COVID 19 – Connection, Ceremony and resilience.
At the time of writing this we are emerging from the long lock-down with the global pandemic with some areas experiencing a resurgence of the virus and local lockdowns are occurring. We have not been able to go out on the land in community to light our ceremonial fires to celebrate the light. We have been in deep listening with the Earth and her worlds. Hearing from the Ancestors how to thrive. Transitioning out of lockdown let us deepen, listening to our soul.
Depending on your circumstances of home, shelter, food, work and health, your experience may be a fearful one. Speaking with many of you, I hear of old grief and traumas which are being triggered. There is not a ‘right way’ of going through this global initiation. We need to be both practical and poetic. We are going through a time of death and rebirth, a collective dark night of the soul. We must once again learn how to tend to the soul in all things in service of the Earth.
Take each day at a time. Reach out and get support for your physical, spiritual and mental health. Be kind to yourself, care for your loved ones, community and land. Simple sacred practices can support your immunity and promote wellbeing. Wearing a mask and staying 2 m apart is an act of love. Transfigure and Journey. Love will get us through this time of initiation.
Physical isolation does not mean sacred isolation. Keep your sacred practices simple at this time. Journey to your compassionate helping spirits, transfigure and transmute with gentleness. If you do not have a journey practice, go out into Nature and take some deep breaths, feel the beauty of the Earth. Breathe in. Breathe out. Build your resilience in a way that is appropriate to you. Stay grounded , centered, get practical and mystical. We can dream and manifest a new world of equality, freedom and justice for all.
