COLLAPSE, MOTHER by Dawn Perez
All your life,
you’ve been told to hold it in.
Hold in your gut, woman,
Don’t let them think you’re fat.
Hold in your feelings, mother,
Don’t let them think you’re hysterical.
Hold in your worry, dear,
Don’t let them think you’re psychotic.
Hold in your grief, mama,
Don’t let them see the pain in your heart.
Hold in your rage, woman,
Don’t let them think you’re unrefined, wild, feral, magick.
When you hold it all inside you,
Do you feel empowered?
Or do you feel exhausted?
You don’t have to hold it in any longer, child,
I’m here.
You’re safe.
Give it up.
Let it out.
Release it.
Let it go.
Collapse, mother.
Cry your tears and let them
Permeate the earth with their healing power.
You gut,
Your feelings,
Your worry,
Your grief,
Your rage.
It’s all love, mother.
It’s a part of you.
Embrace it, allow it.
Breathe it in.
Let it go.

"Right now, Jupiter, Venus, Mars and Saturn are lined up in the morning sky, tracing the ecliptic plane--a.k.a. 'the backbone of the Solar System.' It's a striking display that will get even better as April comes to an end. Venus and Jupiter are converging for the finest conjunction of 2022. On April 30th and May 1st, the two planets will be only a fraction of a degree apart, so close that some onlookers may think they have merged." https://www.spaceweather.com/archive.php?view=1&day=20&month=04&year=2022 • https://t.me/SpontaneousCosmology/5172, https://t.me/IntuitivePublicRadio/10163

en years before, in 1853, the Persian government had exiled Baha’u’llah to Baghdad, fearing the rapid spread of his teachings and their progressive impact on society. In April of 1863, because his teachings continued to spread and threaten the clerics, Baha’u’llah faced a second exile, as described by Jinab-i-Fadil in “Star of the West, Volume 8”:
At last the enemies of the Cause secured from the government authorities an order banishing Baha’u’llah from Baghdad. It first read that he should go, alone. But later this was changed, permitting his family and a few followers to accompany him. The band of exiles left Baghdad and paused, first, in a beautiful garden outside the city. Here they sojourned for twelve days. A tent was pitched for Baha’u’llah, and around it the tents for the others. These days in the garden are called “The days of Ridvan” and they are of supreme importance, for it was then that Baha’u’llah declared, to a few followers, his great mission and began to build the palace of peace and unity for the world. He revealed many wonderful verses which sing the melodies of the New Day of God.
