SOLSTICE ADVENT – Day 6:

“Last night as I was sleeping,
I dreamt—marvelous error!—
that a spring was breaking
out in my heart.
I said: Along which secret aqueduct,
Oh water, are you coming to me,
water of a new life
that I have never drunk?

Last night as I was sleeping,
I dreamt—marvelous error!—
that I had a beehive
here inside my heart.
And the golden bees
were making white combs
and sweet honey
from my old failures.

Last night as I was sleeping,
I dreamt—marvelous error!—
that a fiery sun was giving
light inside my heart.
It was fiery because I felt
warmth as from a hearth,
and sun because it gave light
and brought tears to my eyes.”
( Antonio Machado )

We are liberated when we sleep. When we dream. When we DAY DREAM.
Free to WAKE fully TO OURSELVES

As we move deeper into the slumber of the dark season
Rest
Dream
Open your vision to hope, once again, and welcome into your heart
The waters of inspiration, of feelings, of the gifts the New Year brings…
The sweet honey of “failures” transformed…

REST
Dream
Wake
…and Let the sun give its light to warm your heart…
