Greetings, my friends! I hope you’re well. I’ve been more quiet in recent months where posting here at Sophia’s Children is concerned, but I’ve not been absent. Far from it.
Life’s had me sharing gifts and presence a bit more fully out in the local community, face-to-face and with (mostly) women navigating challenge-crossroads and/or spiritual questing; as well as delving deeply into research for a gestating body of work (I’ve hinted in a few Sophia’s Children posts, but will share more when the right-time arrives!).

Plus, in astro-language, it’s a 12th House Sun- (and Mercury, and Venus) transit time, which always seems to re-task at least one of my main “satellite dishes” towards deep-space listening, even if my other facets are very much attuned, present, and busy in the day to day!
Here’s something to share with you in the meanwhile…
My kindred-spirit friend, Leeby of Shamagaia, shared a reflection on the Dark Night of the Soul as a call to awakening as well as a pathway of service in our times.
Our forebears traveled these pathways in their times to pass the wisdom through the generations, so that we might piece together the map that guides us through, too.
Leeby’s post on Shamagaia begins:
“Remember yourself,” and that’s really what it is.

Leeby shares a perspective on how the true Dark Night and/or Underworld experiences — often symbolized by Pluto (and Pals) transits in astro-language — are aimed at precisely that: Remembering, and revealing gifts and gnosis-insights to share and pass along in your own way.
Sounds powerful, and it is, nor is it the easiest or most ego-stroking journey. (Amusing, right?)
Whether through the experience itself, or what it unlocks and activates within us; by becoming Healers of the Ancestral Tree, and/or sharers of whatever wisdom-gems we learn along the way to provide signposts to our fellow travelers, there are gifts to be gained and shared.
And that journey continues to unfold.
Read Leeby’s Dark Night: Call to Awakening at Shamagaia.
Hoping you’re all very well!
Big Love,
Jamie

Thank you Jamie. Sometimes we need to step away and do other things. It sounds like you have been in service of others. Which is much more rewarding.
I think many are now stepping into our missions as the new energy shifts gears. April was intense and at last I feel a cloud has lifted.
I look forward to reading more of your friends thoughts.
Love and light to you Jamie. 🤗🙏💚

Greetings, Sue! Many thanks for stopping by. Yes, the last month or so has seemed particularly intense, or a unique alchemy of potent energy streams weaving in the shared field. I’m glad you’re sensing and feeling that a cloud has lifted and something has shifted.
It will be interesting to see, sense, feel, hear the “mission shifts” to reflect the energy shifts, as Life calls us into different or deepened or however “tweaked” expressions and pathways!
True enough, for me, the ratio of online and tech-facilitated interactions and in-person interactions has shifted a bit, so it’s just a matter of gaining fluency in that new balance so that each part of the sacred garden is tended. 🙂
How about for you?
I’m hoping that you’re well, despite the intensity.
Blessings and plentiful love, Sue.
Jamie 🤗🙏💚

Greetings Jamie…
It seems a great many people have been busy going within and clearing out unwanted garbage as of late. As we well know that in itself can get quite painful. But it is so very necessary in order to grow and move ahead. Quiet time is needed to restore the weary soul. We seem to rarely give ourselves the time to just BE…Glad you are riding the storm and feeling well…Thanks for the link to your friend’s post….Happy spring to you 🙂 Peaceful love….VK <3

Happy Spring to you as well, VK, and for sharing your own sense of these inward callings and clear-out, wake-up passages. You’ve summed up some of the key reminders well. Thanks as always for stopping by, and for your own work via One World Metamorphosis. Be well, and plentiful peace and grace and wellbeing to and through you! xo J

Great post. With Pluto stationing on my I.C. I have felt drawn to go deep inside my personal underworld, seeing it as a time of remembering gifts and finding a pathway to service makes sense. Thank you.

You’re welcome, Suzanne. Yes, you’ve described it well … feeling drawn to go deep inside to remember and reclaim. May it be a rich and grace-full passage. 🙂

Thank you. 😊

Hi Jamie,
I was drawn to read this post and it sparked something within , a validation of my need to be patient and attentive to my inner flames, 12th house style. I have Saturn and Pluto transiting my Twelth now, both moving retro, digging deeper into my psyche.
love to you! Linda
PS, diggin the soulful imagery on this post and your new blog look 🙂
May 6, 2019 at 10:33 pm
Oh, yes, Linda. Those 12th House transits (plus the Mars-square-Neptune energetic) delves deeply (or turns the satellite dish towards deep-space listening, as I’ve described my own 12th House transit experience! I’ve got a posse moving transiting through the 12th natal now, too, so understand what you’re saying. 🙂 Pluto … yes, that’d go to the roots. 🙂
Thanks so much for the kind words about the new look. Every once in awhile it’s nice to refresh visually, as you know well as a curator of beautiful imagery on Litebeing! Blessings & love to you, Linda.
