Red Thread Circles (Day 29 blogging with Effy Wild)

For me, the Red Thread is a symbol of the connection we all have to each other deep down in the energy that is our soul.  Red threads have a symbolic energy meaning and recur throughout our physical world: blood vessels, DNA, fibers in our food and clothing; from fractals & nanotechnology to images of far galaxies. 
The Red Thread is used in circle as a reminder to tend that inner connection and thereby our neighbors. 
The Red Thread circle creates a space, or container, for compassion and allowing, for self and one another.  In that space you can feel a sense of belonging, witnessed and supported, as well as offering that to others.   You carry that Red Thread from the circle as a reminder that you have that support and as your piece to live every day with compassion. 
​If we could cultivate this type of interaction with others and model it for our children, maybe we wouldn’t be seeing some of the violent and hopeless happenings going on with our youth or the negative climate splattered all over the news.
Creativity is a way of expressing yourself as individual and can be beneficial in helping create space for compassion by becoming present and being mindful.   My goal is to develop a program based around Red Thread Circles and using art activities to reinforce those compassionate connections first to self and then to others.  I am currently holding monthly Circles at my artist cooperative and looking at branching out to offer them in the work place, social groups etc.  It’s great support for those in especially stressful fields.
(my training for Red Thread Guide is through Shiloh Sophia at Musea.org)
