The day when Gaia

Has tilted neither away from

Nor towards Sol,

A golden cloud

In the shape of a ram

At her blue sky arrives.

A touch of sparking gold

Dripping and sopping,

Fountain of water

Springs into a tambourine.

Abra thy rhythm, O Gaia,

Thou be’st beat of creation.

When the cloud is in its fall,

It melts the ram

And far above in the Heavens

Bawl is heard.

Sol returns exalted

So that trees awake

Wearing garlands of green.

Indigo iridescence,

Harmonía from hummingbirds,

Trine, sextile, quintile

Melodic chirp, O Gaia

Thou art sound inspiration.

From the galactic centre

Being dreamed over a lotus

Via Lactea whirls a spiral.

As above so below,

New fronds uncurl the ferns

To salute the light,

Namaste

And not very far,

A Cornucopia filled with ambrosias,

Flowers, fruits and grains.

These are riches of plenty

From thy Garden of Delights.

With vegetation comes Abundance

With Abundance comes her Guardian.

The Guardian masters a spear

With which Chiron initiated him once.

A winged helmet won his head

‘Cos when the Guardian inhales air,

He attracts receptivity.

As for all the air the Guardian exhales,

It makes the fields to sake

For cattle to make a space

So that broad-breasted Abundance

Can churn foam from their milk.

III

Churnest Abundance, churnest

Thou dost of all foam the featherest!

So feathery the foam,

Into aerial sphere ascends

Whence in the radius of its orb,

The Angel that Conjoins Duality

From the Heavens descends.

Out of his mouth, a butterfly

For Abundance, rainbow and crown.

And the bee the Angel sets free,

Angelic pollination

Triumph shall spring.

When the vespertine flowers

Open in full bloom,

Soma the Guardian drinks.

Glow on his lips,

So while he undresses her,

Kiss Abundance does not resist.

Their dance of cosmic grace

Vibrates through subtlety.

All the breath heaved

Waxing Luna collects;

Luna molds it into a pearl

For Oceanus when she is waning.

Among the sparkling waters

Three-thousand Sirens

Blow from below,

A chariot pulled by sea-horses

Rocks Mother Womb

Through colonnades of moonlight,

That in silver bath

Temples of coral

Where Nymphs sing

Inspired by deity

Song sailors learn,

Mother Womb makest thy nest…

… Inside the belly of Whale.

Nine natural steps

To nourish seed into fruition,

From involution of space

To love infinite.

So werest thou created

Water breaking, fluid out flowing

Through the blowhole of the whale.

Up in the air,

It crafts asanas

And the Heavenly Windows open wide

Blessing brightest golden light.

When the newborn arrives

Twelve sunbeams illuminate

A diadem of laurel.

Trumpets, harps and bells,

Rotation of Glory

Of the Angels of Paradise.

From marvel of Joy

His palace walls are made.

Golden Kingdom embroider

Of roses and parades,

For people to shake palms

From the middle of their hearts.

Love he bestows to all below him,

Loved he is by purity above him.

Four elephants over a tortoise

Hold the Pillars of Vitality

That sustains the ark

For thy children, O Gaia,

To raise the vibration

Of a multi-fold of petals

Through fire and earth.

Through winds. The oceans.

Petals uncoiling seven ethers

Awaken the Third Eye.
