I believe this would work well as a name for massage therapy salon. My first practice was called “Angelhands” in my own mind, Then it wound up that I mostly worked for spas & so did not even need a name. Yet it lives on, emerging into this timeline every once in a while.
I remember how awkward massage therapy was for me in the beginning. Before my hands learned the language of the body outside the formal frame of school. Before I knew the patterns my hands twine into on the client’s body. I love the way it has evolved & continues to evolve.
After I broke my arm recently I thought I had retired from doing massage. It seems I cannot stay away & I am once more in the lotion.
If I had a business now, I’d call it Digital Alchemy. For years, a shamanic friend of mine kept me in touch with a familiar name: Merlin, yes, of Arthurian fame. Merlin urged me consistently to use alchemy. He implanted the word so I react to each mention or exposure. Years after he & I no longer shared spirit-time, he had me on watch for a word.
Recently, I got the rest of the story: I figured out the magic travels through my hands whatever format it comes through. The hands have it, aye.
My injury has added a subset of emotion to the soundtrack I follow when doing massage. I plan to keep the reverence going.
As I shift, everything else does too. I am watching small cities I have built crumble.
Right now, the sacred instant demands prayer. Totems appear; one came to me recently as another left to be a wild thing again after many years. We got away from each other at the end there. My bull elk probably got most of what I accomplished done for me – at least the heavy lifting part. Now another energetic force is needed.
I began seeing dragons, moved beyond lower earth to an energetic stream beyond (Behind? Below?) 3D. Now I understand this totem is here to help with healing in all stages of my current life. She is an embodiment of my fire element.
The woman I sold my massage items to I work again, using my own tools more than I did at home.
One beautiful client held my hands after her massage, blessing them to God.
Just like everywhere else in life, growth happens. Sometimes this takes place in spurts. I am getting a feel for what I am being called forth into: it is more healing work.
Feels good to have a dragon involved.
