Nothing is sure but that which uncertain;
What's evident to all is most obscure;
Only when snared in doubts can I be sure.
Only to enigmas, never to Logic's lure,
Knowledge surrenders, and draws back her curtain.

by Francois Villon

from:
*Ballade for the Contest at Blois*
(translated by W. Ashbless)

Dance, when you're broken open.
Dance, if you've torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance, when you're perfectly free.

Knowledge of the Stars

"The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts. The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins. The moon is a great nerve-center from which we quiver forever. Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time."

Spontaneity is the key
the best way IMHO to show your gratitude
is to feel it totally in your heart
and then allow your Spirit and Intuition to guide you
it matters not if you offer a song or a flower petal or a poem or a prayer
or if you raise your glass to give thanks
or leave offerings
what truly counts is your intention ...
follow your heart ..and listen to the suggestions of your Spirit Guide or Holy Guardian Angel.

Summer has come again.
Kindle a fire of love

the moist night.
Let passion overtake you.
Let passion possess you.
Dance all the night long.

Passion means:
To feel completely.
Go to the bottom of your passion.
Only then can you return.

Wear the blue of the evening sky,

The lady of the lake
Reflects your light.

As passion is spent,
A miracle occurs.
A pause. A silence. A tremor.
