up to the hill top
dance hands, canon digital rebel xt
My husband introduced me to this song tonight. He turned it up so I could hear the lyrics as we both created up in our loft. As I listened, I felt chills. Something deep within was tugging at my soul. I heard my tribe calling to come dance on the hill top. To surrender our fears, to gather in a circle and roar and dance. On this hill top, we fully embrace and celebrate the marvelous beings that we are.
While listening to this song, I could sense it, taste it...my skin felt cooled by the moon and my heart felt free and wild.
Soon sweet tribe...soon.

There are witches in the hills calling my name
saying come join us sister, come kiss the flame
Come dance in the moonbeams, ride the night wind
make love to the darkness and laugh at man's sins
I shiver with delight, I shiver with fear
my heart wants to go but my soul's filled with fear
So I turn to my lover and ask what do I do
do I answer their call or stay here with you
But under spell of deep sleep he moans and turns away
taking his protection and my desire to stay
So I rise to the hill tops, I ride the night winds
I make love to the darkness and laugh at man's sins

I have been listening to this song for years... and yes... soon... its a call that our deepest souls answer to every time the moon reaches her fullness and drips her nectar down into our wind swept hair... soon...
Elena, sweet Lunar Goddess...this just made me cry. Mmmm.
"drips her nectar..."
Yes.
You need a womens circle my friend.

Honey, this could not have come at a better time for you. ;-) I think that it reinforces so many things for you right now. C is an amazing best friend and partner. Reading it gave me goosebumps, I can only imagine what listening to it does.
Beautiful photo, as always.

Freedom.
Beautifully done.
WHEEEEE!!! First off... FABULOUS SONG!!! I love the Cowboy Junkies... soooo many memories connected to their music.
Secondly... please oh please may I join you on the hill top :) It has been FAR too many years since I have danced in the moonlight... *sigh* Wow, you have no idea what reading this has done to me. I am sitting here wondering just HOW did I make it along this far without the moonlight, and the drums, and the fire rushing through my veins.... I sooo miss my tribe.
Love you :)
