Dear Embodied Hearts and Dancing Souls,
For those who read Rob Brezny’s astrology publication, today it contained a snippet of a poem from Jane Hirschfield. When I looked it up, I liked it so much I wanted to share it with you.
Here, food:
Da Capo By Jane Hirshfield Take the used-up heart like a pebble and throw it far out. Soon there is nothing left. Soon the last ripple exhausts itself in the weeds. Returning home, slice carrots, onions, celery. Glaze them in oil before adding the lentils, water, and herbs. Then the roasted chestnuts, a little pepper, the salt. Finish with goat cheese and parsley. Eat. You may do this, I tell you, it is permitted. Begin again the story of your life.
No matter my lackluster diet or exercise program. No matter whatever impediment is in your way. You can start Here. Do not pass Go.
Begin again. I’m learning: the Fire Horse wants you nourished for your ride.
Your Feet and not Knowing. In the process, remember what Deborah Quibell advises in her poem, Loosen Your Grip.
“Tie a string from your heart to your feet and only walk in the direction that makes you tick.” ~ Deborah Quibell
It’s your feet that hold your knowing. What direction? What pace? Let them orient you. It’s OK to take small steps, to walk slowly. The other day, prior to a meeting, I turned to my body to get insight into how to best prepare for the meeting. (Yes, you can do this!) I began walking very slowly in tiny steps so my body wisdom had time to rise to my awareness. (This bottom-up processing is a core aspect of your body’s operating system.) My body sent me a pop song that gave me the perfect starting point for the meeting.
Your Heart. Ask what truly matters to your heart. Imagine a dragon (my version of a Fire Horse) breathing fire in it — there is a purpose in this light that you direct. This is where I am now. The next step is remembering how to climb onto the dragon’s back, onto the seat of our true power, and taking the reins.
To your exquisite unfolding. With my hand in yours. Stay #heartwoke!
