127 - Liminality: The Realm of Transformation, Magic & Crazy Making
Liminality is the place of no longer and the not yet. Liminal spaces are where the magic happens. This can also be a place of great discomfort. A place sometimes called, ‘crazy space.” Being in a liminal space can be incredibly uncomfortable for most. Brains crave homeostasis and predictability, and liminal space is everything but this. Death, divorce, loss, illness, the space in between making a decision are considered liminal spaces. This Ayahuasca path that I am on is forcing me to find ways to be in a permanent liminal space. A place between two realms, with one foot in this world and another in the spirit realm. I am having to hold so many paradoxes, that to my human mind if feels very confusing and scares the heck out of me. The shaman must know how to voyage inside herself & the great unknown without getting lost. To then steward others through these spaces. In the liminal space it is easy to feel lost. This is where I find myself at currently, learning to navigate and accept this liminal space. To find center in the groundless ground. One could say that I am losing my mind, but that is exactly what this space calls forth, crazy making. And in this place I am finding is so much power, so much wisdom, so much transformation, so much magic. It is a place where anything is possible.
