This past weekend I sat with friends to support the prayer of a new healing space on family land. We practiced the old ways and tuned in to hear the heartbeat of life, to ask the questions of the heart. We took time to listen but also to reflect on the remarkable abundance of the past year.
My teacher Sarah Maclean Bicknell | Grandmother Sarah offered one of her deepest and most potent teachings, the four directions, last fall and it touched my core. Everything I learn with Sarah makes life make sense again, at a time on earth when so often sense slips through the cracks.
One piece I am left with as we prepare to move into the second turning is how to walk towards the new year with an open palm, grace moving through, having released what we are finished carrying back to life.
I feel incomplete and unresolved with many of last year’s events. But each time I come into circle with ones I love, I can put a little more down.
What if every single thing that happened during this last year was a blessing? What if you got it all right?
What are you still carrying that it is time to give back to life? What still needs more time?
Dream question: Show me how to receive the blessings from this last year.
Write it down on a slip of paper under your pillow tonight. Open your heart. Let it come.
You can sign up for the second turning with Sarah Maclean Bicknell | Grandmother Sarah starting 10/24! Not needed to have done the first.
