Grand Rising

Within me
there is fire
there is water
there is air
there is earth

I am connected to all at all times

Within me
dwells the future
the past
all who were
and who will be

I am rising
We are rising

In our own ways
In our own time

For ourselves
For those we serve
For all in coexistence

Don’t be surprised by the quiet of the inner revolution and the slow pace of your shifts. They are guiding us to be patient, helping us surrender and to not simply experience and process, but integrate the information as it arrives.

Similar to this seasonal movement, the pace is giving us space. It is bringing us opportunity for ease when the world is challenging and heartbreaking. Taking care to harness our inner flame through these days with focus and clarity. It allows us to continue shining a light in the areas we need to nurture and strengthen, through loving compassion and kindness.

If this feels familiar and resonates in your soul, consider joining Illuminate from Within Retreat on September 11th, as we gather in community learning of rituals and practices to help prepare us for the autumnal season.
