I'm still processing the results of the stimulus received from three very different LJ friends since last weekend. I mentioned previously (I think) that the conversation last weekend catalyzed significant healing, and it's been going beyond healing to some amazing synthesis. It's a good thing work is slow this week. I've been doing a lot of journaling on the job, where it's much more quiet and peaceful than home.

There may be an invitation to join filters coming up in the next day or two. Most of what I'm processing right now is not something I want to put up even on a Friends-only setting, and this is far enough from the usual conversations on my LJ that I can't be sure where each person's interest and/or TMI level is.

In the meantime, I wanted to share this quotation from Feri practitioner and teacher T. Thorn Coyle, who has an LJ as [livejournal.com profile] yezida:

One thing I talked about was that we are edge walkers, and in walking the edges, we create new centers and open new worlds. It is our job to bring information back and share it - opening insight and dialog - becoming divine messengers. It is part of what I mean when I say that Feri is "queer". We are neither one thing nor another. We are many. We are often a little different, standing outside the status quo, and this difference brings perspective, flow, shape changing, and new insight. How do we share this with others so it is of help to us, them and the world (and all the worlds)? If we are still in a habit of hiding our strange feyness, this constricts life power, magic, and our effectiveness. It also means that we and those around us do not have the opportunity to grow.

Edgewalkers can always become bridge builders - whether we are psychics, artists, mathematicians, physicists, poets, dancers, or sexually queer - it is our job to first build bridges of communication within ourselves to bring these parts into dialog, and then to build bridges outside with others, opening up new vistas. When we achieve a new perspective, all the worlds become more varied and stronger.

Possibility opens.


As a Walker-Between-Worlds, her image of edge-walking becoming bridge building is particularly powerful for me.
