“The more separated we become from the Earth, the more hostile we become to the feminine. We disown our passion, our creativity, and our sexuality. Eventually the Earth itself becomes a baneful place. I remember being told by a medicine woman in the Amazon, “Do you know why they are really cutting down the rain forest? Because it is wet and dark and tangled and feminine.” KnowsEarthRememberPassionDarkCreativityCuttingRainMedicineSexualityForestsFeminineDo You KnowWetHostileAmazonTangledCutting Down Book:Shaman, Healer, Sage Source: Shaman, Healer, Sage
“Cautiously, I allowed myself to feel good at times. I found moments of peace in cheap rooms just staring at the knobs of some dresser or listening to the rain in the dark. The less I needed the better I felt.” FeelsMomentsFoundFeltDarkRoomsListeningNeededRainFeel GoodStaringKnobsDressers Author:Charles Bukowski
“You sleep with a dream of summer weather, wake to the thrum of rain—roped down by rain. Nothing out there but drop-heavy feathers of grass and rainy air. The plastic table on the terrace has shed three legs on its way to the garden fence. The mountains have had the sense to disappear. It's the Celtic temperament—wind, then torrents, then remorse. Glory rising like a curtain over distant water. Old stonehouse, having steered us through the dark, docks in a pool of shadow all its own. That widening crack in the gloom is like good luck. Luck, which neither you nor tomorrow can depend on.” WayDreamThreeWaterDarkSleepAirWindDependsTomorrowMountainSummerGloryShadowRainGardenTablesLuckHeavyLegsDisappearWeatherGrassRisingCracksPoolPlasticShedFenceCurtainsFeathersRemorseTemperamentGood LuckGloomRainyCelticDocksTerraceThree LegsSummer Weather Author:Anne Stevenson
“When I'm awake all night, sometimes I see the people and the city waking up around me. I feel a little bit moody at them for stepping into my night-time. What I want is that feeling when you're in the rain, or a storm. It's a shiver at the edge of your mind, an atmosphere of hearing a sad, distant sound, but it seems closer - like it's just for you. Like hearing rain or a whale-song, a cry in the dark, the far cry.” PeopleWantFeelsMindLittlesSometimesFeelingsSeemsNightSongBitsSoundDarkCitiesCryLittle BitRainWake UpEdgesHearingStormAtmosphereAwakeWakingAll NightWhalesShiverNight TimeMoody Author:Burial
