What an absolutely mystical and magical flame presence and the timing of which sounds very powerful and meaningful indeed!

I’m so excited for your course and looking forward to delving deep into it all! I do hope to join the live conversations as well. Thank you for this beautiful and abundantly overflowing offering! I can’t wait! xox

Such wonders, Sylvia. Don't think I'll take this course but I wanted to offer my blessings to it. I'm just sad and afraid and crying all the time these days. This recent American election isn't about what it's about on the surface- I believe it's about an old patriarchal fear of losing control, and so a rather patriarchal shadow has been roaring across the world in figures like Putin and Bolsanaro and Orban and Trump and so many guys in Africa with guns. Dangerous men with guns, actually scared boys afraid what will happen if they put down their clubs. And it feels like it's going to get a lot worse before it gets any better. Oh Lord why us why now?

You are the hope. Your work is acting as a light to the world. An ongoing Resurrection. It will feed life. Life will return. And for those folks who think most men love what's happening to the Earth and to women these days, let me speak up for us who would rather be the guardians of the red tent and not the ones destroying it. I don't vote for these overgrown middle school bully boys..... but just like in 8th grade they seem to offer a "poisoned thread" that has appeal.

Your work offers the thread of medicine and healing. God love you. You bring smiles to my many tears.
