Sister Moon

Thank you Sister Moon
–
Today I mark the passing of time by the 
Full Moons
–
As a child
I measured time by 
what grade I was in school-
As a farmer- 
I measured by the seasons-
Each summer was remembered by the
amount of water for irrigating, and the 
calves that were born that year, the 
size of the harvest, or 
what building was built that summer
As a mother I remember the years by 
my children’s births and their ages
–
–
Now I look back over time by the passing of each 
Full Moon –
With each moon I remember-
Who did I pray with?
What sacred land did my bare feet stand upon while 
I gazed up at the full moon’s beauty?
What ceremony did I co-create?
What lover did I worship the Goddess with?
What were my sacred prayers?
What lessons were learned?
And in the dark shadows of the moon phases-
With each New Moon
What seeds of intentions did I sew?
What was cleared out of the shadows of my consciousness?
–

I am grateful for my connection with the Moon,
her holy temple and
her connection with the Goddess 
She is a beautiful Teacher
Filled with wisdom, knowledge and truth –

Sister Moon
Thank you for 
shining your beauty upon me 
I honor you
I love you
I am grateful
