One of the participants in yesterday’s small group workshop and ceremony captured this photo of me.

I had been outside in the freezing weather all day. It had snowed, rained, and been sunny and windy. In this moment, I was barefoot, standing on one of the stones in the fire pit, letting my feet receive the warmth the fire was offering.

Over the weekend, I gave my first public reading from the book I am publishing, The Sacred Unfolding.

It wasn’t until I finished reading that the experience truly landed in me.

This past weekend, I held private ceremonies for the Private Tier of The Language of Spirit.

Each person had an hour in the stone circle.

The stone circle offered the masculine container for a profound feminine experience. A place to soften, receive, and be moved by what they encountered.

He entered the program knowing that the way he met this threshold mattered.

He wanted to receive as much as he possibly could from the experience—not by waiting passively for something to happen, but by participating fully in what was being offered.

And that is exactly what he did.

There are experiences that end when we leave them.

And then there are experiences that continue to move through us long after the physical moment has passed.

Lion’s Gate is still moving through me.

For a long time, when people heard the name of my company, they heard one word.

RoseQuartzMediumship.

Spoken quickly, it almost blends together.

I have always loved the liminal spaces.

The places where one thing meets another.

The places where the edges soften.

Every time I was willing to let go of holding myself a little bit more, the couch held me a little bit more.

The couch was always available.

The couch was always capable of holding me.

For many of us, these two truths can feel like they exist in opposition.

Especially if we have spent years abandoning ourselves.

Especially if we have learned to minimize our needs, soften our truth, or make ourselves easier to be with.

When we begin the journey back to ourselves, there can be a powerful awakening that happens.

There are moments in life that become sacred not because we planned them...

But because we were present enough to notice them.

This was one of those moments.
