‘Only the heart can touch the sky.’Β Rumi
2020 is the year of the heart chakra and as Covid-19 attacks the lungs, we have an important task at hand;
Clearing and healing the wounds in our heart and acknowledging our deep needs, that for so long, we have ignored.
Grief, rejection, emptiness, anger and separation, are just some of the wounding that can happen over time and when we learn to see these wounds with love and compassion, honesty and truth;
We can open this space to reveal and illuminate, it’s hidden treasures;
Unconditional love, expansion, abundance, peace, compassion, joy, good health and a reunion with life.
John O’Donohue beautifully reminds us to feel it all.
‘When the old ghosts come back
To feed on everywhere you felt sure
you had healed……
Do not strengthen their hunger
By choosing fear;
Rather, decide to call on your heart
That it may grow clear and free
To welcome home your emptiness
That it may cleanse you
Like the clearest air
You could ever breathe.
Allow your loneliness time
To dissolve the shell of dross
That had closed around you;
Choose in this severe silence
To hear the one true voice
Your rushed life fears;
Cradle yourself like a child
Learning to trust what emerges,
So that gradually
You may come to know
That deep in that black hole
You will find the blue flower
That holds the mystical light
Which will illuminate in you
The glimmer of springtime.’
John O’Donohue – For Loneliness

Beautiful…and soothing! Thanks Karen, for you always seem to post what is most needed in the moment. I hope that you and yours and well and that you are able to find balance in this crazy time. I see so many people struggling and it is hard to not let that affect me. But I am allowing the space to fill with…whatever is there!
Sweet Blessings…stay safe β€
It is hard to watch others struggle, whether we know them or not and although we usually canβt do much for them, we can imagine seeing them being held in light, healing and love. The most important work right now is healing ourselves and often focusing on others keeps us away from seeing what needs to be seen in us. Itβs a challenging time but an amazing opportunity to expand within. Keep doing your great work Lorrie. Many blessings π₯°π
Thank you, Karen. Your soft message hit home and I understand what you are saying…and I am grateful! It is a time of learning…in so many ways. I send lots of light and love…be well! β€
