FOR THE CHILD
When we’re young we run
and play “let’s pretend” to be
anything and everything – just for fun.
Our imagination is the key.
As we grow up we are told
by others who are very serious
That reality is time and space and gold;
that games and visions are delirious.
Life goes on and we agree
what other people think is best:
to play our part in reality
just like them and all the rest.
Every game has a start,
a middle and conclusion.
When the time comes to depart
just make a new illusion!
You are Spirit ! Life Eternal !
You’ll make a future and new friends !
Through your dreams you are immortal;
like children playing “let’s pretend”.
FOR THE MOTHER
Jewel within the Lotus
Phallus and the Womb,
United we are both of us
The Source of Life Anew.
We are really No-Things
Beings joined with Form:
Animating Matter
The Cause of all that grows.
All creation springs from Love,
Heaven joins the Earth:
We are Souls united with the Flesh,
Death is joined with Life.
I am like Air.
You are like Fire.
A hearth is made in Our embrace.
Our loins the fuel, our kiss the spark,
We fan the Flame with Our desire.
Rising smoke from each caress,
Our Love the heat, Our Joy reflects
That through Our Seed, Our Souls are met:
through Our Own Cause we are Effect.
One reaches,
One withdraws.
Positive flows to negative,
In and out and ebb and flow
Are rhythms of the Universe.
One is born
One grows old
Life and Death are a single thread –
Binding Souls within the flesh!
FOR THE IMMORTAL WOMAN
Woman, Thou Art Beauty!
born beyond being…
rare and simple purity
fragile power — timeless immortality.
Complex simplicity, perfectly sublime:
undying yet reborn.
Serenity in action, uncompromised by time:
wrinkled though unworn.
No dance can sway Thee
No psalm can say Thee
No sight can see Thee
No sense can be Thee
You Are that You Are
as ever You will be.
Thou Art Beauty,
Woman.

The following are a sample of some of the actual questions asked, and the replies given by the “Oracle of Pan” on the internet. Each person asking a question of “The Oracle of Pan” was asked to offer a gift to honor the spirit of Pan by planting a tree.
Oracle: (a definition)
An oracle is a person or agency considered to be a source of wise counsel or prophetic opinion; an infallible authority, usually spiritual in nature. It may also be a revealed prediction or precognition of the future, from deities, that is spoken through another object (e.g.: runemal) or life-form (e.g.: augury and auspice). In the ancient world many sites gained a reputation for the dispensing of oracular wisdom: they too became known as “oracles”, and the oracular utterances, called khrēsmoi in Greek, were often referred to under the same name — a name derived from the Latin verb ōrāre, to speak.
THE ORACLE OF PAN Questions & Replies:
I have been having disturbing dreams about my future. What does this mean? Should I be worried that something bad will happen to me?
The Oracle Reply:
Pondering dreams of the night,
from a source so mysterious,
may cause alarm or even fright,
and make you feel delirious.
Heed them not, they’re not important.
Dreams by day, while you’re awake,
are under your command and portent.
The story of your life is yours to make.

Question:
My boyfriend wants to get married, but he doesn’t have a job and I work to support both of us. He doesn’t have any ambition to do anything since he got out of the Army. He just hangs out with his buddies and drinks beer and plays video games most of the time. I’m not sure he’ll ever change. I love him, but I’m not sure that getting married is the best thing to do.
The Oracle Reply:
You alone can cause your fate.
You have the power to create.
Take care of people who
Are willing to take care of you.
