The Essence of Easter

As we journey this path

We see a new world appear

With the coming of Easter

A time I hold so dear

The Resurrection

and the Light

A time for new insight

To tear away at boundaries made

To wander through the moonlit glade

To see beyond the stars

To reach for heaven afar

This Easter, come what may

Believe life is truly gay

Happy beyond all realms

Of understanding thus far

Everlasting light

Growing within the Sight

Of pure delight

A day to think deeply about the journey

A day to make amends

A day to truly enjoy life's glory

A world without end

Believe in life everlasting

Believe in the truth and the Light

See beyond the limitations of the flesh

To a world that's really bright

Where flashes of lightning

Light up the sky

Where thunder sounds like a lion's roar

Heaven all the more

Deep inside our selves

we know of this truth

I'm sure

That somewhere out there

There's more

Than simply flesh and bone

A glorious world

To be known

Onward they cry

The Angel's bright

With swords and banners raised

To the future, To the Light

Of a misty haze

Great days

Thank you dear Lord Jesus

For this day

When you rose again

The joy it brings the children of the future

Is really safe for hum'en

It reminds how the simple things

In life do really matter

How a child's smile

Can light up the world

And all that blessed chatter

Tinkling sounds from deep within

That matter much to them

Thank you dear Lord

For your listening ear

To prayers of a loving nature

Thank you for showing us the way

To believe in life everlasting

May You go on for evermore

To create and live life pure

Thank you

Thank you

Rest assured

Life will be pure

And kept as true

As that

With gracious gowns

I hide myself

To be a wild cat

The cats and dogs

We call our friends

Enjoy this day I know

The titbits of chocolate

Nice and tasty

Shared with furry friend

Their lives like ours eternal

Spiritually sound

To God abounds

Purest energies

Thank You Lord for life itself

Thank You for solace found

Blessed be

Amen

The Glory of the Lord

Dear souls of the Universe
I am gathered here today to get through this thing called LIFE!
The Prince of Peace
Shall reign in Heaven evermore
Let us Pray

"Dear Lord, and Father of mankind

Forgive Our foolish ways

Reclothe Us in Our Rightful Mind

In poorer lives thy service find

In reverence of Thy praise

In reverence of Thy praise"

Thank you Dear LOrd

Lo and behold an ANgel appears!

Look up and see!

Thank you Dear Lord for Creation

Thank you for my Life

Thank you for each and every Day I am Living

Dear Heavenly MOther Goddess and All Her Angels

Including the Great and Dear Queen of the Angels

AND also the Mother of All Angels

Fantastic and Great Gabriel.

Amen

I feel at this time in eternity we need to appreciate more than ever that the Lord and indeed the Lady do not stand alone in heaven. Up there in the heavenly skies are indeed a flock of sheep for the Lord is Our shepherd and we shall not want! Plus a whole host of Angels. It is my wish that we become less dependant on the Lord Our God as a sole experience. He needs his gathered flocks around him at all times. After all in Aesop's fables we heard of a boy who cries wolf and when he left his flocks the wolf attacked. Why would The Lord ever leave Us. He is everywhere we look by day and as the Lady reigns over the Night the Stars are gathered to watch over Us with the very Divine Light we need to rest Our souls that He is indeed ever present. The deepness of the night sky is that of the Heavenly Mother. She gathers with Us at night to rest Our souls and let Us sleep soundly. Once dawn comes the Lord rises from His slumbers and shines upon Our faces again. Thanks be for this natural evolution of the world. Both Heavenly Father and Heavenly Mother are always together with Us each and every day of Our lives.

Thank you for this natural balance

Dear Lord and Lady 

I believe

Thank you for ALL You both do each and every day of Our lives

The day of bright sunshine

The evening of deep rest

The wholesome way Our lives are naturally balanced

To make the most of Our natural talents

Our days are spent in Glory

Our nights in deep praise

Welcome to my world!

Be ever Who You are!

Great and glorious!

Wondrous and Everlasting

Thank you for Everything!

Wise and Knowing

Truly spectacular!

Amen, Blessed Be

The Twelve Days of Christmas

The Twelve Days of Christmas

The Twelve Days of Christmas is a carol with a strong meaning in the Christian faith. Each of the lines of the song has a link to Christianity. It was during the times when catholics had to hide their faith from the world around them and this song used to enable them to pray in secret. It was a song the people could sing to celebrate their belief in God. 

"A partridge in a pear tree" symbolises a belief in ONE God as the commandments teach us.

"Two turtle doves" symbolised the Old testament and the New testament.

"Three French Hens" represented the Trinity, Father, Son and Holy Spirit

"Four Calling Birds" represented the four Gospels

"Five Golden Rings" is something to do with Jesus as the sacred number of Christ is five. This is the reason we have five fingers and thumb. The number speaks of the number of Holy Wounds Christ suffered. There are other links in the Bible to this sacred number and as Christian Wiccans we know how powerful a number it be!!

"Six Geese a-laying" represents the star of David. To me personally this symbolises the holy matrimony of the Lord and the Lady as one triangle pointing up is the Lord and the other pointing down is the Lady, as a symbol the star of David is powerful to keep both Lord and Lady in your heart of prayer.

"Seven swans a-swimming" is another sacred number of the Lord which is honoured especially in Rastafari teachings and is also the sacred number of colours in the Rainbow and the major chakras

"Eight maids a-milking" as a christian Wiccan would be the Sabbats of the year. There may well be a Catholic meaning from the bible which was it's true meaning in this carol.

"Nine ladies dancing" is a funny one as 9 is the number of completion and is strongly evident in the Bah'ai faith who in my book are still strongly Christian.

"Ten Lords a'Leaping" is really of Islam as there are Ten pillars of Islam although it is in my belief that there is a Christian counterpart to this. I suppose here we mean the Ten commandments!!!

"Eleven pipers piping" is for the true biblical Apostles of Jesus as represented on a Simnel cake at Easter.

"Twelve drummers drumming" is again a sacred number we find in astrology and as the Twelve tribes of Israel or Judah!
