An extraordinary meeting is being assembled, with the lost
essences of your body, your heart, your psyche as the honored guests. They have
been wandering in the dark forests of the inner and outer worlds, but long now
for reunion.
Do you sense them nearby? Do you feel them gathering around
you?
Sadness, shame, loneliness, and grief. Abandoned peace,
unbearable openness, and long-forgotten aliveness. Pure vulnerability,
causeless joy, partially metabolized heartbreak. Even the ancient ones unworthy
and unlovable have arrived and are circling.
It is not always easy to see the lost ones, but you can
perceive them with the vision of the heart. They come not to harm, but to
herald a revolution. As forerunners of new life, they arrive as emissaries of
wholeness.
Open to your fellow travelers and keep them close, for they
are weary from a long journey. Even though they are tired, they will never give
up. They will never stop appearing in infinite forms, dancing and shapeshifting
around you, whether as your intimate partners, your children, raw somatic
sensations, or even as colors, the sun, the moon, and the stars.
While it may appear they are no longer on your side, they
love you and wish only for your full-spectrum participation in the miracle,
arriving with the hope they will receive just one moment of your presence, of
your non-shaming, interested curiosity and care. A home to return to where they
can rest and share their gifts.
No, it is not easy to receive them, for their message is
not always sweet, flowing, and peaceful. At times, it is wrathful,
reorganizing, and of the dark. While it may seem otherwise, they have not
appeared in order to be understood, transformed, or even “healed,” but have
come spinning out of the unseen only to be held, to be known, to be allowed
back into the vastness of what you are.
To complete the great cycle of the sacred return.
