The night sea journey takes you back to your primordial self, not the heroic self that burns out and falls to judgement, but to your original self, yourself as a sea of possibility, your greater and deeper being. Night sea journey is a cosmic passage taken as a metaphor for our own dark nights, when we are trapped in a mood or by external circumstances and can do little but sit and wait for liberation. The darkness is natural, one of the life processes.--Thomas Moore

Madonna and The Kabbalah
I have always enjoyed Madonna's music from the early dance club hits through her more meaningful and boundary stretching stuff, right up to her most recent Cd HARD CANDY! The next two songs I am posting don't need lots of my words since their meaning is so deep and obvious. The first song is FROZEN from her Ray of Light Cd. These songs were written by the spiritual inspiration obtained by her study of the Kabala.......Here is an overview from Kabbalah.com
Kabbalah — the world’s oldest body of spiritual wisdom — contains the long-hidden keys to the secrets of the universe as well as the keys to the mysteries of the human heart and soul. Kabbalistic teachings explain the complexities of the material and the non material universe, as well as the physical and metaphysical nature of all humanity
The next song is The Power of Goodbye from Ray of Light. I love this song and think of the power endings can potentially have in their ability to generate energy, transformation, conviction, freedom, and new kinds of light even in darkness! The ability to let go is a way of transcending ourselves and giving room for new beginnings and creative forces!
