Dreaming Myself Into Being

The Creation of Beauty
Guest Post by Deanna Fry, Circle Member & Mentor A Story: Dappled sunlight dances across the forest floor. The lacey shadows of Western Red Cedar boughs play with fern fronds, both blown by the light breeze. Silhouettes so similar, so intricate, so exquisite; like fine hand-crocheted doilies. The damp coolness close to the earth rises as …
Listening for Song in Nature
The song that came to me was inspired by my prayer calling for courage. From this, the words, Trust, Flow, Love, Be arose. I believe it was the first prayer that came to me in the form of a song.
Passion of the Soul and Compassionate Embodiment
My soul sent me messages in the form of hearts, as to where it was enjoying its embodiment through me. I found hearts in my garden, heart rocks at the beach after watching the sunset, a heart carved on a tree in the forest, hearts in crystals, hearts in flowers. It was my soul saying “Thank you for valuing me,” “Thank you for including me,” and “Thank you for sharing your human experience with me.”
The Beauty of Creation and The Place Between
I had come to Lake Ontario that day to give thanks for Nature’s incredible Beauty of Creation that I perceive through all my senses, and which sustains me, even in the darkest of times.

Ancestral Threads: Rooting Connections Through Waves of Change
Grandmother Cedar has been a voice of the Great Mother, calling us home. The time of living our lives externally has come to an end. We must find our way back home to ourselves; our inner life and drink from our inner well and light. Our disconnection from Mother Earth; the power of creation and spiral of life has led to disharmony, emptiness, war, conflict, and unfulfilled lives. We are now at the Great Turning point, moving to the centre of the spiral, going within to the place of oneness. It can be a treacherous journey without tools to navigate the dark passages; however, we have the light of our hearts to lead the way.
