Brown

BROWN

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer this blessing of the color BROWN:

Does a bear shit in the woods?  Well I sure hope so! A brown bear drops its brown poop at the base of a brown tree.  This fertilizes the tree, so it can grow big and strong and sprout leaves and fruits, which the brown bear eats, which is then digested into… poop!  And the cycle continues. Brown is the basis for the cycle of life!

Bears and trees, the most natural signs of strength we know!  Though brown is also the color of deserts, dry brush, and ashes… it is the basis of life.  It is the start and end. It is the cycle. Hidden within the stoic brown trunk of a forest tree springs moisture and life!  Without the strength of a tree’s roots, there would be no leaves, no flowers, no other colors in the world! And so we honor the color Brown for providing us with life, with nourishment, with beauty.

Black

BLACK

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer this blessing of the color BLACK:

In the shadows, in the darkness, lurking behind in mystery.  Black represents all things spooky, and odd, and scary.  

Black is the color of darkness, of everything combined together yet nothing visible.  Black represents the end, the final destination, death.  

Every day we are alive is a blessing, but only because we know we will not live forever.  Life is precious because it can disappear into the darkness at any moment.  

Through the AIDS crisis in the 80’s… through Don’t Ask Don’t Tell in the 90’s… through the tragic death of Matthew Shepard in the early 2000’s… the queer community has a long history of death and darkness.  

We fight every day for our right to exist and feel safe from the darkness that others try to force upon us.  We fight for our very survival.

But in the darkest of times, we remind ourselves that as a community, we survived the AIDS crisis; We overcame Don’t Ask Don’t Tell; We rallied our strength after Matthew Shepard.  

And in the face of continued oppression, we stand together in the fight to preserve marriage equality; We stand together in opposition of the Transgender Military ban; We stand together to fight for the right to use the bathroom in public.  

Because we are strong, our community is strong, and we will not be kept down!

White

WHITE

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer this blessing of the color WHITE:

White
A blank, clean slate
Start over fresh 

It can be great

A lack of color

Yet the total sum

An empty vessel

Yet the basis of all

White face reflection

White veil starting new

A great brightness

Shines upon us all

White
A blank, clean slate
Start over fresh 

It can be great

Pink

PINK

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer the following blessing of the color PINK:

We’re goofy
We’re silly

We blow bubbles in our gum!

We’re bright
We’re fun
We’re just so full of JOY!

Rejoice in pink, for pink is the color of fun, party, silliness, and joy!

Rejoice in pink, for pink pussy hats are a symbol of the resistance!

Rejoice in pink, for we’re all pink on the inside!

Through our rose colored glasses, we can see the best of the world around us.

We can see a world of freedom, of welcoming, of love!

We will never be anything but loud.  We will continue our pussy riot until our voices are heard!


Hit the town

Fool around

Let’s go party!

Purple

PURPLE

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer this blessing of the color PURPLE:

Purple is a rich and vibrant color, with deep layers hidden within its folds.  It is the color of royalty, because it embodies depth and power.

Purple represents the bisexual and genderqueer concept of “both”.  Lighter shades of purple represent androgyny. These all represent the merging of blue and pink.  It is not surprising that purple is used in so many flags within our queer community, for it reminds us that we can all mix together and be beautiful!

Purple represents Spirit!  The spirit of the queer community runs through us all.  It lifts us up in times of struggle, and it cheers us on through celebrations.  There is a richness to purple, a depth, a power. The same can be said of our community!  We are diverse! We are the combination of so many different things! We are a beautiful tapestry of all the many who have found a home with us!

We honor the depth and richness of our community when we think of purple.

Blue

BLUE

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer the following blessing of BLUE:

Blue is the color of emptiness, of blood being ready for oxygenation.
Blue is the color of calmness, of relaxation after a long day.
Blue is the color of coldness, of winter ice covering a pond.
Blue is the color of maleness, of masculinity.


Blue is the color of serenity, of the ocean on a calm afternoon.

Blue is the color of a reset, of the sky on a bright beautiful day.


Blue is the chance for a new start.

GREEN

GREEN

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer this blessing of the color Green:

Psychedelic herb!
As if from another world,
Lime green brings us joy!
Brand new life, start fresh!
Go!  Says nature in the spring.
With shades of Kelly.
Though light green is pale
It represents the spectrum
Of beautiful hues
The earth is rich and full of life!
Nature surrounds us in its gentle embrace.
The fresh blooms on every tree,
Every plant brings smiles to our faces 
As they bring their joy into our lives.

YELLOW

YELLOW

​As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's Novice Project, we offer this blessing for the color Yellow:

Who's that sun shining in the sky?
It's me!  It's me!
I said who's that sun shining in the sky?
It's me!  It's me!
Uh huh!  Uh huh!  Uh huh!  Uh huh!  Uh huh!

Y-E-L-L-O-W !
Yellow Yellow Yellow!
Yellow pee,
Yellow sun,
Yellow is just all the fun!
Y-E-L-L-O-W !
Yellow Yellow Yellow!

We are crisp!  We are fresh!  We put urine to the test.
Does it run clear?  Brightly colored?  Will it flush with all the rest?
Full of life!  Harmony!  Throw some citrus in as well.
We shine brightness on the world, lots of glitter you can tell.

Warm as day!  We are gay!  In the best possible way!
Our neutrality of gender can’t compare!
And so we celebrate this color
Like there is no other
Yellow - is the color of happiness!

ORANGE

ORANGE

As part of Novice Sister Gwenn N Dowtte's novice project, we offer this blessing of the color ORANGE:

There are days that we struggle. 
There are times that we weep.

There are difficult roads that we must walk.

We are living in a confusing time, a time of division and separation.  Communities pitted against each other, families fighting over their own differences.  There is a shadow over our world right now that we are feeling deeply, and it hurts our souls.

Only in the darkness can we see the stars.

Only in times of struggle do we find our strength.

Only in our hardest days do we discover our path forward.
​

So we honor the color orange.  We are reminded of the healing power of vitamin C in a ripe, sweet, delicious, juicy orange.  It is a color of healing. Of strength.

The monarch butterfly spends its whole life building to a transformation into a beautiful orange being, spreading its beauty around the world!
So we look to the future, and send love out into the world; so we can heal the pain and bring ourselves and our communities together.
