New Moon.

layers and spirals of grief-
so deeply interconnected.
secondary grief vibrating out in the world, ripples, waves-
it can be hard to breathe.
people I cherish
in pain& gut wrenching loss.
souls making the transition into the mystery-
becoming ancestors, perhaps?
I look up for them.
My dreams are full of endings.
old friends, possibilities, paths not taken… layers upon layers-
Honoring the spirals of life as they teach me humility and grace for riding the waves of it all.
I keep feeling into the aliveness -the way the body moves and pulsates, expands and contracts, rises and falls.. until it doesn’t.
