Wow, what a wrap-up for the past few days. Profound gratitude for all whom I've had the fortune to travel alongside on this wondrous and festive Avalon Rising journey, and to Open and the Openhand crew as well for hosting and providing such a well-supported platform through which the group could journey and inquire! And to Huzy, Aspasia and Jont, you guys are all shinning stars, such inspiring performances. I'm missing everyone already, but also knowing the feeling sense of it all can always be found within.

And something I've also wanted to share was, even if not everyone will have noticed (or agree) - at the closing performance by the immensely talented Jont, the presence of shadow energies that are likely anchored in altered-state experiences where consciousness hasn't fully infused, certainly spiced things up in the ether! I've known these energies well on my own journey, and the risk here was getting pulled out of body by a immense sense of joy and tranquility, in avoidance of unrealized parts within one's own body-mind field.

Still, to me, joy and ecstatic feelings from music (and all soulful expressions) are to be experienced and expressed to the fullest. Perhaps all it takes is some dedicated inward attention and a heartful of self-love (I'm thinking Christ consciousness and Twin Flame connection here) to stay in the body while doing so, even amongst the density and heaviness in that reality layer. And the shadow energies themselves are also profound reflections to work with - so as to drop identification to the polarities within ourselves.

Any reflection is welcome here. Let's get alchemising folks!
