moving day


so supposedly we're moving today. I am so present that it somehow doesn't even seem real yet even though I am sitting in a little house of boxes here on the couch typing this...even though Greg is supposedly going to get the u-haul in 10 minutes and then my coffee will be done, kick in and I will power through one more round of packing. Sean's coming at noon and we'll load the truck and kick it on outta here and up to our new home.


last night was then perhaps our last night here? we heard the chimes at midnight .. that was sweet. The town was saying "good-bye, enjoy your new home on the hill...."


Yesterday as we were leaving the house, we drove down the lane a bit and saw a great big snapping turtle. She was amazing - I could have watched her walking around for hours. Her legs were so strong and she moved much faster than I have ever seen a turtle move. Even still, every movement was methodical and melodical. So thought out and precise. Turtle medicine is ancient medicine. She represents a strong tie to the earth and the water and serves as a reminder to move slowly on your life path. She speaks of a sense of purpose and meaning to movement. She says - take it easy, be sure to center home and be mindful of your actions and don't forget the gratitude.


We are to be stewards of the earth with a place to practice. We are moving to our once and future home. The time space continuum is bending and worlds merge, collide, sparks fly, egos die. I am filled with love and gratitude for all that is.



blessings of abundance and joy,

Emily
