Alchemy of Purpose

When enough of your true purpose is revealed through your life story, you will not look back and say what took me so long. Your eyes will be full of stars as you look back and understand with crystal clarity that every single moment provided some important component of your alchemy, your becoming, your allowing, your remembering... which perfectly served that purpose. All along it had been giving you some necessary ingredient for power and medicine, in the forms of temperance, awareness, humility, patience, groundedness, compassion, trust, respect, insight, experience, empathy, sympathy, love and wisdom, which was needful.

When you know then, in your sovereignty, that what you submitted to was your own rebirthing, you experience the final initiation, the last stage of your alchemy. You are bowed and humbled at your own brave submission to these rings of fire and subsequent passage through these alchemical processes. Your benevolence is suddenly understood by you to the degree of your suffering. All makes sense in the perfection of your positioning.

It is at this time in your process that your True Teacher will appear to reveal and affirm to you the depth of this Truth. This is when the severity of your fatherline hands you to the mercy of your motherline, to the Divine Mother. As you make it through the threshold of the Karma door and stepping over into your dharma... you pass through the veil. Understanding is at hand. Redemption is nigh. No longer concerned with what you are not, the wool that has been over your eyes is lifted and an inkling of what and who you are stands revealed.

The Gate to the Garden stands before you. You are now free to be free, not for anarchy, but for the ability to remember your true sovereignty and how to love like God and Goddess love. Both parents, pillars, gates are now known to you. You now know that they have been working together but apart from each other all this time, and forever more, until they are reunited in you. As you understand why the rose has thorns, you understand the dance of duality, and that it is only a gateway to the portal of a world of multiplicity and omniscience which expands through that binary system, just across the way. It is what is on the other side of those poles which flank the gate.

Walking through you see you are not alone, however. Looking around the ones you love are already there with you on the "outside". You realize the trick and the great Heyoka has made you bring heaven to earth right here and right now, all the while thinking it was over there and somewhere else. For it is now known to you that there has always been more than two, that the moment you were born there was 3 and then 4. On the day you knew there was 5 you became fully human. You now walk the Path in the Beautiful Way with all that you are, for you know that no matter how many facets there are, they are all part of the One, and you are in communion with it All.
