6.12 pm this evening
The time felt ripe. A new initiation, another rite of passage.
My eyebrow ring has been a symbol of my flight into self, my blossoming spirituality, my joyful embrace of what is my own.
It has been a powerful blessing for me.
I continue this journey,
and I am stripping myself down to the bare essentials.
So I unscrewed it. Took out the beautiful blue titanium
that has adorned my face for three months now. Buried it in the garden.
Thanked it deeply for its gifts.

I took my eyebrow ring out today
and buried it into the garden
for new things to grow.
I am so grateful for this journey.

Leonie, what a wonderful lesson in how to release oneself from one stage in life onto another. No need to take anything on as permanent. When change is necessary, let it happen. I applaud your ceremony of removing and burying the eyebrow ring. I ought to consider what I need to remove from my own life in order for other things or relationships to grow. I am grateful for my journey - and for yours. Yeah for you! Gail
JoyFunnyGigglySnort...this connectedness I have with kindred spirits. You, sweet Leonielight, I am honored to have a connection with...this too has been a season of "stripping" unneeded parts, unwanted layers...I even wrote about it very recently...
Bravo, SoulSister!

I LOVE this gorgeous painting of yourself, leonie! It is so delicate and beautiful!! I love the new style of drawing and painitng that is emerging from your soul!
That symbol youput on your forehead is very intriguing. Does it have a meaning I wonder? It looks almost East indian.
From California to Australia is a long way as the crow flies. Your words have travelled far. They have made an impact on me. Thanks, gotta fly.
