From the elemental cosmic landscape of Earth, Air, Water and Space, the Medicine Buddha manifests on a multi-colored lotus throne. Deep lapis blue in color, like a brilliantly clear jewel, the Buddha holds a myrobalan herb in his right hand and offers its healing benefits to ease the sufferings of humanity. His left hand rests in a meditation position, holding a begging bowl with medicinal plants. Tradition tells that merely reciting the name of The Medicine Buddha will bring spiritual benefit. Meditation upon his image brings healing of body and soul.

Archangel Michael

According to the Talmud, the name Michael means ‘like unto god’; the title Archangel means ‘highest messenger’.

Traditionally, Michael is known as the most powerful of all the Archangels, as defender of humanity against satanic forces, the great warrior of God. Legend speaks of Michael as the teacher of Moses and the protector of the Israelites in the Old Testament. In the Christian tradition he is known as the patron saint of police officers and soldiers. According to esoteric sources he dwells on the sun and is represented by the element of fire. In mystic traditions he is the acknowledged guardian of humanity and serves to clear interior space so that we can become more whole.

Call on Archangel Michael when you are in need of intense intervention, visualizing his flaming sword cutting you free of fears, doubts and ties that are binding and restrictive.

St. Brigid of Kildare One of three traditional saints of Ireland, St. Brigid was born to a pagan king and a Christian mother. Legends about St. Brigid abound, but one favorite tells of a young Brigid transmuting water into beer as an act of hospitality for visiting friars. Traditionally, she is also known for a mystic fire that burned in her convent for centuries from an unknown source. Named for a Celtic goddess, yet following a Christian path, Brigid is truly an alchemical figure. For those who bring Brigid into their lives she brings the archetypal energy of holding the tension of the opposites – the gift of true wisdom.
