The Loosening Tides

 The loosening tides

The set of attachments coming and going

Coming in, going out

Flowing along with the moon

We notice

We become aware 

Then we can choose
To release or not
That which we hold onto so dearly

Depending on our readiness

To move to the next level

To take the next step

Allowing ourselves to be led

By something or someone 

Outside of us, inside of us

Usually a holy one

Who gently takes the tightly held

Reins from us as we open up and

Let go, surrender

We face the unknown

We want so much to be

Taken care of, to be steered

To be guided and loved

We accept our limitations

And humanness

Life becomes so simple

Just listening really to 

What we hear in the messages

The whisperings of Pythia

The Oracle of Delphi

The oracle of wherever we are

Right now

As we hear from below and above

We relax, we breathe, we calm

Interpreting the codes and the 

Sometimes confusing words or

Graphic images we see

We feel rather splendidly

Without complication or complexity

There it is

That’s what I have been told

Did you hear it?

That’s what I saw, did you?
Doesn’t matter, I did

Now, I know where to go

What to do, how to be

In this moment, in this time

Right now

Only to be ushered into another

Unknown place or space the 

Next moment in time

What peace!
