Most mornings, I get up at 5, before the house begins to stir. I treasure those few minutes in the liminal space between wake and sleep, where my dreams and the clearer messages from my deep unconscious are still accessible. I quietly make my way up to my office, a space that has taken on a rich, almost womb-like feeling. It’s a place that feels like a portal into a comforting state. Despite having a house with many rooms, it’s this one that makes people stop and say, “Wow, this feels different.” I always smile because I think they’re sensing me and the work I do here. My work a series of gentle nudges to the ego, allowing me to see into my clients’ deeper places, letting the self beneath the wounds begin to shift so that they can reveal their true heart, passions and desires.
In these early mornings, I sit and talk with my dreams. No energy is wasted in our perfect system; the energy and images of my dreams help me work through my own discomforts and pains, those areas where I don’t yet feel whole.
I love my animal spirit cards. Did you know it can take months, sometimes a year, to make friends with a deck of cards like these? They need to trust you, and you them, and then you can discover a secret language spoken between you, the cards, and the deep unconscious—not just mine, but the unconscious realm itself.
These are my cherished mornings when I spend this time. Then I come down to all the daily tasks: making breakfast, gently waking my child, knowing he is in the same magical place I just left and hoping my gentle touch can help him linger there a bit longer.
