Blogiography

This is what I term a "blogiography": a simple list of what I have posted. I've now decided to sub-divide the list into:
  • photographs; 
  • shorrt stories; 
  • miscellaneous including humour; and 
  • poems.

I've posted [CW] to indicate a Content Warning below where I consider it merited. As mentioned in the header of this blog, I tend to "write out" negative states in poems, which is part of a self-therapy, and then go on with life and dealing with issues, etc - but it does mean the poems can be about distressing or upsetting matters. My short stories are often commentaries on the flaws of society - as are some poems - so, again, they can be about distressing or upsetting matters.

In due course I will also get those included in the titles of those posts as I continue to update this blogiography (although, given that I am adding these to years of posts, I will not provide much detail).


Photographs and sketches



Short stories

Miscellaneous (including humour)


Poems

The anti-life

In the midst of life ...
the anti-life; 

the greedy gaping maw
of corporate servitude.

Allow through

Better bend than break
Is not needed
If one is like
Water
Squeezed in the hand

Absorption

Living on the edge
Am I really as good
As I think I am?
If not
I lose – and so do those
Who rely on
Or are near
Me.
Do I wish to gamble
My and others wellbeing
On the strength of my arrogance, ego, and pride?

If I do,
Can my love be strong enough?
Can I resist the call of old ways?
Can I have
The terrifying cold fire
Of the Goddess’ absolute
Expectation of loving compassion
With no excuses, deceptions, or lies?

Redirected Absorption

I am drowning
in this flood
- do you have a dam
that can cope?

Surround and seige

People, places, ideas …
some are good
- they help us be
all our best;
some are not.
Isolate from the not
allows the best
to shine.

Poems from my colours and chakras exercise: Earth Star chakra

These poems were written as part of my “colours and chakras” exercise on my main (Paganism and spirituality) blog, for the Earth Star  chakra

Pink 

Love
- one colour of love
in this world
this rich, beautiful world …
What could be
more natural
than to love
this world of Nature?


Blue 

Under clearest blue sky
deepest green forests
rest, yet
surge in growth
and savour this pleasing day


Green 

In the season of growth,
green unfurls
as Life itself rises
from Mother Earth
and bursts forth
- honouring Life's potential.
In other seasons,
the potential is honoured
by protection and nurturement. 


Gold 

Gold is richness,
In life, richness is more life;
The gold of Sol's emanations,
helping crops and Life to grow.


Orange 

Life in harshness
may seem hard,
but oft it hides
strengths and unseen riches,
beauty and blessings,
wisdom and insights.

(Note: this is referring to physically harsh conditions, such as deserts and arid areas)


Purple 

Mother Earth
- Gaia
knows
the true royalty
is service to Life


Silver 

The Light of the Night
silvery, cool and fresh
specks in the dark
or a wide gentle glow
gives the Night
a comfortable warmth. 


Amber 

Suns shine
on many levels
- some within;
all gentle, heal, and nurture
growth,
and manifest
potential.


Brilliance 

Sparks of  light
glisten on the snow
reflecting the
sparks of invigoration.

Distraction

Focus follows
Heart and Mind
And
When Heart and Mind
Are unbalanced
Focus is misjudged;
Redirect that focus
Is a step towards
Rebalancing
Heart and Mind.

Dissolve

‘tis said
love conquers all
- and it does,
tho’
tis easier said
than done.

PS - this refers to emotions and energetic matters: mundane (physical world - everyday life, in other words) matters also do have genuine requirements around security, food, housing, clothing, etc

Attrition

Consistently, consistently;
Steadily, steadily
- like a relentless river of ice
the breath of a feather
times a thousand thousand
becomes a gale.

Diffusion

We all can bear
A little;
Share the load
Limit the load
To what we
can each accept
Without wear.

Outlast

You nudge
I forbear to nudge back
And politely go my way
While staying alert.

From divination - A Rangers of the Inner Plane Story

Meredith was our diviner. She was good with a wide range of systems - various Tarot decks, geomancy, but dowsing was her particular speciality.

She loved dowsing, which she was using in a quiet corner of the room. 

Where she was frowning. 

Brenda was visiting, and in the midst of quiet laughter with several of us, she noticed. 

Maybe that was the enhanced sensitivity of being an Agent of Bast ... or something she had picked up from the cats - current and past - in her life, some owned by her, many she just met while out and about - physically, and in the nonphysical. 

“Hey, Mer.” 

“Er, yeah, um, hey Brenda.” 

“You seem ... perplexed?” 

“Worried, actually.” 

“Yeah, I thought Id be nice and soften the vibe.”

Mer grinned, and asked “Is Casz about?” 

“Im just getting here”, Casz interjected. “Looked like something was going on.”

Mer nodded: “About three clicks west of here, Ive found some major unbalancing energy - nothing else, just energy - coming from about the second or third astral level.” 

Casz narrower her eyes in concentration: “Nothing on cause?” 

Mer shook her head and looked even more worried: “Nothing I can find. Maybe one of th-”

 “No, Mer”, Casz smiled, “Your work is fine, and we trust you. We dont need to get others in to help.” 

Mer blushed slightly at the praise. 

Casz looked around the room, frowning slightly in concentration. 

Reaching a decision, she called the members of two Triangles over, and outlined what Mer had found. 

“Greg, I want you, Paul and Sally to float over to where Mer tells you, and set up dispersing shields on the first astral and upper etheric. Nothing stronger, at this time - we dont know that theres anything malicious in it.” 

We had started using float as an in joke for astral travel.

Greg and his team nodded. 

“Ann, I want you, Marty and Ivan to head up to second and third astral, and find out what is going on.” 

They nodded, and both teams went to find a spare room they could eaach work in.

Casz and Bill quickly organised the rest of us into protection and local patrol work, and called another of our healers to come over to look after us while working and afterwards. 

Then it was a case of just waiting. 

Half an hour later, we were all back and grounded, and we regrouped to hear the reports. 

Gregs team were brief - it wasnt a difficult task, but Ann had a longer report. 

Some international physical world events that had made the news had led to reactions locally, and one of those had created a cloud of despair and anger that had - unintentionally - found a weaker part of the astral, pouring into it like water going through a breached dam. 

We werent set up to work on world events, although many of our members were activists in their everyday lives, but we could do something about the energy. 

Mer warned us not to directly influence the group, as the energy was something that group could use as a driving force for constructive physical world action, but Gregs team was strengthened with Cons Triangle, and they were given the task of a dispersal shield to protect neighbours.

Ann’s team was strengthened with Tara’s Triangle, and tasked with a dispersal shield at the head of the breach into the astral. 

The rest of us tuned in to every source of balanced/balancing and BPM strengthening energy we could find, to see if they could spare any energy, and if so, for how long. 

An hour later, we had promises of energy, a few percent here, a few percent there, that would meet most of the energy needs we were looking for over the next fortnight. 

The joy was sobered by the slight gap, so I spoke up. 

“We can rotate filling that extra bit.”

A relieved Casz replied “Thank you.” 

And then we set to work. 

In principle, the first stage was to fill the gap, in a sense - if a breached dam has the same level of water upstream and down, water won’t flow, so the energy we were being given was going to flood the low energy astral zone. 

Once that was done, we were repair the weakened connection to the physical - a bit like reweaving a jacket to fix a hole.

That was also being done primarily using the donated energy - but all the sources had to do was feed into astral thought forms of crystals that we had created, which also had links we could use to direct the energy to where it was needed. 

Another hour of work, and it was up and running. 

A few of us would check the energy flows, and make changes when they were needed, but another fortnight and we would be ready to check that it had all worked as planned.
