It is the ideogram “zi,” meaning “character” or “symbol.”
Ancient Chinese characters, carved in oracle bones and bronze seals date back to the very beginning of human culture 6000 years ago. These pictograms are windows into a living landscape, one that opens our heart to the language of the more-than-human world around us; the air, wind, water, cloud, grass growing slowly beneath our feet, roots feeling their way to water, trees reaching out to the stars. This is language as talisman. When cultivated, these images tell stories that speak from our ancestors who lived in kinship with the powers of nature and knew its deep medicine.
In this 3 hour workshop we will encounter Chinese characters of the Heart, that center of “felt knowing” within us where all deep healing takes place. We will learn how to experience these symbols as living guides whose presence in our lives enables us to once again know ourselves as participants in the cosmic community. As you learn to see these characters as old friends, they will begin speaking in the cracks in the road, waving in the trees to you, calling out in the ripples of the shore and never again, will you feel so alone in the world.
