I was between sleep and consciousness this morning⦠I saw a little white acorn, so I thought I was going into a new dream. Then I heard a voice so calming, yet powerful and commanding telling me to ājust listen to meāā¦
I walked over to the acorn, just a white acorn so I stepped over it and kept walking.
I came up on a white logā¦still nothing, so I stepped over that too and kept moving forward.
I came up on a little clearing, and I didnāt see any at all in the field but a tall white ladder. I had the feeling I was supposed to climb it since Iād simply āsteppedā over everything else. So I didā¦. Still nothing.
Iām starting to get a little, annoyed I guess is the word. In my conscience mind, telling myself to just get out of bed now because I have a long busy day ahead of me. But something catches me.
I walk over and see a huge white bolder. I said out loud āI canāt just step over this, and I canāt climb it! What am I supposed to do?ā ā¦
The bolder transformed into a huge white elephant and it just stared down at me and with the same voice I hear initially, I heard it say into my mind ādo you understand now?ā⦠but I didnāt.
A deep laugh that sounded like thunder and joy simultaneously⦠then the voice said āmy daughter, you are so stubborn!ā ā¦I immediately knew what, or better⦠who was in front of me.
āYou move so fast, and jump over obstacles easily. But when the task seems too great, you stop and question. You try to figure out how to do it alone. I wanted to SHOW you, that when the obstacle is the biggest, that is when I am with you the most. Let me carry youā.
Then I understood completely š„¹ My Baba Obatalaā¦
I am self aware enough to know when my plate is full, and my days are longā¦my patience wears thin š«£š¬ and my š„ starts to spark. I guess thatās why I always thought before I initiated that Shangó was my father. Even though I have a pact with Shango, and heās always with me⦠Orisha knew, Obatala was who I NEEDED. He calms my spirit and fills me with a peace that I have no words for.
December is packed with clients, level 2 of the Academy, classes at the shop, and life⦠but I know who carries me šš½š¤
Yesterday I was worried⦠today I am READYšš½
