The Night Sky

sam_dc

As darkness beckons, the anticipation builds
What will the celestial theatre bring tonight?
Will the stars shine bright, iridescent in their magic?
Or will it be a dark and moody affair, mystery abound,
questions arising of what lies behind the stormy clounds?
Who knows?
I sit and wait, searching the heavens for that first glimpse of life
As the setting sun disappears, so her counterpart rises
The Yin Yang pendulum of life is in play once more
Now is the time of Yin
Now is her time to shine
Mama Moon is translucent in her beauty
She is the conductor of the night sky
It's time!
The curtain rises and the show begins
I take my seat and look on in wonder,
as one by one the tiny jewels pop out of the darkness
'I'm here, look at me' the first star twinkles
Then suddenly the next appears, and the next
The heavens are alive again and I'm here to witness it
My head swivels back and forth as I take it all in
I want to savour this moment forever
Each crystal of light deserving of a piece of my attention
I lie back and offer up my gaze
A connection is made
A memory awakened
Of ceremonies of old, when the night sky was reverred
When she held all the answers
As more stars join the party, their dots begin to align
Majestic drawings slowly emerge from the dark canvas above
And the celestial gateways are thrown open
The Seven Sisters reign supreme
Glistening in unison
Calling to those ready to listen
They speak of long ago lands
Times forgotten
Yet through it all they've shared their wisdom
Steadfastly shining together
A message of sisterhood
Of unity
Of strength
Of what can be achieved when we work as one
With no divisions, no prejudices
No preconceived notions of right and wrong
When loves rules, anything is possible
So just for today, leave anger at the door
Step outside of the hatred and let our golden rays dissolve the fear
Stand in unison with hearts connected and feel the joy in being one
Just for today let intuition be your guide and let your heart's desires lead the way
For there is beauty in the knowing
When the eyes are open and the heart is pure, anything can be achieved
For even in the darkness, there is always a flicker of light to be found
