The Oracle is still wandering with the moon.

I usually get up between around 6 am, and I’ve been photographing the sky out my windows, front and back, for a few months now. Last week was only the second time I’ve seen it out the kitchen window at that time.

The very next morning it was out front, to the south, as usual.
between never and spring
roots cycle thick beneath earth
listen
trees sing of always
and birds climb winter wind
into this wandering moonlit dawn
walk here
amidst the deep season
of sacred now

I think the moon’s influence is strong right now!

This is so beautiful, Kerfe, and I love your top painting.
I didn’t go out to see the moon this morning, so thank you for the photos!

You’re welcome! Someday I’ll investigate the why of the moon’s wanderings. I never know where and when she will appear. I’m glad for some clearer weather at least, so I can see her.

the moon has been incredibly large here, when we catch a glimpse between all the rain clouds … this art and poem feel so sacred!

Thanks Kate. We’ve had quite a bit of rain here too–so seeing the moon a few nights in a row was quite a treat!

Wonderfully beautiful and hopeful… They feel like the perfect response to the absence of Thich Nhat Hanh. The teaching is all here.

Thanks Sun. I think we have all absorbed those teachings whether we realize it or not.

They do, and it’s good to remember it in the depths of winter.

and I particularly like your soft, impressionist photographs – love the smudges and particles around the moon in the second image – painterly stuff!

Thanks Phil. I think it was the window in the second one. The first was a misty morning. But I’m never quite sure with photos.
