Centerpoint

Deep inside of me is a place,
A place not easily accessible but available if I look.
A place as wide as a galaxy, a place as small as an atom,
A place deep and dark, a place bursting with light.

This is my center, the seat of my wholeness, the essence of my Soul.
I go inward, held in the knowledge that this place, this center point is my resting place.

Here, I meet Goddess.
Here I am my true self – alive, joyous, creative, or tired, lost, afraid.
There is nothing so dark that it cannot be transmuted into gold,
Nothing so ugly that She cannot bear it with me.

Here I am safe, I am held, I am loved.
Here I am WHOLE.
As I sit in this centerpoint of myself, I can trust that all is well
For the Divine Feminine resides in me and I in Her.
