Embracing Lifeâs Blessings
Life is wonderful. There is food on our plates, shared with beautiful souls around the table. A loving, supportive partner stands beside me, our children are joyful, and the land around us is blossoming in a sustainable, harmonious way. Despite these blessings, I have found myself lost in the doingâcaught in the fears of action and the pressures I still allow to creep into my heart.
The Fire of Transformation
I surrender these worries to the fire, to the fierce Agni of Kali, trusting it will burn away whatever hinders the fullest expression of life and the land.
Illumination and Inner Connection
As I write, the sun begins to shineâa gentle reminder of the ever-present beauty of the Divine and the inner connection we all share. Iâve attracted what is needed, and I cling to what is beautiful, yet I also hold on to the weighty shadows that keep me grounded just enough to stop me from soaring freely. Itâs frightening to break generational patterns, to confront what seems ingrained in our DNA, but these moments of challenge are precisely the opportunities we are offered to evolve.
Sacred Imprints in Our DNA
The sheer improbability of our existence in this specific time and space is a sacred blessing that lives in our very cells. Hidden within our DNA is the signature 10-5-6-5, symbolically translating to YHWH (Yahweh). We are all shaped from the same sourceâinterconnected, woven into the tapestry of the Divine. How do we want to live this gift of life? In trust and security, or in fear and worry? Whatever we project outward inevitably comes back to us, for our lives are a mirror of the subconscious mind and our emotional grounding.
Unveiling the Shadow: The Lakota Tradition
In Lakota tradition, Nagi is the ghost or shadow that stands between us and the Creator. It holds all the parts of ourselves and our lineage that remain unseen, unloved, or unheard. We are here to let it all be loved, as God made us. Because, in truth, everythingâlight and shadow alikeâis written within us.
Embracing Unity and Liberation
God experiences Itself through our choices, offering us the chance to trust the world around us and love every aspect of our being. When we bring the subconscious into the light of consciousness, we free ourselves from the constraints of separation and catch a clearer reflection of the Divine in all things.
