Taureans

I have known nothing about the sign, which is funny since one of my owm children is one – but my children do not present as typical, which I am proud of because they are unique and their own individuals.

However, since I have wanted to know more about Taureans, they are suddenly “here, there, and everywhere” around me – having some common traits, but being very unique in their own expressionism.

This is very different from those people with the earth sign of Capricorn, which at times can have a very decided inflexibility of the mind and firm barriers around their hearts.

It seems that if you earn the trust of a Taurus, their hearts’ devotion will be with you until the end from the start.

A Healing Talent

Her heart was tuned to seek that secret potential of hope’s determination which lies dormant in each and every one of us until found and sparked to life by another.

Recognizing that the time and place in which she was born was long suppressed by human ignorance, she began watching for those moments when she would find someone seemingly swept ashore.

She would then extend a hand to help lift them up again and share awareness about their worth and abilities to carry forward with them as they’d continue to grow.

A Loving Dream

I had an earlier boyfriend who had also always kept me at emotional distance.

We would share intimacy and deep discussions, but he had been hurt by someone he had loved before me, so expressed his pain by barring me.

He hungered for the affection that I was giving him, but felt conflicted by receiving it.

In later rare dreaming of him, I would always be remimded of the unwarranted sting of rejection, as if my giving love to him was a sin.

But last night, he and I were in a room with another person, and for some reason, we were all brushing our hair.

He used to have this amazing golden-sheened, straight blond hair cut to shoulder length which naturally flipped like a bob with delicate ends curling under.

As we tended our untanglings, I looked over at him – and he gave me a secret look letting me know he remembered our time together.

I felt included at last and welcomed the releass of invitation as I watched him brush those haloed strands cascading against his chin, neck, and shoulders in the weight of their fall.

It was wonderful to be loved by his acceptance and to share this memory with someone who had once felt close to kindred with my soul.

Memories Of Egypt

As I returned to the masjid after a too long absence, women were arriving to prepare for breaking the Ramadan fast together.

I was invited to stay and eat with them, but I only wanted to pray in solitude. I need to attend to my internal wounds and find a way to heal them.

It made me need to cry when I saw their lovely, curly-haired children. One or more of my own could have joined them after a few seasons.

I would like dispensation to pray alone when no one else is present. I need to obtain that sense of Source and feel bathed as sink into its element.

For now, a prayer rug adorns an antique cabinet I collected, and I take occasional sustenance from Medjool Dates – reminding me of the homeland.

Ancestral Dictates

It has been my goal to pre-identify, leap to the side, and avoid those presets in viral behaviorism which cause us to repeat harm to current and next generations that then propagate humanity’s descent into oblivion.

Unfortunately, if one’s partner adheres only to their family’s bias and ancestral rhythms, any attempt to reconfigure and innovate can cause the proactivist to be met by resistance, blame, and persecution as “a sinner.”

Michael Landon (1936-1991)

I dreamed last night that I passed by him at some busy event and stopped to thank him with tears of heartfelt emotion streaming from my eyes.

He had been one of the main positive male/father role models that I could count on as a child.

By the characters he chose to play, he gave me strength to cling to my higher moral values and to maintain the belief that love and kindness should always be at the core of any answer.
