In this mini-episode of Soul Led Creative Women, Sam Horton reads an original poem taken from a personal reflective creative moment of her every day life.

This one is titled "North Star"

And asks the question:
When was the last time you felt guided by something deeper than logic, a quiet pull, a sense of “this is right”?

What does your North Star feel like to you? Is it a vision, a value, a feeling, a whisper?

In what ways might you create more space to listen for it, and trust it?

Let this be your reminder: you don’t need to force the path. Just keep turning toward the light that’s already within you.

Sam says: Your North Star isn’t outside of you. It’s not found in striving or perfection. It’s the radiant whisper within, a feeling of deep alignment, of soul recognition. Often ignored, sometimes outshone, but never led astray, and when you finally turn toward it, you’ll find it lighting up your way

Take care,
Sam x

Ep 67: Poetry Minisode - North Star

[00:00:00] Hey, Sam here. This is a bonus mini episode featuring one of my substack poems. this episode is only a few minutes long, but I hope it brightens your day in some way. There's a quiet presence within each of us. A guiding light that doesn't shower or demand, but waits patiently through all the noise detours and dark nights of wandering. It flickers with unwavering devotion. This poem is an ode to that inner knowing. The part of you that always knows the way, even when your outer world is clouded, difficult and overwhelming.

Your North star isn't outside of you. It's not found in striving or perfection. It's the radiant whisper within a feeling of deep alignment of soul recognition, often ignored, sometimes out shown, but never led astray. And when you finally turn toward it, [00:01:00] you find it lighting up your way. As you listen to this poem, I invite you to reflect when was the last time you felt guided by something deeper than logic?

A quiet pull, a sense of this feels right, and what does your North star feel like to you? Is it a vision, a value, a feeling, or a whisper spa? In what ways might you create more space to listen for it and trust it? Let this be your reminder. You don't need to force the path.

Just keep turning toward the light that's already within you. Now for the poem, enjoy

North Star Beyond the murky veil, through the solar silence, you flicker with timeless patience waiting to be noticed. Flirting with quiet grace, you hold your glow in a sacred place. [00:02:00] The stargazers will spot you in time, although it may take a lifetime of wandering endlessly in the dark, dancing around your spark, moving closer and then further away.

Magnetic rhythm gone astray.

The soul seekers will hold you in their heart and honor your glow like a guiding chart. They will walk towards you in a steady stream with trembling steps and fractured dreams through every storm you help them transcend for. They know you are a friend 

 And when at last, they learn to bask in your light, to recognize the beacon. Only the soul can cite. They'll see you not as distant or far, but as you've always been their quiet, [00:03:00] constant guiding North star. Thanks for listening to the end.
