We're all following a silent group of people we don't know, back into the unknown past. I don't believe that the dead simply disappear. They come to us in dreams and the half-conscious state before we fall asleep, they call to us, they warn and help us, and sometimes hand down also hurt and trauma.

Something else just came to mind that I thought to share:

I have a very good Jewish friend (whom to my disgust, decided to return to the mother land during Brexit, so I don't see or hear from his regularly anymore). He invited me to his wedding. I'd never been to a Jewish wedding and it was steeped in tradition - so much so, that I felt overwhelmed for everybody else. Lol.

(which I'm sure is ridiculous, but that's how it hit me).

Later when we spoke of it, he said to me "Yes - we are standing on the shoulders of giants! 💪".

And my expression from my experience was - "rather than being held up by giants, I feel like you are the tiny cogs holding up a giant weight - like Atlas's curse".

Further on this story - just because I know you'll all love it 😉:

A year or so earlier he and I were entering a class room to hear all about Pamela Coleman Smith's life, and on each of our chairs, there was a Tarot card. We were directed to look at our Tarot card.

The card that he had on his chair - was the 4 of Wands. He looked at the card and said to me - "What does this mean?". And I said - "It's a wedding... getting married or going to a wedding anytime soon??"

He was silent for a little while, and then he said to me "I've met someone...".

Huh -Fancy!!!!

AND - then, when I went to his wedding - I saw, the 4 of Wands in the flesh, because traditionally, Jewish people get married under a canopy held up by 4 pillars. I was gobsmacked and excited, because being ignorant I was not expecting this.

1) ...Earth and their Spirit Soul and live as another human Clan member.

So Not only am I guided and protected, I am also teaching my Ancestors, about the beautiful mess that is today....

2)..... 7 generations from now – I have to come back – What will then be the mess of the day- back “home” in Siberia?

1) What a thought...

2) Why 7? fascinating. I was introduced to the 7 generations back idea, through seeing a carving. ...on Etsy.

I was spellbound and really wanted to jam it into my already full collection, however, it was a bit out of my price range. It was 7 generations of women and was a bit like a Russian doll.

The "mess" will hopefully be far less than in other places around the globe 🤞.

Then again... perhaps by then, we'll have had a 3rd world war, obliterated everything and have started from scratch once more... or gone to the stars and terraformed the nearest planets... 🤔...

I like the idea of teaching my ancestors. It lends a layer of responsibility to how one lives their life, which I think is a good thing.
