nan_Angel.jpg|Archangel Gabriel
"I am not alone in this blessed state.
Each creature moves in and out of me and we embrace."
The Archangel Gabriel's name means "The Strength of God".
His/her (Archangels are often depicted as androgynous) deeds
are recorded in the Jewish scriptures,
where the spirit aided the Prophet Daniel
in the interpretation of his dream-visions.
In the Christian Bible, Gabriel announced the births
of both John the Baptist and Jesus Christ and
at the Last Judgement, it is Gabriel who
is said to blow a sacred trumpet horn.
According to Muslims, Gabriel dictated the Koran
to Mohammed over a period of 23 years and
also accompanied the Prophet on his Night Journey.
I made this collage recently and
because there is so much information
that points toward 2012 as being the portal
to a new age on Earth, it seems fitting to me that
2012 would be the time when Gabriel
would be blowing his trumpet and joyously
announcing the completion of the old era and
the beginning of the new.|Archangel Gabriel

Quotes from Rumi: "When someone asks what there is to do,
light the candle in their hand." "Tend to your vital heart and
all you worry about will be solved." "You are the whole ocean.
Why send out for a sip of dew?" "World power means nothing.
Only the unsayable, jeweled inner life matters."

Quote from Rumi: "Be a sheet of paper with nothing
on it. Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing;
where something might be planted, a seed possibly,
from the Absolute."

"I carry Her face with me wherever I go.
When has Love not been an Oasis?"
A woman stands on the surface of the sea,
seeing her face reflected in the water cupped
in her hands, recognizing that she herself
is an aspect of the Great Mother.
Set in a future Centennial holiday when a century
of world peace is being celebrated,
when Gaia and all her inhabitants live
in pristine health and harmony.
The ancient buildings are preserved and
sit in honor next to futuristic crystal pyramids
that provide safe, free, clean energy, and
everyone has become capable of such feats
as effortlessly walking on water
and communing with the animals.|Face of the Mother

Hummingbirds seem like such multi-dimensional beings to me.
I imagined a silvery portal through which they might
fly to other times/spaces and back to ours again,
bringing with them songs to tell us of what they've experienced there.|Hummingbird Portal
