The golden glow
The divine solar and all of it’s variants have provided purpose, guidance, and direction for so long on this world we take it for granted.
My Grandfather once told me that if there was anything that powered what was going on in this world of ours it would be the sun.
From Apollo steering chariot of the Sun across the heavens, Helios also, as well as Sunna doing the same in the North, to the Buddha being “The Light of Asia”, The Divine aspect of the Sun cannot be celebrated enough.
Ameratsu, Surya, Huitzilopochtli, Dazbog all spent their days illuminating the lives of man.
Such a grand idea we can hardly encompass the whole of it.
Yet my favorite memories bring a taste of such a grand idea.
I remember how the sunlight would filter thru the canopy of magnificent pecan trees in the afternoon. The memory of the sunlight manifestings as rays because of the dust in thr air are almost magical to me. I spent more than a little while on several occasions just admiring the beauty of the golden glow.
And when we made it back to the house, a piece of that fire was inside. A warm fire or a fragrant candle delighted the senses. Not to mention the fires of the cookstove that made young bellies rumble.
Jesus took all of those concepts and pronounced that he was the light of the world. What ever the case may be it seems that the fairest gift to man was to share the light of life.
Even after death there are torches. Such as the one of Hecate who lights the way thru dark places. And our ancestors whose cumulative light the Norse know as the rune Kenaz.
Yes, there is always a light. That glimmer of hope in dark times, that shimmer of life that bathes everything in its realm with a gift.
It is said that the love of the divine is no more selective that the light of the sun.
At some, perhaps primal level, we know this. It is why we carried the seed of the wildfire and all of it’s destruction into our homes to help us along. To cook, to see, and to remember in the cold winter what the summer feels like.
Hard times in our life are the same. We need that reminder of such a light in our life. To remind us that we, no matter the state of our being, are still alive.
All we need to do is step into the light.
To reveal the darkness we believe to exist in ourselves to be burned away by the Golden Glow of a Sun set in place by the Divine in order to show us the way.
Step into the light and do not for one second believe it is not meant for you.
For here you are.
