BIRTH MOONS
2014, BIRTH
The idea of increasing is indeed, similar to pregnancy. With its culmination (and there can be many at many levels), there is a birth. Is the anniversary of your BirthDay an actual cosmic representation of your Earthly birth? No. The planets and stars and other Heavenly bodies were in a very specific alignment at the time of your birth, one that is not repeated on the same calendar day each year.
Let every day be a celebration of your BirthDay. Birth yourself new every day. Return to purifying rituals; give thanks; invite Great All into your life. Give thanks for your life—to family, to Creator, to the Angelic realm and to all of your Healers and Helpers. Thank them. Be in Grace with Them. Marvel at the gift of Life.
To show gratitude keeps all of the knots out of the lemniscate of reciprocity.
Blessed Be

2023 UPDATE: THE BLOG IS BEING REBUILT AT ritualpeace.org
Hello To All: I've been away on an unexpected and much-needed vacation. Now, it's sort of, kind of, back to business as usual. I do have a trip in the offing from June 18th to June 25th, but hope to get a couple of posts up while I'm gone. I'm also working on my Wordpress site, so I hope that before long I'll have a database for posts that allows me to better organize lessons and transmissions by their titles and subject matter. Until then, happy hunting! Blessings, Denise

DOVETAILING
2014, COMPASSION, HEART
When you grasp the concept of Compassion, you have often increased your ability for Patience. When you show Love, you also give Compassion. When you open your heart with Kindness, you often become a good listener. This is Dovetailing—the fingering together of objectives, qualities and tasks that pair, complement and predispose one another towards an end result.
Can you love a child without showing gentleness? Can you give fair counsel to a person in pain when your own heart is unschooled in loss? Is wisdom available to the person who is not able to hear for the ready availability of their own pat answers, or one who is closed by fear?
What is surrender without Faith? Who are You? What are you doing Now, in this moment? How many tasks can you calculate? Are you listening? deciding? weighing? questioning? remembering?
Dovetailing is not multi-tasking. Multi-tasking leaves the heartsource and fans out in many directions, randomly, its only connection the power sending it forward. Dovetailing makes loops out and away from the heartsource, returning again and again, helping, asking: How can I, with my skills and knowledge, help in these other tasks?
Dovetailing is a beautiful melody, waiting for the chorus, voices, instruments, and a conductor. It is grace, walking. It is a myriad of bright and beautiful, ingenious filaments of light twisted into a dance of harmonic convergence that says, always, yes . . . (we will not talk of using these gifts otherwise)
Just as We (Tribe) provide points of reflection for you, so can each of youprovide those points for one another, providing for another garden where a particular plant is absent.
Let your Light dance together and your music be merry.
Blessed Be

APOGEES
August 22, 2023|2014, DISTANCE, PERCEPTION
The point from which you are most distanced from some thing, as the moon is most distanced from the Earth in its natural orbit each cycle—that is an Apogee. Both points are relative; both are cyclical. This can be perceived as a matter of perception: such as the moon appearing smaller in the sky when its distance from the Earth is greater . . . such as the Belief that your goal is greatly distanced from where you are, or wherever you are . . . also a matter of perception.
Distance can be measured in both time and in space, but when we feel distanced from something, it is likely our emotions inciting us to feel dissatisfaction that our desire and our present are not currently commingled. We want what we want when we want it—and usually that is now—in our present. Apogees, greatest distances, as far as our desires are concerned, never suit us.
What about hurry and worry: how does it feel to place those emotions at an Apogee? How does it feel to place hatred, anger, fear, jealousy, and rage at an Apogee? Can we acknowledge these conditions, like the light of the moon, knowing that they are connected to us, part of us and our light, shining down on us and through us, and yet, at safe enough distances so that we can respond to their powerful forces rather than being controlled by them?
What memories and former connections active in your present, can be liberated to an Apogee while you complete your journey with them? With less distraction, the goals and desires that have long been lodged at their own Apogees become merely distant, and then far, closing until they are just over there, and then . . . here, with you.
The greatest question is: what is the Apogee between you/You and your Belief in your self/Self?
Look to your horizon and your most distant dreams. Fold that distance. Fold it again and again until it fits perfectly into your Present.

PERIGEES
2014, ILLUSION, PERCEPTION
What is illusion--and what is real, but comparative; and what is the difference? An Apogee, as related to the relative distance of the Moon from the Earth—as farthest point—and the Perigee, the relative distance of the Moon from the Earth as closest point, are two very good examples of this concept.
The size of the Moon in fact, has not changed, but if photographed from the same place on Earth, under the same circumstances with the same equipment, you can see that the moon of an Apogee is quite smaller than the moon of a Perigee. The Perigee is much larger, and what is sometimes called a “Super Moon.” This perception is a matter of distance and relationship.
What other matters in life can be said to be directly entangled by the concepts of distance and relationship? Are certain factors in your life, observed at certain points, larger appearing than at other times? What other factors are in play when you notice this to be true in your life?
Are you inflating something in your field of vision that should be given only regular or even casual attention? Are you focused too much on a minor player to whom you have given a starring role? Have you made of a sow’s ear, a silk purse?
Cycles are cyclical for pertinent reasons. Contraction and expansion move in natural attunement to breath. Just as daylight must have night and up must have down, the elliptical nature of an orbit will bring bodies close together and then further apart. Move with this cycle and feel its natural ease.
Staring too long into the sun causes blindness. To see the moon only as large, especially falsely large, on the horizon, becomes a Perigee of unhappiness for the Spirit.
Enjoy the cosmos in its many moods and wonders, in its Perigees and Apogees, in the lifts and falls of its symphonies.

How humble a job, you think. Watching over dull animals who need little but an occasional nudge, so little you find yourself daydreaming. Of what do you dream? Do you dream of a life that is faster and more glamorous, accepting that it comes with more responsibility and less time for daydreaming?
Throughout all time, many a goatherd has dreamed of a different life, and the life that he dreamed, being lived by another, had its own dreamer who dreamed of the goatherd’s simple life. Why do we stand here, inside our selves, and look away, thinking that we would rather have what is outside our selves in the moment?
It is our human nature, and not all together negative, to want something more than what we have in the moment—in most moments. To rise and grow and conquer ourselves, facing fears and deconstructing our false mythologies, we must see into the places that live beyond where we now stand.
We must see beyond our flock of five to the flock of fifty, with weavers and dyers and drivers and stalls. We must grow our selves/Selves.
And all the while we are Becoming: becoming awake and aware, we must remain able to stay awake and aware of where we are Now. Now is the point at which we find ourselves, always. Without fail, Now is the place and the purpose, guided by our High Selves, Tribe Members, Guides, Angels, and other cosmic means, that gives us meaning. From Now, all roads depart, all signs point.
Bring your Future into your Now. Do not leave your Now to go into your Future. There are those who can make such quantum leaps, but we are not speaking to them. We are speaking to You, who are growing your Selves in conscious increments, one gain at a time. Do not dwell so on your destination that you miss the sweet smell of the grass under your feet, the starlight, and the lowing of the animals.
Bless your job and your place for what they are—not in comparison to what others have or what others are doing. Let your Now be singular. If you can’t bless your job or your place, is it due to false cosmology, false expectations, or ego concerns—or is your Spirit urging you to move forward?
A happy trillionaire is no happier than a happy goatherd. An unhappy trillionaire is no unhappier than an unhappy goatherd. Their circumstances differ. Possibly, the people that they effect are affected differently in number and proportion. However you make your way in this genus of Earthly life, you herd something: services, products, or other things of valuation.
Who are you in your Now—Now? What is your current level of satisfaction in your Life, in all of the ways that matter: body, Spirit, emotion, community, Purpose, and faith? You cannot correct falseness and disquiet through avoidance and denial.
Take stock. Will you enjoy tonight’s starlight?

MOVING THE MOUNTAIN
2014, DOGMA, FAITH
You sit in the meadow lamenting the day. The Mountain is beautiful, you say, but it will not move. You haven’t the strength of the mustard seed or the faith of the violet, who rise up like a warrior to face the day. Is it myth that this mountain will move at your will? What is a mountain?
Think of the ages that have been and that will be. How many times has the face of Earth changed? How many times in your own body have cells replicated, died, and given themselves to new cells? It is not the nature of Life to be static. Life is movement and therefore, change. Today’s mountain is tomorrow’s valley.
Today’s canyon is tomorrow’s river. And the mountain is in you, always.
What does this mean? It means that seismic activity is the harmonic underpinning of Earthly Life. Contraction and expansion is the breath of Great All. Vertical lift is required for the fall. To move the Mountain, you must allow for the seismic activity that it will require, the vertical lift of some matters and the fall of others.
When we Move the Mountain, we displace whatever we have frozen in our thoughts and beliefs, our dogmatic holding onto the illusions of static continuance, traditions and permanence. We allow for the volcanic eruption that is needed, or for the release of pressures that cause the upthrust plates to glide gracefully back to a horizontal plane. Either route moves the mountain.
Do you sit at this moment, reading these words from your mountain? Is it kind there? Have you placed yourself atop your mountain for the High view, or have you escaped, hoping to save the mountain from its natural erosion? What name has your mountain, and what purpose? Feel the Earth as you sit. What is the nature of Her Song?
She will tell you.
Is it time to Move the Mountain?
