SPIRIT SEEKERS, SPIRIT GUIDES
Throughout history and her-story,
there have been guardians and guides,
gods and goddesses,
empowerers and enablers,
who have inspired and encouraged people
to express their giftedness, their uniqueness.
The Holy Spirit sent at Pentecost,
in the Christian tradition,
is one such example.
Each of us possesses gifts unique to just us.
others in our family group
may recognise these gifts
as having been passed on from older generations.
We need to recognise these gifts;
name these gifts;
and nurture these gifts.

I saw a photograph of similar dolls in a book, "Anatomy of a Doll" by Susanna Oroyan.
"Spirit Seekers" were made by Anne Mayer Meier.
My interpretation is much more crude, less refined, less elegant but their voice is just as powerful.

HER WINGS
"My mother wanted me to be her wings;
fly as she never quite had the courage to.
I love her for that.
I love the fact that she wanted
to give birth
to her own wings."
Erica Jong
It gives me great joy to recognise and name the spirit guides and guardians in my life.
They accompany me as I become whom I am called to be.
They companion me as I transition from one way of being into another.
I am blessed.
I am grateful.
