Leave the Light on For Me

Posted on by Spyder Webb

Leave the Light on For Me FAA SmallTwilight. The crack between worlds. A time of power when it’s neither day or night, but something in between. It’s a time when medicine people of many indigenous cultures slip more easily into the vast landscape of spirit.

But it’s a journey that sometimes risks danger, and so the traveler to those far lands does well to have something to call her and guide her back should she risk staying too long. The sound of a drum. Chanting.

A light.

To those who travel in the twilight: look for the drum, the song. Listen for the light.

Winter Afternoon Sky

WInter Afternoon Sky FAA SmallYes, this started as a photograph, and I’ve enhanced the image beyond what you normally see with the naked eye. Kind of like what you do with a telescope, or infrared film, or night vision equipment.

Except this is none of those things.

I’ve enhanced this image to reveal what is energetically there, or put another way, emotionally or spiritually. Our eyes can so easily overlook the deep reality beyond what they’re evolved so well to do, which is to give us information necessary for physical survival.

This is what art has done from time immemorial. It has given us a window to see through to what lies beyond that which is merely essential, merely necessary. Yes, you can live on bread and water, you can live without friendship, or without passion. At least your body can survive.

No matter how beautiful the world is to our physical senses, we can always go deeper. And then deeper still. As awesome as the physical world is, and it truly is, there is more. So much more.

Sunset on the Farm

Sunset on the Farm FAA Small

The road and the farmhouse almost merge with the natural landscape. But the human homes are no less part of nature than the birds’ nests, the foxes’ dens, the soft hiding places of the deer and the bear that share our land. It’s a great reminder of living in harmony with nature, of which we are of course a part no less than our cousin earthlings of different species.

And then there’s that magnificent sky, with its clouds both protecting us and reminding us of how vast it is out there beyond our few acres of homes. I wonder if those clouds have some sort of transient group consciousness as they hover and travel above us and below the higher levels of our atmosphere?

Sometimes it’s just enough that they’re there, moving, breathing, delighting us.
