I’ve been away on a journey… It was an inner journey that required me to keep my thoughts, words, and actions close while my attention and intention sought emotional, spiritual, and physical health.
I resurfaced with a wealth of energy and a compulsion to share all I have synthesized while away on what seemed like initiatory time.
The most fragile and tender parts of who I used to be have expanded, joined forces, and amalgamated into the foundation of who I am now.
Different but the same.
Slower. More open. Fortified. Ready.
I am still equipped with the courage it takes to hold and balance the complexity of paradox, knowing and honoring that more than one thing can be true.
Opposing things can exist, and they do.
And yet… I am more rooted in the conviction of what is for me.
I am still willing and able to hear and receive what is… Through a plethora of lenses.
And yet… I am joyful to be in any given moment, anchored into what is real and what is true, separate from even my thoughts, feelings, and emotions.
Freedom.
I was initiated into newfound freedom.
Freedom found in presence.
Days are inching closer to my Solar return and there is so much I want to share as a gift to the collective, taken right out of the pages written in the journey of this past year.
And I will.
Allow me to start by asking…
What is the thing you’ve been putting off that continues to pull at threads of your consciousness, perhaps now demanding that you start that journey?
What have you been avoiding, pushing aside, making excuses against, or not taking responsibility for?
What is the thing that continues to show up throughout pages and chapters of your life as patterns of circumstance?
What would you say if I told you they could be patterns of protection and they won’t stop until you do?… Until you stop and take the initiatory time needed for you to come out on the other side of what these patterns have been protecting you from?
Believe me, it’s true.
I’ll come back to talk about it again and again.
I hope you do, too.
BIG love and blessings,
Mary
