The Dance of the Divine Goddess

Welcome, beloved sister and brother Goddesses/Gods of the four orders of Wind, Fire, Water and Earth. Once again we come together to celebrate the Solstice, a time of the rebirth of our seasons….a time as ancient and wondrous as each and every soul gathered to embrace this divine remembrance.

Recently, a dear friend sent me a lovely card and within that card was written a most beautiful verse that bespeaks of the choreography we are bringing back into our memory:

“Dance of All Seasons

With great joy, the Goddess dances the dance of all seasons.  Wreathed around her head is Spring, bright with daffodils and a forest of bluebells awakening from their long sleep.  April showers and rainbows lead us into the long warm days of Summer.  Her skirt swirls with a misty Autumnal scene, leaving a trail of vibrant fall leaves behind her dancing feet.  Within her scarf floats a tiny hamlet in the depths of Winter with frosted trees and a veil of delicate snowflakes.  Her eternally spirited dance ensures for the Earth that the cycle of the seasons will go on.”

Most beloved Father God, Mother Goddess…we come today to honor the season of the God/Goddess.  This day, please guide us and watch over us that the things we do are not selfish or self-serving, but a tribute to the love and empowerment you have given us.  Let our intentions be motivated by the love for others and the need to be of service.

Shield us with your total enveloping power and enable us to reach into the core of our being, our own Circle of Power, into the God Center of the Gods and Goddesses we are.

We come to you to once again celebrate the rebirth of the Goddess Principle….to understand Who We Are and Why We Are Here, as you have told us before. And in doing so, to remember the Goddesses that we are. Thank you Zeb and Zarna, the Twin Soul God/Goddess, for continuing to bring us hope through inspiration.

It is the season of the Winter Solstice. A time of rebirth, renewal.  Not only is it a rebirth of our Mother Earth in this season of awakening, but it is the season of the continuation of our awakening to the Divine Goddess within us. 

The age of the Goddess is returning, and it is a joy to remember that this time we are not alone. We are the God/Goddess, the masculine and feminine aspect of One Being of Light.   As They Are, so We Are …masculine and feminine. Balanced. Unified.

We are a light…a candle burning brightly in a shadowed world of confusion, chaos and aloneness.  Enlightenment is the expression of freedom. It is time for us to unbind ourselves from the restrictive beliefs and traditions that rob us of expressing our freewill. 

Let our love and forgiveness flow freely. Let us embrace the passions expressed in our loving…embrace our sovereignty.  It is time to celebrate our divinity and allow nothing to hinder our dance of joy.

Mother and Father, Divine Parents and Twin Soul God/Goddess that are both within each other, and within each of us….guide us in the commemoration of  this rebirth of a new season, a new age, and a new beginning.

Since ancient ages, the celebrations of Spirit and Earth have blended. In this blending of the Earth and Spirit Goddesses, we celebrate the natural cycles of our bodies, the moon and the seasons.  

At this time of the year, as our Mother Gaia prepares for a rebirth, we celebrate the union of Earth Mother and Spiritual Mother, Earth Father and Spiritual Father through loving each other and loving ourselves.  

We have been shown ways to come closer together, to honor and respect each other. And in doing so, we honor our Beloved Parents and the Mission of our enlightenment.

Let us celebrate this season as the goddesses that we are and by looking into the eyes of each female we meet, help us to recognize the goddess within each of us. Let us remember the words of our Mother Zarna when She taught us to look into the eyes of each female for the girl child unfolding.  For the young maiden blossoming.  The young woman fulfilling her passions.  The young mother experiencing the creation of new life… a power older than time. The wise woman…the nurturer.  And last but not least…the Old One, the woman who has journeyed the distance.

Dear Sisters, when we look deep into the eyes of these women, remember that we are looking into the eyes of our Mother Zarna, and of Her Mother’s Mothers. 

And remember too, if you wish to see the Goddess I Am…look into the mirror and see into the eyes of the woman staring back at you. Remember, the word “Goddess” contains the word “God”….the word “She” contains the word “He” and the word “Woman” contains the word “Man”. We are not separate from one another.  This is the true meaning of The Twin Soul Goddess.

So in this season of rebirth, let us once again embrace the power that is within, through love, sharing, respect and honor.  Let us light a candle as a beacon of warmth, light and awakening to the Goddess/God/Woman/Man that we are. And let this light shine upon the spirit of oneness, putting aside the pain of who we were and embracing the joy of who we are now….this day….this season.

Let us go forth in patience, understanding, love and forgiveness. Be patient of those around us who misunderstand what we do, what we know, what we feel; be understanding by honoring and respecting what they feel, yet honoring ourselves for what we believe, who we are, and what we celebrate; and welcome with our love, all who dare to be free.  None are to be excluded, for……“We are You, and You are Us.” 

So in the quiet of this peaceful moment, let us listen closely.  Do you hear it?  Do you hear the soft rhythm pulsing deep within our inner selves?  Do you hear the music?

It is time to rejoice….time to join hands and hearts, dear Gods/Goddesses. 

It is time to begin the Dance of All Seasons.
