Welcome and Namaste

A year long project recording my thoughts, feelings and intuitive knowings or occurrences as they appear each day. This is my personal project for connecting with the cycles within and the cycles around me.

February 16 - Dressing for freedom

Well, the past fortnight has surely been an interesting cycle of events! Although I feel that there has been a ramping up of energy, this has matched a slowing down of the physical body.  For myself, I have felt almost disconnected from daily life and wanting to sit in Source more often - or even just vegetate.  So, apart from working with Celticai Studio, I've been trying to be nice to myself.  That hasn't always been successsful! *laughing*

Where has Summer gone?  The heat of February hasn't presented itself very often.  I still wake in the morning with the need to pull a light blanket over my slumbering form rather than the usual lying in a pool of your own sweat.  I'm not complaining! Just making an observation! :)

The rains of the last week have kept the grasses growing well and have truly tested our time management with trying to keep the lawns looking well maintained.  We haven't quite won that battle either!

What has kept me on my toes is that I have taken to wearing dresses and skirts.  What?  You mean those flowing things that get tangled around your legs as you walk? Definitely.  I'm wondering when my real self will return!  I haven't worn dresses since high school graduation for Goddess' Sake!  Due to my career as a teacher, my body issues and also burgeoning health issues at the time, the last twenty odd years have meant that dresses and skirts stayed in the hidden recesses of my cupboard.

Then in the last week, these poor swathes of material have been given a chance to be aired and worn with joyous abandon.  I will cautiously admit that they make me feel feminine and flowing.  I will also admit that they do give you a sense of freedom.  Whether they look great or not is not the matter under consideration.

So, I asked Spirit - why am I suddenly feeling the need to dress up in skirts and dresses?  The reply - this is the Goddess Within asking for expresssion in your daily life.  When you reach for that item of clothing,  acknowledge how this makes you feel so that you can then use this throughout your day's work.

Okay, okay. I get it.  But one gust of wind that makes me do a Marilyn Monroe and I'm going back to my yoga pants and trousers!

I hope that the Goddess is flowing well for you this day.


Namaste
