One of the most powerful forces in a Wisdom Circle is the energy of diversity.
The Circle members often come from many different 'walks' of life and because of this, each member brings very different life experiences.
The diversity can express itself in age, gender, profession, hobbies, gifts, personalities,
soul signatures, etc.
No two of us are carbon copies of each other...praise be!!!
The fun of this can also be seen as each member in the Wisdom Circle often comes to adopt a 'role' in the group.
Some may take on the 'role' of 'Truth Teller'.
That has certainly been one of the 'roles' of my husband, Stephen, who is in the
picture above.
When a discussion within the Circle is not connecting in with deep truth and honest feelings,
Stephen is always right there to share from his heart and speak his truth with clarity and conviction.
Others in the group have often shared how much they appreciate his 'baring of his soul' and sharing from the depths of his own pain, joy and challenges.
Others in the group take on other 'roles'.
There are those that are the ones that 'hold the space' of the 'scientists'.
These folk will press the group to look at the scientific basis of content and the reason behind the way things seem to be.
Others may take on the 'role' of the holder of 'compassionate presence'.
These individuals have an open heart and can heal simply by being present and deeply listening to the story of another.
Other members may be the 'fire starters'.
These members come up with exciting ideas of things to explore and wonder about
within the Circle.
Others hold the 'role' of those that 'ground' the Circle.
These individuals keep the group connected to original purpose, principles, practices that are the foundational elements of the Circle.
Still others may hold the function of gentle 'space holders'.
They are often quiet and soft in their energy and create a supportive structure within the Circle. Thelp everyone feel accepted, ok, and important to the whole.
Everyone who shows up in the Circle plays a unique 'role' in creating this sacred space.
No 'role' or space is more important or significant than another.
It is the beauty, wisdom, love and light that each member brings that creates the space of healing for all.
Weaving the web of wholeness is a work that requires forgiveness, letting go, reaching out, leaping forward, dancing with mystery and so much more.
Through the community of the Circle, we can experience what these mean to each of us as souls on a wonderful journey back home.
