On July 8 Zpora is scheduled for her last monthly chemotherapy infusion. The schedule of treatment, begun over 2 years ago, is coming to completion and I am hoping that you will join us in Circle of love and gratitude.
Next Tuesday (all day, or for 5 minutes, or the blink of your eye, or beat of your heart) gather your attention in a ritual honoring of the fierce Red Dragon Guardian of life blood.
Draw a long slow breath and call to mind the flowing, red, life-giving, alive, essential, liquid life force that flows in our veins and offer a toast to health and happiness.
Raise a glass of red wine, or cranberry, wild cherry or raspberry juice, enjoy a Bloody Mary, eat strawberries, red meat and beets, light red candles, wear red lipstick, dye your hair (red, of course) draw pictures with red crayons, paint a wall red, make borsht, fill crystal with red water and put it in your windows, sing red songs (an old Wobbly song?) dance a red jig, write a poem in red ink, watch the red sun set, paint your toenails (red?) rename yourself, wear a red dress or baggy red zouaves or flowing red scarf, take a walk and draw hearts on the sidewalk with red chalk, count everything red in your house, wear your grandmother's garnet ring or ruby brooch... BE RED for just this moment.
With deep gratitude to you, in this sacred moment, in this sacred circle.
L'Chaim! To life!
Love,
RubyRed
