Transformation. Sometimes we don’t notice when it happens. Sometimes it’s happening while we sleep or take the bus or plan a trip.
Sometimes we see an old photo and we see all the years ahead captured in that tenderness, that curve of the shoulder blade, that lithe. We see ourselves in in a new friend’s smile and the twinkle of our Dad’s eyes.
A large white bird perches high up in the tree. I find myself sitting down on our landing to watch. Is it an eagle, a hawk? The view is different here. I don’t sit on the stairwell as a habit. To see “the world in a grain of sand” as quoted by William Blake. “And heaven in a wild flower. Hold infinity in the palm of your hand. And eternity in an hour".
It’s not such tough stuff this transformation we speak of. Just show up. Listen. Raise your arms overhead, then bow. Step back into downward facing dog. Right foot forward, arms overhead like a flame, stoking that internal fire, stirring the currents of creativity and magic that reside within.
Thank you for joining me in exploring the third chakra this week through imagery of Shiva and through core work that connected us to our will and our self-worth and our warrior-power in this world! Namaste, Lynn
