ONCE UPON A TIME
all the worlds lived together
there was no separation between matter and spirit
humans talked daily to the dead
and remembered to honour the faerie elementals
who kept nature in balance
.
gradually humanity lost the connection
became obsessed with the material plane
but remembered the spirit as the Great Mother
holding, loving, feeding us all
until the men of war rose to dominate the world
and set a Father God on her throne
dictating laws and condemning sinners
but still the people could recall
that the spirit was real and that they had lived before
in other forms and would do so again
.
it was the Roman Emperor, not the Church
who eradicated reincarnation from the Christian worldview
male priests seized the spiritual power that had long belonged to the women, transgender and queer peoples,
male priests claimed to hold the keys to heaven
instead of ecstatic rites that brought in the divine presence
people went to church to hear the preacher
tell them God could only be known after death
and only if they obeyed the Church’s rules in life.
All this to create a frightened population
forced to be soldiers, workers, slaves and, nowadays also consumers
doing the bidding of their masters
kept docile by capitalism, media, alcohol and drugs
until we no longer even believe
in the transcendent possibilities of our souls….
Until we have no faith in our ability to be whole
to be One with all creation
to rise daily to a natural elation
dancing with the spirit of Life
remembering the source of existence is Love.
.
But in this darkest hour
as Ignorance dominates the planet
millions of hearts are opening and souls remembering
this is not how it has to be
.
everything we think we know will change
we can live multi-dimensionally
enter the dance of synchronicity
unravel the knots and blocks in our souls
make the remembrance of ONENESS our greatest goal
restore again the holy Whole
each one of us has a role.
