Conversing with Earth & Nature. An invitation to explore places and ways of Belonging. To yourself, to Earth, to the Earth Community.

Dear You,

I invite you to read through these questions and just take notice: is there one or are there a few, that touch a string within you. They might sound big. And I guess that’s what we are here for. Especially during these times of change. To enter the greater conversation. To reconnect with the deepest places within. To embody more and more fully our own true way of being and belonging. Which ripples forth through this web of life. Of course one day is way too little to address all of these questions - and … it can be a start of something or a deepening of your journey. Just tune in and listen to the response inside your heart & body …

Where do I belong?
What belongs to me - truly?
How do I belong to Earth and Nature?
What is my unique way of being part of the fabric of life?

What’s my place within myself and the world?
What unique gift do I bring to the world - being myself?
And what is that or could that mean … “being myself”?
Who am I, when I’m in the knowing that I am just right, as I am (with no need to prove anything to anyone, not even myself)?

Who am I beyond my ideas and concepts - of myself and Other?
Who am I without even asking those questions?
What is my place of true belonging (to myself and to the world)?

Which larger conversation am I living?
Which larger conversation is being lived through me and can only be lived through me?
What are the questions that whisper or burn within my heart?
What are the answers that wants to be lived?

Am I in a place where i know … that I’m about to shed another skin … and do I want to reconnect to one very true place of support and belonging to be able to do that = Nature (in its many forms)?

Do I want to be more in sync with the cycles of life - within myself and as part of the big evolution?
How can I recognize and listen to that, which sings me into existence?
What wants to be experienced through me?

Which vision wants to be lived through me?
What is the deepest truth within my heart?
How can I be a part of world that is not based on harm - but on love?

Who am I - what am I made of?
And who am I beyond all these questions?

Probably there are as many questions as there are people. And still at one point in life - which might be where you are at the moment - they seem all to circle around the questions of “who am I - and why am I (really) here and what am I here to be and do?”. The longing to remember ones „original place“. This place of belonging. To yourself, to Earth, to love and to the big Earth community - human and non human. To reconnect with that, which has always been here. Within. The uniqueness of your place and the interconnectedness with the whole web of life, that we are all part of.

At certain points in our lives these kinds of questions are calling us more urgently. As if they were pointing to - or coming from - a door or a threshold that really wants to be crossed, that needs to be crossed. A skin that needs to be shed. Something is calling … something is calling … to grow, to sink more deeply, to expand more widely to … “do the only thing you could do - determined to save the only life that you could save.” as Mary Oliver writes in her poem “The Journey”.

The ancient practice and ceremony of a Vision Quest is a place, a door, where you will cross the threshold into this space where you can really dance, wrestle, pray, live these questions - and make yourself available to life and the mystery. To let your deepest questions work on you. Where you can enter your most intimate conversation with Life. With your place of belonging. Undistractedly. In the lineage I trained in (Stalking Wolf) the Vision Quest Ceremony’s heart is a 4 day and 4 night Solo wilderness fast. Staying in a 3 meter circle.

This day of being Solo in Nature, is like a little sister or brother of Vision Quest. We won’t try to turn this day into something which it isn’t. We will honor the fact, that we’ve got: one day. And during this one day, there will be a time to be - just like on a Vision Quest - in solitude, fasting in nature. You can dive as deeply as you wish and can. You will make it your own conversation and experience.

We’ll have time to come together, to share and to get prepared on several levels beforehand. Then you’ll cross a threshold and will go alone. You’ll be called back after 4 hours in solitude - and there will be time for journaling and sharing in the circle. I’ll be there to protect the space and will support you with the process before and after your solo time.

We’ll keep it simple. That’s part of the power of it.
