Seeing not a star in the sky tonight, and the Gibbous moon peaking silently through the clouds
I walk towards the St. Charles Streetcar. Shadows move across the New Orleans garden district.
Stopping me in my hurried tracks, a magnificent glistening sculpture,
a diaphanous web and then an incredible sight.
A tiny spider hanging in mid air, gymnastic prowess beyond any human counterpart appears without visible threads of support.
Hanging by an invisible yarn – a small and reverberating miracle.
This graceful acrobat floats inches from my face
He watches me, all of those eight limbs in cautious repose. then artfully drops to the ground.
For a brief moment I am amazed.
Is this a common, everyday miracle? Or an act of wonder that can astonish and delight our soul.

Miracles of Murzim or Mirzam are announcing themselves
Just as Murzim rises before Sirius with a sharp bark - an important message to impart.
Just as Murzim lifts his paw in the constellation Canis Major joining the pack of Orion’s hunting dogs,
we sometimes avoid the impact of Murzim and are blinded by Sirius the Scorcher.
These miracles are often times missed, hardly ever cherished or applauded or even memorable...
unless we attend assiduously , with all our senses keen and razor sharp.
Unless we choose not to be lost in daily adventures,
those undertakings that create and experience this menagerie we call life.
Murzims is gentle compared to Sirius, allowing us to finally see the arrival and blessings of everyday miracles.

The sight and scent of flowering magnolia and perfumed gardenia has me enthralled.
Spring is in full bloom this year.despite the torrential rains.
Even today el Sol has shown his dazzling face at the most unusual times.
If one listens oh so carefully,
one can hear the Gods speak or see and feel the Goddess in all her glory.
In every aspect, in every eye and resonating in every soulful beat.

It is the season of the Night-Seer,
the Shamanic Return, the time of the Jaguar-Priest and Priestess…
we now know the Goddess is here to recover the Gold Earth.
Murzim announces.
We began to know from whence we come,
whether it be the future or the past or whether to change the flow of time and history.

Suddenly the sky clears and a star catches my eye.
Another view of the moon between the billowy grey mass floating overhead,
I notice the waxing moon becoming brighter and brighter – a moon of evaluation of the outer world.
This is a moon that may bring major climactic changes.
A moon that causes to me look towards the dog star, Sirius
Off to the right, a persistent light proclaims himself.
Murzim is becoming more insistent about speaking his message to the universe.
No matter from what future we originate,
we are here embracing the awareness of the ordinary miraculous moments,
precious events of Murzim domain.
