Here We Go...

Today, I've taken the plunge, and I'm starting Sage/Priestess training with Vanessa - EEK!!! I'm joining an ongoing class, rather than waiting til October, because I feel really ready, right now!!

The truth is I've been preparing for a while... And this weekend I read this book and declared in my journal, I am

OPEN
WIDE
TO
WHAT
I
WANT

as printed large on page 148! And that means starting something new, expressing my deep soul desires, and being trained in a service I could never have imagined when I was considering training for the Anglican ministry 15 years ago....

This is the Earth-based, feminine-centred ministry I feel truly called to, and I am literally BUZZING!!

Weeks ago I bought this exquisite A4 journal which Maggie lovingly and skilfully made for me. It is SUCH  a beautiful object and the photo does not do it justice! And just look at that gorgeous bookmark she included



Inside I pasted this wonderful poem/prayer we have used throughout my Wild Soul Woman course, 'Invocation' by Ursula Le Guin



Next I pasted in a Wheel of the Year bought from here.



And lastly this - a wonderfully affirming and really insightful reading from the very lovely and talented Carrie which I won in a recent giveaway on her blog :)


Tomorrow, I will begin my studies proper, reading and journalling... There's A LOT for me to catch up on, but I've learnt over the past few weeks to go at my Soul's pace, to not rush or push... for She knows best :)
