indwelling

a poem, a ponder, and a podcast

brass prayer bells I collected in Thailand in 2011

The mountains worked on me for the past three years, worked on me, in me, until we remembered we are each other. Does the wisdom and energy of the mountain call to you? It’s a worthy adventure!

You are invited to read this poem slowly and aloud. Feel, sense, hear, taste; meet whatever is in these words for you.

indwelling

I am the mountain
built upon narrows 
and hollows,
     stories compressed
in time, 
dense in their gravity, 
  restless memories grooved 
in crystal and bone cavities.
I am mountain.
Flood the hollows, 
flood them, and wash
 this grief, this 
       loneliness away.
Ring, oh ring the bells of being, 
       let the hollows sound
  with the good, good breath 
       of life ongoing.

What’s Rising

Now that I’ve returned to Tennessee from the long trip to Portugal and Spain, some circuits are completed in me.

Two months ago, I decided to retire certain aspects of the work I’ve been doing. It left this deep question of “now what?” I walked and backpacked for six weeks with the empty sensations, the hollow, lost-at-sea feeling. Was I floundering or resting?

I found it exciting to be in this unsettled state, feeling pure potentiality with no other direction than to be in the center of the center and stay out of the drift.

As I get ready to publish This Wild Arising, which feels so joyful, there is a stirring to use my voice again. I’ve been making music, singing, and reading aloud. One of the things I genuinely enjoy is podcasting. Since November, I’ve been quieter so I could go deeper into the ways of multidimensional intuition, psychic expansion, and conscious creation. There were only a few small bursts of energy for public conversations. The bell had to ring for a moment, but there wasn’t any sustain.

Over the last week, the winds blew in a message that made me grin from ear to ear (and a lively, cheeky grin at that!) When I sat in the center of the center and opened to the highest, most natural thing for me, there came a fresh arising of Pure Light Project podcast. Earlier this year, I ceremonially closed PLP and had no notion it would ever come back around. Sometimes we need to close out old energetics so the new can rise. What’s for you won’t miss you.

This return surprised me—and I always say, let the Universe surprise you!

Heart Coherence - being ready for what’s for you

And I’m glowing within its field. Excited to begin anew and see what comes for all of us.

What’s surprising you today or recently? I’d love to hear about it. Leave a comment or write to me privately by replying to this email.

I’m available for private sessions as a guide and facilitator for

If this calls to you, let’s connect to explore what you’re looking for and if there’s harmony.

In harmony and love from the center of the center,

Andrea Mai
