Crossing the threshold

Every labyrinth begins at the edge – the moment before the first step.

I am standing there now. After many years of knots, after setting the craft down, after the long quiet that followed and the return, I am taking up the thread again – and this time, in the open.

That is what this journal is about. The practice itself, speaking as it unfolds: the meaning of the stone, the reason for creating a talisman, what surfaces in the process of making it. I am trying something completely new here – excited and slightly apprehensive, committing to failing forward.
This is the thinking underneath it all.

The thread is in my hands. I am crossing in.
