Hey Folks,
A little bit of shadow play on this list is good for what ails me. . .
I think we're also riding some of the same waves in the collective
unconscious as the rest of the world . . . the drums of war have been beating
again, unilateral chickenhawks and odd-duckling doves . . . the media 9/11
anniversary is bombarding images . . . all of our buttons are getting pushed
a lot these days (as I tend my herbs and worry whether or not I should use
the laundry sheets in the dryer - are they really full of nuerotoxins?)
Earlier someone asked if kundalini awakenings come in waves - it seems to me
that it sometimes does. And some of our "blockages" get addressed in waves
too!
My oldest and gnarliest 1st chakra issues are coming up these days - the good
news is, this go around (so far) it's small physical symptoms and thoughts
and forms showing up with their roots pulling up out of dry soil - rather
than my old school way of actually dramatizing them in my life. Approaching
conscious choices here - happy to say. Yet by definition, anxiety and
depression are just right there. Quietly waiting for me to choose them.
Instead I grounded - felt my delicate patterns trying to hold this old body
up - went running in the rain (it's so amazingly quiet when it rains in NYC)
did some kundalini yoga and ate rice, beans and arugula.
My guy finally showed up this evening semi-present. He'd finished the piece
he's been working on the last three weeks. I went outside and shared a cig
with him even though I quit a few weeks ago. Forwards, backwards, purity,
decay. All the dogs had shiny coats tonight. There was a dead slug at my
feet. I stood up and stretched down to touch my toes.
sometimes I look back and turn into salt,
sometimes I'm dancing in the flames,
Ana Maria
