ART: NANCY HOLT “SUN TUNNELS”
“Close your eyes and turn all the way around, slow-w-ly. Sense or feel the open door, the one that offers you ease, that welcomes you to a new homecoming.
“Walk up to this doorway, still with your eyes closed. Feel the grain of the threshold under your feet, the doorjamb beneath the palm of your hand. Feel the life pulsing on the other side, offering itself to you.
“When you’re ready, step through. Breathe this new air. Feel who you are, in this unknown, deeply familiar place. Feel how you stand, how your feet hold and are held by the ground here.
“Feel yourself welcomed, embraced, in all your beauty and timidity, your power and grace. Feel all this place holds for you and with you.
“Ask those questions that glow steadily in your heart.
“Here are the ones that arise to my lips in this liminal space.
“Why am I here?
“How do I truly love?
“What is yearning to be born?
“How do I serve now?
“How do I love my world now?
“Stay here for as long as you wish. When you feel complete, for now, ask this place for a talisman, a reminder that the door is open for you, that welcome and belonging await you there, as they do here.
“Turn around, and step back into the present moment, bringing the gifts of this place with you. Place your talisman on your altar, or in the altar of your heart. Kiss it, bless it, be blessed by it.
“Write a note, a promise to yourself, to your soul, to your world: This is what I will do to live where I’m being called, to live where I belong.
“Then, gather your allies and resources. Make a plan. Put it into motion. Begin today.”
From Hiro Boga’s new book To Be Soul, Do Soul: Adventures In Creative Consciousness

Yes. Thank you. I have been in a liminal place for several months and have known that I would soon be approaching an open door. I walked through it earlier this morning and THEN came here to find and read this. Yes. Thank you.

I’ve been feeling lost in a dark forest for sometime…just waiting for the sunlight to emerge through the trees. The photo and these words are greatly appreciated.

In the soul of the dark night,
A dark light shone upon my face,
and I heard my voice like it was the first time:
“Dance with me!” yelled my reflection.
Peaceful harmonies illuminated the mirror of our love in being – 2 b’s and c’s weaving a magic red carpet to a whole new world – one supernatural state of choice – the superlative Lunar Eclipse.

How deeply this resonates with my experiences of late. My talisman has spoken to me for the first time since I found it, over a decade ago. I never realized or appreciated its profound consciousness and am extremely humbled by its gifts of wisdom and communication. Just this past week, I noticed that my vision, with eyes closed, has clear portals appearing within them, similar to a clear window amidst the haze, or a patch of clear still water surrounded by moving waters. I have been approaching this window with intrigue, as it draws me in to peek through to the other side. It was truly astonished to read this unexpected beautiful verse this evening…Thank you…

Hey Jody,
Sometimes it’s hard to see through the clouds, and to ever imagine that anything good could come our way. When we go through hardships they’re ever so difficult to overcome, but when we do, it’s the greatest gift, we look back and we can truly appreciate how strong we are as people. The best thing you can do in these times, is try to be the best possible version of yourself, say yes to things that you would normally turn down, even if deep down you feel like saying no, everything that we do, that we normally dislike becomes a lot more normal, and helps our wellbeing loads if we just try to better who we are <3 you are strong and you can do this, when your being positive, you will attract positivity, it took me so long to realise this however as I felt just like you. Thing is when we feel down, even if positive things do come our way, they're almost invisible to us, as were living in a different ' wavelength ' almost of feelings, but if we try to see things with an open and positive heart, even the bad can seem okay :) I hope this helps you, I found all of the things I have mentioned helped see me through some terrible times, ALSO help others, I found helping others made me feel a huge sense of love and happiness, it took me a while to reach this however, I was very adamant and at a point of wanting to just stop trying really! :) But we owe it to ourselves to be glowing<3 Have a lovely day xo
