La petite Mort
A few years back ,many would have contested my
initiations, arguing that it was too soon
and that my initiator should have waited a few more years before performing the
necessary rites. Reflecting back, I do agree, having to go through these
initiations/ elevations did affect me profoundly, however I also do know that
these were done when it was necessary to be done, in Time and there was no
other way.
In fate we were though the weaving of our lives .
When we met, Simon
and I, we knew straight away that a lot of work needed to be done, and that we
did not have much time on this physical plane to do so, in order for our love
to unveil, blossom and bloom, but also for our magical work .The various places
we needed to go on a magical level, together and individually were equally if
not a more important part of our relationship. We could not have done it alone;
we needed to join magically…
As one and one does make three.
The creation which
we gained through our magical alliance, the hieros gamos, the yab-yum of our Life and Death allowed us to cross
threshold, together .these were not only a mere celebration or awareness of the
influence of the moon, earth, Sun and stars , coven work with all of its
necessary discipline and responsibility , but a preparation for the transmigration of our
souls and the Work which was necessary to be dealt with on this plane of
existence . The great work which we did undertake together has allowed us to
move through, deeper within the mysteries and his physical death has not
stopped this relationship .
I am now, more than ever, working with spirit,
guided by this light which is my lover’s soul, surrounded by those who have
gone before.
We are both standing at the threshold, I, in Life, him, in Death,
both dancing together, intermingled,
There is no separation and the work shall continue.
Your death, my love,
The sacrifice of your life
Is a gift,
From you to me.
You are the bridge, the path
The right of ingress
Back to Her.
I am you
Your are me
There is no separation.
