Breaking through…

Tis been a long time coming, but I made it through.

There is clear pathway now to the building of a lodge, a black earth lodge… which needs some explaining… later.

When we stay with something, even when it’s hard, or feeling pointless, or not working yet, we don’t know why… sometimes, we get the break through we are waiting for, sometimes… the patience the persistence, prevails!

Tis a blessed feeling! When we can feel movement on something that counts for us, something that matters. I have held this image in my heart, in my body for quite some time now… of where this lodge can be held, how it can look. To have the path clear! WOW… tis a great feeling.

I hope that your world is also feeling the clearing of the path… as we descend into the next dark moon of our current cycle,  I hope that the pathway to your sister circle is clear and open to you… that you know them, have a safe space to meet, that everyone has made the time available, maybe even had an opportunity to have the menfolk and children have some communal space too! Breaking through all that is in our way for good, strong women’s circle… that is why I am here, doing what I am doing…

How’s the pathway to your circle feeling?

The Women are arriving…

There is a new feel to living in East Gippsland. I used to resign myself to only sharing in good deep community experiences when in Melbourne with my long term, and more recent, sisters that I have shared circle with so deeply. BUT, in the last week, three women have arrived, just on the edges of me, that I know I will be sharing circle with… prompting me to get on with the building of the Black Earth Lodge… for that feels like why they are on their way. That the sharing of the Black Earth Lodge may begin. Ahh, I hear you ask… but that will have to wait for another blog post.

Do you have that feeling with women in your world? That there is a deeper exchange that is possible if only you would make the space? Create the time available for the sinking in, being with in a more ritualistic, or just softer time. I have found often that there are people that show up in my world precisely for the purpose of being in deep circle space, that we don’t actually have much else in common, just that we both/all seek this realm, and together the access is stronger, the consistency of returning on a regular basis creates a stronger connection. Shared experience builds a more power-filled current. What are women capable of when we commune this deeply with the inner plains, together? Is it the compounding of intensity? In awe I have  studied the possibilities of why women would en-train their cycles… Why would we begin to bleed together when we live closely? Is it about the collective unconscious? That ocean of humanity that we are all connected to, no matter our language or socio-economic status.

Are the women arriving in your world? Is it time yet to begin circle?
