hiding no more

snap dragons

Hiding…

was the theme

hiding from where

hiding from whom

 

Inner girl alive and present

too long now

hidden

in dark chambers

 

All is here

no distance between

all time over-lays

what paths do we choose

 

Lost in futures

decisions made

lost to people

too afraid

 

Memories stand

solid as steel

towering shadows

no-more make-believe

 

Emotions tell

of long-lost stories

hidden treasures

time for exploring

 

No shame

in being you

pure and simple

adornments not needed

 

Hide and seek

no-longer a game

hiding from strangers

seeking love

 

What is future

more of past

a golden key

unlocks the door

 

Memories sweet

held within

lots of searching

for myself

 

All the tears

fill like rivers

running swiftly

momentum building

 

Allusive dreams

hidden memories

emotions tell

of their releasing

 

All is here

no then or now

all is one

time for love

 

Love is real

Love is Love

Love is wanting

to be loved

 

Not the time… for hiding now

The Truth Seeker… and the Witch

P1000033

A Full Moon on Friday the 13th.  It’s a Sagittarius Full Moon.  Sag is ruled by Jupiter… King of the Gods. The God of Sky and Thunder.  The King of Heaven and Earth.  His sacred animal the Eagle, his personality is jovial, expansive and generous.  A Truth Seeker, a traveller of distant places, both inner and outer.

jupiter-god-3

With the Sun in Gemini… does our mind reveal the truth?  The bigger picture, life on Earth for all human beings.  A gateway to a higher perspective.  Mercury and Jupiter both in Cancer.  Our home, our family, our foundations become the focus.  Imbued with emotion, a need for nurturing and caring.

Hermes was messenger of Zeus, messenger of the gods.  Is the message clear, or does it become distorted… a need to know.

Jupiter crowns the chart for this Sag Full Moon,  here in Oz (Sydney time).  Sitting in his own house, he’s extra empowered.  His bountiful nature is obvious for all to see.  His desire to uncover the truth plays out in view of all.  He brings great fortune to public affairs.  The truth is revealed.

Juno… the Queen of Heaven.  Married to Zeus/Jupiter, oversees the cycles of a woman’s life.

juno1

She’s the patroness of marriage and partnerships… especially legal unions.  She is wise in the ways of working with men.  She knows her own power… she reveals our own personal power.  She sits in the house of partnerships.

Venus… our glorious Aphrodite also siting in the house of partnerships and unions, brings her love and beauty, her harmony and balance.  Both these bountiful Goddesses, sitting in Taurus, direct their focus to Mother Earth, highlighting our need for secure foundations… reliable resources, a lasting future.  Comfort and ease the birthright of all.

aphrodite

Sitting on the western horizon, the house of partnership, is the Path of Fortune.  We are all in this together.  True partnerships, are the way.  Good fortune in forming alliances.

Scorpio sits on the eastern horizon… intense and passionate motivations create the path forward.  There’s a mighty power in passion.  Saturn shows us how… slow and steady we build our future, solid and lasting.  Moon reveals our deepest values.

Doorway to our ‘higher awareness’ is through service… giving freely of our skills and talents.  Uranus sitting with the Vertex… a point of karmic or fated connection.  Pay attention to the messages and the messengers.  Brilliant flashes possible.

The jewel in the crown, a diamond… a Grand Earth Trine.  Goddess of Wisdom Pallas Athene, God  of the Underworld Pluto… and the Path of Fortune, all supporting Earth’s future.

Pallas Athene, daughter of Zeus/Jupiter was her father’s favourite.  She came fully dressed as a warrior, boots and all, out of the head of her father (a unique male birthing process?).  She’s blessed with great wisdom,  she’s a master strategist.  She’s a warrior girl.  She understands higher processes, she’s also Goddess of the Healing Arts.  She’s strong, she knows no fear.  Her wisdom is bountiful… her guidance a blessing.

And of course… dear old Pluto.  Currently creating so much upheavel!

Hades

Yes, he can be daunting… but his focus is on life and living.   Gathering up all that’s dead and dying he places them on the funeral pile… watching them burn.  Rich compost for new life and growth.  In the house of communications,  he brings a deep and probing mental clarity.  He’s a powerful communicator.

Mother Earth is supported by their combined energy.  Magick created.

So… a Full Moon in Sagittarius on Friday the 13th.  The Truth Seeker and the Witch come together.  Wisdom, Power and Good Fortune.  Looks like this Friday the 13th might be a good one.

It’s also a bit of a family affair… Jupiter, Juno and Pallas, father, wife and daughter.  A  lot of power in this family.

Wishing you a happy Full Moon on this Witches day.

what on earth is happening?

IMG_6209

                                                                     ‘Recent Full Moon in Scorpio’

 

To say it’s been big times is a gross under-valuation.  I’m not sure that we’ve experienced anything like this before.  Of course… we live in this time and space, each unique.

There’s not much history on the changing of Ages.  Well, my history knowledge is limited.  What were people feeling when they were experiencing that transition?  What was the build up, and what was the release?  And were people even aware that an Age was changing… maybe many moons back, like the Mayans.  Even the history writers may not recognise what’s really happening.  One thing is finishing and another is beginning.  It’s not just what people do, but what do they feel, how has their awareness changed?  Has there been a shift in the collective consciousness?  We are, after all… sentient beings.

Learning to be who I am.  Eager to be reunited with myself.  So much happening around me… close.  Something big is happening in Lindesay Creek.  I knew as soon as the word was spoken.  But something amazing is also being activated.  It fills my heart with gladness, such a connection I’ve felt with the Original Australians.  The battle field has become closer… but so has the magick and the medicine.  Something magickal is about to happen.

The intensity of this current energy can and will affect us in different ways.  Of course we never lose sight of ourself, even when it appears we’ve gone away.  We need to hold to our core, that part we know is at the centre of our being.  We know… we feel it, we just don’t often have the words to express it.

We are human beings… created from the Earth and the Stars.  We are children of the one omnipotent and omnipresent Creative Life Force/God.  We are children of the Light.  We can forget but we cannot undo.

As I make my way through this time… what I need becomes more and more apparent.  My personality steps aside, myself needs to speak.  Yes these are very big times.  There is no way of standing still.

Everything is perfectly created… everything is perfectly planned… everything is wonderful… every moment is magick.

Mars is Stationary Direct

IMG_9800

Right at this moment, Mars is standing still… beginning a new cycle of forward movement.  He’s been meandering around the halls of memories for a while.  But he’s had his time there, he’s been rearing to get going.  He’s not one for too much reminiscing or long sleeps on the day bed, he likes to keep moving… keep the energy circulating.

He moved into stationary position at 11.32 am yesterday (19th here in east coast Oz).  Mars standing still is pretty concentrated energy.  I’ve been feeling fevery and fluey last couple of days… and soooo tired.  Mars long visit in Libra, has certainly been energising our mental bodies and highlighting the way we relate with others… and during the last few months, in an introspective manner.

Mars is not known to feel too comfortable in Libra, Libra is ruled by Venus… I guess they either get on or they don’t.  Venus is pretty powerful, she’s just not going to let any old Mars crash her space.  There are rules.  And they will be obeyed, no discussion.

But gosh she does it in such a beautiful way… who could say no.  She is Aphrodite after all.

Mars will remain stationary until tomorrow (21st)… then move into direct forward motion.   At the same time it stationed 11.32am!  The most concentrated time is the first 24hrs.  We’re currently soon to move out of this intense space.

As Mars stations and moves forward…  Astraea, the Goddess of Justice… the last immortal to leave the Earth… sits at the Aries Point.  Aries being the home ground of Mars.  The Aries Point is quite fascinating.

IMG_5929

The Aries Point is found at 0 degrees Cardinal signs… Aries. Cancer, Libra and Capricorn, it’s a highly charged and sensitive point.  These points correlate with the four quarter points of the year… the beginning of the seasons, the Summer and Winter Solstices and Spring and Autumn Equinoxes.  It’s a point where the Sun and Earth connect, a kind of Sun/Earth Node.

The Cardinal signs are known for their forward thrust, their desire for action and movement… they like to initiate and organise new enterprises, directly and decisively.  They’re the doers, the initiators.

As Cardinal energy, the Aries Point moves from inward to outward, from personal to public.  A planet or angle (ie Ascendant etc) aspecting the Aries Point is pushed into prominence, it’s noticed by the public.  It’s brought into public prominence.  For good or not so good… these personal traits gain notoriety.

So with this Mars Stationary Direct energy… Astraea sits at the Aries Point.

Astraea, the Goddess of Justice… after leaving Earth turned into the constellation of Virgo.  She donated her scales to Libra.  She’s a symbol of integration and wholeness… either in an ideal state, or one that requires restoration to the whole .  There is something sublime about her idealism which doesn’t always sit comfortably in the ‘real’ world.

She’s known to have a relationship with the cellular, atomic and subatomic planes… she understands the ‘wholeness’ of concepts.  Lucky Virgo inherited a lot of her wisdom.

So what does that mean… as our planet of action, desire, movement and pure energy moves forward again and Astraea sits at this very prominent point.

Is it a time to change the focus of our direction… take our attention from the most obvious, the physical manifestations before us and delve a little deeper?  If not with our minds, then explore with our feeling.  What is Life?  How does it operate?  What is really happening?  What part do we play in it?  What is our purpose, why are we here?  How does this universe function… and how does that relate to us?

I’m personally a great fan of physics… but that’s just my kind of brain.  But we can touch life in the most natural way… we can feel what is happening around us.  We need to activate this sense,  it’s been pushed to the back of the room, it needs to take its rightful place.

Our ability to feel, is a powerful resource.  When we feel, we can know… the most incredible complexities.

Maybe it’s time… to change the focus and direction of our movement, the way we use our energy.

Maybe it’s time to look at ‘Life’ a little closer, understand its motivations, its direction… it’s beauty, its divinity….  it’s pure Magick…  maybe.

 

lotsa luv

The Nimbin Good Times

The May edition of The Nimbin Good Times… is now online for your reading….  http://www.nimbingoodtimes.com

sometimes you just have to do…

The story continues… BIG day yesterday. Channel 7 Prime News were here at Mahalia.  Not the normal happenings… AT ALL!!

I’m a private person, I like to keep a low profile… not sure how that will proceed with the part of me that wants recognition for what I do, my work.   Somewhere, somewhere… a solution will appear.  I couldn’t say ‘no’, the human in me wouldn’t allow it.   Jeremy Buckingham, Member of the Legislative NSW Parliament MLC, asked if I would be willing to speak to the press.  He was quick to call back, after his office received my email.  It was a copy of the letter I’d received from NAB, informing me of the ‘Additonal Conditions And Endorsements Applying To The Policy’ …..

“As Per Allianz Underwriting Guidlines Cover To Be Cancelled Once A Coal Seam Gas Installation Is Started At The Risk Address’    (yes that ‘Risk’ address is mine!!!)

If CSG arrives my insurance is void.  My property will be considered a high risk.

I felt I had a moral responsibility… and that people needed to be aware of this.  I wouldn’t have called the press myself… but then, it did cross my mind when I first found out, nearly a year ago now.

Living during this time, in a world in chaos, fear and revolution… even our beloved Australia has caught the dreaded disease.  But I’m a human being, I need to live aligned with my values and principles… otherwise, I too sell my soul to the devil, accept a Faustian Bargain.

I live near a small village, which has a long history of voting conservatively.  I’m sure it was different years back, the Country Party represented the people from the bush. Country people have different lifestyles to their city friends. It was necessary for them to have a voice.  It’s understandable that politicians living a city lifestyle would be unfamiliar with the needs of their rural constituents.

But it’s not like that now. The Country Party is no more, it’s now the Nationals and a part of the Liberals. A completely different story emerges.

It appears almost like we’re living through the ‘last days’, where corruption, greed, lies and downright illegal activities fill our parliamentary chambers.  Of course, not all (well hopefully not)… but the nature of a disease is that it’s often contagious, affecting those who were previously untainted.

I know… I was part of a great epidemic, the Polio epidemic in the 1950’s. It was extremely contagious, those unfortunate to ‘catch’ the dreaded disease were locked away in contagious wards… medical staff masked and protected, keeping their distance.  No visitors allowed.

So yes, I have some experience with a disease that spreads.

How did this disease start, and where has it spread?  How do human beings, born from divinity itself, a heart that knows right from wrong… how do they succumb, how do they allow others to drag them down to the lowliest of places, how?

Well we could discuss that for far too long.  It happens… ignorance?  Confusion, distraction, medication (fluoride, press, advertising and TV, chemicals in food, water and air…. the list goes on).  Yes, we’ve become a medicated lot.

Now, the battle, the fight to remain who we are… human beings, created from divine stuff.  A human life, so precious… only one we get to experience.  We can’t take anything with us… we can’t go back in time, or to the future… not in our body.

What does it take, to be true to oneself?  What will we allow, in the name of ‘progress’.  We’ve forgotten our own strength, we’ve forgotten who we are.  We’re not cattle, we’re not sheep… we’re a human being. ‘Made in the image of God’.  What happened?  Where did we go wrong?  How can we stop the flood of destruction, the evil intent contaminating, the ignorance, the confusion.

Yes these are big times.  I’ve said it many times before.  I knew it was coming, I had the vision back in 2007.  I ‘heard’ it, I could feel it approaching.  I knew a mighty change was upon us.  And I knew it was important to do what I’d been putting off.  It was clear, even then… that the time is ‘now’.

Technology has helped us greatly… but unfortunately has also overwhelmed us.  We’ve become used to the destruction, the inhumanity, the violence, the control, the corruption.  Maybe we’ve watched too many movies, too much TV.  We’ve lost our sensitivity to what is not acceptable.  We’ve become hardened to others pain.  There’s just so much of it, constantly in front of us… no wonder people escape with alcohol and drugs.  Our systems have become inhuman… we’ve lost the plot completely.

Oh yes, there are human amongst us, speaking the truth and trying, trying to hold up the battle weary crew on the front line.  But unfortunately there’s not enough… we all need to hop on board.

We’re only being asked to do what we can do… yes, maybe stretch a bit, beyond the usual comfort zone. Not too far as to endanger ourself.  But a little bit done by all of us, actions and words that support the magnificence of the human creation, this sensational Planet Earth…the beauty, the kindness, the sharing… the consciousness.

It’s time… to stand up and be who you are.
