Sacred Moment

By Mara Clear Spring Cook

Today offers many opportunities to open your spiritual eyes and ears for a sacred moment found in the mundane. The Universal Awareness of the Aquarian Sun actively engages with the Self Awareness Fire of the Aries Moon. Where our spiritual and Earthly selves meet magic happens!

WHAT IS A SACRED MOMENT?

Here’s one of mine:

I began my birthday weekend with a morning walk at our local lake. I sat to meditate within one of the peace wheels when I felt a tug toward the water.

Normally I walk on a dirt trail above the asphalt path way that curves along the fingers of the reservoir. I’ll take dirt over pavement any day, and I encounter critters, rock art and happy dogs along the way.

The “call” to a sacred moment drew me to look across the lake from where I sat at the hub of the peace wheel. I saw a concrete bench down at edge of the water next to a tall eucalyptus. I headed that way.

As I drew closer I noticed the five dark blobs in the white branches. They were a family of turkey vultures warming themselves in the rising sun.

Turkey vultures are relatives to condors and carry similar medicine. What dead things in my life are ready to be released, recycled, repurposed? That could be habits, attachments, stories about myself or other people, etc. What is the truth of this very moment? That’s a very “be here now” kind of question!

This sacred moment was about presence, the “what is” of life.

I sat on a second bench set even closer to the water and surrounded by bushes and shorter trees. Just a few feet away a flock of mallards huddled beneath the low branches. One untucked his head, looked at me, sidled closer, resettled his fluffy self and went back to sleep. They looked so content. My presence did not disturb them in the least.

No time, just sunrise, content wildlife, breath – all of this was my sacred moment where I was me with nothing else. Just me.

Today may you find your sacred moment many times, in many ways.

Make this a day to ROAR about!

Namaste,

Mara
