Happy Beltane…
via Happy Beltane…
Little did I know…
This child of Africa…
As I danced around the Maypole with my fair-skinned…elementary-school-classmates…that we were…indeed…performing the ancient Beltane Ceremony of Fertility and Sexuality…
I wonder if the New York City Board of Education knew…?
Happy Beltane to all of my wild…fair-skinned-East Village-sisters who later taught me to worship the Mother…the changing seasons…and an Inner Wildness that cannot be contained by the flesh…
Ase and Goddess bless us all…

I weep…
Not because I do not feel the DIVINE PRESENCE flowing within…
But because I do…
These tears I shed…
Are tears of ECSTASY…

I…as you…am a mere mortal working diligently to maintain balance and equilibrium in a world gone berserk…the only thing preventing me from flying apart into a million confused pieces is Time spent with the Ancestors…hours communing with my Spirit Guides…and seeking Divine Counsel from my Family which art on the Other Side of Life…
I have thus discovered the antidotes to STRESS…FEAR…and ANXIETY…The three causes of all that ails us…throwing our bodies…minds…and souls out of kilter…and into states of disease…imbalance…and despair…
STRESS…One may replace all traces of STRESS…with PEACE…
One may…indeed…achieve a “peace beyond understanding…”a lasting PEACE that remains with one throughout the day…by simply beginning each day in quiet prayer…journaling…and in Meditative Contemplation in one’s Sacred Space…
This daily time of SILENCE…surrounded by Living Spirit then becomes one’s anchor in this life…one’s “church…”one’s “religion…”
One’s antidote to STRESS…
FEAR…the “mind-killer…” cannot exist in the same space with LOVE and GRATITUDE…
And so…one must remain mindful each moment of each day of what one is feeling…
Mindful…of the Energy that one is projecting out into the world with every thought…word…and action…
Are you responding to the world with LOVE…? Or with ridicule and judgment…?
Do you give when and where you see a need that you can fulfill…?
Are you living each day mindful of the healing power of LOVE…?
Are you immersing yourself in loving Energy whenever…wherever…and with whomever you can…?
One finds that FEAR all but disappears in the abundance of LOVE…pouring naturally…Un-summoned…from one’s heart into the world…
LOVE is then proven to be an inherent…intrinsic…inborn antidote to FEAR…
ANXIETY…once you have accepted the Reality that you did not create yourself…it then follows that there must exist…in some Realm or Other…THAT WHICH CAUSED YOU INTO BEING…
Whatever It may be…
By Whatever Name called…
It then follows that this Creative Intelligence…that created you…knows why It has created you…
Therefore…
Your only job is to learn why you are here…
The Purpose in your being human on planet Earth…
It then becomes easy to relax into your life…whatever it may look like at any given moment…with the TRUST that your CREATOR will show you the reason for your BEING…
You can then put one trusting…faithful foot before the other as you step carefully through the most troubling and fearful times…
Knowing that THAT WHICH CAUSED YOU INTO BEING…also knows what It is doing with your life…
Right here…Right now…Step by step…Walk in faithful knowing…
Live your life with TRUST…
The antidote to ANXIETY…
Ase and Goddess bless us all.
