This poem was inspired
by the power and sacredness of the number thirteen…
Around
the time when I wrote this poem I began to understand how thirteen is not the
unlucky number it’s believed to be nowadays. In ancient times, 13 was a number
that was revered for its sacredness. It was seen as a magic symbol of transformation,
as a number that encapsulated regeneration and great change.
For
instance, in ancient Egypt it was believed that there were 12 steps on the
ladder to Eternal Life, and the13th step is that of immortality. And in
the Lunar Cycle the 13th month represents the end and the beginning: the ending
of a cycle, which brings about the beginning. Thirteen means facing the old to
start anew.
I
know for myself and for many of my brothers and sisters, this year of 2013 has
been a year of Death and Rebirth. By walking through the doorway of the
number 13, we faced our darkest shadows and a new ground was created. I
awoke from slumber, the "I" was reclaimed, and The Family once again
reunited, converging back into the One, where there’s love.
You
are the 13
"You
are the 13"
The construct of
Fragmented Reality
Courting between
Order and Chaos
Shadows of the same
Dawn
Mirroring of Soul
desires
Flesh and
bones
Mere stories
Dancers in reverence
to the movements of the Absolute
Temporarily away
from the Garden
But reminded always
when walking on Native Soil
Template of the 12
Shaken violently
from such long sleep
Downloads
overwhelmingly with the acceleration of Galatic Portals opening
No slowing
The Sacred and the
One
You are the 13
