Ash embodies solar energy. It is medicine for the strengthening of our life force and our connection to our inner sun. My initiation into Ash energy occurred in July 2022 as I was carving the block for the Ash print. I feel the best way to share Ash energy with you is to share this story. Please refer to the “Energies” tab below to learn more about how this energy can assist you.
I was on a morning walk with my dog on a hot, humid summer morning. We were crossing the street from the small park at the bottom of our hill. Here the street reaches a low point and then its elevation rises sharply for the short block on the other side of the intersection. I was suddenly aware that a man was running towards us from the top of that incline. He was shouting something at the top of his lungs as he flew down the steep hill. As he drew closer I realized he was singing, or chanting what might have been a tune if he hadn’t been running fast and shouting the words at his dynamic limit. He was wearing nothing but small yellow running shorts and a pair of running shoes. Sweat was streaming off him as he ran. He was really flying in spite of the already high heat and humidity – like a mighty god. He was shout-chanting these words, on endless repeat, as he flew:
My son is living!
My son is breathing!
The doctor said No!
But You said Yes!
His sweat splashed me as he ran by. In the same moment a great wave of energy hit me. It was one of the highest energies I’ve ever felt from any human being. It seemed to shift me into a different world. I cried as I walked home with my dog, listening to his constant song recede into the distance. I sat for hours carving the Ash block. The energy stayed with me for all of those hours. All the while I could hear the man’s chant in my head. I can hear it now, over a year later.
