The Great Medicinal Wheel turns to the North, the season of the festival of lights
the turn of the season a liminal time
of astrological alignment, reflection, and commitment
May we feel the energy of the North
and gratitude for the deep rest of the natural world
May we return to that which
illuminates love-light
the radiance of the celestials
flicker of candle light, twinkle of star light, sparkle of bird light
the beauty of holiday lights farolitos luminarias
an oil lamp on the table, a menorah, a candle in the window
May we be bright lights
of compassion, generosity, and kindness
wayfarers, light bearers
luminous, radiant in this present moment.
