Star Seeds
Dear friend,
At the end of our most recent therapy session, Ben, my therapist, said something that jumped from him to me. It’s currently wandering inside of me, making itself a home.
“After all,” he said, “we’re all star seeds.”
You hear people talk about star seeds and light workers, and although I write for Light Worker Magazine from time to time and study and teach A Course in Miracles, overtly mystical terms have never really appealed to me.
Not as labels or titles, at least.
I had an allergic response the first time someone suggested that I’d enjoy anything with the word miracles in it. Years later I was sitting in a therapist’s chair when Danielle, my first therapist, handed me the thick blue-bound text of The Course and said,
“I think you’re ready for this now.”
I assumed she’d studied the book, but I later found out from her that she hadn’t and couldn’t account for giving it to me, other than she felt it was the right thing to do.
If I ask Ben about the star seed thing, he’ll most likely have forgotten all about it.
Intuition works like that.
It comes through you.
Not from you.
There was the dream in which a voice told me to start StarQuest Media.
I love looking up at the stars.
They give me a sense of being home.
And that line from David Bowie—
That got and kept my attention.
Like millions of others, I only had to hear it once.
Humans are meaning-making creatures, weavers of myth.
So what does it mean to feel aligned with star energy? I guess a better question is—who amongst us is not?
We are all star people, for the simple reason that without a star we could not live as we do.
Our star is nature as much as a sycamore tree, a brook, or the cells of our own bodies.
It’s easy to look at the sun and take it for granted.
The source of life.
Giving without asking.
Pouring light into the universe.
So light workers and star seeds are people who seek to make our world kinder, more compassionate, more connected.
Many work as healers.
But everyone has the power to heal.
If you can listen without fixing or judging, and someone feels heard or understood, then you are, in that moment, a healer.
Practising kindness and gratitude is healing in itself.
Everyone has the capacity for it.
Every act counts.
It adds up.
Returning to its source.
Like a river to the ocean.
Till tomorrow
Love
Mikey
