[Yasskin Marc]

Yes ~ bear is right ~ !! ~ I’m quite sure I was there that night ~ it was quite awhile ago.
Every time I see you I think of how you spoke that night ~ how wonderfully astonished I was.
Such a clarity and depth and mystery here ~ thank you for sharing this Carlie.

much love,
~ Marc 🙏 💛⚡️

>> FROM CARLIE
>> 
>> Last month Taylor shared a writing she did about a healing journey and it reminded me of a drumming journey I had several years ago about healing the fear, anger and wrong doings I want to heal within me.   After reviewing my writing this is the version I shared this week on Tuesday.
>> 
>> DOWN THE RABBIT HOLE
>> 
>> I lay on the padded flour in the Yurt listening to the drum beat that will pull me down my rabbit hole and into the center of the earth.
>> 
>> There is a reluctance in my mind to dive into the unknown.
>> 
>> Plummeting down the dark tunnel I am hurled to the dirt floor and am met by Crow who pecks at my eyes.
>> 
>> Bear comes to me and begins to claw and shred the skin from my body; into the muscle and organs.
>> 
>> Blood and body fluids leave a stain on the virgin snow beneath me.
>> 
>> As Bear devours my organs she reaches for my heart and tucks it gingerly into her pocket of fur.
>> 
>> She takes me to her winter cave which is dimly lit by the fire under the cauldron in the center of the room.
>> 
>> I can see black writing etched into my bones; my numerous fears, judgements and transgressions I so dearly want to heal inside me.
>> 
>> There is a large pink eraser beside me and I begin to try and rub away each of the writings.
>> 
>> Bear asks me, “What are you doing?"
>> 
>> “I am trying to erase my fears, my angers, my judgements; to become pure and clean,”
>> 
>> She says you can erase each wound individually, but it will take a long time
>> 
>> or you can jump into this vat of lye and dissolve your bones and all the unsettling emotions and experiences that they hold.
>> 
>> As I stand on the lip of the large kettle looking down at the caustic  liquid, I must now make a choice.
>> 
>> Will I surrender to the unknown, to be ridden of that which burdens me.
>> 
>> I turn to Bear and ask “But what about my heart?"
>> 
>> She says, “I will keep it safe for you.  Your heart is pure and loving.
>> 
>> Your heart is safe with me.
>> 
>> Your bones will dissolve, but remember that your heart is pure.
>> 
>> You need to trust yourself.
>> 
>> Remember, trust yourself, 
>> 
>> you are Love."
