The Night Is My Companion… Solitude My Guide

What’s Really Going On…

We just had a holiday.  I’ve just come back from Europe and now in the middle of a second family gathering this weekend. People are talking about Black Friday, Small Business Saturday, shopping for December and discounted this and that and those other things.

It’s possible I should be doing something related to that with all of you, but that’s just not where I’m at.

This season has me.  I’m deep in the shedding, deep in the embodied power that exists underneath the imposed veils, and deep in a Knowing that is kind of beginning to rock my personal world.

THIS is the work of this season for me.  I imagine that in some part it is the same for you.

So here’s what I’ve got today:  another song.  Because the lyrics are magick, they are the experience of the in-between… they are Lillith, death, sex and rebirth for me.  They are a reflection of remembering who I am right now as I continue moving forward, while the meaningless dross falls to the way side.

Possession

by Sarah Mclachlan

Listen as the wind blows from across the great divide
voices trapped in yearning, memories trapped in time
the night is my companion, and solitude my guide
would I spend forever here and not be satisfied?

And I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I’ll take your breath away
and after, I’d wipe away the tears
just close your eyes dear.

Through this world I’ve stumbled
so many times betrayed
trying to find an honest word to find
the truth enslaved.
Oh you speak to me in riddles
and you speak to me in rhymes
my body aches to breathe your breath
your words keep me alive.

And I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I’ll take your breath away
and after, I’d wipe away the tears
just close your eyes dear.

Into this night I wander
it’s morning that I dread
another day of knowing of
the path I fear to tread.
Oh into the sea of waking dreams
I follow without pride
nothing stands between us here
and I won’t be denied.

And I would be the one
to hold you down
kiss you so hard
I’ll take your breath away
and after, I’d wipe away the tears
just close your eyes…

 

May your continued Dreaming, Divining, Resting and Magick be deeply transformative this week.  I’ll reach out again soon with some changes and news about upcoming boxes.

Blessings,
Elena
