Fall Trip ~ Day Three

Yesterday was a day spent here at Casa Margarita where we made vision boards depicting our intentions for the week and a future we hold for ourselves.  Laughter and quiet permeated this time as we imagined the life we are creating.

Martina arrived to offer treatements at appointed times and discuss future treatments.  Of course the Caribbean and the infinity pool drew us in periodically while others were drawn to pool loungers to gaze into the beauty but found themselves lulled into a lovely afternoon siesta. 

We celebrated the Day of the Dead in the evening by remembering the ancestors who have shaped and continue to shape our lives.  We placed lighted candles on our Goddess Altar which contained treasured photos and mementos.  In that sacred space we shared the stories of those we love who have and continue to shape us.  Laughter, tears and moments of quiet honoring were interpersed with poetry and prayer.

One of the young men who tends to the maintenance of Casa Margarita and Casa del Sol, is anxious these days, full of excitement as he and his wife are expecting their second child "before Thursday."  While we remember our ancestors, his beautiful young family is growing!
