by Rohini Walker The days of dwindling light are officially upon us here in the northern hemisphere. I write to you from a gusty Mojave high desert, where the cooling temperatures are greedily welcomed after another merciless and revelatory summer. We have just exited the season of the ancient Egyptian goddess, Ma’at – symbolized by the scales of Libra, the constellation in which the sun was recently in residence – and are well on our way towards the renewal of death, the…

Letters from Luna – The Migration of Memory, Part II
Posted on March 23, 2021by Rohini Walker Click here The Migration of Memory, Part I It’s the in-between time here in the Mojave high desert, as winter shapeshifts into spring. Calm, sunny days are peppered with winds so wild, it’s a wonder the house doesn’t end up in some other, other-worldly faraway. On days like this from my remote spot, the wide vistas swirl with haboob-like dust devils, and eyes smart and sting if you have to venture outdoors for some outlandish reason. Today is one of…

Letters from Luna – The Daemon’s Vision: Continued Excursions into Soul-Making
Posted on February 1, 2021by Rohini Walker In a previous installment of Letters from Luna, we began some initial explorations into the nature of the soul – what Mary Oliver described as the ‘Third Self’, and James Hillman, borrowing from the ancient Greeks, called the ‘daimon’ or ‘daemon.’ This is – for me and for countless others who place inestimable worth on a commitment of intimacy with what is mysterious, ever-changing, and vastly precious within us – a tireless topic. It is to live within a state of gossamer…

Letters from luna: A word on the wyrd
Posted on January 18, 2021by Rohini Walker A gentle summation of the year 2020, and – in here the U.S. – these first weeks of 2021, would be highly, deeply weird. We’re living in strange times. Yet, for those of us who have been paying attention for preceding years, decades even, and who recognize the cyclical, ever-in-flux nature of the universe, this weird, troubling moment in humanity’s story is unavoidably necessary. Radical change needs powerful pattern interrupts. It needs the seething underbelly of a…

Letters from Luna: Meaning as Quintessence
Posted on September 26, 2020Scroll down for an audio version of thisinstallment of Letters from Luna. by Rohini Walker What does meaning mean to you? As I write this, I observe the various objects on my desk and environs. Things that I have chosen and placed around me for more than their externality; things that, when touched or looked at, evoke a certain feeling or memory, called forth from within the object I am wordlessly communing with. Here’s an incomplete inventory: a small jade…
