Here is the next pair of Calendar of the Soul verses for this week (#36) and its polar opposite (#17). Note how the verses have diverged from the lemniscate's crossing point at Michaelmas, (which is Verse #26 with Polar verse #27). We are moving towards Christmas (#38), which occurs right after the Winter Solstice and marks the bottom of the lemniscate. (St. John's Tide marks the top).

This week's verse (#36) has dates of: December 8 - 14

|
I may now lead the Cosmic Word
through the gateways of my senses
into the foundations of my soul.
It speaks:
"Let my cosmic majesty
fill the depths of your spirit
so that one day soon
you may discover
myself in you."
