Meditating on sage smoke How it curls How it hastens and slows. A sip of coffee and a whiff of sage Cool morning warm breath. Just a morning in my body And how is it October already? What creased my brow and occupied my forehead was yesterday This peace is like a forgiving, forgetting slumber All the little darts and arrows I thought pierced me I take them out, I heal it all With a wave of my mind I turn them into sticky darts and I let them lose their grip See them all slide off I breathe into the spaces My body is un-pierced once again No pointy edges From now on.

new moon thoughts

9:28 a.m. Drill down into the single building blocks, the one single brick that makes up a life, that makes it whole and complete. Being thankful, feeling genuine gratitude for each and every component. Each healthy minute. You don't even have to say thank you. Just feel deeply grateful. A new and fresh look at life on the virgo new moon. Intention is when your heart and mind align. [heart: what your inner compass points to] [mind: what your conditioning accepts / is able to comprehend and visualize] Prayer is your heart's business. Goals are your mind's business. In meditation, what matters is coming back to your center. Your spinal axis. Dancing on a new moon hits differently. So I did just that. Tea smells better. Food tastes more delicious. "Perky" I hope it's the same for everyone today.
