    Sleeping In The Forest
    ~~~~~by Mary Oliver
    I thought the earth remembered me,
    she took me back so tenderly,
    arranging her dark skirts, her pockets
    full of lichens and seeds.
    I slept as never before, a stone on the river bed,
    nothing between me and the white fire of the stars
    but my thoughts, and they floated light as moths
    among the branches of the perfect trees.
    All night I heard the small kingdoms
    breathing around me, the insects,
    and the birds who do their work in the darkness.
    All night I rose and fell, as if in water,
    grappling with a luminous doom. By morning
    I had vanished at least a dozen times
    into something better.

  • Healing by Danna Faulds

    Healing

    by Danna Faulds

    There is healing in the laying on of hands;
    in the letting go of fear, in asking for help,
    in silence, celebration, prayer. There is
    healing in speaking the truth and in keeping
    still, in seeking sunlight and not shunning
    struggle. Laughter and the affirmation of
    wholeness hold their own healing.  When
    the soul dances, when the day begins in
    delight, when love grows and cannot be
    contained, when life flows from moment
    to moment, healing happens in the space
    between thoughts, and the breath before
    the first sung note.  Healing is a birthright
    and a grace.   When we dare to be open to
    the unknown, when we extend ourselves
    in caring, when we welcome in the vast
    expanse of life, healing comes from the
    heart, and blossoms from the inside out.

  • Today’s Magickal Music

    Happy Friday!!!  :-)  I hope you are planning a wonderful weekend! 

    Our first magickal music musing was about Heart's "Magic Man."  Thanks to those of you who posted some replies and thoughts about who/what the sound reminded you of magickally!  Everyone's ideas were right on! There is, of course, no right or wrong answer – the right answer is the one that is right for you.

    For me personally that song always reminds me of Papa Legba because  to me he IS the magic man… for without him, no magic gets done!  I also like the little implication of the trickster, but in a good way – like he mesmerizes you and you love it!  ;-)  However, certainly the thoughts of other male lwa easily come to mind – Ogoun, the Baron (also with his slick, sexy ways), etc.  So good answers one and all!

    Today's song for discussion is "Magic Carpet Ride" by Steppenwolf!  I had a lot of fun putting my thoughts together on this one regarding what and whom this song brought to mind for me!  I will share them after I hear from all of you!  Can't wait to hear what lwa, product, or spell this brings to your mind! 🙂

    Lyrics:

    I like to dream yes, yes, right between my sound machine
    On a cloud of sound I drift in the night
    Any place it goes is right
    Goes far, flies near, to the stars away from here

    Well, you don't know what we can find
    Why don't you come with me little girl
    On a magic carpet ride
    You don't know what we can see
    Why don't you tell your dreams to me
    Fantasy will set you free
    Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
    Let the sound take you away

    Last night I held Aladdin's lamp
    And so I wished that I could stay
    Before the thing could answer me
    Someone came and took the lamp away
    I looked around, a lousy candle's all I found

    Well, you don't know what we can find
    Why don't you come with me little girl
    On a magic carpet ride
    Well, you don't know what we can see
    Why don't you tell your dreams to me
    Fantasy will set you free
    Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
    Let the sound take you away

    Don't know what we can find
    Why don't you come with me little girl
    On a magic carpet ride
    You don't know what we can see
    Why don't you tell your dreams to me
    Fantasy will set you free
    Close your eyes girl, look inside girl
    Let the sound take you away

    Love, light, and peace,
    Mambo Samantha Corfield

  • Morning Poem by Mary Oliver.

    Morning Poem


    Every morning
    the world
    is created.
    Under the orange

    sticks of the sun
    the heaped
    ashes of the night
    turn into leaves again

    and fasten themselves to the high branches —
    and the ponds appear
    like black cloth
    on which are painted islands

    of summer lilies.
    If it is your nature
    to be happy
    you will swim away along the soft trails

    for hours, your imagination
    alighting everywhere.
    And if your spirit
    carries within it

    the thorn
    that is heavier than lead —
    if it's all you can do
    to keep on trudging —

    there is still
    somewhere deep within you
    a beast shouting that the earth
    is exactly what it wanted —

    each pond with its blazing lilies
    is a prayer heard and answered
    lavishly,
    every morning,

    whether or not
    you have ever dared to be happy,
    whether or not
    you have ever dared to pray.


    from Dream Work (1986) by Mary Oliver
    Wishing everyone a wonderful Sunday 🙂
    Love

  • Happy Friday the 13th!

    Happy Friday the 13th!

    Belief that Friday the 13th is an unlucky day is believed to be the most widespread superstition in the US.  According to the Stress Management Center and Phobia Institute in North Carolina, about 17 million people fear Friday the 13th.

    This year, there are THREE of them!   Each, exactly 13 weeks apart.

    Where did all of this fear stem from? It can be hard to tell. There is the basic idea that Friday is considered an unlucky day, and 13 is considered an unlucky number, put the two together, and you have a very unlucky day.

    Folklorists think the dread goes back at least a few centuries, and may well trace its roots all the way to Biblical times, when the 13th guest at the Last Supper betrayed Jesus and caused his Crucifixion, which was held on a Friday. Whatever the origin, by the late Middle Ages both Friday and the number 13 were considered bearers of misfortune. That potent combo, more than any specific association with the date, is what has deemed Friday the 13th unlucky.

    One study in the UK  showed that the actual amount of cars on the road was lower than normal, yet the accident rate was  much higher than normal.  Their conclusion – "Friday 13th is unlucky for some. The risk of hospital admission as a result of a transport accident may be increased by as much as 52 percent. Staying at home is recommended."

    Some folks believe this superstition to be hype and urban legend. Some folks choose to stay home and read a good book. However you choose to spend your Fridays the 13th this year, I wish you luck!

    Love
