Breaking Through

What occurs in this breakthrough is not simply growth; it is much more dynamic. It is not a mere expansion of awareness, it is rather a kind of battle. A dynamic struggle goes on with a person between what he or she consciously thinks on the one hand and, on the other, some insight, some perspective that is struggling to be born. The insight is then born with anxety, guilt*, and the joy and gratification that is inseparable from the actualizing of a new idea or vision.  --Rollo May, The Courage to Create

Who knew that when we held our inaugural session of Matrilumina last August that so much growth and declaration could be forged in six days together. It reminds me of the figure of speech, "It dawned on me..." When the dawn arrives, so comes clarity, new trust, the beginning of something sacred and wonderful-ripe with potential.

It is like a battle, in a way, at least it has been for me in my journey with SouLodge: a glorious, toothy, gritty skirmish between what makes sense on paper vs. what's able to birth boldly into existence when we speak the broad and simple truth of the dream. When we are held in our community, and accountable to our community, we cannot fail. It's a warrior's game-drawing a line in the sand of what is ours to give and receive.

Feminizing that action is how we capture the precious flag and run like hell toward the Home of our own design.

*We'll help allay any guilt or anxiety you have about walking the tall, bright walk of your soul purpose. ;)
