Grandmother Spider wants you to listen to the threads of your longing, to place yourself where you belong, and to claim your space. It is time to leave your own webs, explore your surroundings, and to make your mark.
This is a time to come out from the shadows and be seen in your brightest light. Do not wait for permission or for a map.
Now is the time to be exactly who you are, and claim where you belong. Come out from hiding and claim the space that is your birthright.
What parts of you are hiding in the shadows?
How can you give those parts more space to be seen?
How will you Inhabit the space that you occupy?
Claim Your Space
Grandmother Spider is helping you to Weave your own magic.
How will your magic become manifest?
Spinning a web is already an amazing act of creation, but when the morning dew interacts with that web, the magic of its creation can be seen and amplified.
Whatever magic that resides in you, is waiting to come out. Magic happens, as an interaction between your direct engagement with nature, with the universe, and with all the forces that exist beyond your control. Magic is created when you join your own engagement, and your wonderment with something larger than you.
Magic is everywhere, but to create it, is to engage with the beauty that is already in abundance, with its wonder and mystery. Magic is the wildly unforeseen serendipity, the sum that is greater than all its parts.
Create Magic
Grandmother Spider has asked us to gather and sit by the fire.
Is it the fire of letting go?
…or the fire of comfort?
Whatever the reason, the warmth that draws us together, is allowing us to hear one another, and to see in the dark.
Grandmother Spider is reminding us of the importance of storytelling, …be it for the remembering, …or the warming that lightens the dark with laughter.
Bring the threads of your past webs (both broken and whole), to the fire. Some moments are enriched when shared.
How will you gather round?
Who can you share with?
What old webs need acknowledging and transformation at the fire today?
Gather Round
Grandmother Spider asked us, “what are you grateful for?"
Are you giving thanks for what you have, for where you came from, and for what could become?
All possibilities reside in every moment.
Grandmother Spider is asking you to give thanks and to practice gratitude for all that has brought you to this moment, as well as for all that still resides in possibility.
Some aspects of gratitude are easy, such as recognizing what you have - shelter, food, and love.
Can you also give thanks for the less obvious gifts: the challenges and for the dreams that are waiting to be realized?
Give Thanks
Grandmother Spider is inviting you deep down. She is inviting you to follow the threads of your own web, towards their center.
Can you take the time to sit with what is below the surface?
Can you wait for what may be hidden, to be revealed?
She weaves her webs in so many shapes, some more apparent than others. This web is now leading your attention down towards the center of the Earth.
What lies at its core?
What treasures will be found in this deep hidden space?
Go Deep
Grandmother Spider is a weaver. And as such, she is taking all that life has given her, to create anew in this new moment.
Grandmother Spider has asked that you allow the old broken webs to just ‘Be’, and move onto new creations.
Just as the seasons change and winter comes, so does spring with its renewal.
As you find the structures of your life are breaking down, Grandmother Spider asks you to see what new webs you are able to build. Can you rebuild stronger?
Rebuild And Renew
Seemingly separate, the roots of the redwoods create a vast territory of connections underground…
Above ground, Grandmother Spider’s webs can be seen and felt, …reaching across thin air, …connecting one place to another.
Grandmother Spider (the web builder), asks us to form connections. Sometimes these connections are invisible, until the light shines just so.
She is asking us to reach across open spaces, and to feel our way through the unseen and through spaces underground.
How do you build connections?
How do you maintain those connections? How do you feel a part of this larger context that you are living in?
What aspects of your life need connecting?
Stay Connected
In active pause, Grandmother Spider sits in between here and there. We cannot tell if she is on her way down or up. Her suspension is a mysterious moment, full of potential. Any and all directions from here are possible.
Grandmother Spider is asking you to suspend yourself and your momentum. She asks you to pause in this potent place to recognize all the possibilities… She is asking you to be aware and open to the realities that surround you before acting.
Like a sudden wind, the potential of the world around you may cause your direction to change.
How have you been moving?
What different possibilities arise if you suspend?
