The New Moon & the New Earth

Dear Sangha Cafe Friends:

Gliding toward the Dark of the Moon--the invisible & the unknown--that silvery cosmic slip of a ship wanes like a fingernail paring of wax adrift on warming waters of the April nights . . .

Along terraces of the vegetable garden here in Paradise, that planetary power, the irresistibly strong force of Life itself shoots up green leaves & stalks, growing swiftly every day. I swear, the corn can virtually be SEEN growing, it shoots so rapidly up toward the hot blue sky of daytime! Now in the early morning predawn hush, where I've searched for the rapidly-waning Moon in vain, that green energy sleeps & dreams . . . yet it never stops! Abiding, it persists.

Even in the seed that may lie dormant a year, or many years, the potency of Life remains ever coiled. It only awaits encouragement, moisture, light, to germinate, spring forth yet again, & flourish toward fruition & return. At a time when some are looking toward the year 2012 for a shift, why wait? It's happening now! Many seem to buy into the fear-mongering that suggests there's something "out there" that threatens you, that you cannot control. Why buy into that?

It's all happening within you! You cannot really control anything, yet when you truly surrender to what IS (which is NOT the same as resignation!) then your choices, when you act, become empowered, effective, & wise. With the New Moon, let's accept the invitation of the Divine to plant our intentions deep in the rich soil of our hearts.

Peace & Namaste,
