Let there be spaces in your togetherness, and let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another but make not a bond of love; Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
Fill each other’s cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf.
Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping, for only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
And stand together, yet not too near together, for the pillars of the temple stand apart, and the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.
We are overjoyed to share our news… A galaxy of our joined highest frequencies has been forming for a few Moons now into a consciousness of their own and will be joining us Earth-side in the human form around February 2021!

I hope you find some resonance and inspiration along th โฃโฃโฃโฃ ๐ค My name is ๐๐ซ๐ข๐ง๐๐ and I am 33 years old. I was born in the small country of Albania and lived in Greece during my teen years. I moved across the globe to U.S. at 18 to attend university, and have explored all over the country since then. I currently call home the colorful and hip city of Austin Texas. I love to travel quite often.โฃโฃ โฃโฃโฃโฃ ๐ฎ I love connecting with open minded people, getting past small talk and discussing existential topics and matters of the heart and soul. I can listen to Alan Watts and Ram Dass lectures for hours! โฃโฃโฃโฃ โฃโฃโฃโฃ ๐ I also love exploring indigenous cultures and learning from ancient wisdom. Iโve done quite a bit of world travel and each time I get enchanted by the beauty of this planet and the hearts of the people on it.โฃโฃโฃโฃ โฃโฃโฃโฃ ๐ง๐ปโโ๏ธ Yoga and Meditation tune me straight into my heart, and have helped me heal tremendously in my body and mind. Iโve made it my current life mission to share the wisdom and healing potential of Yoga as a holistic approach with those who are ready to heal, grow, and connect to greater levels of awareness.โฃโฃโฃโฃ โฃโฃโฃโฃ ๐ I love designing my lifestyle in a way that encourages playfulness and lightheartedness to guide the way of the heart. I also love expressing myself through art in various mediums – dancing, flow arts, music, photography, painting, writing, etc. When I forget how important play is, I look at nature and children and remember again.โฃโฃ โฃโฃ ๐ I feel most at home when Iโm immersed in Nature: forest, ocean, mountains, etc. Iโm a lifetime treehugger and animal lover. I can connect quickly with animals and tune in into their instinctual wisdom. I find a teacher in every creature as well as circumstance. โฃโฃโฃโฃ โฃโฃโฃ ๐๐ผ If you have read so far, thank you! I honor you for being here in this human experience.
When this world seems like itโs falling apart, โฃโฃ when you donโt really know what to believe, โฃโฃ when the hero and villain alternate like an unpredictable chess game, โฃโฃ โฃโฃ There is one thing Iโm unshakably confident in: โฃโฃ โฃโฃ Weโve never needed to open our hearts more, โฃโฃ than when we feel like closing them to protect ourselves…โฃโฃ โฃโฃ I know it hurts, Iโve been hurt and Iโve hurt others, too…โฃ โฃ We all have, knowingly or not. Some seemingly more than others. Thatโs beyond my human understanding to bestow meaning or justice upon. โฃ โฃ And with all the pains and sorrows, โฃ with all the fear and uncertainty,โฃ with all the hope seemingly gone…โฃ โฃ I choose to crack my heart a little more open!โฃ โฃ One of the biggest lessons this year has beenโฃโฃ trusting in the darkness of the unknown…โฃโฃ Like an unborn child in the motherโs womb, โฃ floating in a sea of darkness, being, trusting, โฃ that same darkness nourishes them until birth….โฃ โฃ I choose to trust and I choose hope!โฃ โฃ Remembering love, amidst all the hatred and fear…โฃโฃ Choosing hope, during that darkest night of the soul…โฃโฃ โฃโฃ Coming back to Love, over and over again!โฃโฃ Countless times, again and again.โฃ โฃ ~ ~ ~ โฃ โฃ Here is my favorite heart-opening prayer, by Beautiful Choir:โฃโฃ โฃโฃ โจ๐โจโฃโฃ I Believe Only in Love.โฃโฃ Everything else on earth lacks meaning.โฃโฃ Even if this world is leveled to the ground;โฃโฃ Even if the seas dry up and the mountains wear down;โฃโฃ
