As I hinted in last week’s newsletter, tomorrow I will enter into the darkness for three, most likely four days; darkness 24/7.
Embracing the Darkness
Why darkness? It is like going into the Cosmic Womb, emptiness, stillness, where everything dies, returns back to Source, and where everything is created.
Diving into the Deep End!
I have never done this, so I don’t know what will happen. However, I had a reading where the guidance was that I would be purifying, decomposing, laying down, dying, and decaying parts of myself. I will then become the chrysalis, curling up into a fetal, primordial space to then be reborn into a completely new skeletal structure and starry light body.
Well, that sounds like a tall order, but I’m game! My soul is beyond excited and was ready to do this immediately when the guidance came about three weeks ago. I had to tell her to hold her horses as I had some preparation to do!
By being in the darkness it will activate other senses, like smell, hearing, touch, and feeling. I will do a lot of BEING, the feminine energy. No music, no phone, no TV, no hiking, no To Do lists, no talking to others.
Yes meditation, yes baths, yes sleeping, yes stretching, yes drumming, yes soul songs, yes presence, yes stillness…
Having done four vision quests in Colombia, ranging from 4, 7, 9 and 13 nights on the mountain where I only had two layers of clothing, a blanket, hat, altar goodies, no shelter, no food or water until the 5th day, this feels like a five star experience, in that I have a bed, running water, shelter and food!
This will also prepare me and create spaciousness for the fertile seeds of love and higher consciousness coming in over the winter solstice and beyond.
To receive these energies, you have to create space for them. As I shared in last week’s newsletter, detox from technology, get out in nature, and/or consider joining us for the plant medicine retreat Dec. 6-7 so that you start purifying and preparing to be a recipient of these potent energies.
I will fill you all in on the juicy details of the darkness retreat in next week’s newsletter!
PS. I am sharing a soul song with you that will help with your purifying and prepping process. It’s short, just two minutes. Best to sit quietly, set your intentions. Then listen and notice what comes up or shifts. Enjoy it HERE!
