Between The Light Walking the space between shadow and light. Exploring presence, inner listening, and what it means to live in the space between certainty and mystery.

Some of the most awake people you'll ever meet
are sitting quietly in the middle of their own undoing.

You do not heal by silencing the storm. You heal by sitting in it until it recognises you are not afraid.

The inner journey is rarely loud or dramatic.

More often it is found in pauses, in breath, in reflection, and in the courage to meet ourselves without performance.

Transformation does not always announce itself.

Sometimes it moves silently.

A new name. The same presence.

Many of you have been here since the days of Shamanic Tribes, and this feels like the right moment to honour that — and to share what’s shifted.

The truth is, this page has been outgrowing its name for a while. Not because that path wasn’t real — it was — but because something quieter has taken its place.

Between the Light is a space for those moving through awakening — the dark nights, the slow and quiet dawning of something new. A place to be met, with honesty and without judgment.

That space between darkness and dawning — that’s where most of us actually live. Not in the breakthrough moments, but in the tender in-between. And that’s exactly where this page wants to meet you.

If you’re walking through your own unfolding — quietly, honestly, sometimes painfully — you’re in the right place.

Be the silent watcher of your thoughts and behavior. You are beneath the thinker. You are the stillness beneath the mental noise. You are the love and joy beneath the pain.

We are all a work in progress,
Each evolving year by year,
There is no finished product,
Forever learning, while we're here.

We can no longer be the person,
That we once were, at seventeen,
For life has changed our vision,
Through all we've felt and seen.

With each year we gain more insight,
Our values change with age,
We discover another layer,
As we turn another page.

Each chapter brings new perspectives,
Reality transforms like shifting sand,
What seemed so clear in younger days
Now holds a wiser, gentler hand ...

“When the Raven Met the Owl”

Beneath the turning sky,
where stars remember their first breath,
the Raven and the Owl face one another—
keepers of the unsaid,
guardians of the space between worlds.

The Raven carries night in his feathers,
inked with the stories of beginnings.
He speaks for the fire before language,
for the silence that shaped the mountains
before names were given.

The Owl holds the moon in her gaze,
soft and eternal,
a mirror of endings that are also doors.
She listens for the souls who wander,
calling them gently home through shadow.

Between them, the universe hums—
a spiral of memory,
a drumbeat older than breath.
Time bows its head,
and the ancestors step closer,
their footsteps woven into the wind.

They speak without sound:
All things walk together.
All wounds remember light.
All beings belong.

In their stillness, the forest exhales.
In their knowing, the heart remembers
what the world once whispered to us
before we forgot how to listen.

If you hear them now—
do not turn away.
The Raven and the Owl
are not watching you.

They are reminding you
that you, too,
carry the sky within your chest
and the old songs
sleeping in your blood.

“Some periods of our growth are so confusing that we don’t even recognize that growth is happening. We may feel hostile or angry or weepy and hysterical, or we may feel depressed. It would never occur to us, unless we stumbled on a book or a person who explained to us, that we were in fact in the process of change, of actually becoming larger, spiritually, than we were before.

Whenever we grow, we tend to feel it, as a young seed must feel the weight and inertia of the earth as it seeks to break out of its shell on its way to becoming a plant. Often the feeling is anything but pleasant. But what is most unpleasant is the not knowing what is happening.

Those long periods when something inside ourselves seems to be waiting, holding its breath, unsure about what the next step should be, eventually become the periods we wait for, for it is in those periods that we realize that we are being prepared for the next phase of our life and that, in all probability, a new level of the personality is about to be revealed.”

✨Autumn Equinox ✨
At this time of balanced day and night, the duality between light and dark becomes heightened and tangible, and with it comes the opportunity of reflection and spiritual transformation. In the cycle of birth, life, and death, we are reminded that often things must die before they can become reborn. The flower must wither and fade before it can release its seeds, the salmon must return to freshwater, the place of her birth, and surrender her life in order to release her eggs. We must breathe in and out to survive, a balance of yin and yang, giving and receiving. Spiritual ascent requires descent first, and through this willingness to go deep within ourselves we face own inner darkness, shining the light of understanding and acceptance. This is the alchemy of transformation, turning our shadow into pure gold.

When a cat falls out of a tree, it lets go of itself. The cat becomes completely relaxed, and lands lightly on the ground. But if a cat were about to fall out of a tree and suddenly made up its mind that it didn't want to fall, it would become tense and rigid, and would be just a bag of broken bones upon landing.

In the same way, it is the philosophy of the Tao that we are all falling off a tree, at every moment of our lives. As a matter of fact, the moment we were born we were kicked off a precipice and we are falling, and there is nothing that can stop it. So instead of living in a state of chronic tension, and clinging to all sorts of things that are actually falling with us because the whole world is impermanent, be like a cat.
