Wishing all the mothers a very Happy Mothers Day. This poem was recently voted as Ireland’s favourite poem of last 100 years. It feels very apt for this time. Enjoy…. In Memoriam M.K.H., 1911-1984 When all the others were away at Mass I was all hers as we peeled potatoes. They broke the silence, let fall one by one Like solder weeping off the soldering iron: Cold comforts set between us, things to share Gleaming in a bucket of clean water. And again let fall. Little pleasant splashes From each other’s work would bring us to our senses. So while the parish priest at her bedside Went hammer and tongs at the prayers for the dying And some were responding and some crying I remembered her head bent towards my head, Her breath in mine, our fluent dipping knives– Never closer the whole rest of our lives. Seamus Heaney

It’s a beautiful initiation which really opens the heart to greater depth of love and truth. It increases our capacity to bring healing to ourselves and others. It brings healing to the family line and helps clear patterns which are no longer relevant or prevent us from living in that place of love and truth. The Aqua energy that is activated through this initiation is very vibrant. It has a playful aspect. It opens us further to our own unique creativity. It strengthens and helps ground people. I have noticed people have started new projects, past times , exercise regimes etc. This initiation expands our Consiousness and offers an opportunity for real and consistent growth. It’s a lovely day of caring for self. The venue is Clonocody House Fethard. Co Tipperary. The investment is 425 euro.
