I started on my spiritual journey over 10 years ago. The catalyst was my boyfriend of 8 years (now husband) declaring that he was joining the military. I happened to meet a medicine woman shortly thereafter. Funny how the universe lines things up, eh?
I spent close to a year and half working with her. Monday or Friday nights were spent with my Grandma, Mom, my best friend, and even sometimes my Dad, as well as a host of other women that I grew to love and cherish.
Usually the first hour or so was spent receiving new information – learning many of the basics that I’ve already shared with you here on Radiant Lemons. The rest of the three-hour class practicing or healing issues we were living through at the time.
Since moving away many of the women have also left the area, including my mentor. Continuing to meet never panned out. Zoom wasn’t a thing then and Skype barely allowed three way calling. A Facebook group was created and fractured. We still sometimes share things that are happening.
In the meantime, I’ve spiritually ebbed and flowed. I get caught up in the human experience and forget the magic of living in spirit.
In the three years since my last post I’ve changed jobs 5 times, lost the only dog we raised from a puppy to an autoimmune disease, moved twice, and am now at the beginning of my spouse’s 2nd deployment of his military career.
It seems that I require foundation cracks in order to turn inward and grow. It’s also quite fitting to be coming back around to a spiritual time in my life after 10 years.
In this insane year of 2020, are you seeing any cycles or patterns in your life?
