Waxing Buddha’s Full Moon*
– Inviting the Desirable

(*exact Wednesday May 10th 5:42 pm edt
at 20+ Scorpio-Taurus…Woo-hoo)
Back-stage – On-stage commerce, the Halloween of Spring
(and for those in the Southern Hemisphere, the fecund aspect
of Dark Mystery…) incarnational invitation cahooting time
So, if there is any navigational yearning/desire
for some tangible wondrous great beautiful
woofy improvement in our personal lives –
Now, would be the time
to communicate that desire to the spirit of
originating Yip-Yip and Woof-Woof,
(or however one chooses to address the Divine)
via ritual play…..
Remembering a ritual is not a superstitious
obeisance to some arcane practice that may have
lost its originating liberating guiding…
but
any physical actions we perform,
that we imbue with symbolism….
“By the placing of (fill in the blank)
(these flowers, this picture etc.) may this bound
from back-stage desirable to on-stage manifest!”

Love’s Altar (Walter Crane)
Altars are really any playfully intentional
arrangement of “things” that we animate
with a guiding invocative story…..


Mercury and Uranus are conjoining
at the “Bursting with gifts” degree.
So, Trickster be calling all of our bluffs,
to experiment in these realms…
Saying, “really, you say you want this thing
– so where’s your altar?”
No altar, no desire for anything but a
“yearning disability,’ – so, no fair complaining,
no more waily-waily about such and such,
if not willing to do the playful
(no expectation – but willingness)
magical art…

So many “Co-operators are standing by!”-
Saturn’s Sabian is a sculptor breathing life into an art…
in irresistible quintile cahooting with Jupiter
– the realm of Story-Craft.
We are invited to put the word “Craft,” in back of anything
to which we are dedicated… Remembering that craft means
“power gleaned from dedication.”
The Moon is again animating “A person in deep gloom,
unnoticed a glowing circle of angels surrounds them…”
So we gather to be the glowing circle of angels
to encourage our gloomy selves,
to give everything one more experimental try.
Luna (Nicolas Dorigny)
Blessing everything with compassionate
accepting encouragement.
Let’s do this together tonight/this week:
Tossing all disapproval and self-disparagement,
be-spelling into the cauldron….
then animating, however we are, wherever we be, as a blessing…
encouraged to love the “soft animal of our bodies.”
“What a perfectly great body you are!”
