The Deep Within





Suddenly a deep sweet earthy feeling comes from deep within the heart and soul, and when it does, we may have accessed that inherited knowledge that comes from ancient times of ancient wisdom.  It may come as a deep feeling of longing.  It may come as you are in that creative space of no time and no responsibilities.  It may carry a low whispering voice that you have not heard before that rises from the Deep Within.  Does it come from a place of instinct and you may not have noticed it before but now, when we have the time and space to listen, we hear?  

We have been, in this pandemic, stilled.  In that stillness there are all kinds of angst, of confusion, of fears, of frustrations, of griefs we cannot quite put a name to, never mind the ones we can.  Many will choose to stay in places of denial, in places of illusions (conspiracy theories).  Many will sink into the sacred places of soul.  We have come to know how fragile we human beings are.  Our priorities have changed, if we are growing and maturing in soul.  We have come face to face with that which we cannot truly control and the world is struggling to do so.  The only place to turn to, for comfort, for our own personal knowledge, is a soulful, spiritual, place. (Not speaking of religion.  Speaking of soul/spirit).

We have gone back to old ways of treating, of keeping safe against medical issues;  we rest; we wah our hands and keep rigorous cleanliness of ourselves and ours.  Now is our opportunity to know that deepens that is attached to old ways. Some may call it paganism, some may see it as demonism, some may see it as mysticism, but this is denial that our soul/spirit has all the knowledge it needs to find joy, calm, peace, and absolute agape.  It is a chance to enter through the portal of soul and access ancient knowledge that will help us cope, to be resilient, to be able to relinquish what power we thought we had, and honor that restoration of our own personal access point to that which is ancient knowledge.

I have choice experiences in my life.  I was put in a place to be given access to ancient ways and knowledge through living, loving, learning in places I was sent, brought, to retrieve and to teach in those isolated communities.  I spent time in the sweats, in circles, in ceremonies that I would never have been able to experience and to learn from.  Once taught, one never forgets.  I share what can be shared.  I hole tight to that that cannot.  It was like being fed because I was hungry; like I was being given holy waters, for I was dry; warmed in deep ways from ways that had left me cold; loved in ways I had never known love;  I was wakened from some lifelong deep sleep.  So much is open to us if we still ourselves and listen.  

To access this, spend some alone time out in the woods, in a valley, in the mountains, on the prairies.  Open your mind and let Mother Earth teach you how to listen.  Spend time, wherever you are, to find a quiet place and simply think and listen.  We all have all the answers we ever needed within us.  No one has to tell you what your soul/spirit should believe in, or ways to behave, or pray or seek Creator’s voice.  Our own beautiful feminine energy and rhythms are part of the access portals to our own inherited ancient DNA wisdoms.  It is time that we use the wisdom we were born with.  Do that, sister-friends, do that.
