not, but that's no proof that they are not there. Nobody can conceive or imagine all the wonders there are unseen and unseeable in the world. You may tear apart the baby's rattle and see what makes the noise inside, but there is a veil covering the unseen world which not the strongest man, nor even the united strength of all the strongest men that ever lived, could tear apart. Only faith, fancy, poetry, love, romance, can push aside that curtain and view and picture the supernal beauty and glory beyond. Is it all real? Ah, VIRGINIA, in all this world there is nothing else real and abiding. No Santa Claus! Thank God! he lives, and he lives forever. A thousand years from now, VIRGINIA, nay, ten times ten thousand years from now, he will continue to make glad the heart of childhood. | Is There a Santa Claus? Editorial in The (New York) Sun Written by Francis P. Church September 20, 1897 |

Happy Christmas
The reason so much of humanity commemorates this day is that so much of humanity seeks to give and receive love. During this holy time, know that all times are holy, that every religion holds truth, that each tradition is sacred, and that it is in the simple sharing of love that we make our beliefs come alive, and our dreams come true. Let this Christmas Day remind us that Christ came to invite us to offer love to all humankind, and to open the door of God's kingdom to every soul. Merry Christmas, everyone.

Happy Solstice!
Mood:
a-ok
Topic: Musings
Winter Solstice—the longest night of the year. Today, in our Wiccan mythology, the sun is reborn. Each year the Great Mother labors through the long night to give birth again to the new year, to hope and light. This year the darkness has intense. The bright hopes of last year are worn and tattered from obstructions and betrayals and compromise. Our personal health and the health of all the life support systems of the planet hang in balance, and how can we tell whether we’ve inched forwards or been sucked back into deals and appeasements worse than what went before. Last year we hoped for an end to war—this year we see war escalate. Last year we chose a road of change; this year it looks only too much like the same old road we were on before. But the message of Solstice is this: hope does not come once into the world and fulfill itself. Hope and light must constantly be reborn, over and over again. They wax and wane, and must be renewed. That renewal, that birthing, requires labor. Labor means work, commitment, perseverance through that time when it seems you just can’t push any more. The cervix dilates slowly, pang by pang. The child begins to emerge, is drawn back, pushed forward another increment. We are the laboring Mother, we are the spark of light. New possibilities kick and squirm within us. No, it’s not easy to bring them forth, but we are strong, and we are made for this work. Bear down…breathe…push. This morning the sun rises; each day a new world is born. www.starhawksblog.org
