Hello Every Beautiful One,

This beautiful season calls us to introspection. We go into the deep places where we can experience comfort and care. Inside. Louise Hay has an affirmation that it is safe to look inside. How many of us really understand how true this is? We are truly being called at this time to discover and recover what is valuable to us. What are the great treasures we have given to others through who we are and how we live? What gifts have we given future generations through our mindfulness and creativity? Our creativity is one of our greatest blessings. How can we create a gift, a prayer, a poem for someone who was a treasure to us or brought magic or grace, peace or wisdom into our lives? We are the gifts. How do we treasure our gifts and value the gifts of others? Each day is a gift. Count every meal as a blessing and send loving thoughts to those who prepared it.

Write a letter or poem of gratitude to the earth, to a teacher, to an ancestor, and send it air mail wherever they may be. Come alive, recognize that planting a tree is a powerful remembrance and so is a sculpture, a drawing, a letter, or a dance.

Thank you life. And thank life for you.

Make a blessing, send a voice of gratitude to all that we don’t understand reveling in the Mystery.

With Great Blessings from the Mystery, Char Sundust

In Memoriam

Many blessings and great gratitude to all who supported the transition of a beloved practitioner in our community. Death is a divine appointment with the mystery, we all have this appointment, we don’t know when and we don’t know how, but we do know we want to leave as many blessings as he did in this community and for the sweet earth. This is also a time of death and rebirth. Special deep gratitude to all those who have supported Dariusz Rawa in his journey to the Mystery. This community shines in your strength, kindness and connection to Spirit.

With Deep Love, Char

Sincerely,

SOI

Spirit of Winter, we ask for your guidance.

May we experience your gifts of dreaming, of gestating, and remembering in the deep places who we are. May we remember our wishes from childhood. May we take action on the beauty that still resides therein, a way that honors the sacred dark that holds the stars, that maintain our wishes until we are willing to bring them down to earth. Help us bring them down to earth.

Thank you Spirits of the North.

Thank you Mystery.
