Sure enough, after my experience on the pilgrimage in France , one of the dear friends I made while I was there, recommend I read 's book "Take back the Magic"
Perdita's book affirmed so much about my own experience with the dead, with life. The day before my dad had died, he was supposed to have 6 more months. But I laid on the couch and through the somatic visual channel I saw and felt him standing at a doorway, it was windy. I was there with him. I told him "I'll hold the door for you dad."
Sure enough, I would be the only one to be with him as he died, I held the door for him.
Perdita's book also spoke to the same bottom-of-the ocean source energy, which of course just blew me away since just a month before I had seen that visual on the Isis throne.
This has changed the way I teach somatic trauma resolution for the female nervous system, how I mother, how I move through the world. My hope is that you will get curious too.
We are all, whether we know it or not, sitting on the laps of the dead—and they are ready to amaze us with their tricks and wonders. They will show us the numbers on the cards before we turn them over. They will find the unexpected coins behind our ears and place them in our hands. Most of all, they will remind us that everything that goes away always comes back. We can’t explain magic. We can’t replicate it. And here’s the part you most certainly didn’t like when you were alive: we can’t control it. But we can cultivate a relationship with it—and invite it into our lives. We can step into the dark and summon its wonders to us.
