Jenna, your experiences are so deeply profound and beautifully described. Thank you for sharing them. They fully illuminate the interconnectedness of life and the transformative power of inner growth. I resonate with your reflection on exceptional human experiences as initiations into deeper understanding, and how they shape our journey toward wholeness. Thank you for sharing these initiations; they inspire such meaningful contemplation about the deeper reality of life and path of individuation for me.
Actually, you've reminded me of a week-long seminar I attended years ago and how during one meditation we were encouraged to create a sanctuary. Suddenly I found myself running along grass until I reached a wood where I met with an ancient Tree Elder who invited me in. I walked through what I can only describe as a door of light sparkles and into the most fabulous circular library and so much more. At one point I remember opening my eyes and looking around the room and laughing in awe.
I think of my sanctuary often, especially as I'm a writer and it was full of books and magick! It's never gone away, nor have my pre-birth memories of being what I can only call, a 'light-being'. Thanks for sharing Jenna such a thought-provoking post and inviting your readers to share. ✨
Your experience with the Tree Elder sounds phenomenal! While reading, I felt I was there with you. And it's no accident you included that story here. I was debating about putting in the exceptional experience my late husband Gene had with a tree spirit, but decided it would make this post too long. Tree made an appearance through you after all!
Sending much appreciation to you for your kind comments and for stopping by and taking the time out of your busy schedule as a therapist, poet, book author and blogger to share your beautiful story and insights with us here. So far, this format is a great way for us to connect!
PS I have an inner sanctuary, too, that I sometimes visit during meditation when I need answers to difficult questions I hold in mind. I think you've inspired me to write about that next... ❤️
I am moved by your post as I resonate with each interconnected element of it.
Thank you, Wade! I'm glad this post was meaningful to you...

Interesting, as always.
