On A Thread

Every person is linked to the Goddess by an invisible thread, a thread which is unique for each one of us, a thread which can easily slip from our grasp and , search for it as we may, elude us. It is only when we have lost our thread that life seems purposeless, lacking in significance and meaning.

Still on our threads but beyond reach are angels which at supreme moments we feel we are able to contact. They are the intermediaries between us and God. To be on our thread is to be in touch with the Self, and the angels and other figures to which are the archetypal images of the Self. So long as we are in touch with this thread it is as though our individual Guardian Angel is hovering above us guiding our steps. The moment we lose our thread, we feel lost, purposeless and unsafe, disconnected from the magic that envelops us.

Being on one's thread means knowing what one knows, having an ability to stand firm on one's own inner truth. It is when we are in our vital thread that life happens around us in a way that befits our individual destiny, for we have not interfered. Life happens more fully around those who are on their thread. Women on their thread do not cause, but allow. A woman on her thread walks in the middle of the road, neither held back by the past nor hurrying toward the future, neither lured to the right nor to the left, but allowing the past and the future. Life blossoms all around her.
