Possibilites Galore For 2011 New Year's Blessing

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!

Oh, my Dear Sweet Loves
New Years Eve is upon us!

Opportunity knocks.
Sit, listen to the sound of your Breath
Grounding toward Your Desires
For this coming Year.

Have you taken time to reflect?
What Passions are calling to you?
Are the seeds of your Dreams ready to be watered?
What have you done to close the doors that no longer serve you?

Let us Wash the slate, dust out the Cobwebs;
As the Sun sets we can release the old,
Creating Space for the New, the unknown.
Opening!
To the Mornings Light.

Let us align ourselves in Compassion,
Toward all Life.
May we be guided to Respect,
Those we presently call our Enemies.
Closing cycles of Fear and Hatred.
We Welcome 2011!

Let us Open our Hearts,
Hearing from this Sacred place.
May we learn to Listen,
Hearing our story in others voices.
Closing cycles of Self-Righteousness.
We Welcome 2011!

Let us Invite Love,
Being Present to the moments,
Not basing our reactions on Hurts of the Past.
May we be guided to our Truth.
Opening a cycle of Compassion and Kindness.
We Welcome 2011!

Let us Cultivate Communication
Clear, Honest
RE-membering that we are all One,
Opening a cycle of Peace.
We welcome 2011!

Let us Pray
In Gratitude,
In our Sorrow.
May our voices Ring out in shared Song,
With different tunes.
Opening a cycle of Tolerance.
We welcome 2011!

May we see the Abundance,
The Magic and Mystery.
May we be guided to our Highest Potent.
May we Honour our Gifts.
Share with those less fortunate.
May we Laugh, more then we Cry.
May we Sing out in Gratitude and Wonder.
YES, indeed we welcome 2011!
Come 2011, come Play with us, Be with us
Teach us the ways of Possibilities and Opportunity.

We sit these last hours with 2010
We give Thanks to all that we have learned~
The Growth, both Sorrowful and Joyful!
We Thank you 2010 ~ Good night.
We Welcome 2011, a New Day, a New Year.
We are Grateful for this New Moment in our Lives.
Welcome 2011.

Holding the Intention for All that what you desire brings great Joy. May Your Year be most Prosperous and Bright. Wishing you the Ordinary turned Extraordinary, Have a Healthy Year!

A Gift

Oh, Great Mother
Thank you for the gifts
You shared with me.
Gifts of Joy and silly-ness
That I was able to share with my daughter.

Great Mother,
Thank you for the gift,
Of a safe place to raise her,
A place so full of wonder
Mystery and Magic.
Thank you great Mother
For Raising us both in that
Little town.

Joy, what a state of Grace,
Sliding down a banister!
Great Mother, laughter springs
Full on from my body
Watching ~
Thank you Great Mother
For giving me the gift of McWirzy.

Check out this piece for it all to come together.

An Autumn Blessing

Oh, Mother Gaia,
As Night draws near
We give thanks for this day.
Equal Day and Night.

Oh, Mother Gaia,
We give thanks for the changing seasons.
You have given us an amazing Summer of warmth and play.
You gifted us with an abundance of growing things.
Both beauty and nourishment.
Thank you for all that was part of the passing season.

Oh, Mother Gaia,
We give you thanks for the light of day,
As we harvest your great bounty.
Offering you our work in service.
You prepare us now for going inward.
We give thanks for the great joy and colour that fills
Our world.

Oh, Mother Gaia,
Thank you for the gift of cycles and seasons.
We are honoured to witness, this cycle of death.
This opportunity to RE-member our death and rebirth.
Thank you Mother Gaia, for your great wisdom.

Thank you Father Sky
As our nights become longer,
A time to dream and reflect.
Stillness, BE-ing.
Guide us on our journey.

Thank you Mother Gaia and Father Sky
May we raise our voices in song,
Welcome Autumn.
The Wheel continues to turn,
We are grateful.
Blessings this Autumn Equinox!

Flamingo Pink raising above the cityscape
The street light outside my window, out
Dawn is breaking
Birds laughing, some talking
Once again we wake
A new day
Ripe with Possibilities.

Let me feel Gratitude,
Invite my Fear to lift.
Oh, most Divine Universe,
I am Thankful for this day
That lies now before me.
What might I bring to this day
That will bring a shine, to the world?

I thank you for another day of Life
Guide me that I not squander it
In pettiness or gossip.
Let my voice sing out in Praise,
Lift up my heart,
Oh, most Divine Universe,
That I may honour this gift of today.

Oh, most Divine Universe,
Help me to pray 108, twice, three times
For the removal of what feels like
Insurmountable obstacles, for all beings.
Thank you for this day.
Thank you for hearing my plea,
Thank you for my own Divine Nature.

Goddess of Courage

Goddess of Courage,
Thank you for standing with me.
Some days feel so difficult to bare,
Goddess of Courage,
Guide me to my true Nature.
A Nature full of Laughter with myself.
Show me the ways of Compassion for myself
That in turn I may share with others.
Goddess of Courage,
Teach me that to care for myself is a Selfless Act.
I need to learn that I need to come first,
That I may then care for those in need.
Goddess of Courage,
Know that I am grateful for the obstacles I have walked.
I am beautiful to my eyes,
Help me shine bright that others may shine as well.
Goddess of Courage,
Thank you for walking with me.
May I continue to grow and serve.
Thank you, Goddess of Courage

Grateful for this very moment.

I breathe in,
Exhale slowly
Inhale all the love there is in the world
Exhale, I return to the Universe that which no longer serves me.
Inhale, I am grateful for this moment.
Exhale, I am grateful.
Each moment of Inhale and Exhale.
String together like pearls to make a moment.
Lager then the one before.
Staying in this one moment.
I invite it to become larger.
I am Grateful.
Each breath again a moment to give thanks
Through out my day.
Thank you, Breath of Life.
Thank you, Divine Nature.
Thank you, thank you self.

Autumn Love

The colours, the way the light has a crispness.
Harvest smells, the last cutting of grass.
Creator Spirit, thank you.
The wonder, beauty, and richness,
The gifts of so much stimulation to the senses.
Inviting us to inhale deeply, use our eyes,
Fill our memory banks.
Flex ourselves, before the Winter winds.
Creator Spirit,
Thank you for these gifts as the nights are long.
Grateful for the snap in the touch of air upon my skin.
I am alive.
Creator Spirit, thank you.






and thank you once again T. Griffin for the fabulous photo.

Safe travel.

Creator,
I ask Safe travel
All those in the air, sea and land.
Creator,
I ask for the winds to be following
For those in the air.
I ask you keep my child safe till
Once again, she is safe on the Belly.
Father Sky, keep those in the air.
Mother Earth, keep those in the water ways and ground.
Creator,
Safe travel for all, may you bless the journey.
No matter the travel, no matter the destination.
Safe travel, is my prayer.
