Show notes
Welcome to a new month, Wild Souls! We cross the threshold into the month of May on the Bealtaine/Samhuinn portal, a time where we are invited to sense the intersections of birth and death.
We are working with the theme of choice this month. How do we engage with this the energy of choice in a time when so many of us feel so powerless, so totally devoid of choice? By coming home to ourselves — by choosing ourselves, no matter what. By coming home to what resides within ourselves, giving it our attention and acknowledgment, even in the midst of challenging situations.
What and where are we birthing? What are we growing, nourishing, giving our time, attention and energy to? How are we moving through a death process? Are we giving space for our grief, our anger, our bewilderment in the midst of that process, and more importantly, can we choose to be in both at the same time, honoring both/and, instead of either/or?
C/W: The content in this episode contains references to trauma, white supremacy/privilege, climate change, extinction, and environmental degradation, cultural appropriation, addiction, body dysmorphia/gender dysphoria, birth, death, loss and grief.
