The Wheel of Fortune

February 20, 2024

Your life has been one of constant motion! you were spawned in the safe gentle river shallows before swimming downstream to the vast oceans. And now, in your prime after a life of remarkable experiences something is calling you back to the river again, but this time upstream to fulfill the cycle.
The wheel of fortune draws attention to our cycles and tells us to pay attention to them. We may be at the point of ending a cycle or of starting a new one. It also reminds us that sometimes we may think the river is clear, but beware bears! This time you had a lucky escape.
The bear tells us that we need to look ahead and be decisive in our actions. That although we feel we are safe in our group and, we need to pay attention to what is going on around us and how it may affect us. If need be, we must be ready take swift action and move to a calmer section of river to avoid those jaws.
As we get further upstream, we may hit rapids and other dangers. The going gets tough. At times, nigh impossible, and not all of our school may make it. We must remember to look to our lost companions Take the time to grieve and then to learn from them. Their stories can help us get over these white waters. It is also important to look to our community who have travelled so far with us and to help each other. who are we without our chosen family? And so the wheel turns and we shall get to those sacred places, older, scarred and ready for the next great adventure, Our stories are all mingled into a greater tapestry that make up the great web.
