Words From The Fire
Allowing for a slow return.
Sometimes, a retreat into silence is needed to find your voice again.
A retreat into prayer, contemplation, observation, stillness.
These are some of the pillars I am beginning to step into. Learning that sometimes silence is the medicine, that stillness is the action, that contemplation is the compass.
With all my might, I want to be actively sharing here, but I am learning to respect and not feel guilty for the ebbs and flows of creativity that course through me. To honor this call into silence so the new voice can emerge when it is time.
Recently, though, as I prayed for my words to begin returning, as I surrendered to them, perhaps not returning for some time, words burst through, and I don’t feel they belong to me, and so I share them here.
These words are an answer to a prayer, questions posed by the sacred Fire. Counsel for the Soul.
Notes From The Fire
What happens if you accept yourself in the silence?
What happens if you accept yourself in the stillness?
If you were to stop believing something is terribly wrong with you because your well of inspiration is currently in a drought? And instead acknowledge that just like the Earth, you have winters too.
What would happen if you chose to have patience and trust that the nature of your spirit will know when it’s time to come back up from the watery depths it’s currently swimming in?
How can you expect to truly enjoy and appreciate your light if you do not know how to find stillness when the shadow emerges?
Perhaps no longer resisting the darkness and accepting it for what it is now, a cocoon of transformation, will allow you to pass through with more ease.
You are giving birth to yourself. This is what birth to self feels like, and cannot be bypassed..
Maybe you yourself have been the dam, and all you have to do is fully surrender and break open in order to let Spirit’s waters wash over you, cleanse you, and transform you.
You don’t recognize yourself.
You don’t know who you are anymore.
What a miracle. What a blessing. You are changing.
You are in the liminal.
You are in the in-between.
What a great privilege to be so close to the Great Mystery, your point of conception.
Doubt and fear will only serve to cloud your vision.
Trust, faith, surrender, patience, and an open and curious heart will be your allies to carry you through.
What was won’t work anymore.
Looking back to see how you did it before will not show you the way this time.
This is a voyage for you to discover the inner resources you were too blind to see before.
Only a new and unfamiliar way of being will pave the way forward.
Only a new way of seeing will reveal the vision that seeks to burst through.
Turn to silence. Turn to stillness.
Observe. Learn to wait.
Slowly, slowly, Spirit will reveal the way.
