Wilderness Solo

Context:

This was written during a 10 day Wilderness Solo retreat as a part of the Four Seasons Journey, a year long course, run by the School of Shamanic Womancraft (SSW). And yes, that first sentence may take a reread or rererereread to understand lol, we love a good attention grabber. In the middle of those ten days, myself and six other women spent 3 days on our own water fasting with a tent, our medicine drum, and a journal with the intention of calling in a vision - hence calling this a Vision Quest. Our two teachers and apprentices held space at the home on this property by monitoring the walkie talkie (we could call in or whistle in case we needed anything). When I wrote this, it was the first full day of the Vision Quest, October 6th. Since then, I have done more processing and integration and feel deep gratitude for this experience - which is not really highlighted in this stage of the journey. I’m learning that by writing in rhymes, it helps me continue the writing flow by giving my thoughts some sort of loose structure.

In my experience, I haven’t come across much content of people who are beginning/in the middle of their “spiritual journeys”. Like most media, polarization is the most common stance - either social media is making fun of spiritual people, or it’s a guru preaching love and light. So, I volunteer as tribute to act as a Bridge.

My whole life I’ve always been drawn to nature as a teacher, which is what spirituality basically is, in essence. Then, as I started to get more into studying astrology in 2018, the world of mantras and meditation found its way into my orbit. I’d say that my move back to California in 2021 was the real start of my #journey, thanks to the ample supply of open hearted humans I met (specific shoutout to the gorgeous soul Austin) and the strong culture of psychedelics that exists. After 10 months of exploring the magical lands of Mexico, I signed up for the School of Shamanic Womancraft based in Australia, eager to wet my witchy whistle. Quite quickly, I felt like I was in over my head, that the other women were already so advanced in their abilities/careers/etc, and self-doubt began to emerge. Without saying much more, this poem/free write thang expresses those emotions of frustration, blame, and resistance about where I’m at in my journey. I wrote it right after I meditated and FINALLY felt like I connected to a higher frequency without any external assistance (to be explained more below).

I hope this share serves.

Much love,

Beth

Woke up and choose love and gratitude

Sat outside, stared at a tree ribbon, changed my whole attitude

My vision started to blur into fractals

Figured I’d give meditation a crackle

Kept my focus on the stringy ribbon thing

Imagined my thoughts as a rat on a wheel

Killed the rat, put it for a rest

Continued to keep my focus as a test

Checked out of reality, said goodbye to time and space

The sun came out and surrendered without a trace

Not long into it, flys came around

Changed my position to in my tent, continued to ground

Breath flowing in and out with intention

Became aware of my energy, fostered a heart connection

There I felt a tightness around the chakra

Love myself is a fitting new mantra

Laying down, my thoughts began to drift

Give wings to my voice, spirit felt a lift

Had a check in with my guides, my family

I was most in tune to listen to their voice

James, Bernice, and Mildred intuitively came to me

Grandpa, Gramma, Aunt from my sequoia ancestry tree

Supported like a spider on a web spun with silk

There’s no point in climbing if the base isn’t built

Start small babe, don’t get in over your head

Life’s about taking risks, keep trying til you’re dead

Being so self aware at times feels like a burden

How I feel inside’s never hidden behind a curtain

Feeling behind my sisters’ abilities is a truth

I’m starting to ground and they’re astral projecting out the roof

Can’t trance dance or journey without weed

Reaching for the stars while feeling like a seed

“You already can” I am told but feel without guidance

My mom never pushed me, without support, feelings heighten

Swimming deep down into a lake of pity and resentment

My lungs burst for air so I climb onto a bench and

Look around, raise my eyebrow, and say - Why all this anger?

Everything happens for a reason, self sabotage is danger

Dangerously close to placing all my bets

Towards my future in a program whose pre-reqs I haven’t mastered yet

I keep trying hard, giving up’s not in my nature

In every course I’ve ever taken, I achieve the highest stature

Turns out shamanism isn’t quite like that

Your intuition initiation may come from a bat

In February, three years have passed since my breakup in Spain

The freedom to find myself has had doses of pain

Returned to home, took all the risks, spent weekends MIA

On Halloween I crashed my truck, to jail I was taken away

Fuck the justice system, fuck the US, I found an online job

Moved to Mexico to start anew, my dreams cannot be robbed

Loved living life as I desire outside my nine to five

Forty hour weeks compared to magic peeps who knew of no restrictions

Inspired me to realize I, too was worthy of abundance

Decided now was time to invest in skills that’d grant me everything I wish

Heard Australia’s a land of opportunities and ease

My bro is there and sister in law, getting a visa was a breeze

Go there for what? I considered, Not anything will do.

“Aha!” Said Kiki, my sister in law, “What about this school?

It’s called Shamanic Womancraft, their workshop was v cool!”

Women’s circles, wilderness solo, cyclical wisdom?

My curiosity peaked an all time high, my searching was done!

Quit my job, flew back home, changed my life in three short weeks

Surrender and trust in the unknown, what’s sown I’ll surely reap

Well, little research and lots of faith had unexpected results

Connection to Spirit has no instruction guide, no missing nails or bolts

Then how? I question, feeling lost and unqualified

Nothing’s working, nor my cycle’s flowing, no matter how hard I tried

The only hope that I find’s in the hands of Mary Jane

With her, I fly in meditations and hear voices of my guides

But without her medicine, I am a novice and tears come to my eyes

My final hope rests on the Wilderness Solo, surely answers’ll come

Yet, the same actions produce the same results, from the truth I cannot run

I push myself, so very hard, to sing, to drum, to dance

Wind, rain, and cold take me ahold, defeat’s my only trance

Finally the sun comes out, so I sit in meditation

Loving joy overwhelms me once I find my concentration

Small wins are much more valuable than aiming for the moon

To land amongst the stars feels sparkly and I shift my tune

This is my path, it’s full of surprises, and surely never boring

Into the lion’s den I fearlessly marched, and I’ll come out roaring

For some reason, this is necessary, perhaps later I’ll know

This seed has landed amongst giants - what motivation to grow!

Engaging with a troll was not how I thought I’d learn more about womancraft. But like all things womancraft, I’m opening to however the learning appears.
