Oracle of Stillness-Paradox- Joy and Sorrow Walk Together

Yesterday was a day full of challenges and mistakes… I am working on a new series of mixed media weaving and had to do a lot of re-considering and re-working.

I also got a couple of other things quite wrong, so had to remind myself to be curious about what I could do about that.

At bedtime, I asked my Dream Guides and Wise and Well Ancestors for guidance, and what immediately popped up was: Do some Ho Opono Opono, so I did. It’s very helpful!

This morning, I woke up with a cluster of phrases in mind as I floated in the hypnagognic state:

Gifts from the Dream Guides and Wise and Well Ancestors, for sure:

“Pax Vobiscum”, “Fiat Lux”, “Que La Lumiere Soit” and “Pause, Breathe, Begin Again”.

It also made me think:

These challenges are the reason why the mixed media Oracle of Stillness Woven Woman: “Paradox- Joy and Sorrow Walk Together” is so important to me.

She speaks the truth of dealing with the challenges that help me to understand that life is multifaceted, complicated, messy, sometimes uncomfortable and downright miserable at times, too…. BUT… in among all that, there is still Peace, Wisdom, Strength, Tenacity and the ability to maintain the Courage to be Curious and the willingness to accept that sometimes I say and do things that I am unhappy about and have to find a way to reset my compass, and to Pause, Breathe and Begin Again….

Yup. It’s a Paradox and it’s profoundly healing and deeply soulful. Not easy… but oh so necessary.

I’m posting all the images from the Oracle of Stillness here on www.tottietalkscrafts.com
