returning to the mother's waters
a new moon in cancer love note
I contemplated, and opened, and softened into the energy of this new moon, to see what words wished to dance along the edges of my tongue, and the muscles of my shoulders and flesh of my tummy began to slowly exhale, sighing deeper and deeper into softness.
No words, no thoughts, no visions, no undercurrents, but returning again and again to the experience of floating in the eternal abyss of our mother’s womb.
and as the waters of her womb create an impenetrable cocoon, and soften the rough edges, and sooth the tender spaces of our hearts, we come back to the awareness that we live within the eternal intelligence of all that is — and the endless stream of cosmic wisdom, of higher self whispers, of inner reflections are waving around us, waiting for us to return to our own form of stillness, so we may fully receive what we need to know, hear and integrate within this moment.
It is the stillness of these womb waters, where you may return to softness, where you may exhale through the madness, where you may feel the tension unwind through anxiety and panic and stress, and through your own sense of restlessness — and although it may be uncomfortable and though it may feel uneasy,
Can you hold in your mind, can you hold in your eye, that on the other side of this pain, is the comfort you are seeking? On the other side of this panic, is the love that is awaiting? On the other side of this stress, is the cocoon of your dreams? Can you hold that within your heart as the discomfort arises?
Can you hold in your heart that you are never alone, as you navigate the turbulent currents of your own ocean?
Can you know that you are never alone, as the boat flips and you feel like you are sinking and losing your grip?
Can you know that you are never alone, as you push and kick your legs and pull upon the strands of strength you have left within your body to make it to the surface once again?
Can you know that you are not alone, as you wonder in stress, as you circle in anxiety, about whether you have found yourself within the right current on your forward trajectory?
Under this new moon, may you explore the art of softening within your mind, within your mental imagery, within your heart, within your body, within your responses, your reactions and your imaginings — and may you pray to your mother, may you pray to the infinite loving source of all that is, to show you the path of softness, of ease, of vulnerability, of pleasure, of possibility.
With all my love,
Abbie xx
