✨Story & Soul✨
I deeply love to journey within the realms of Myth. Especially those that have existed and traveled through many ages, carried on the tongues of ancestors, woven into the very fabric of our consciousness.
To return them feels important - for the medicine they gift through sharing, cocreating, and reweaving them back into our circles is to carry the flame forward, especially those we thought forever lost.
To journey with Myth is to touch another world, land or place, to step into another realm,
picture it’s landscapes, it’s history, its lifeforce.
To happen upon a word, an essence, or idea that shifts something deep within.
Stories shared hold alchemical magic.
When we speak our stories we bring them to life
From the well of the deep into the physical.
Here they can speak into our bodies, our bone and blood memory.
To hear the heart of another through the words of their voice, written into being.
Their experience of life- of humanness - in all its faces - wild,beauty, grief, depth, painful,ineffable,ecstasy.
I remember these places within my own heart.
I meet them in my body as I behold the story.
Meeting parts of myself in and along the journey.
The pleasure of allowing the imaginal to come alive and be embraced, enjoyed, welcomed as a part of my rich complexity.
To sit with grief that comes with love and loss, to touch that which can only be felt.
To live through adventure alongside the forms held within- the trials and tests, the initiations, the gateways and axis.
To feel, to be touched, moved and shivered
by the archetypal journey.
As too familiar experiences life has gifted me within the chapters of my own story.
The transitions from one form to the next- the call of change, dissolving, the breaking apart & open, the integration and rebirth.
Story is a special kind of medicine.
One who offers an invitation,a gateway, into the mystery.
Myths activate when spoken aloud.
When words and images meet and weave within us
In divine alchemy with ourselves and the essence of the heartbeat of what is.. a weaving of worlds.
Both are alive within the union of story and soul.
