Advice from the Stag King

Advice from the Stag King

Time to drop in
And know what you know.
Seed what you’ll sow
Delight in the way
you can sense things.
Cloak yourself
in the wild potential
of this Dark Night Air.

There is a bell
Rung once,
A beautiful tone
in the vast distant silence
that knows you by heart.

Close your eyes,
The way is in you.
Follow the tracks
through the snow-packed wood,
Notice everything
all the way home.

“With the wild nature as ally and teacher we see not through two eyes but through the many eyes of intuition. With intuition we are like the starry night, we gaze at the world through a thousand eyes. The wild woman is fluent in the language of dreams, images, passion, and poetry."

~Dr. Clarissa Pinkola Estes
