SPIRIT OF WISDOM



“He who binds to himself a joy

Does the winged life destroy

But he who kisses that joy as it flies

Lives in eternity’s sunrise.”

William Blake


Appearing to me today along with the Hawthorne Tree, Oshahè:ta Ohì:kta, Spirit of Wisdom speaks to me so clearly that the most beautiful things, the deepest knowledge often lies protected by thorns and tangles. Part of Wisdom, for me, is knowing that the things that I cannot grasp have value and power and, once we grasp this knowledge, we place it in amber, we make it a dead thing. Wisdom lives beyond mere knowledge. Wisdom, like Magic, as a form of Magic, for the Magi were also known as Wise Men, seeks refuge, as the tender things do in Oshahè:ta Ohì:kta, in the Hawthorn Tree, behind the tangles and thorns that keep grasping hands away. True Wisdom, the Spirit of Wisdom is a tender winged thing that we would hold on to with all our might and choke the life, the light, out of. It must be protected from our brutish grasp, from our need to hold, to freeze, to reduce. For real Wisdom we must seek the Hawthorns in our minds, we must seek the Oshahè:ta Ohì:kta within and without ourselves. That, for me, on this day, at this moment is what the Spirit of Wisdom in conjunction with Oshahè:ta Ohì:kta, with the Hawthorn, has allowed me to glimpse. Not to know. Not to grasp. But to keep tangled up and thorned beyond my need to grasp. That to me, today, is the very Spirit of Wisdom.
