Wheels

How has your week been?   I have felt full of ideas and energy, but also, somehow, outside of time.  There is the sense of its passage, the churning of the wheel of days, the rising and setting of the sun and moon.  But here I BE, in a kind of suspended animation.  Remember in science class, during the unit on space and astronomy, we learned that as astronauts travel away from the gravitational pull of the earth, they leave its synchrony?   Like in the original Planet of the Apes movie, Charlton Heston wakes up from deep space sleep and crashes to some unknown land. It's mostly deserted, a kind of a wasteland, an eerie wildscape with very few beings.  The story ensues, blah blah blah, and he never can figure out where he is until the very end of the movie, when he encounters a  portion of the Statue of Liberty, it having been destroyed in some mysterious apocalyptic event. He seems physically pretty much the same as when he entered his sleep pod, but immeasurable time has passed on Earth while he snoozed, outside of its power. Well that's me this week. 
When I took a moment  to tune in before sitting down to write, behind my closed eyes I saw a massive brilliant light, like a star, maybe our own Solaris, shining within a world.  It was so intense and fiery, it had burned away all vegetation, all evidence of previous life form.  What was left did not seem destroyed, but purified.  I knew that when the evidence of life returned, it would include only those species that had evolved past the pull of the old creation.  During my pre-write mind-quieting I also saw a giant bingo ball basket(haha, did that really just get written?!) spinning and spitting out new creative works and opportunities. The specifics of what's to come are still a mystery, but the message seems clear.
As of this week, I am committing to a few behavior tweaks to make space for creative exploration.  Less streaming, more sleeping. A little fasting, and plenty of exercise.  It's open season as to what will come of it all, so, as ever, I will have my shoulder to the work wheel, teaching some yoga and making bodywork magic.  Click the link for yoga, or to make an appointment.
