A Love Letter to the Moon

Dear Moon

Oh, how I adore thee!

As you sit with such majestic grace on high.

When I am lost

All I need do is turn my gaze

Up to your gentle

Benevolent smile

And I know

Know I am held

Seen

Loved

Cared for.

In this moment

Everything

Absolutely everything

Can be alright.

You teach me of boldness,

Of gathering the masculine arrogance of the Sun

Reflecting it back in a softer

Less harsh way

Yet no less the powerful for it.

In your hidden face

You give me courage to reach deep

Deep into my own womb wisdom

To retreat to the cave

So the speech of the ancestors may once more find voice.

Your beauty and benignity have held me steady my whole life.

Where would we be without you dear Moon?

We place our human flaws at your door

For good and for ill,

Still you show up for us

Still you silently guide us

You only ever reveal the truth of what we are.

In your fullness you show us our darkness

In your darkness you offer up the space for us to shine more brightly.

Each and every month you invite us

Gently lay a hand upon our hearts

Say it is okay.

Like the Moon

I can begin anew.

There is always

Always

The room to start again.

I know these words barely touch on all you share with us

My mind can only speak

Of what sits on the surface

For this and for how we connect to the dark side

The always unseen side

Communicates in an ancient Songline

Not seen with the human eye but

Felt by the Soul of All.

My love always

E
