Dear Friends - As we slide into the waning light of September, to meet the balance of the Equinox, I am especially endeavoring to hear what the Elemental Beings have to say. The Spirit behind Nature waits for our exchange, for it must be mutual, & initiated first by us, before the final withering. We are to bring them the Resurrection forces that come thru our human thinking; then they are released from the grip of the death forces that the adversarial beings would have them enslaved to.

Feast of the Cross – According to legend the True Cross was discovered in 326 by Saint Helena, the mother of the Roman Emperor Constantine the Great, during a pilgrimage she made to Jerusalem. The Church of the Holy Sepulchre was then built at the site of the discovery, by order of Helena & Constantine. The church was dedicated nine years later, on this same date, with a portion of the cross placed inside it. Other legends explain that in 614, that portion of the cross was carried away from the church by the Persians, & remained missing until it was recaptured by the Byzantine Emperor Heraclius in 628. Initially taken to Constantinople, the cross was returned to the church in 629.
