Saturday two weeks ago I began to dance. I returned to dance.
As I danced this morning I could not quite believe the journey I have traveled
in what is really less than a blink of an eye
This morning I danced a sacred dance.
I danced with the sunrise
The still full moon setting behind us – the sun and I 🙂
As I danced I realized somewhere deep inside
That this dance is a giving permission
An active giving permission for my God Self, for my Sacred Soul
To express,
To let that part of me be in charge
Each day in the dance I step aside – even if just for a moment
And surrender to my Sacred Self
This morning I realized that I am giving permission
For her to lead in more than just the dance
To lead in Life as Dance, in the Dance of Life
And there I thought I was just having fun!
A friend of mine did a psychic reading for me this week
In it she says:
“There is no doubt that the next step for you is ……
a far bigger and bolder step forward and that is
into the recognition of you as God.”
Blasphemy some might cry.
Pure beauty, I say.
And the reading ends thus:
“But of course the sooner you are living from that place (All of us),
the sooner your worlds will hold the kind of beauty and grace
that you sometimes dare to imagine they can.”
And my heart fills with joy and tears and longing and gratitude, because I have a choice to live from that place now. From my God Spark. And to live from there exclusively. To listen to and for and from what feels Deeply Good, and to trust this it is in fact also good for the world, and for my loved ones. Perhaps for a three year old this would be dangerous advice. But for where I am on my journey this is how I might really allow grace and beauty to manifest through me – not for their sake – but as a natural process of living from a place of following what I deeply feel and desire.
It is a little scary. To trust myself. To trust my lived experience and Feeling of what to do – and to follow only that which Feels Deeply Good. Which Feels Deeply Good.
Each day, each morning or evening in the dance I am learning even more fully, with all of my body, and all of my spirit, and sometimes parts of my mind ;-), to feel myself, to trust myself, to treasure myself, to listen to myself, to follow myself.
And this morning it turned in a subtle but important way and became an active Giving Permission to live from that place.
Trust yourself, because the Bottomnest piece of you is Divine.
Many of us have been speaking of the Rising Feminine
As I reflect on my dance and the movements inside me
This blessed and beautiful spring morning
With the birds chanting, the slight breeze, the moon set, the sun arisen
I realize that this capacity to navigate by Deep Feeling
Is in fact a deeply feminine quality
For too long we have been told
Emotions are bad
Not objective
And here I am learning to listen to and once again give permission to
My deep subjective feeling of goodness
Not random emotions so much as the deeper undercurrent
That can be felt when genuinely attended to
The Feminine is rising
Do you feel it too?
In your bones? In your heart? In your soul?
It is in all of us
Man or woman
Rising
May we all Dance in Beauty. May we all Dance in Peace. May we all Dance as One
