We will shed many skins in this lifetime if we really lean in and embrace the messy chaos of it all. And just like the snake, we will emerge clearer each time, more colorful – brighter. In the end, our true self isn’t something to be found, only something to be revealed. It is not so much a seeking of the light that we must engage in then, but a “simple” remembering of the spark of light we inherently are.

We’re the kind of people who like to hear about what’s hard, what’s stupid, what’s annoying and sucks (there’s a lot). We want to scream and then cry and then laugh and then dance around on unicorn stick horses wearing silly hats. You don’t have to pretend here. We are here for the humaning.
Light and dark have been estranged for a long time. If we can learn to marry the two, weaving them together like a beautiful tapestry individually and collectively…I think that we can certainly hope for a brand-new kind of future

So, what follows “enlightenment,” or this oneness with the light? Embodiment. Embody means: “to put into a body.” We bring the light of the spirit back down into the human form. And we begin the messy but rewarding work of humaning.
Spirituality is often presented as a path of the mind and spirit – the masculine energy that transcends the body – where the goal is to leave the body to go up into the sky. But we often forget about the path of the heart and soul – the feminine energy that lives within the body – where the goal is to live your spirituality right here, in this body, on this Earth.
But of course, it’s both. Transcend to touch the light, descend to re-enter the body.
