Another Passage, July 2024
Grace for a New Way
The Cancer new moon has been an opportunity for alignment in the deep nurturing embrace of the Great Mother. She whose love is the Creatrix of all things, all life, beckons us into her arms as we are entirely re-made.
Within the womb and well of this tenderness we begin a fresh cycle, taking tentative baby steps along trajectories that are uniquely and deliciously ours to explore.
Come out of the constant state of emergency created through misalignment. “Rest in my arms,” She whispers.
As trees dancing in the wind, firmly rooted into Gaia’s embrace, we can shed the prickly pretenses of not loving. Our wall of thorns melts, along with whatever shields we may have hung upon its branches. With the loss of this weight, we are lifted and carried, letting Her soothe our remaininng tethers to what was, our fears of what might be.
Far beyond ancient horizons we touch down, ever so gently. These waves are not those of storm or tsunami. Each ripple holds a caress of new blessings, uncomfortable though some might seem to old stories, worn and embellished with much telling.
Whatever the Solstice purge may have brought to our attention, its goal is not to stay, but to wash cleanly and clearly away.
