First post, again...

I'm starting another blog, this time on Google, for this simple reason that I like to write about myself. And I think that it does me good to write on a regular basis, even if it is random musings...

So what's been going on? Well, this year so far we have had a baby son (Forrest :oD), moved house, bought a new car, got engaged, Gabriel was made permanent in his job...and more important that any of this, we have both been moving forward with our paths, weaving and winding, growing and sometimes faltering, dreaming more and more surely (as evidenced by our lives!) and generally having a soulful, if occasionally terrifying, time...

Our website is down while we dream its new form...we both feel that it needs to transform to reflect the changes in our lives and the richness of our path. So it will be back, sooner or later, what this space :o)

For the last year and a half we have been coccooned, it has seemed; in some ways isolated from our community and lineage...finding our own ways, testing the teachings, living the myths and magic and ideas. We have had a strong focus on family, not just in terms of our son, but our wider family...coming together and growing more intimate, more real.

At times it has seemed that our spiritual path has been laid aside in the midst of all this, but it has been there, the constant thread, the silent song we've been dancing too...

We have been discovering that life can be a prayer in itself, and that you can find opportunities to walk your talk in all aspects of your life. We have discovered some of the inherent powers within us, and that they have a separate reality from any tools or teachings we have been gifted by our lineage. We have been finding the sacred in the mundane, the essential in the obvious, and the soulful in everyday, normal human life.

It has been a wonderful journey, and I am sure it will continue to be so...till then, Munay x
