There’s something happening here.

Not new. A current that tried to come through once before and didn’t fully land.

You can hear it in the old songs if you listen to them as a kind of premonition

People catching something real as it’s breaking through. A way of seeing that makes our old lives harder to keep.

Not asking to be followed. Not asking to be believed. Just asking to be lived.

And the question isn’t which side are you on.

It’s are you willing to see clearly even when it costs you the version of yourself that felt safe.

Even if the weather doesn’t show it yet, spring is arriving, and our Spring Equinox Gatherings begin this weekend.

Our Equinox & Solstice Gatherings hold two intentions: to mark the seasonal turning together and to direct our care and resources toward a local organization serving our wider community.

This spring, our Equinox Gatherings will support Voces de la Frontera, an organization working to protect and advance the rights of immigrant workers and families here in Wisconsin.

This Saturday, Megan Grace and Meghan Behn are leading yoga practices at 3pm at our Madison and Fitchburg locations. Next Saturday Keith Borden is leading Surya Namaskar at 3pm at our Fitchburg location and then on Sunday we'll gather around the table for Sunday Supper.

Participation in these gatherings is by donation, and every dollar given will go directly to Voces and their work.

In a world where reality is breaking this piece is about what doesn’t break. Human decency. Community. And the quiet, radical choice to keep showing up for one another.

PRECIPICE

I don’t have answers, just my body bracing against a tide of cruelty that refuses to go back underground.

And what I want to say out loud is that if you feel bewildered, heavy, sick with the cruelty of this moment, you’re not alone.
Maybe the ache in our collective chest is a bell, ringing out the truth about the edge we’ve reached.

This is not just a political crisis or a cultural one. This is a soul crisis…the kind that reveals whether we are willing to become something truer or collapse into something crueler.

I’ve lived through collapse before. Not like this, but enough to know the shape. The peeling away, the disorientation, the bargaining, the sharp grief of realizing what cannot be restored because it was never whole to begin with.

As much as I want to bottle the harm, the vileness, the indecency, and shelve it out of reach, I know better. It’s woven into our systems. Etched into our habits. Carried in the stories we keep telling.

So the only true way through is to turn toward it and feel the heat.

This is the practice now…to face what we made, to name what must be transformed, to admit that we have all had a hand in shaping this, and that all of us together have a part to play in changing it.

If you’re still standing at a distance denying, avoiding, or allying with the strongman because fear tells you it’s safer, I understand. Fear is loud. But this force isn’t true strength. It’s pain, dressed in the costume of power. A bully with a microphone. And it’s not just coming for “them.” It’s coming for all of us. So I’ll keep naming it, not because I have the whole truth, but because I carry a piece of it, and because my humanity is bound up in yours.

We don’t get to look away. We get to look each other in the eye and decide…Will we let this fire forge us, or consume us?

There’s a kind of hope you should never let go of. The kind that keeps people showing up for one another when things get hard.

But there’s another kind of hope that looks spiritual and sounds responsible, while quietly keeping you suspended above your own life. Waiting for the future to redeem the present.

That’s the hope the root fire comes for.

Megan Grace wrote about it in Part Two of her Becoming a Sovereign Self series.

What if becoming wise isn’t about gaining anything...but about losing everything that was never truly you?
