Temple of the Sacred Feminine

Join the Caravan of Love 11/11/19!!!

Temple of the Sacred Feminine Come, come, whoever you are. Wanderer, worshiper, lover of leaving. It doesn't matter. Ours is not a caravan of despair. Come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times. Come, yet again, come, come. ~ Jelaluddin Rumi

Spring! New Life Emerging!
May 1, 2019  Sheila Foster
It feels so good to reach out to you and be back in my writer's chair. I stopped working on my book, my blog, and my monthly Shout Outs in mid-September when I began packing to move. I did send out a blog to my list December 23, 2018, called “A Moving Experience,” which is a sort of eulogy for the home I was leaving at Twin Lakes. That blog was recently uploaded to my site. I had had some very deep and interesting experiences while packing and distributing things I was not going to keep.
I am just emerging from that unexpected, profoundly initiatory descent that began mid-September when I started preparing to move. I was very focused on packing consciously, not rushing, and really feeling into what I was keeping and what I was not. Today, after a long break from writing, it feels new and fresh as I return to the upper world here in new surroundings. My internal world is also new, yet to be revealed. It was hard to leave the Twin Lakes area, and I still haven’t fallen in love with living in central Boulder, about 5 minutes from everything that feeds the soul, is naturally good for the body, or smells like fresh-baked bread. The large, light-filled office/art studio space I am still organizing called to me because I had not made art, or even opened the boxes, in three years at Twin Lakes. Writing was my exclusive art once I arrived there. Now it is both.

Many, if not most, of the people I know, as well as I, were the odd ones in one way or another in our families of origin. Most of us left home, and maybe even the state we lived in, after high school or college and lived life in very different ways than our families back 'home.' Growing up, we may have felt alone, weird, the oddball, shame or shamed, the family or school scape-goat, for being so different, for walking the edges instead of being in the circle. Here is a positive take on it: we were and are breaking generational patterns.

I just sent out my first email blog since September!
I have been packing to move into downtown Boulder!
Feel free to read it, share it, contact me via email but not through Facebook as I am rarely on here.
