Lunar Madness?

Hi everyone! As you can see I added some pics of the moon and lunar themed music to my page...and no...I haven't become a werewolf. LOL. I normally don't share a lot of inner-personal things in my blogs, but I thought this would be a good time to share that I needed to rekindle this wonderful fascination with the moon that I had when I was a kid.

I used to sneak out onto my roof with my blankets and pillow and stay up all night just staring at the moon. It was magical to me. I seemed to have lost that connection and fascination as I grew up and that is sad to me. There really isn't anything more beautiful and mysterious as the moon.

I am sharing this because several months ago I went into a deep meditation and had a moving experience wherein I was told that I, in certain respects, had ventured off the path for the purpose of my life and I needed to reconnect with the Moon and She would lead me back to my path. What did this mean? I still am not entirely sure. And like with many things, even with profound messages, I forgot about it the next day and went on with my life.

These past few days I have been going through a lot of the old 80s music that I loved so much as a teen and listened to three of my old favorites "Sister Moon" "Moon Over Bourbon Street", and "Little Wing" all by Sting (Moon Over Bourbon Street was written by Sting after he read the Vampire Chronicles by Anne Rice. They are amazing books, which I think I might reread now). Wonderful and enchanting songs. When I was young I used to make-believe that the song Little Wing was a love song written about me and my Love, the Moon. :) I know that sounds really silly but its true. And this struck a deep cord within me. I had lost that fascination with my old love, the Moon. She still holds her sway. As any Cancer will tell you the Moon has a special place in their hearts. I remembered what my Inner Self had told me several months ago about reconnecting with the Moon and this, as you can see on my page, is a small rekindling of this fascination and love. This has been a deep part of me that has been locked away for many, many years.

I don't know really why I am sharing this with you. Maybe because I am lonely tonight. Restless. It feels good to share things like this. Yes, it may make me seem weird to some of you, but what can I say? I really am a pretty normal guy, I am just pretty deep I guess. Though its easy to become shallow as we age and become so wrapped up in the world.

My hope in sharing this is that maybe someone who reads this may also find that something that they need to reconnect with. To find that depth again, that wonder, that fascination.
