PERFECT Hallow

Round about the cauldron go;
In the poison’d entrails throw.
Toad, that under cold stone

Days and nights hast thirty one
Swelter’d venom sleeping got,
Boil thou first i’ the charmed pot.
Double, double toil and trouble;
Fire burn and cauldron bubble.

Shakespeare, Macbeth

PERFECT Birthday

Some people in desperation have turned to witchcraft, magic and occultism, to drugs and madness, anything to rekindle imagination and find a world ensouled. But these reactions are not enough. What is needed is a revisioning, a fundamental shift of perspective out of that soulless predicament we call modern consciousness.

PERFECT Peace

For a day, just for one day,
Talk about that which disturbs no one
And bring some peace into your
Beautiful eyes.

PERFECT Wave

What you are is simply the ocean, which allows every wave of experience to rise and fall. Waves of fear, grief, pain, weakness, frustration, helplessness, and even heartbreak are not a problem for what you are. It is all simply the ocean breathing in and out. In the ocean's depths, there is a peace beyond understanding.

PERFECT Magic

Nothing in life is to be feared, it is only to be understood. Now is the time to understand more, so that we may fear less.
