Taking a Break!

It has been sneaking up on me the last couple of weeks...

I have to be honest, my friends, I’m not feeling it this week.

I’ve spent the last two weeks deep in transformation.  The planets or something literally kicked my ass and I feel like an overcooked noodle…  I’ve cried a lot this week… in all the ways crying is good for clearing emotions… I do believe I may finally be clear of the energy of things that have been stored for a very.long.time!   

I’ve officially made the decision to go on hiatus, and I’m not sure just how long it will be, but I suspect it will be at least until fall.    

Also, it took me pretty much all day and night to write this, which is why I know it’s time for a break. 

This turkey has been hanging out all day today outside of the house I’ve been staying in for the last two weeks.  I last saw him as part of a flock when I stayed here this past November, which seemed somehow more appropriate since it was near Thanksgiving. Interestingly, yesterday morning I saw him come walking up the long winding driveway to this very secluded, wooded home, all by his lonesome.  It seemed like he was coming to have a talk with me.  Like he was the next door neighbor coming to investigate who had come to visit.  But he hasn’t left since.  I noticed him prominently standing around in the garden outside of my door all day today.  I hadn’t seen him one time the 12 days prior.

According to www.spiritanimals.org, as an animal totem, the turkey symbolizes harvest and abundance.  When turkey as your spirit animal comes in your journey, it reminds you to take proper care of the seeds that will soon be ready for harvest.  It opens the door of opportunity for you to move ahead and grow.  I sure did have a good harvest after that November visit (since I literally started this blog a week later). 

I’ve again planted A LOT of seeds in the month of May (after feeling as though I was thoroughly rototilled in April) and I’m excited to see what begins to sprout once I tend to the garden of my heart with a bit of sun, water and the nutrients it’s craving. 

I will be back!  I hope you will be waiting for my update and that in the meantime, you also have a wonderful summer full of sowing seeds!

After an amazing walk along the river rapids from the runoff of the still melting snow of the mountains where I spent most of the last 8 years of my life… completely letting go by resting my entire body weight against a tree that looked like it was made for doing so…
