Welcome to the In-Between! Today, Thurs. 10/31, we arrive at the crossroads - at a point in our annual solar cycle that has long been designated as the point where the veils between the worlds are at their thinnest, and we honor that threshold and connection between spirits still embodied on the earth plane and those that are in other realms. Halloween, All Hallow's Eve, All Souls Day, Day of the Dead, Samhain - this time is reference in many cultures and known by many names. In Danielle Dulsky's book, Seasons of Moon and Flame, she calls this the "Season of the Thirteenth Moon - Becoming." "There is a holy void that spans the space between autumn's end and winter's birth. This, the thirteenth moon, is a time of nondoing, of rest, of tending to those deeper states of being that remind us of this one wild truth: We are constantly being cocreated, molded, and shaped by cultural, societal, and ancestral hands; by our own memories as we choose to harness them and reexperience time; by our longing; and by our art." "This is the time of sinking back to source, of dropping down into mud. Though there are years when our calendar year contains thirteen moon cycles, most years do not have an entire thirteenth moon cycle. In the Celtic tradition, the thirteenth moon is a brief season that surrounds Samhain, and we are called to wield our intuition and feel this cosmic void when it is upon us rather than rely on a linear calendar. This moon wants us still and quiet. This moon wants us attuned to the ancient pulse, to our most untamed state." "Under the thirteenth moon....Feel into those moments when there is a blessed uncertainty, when some errant thought or external quandary sends you rushing to find resolution, and envision all those wild parts of your psyche coming together and simply being with one another among those firelit immortal trees. Confusion is participation in the grand conversation. Here, we rest, till life and death do us part."
