On the windswept plains of Sardinia, this carved stele stands as a sentinel of the prehistoric sacred spring of Santa Cristina, dating back to the Nuragic era around 1200 BCE. It marks a site where water was revered as a divine source of life and renewal.

The surface of the stone is adorned with spirals, concentric circles, and geometric motifs, symbols believed to represent cosmic cycles, the sun, and the eternal flow of water. Below, a small channel still carries the trickle of ancient springs, as if connecting past rituals to the living earth of today.

Its presence feels both earthly and celestial, as though it speaks the language of time itself. How many prayers, whispered under stormy skies or golden sunsets, have risen from this place to the gods of water and stone?

"All the works of the angels and the inspirations they impart are also accomplished or granted by God.

For ordinarily these works and inspirations are derived from God by means of the angels, and the angels also in turn give them one to another without delay."

~St. John of the Cross

If you are being held back by beliefs (of any kind)

I want to encourage you to actively look for, and seek out, evidence of the contrary and allow yourself to realise your resistance was nothing other than a narrative.

The only thing truly holding you back, was the story you were telling yourself, and the limitations you accepted as a result of listening to it.

“Trees are sanctuaries. Whoever knows how to speak to them, whoever knows how to listen to them, can learn the truth. They do not preach learning and precepts, they preach undeterred by particulars, the ancient law of life.”

If a union is to take place between opposites like spirit and matter, conscious and unconscious, bright and dark, and so on, it will happen in a third thing, which represents not a compromise but something new.

"If we surrendered to earth’s intelligence we could rise up rooted, like trees."

"Until philosophers rule as kings or those who are now called kings and leading men genuinely and adequately philosophise, that is, until political power and philosophy entirely coincide, while the many natures who at present pursue either one exclusively are forcibly prevented from doing so, cities will have no rest from evils,... nor, I think, will the human race."

~Plato, The Republic
