"Within all things, the elixir which transpires it's creation; the proceedings of its language found within the augment of translation, the understanding beyond chaos and order and of mutual understanding and stupor. Life beseats those who engulf curiosity with compassionate companionship, a language reminiscent of one's potential worship."

"Within burning embers, the remnants of burning passion reigns; kindling in the depths of soot, transitioning like an apparition which engulfs the air of its elusive nature, for it rules unnoticed and invisible— to the trained eye, however; it is a sight to behold, to watch as it dances in pure ecstacy in the freedom of its own rite. Swirling above like a beast in sumpter. The veil begins to draw thin... a new dimension appears."

"In begotten skies, many sit idle; patiently waiting on its replies whispering in the wind which spirals above in solace, to reveal its messages to Man— who openly defies the One Thing which lies inside— shackled by comforts which arise when Man refuses to see what Man denies. Misunderstandings by what we perceive, we stand idle in selfishness when we cannot, and will not, recognize that such divinity that we see in an enchanting creation of the Natural world is a reminder to dig deeper within; and come prepared with the realization that we merely are destined for conscious reason to align with the subtleties of a language powerful enough to provoke inquiry with a speech so quiet it is merely non-existent, that in order to listen and understand its lessons we must first practice observing and listening without our ears, but with a gentle notion of Wisdom that falls upon us like rain during times of great drought."

"The plight of adversity besets one whom chooses to make amends within the sanctions and sanctity of ones self not yet discovered, when comfort becomes unstable; and illusion begins to break along the fall of Man. It is through the idea of their pre-conceived character, that Man is nothing which the tongue can speak of— but the moment which pure gnosis of its wisdom is manifested into this physical existence, such truth becomes only a fragment, for nothing represents and depicts all of what is of such beauty within this divine action— all of the Natural World and its Law is a glimpse within the pervasiveness from what is seen and unseen. Beyond fractals of human condition expands an experience not suited for limitations of mind; yet connected by a notion of being. The nudge of its truth needs no ideology, as it is all of you. For the one who has the courage to see, it lives with you; it lives through you. The catalyst of its movement shall rain down upon disillusionment until nothing remains, it is there where the remainder of you shall be discovered."

"Meditation, not in the act of emotion; not in the act of thought, nor an action of doing, but in a state of being. The practice is deepen through the depths of such awareness, the deeper of ones meditation, the deeper their understanding of their awareness; that in all things the One is found." -Mise-n-abyme

"If I were to engage our sorrows for happier tomorrows, What would our life appear as, and everything which follows? The desire shaped for ourselves someday are but little pieces of what we think we lack today, And our souls conjures these images held steadily in our mind, Within liminal landscapes which time borrows The array of images we paint on this day, the realities for many whom hope to remain When the day comes for us to shine Beyond its illusion.. What is it that you shall find? When we engage our sorrows for happier tomorrows Would everything appear the same, or take the path yearning for today— to seek what follows beyond all sorrows?"

"The mind is a playground of wonder, a ripple of imagination in presence within the midst of stillness, standing feats of purposeness within nothingness— in contentious spirit of flesh and soul, for desires to be whole. To dabble into the unknown, attune with a heart of wisdom to see what is shown in the land of Silver and Gold."

"None of what is done can be undone, but to put forth your best effort into mutual understandings can be achieved with effort and the right amount of perseverance. After effort; a state of effortless, after perseverance; a state of deliverance.
Your faith dwells within the amount in which you see yourself to be— if you reflect back in the image of everything; you see the divinity within you. If you see no reflection, no faith, for faith outside of oneself delves in illusion— but internal faith, the eternal faith, is everything. As it is in everything; patiently waiting.
The voice of the world echoes through the universal beat within us all; we, the vessels of such story, hear the gentle whispers calling:
"Who is the voice of your destiny?"

"Mabon, also known as the Autumn Equinox, is a celebratory holiday based off of many ancient traditions, most notably from the Pagan tradition. It is the time of true Fall, and the time of harvest season; where nature and energies naturally shed their fruits for the season and the equilibrium of the sun in correlation with the Earth, where day and night are in equal balance.
This is the time of preparation for the coldness of Winter, where leaves naturally begin to discolor and shed, to wilt and eventually decompose and nourish the soils of their maker; as to prepare for hibernation. Although it may look as though everything has died— the plants, fauna; and flora take this time out of the season to shed what no longer serves them.
It is the time where Man marvels at the primordial intelligence surrounding them. What we have discovered, plants do not merely die during this time; but focus instead on preserving their nutrients from within. Nature shares all of its glory with the rest of the world, yet knows when the wind calls upon them to harbor within themselves.
For Man, this is a time of celebration; as it is the time of peak abundance at harvest, where people enjoy the fruits of their long-awaited labors and a time of reflection at the progress they made throughout the year. Did they harvest abundance, or not so much? Is this merely a reflection of the fruits of the Sower's spirit, which nature presents for one to recognize the temperament of their character?
Just as nature runs its course, so do we as a people; for we are also a collective of this enigmatic, and astounding, speck of nature. Just as we shed all of what we know during this season, Winter calls upon moments of solace the air— a time of reflection of the past year, and follows with harsh bitter winds, heeding us to let go and continue upon the upcoming year. What we can change, what we can improve; what we have accomplished..
...And will accomplish.
Winter calls upon us to contemplate on the human experience, and presents us the opportunity to nourish ourselves in a time of preservation where food is often scarce.
It is a time to recognize and see the things which may not have been sought; an opportunity to see beyond what we thought of ourselves and implement it for the coming season to 'Spring' into action, with the knowledge and wisdom we have discovered about ourselves.
For some, Winter may be seen as dark and gloomy, but for others; it is a sign of relief, to start new once more. To enjoy the abundance nature has given them throughout the Winter. This is the time of bonfires, a symbolic representation of the Primordial fire that harbors within us, which kindles a flame from within to hold out the harsh coldness of the seasons; to warm us and comfort us in these lower seasons, a time where herbs may be set within the bonfire to ward off the negative energies that may pass through in the darker periods of light.
The next chapter awaits us in our book of changes. What is it that you will find upon your journey?" ~Mise-n-abyme

"Many days where illusion sits, many men quietly await. It is the responsibility to hold one accountable to the false pretenses of this world through the ugliness and beauty of it all; as its illusion will slowly begin to creep and ensnare the one least diligent in this realization, cocooned and harbored within illusions wispy web.
If one is aware that within each moment, with each circumstance, sits a hidden depth of phony interaction of moments and memories— when one can see such illusion, one's greater sense may determine that all of what is left is beyond the things which cannot fully be seen in physicality, yet through merit of physicality, one can feel what is true, and in the midst of living may experience the full experience of this life and human condition.
The unfortunate situation one may face, however, is that the false may greatly outweigh what is true. It is through discernment of truth which we may guide ourselves to the goldmine of such truth; to know that all of what glitters isn't gold, that true knowledge and wisdom can never be sold. The true form of freedom lies through experience of speaking the language of the soul, for a soul exists without a mold." ~Mise-n-abyme

"If life is defined by our truth of experience, what can be said about the experiences which are left in the abyss of unknowns for one to speculate? Curiosity reveals itself in all aspects of Man, whether in greatness or little subtlety— the definition of such may be explained differently and perhaps uniquely according to the individual, yet what is the definition of what has yet to be discovered? Here lies an extraordinary realization: that life has no definition— no order of thinking, until it becomes discovered by Man; where it then is defined according to their own experience and observation. What then becomes of that which lies in-between the circumstance of Man's definition of experienced life and the pure, unbounded, experience which has yet to be discovered within life? In between the inner-workings of Mind and Spirit, where may your heart lay?"

"Do not worry or fester in times that may be seen in brave circumstances; opportunity will be near, be blessed in what you hold dear, be wary to what may appear to veer you away by what is clear. For your flame does not die, as you are the frontier to what you revere." ~Mise-n-abyme
