I almost cried
when I remembered the fact that you died but you never really went away. I almost cried when she held my feet in the back of my skull like she was holding water. When I looked at my vulva in a mirror for the first time through the eyes of love. When I looked up, and I saw the crescent moon in the broad daylight hanging above the oceans swells. When I felt the parts of me that can no longer exist in relationship with you.
A devotional reflection on healing attachment and the somatic work of return
Connection is a fundamental human birthright that sadly so many of us miss, especially once we get into the deeper layers of intimacy both inside ourselves and with others. It only takes a few times of reaching to a caregiver or friends and being rejected for us to begin sinking into the layers of shutdown. Collapse will come in – shoulders will roll in and pelvis will tuck. It learns to defend itself against hope and trust. We need connection. This sacred desire for connection is what were called to carry in our cauldron this Gemini season.
