Eclipse season, reciprocity and the dream of space and time 🌚
|
Hey love! I don't tend to 'get started' till late on a Monday. I spent this morning listening to mantras and copying poems into my new poetry journal (thank you, Gwen). The thread I have been weaving with today is 'meeting places', or 'skin and other thresholds'. I wait at the doorway of my breath
sacred wind, loyal friend,
walking me towards the moment.
I remember reading that your skin never closes.
She is a Mother, always open and ready to receive.
She holds you, contains you, wraps herself around you.
All the soft, dark, slippery places,
protected in whale and ocean.
March is a corridor of thresholds and I see them brightly. The eclipse energy has a radiating field around it, asking us to turn towards the shadows that are holding us back. What is your bigger vision? I asked the 300hr graduates on Saturday. Everyone was longing for more space and time. A simple existence. Days and mornings to create and imagine. I have designed a life where work is practice and practice is everything. Listening to mantras and writing poetry is my 'work'. It pours into this 'newsletter' and will seed and feed my 'classes' this week. Every social post, voicenote, email and task will come from the longing to be in sacred reciprocity, to offer, receive and create. Resourced from fullness and love. I wish for us all to stop wearing the burnout badge, to stop comparing, pushing, striving and acting out of not-enoughness. Perpetuating the same old colonial capitalist oppression. It runs so deep. As we walk through this corridor of thresholds, we have the chance to look at what needs to dissolve and die for us to realise the bigger vision. What is your dream life? This is the greater intention behind How NOT To Be A Humble Healer and I'll be sharing about how to create more time and space in your life by becoming more financially buoyant. I'll teach you how to consistently build a mail list, grow community, make semi-passive income, know who you want to serve and learn the vital essentials about brand, business and finance. All while we sit in community and support each other. Because we all need to feel the meeting place of support. You don't have to do this by yourself. Come along to the free webinar on March 24th, 7-8.15pm and I'll share more. In love and reciprocity. Col 🌺

Good morning love 🖤 I was talking with a dear friend the other night who asked me to share more about the last year and this wild descent. About midlife, individuation and how I’ve been experiencing it. I didn’t know where to begin. To attempt to articulate the layers and levels of animacy, synchronicity, archetypal forces, real life magic and deep alchemy that has gone down. Along with bottomless grief, unbearable pain I never wanted to face, a reality I wouldn’t have been able to fathom...
I was looking for a teacher, I found a lineage. I was looking for a practice, I found a path. And somewhere along the way, without quite knowing when it happened, I found my people. And they are all my Teacher. They all point me back to Source. Lib Hello love, I struggle with the guru-student relationship but finding a teacher was a necessary step for me and perhaps it is for you. In the past, when people have asked me about a 200hr training I have always advised to find a teacher, not a...
Morning love 🙏🏻 It feels like Autumn outside. A whisper of cool wind and the foreshadowing freshness of everything falling away. A year to the day, I journeyed to Greece for what would be a life changing pilgrimage. Today I find myself, once again, packing headscarves and floaty dresses but this time to follow the call of the Magdalene 🌹 She is the rose, the Divine Mother, the first Apostle, the Sacred Whore. A leader, healer, teacher and, for me, a bridge into wholeness. Both thorn and...
