Thresholds mark our journeys, backwards and forwards, spiralling inwards and outwards, with ups and downs and often many ins and outs.
How we move through these threshold moments shapes us, it creates our charachter, its what strengthens our relationships, our bonds,our connections. Firstly, to our selves and then to every one and every living thing around us. . .
Our kin,our anam chairde, human friends, plants, trees, deer and birds, all part of this great Dreaming.
One of the main messages I have been reminded of this year, is the power that is held in how we carry ourselves through these immense moments on the Earth.
What carries us through these times?
Through the Rivers of Grief?
Through the immense unimmaginable hurt that so many are experiencing.
I keep coming Home to our values are what carries our charachter through the moments where we are truly, deeply challenged, when all that we imagined and maybe felt to be true falls away.
How are we rising to meet these tidal waves of these days?
What values are we tending within the very Earth of our beings that are unshakeable.
This feels for me to be the foundation of how we together will create the pillars of the ways we will rise in Sovereignty to meet that which is coming.
Walking forth with the values centred in the original principles and ways of being in reciprocity & guardianship with the Earth.
Values rooted in respect, reciprocity, responsibility, integrity, love, courage, honesty, humility, truth & right relationship.
Through these moments, we must be surrounded by those who will lovingly call us deeper into accountability to rise into the fullness of our role & responsibility within the village.
To tend the childrens fire, to prepare our Hearts & Hearths to be the elders for the Children coming through at this moment we must dig deep and remember to bring all of us to the table, knowing that we all carry a thread, a song, a message that is part of this great turning, this prophesised remembering.
