We live in an area deep in the farm belt of America. It is the time and season to honor the earth. We will do our ritual and go into the spirit world.. We invoke life into the earth for the plants, trees, and the animals that they can provide enough good food for everyone in the world. We thank the Great Mother for her presence and the restoration and rejuvenation of each life cycle and season. We will sing our song" Silver is the moon, calm as the sea, peaceful you appear to me. Golden is the Sun, warm and radiant too, oh what can your magik be. All things grow and need your rays to gain eternal strength, may you ever shine on me. Silver is the moon, calm as the sea, mystic cycles call to me. Blessed be

I would love to live off the beaten path away from the city!Thank you for sharing your words!

Leslie, I learned that little song in public grade school about 50 years ago. I am sure that few of the other farm kids thought little about the meaning of the words except for myself. Back then, no matter how tempted I was, I could not inquire from Mrs. D., our teacher, about the words. We were told never to talk about such things outside of the family. I believe that she knew much more than many others did about the inner being in that sleepy little midwest town. By the time I was old enough to go back there and find out about herself and the song she had passed away. It was truly sad that we could not communicate with others of like mind back then because of fear. I'm glad those days are gone!!! Thanks for allowing me to ramble Leslie. blessings to you and Blessed be
