Narcissus and the lake

The Alchemist knew the legend of Narcissus, a youth
who daily knelt beside a lake to contemplate his own beauty.
He was so fascinated by himself that, one morning, he fell
into the lake and drowned. At the spot where he fell, a flower
was born, which was called the narcissus.
But this was not how the author of the book ended the
story.
He said that when Narcissus died, the Goddesses of the
Forest appeared and found the lake, which had been fresh
water, transformed into a lake of salty tears.
"Why do you weep?" the Goddesses asked.
"I weep for Narcissus," the lake replied.
"Ah, it is no surprise that you weep for Narcissus," they
said, "for though we always pursued him in the forest, you
alone could contemplate his beauty close at hand."
"But..... was Narcissus beautiful?" the lake asked.
"Who better than you to know that?" the Goddesses said
in wonder, "After all, it was by your banks that he knelt each
day to contemplate himself!!"
The lake was silent for some time.
Finally it said:
"I weep for Narcissus, but I never noticed that Narcissus
was beautiful. I weep because, each time he knelt beside my
banks, I could see, in the depths of his eyes, my own beauty
reflected."
"What a lovely story," the Alchemist thought.

Paint the sky with stars

Suddenly before my eyes
Hues of indigo arise
With them how my spirit sighs
Paint the sky with stars

Only night will ever know
Why the heavens never show
All the dreams there are to know
Paint the sky with stars

Who has paced the midnight sky?
So a spirit has to fly
As the heavens seem so far
Now who will paint the midnight star?
Night has brought to those who sleep
Only dreams they cannot keep
I have legends in the deep
Paint the sky with stars

Who has paced the midnight sky?
So a spirit has to fly
As the heavens seem so far
Now who will paint the midnight star?
Place a name upon the night
One to set your heart alight
And to make the darkness bright
Paint the sky with stars.

Ten of wands

Card Meaning

"Never lose touch with your true hopes or decline to carry the full weight of the commitment you have made to your dreams. There is a special quality to the 10 of Wands, a singleness of purpose that only those who truly believe can know. The most important answer here is the one that concerns your sense of devotion and willingness to endure ~ to attain a personal goal by not giving up on the spiritual desire to really go all the way to the heart of your feelings and earn the kind of personal respect you know you deserve, a sort of validation for your sense of the meaning and value of love.

In the realm of emotions there is no clear way to speak of love as beginning or ending ~ when it is there, and you know you have found it, what does it matter if sometimes it comes a bit closer or when it seems that it goes a little way off just a bit too far? Give to yourself the very thing that you cannot ask of another ~ absolute unconditional love, and then take forward the wondrous burden with no purpose other than to show that what is and has been shall always be love."

You are so beautiful

"By seeing the beauty in every face, we lift others into their wisest self, and increase the chances of hearing a synchronistic message."

A friend

...is someone who knows the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."

- Danish proverb

To keep in mind

"There are two things to keep in mind for today and into the weekend.
(1) If you tell it like it is, which you should, there are some that just won't get it because they don't want to get it and they are content in seeing whatever it is through their own perspectives. Say your truth and move forward, unencumbered by the perceptions of anyone else. Certainly you have enough of your own luggage. Choose wisely as to what goes or stays. Be willing to travel lightly.
And (2) move forward we must. So move forward, not alone, but with faith. Move forward even if you don't know where you're going to end up. Just move forward. Have enough faith to go on the journey even if it seems that you don't know a darn thing about anything, and life as you once knew it now has a whole different perspective. Just move forward, and when you see faith standing out there on the side of the road, pick it up and give it a ride. Sometimes, along with the "hope" that we probably can dig out from somewhere in our glove compartment, it's all we have, and guess what? It makes the best traveling companion."

What is love ?

- “The total absence of fear,” said the Master.
- “What is it we fear?”
- “Love,” said the Master.

Rhiannon

Rhiannon rings like a bell thru the night
And wouldn't you love to love her
She rules her life like a bird in flight
And who will be her lover...

All your life you've never seen
A woman - taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you heaven
Will you ever win...

She is like a cat in the dark
And then she is the darkness
She rules her life like a fine skylark-
And when the sky is starless-

All your life you've never seen-
A woman - taken by the wind
Would you stay if she promised you heaven
Will you ever win...

Dreams unwind.
Love's a state of mind.

- Rhiannon (Stevie Nick)
