The Spiral Path

Reflections, explorations and musings on the spiral path - in our daily lives, on our daily walks, on sacred journeys on ancient pilgrimage paths.  

The Spiral Path calls and challenges us to walk deeply and to live rooted and aligned, awake and aware. It calls us to be willing to connect with our core selves and from the depths of our deepest desires and dreams, aligned with our soul gifts, authentic beauty and creative genius, to live an extraordinary and free life!

Remembering to Walk!

Winot Cafe, Niwot.

Just completed my first good walk in a month. The flood really swept me off my feet and it's taken all this time to get back on my feet and walking again.

Picture
A misty autumn morning out at Coot Lake looking across the Boulder Reservoir to the Flatirons.

I am on my way back up to my mother's house to finish the packing and moving. One of my favorite places to walk, Coot Lake, is on the way to her house. I just spent the last hour walking a big loop under the big, open sky that had a light covering of clouds to soften the heat from the sun. Perfect morning. The dogs - both Rupert, my 20-month old Black Lab, and his cousin, Bug, a Golden Doodle, loved it! They ran each other as I walked with my KeenFit poles. We were all happy!

I share this because I recognized yesterday that when I don't want, I become disconnected from myself, my Self, my purpose and my core,as well as the Earth.

Wow. That's interesting. I just typed "want", not "walk". I meant to type walk.

So, to explore this unexpected thread, when I don't "want", I lose connection to myself. That my desires and wants are actually connected to my core and essence, and when I forget them, I forget myself.

I have the hardest time with wanting and desiring. Somehow, I have made it wrong, bad, selfish, self-centered and unnecessary. A distraction. A trinket or a bauble. Superficial.

And yet, what if something else is actually true? What if our desires are actually the yellow arrows, like the ones on the Camino, that guide us all the way to Santiago? What if these desires guide us home to ourselves, and align us with our purpose, gifts and mission?

And, what if, walking is the key, the task, that connects me with my desires, and my true self?

What if walking is also your key? The simple act of walking connects you and opens you up to your true essence, and from this place, all is possible?

Just a few gifts from the path from today's walk at Coot Lake!

    I love to walk.  I love to write.
     

    I am a pilgrim. 
    I am a Womb Shaman.
    I am the Feminine Christ Awakened.  
    ​I am becoming the Feminine Christ Embodied. 


    I walk the sacred spirals of the ancient pilgrimage paths and sacred sites along the "dragon" ley lines of the Earth.  I walk local paths. I walk to be in Nature.  I walk labyrinths and spirals. I walk to move and celebrate my body. I walk to come home to the truth of who I truly am, to connect with the Earth and Spirit, and to live my life aligned with my soul's path. My intention is to walk In Love, As Love, For Love.

    I have led Spiral Path Pilgrimage Walks & Retreats in Cornwall in the very southwest of England.

    Mostly, I have been walking the sacred paths of the Womb Spiral - internally and in Penwith, Cornwall.  These sacred journeys continue to take me more and more deeply in to the core essence of who I am - as a women and as the embodiment of the Divine Feminine.  As I root more deeply into my essence, I have experienced a strength and presence within myself that cultivates a clarity and ferocity that demands a willingness to stand in truth and love.  This in and of itself has created a tsunami of change in my life that
