Your Daily Hafiz

The Lute Will Beg


You need to become a pen

In the Sun´s hand.

We need for the earth to sing

Through our pores and eyes.

The body will again become restless

Until your soul paints 

all its beauty upon the sky.

Don´t tell me, dear ones,

That what Hafiz says is not true,

For when the heart tastes its glorious destiny

And you awake to our constant need

for your love

God´s lute will beg

For your hands.

-Hafiz

True Study and Life Task

Hi everyone,

I've been immersed in my book project and tonight I was thinking about my own chosen true studies and how they point in the direction of my life task quite succinctly!

Here's the list of mine:
1. Esoteric Studies including the Michael teachings and astrology
2. The study of History through Romance (think Wuthering Heights)
3. Weaponry
4. The study of Ritual, especially the Japanese Tea Ceremony.

Take a look at your own and see how they provide focus for your own Life Task. My particular life task has to do with personal power and next spring you will all see how these studies go together when my book is published!

Have fun!

Why the Tape Recorder Stopped Working

I was reviewing old transcripts as I am writing and came upon the answer to a question which has been the topic of conversation for years: Why does the tape recorder that I used for personal sessions not work all the time? On more than one occasion there was nothing, nada, zip, on the tape after an hour session. Here is what they had to say:


From a private group circa 1990
"Camille" was the medium for this session

"As to the difficulties of electronic devices, the very focused and unwavering singularity of the electronic application of energy is often disrupted by the presence of energetic chords in that the "harmonic structure" of essence and related energies can and occasionally does cause vibratory
misfunctions to the singular "vibration" of the electronic application of energy. It is of course not a question of fault but one metaphoric tonality. There is no "easy" method to accomodate these problems except to shield the single note from disruption. Of course as science becomes more complex, it may be that there are those who will choose to address these energetic issues."

Blog Update September 2010

Greetings All,

I have embarked on a very exciting adventure as I am writing a book. I am about half way into it, and am finding that it requires loads of time in order to keep it moving along, not to mention my usual work with clients. So, it's likely my blog posts will be a little sporadic for the next few months, but I promise to write as often as I can. Thanks in advance for your understanding and I will look forward to sharing my book as soon as it is published.
All the very best,  Victoria

Your Daily Muir

Let children walk with Nature, let them see the beautiful blendings and communions of death and life, their joyous inseparable unity, as taught in woods and meadows, plains and mountains and streams of our blessed star, and they will learn that death is stingless indeed, and as beautiful as life. 
~John Muir

Taking A Life: A Song about Reincarnation


TAKING A LIFE
Lyrics by Brendan McCarthy
recorded 7.10 by Something Left Unsaid



I will walk once more when i have died 

Be born again to breathe new life, 

Subterfuged, I'm blended in 

as trail of ash through the ruins of Pompei 

i've heard the whip crack, i've takin my lashes 

a gladly paid price for what i now 
know,
i'm somewhere far away, farther than ive shown 

You will look but you'll never find me 

i'm someplace they wont go 

deep within decay 

i hope one day you'll see 

that there is life 
amongst your dead

ive begged with paupers and ive conquered with kings 

ive danced with demons takin my refuge in my veins 

a symmetrical shift in the structure of bad brains 

through carnage we sift, to retain what remains 

but i will walk once more when i have died, 

will be born again to breathe new life
i'm somewhere far away, farther than ive shown 

you will look but you'll never find me 

i'm someplace they wont go 

deep within decay 

i hope one day you'll see 
that there is life 
amongst your dead

We're plotting the course and charting the sky 

With the infinite wealth of the three warm and wild eyes
Cards that we're dealt are by our own design 
The path that we walk is the meaning of life
But we will walk once more once we have died 

Born again we will breathe new life
i'm somewhere far away, farther than ive shown 

You will look but you'll never find me 

i'm someplace they wont go 
deep within decay 

i hope one day you'll see 
that there is life....
