We have just marked the winter solstice and have celebrated the sun moving slowly but steadily back towards its pinnacle of strength. We measure this inching in minutes today, but long ago our ancestors measured it by stars and stones, in the winds and sprouts. Even though the sun is returning, it is also the time when winter deepens.
The nights are still long and it can seem that the darkness falls heavy on us with its relentlessness. It is no wonder that this is the time of year we surround ourselves with bright twinkle lights on houses and trees. The human handicap of duality has created the association of light and dark with good and evil. The darkness has become something to vanquish. But the darkness is a gift. It is the Divine potential of Creation. If we can see it as such and step into it, powerful magic awaits within its realms. The invitation is there in the sudden early twilight. We find a soft space, burrow into it, turn out the lights. Instead of a drumbeat or music, we choose silence. Our breathing and our heartbeat might draw our focus at first, leading us deeper, relaxed yet aware of all of our senses. We are aware of the stillness. We invite the darkness to penetrate our entire being. We lose the boundary of our skin, our mental constructs. We might register it as a feeling of absolute nothing at first. Uncomfortable as our atoms and consciousness become unbound. As we surrender to the dissolving of self, we expand to become everything. We realize the darkness is the potential of all possibilities. It is the moment of Divine inspiration before the multidimensional tapestry of the cosmos is woven into form. And we too are the weavers. A thread comes to us indistinguishable in the inky void, but we have the knowing it is there, and we can bring it back with us. There might be a feeling of our essence being drawn together, a wooshing of the time-space continuum coming together in the space of our cells. A flicker of light in the distance draws us forward. Growing brighter, we are birthed anew into the light. The thread still in our hand, we are poised at the moment of our own creation. Our tapestry awaits.
