Falling asleep while writing this, I still wanted to briefly share how impactful this day has been, and why we all need magic in our mundane muggle-based-reality. If we only perceive life as the functional world of to-do-lists, things we look forward to, vs things and people we want to avoid, we loose our juice and become brittle and dry. This is the loss of eros, but also the loss of the subtle and sensual divine. It's the loss of the magic, the mystery and that which we can call home. I've been obsessed with magic my entire life, and now at this retreat I'm reminded of why. I need more magic in my life. But I also know that I'm not alone in experiencing this. 

All women who have explored feminine leadership, speak to this longing for magic, even though they might use different words. I believe women suffer even more from being disconnected from the magic of feeling their interiority, their soul-connection, and the radical sense of aliveness that Eros offers us, than men do. But when we haven't felt it for a while, or never, we don't even know where to start looking for it. We can't fathom that we are it. And that this 'it' can be awakened, rediscovered and fully felt, if not all of the time, at least some of it. 

How do you sense and experience magic in your everyday life? If you experience a felt sense of magic, where is it coming from?

PS. Oh, and btw, after  today, I've decided to restart my fantasy-writing and to take it seriously! Which makes me soooo happy - and just a tiny bit scared!
