I'll be at the burn! Yay! I almost decided not to go, but I'm pulled by the desert energy and looking forward to working as a channel for the healing intelligence. I'm also looking forward to teaching a class on the sacred feminine.

i thank You God for most this amazing
day: for the leaping greenly spirits of trees
and a blue true dream of sky; and for everything
which is natural which is infinite which is yes

(i who have died am alive again today,
and this is the sun's birthday; this is the birth
day of life and love and wings: and of the gay
great happening illimitably earth)

how should tasting touching hearing seeing
breathing any--lifted from the no
of all nothing--human merely being
doubt unimaginable You?

(now the ears of my ears awake and
now the eyes of my eyes are opened)

e.e. cummings

May you be filled with loving kindness
May you be well
May you be peaceful and at ease
May you be happy

(From Buddaist text)

When I dare to be powerful, to use my strength in service of my vision, then it becomes less and less important whether I am afraid.

Audre Lourde

I look at this one often and it sits in my sacred space.
