Oh I loved this. I’m so here for your big elaborate rituals, the mundane moments and everything in between!!! Holding you in my heart this June. I trust you are crossing the threshold into the next version of you (and I imagine your daughter has been feeling that too - hence the “phase”). I’m looking forwards to meeting this next evolution of you ♥️
Ah yes, I didn’t see it like that but perhaps she’s crossing the threshold with me? Or at the very least, she’s been picking up the intensity I’ve felt! Thank you for this reflection 🤍
So so beautiful Kerry, and such a reminder of the magic in the ‘mundane’… I think sometimes we miss the ‘boring’ things because we are programmed to believe that it has to be ‘big’ in order for us to transform… but as you say, the true path of growing and evolving in life is much more sustainable when it’s slow and gentle and gives us time to adjust. It felt very poignant given the phase that you and I both feel we are in too and also that you used the cauldron from your younger years… somehow that feels really important to honour that little self. I’m looking forward to the post that’s brewing… you had me at rose and cacao!!!!! 🌹❤️
I really feel this. So often when I do ritual or a working, I feel like I need huge inner fireworks to go along with it to signify that I Did A Thing, but the planting of a seed doesn't give instant and visible effects, it's just the beginning of a much longer process. Thank you for sharing your experience, it's comforting to hear other people talk about this.
Yes yes, this seed analogy is so perfect. When we do a ritual, we’re planting that seed deep into the darkness and it can take months before we see ‘results’ or growth. But that doesn’t mean it isn’t sprouting and stirring underneath.
It’s so funny that, yes I wrote the post, but still somehow needed this practical reminder. Thank you for this reflection 🤍
Exactly this, the ceremony I did involved lots of letting go and I expected to feel this huge relief and weight to be lifted. But it rarely happens that way and it’s a slow unfolding over time. And honestly, if I did feel this sudden release, it may have feel a bit scary and overwhelming!
There’s so much stirring under the surface, for us both it seems 🌱 and we need to be gentle with ourselves x
