A Moment in Time
DC - MD - NY | 2022
Musings from Soleil
Wow, this feels like so many lifetimes ago… sweet faces I used to see every day, places I used to visit regularly. I remember this trip fondly because there were a lot of firsts: my first time returning to the east coast after a pandemic move, my first time performing “Honor You” at Busboys & Poets and one of the first times I incorporated soul retrievals into my personal practice. That “restoration in progress” sign always felt like a Divine nod.
I remember driving by my elementary school and seeing my 7 year old self crying outside on the curb. While it wasn’t uncommon for me to see my inner child, there was something distinct about the atmosphere shift. I felt a strong inclination to bring her with me, I told her to get in and took care of her as if I was her new guardian. My angels guided me to a few more places in the city to retrieve other aspects of my soul that had been lost. I didn’t realize this at the time, but somewhere between activating the chimes I kept in my purse and the sacred tongues that left my lips, I received the ancestral medicine of soul retrieval.
Fast forward to the Summer of 2024 and the car accident that rocked my soul out of my vessel. A wake up call to embody my soul’s contract and this time, I was present, prepared, trained. So much of this work feels invisible until it isn’t. And I’m soul grateful for my teachers - seen and unseen - who’ve supported me along the way 💌
