There is a wistfulness in your eyes.

That fleeting glimpse of sunlight between the ancient trees,

that greater truth you seek

that feels elusive

as you step closer

as you reach out.

…

Dear one, all that you seek is not out there.

Follow your next breath instead

down into the blessing chambers of your heart.

Pause here as you await the next breath

to carry you down deeper still

into the sacred chalice held between your hips.

…

There you will find

all you you have been looking for,

all you have been longing for.

Hidden for generations and lifetimes,

hidden in plain sight

and now revealed.

…

The divine light of your being, anchored here.

The sacred wisdom of your soul, gifted from these depths.

The womb of creation itself, sourced within this holy vessel.

…

Grail seeker, the seeking is over now.

The whole universe and beyond

found within this sacred temple.

Remembering is only a breath away.

It is time to birth your untold dreams.

You are here and yet you have never left home.

You could not leave home.

Home is who you essentially are.

The wild and glorious truth of you.

The soft and vulnerable humanness of you.

The infinite sacredness of you.

All facets of home.

There is nowhere to go.

There is nowhere to seek.

Home is not a place, but your very being.

Your being of luminous wonder.

Your being of radiant joy.

Pure and eternal Love.

Yes, eternal Love already enfolding every part of you.

There is no part of you that is not held in Love’s tender embrace.

You no longer need to hide from sorrow or rage, shame or terror.

You no longer need to run from confusion or despair.

You no longer need to resist your passion, make yourself small, or deny your gifts.

There is room for ALL of you here.

Welcome home.

All of you.

Welcome home.

In every moment you are shaping this world.

Simply because you are here.

Simply because all is interconnected.

Your sacred melody dances over the oceans, sings to the mountains, the valleys, the plains and the forests.

The vibrant notes of your song reach to the stars and beyond.

There is no part of creation that does not know your name.

Yes, your presence makes a difference.

May you stay true to who you came here to be.

Breath breathing you.

Caressing you.

A sacred paradox.

Already healed and whole. Already All That Is. Pure Love wrapped as you, as me.

Pure essence. Pure Being.

Nothing can be added. Nothing can be taken away. Already and always, everything.

Simultaneously, day by day, breath by breath, an apparent journey of becoming.

Realising. Remembering. Embodying.

More each day. More with each conscious breath.

Deepening infinitely. Truth. Wonder. Joy. Peace.

One seamless sacred, grace-filled knowing. Turning up as kindness. Turning up as trust. Turning up as presence.

Here, now, nothing missing.

Being and yet also, becoming.

Lying on my back in the water.

Crystal clear ocean below me.

Crystal clear skies above.

The island shore only a few yards away.

Hot sand. Shells. Children playing.

And deep stillness of being.

Water hardly moving.

Body gently swayed.

Being breathed.

In and out.

Rise and fall.

Breathing with the ocean.

Breathing as the ocean.

Breathing with the island.

Breathing as the island.

Breathing with the Earth and Sky.

No separation.

Breathing as one glorious grace-filled breath at the edge of eternity.

Light upon the water.

Do you have any similar moments, where in the stillness you met yourself as all of creation and beyond?

Between worlds, between eras, between being and becoming.

Between caterpillar and butterfly.

Step by step, breath by breath, cell by cell.

The whole universe unfolding as me.

Human bridge of divinity, spanning all ages of history and all dimensions of potential.

All that Is. Earth and Sky, body and stars, roots and glory.

Bridged. Forever bridged in this moment, in this being.

No destination. No effort. No trying hard. Simultaneously everything and nothing.

Bridge of grace and wonder.

Closing the gap. Vulnerable human, ineffable spirit.

Bridging into truth.

Here, now, already and always, One.

She is the river. He is the banks. Rising from the source, flowing to the sea.

Shimmering light upon her sacred waters. Dreams. Vision. Passion. Ecstasy.

Meeting as the river, meeting as the banks.

How exquisitely she moves, held within his arms. An openness that makes magic possible.

How tenderly he protects, adores, caresses. A steadiness that makes magic possible.

Sacred union. The cosmic dance of creation itself. There is only One, becoming two, becoming one, birthing more.

Blessed by the stars, celebrated in the heavens. Truth made manifest, the ineffable taking form.

A cosmic dance of wonder, of Love. She is the river. He is the banks.

A light touch. A soft touch. Inextricable grace. Limitless power.

Sacred union within.

Blank page, smooth paper, no lines, soft pencil. Open to the morning. Simplicity of this moment. Quiet breath breathing words into being. Between the words, silence.

A dance of form and the formless, words and the wordless. All that wishes to be said, spoken. Through the words. Through the silence.

Way beyond the personal, not ‘mine’ at all. Yet I am here, touched and shaped, unravelled and undone.

Offering myself to the words and the silence. Some days they are offered here to you.

Quiet BLESSINGS began on Substack to honour this moment of a New Dawn, a time calling us to remember the ultimate truth and sacredness of our being. Each Blessing was offered to serve that.

Now all 50 Quiet BLESSINGS have been gathered together in an eBook. You are very welcome to download it and share it wherever feels good to you.

Not a tree, not a bird, not a flower, not a bee.

Not the sun, the moon, or the stars.

Every cell of every being alight with truth, alight with Love.

The harmony of One. Many notes, One song.

A song cascading from the heavens into myriad forms.

Yet there is no other but One.

In the stillness I am here. Masks, roles, distractions, deceptions… all fall away. There is no place to hide.

Only breath breathing me, here in the stillness, as the stillness, being breath.

And the source of breath whispering my name, claiming me as her own, for the name is Love.

Love, infinite and eternal, wise and true.

On my knees remembering. On my knees surrendering. Is it possible to be this? Live as this? Love as this?

The answer comes in the stillness. No other choice. Truth cannot be undone.

Pure Love. Taking form for now. Dancing as matter, as sunlight, as laughter, as grace. A song of Love for sure. Here on this Earth.

In the stillness, much revealed.

This is the final Quiet BLESSING for now. Soon there will be an eBook with all 50 BLESSINGS for a New Dawn.

To support us further during this intense period of human and planetary transformation, I am hosting an online weekend retreat for women, a devotional space for deeper alignment: Attune to your inner wisdom 26th - 28th June.

When everything else falls away and you stand naked in the truth, your eyes may only perceive wonder.

Gazing upwards. Stars, moon, planets and the vast dark spaces of Love enfolding all. Skies reaching to forever. Sun bright swallows, damselflies, bumblebees on the wing.

Gazing downwards. Vibrant blades of grass glistening after rain. Rose petals, pink, white, yellow, velvet touch falling at your feet. Ants, worms, beetles and creatures of the soil blessing this moment. Wild gold of the dandelion meeting soft blues of the forget-me-not.

Looking around. Light and shadows dancing between the trees. Leaves waving in the breeze. Trunks tall, roots deep. Guardians, majestic guardians of untold purpose.

Looking within. Kaleidoscope of immeasurable beauty. Ever changing grace. Sacred rivers, plains and glory. Secret gardens. Thresholds of new potentials. Each cell a beacon of light transmitting codes of even greater wonder.

And looking some more. Looking into the subtle realms of mystery, where angels dwell and fairies and maybe unicorns.

Looking with eyes of wonder for magic is everywhere.

I wonder what your eyes and being are revelling in today. May you find joy and peace.

This is the penultimate Quiet BLESSING for now. After number 50 is posted there will be an eBook available soon with all 50 BLESSINGS for a New Dawn.

To support us further during this intense period of human and planetary transformation, an online retreat for women is offered next weekend, a devotional space for deeper alignment: Attune to your inner wisdom 26th - 28th June.

I am here to listen. I am listening to the vast ineffable silence. Simultaneously I am listening as the silence. Silence listening to this moment.

Silence and I, ultimately no separation. The deep quiet within. The deep quiet all around. Silence out of which all creation arises. Silence into which all dissolves. Silence and I, one eternal knowing.

Baking bread. Gathering roses. Picking plums.

Chopping vegetables. Planting lettuces. Collecting firewood.

Bare feet on the grass. Wind in the trees. Sunlight on water.

Birdsong. Children playing. Bees humming.

A lover’s touch. Dancing. Eating ice cream.

Smiling. Resting. Breathing.

Small moments in the day anchoring me in my body, anchoring me here, my place on this Earth. The sacred ordinary. Ultimately not ordinary at all.

Spirit, Love, the Divine (whatever you wish to name the nameless) gets to experience all the above and more, as me, as you…

How absolutely beyond ordinary is that! On my knees in awe and wonder. Totally in love with the sacred ordinary.
