We build spirit dams, and because of that, we become dry, tame, disjointed, and we do not feel whole. We compartmentalize the spiritual nature of our lives, squashing it into one specific corner, rather than allowing it to course the waters of our whole lives, as it naturally does. Indeed, we weave into these sacred moments when we allow ourselves to drop into this deep space of ceremony, once again engaging with the magic of life and soaking up the profundity we crave so much.īut then we weave out of these sacred moments when we mistakenly believe that all of life could ever be anything other than a procession of sacred moments, an inherently divine ceremony. No matter what sort of ceremony we find ourselves in, once we are there, we sense we’re in the midst of some sort of tangible meaningfulness and at the feet of a mysterious invitation, and for that, our presence heightens, our hearts begin to open, and we’re more likely to recognize our role in creating our lives.

Between our very own births and deaths, we celebrate rites of passage, we lose loved ones, and perhaps we get married, birth our children, engage in personal rituals, attend support circles, or sit in spiritual ceremonies. We weave in and out of ceremony throughout our entire lives.
