Place as a reflection of the soul

I used to take with a pinch of salt new age talk of the outer being but a reflection of the inner, but as the years have gone by i now believe this to be the case..I don't think i gave enough credit or trust in the magic of it all before, but now i see bits of this brilliance and utter magic of it all...i have realised lately more than ever the sheer beauty of the river and the meadows and the area i have created in nature in my locality. Every night subtle changes are shown to me, i see the 'jewels'..and it is amazing! The walk really can reflect the soul within or even how the spirit is at that particular time and place. Now i think as i am seeing so much beauty, then i must have stumbled upon inner beauty too! this is a welcome revelation for me...and i am not giving it too much analysis rather basking in its subtle hues...i had a brief visit to the shrine, it is looking more magical than ever, i saw the mouse again, walking into my shelter, seemingly oblivious to the giant humanoid looking at it.The foliage is still remarkably full and green, even though the brown of autumn is making an appearance..the air is still warm, in fact it was perfect this evening, fresh yet warm too, i was in a t-shirt!! i felt energised after my sojourn, the artificiality of the workday gone in a flash. Believe in the power of nature, it can clear the badness very swiftly from the aura and the psyche, it is waiting for us to believe in its magic...and feel the force and the wonder of it all. blessed be:)

Leaving it for Nature

I have not been there for a few days, change of scene, been to the coast of north wales...and its been fantastic..the weather was divine..i was on a beach called morfa dyffryn which is a long strip of sand backed by an extensive dune system...i walked the dunes, wathced the sun go down over the distant hills across the bay...soaked up all the solar/lunar/sea energies...and also thought..wow! wouldn't it be great to live here...i could find some brilliant places for a little shrine here...but the problem? well...the whole place is like a shrine..beauty everywhere..from chancing upon 20 or so grazing rabbits in a dune valley turned to greenery, with small trees even, to watching the sun slowly descend in glorious technicolour the whole scene awash with energy. I stood atop the highest dune looking seawards and breathed deep..and was in a zone of bliss which felt truly spiritual.A well needed break...so my local shrine? well..it is good to leave it to nature from time to time, it keeps it fresh, and makes it more interesting when i return next time...as it always subtly changes.Also, the paths i accidently make when coming and going will have become less obvious...so...until the next time....
