The Still of the Dark Moon

This beautiful photo taken days ago sitting with swans at sunset. Still swooning.

But first, the dark moon and the deep dreaming that accompanies her solitude. Today is the day for foolproof relinquishing, permanent banishing and unhurried inspiration as your wisdom bubbles up from the depths of the dark cauldron. Ever a moment for watching not acting - within and without - and sweet overdue rest. If it feels like you're pushing the proverbial uphill, it is only because you are fighting a biological imperative to lay in wait for the rush of energy that accompanies this night's new moon. Until then, stillness is the name of the game. A dark moon done well is its own reward.
