Eve of Hecate
As we approach the 13th of August
August celebration of the Dark Moon Goddess
under the light of this August Full Moon
Aquarius bears the Water, carries the way
along the electro-virtual waves
shining Moonlight, Faery Queen or fabled harlot
stirs potent night blooms, expelling myths of
what we cannot bear, cannot overcome
Feel in the electric falling starlight
Spells of renewal, of power to look back
upon our falterings, to find the seed now grown
yet changing still and ever, able,
willing, co-creating in the illuminated shadow
invoking the peace of dissolving twilight
of midnight's hopeful resurrection
of the hinting flame that lightens before the dawn
take peace into each breath, each incantation
from the strength to align impeccably
with your deepest truth

Re: Eve of Hecate
An etherel-flow so fitting for last night.
quote: shining Moonlight, Faery Queen or fabled harlot
stirs potent night blooms, expelling myths of
what we cannot bear, cannot overcome
this poem and this day gave me some much needed strength. Thank you!

Re: Eve of Hecate
Twice, maybe three times I've played with the notion that, in addition to her three phases, or faces, the moon has a fourth order. Her dark side that never sees the sun, keeps to herself, never borrows from anyone else's light. Hecate, yes. Or the mother and source of all mystical knowledge some call Sophia. And maybe the moon in her madness too. In any event I always see her as following her own rules, nobody else's.
This is some of what your poem brings to mind.
