🌌 CONSTELLATION PROMPTS • WEEK FIVE
Your First Signal Prompt 5: Name the earliest trace of yourself that still lives in you Every cycle circles home. This week, return to the origin-point; the spark that existed before language, before ritual, before the world shaped a name around you. Some beginnings rise like heat. Some arrive as a color that followed you for years. Some settle in the body as a quiet force that shapes every choice you make long after childhood left the room. This is the week of retrieval. Here’s your map. ✳️ Orbitals Choose one or let several converge: - A sensation from early life that never drifted. - A gesture you repeated long before you understood it. - A memory that kept its grip through every season. - An instinct that called you forward again and again. - A color, soundless motion, or fleeting image that always felt like source. These are your origin-markers. 🌿 Sensory Anchor Close your eyes. Call forward the earliest version of yourself you can still sense. Let the memory rise through your body one layer at a time; heat gathering at a point, a tightening that knows its own story, a flicker that moves from stillness into shape. Whatever sensation arrives first becomes your signal. Describe that sensation as motion, texture, or direction. Begin writing from there. ☄️ Comet Path Write an origin piece. Trace the line from early self to present self as movement through time, as instinct turning into pattern, as memory growing its own structure. Let each line shift a little deeper than the last. Let the piece unfold the way growth unfolds; steady, layered, shaped by something older than intention. When the recognition settles, place your seal. ✴️ Seal of Enoughness My beginning still shapes the direction I rise toward. 🪞Sharing Your Constellation Your ritual completes its arc in three lights: Core Star → Comet Path → Seal of Enoughness. Tag it with #ConstellationsOfEnough for the Archivists tracing this final turning of the cycle. 🌠 Sky Report Feature

#ConstellationsOfEnough A sensation from early life that never drifted. Time slowing with pain, though truly that's not the real shame. I learnt to regret in adult days, the speed at which pleasure passes by. A gesture repeated long before I understood it. Head drop eyes tilt into despair. But it brings you closer to the sound of your breath. Breath is hope, As you release, you hope, at least for a return. Peter Pan hoped childhood would never end. I sit in memory in the park looking at a statue of Peter Pan, with my grandfather. It is my most precious picture, I was three, on my fourth birthday he left for his eternity Filters of memory always make a sunny day, when he taught me to watch flowers grow. I wasn't a lost boy, I didn't know shortly afterwards childhood would stop being fun. He taught me the beauty in a spark, tiniest thing, carries the weight of joy, furthest. The purple polluted sky of home.People often fail to see that until I point it out. Nuclear powered, the sky above on the bluest day has the tiniest background hint of purply grey. It hovers over crisp browned moorland heather. Details, minute marks of bliss or sadness. Not the bruise or the force, or speed or angle of a forced fall to the ground. It's the sparkle of the sun on the first or last tear. Never some immaculate violet display. Colours spin a young mind, but the tiny green weeds in the tiniest crack in a concrete floor. Away with the fairies, forever forever. Forever my mind was drawn into an imaginary land. What captured my focus more than the forbidding door? The blemishes in the paint on frame. The pile thinned by the passage of feet, visible in the glow creeping beneath. Details. I promise I tried not to look. But the texture of a flexible cane sounds different from leather. A wooden heel has a resonance of its own. Muted only by minute details of imagined vast distance. I paint in miniature, both with a pen and a brush. I do it in earnest, aware of every tick in a hush.

Music and majiuana, now that's therapy. I got it wrong I thought it was compulsory Helps maintain the rhythm of my mood. Depressing tunes, smoke does the rest. Middling, background songs inhaled calm Dance, laugh and giggle cannabis in the middle Serious notes, herbs ensure details are heard. But therapy? Both reflect honestly how I feel. Both help me unwind after an ordeal. Therapy, isn't that a different thing altogether? Do you get the munchies on a therapist couch? A bowl of edibles in the waiting room? With incidental music to help you connect. Marijuana does help connect! Supply and demand. We all need a therapist I've come to understand. But eyes don't flick to focus after partaking; More a pleasant droop, while heads sway. And tapping, rhythm declines with dosage. Talk, yes mostly shit, in-between the tracks. Now psiloscybin that speaks for itself. Micro dosing? Seriously, that's no fun. Majiuana, it's just my personal stereo tool. Easily utilised, even by some stoned fool. Therapy, dope suggestion. So, just let me… Stick a disc on, roll a reefer and reconsider. As Cheech says, troubles go up in smoke. Briefly, for a while, think about if I agree. That music and majiuana are therapy for me. I should just say, obviously I never inhaled.

Mick Collins. I hate bios. I'm a teacher. All I ever wanted to be. There is no greater privilege than to be trusted to teach a child. I also scribble
