It came through as what I call a zipper song so the words heart & sun were interchangeable in each verse spirit told me. I admit when the words & melody came I felt a bit strange singing them again & again for this dear lady. However the mantra wanted to be birthed so I sang, while setting the intention of birthing a sunrise into the heart & into her design. I listened to my inner voice & presented the design & song for her to use soon after. Not a week or so went by & one of my first & most supportive early clients asked if I could design a mala for her husbands birthday. I heard myself echlo a resolute no & then remembered my recent promise to say yes. I believe this is the universes way of strenthening our tool box--saying yes to what spirit has brought into out awareness. I told her it was a cautious yes & I'd try my best & get back with her. I designed her a traditional mala with 108 beads with a resting bead in 3 places. It was jet & howlite, black & white & represented the 3 phases of the moon & the little dipper. I called it 3 moons mala & finished it off with ice blue wirewrapping in SB'S customary signature. Little did I know the universe had set a course for Sacred Bracelets in which all I'd have to do was nod & listen closely & birth with my fingers the designs in their heart's.
Within a few weeks I recieved a call from another intuitive coaching client who loved my work but didn't really wear jewelry. She asked had I heard of a mala & would I consider making her one to work with her unique energies. A mala is a 108 bead design that people pray with while holding each bead & setting intention & opening their heart. If I had said no to the song that presented itself while designing The sun inside design I would not have understood the opportunity I was being given. I would not have done what Joseph Cambell refers to as accepting the call or following your bliss. from a place of spirit. This requires a deeper intuitive listening or what Yalom calls listening with the 3rd ear. This type of intuitive listening means you must set aside your own definition of self & step instead into the great unknown-the I am of the universes journey for you.... Enjoy the malas! They are from my heart to yours...
