Journeys - Step #4 - The Empress

Missing image

















Key of III
Definition:  Material wealth, marraige, fertility, good advice, safety.
    Reversed:  Infertility, loss of material possessions, inaction, instability.




In theta state the drums I hear,
At ease with Self, I feel no fear.

My hand caresses my triangular stone
as I toss it unto the waves of foam.

Waters spirit receives this gift.
The veil between fortune lifts.

This path I do embark upon
Senses heighten; begins the dawn.

I gaze at the oak forest of old--
Discover tales yet to me untold.

Like the child and the he
that are one within me;

This land and I will one become
enhance Self in constant motion.

The mountain stream, countless are its rivulets.
Life force emanates, sparks hitherto emit.

Strength and strife
for all life!

This I must feel internally
Reveal this bridge mine own to be!

We merge as renewed energy
Gaea and Self in harmony.

As Earth and Water
Emerge as Matter.

Fire and Air
Sustain with care.

This varied power source of combustion,
simultaneous flow and conjunction.

Of not one - but two directions.
Conflict yet correspond connections.

Once Self arrives at sacred place,
Awakes above this timeless space.

Leave Gaea behind and in reflection...
Glimpse the tests of this exploration.

Self will ascend the spiral of progression!
Growing ever closer to the next dimension!

Is it the Empress?

    Powerful!

    In lines 28-35 you impart a great understanding of the generative principle. This piece took a lot of thought and work from the background and color to the words themselves. It is beautifully conceived and I realize that you should be in by The lovers and The chariot contest which are concurrently running. Interested? By the way my take on this card is http://allpoetry.com/poem/4557561

    Congratulations on being a poet/ess who can write poetically and share knowledge.
