This is crazy. If you could see the posts in drafts…Gwas and I are so far behind in our posting and yet we’re knocking out about 1 every two days. Gosh! This is just a short one. The weather over here in the UK has been in the late 20’s (centigrade). So even though it wasn’t a special day in the calendar, we couldn’t resist but go out into the sacred land.
Gwas hadn’t been to the wizards wood in a while and so that was to be our destination on this warm early evening, Alderley Edge. We meandered around the forest becoming re acquainted with the Genius Loci of this magical place. After 30 minutes or so our destination became clear to us (we were following an intuitive path). Last year, I think, I found a place at the wood that connected to the Earths root.
This was the place that our intuitive wanderings had led us to. We reoriented ourselves a little because of the seasonal drift of the energies and each settled into our own beneficial places to commune with that great wood.
I was perched on a ledge with my back to the rock un focusing myself from daily thoughts and concerns. I let my mind drift down into the roots of the earth and let what was there drift up. My journey is a curious one to me and I guess that was on my mind. I wondered why I was on it and indeed whether there was a why. A message fluttered up from the Earth. It’s because of your roots. I thought it was myself talking to myself until the next sentence came into my mind. You made a promise to yourself when you were a child.
Whaaaaat??? Where had that come from? And why? I tried to garner more information, but nothing was forthcoming. That was to be it for this fine sunny evening. But what a stinker of a puzzle. I moved over to another outcrop where Gwas was completing his commune and dropped the message on his lap. He was as puzzled as I was. Still there you have it. The reason of this blog and my journeys is…
Because I made a promise to myself when I was a child.
Dear Universe, thanks for the enlightened knowledge…Not!
