This past July, I had the privilege of spending a weekend with Bob
and Lee Nitsch, the son and daughter-in-law of the late Grandmother Twylah
Nitsch. Twylah was the Seneca Elder who shared the Seneca teachings of
Cycles of Truth, a foundational part of the Moon Circle Journal, with all who
would listen. Bob and Lee carry on her work, and came to Philadelphia to
lead a weekend seminar for contemplating and experiencing the meaning of the
Cycles of Truth in our life. Participants were invited to take
contemplation time outside in the gardens surrounding our meeting place.
During one walking meditation, I came across this placard peeking out
from among the flowers:
When I uploaded the pictures off my I-phone last week the photo I snapped of Jung's quote was the one that 'just happened' to land in the front of the album. Jung's quote is fitting for the waxing moon phase for October's call to walk and work with/in Truth. I think about my difficulties having 'clarity of vision' and I reflect on Sara's intuitive interconnection of visions, dreams, goals and desires on the Waxing Moon journal page. I ask myself, "where inside me, do I need to look (or sense) more fully, deeply, thoroughly to be more fully awake to my work and to the way I walk in my life? Am I willing to look there?"
Self reflection: Are there places I need to look within myself to be more fully awake to my vision for my life? Am I willing to look?
