12 – Apprenticing to the SOUTH

Soul Work

  1. Connect to the SOUTH OUTSIDE of you:
  • In your morning prayers to the directions, spend some extra time connecting to the SOUTH. Appreciate the qualities of the SOUTH that stand out to you, qualities that are expressed through the Summer time, the midday, the time of adolescence and young adulthood, etc.
  • Ask and invite the SOUTH to help in whatever way is authentic to you in the moment.
  1. Apprentice to the SOUTH WITHIN you through connecting to the wisdom of your heart and your body. Allow your day (or parts of your day) to be guided by one or more of these questions:
  • What would bring me joy today?
  • What is my heart telling me it wants today?
  • What would feel good to my body right now?
  • What is my body telling me it wants today?
  1. Journal on these questions:
  • What do I like? What do I love?
  • What brings me joy?
  • What feels good to me? To my senses?
  • What opens my heart?
  • What brings me into a state of feeling fully alive?
  • What gets in the way of me aligning with and/or expressing my Wild Self? Where am I compromising? What is the underlying fear or belief driving that compromise?
  • What parts are most frightened or interfering with the process of honoring and expressing my Wild Self?
