walking in beauty: a full moon reflection on gratitude, nature, and the beauty way

Happy (un-snowy) full moon blessings sweet souls✨🌞✨I was just thinking of the Navajo prayer reflecting ‘Beauty Way’, a concept where you live life looking thru the lens of gratitude, well-being, compassion and appreciation for all that we are blessed with…within ourselves, within our communities, the world, with nature, and even in uncertainty, grief, or hardship. I believe there are different variations of this blessing, but thought I’d share:

“In beauty may I walk.

All day long may I walk.

Through the returning seasons may I walk.

On the trail marked with pollen may I walk.

With grasshoppers about my feet may I walk.

With dew about my feet may I walk.

With Beauty may I walk.

With Beauty before me may I walk.

With Beauty behind me may I walk.

With Beauty above me may I walk.

With Beauty beneath my feet may I walk.

With Beauty all around me may I walk.

In old age wandering on a trail of Beauty,

Living again may I walk.

All is completed in Beauty.

All is completed in Beauty.”
