Hello Starhawk, I am so grateful to have rediscovered you and your wisdom. Reading your posts brings back such joyful memories from Witch Camp...so many lifetimes ago.
Still the rituals and the songs are just below the noise. And whenever I see your name in my inbox, my consciousness drops into a magical mode.
Thank you for this beautiful post on how to spiritually attend a protest. It illustrates how to access the power from within. And channel it into power together. And that's what this is all about.
Excellent news, lady. Btw, I had the gift of circling with you and, I think it was with…dang it. I have a brain glitch so I can’t always remember. Fabulous singer. S… maybe MountainSinger? I know she’s crossed the veil. This was at a wimyn’s music fest. Pretty sure it was you. :D
Not saying I personally could get much beyond grounding and projecting energy without years of constant practice, but have a good example of each. Drunk at deserted bus stop directing racist rage at Latina who doesn't realize he's escalating and might hurt her, partly because she can't understand his words. I remembered to ground so could think straight. Moved closer to her, kept my body between her & drunk man, called police--yes, it was warranted--& managed enough Spanish to let her know she wasn't safe. Police came, deescalated drunk, she & I got on same bus & had little chat. (No I'm not brave, just instinct.) On bus trip home from magical training, noticed angry undertone in conversations of pairs & groups all over bus rather than the usual emotional mix. Decided to intervene w/ energy projection after asking myself if I might be being racist; only one other white person, sitting alone, on bus besides me. Answer: possibly yes. Selfishly went ahead: projected multi-colored energy cables from my solar plexus, hooked them into the pair across from me, & pulled them into my already pretty deep meditative state. Pulled myself & them deeper. When opened eyes, saw pair was asleep & noticed whole bus was getting increasingly quiet. Pulled myself up to more alert state, pulled pair with me, & pulled energy cords back in, so pair would be able to get off bus wherever they'd planned. Good thing it wasn't too late; I would have been mad at myself for "overdosing" them because can be a long walk between bus stops. Fully aware calming of pair, & other pairs & groups, could have been coincidence, especially since a few people had started to get off bus. And yet...maybe these examples can help someone.
