🍂Harvesting Pride & Gathering in Sanctuary
We’ve just come through such an intense eclipse portal — and I want to pause to say: congratulations. We made it through! These thresholds aren’t easy, and every step taken is part of the alchemy required to deepen into greater coherence. The momentary turbulence is not random, but a surfacing and a clearing of patterns for purification, for the sake of bringing forth deeper gold, which is our essence and our birthright, a lucid kind of peace that comes not from complacency but from the ground of being awake within life. Thank you to those who joined our Fall Harvest Ritual last week. What we created together was so nourishing. As we turn deeper into autumn, I invite you to picture your own basket of harvest — filled with the fruits of this year’s growth. Before rushing ahead, let yourself feel some healthy pride in how far you’ve come over the course of recent months. For many of us, especially as empaths and sensitives, that pride can be hard to claim… but it is sacred fuel for the months ahead. I’ve pulled a short clip from the ritual where I share about the roots of trauma — how it’s really a separation from our nature codes, and why healing requires meeting a pattern with a greater pattern. You can watch that video below. And, as part of the Village, you can watch the entire recording of our ritual time while we are here on SKOOL (for a limited time, as I'll be transferring the free community onto Facebook soon). The paid membership will remain here on this platform, but it's turning out not to be the best place to offer public events (to learn more about this, watch the Q & A recording from last Thursday). And for those of you in Bend, I’ll be facilitating a free Somatic Soul Retrieval Sanctuary meditation journey on Sunday morning, October 12 at 8:30 AM at Hanai Center in the Earth Room. This session is part of the new Bend to Balance Health Expo — a full weekend of offerings focused on mental health and wellbeing, for only $8 entry. Hosted by Soundshala, Hanai, and UUFCO.
