The Findhorn Foundation annual Festival of Sacred Dance,
Music and Song began today, and I am here! Today was registration day;
gathering people together, forming an intention for the weekend, helping people
find their way around The Park..
There was some dancing, of course, and some singing-a small sample
of what was to come. But there was also attuning, brining ourselves to be
present in the moment, to arrive at the foundation, to feel ourselves in our
bodies-feet on the floor, head reaching to the sky, feeling the hands of our
fellow dancers in the circle.
We chose an angel, a messenger, an energy or a quality to be
with us as we spend this week together. “Enthusiasm” How perfect. Over a hundred dancers, singers and musicians
from all over the world, gathered with intention to celebrate life through
dance, music and song.
In our smaller groups, we chose individual angels for our
week here, after meditating on what brought us to Findhorn, and what deeper
meaning there might be to our being drawn to the north of Scotland this rainy
summer.
And a small voice inside me called three times, “Let me out!
Let me out! Let me out!” And I thought, “Who is wanting out? Someone is wanting
out to play.” And then I chose the Angel “Honesty”. How perfect. A wonderful
companion to “Truth”, who came to dance with me at Newbold House last weekend.
This walkabout summer
is all about meeting the real Tracy,
letting her come forth to be who she is all by herself. I suspect there are
many answers to the question, “Who is Tracy?”
And for a moment in that circle of sharing, I KNEW THE
ANSWER! I understood that all I had to do was look in the mirror. Gaze onto my own eyes. I had a vision of my
life going forward- engaging with open, loving people, spending my days in love
with the world. I thought, “I can go home now, this is what I was seeking.”
Just a glimpse, and then it was gone. Mirror, Mirror, on the
wall….
