The origins of how we define ourselves is so fascinating. Language can be an incredible translator for the symbiotic vibratory intimacy that we are experiencing, a great way to integrate the energy that we are learning with, as a layer of expressive understanding... Yet the words of our current human experience (in English for me) seem to fall short of the Wholeness ecology that we are enmeshed within. And to further muddle the magic, words have become weapons in so many ways. The beautiful balance to this, is the invitation to consciously play with our words to formulate poetry with our lived experience. Poetry without rules, or specific structure... just heartfelt translations of our very human reflections of this reality. I understand why folks lean INTO the word Animism, but knowing the origins certainly changes my perspective of the word. Like God, I do not think Nature's expression needs a word for us to cage it within. Thanks for this reminder 💞

Thank you for this. I often get so frustrated with our language, it feels like one of my biggest challenges in life and is probably why I took up writing. There are so many things I want to talk to people about that I can’t find adequate words for. I love that you frame it as an invitation to poetry. I can feel my whole body soften when I think of it like that.

Known by another name or word we call it consciousness. Everything has consciousness and our brains have the ability to tune into electro magnetic energy. Some more than others. Consciousness is the universe. Consciousness is life. Frequency and vibration.
