Morning Prayer

Good Morning, my Beloved Relatives. It is a good day. Sent up sweetgrass, cedar and sage smoke for each of you this morning from the Heart of the Mountain. The Sun rose above the Mountains this morning in its Spring Home on the north slope. Now, watching the Gibbous Moon descend to the west. Sending prayers and good thoughts for you and your loved ones, and, for your enemies and the enemies of our earth, sky and water, as well. May their hearts, minds and spirits be flooded with love and light. May their hurts and wounds be comforted and may they grow in compassion and humanity so they will stop their destructive words and actions. May they be healed and brought back into good relationship with the earth and each other and all people. May these prayers for love and light to grow help bring our world back into balance so all people and all our relations that share our home can live together in peace with justice. Let us make these prayers real by our good loving words and actions. All my Relations. 

The Sun rises above the Mountain on the first Dawn of Spring 2014 in its Spring House.

 Facing the Sun.

The Mountain

The Sun's Winter House is just above the rock outcropping on the south slope of the Mountain.

Facing Southeast

Facing South, the place of gentleness and compassion.

Vista of Arroyo Hondo and Sunlit Hills with the Ortiz, then the Manzano and Sandia Mountains in the distance to the Southwest.

Looking Southwest with our Cerro Tijeras Mountain ridge to the West.

The Waning Gibbous Moon Descending further to the south each day in its monthly cycle.

The constant changes of our Moons' phases remind us that change is constant, but the cycles of growth, fullness, waning and death are ever renewing, ongoing and infinite.

The mountain ridge to the west protects from harsh winds.

Facing West, the place of introspection and looking within.

Looking to the Northwest and, facing the North, the place of wisdom and healing.

Looking to the North and Northeast.

Facing due East, the place of dreams and inspiration.

The Sun, constantly moving, continues to rise.

Blessings for a good day on our beautiful earth for everyone, everywhere.
