The Phoenix Soul. We are truth-speakers, heart-on-our-sleevers, love-believers. You are. I am. We are The Phoenix Soul (indie digital magazine & community).
issue 49:
UNITY
Phoenix soul, listen for the heartbeat of our common humanity: you are never alone.
When we connect soul-to-soul (the real in me meeting the real in you), it's easy to see we are global kin.
When we start from a standpoint of kindness, compassion, and authenticity, we discover common threads. We are united. We are whole.
“LOVE is the healing balm that our world DESPERATELY needs more of. LOVE is the medicine that can heal. LOVE is the antidote to fear and where there is LOVE, fear cannot exist.”
May we be love in action. Peace in practice.

The Phoenix Soul: UNITY
When we bring our whole-souled selves to the world, we are able to connect with authenticity. Our realness encourages others to be their own vibrant true selves. Can you imagine a world where we all acknowledged, honored, and cherished the infinite and infinitesimal differences that make us special, that all contribute to the health and harmony and healing of the whole?
“We all love, bleed, ache, dream, forgive, sing, laugh, yearn, shout, sigh, give up, try again, grieve, believe. We all want to be loved and understood. To be valued. As we are.”

“In me is the spirit which gives life / to every living thing. I strum to the stars / my brief but beautiful song. God answers / and takes my hand in love: I am Her bride / and Her beloved sister. I am Her daughter. / Within me, She has lived.”
Phoenix soul, your authentic connection begins here:
“Living authentically and honoring the way I need to be in the world, only creates more of the same within and ahead of me. It’s a momentum thing. A magnificent snowball.”
May the real in me
meet the real
in you.
“rooting myself in the truths the tribe shares :: i am not alone. i am well loved. i am worthy of care and time together. we are made for each other, after all. [...]
we gather. we share. we tend. again. and again. we retreat and we show up. in the light, when the shadow is cast, and through the darkest dark. through it all, tending and tended, we are united in love.”
