Legion of Light

    Usually my titles pop out at me after I've finished writing a post, but today I'm starting a mini project under the title "Legion of Light" because there was even more grief to work through today in regards to the upcoming EMDR treatment. I keep worrying about how well, or not so well, I'll handle recovering the repressed memories especially since I already know a great deal about what happened... In fact, the list that my intuition has compiled has gotten so uncomfortably long that I am reluctant to believe the last portion of the list. And this list is just what my father did, not what he might have said to me during. So back to the Legion of Light... I want to write as much as possible over the next three days or so about what it is, about what it can do, about what their support would feel like etc.

    To start, I'm going to back-track a little and bring my brief poem from March 2nd here, albeit with some minor modifications.

To Reveal and Heal

I proclaim here and now

that the light that I am

and the light I call forth

shall be powerful enough

to simultaneously

reveal and heal

the events that took place.

I proclaim here and now

that the light that I am

and the light I call forth

shall be mighty enough

to effortlessly

reveal and heal

the past.

Hold Me Tight

I call forth the Legion of Light.
I call forth all heavenly beings, all angels.
I call forth Your power and grace.
I call forth Your love, Your peace.
May You hold me tight
and wrap me in a blanket of light.
May You hold me near
and whisper sweet assurances in my ear.

Remind me that I am loved.
Remind me that I am safe.
Remind me that Your love and light,
power and grace is mine to receive
if I but ask for and open to it.

Legion of Light,
please comfort me and my inner child
as we face our source of grief together.
Legion of Light,
please gently wrap
my broken heart and tired mind
in Your healing grace.
Legion of Light,
please hold me to Your heart
as I uncover the darkness of the past.
