The Power of Sound
through Storytelling
We are not reviewing a “Psychic Energy Assessment” as we did in Wahya Circle, nor are we Working a Natural Sound Spell as Yona Circle. But, we ARE going to work with ‘sound’ today. You have a week to find the time to do this very healing and empowering exercise of “story-telling”. Telling a story to another is very powerful as a Practitioner of Healing Magick and Medicine. It not only re-enforces what you learned from the Experience, but also reminds us “why” we continue to share it. By doing so, it can also imbue the energy of sound to aid others in their discovery of Knowledge and Wisdom.
In our indigenous traditions and cultures, “Winter” was understood to be the ideal time for sitting around inside by a fire with family or friends and telling stories. After all, you almost had a “captive audience”. But, Reverend Richoz feels that anytime can be a good time for storytelling. It is felt that Wisdom should be passed down continually, not just when convenient or “there is nothing else to do”. Many teachings have been lost because we have stopped this art of passing down Knowledge in the Oral Tradition, or the ‘movement of Air’…. sound. Aligning yourself with Air and continuing the tradition of Wisdom, Logic, Thought, is priceless for all of us around the world.
With that said, there are some potent stories in the familial histories of us all. There are many things that have been shared with us orally throughout life, both Magick and Mundane. The most common way we do this now is to attempt it through “education” and telling stories of times past there. But, that is usually with bias, without feeling — or ‘too much’ feeling, and it does not always benefit the one who receives the information. The best place we learn valuable Knowledge is at “home”, whatever that is to you.
It is time to breathe life back into the lessons we have learned.
Take a few moments with Self and explore this. Think if you have ever sat with an Elder and listened. What did they say? No matter how you do it, you are going to in turn share what Wisdom is revealed to you from that exchange in Air, voice, Thought, … in a Submission. This is not the only place to consider. This Knowledge may have even come to you in a Dream. Or, you can ask for it to if you are unable to sit with another, or recollect a time of sitting with others for this exercise.
What are your favorite stories, or Lessons, from childhood? How about during your teenage years?
How to treat fire flies or “lightening bugs”? What the constellations are? What about how to interact with others?
These are ways of Medicine for life, not just ‘guidance’.
Golanv will be with you for this, offering its Vision and Divine Wisdom to help you through the Time of Memory. What can you tell us that you learned from storytelling about your Heritage? Lineage? How to handle specific situations? What can you find?
As it is said, story telling is a way to remember who we really are. Who our family really is. Where we come from.
So, let me pour you a cup of tea, as I will myself… and listen to the sound of Wisdom as you speak it through writing in your story telling.
