This was not what I expected in the Fire horse year, especially not for me, being also born in the year of the horse. I was pulled in deep, an invitation to dive in. Some days were spent without much effort, giving myself permission to take space and to allow the process to unfold. Sometimes I met the day with so much resistance- in the depths of my feeling adding to it frustration and guilt in not being productive or enjoying the sunshine. The awareness of this rich classroom of life that presents itself when you ask to uplevel. Thankful (most days) for my faith and trust in a higher power, friends that kept checking on me and extending me so much love and energy, the teachers that pulled me deeper into spirituality. Somedays the joy overfills me as I am driving thru the sun in the changing fall leaves and crying. Others still crying, as I am riding the depths of despair of the internal shadows of the deeply hidden buried pieces of me that I wish not to look at. Both taking me to places spiritually beyond my imagination. I have learned so much and pushed my capacity in many ways. As I dance with the Romance of Life, I am here to share and invite you in, as we travel this journey of life. Not every post will be from the unedited whims of my soul... but some may and I hope they help you see something in you. This space will be intentional and rich with lessons, tools, and stories - hopefully from all of you as you remember the greatness within you! Welcome to the Sacred Shift!
