[Thespiritexpress] Gratitude back attcha......

[Toni Bernbaum]

Dear Spirit House Family,  
Ah, yes…..the circle of gratiude goes round and round……and here we are on Sunday evening with the new Moon in Libra to help support our intentions
from the Equinox Ceremony…. to find ways of re-Sourcing ourselves to cultivate more balance and harmony in our lives. 

We took our time cleaning up. It was a leisuriely process working while still in the glow of appreciation…. the beautiful and perfect weather Friday night…grandfather fire
whose smoke went strainght up to the heavens, for the warm and balmy evening, for bright shining stars in the heavens and also glowing in the hearts
of everyone who joined the circle for the Equinox. Thank you everyone who contributed with amazing food, generous donations
and loving presence.  Ron and I were thrilled be back on the home turf! Spirit House was indeed very happy to greet those of you who did your ritual within her womb-like candle lit earthen walls…… 
you probably agree
the spacious emptiness was actually filled with magic and the power of Gaia and was rather awe-inspiring as she welcomed us back “home.”  

Thank you Sue for your beautiful note and all those who echoed their gratitude.  Again, thanks to Sue and Eric who helped out on Friday bringing much more ease and flow to setting up than ever before.

And thank you Doug and Ron for the amazing music……and for those of you who stepped up to bring in the directions, and David for the astro report…..these gatherings are indeed a community affair and everyone
who shows up makes it was it is for all of us.

I have been asked to share the poem I read by Toni Carmine Salerno…who I might add is a visionary artist and creator of Oracle Decks.  Check out his website for some amazing material.


Within the garden of your heart a beautiful soul exists
the beautiful soul is you

This moment
with no beginning or end
no point of entry

no leaving
coming or going
just uncontaiable life

unpredictable 
like these words
trying to express the inexpressible

like light flickering through clouds of illusion
like a flame glowing inside us
and every leaf and blade of grass

for we are all flames of the sacred fire
burning our way through time
and all that lies beyond it

we are this most sacred Earth
and air
and water

the faint memory of an ancient sun
that still glows inside us

and crimson leaves
falling through 
gold light. 

May this new season bring an abundant harvest as you look inside at all that has come to pass as part of your one-and-only presence on this earth walk……to ponder all the many people you touched and helped in ways perhaps, you will never know,  to be able to celebrate your power as a co-creator here to express and receive love and to be able to feel the gratitude for your life, your friends and family, your work, your health, even to be grateful for the things that are difficult or more challenging …but to be able to celebrate life and existence exactly as it is…. that is indeed a powerful thing to reflect on…. and the gift of truly living an abundant life.

Love and Blessings Always,  Toni
