Well Keeper Reflections

Public·165 Well Keepers

Sitting in the garden, the warm September sun accompanied by a cool breeze, I closed my eyes and listened. I heard, “You are well…” I "Yes, I am," I think. Nestled in amongst the flowers as bees collect the last remnants of pollen, I feel calm, content, and peaceful.


Then I hear the phrase once more. “You are well...” but this time I feel a deeper resonance. Instead of approaching the well — to listen, to seek comfort, healing or wisdom, I understood. I am the well.

 

This was not what I expected to learn during my keeper time. It is a full and busy day for me, my youngest son’s 46th birthday. There will be six of us at the table — my sister, my two sons, and a local shaman who is quickly becoming a friend. It is a pivotal time for both of my sons as they navigate their gut-wrenching, soul-making dark night of different mid-life crises. As their 74-year-old mother, my heart is stretched as I accompany them through this time.

 

When I set this date for my well-tending day earlier in the year, I did not anticipate just how significant this time would be. Last night was a glorious full moon with a partial lunar eclipse. As we approach the autumn equinox, this simple message, "I am well...” is a poignant counterpoint to the massive upheavals throughout the world. Along with gratitude for that affirmative twist, I feel my personal responsibility to embody the Well.


Finally, as a flower essence producer, I muscle-tested for the essence that specifically met this moment. Another resonating affirmation, Fritillaria is about 'establishing sanctuary', a perfect reflection on what we have all been doing this past year.


"Fritillaria supports the creation of sacred space — an altar-space, a room of one’s own, or time apart for meditative renewal. A ringing reminder of our pure core, Fritillaria sounds within the sanctuary of our body-soul as our personal reference for truth, aligning our focused will with the Divine."

Indeed you are the well. Yes. Makes me wonder if there is now the need and possibility for a "collective" well. Not really the right word but I am reaching for something.
