What Say You?

69 Marbles

     I have a  friend who says it’s all part of Mercury Retrograde but I’ve been strolling down that alley of memories with my exes who’ve been playing cameo appearances in my dreams lately.  It can be annoying to close my eyes at the end of the day and be transported back to the past when I’m clearly trying to stay present. 
     When I first started writing screenplays, my prof had two rules: 1. No flashbacks; 2. No voice-overs.  Yet I consistently go into flashbacks in my dreams whilst my voice-over asks, “Why?” Why have Ex-man and the other exes been recurring themes in my dreams?
     This afternoon as I stepped into a hot bath, these words popped into my head: You aligned with your ex-husband when you were together, you aligned with Ex-man when you were with him, it’s time for you to explore the question, “What say you?”
     Hmmm, nothing like a cryptic message from the bath Gods who are obviously from another era.  Who says, “What say you?” It’s almost Shakespearean.  Yet I get what I’m wanting to discover - who am I, independent of any of the people who are in my life, who am I, independent of the me that is mother, daughter, employee, once lover/wife/partner, who am I? Who am I? What is the energy that is me? It’s time to explore the question, “What say me?”

Who are you? What say you? If you take away all alignments and connections to the people in your life, who is the being that is you?
