Hymns to the Night
Novalis (1772 – 1801) was a poet, mystic, and philosopher. He was influenced by German Idealism, especially the philosopher Johann Gottlieb Fichte, and became one of the great poets of German Romanticism.
He developed the spiritual symbol of the Blue Flower, an integral part of his ‘religion of love.’ Appearing for the first time in his unfinished novel, Henry von Ofterdingen, the Blue Flower represents man’s longing for heaven.
His first major work, Hymns to the Night, was written upon the death of his beloved fiancee Sophie, who died of tuberculosis when she was fifteen years old.
HYMNS TO THE NIGHT (translated by George MacDonald)
I.
Before all the wondrous shows of the widespread space around him, what living, sentient thing loves not the all-joyous light, with its colors, its rays and undulations, its gentle omnipresence in the form of the wakening Day? The giant-world of the unresting constellations inhales it as the innermost soul of life, and floats dancing in its azure flood; the sparkling, ever-tranquil stone, the thoughtful, imbibing plant, and the wild, burning multiform beast inhales it; but more than all, the lordly stranger with the sense-filled eyes, the swaying walk, and the sweetly closed, melodious lips. Like a king over earthly nature, it rouses every force to countless transformations, binds and unbinds innumerable alliances, hangs its heavenly form around every earthly substance. Its presence alone reveals the marvelous splendor of the kingdoms of the world.
Aside I turn to the holy, unspeakable, mysterious Night. Afar lies the world, sunk in a deep grave; waste and lonely is its place. In the chords of the bosom blows a deep sadness. I am ready to sink away in drops of dew, and mingle with the ashes.-- The distances of memory, the wishes of youth, the dreams of childhood, the brief joys and vain hopes of a whole long life, arise in gray garments, like an evening vapor after the sunset. In other regions the light has pitched its joyous tents. What if it should never return to its children, who wait for it with the faith of innocence?
What springs up all at once so sweetly boding in my heart, and stills the soft air of sadness? Dost thou also take a pleasure in us, dark Night? What holdest thou under thy mantle, that with hidden power affects my soul? Precious balm drips from thy hand out of its bundle of poppies. Thou upliftest the heavy-laden wings of the soul. Darkly and inexpressibly are we moved: joy-startled, I see a grave face that, tender and worshipful, inclines toward me, and, amid manifold entangled locks, reveals the youthful loveliness of the Mother. How poor and childish a thing seems to me now the Light! how joyous and welcome the departure of the day!-- Didst thou not only therefore, because the Night turns away from thee thy servants, you now strew in the gulfs of space those flashing globes, to proclaim, in seasons of thy absence, thy omnipotence, and thy return?
More heaven.

In Jude 17-23 Jude shifts from piling up examples of false teachers from the Old Testament to a series of practical exhortations that flow from apostolic instruction. He preserves for us what may well have been part of the apostolic catechism for the first generation of Christ-followers. In these instructions Jude exhorts the believer to deal with 3 different groups of people: scoffers who are "devoid of the Spirit", believers who have come under the influence of scoffers and believers who are so entrenched in false teaching that they need rescue and pose some real spiritual risk for the rescuer. In all of this Jude emphasizes Jesus' call to rescue straying sheep, leaving the 99 safely behind and pursuing the 1.

2. Philosophical Statement Research as a Contribution to Art Therapy If we are to continue in our commitment as a service profession to improving the quality of life for individuals and society at large, it makes sense that we do not attempt merely to duplicate what is widely available through other disciplines, but instead focus on we have to contribute to our speciality. Catherine Moon, 1998:23
3. Objective: To experiment with and demonstrate a theoretical and practical approach to a narrative art therapeutic intervention with application to therapy for women following a broken marriage.
4. In the Beginning : Finding a guiding image Creativity is not a solitary movement. That is its power. Whatever is touched by it , whoever sees it, senses it, knows it, is fed. That is why beholding someone else’s word, image, idea, fills us up , inspires us to our own creative work. Estes, Women Who Run With The Wolves . P 298

7. Care of the Soul requires a different sort of language from that of therapy and academic psychology. Like alchemy it is an art and therefore can only be expressed in poetic images, mythology, the fine arts, which provide priceless imagery by which the soul’s mysteries are simultaneously revealed and contained. Moore . Care of the Soul
8. The Tear Garden: A Personal Narrative An exhibition of a series of images based on the Mater Delorosa, Mother of Seven Sorrows Arts therapy offers an opportunity to work in a serial form or steps, but also the creation of images which can be revisited or changed. It also offers the opportunity to look behind those images. Roose- Evans
9. I: Betrayal in the Garden: Easter 2002 He said that love fled suddenly in the golden glory of an Autumn day in Queenstown For no reason. But in truth his heart moved for another waiting in the wings of all our lives. Bare footed she called across hills, and valley of deepening shadow Columbine, Columbine Breath sweet with slumberous Lilac wine Smokey too with promise of the spirit of Dionysus and all his pomps and promises Goblets of dream. Different and silver paths suddenly laid bare Shocks of ice ruled my hair As the swift sword, hidden in wing hit home. Soul of tears revealed her countless petals Lotus Flower Raining Glassy tears In the garden
10. The First Sorrow: The Garden of Betrayal A sword shall pierce through thy own soul Simeon’s prediction
11. II: Flight from the Garden July2002 Early morning he fled with stealth. And left a note tinged with a hint of regret Footprints marked the crystal pathway The beginning of the end And the beginning Of the long valley of tears The child bride now face-lined with many sorrows And grandmother for the first time Gowned in white And wearing the lace cap on her head which once held a veil Protection from prying eyes torn asunder As the memory of the promise once made and about to be broken is framed in silver. But spirits now summoned gather As the shadow man Once Romeo and bridegroom flees Without turning once Not seeing the blue tree laid bare in the winter garden Where she once decked all their joys and sorrows Like brightly coloured baubles And where sunflower girls thrived in dappled light Her soul cries as the second sword plunges deep Stretching the golden band
12. The Second Sorrow: Abandonment in the Winter Garden On the coldest morning , in secret , in the very dead of winter, leaving only a note and footsteps in the frosty garden the grey man fled.
13. III: Separation War raged in the garden and the angels in the sky above screamed like skybirds as the whole world opened into chasm when he came with the proposal that would shatter all illusion. Stones rained down on the helmet holding fast From the catapult concealed behind his back Words spoken by others Sweet as honey wine dripped behind the secret smile But she could see the card And could read it Hidden up his sleeve Which slipped in one small movement And she became lupine thing And armed with new bible her army behind and around her She sent arrows laced with power too and held to half the roots as they snapped and when trees fell Her soul torn unsunder and fluttering, set free on hostile winds The black cat prowled The third sword cut and his heart took wings....
14. The Third Sorrow: Separation, War in the garden The centre torn apart

16. The Fourth Sorrow: Defeat in the Tear Garden “And who can say why your heart cries, When your love dies? Only time...” – Enya: Only Time .
17. V: The Serpent in the Garden Over those mountains he flew like an albatross home to Dunedin And with great haste with the message And with fury he knocked at the gate papers in hand which would dissolve everything and explain nothing. And she turned him away too bare and not yet prepared to assume the garments of divorce which the fates already had sewn which she would wear in shame and forever. With no defence he took her by stealth and stabbed her in the dark pathway in the darkened garden And sent his envoy the serpent to stand in waiting With a great threat hanging over her and to dog her every step until she would submit and mark the dotted line with her treasured name that would end in a death of a marriage She fell into strong arms and then was wrapped in care and communion with loving spirits There were no screams left to inflame or give delight when she asked him into her own new garden And signed to the sound of a soft and strange lament, from a heavenly choir And he sighed and mumbled words sprinkled with shame but no regret And stabbed the sharp sword in her side, Once again
19. VI: Leaving the Garden I look down on the garden of my childhood, my womanhood and motherhood In the pink and early light of a February morning, as we leave Dunedin without fanfare. I am navigator l In search for new shores and new things to care about The vigilant soul and adventurer by my side We slip as ships in the dark from moorings now not solid. On ward a long, long journey North Dunedin is grey and blue and soft She sees old homes and stone buildings and rolling hills,the brooding harbour the beach of childhood, The graves holding bones of most dearly loved left behind, left unattended The cityscape draped in mist Are now memories captured in images in a painting Angels carry stories on the wind of a person now gone and spirits flutter as white butterflies in old gardens where the tear flower still grows And while my soul now sings from time to time as tender tendrils from the buried sorrow grow toward light my heart cries and holds six burdens.
