Embrace the darkness as a creative space
{A new moon meditation message}
Darkness is more than the absence of light. It is the possibility of light. The expectation and anticipation of light then can and will arise.*
Embrace the darkness as a creative space. A tomb. A womb. A quiet place.
From this void allow your true hopes to emerge, and with them, the light will come.

*[My logical mind wants to correct this language, to make it say that when we expect and anticipate light, then light can and will appear (arise). Yet the words here are clear: It is in first recognizing possibility that expectation and anticipation can follow. The promise of fulfillment happens later—according to this message, after your true hopes emerge from the creative space of darkness.]

This whole thing is lovely, and, reading your footnotes in particular so often feels like looking in a mirror. (I have myself composed multiple footnotes today.)
