De-composition....old growth forests and aspects of selves....


I have realized there's a leaf litter pattern on repeat, at times. A crafted intimacy developing, then a schism / tear, and then a barring of /cutting ties with, or having them cut from me. In particular around expressed vulnerabilities like well being challenges / difabilitys, or shock when I reveal the depths of distress experienced with living's ways. Such as involving ideation, or when I lose the sheen...

It's been a losing / loss that's repeated, and I can see it could continue to. Is this simply part of life's cycles, phases and ebb n flow? Like the building up of fallen leaves becoming a bed o mulch at tree base?

It can cause much wounding, and deep grief, acceptance as required, yet also anger, that this is in the flow of my oft gentle meandering path…..
People once dear and beloved over heartbeats... 

This last month has been fairly rough at times, and I'm a little weary of life's vicissitudes, to say the least. Are they simply as is, part thereof? A pause, here and there, to gather one's courage for the next bout? When will it strike next? Shadow work?

Yet, amidst suchnesses, in the last month I have completed a witchin' stitchin' piece 'de-composition' around such themes. Composted relationships (including with previous aspects of ourselves), lives n leaves, and situations.....their breaking down. At times and regularly to lead to a very natural rebirth, like mycelium n microbiome greeblies. Mayhaps, with time, patience, crafting places of tall, even, old growth forests….

So, in this pause, I breathe into my belly, my heart...the electromagnetic pulsing core, and feel into this stillness. That it's 2.30am helps me reach such spaces, the quietude, the drop in energies loose. Right now I can be kind to what must die, hold her hand like a midwife, or doula, to beyond. It's ok Chloeopal, you can let that part go (even if only for a time, as rehearsal). Let it compost, break down happens, growth too....
These are linked processes.....
Like Sista Luna’s dance amidst stars….
