Poetry by JYN Star


I am happy to annouce my brand new Poetry Blog entiled Poetry by JYN Star. My poems, along with other art and poetry that inspires me will be posted on that blog....I also feature my first original piece posted on my new blog below:

 

Le Soleil

Copyright © 2012 JYN Star

Searching for the sun, I am
The son of God
The sun of man

Round a wheel
He cycles through
Marking seasons
As times renew

A cosmic traveller
The light of Man
Searching for the sun, I am

December 21st he's born anew
March 21 he finds balance and dew
The Ram springs forth with his selfish ways
Marching up the hill towards his glory day

But, with every high you have a low
Down into the Underworld
He falls below

Above tis a time
To rest and stay in
Also known as Hel
During other ages of Man

In those days
The goddess played a role
The days of matriarchy
In times of old

When Gods and Goddesses
Shared powers of creation
Not only one man
Served as the savior,
And Salvation...

Does he have a partner in sight?
In fact he does,
She shines at night

This lifetime
My tribe, worships thee
Yet, in my search I came to see
Perhaps, Akenahten planted the seed?

The tribe is worried
And fear runs wild
There is much to learn
This is a time to discern

Most know very little;
They block out truth
Light evades them, the dark enslaves them

Yet the Water Bearer is here!
To release them from fear...

Afraid of knowledge and divination
Many truths pushed aside
For even Saul sought Endor's counsel in disguise
Herbal knowledge represents the wise

The herd is asleep
Living their daily lives as sheep
Asleep and unaware
Pushing truth away
Too much to bear

The Archangel of the Sun knew this all was bothering me
I kept asking myself 'why are so many sheep asleep?'
He arrived from my right
I saw truth in the light

He said: "The sleeping sheep are serving their use
Not ALL are meant to awaken to truth
So just let the sleeping sheep run along
While you continue to create
Always remember it's okay to sing your own song"

Dream, Love, Believe... ~JYN

Midsummer~ Summer Solsitice 2012



The longest day of the year is here!  Yesterday we experienced our second consecutive new moon in Gemini. Then the moon moved into its home sign of Cancer, where it still is today.  The sun moves into Cancer at 7:08pm tonight. Midsummer is considered a time to connect with the realm of the Fey, in fact they have been popping up all over my posts here and also on my Tarot Blog (seek and ye shall find!). 

Also, I found a great article of the astronomical influences of the Summer Solstice, check it out for information on how the Solstice has been celebrated by various cultures throughout the world, and how we are being affected by axial tilt (the reason for the Solstice) here on Earth.

For me this day has been filled with magic!  I sat under, and connected with the Elm tree in my front yard, gifting it with a small piece of rose quartz tumble stone.  I also recently found a branch loose within my Elm tree's branches, a gift from the realm of spirit (based on the symbolism of the tree, and how its branches represent the higher realms).  So, I brought the branch down for my dog, intrigued by the tree I looked up more information on the the Elm Tree, and was amazed at the sync experience of discovering the Elm tree was linked to the realm of Elves and the Fey...so now I have my branch gifted by the Elm, and with it a new creative project is on the horizon...

Ask and ye shall receive.
Dream, Love, Believe... ~JYN
