Goddess was the first word that the Oracle gave me this morning. The collage above is a very old one I named “sha/wo/man”–it’s a stitched collage. I did a few of them about 10 years ago. I don’t know where the original is, but I recently found a photo of it in my files.

I found Ishtar in my files also–a message from the Collage Box Oracle in 2019 with a very similar theme.

I am listening for
the language of the goddess–
dishonored and swept away
by linear time
nightwings remember when
our motherworld was a sacred song,
a home for voices belonging
to the spirits of stars
if only we could soar
the daysky on our dreams

Beautiful, Kerfe

This is lovely and in that enigmatic voice of the Oracle. Both you and Merril had birds and wings today. The cadralor is always disjointed but I had the mother, language, and a cormorant which I suppose counts as a bird!

It has wings! Each of us has a different part of the narrative, as is often the case.

I think we see the world the same way. The Oracle knows her audience.

We can bring them back. Envision enough and it shall be so. At our Clan Mothers meeting on Tuesday we were talking about just this. Our divine feminine goddess culture has been “dishonored and swept away / by linear time” but we can curl that line into a circle and into the “daysky again”. I love the Oracle speaking this truth to you and to the Clan Mothers.

That’s a great vision, to curl the line into a circle. I think there is a lot of movement in that direction, everywhere.

Wonderful stuff. Both the poem and the artworks conquer up the idea of the goddess beautifully.

We strain to hear, our wonder tamped down and compacted – By fear? Malaise?

I think the too-muchness of our digital world drowns out the voices that lie beyond it.

I share the Oracle’s and your wistfulness… I believe more of us are learning to speak that language again, and love doing my part for the revitalization efforts.

I hope that’s true Sun. If we all do a bit, it will add up.
