I love this, Dawn - you've perfectly caught just how I've been feeling lately, too, which is such a comfort - a foot on the floor in these weird, whirling times. Thank you so much! x

Thank you Helen. It's good to hear others feel the same. It gives me hope that the tide maybe turning.

The synchronicities in this post are astounding; I could have written most of this myself! Even the Red Thread has come forward on two other occasions this week. The power of connection and listening to the whispers is so strong at the moment, magical times for sure.

Isn't it just! That's amazing Alison. Thank you for sharing. At the moment, I can't see a path to where I want to be but I know that speaking these thoughts into the world is the start!

Absolutely agree, and that's what I was told in Glastonbury last weekend, trust the path you're on even if you can't see where it's heading.

Trust is such an important part of any journey isn't it?

It is good to hear you say you can't hack it anymore, why do we need to passively accept? I just this morning read in Nostos written by John Moriarty 'I wouldn't blackmail myself into being purely modern man. Is it not from our most ancient selves that we must understand the seas, that we must understand the stars?' I feel less alone with it when I read his works. Thank you for that lovely feedback on my course, can I use it as a testimony?

What a beautiful quote. Thank you for sharing Jonathon. And yes, I can't hack it but unknotting ourselves from this web we have woven is not easy and at times feels impossible. I too often find myself in old patterns. As you well know, the woods have the answer and my time in the woods is calling.

Looking forward to joining you on the 20th for unwind in the woods amd yes, absolutely, please do use whatever quotes you would like. x
