During this great and holy season of Solstice and Christmas, I offer you my reflections on the birth of the Light from the Darkness.
Mother Night
Just as all life on Planet Earth was birthed from Mother Ocean,
So all life in the universe was birthed by the Great Cosmic Mother
Whom we know as the vast dark sea of deep space.
She is the Darkness that gave birth to the Light.
..She is the No-Thing which is full of the potential of All Things
Of old she was known by many names:
Dame Night, Dame Dark, Dame Nox,
Dame Hell, Dame Wisdom
Mother Night, Mother Darkness,
Old Fate, Old Veiled One, Old Night,
Nyx
She is SHE -
The Great One, Darkness.
And from her emanated HE – the Limitless Light.
From their dance of love
Came forth the Many Other Lights -
Elements, Stars, Planets,
Mountains, Plains, Oceans,
Trees, Plants, Animals...
She is the Mother, the feminine aspect of divinity.
The one who conceives, gestates, births, nourishes,
And ultimately, takes life back into herself.
She is the Birther and yet also the Destroyer.
Queen of Life, Queen of Death,
Queen of Day, Queen of Night
The Great Mother of All
In this season, as Dark gives birth to Light, let us remember that the loving dance of Dark and Light is the Dance of Life.
Blessed be the Darkness!
Blessed be the Light!
Blessed be the One Life
That runs through it all!
