Who knows the power that Saturn has over us, or Venus? But it is a vital power, rippling exquisitely through us all the time.”
- #DHLawrence
"The cosmos is a vast living body, of which we are still parts. The sun is a great heart whose tremors run through our smallest veins. The moon is a great nerve center from which we quiver forever.

Softly, in the dusk, a woman is singing to me; Taking me back down the vista of years, till I see A child sitting under the piano, in the boom of the tingling strings And pressing the small, poised feet of a mother who smiles as she sings. In spite of myself, the insidious mastery of song Betrays me back, till the heart of me weeps to belong To the old Sunday evenings at home, with winter outside And hymns in the cosy parlour, the tinkling piano our guide. So now it is vain for the singer to burst into clamour With the great black piano appassionato. The glamour Of childish days is upon me, my manhood is cast Down in the flood of remembrance, I weep like a child for the past.

Piano by D. H. Lawrence
This spring as it comes bursts up in bonfires green, Wild puffing of emerald trees, and flame-filled bushes, Thorn-blossom lifting in wreaths of smoke between Where the wood fumes up and the watery, flickering rushes. I am amazed at this spring, this conflagration Of green fires lit on the soil of the earth, this blaze Of growing, and sparks that puff in wild gyration, Faces of people streaming across my gaze. And I, what fountain of fire am I among This leaping combustion of spring? My spirit is tossed About like a shadow buffeted in the throng Of flames, a shadow that's gone astray, and is lost.

The Enkindled Spring by D. H. Lawrence
“Do the rollers of the sea
roll down my thighs
and over the submerged islets of my knees
with power, sea-power
sea-power
to break against the ground
in the flat, recurrent breakers of my two feet?”
D H Lawrence (1929)

If @scottishrugby.bsky.social are to get the better of a "tails up" #Ireland in #Dublin on Saturday and secure the #6Nations, the #TripleCrown and #BraggingRights for the next year, I may just fall off this three-year wagon, and toast to old #DHLawrence....
*Three years this week. 🍻

“Beautiful, candid lovers,
Burnt out of our earthly covers,
We might have nestled like plovers
In the fields of eternity.”
D H Lawrence (1916)

Are you willing to be sponged out, erased, canceled, made nothing dipped in oblivion? If not, you will never really change.

#EricaJong said this about female orgasm:
"Until I was 21, I measured my orgasms against #LadyChatterley’s and wondered what was wrong with me. Did it ever occur to me that Lady Chatterley was a man? That she was really #DHLawrence."

Among the bookshops I'd like to visit again, Five Leaves in Nottingham. The associated publisher issues these books too, as I start moving towards a sustained read-through of #DHLawrence #UKbookshops #Nottingham
“Be still when you have nothing to say; when genuine passion moves you, say what you’ve got to say, and say it hot.” - #DHLawrence (died: 2 March 1930)
There are vast realms of consciousness still undreamed of -vast ranges of experience, like humming of unseen harps, we know nothing of, within us.

"One must learn to love, and go through a good deal of suffering to get to it, and the journey is always towards the other soul."

"We ought to dance with rapture that we should be alive & in the flesh & part of the living, incarnate cosmos. I am part of the sun as my eye is part of me. That I am part of the earth my feet know perfectly, and my blood is part of the sea. " ~ D.H. Lawrence

“There is a band of dull gold in the west, and say what you like
again and again some god of evening leans out of it
and shares being with me, silkily
all of twilight.”
D H Lawrence (1916)

And you choose that object to concentrate upon which will best focus your consciousness. Every real discovery made, every serious and significant decision ever reached, was reached and made by #divination. The soul stirs, and makes an act of pure attention, and that is a discovery."
- #DHLawrence
#DHLAWRENCE ON TRUE #DIVINATION
"If you live by the cosmos, you look in the cosmos for your clue. If you live by a personal god, you pray to him. If you are rational, you think things over. But it all amounts to the same thing in the end.
