Circles in the Dark
“Soul companionship gives safety and light to a cave full of friends.” ~Rumi
The practice of sitting in circle and holding Council offers the opportunity to bear witness to our darkest emotions and deepest wounds in the safety and solace of intentional community. Through simple ritual we invite the wisdom of silence and Spirit to guide our way through the dark. Through the giving and receiving of our stories we come to see our interconnection, shared humanity, and the impersonal nature of suffering. We cultivate reverence for the strength and beauty of our fragile lives even amidst great pain. Difficult emotions and mind states such as loneliness, isolation, and despair are often calmed when given voice and received in compassionate community. Healing community teaches that although we cannot change the past, we can choose the future. Together we can create an ending to the story that will deepen our compassion and empower our lives.
