I am launching a new part of my Substack… morning invocations! I will say that Marianne Williamson has been my inspo for this. Her morning meditations are so deep and helpful. And I was feeling into the type of invocation I wanted to create for heart-centered, embodied living, non-religious, honoring of the divine feminine and nature. So here ‘tis!
I will send 2-3 times a week to all my list: Monday, Wednesday and Friday. And after three months, I will offer to my paid subscribers, so if you are loving them, feel free to become a paid subscriber sooner! I am excited to tend to this community. I honestly don’t know who the thousands are on Instagram that follow me. But here, I feel like there is space to connect. So please say hello, drop a like or comment, let’s create community and not be strangers.
And now… for today’s invocation:
Today, I remember that my heart is a light in the darkness.
That in the density of the human struggle, that my heart can be a light. It can be a beacon, not only for myself, for my soul, but for those around me.
I can choose to let my heart become dark and dim, full of despair, afraid of the future, or I can choose to let my heart be a light in the darkness.
The darkness being the great unknown, the places that we have yet to tread. The darkness not being something that has to be scary, but something that brings forth uncertainty.
I bring my heart right there in the center of that beautiful void of dark, and I let it be a simple flame. I let it hold the space of possibility, honoring the great void around it.
Instead of living from fear, I live from a lit heart of love. This love treads forward into unknown lands, with faith, with possibility.
I let my heart be a light in the darkness today.
Not fearing treading into the unknown, into the black of night, into the void, but walking there with deep trust that reverberates through my whole body.
With Love,
Alexandra
“I let it hold the space of possibility, honoring the great void around it.” Thank you for this beautiful message that my feared heart needed to hear this morning on my long train commute to work 💗
You blasted my heart with this!
Reading it, using our voice, bringing the breath to the words, enlivens them <3
