The Symbol of the Threshold | Episode 28 | Soror Mystica Podcast

What does it mean to approach a threshold? Prevalent in myths, fairy tales, sagas, ancient hymns, thresholds represent a point of departure from the profane to the sacred. Thresholds demarcate the space between realms, and our passage through them is transformative. But how do we know when we’re at a “threshold moment”? And what do we do when we find ourselves navigating the difficulty of said passage?
Tune in to this episode, where we explore the thresholds in myth, dreams, astrology, and tarot, and offer perspective on what it means to find transformation through life’s unique threshold moments.

Incredible work! This episode reminds me of the great John O Donohue and his teachings. He says this: 'At any time you can ask yourself: At which threshold am I now standing? At this time in my life, what am I leaving? Where am I about to enter? What is preventing me from crossing my next threshold? What gift would enable me to do it? A threshold is not a simple boundary; it is a frontier that divides two different territories, rhythms, and atmospheres. Indeed, it is a lovely testimony to the fullness and integrity of an experience or a stage of life that it intensifies toward the end into a real frontier that cannot be crossed without the heart being passionately engaged and woken up. At this threshold a great complexity of emotion comes alive: confusion, fear, excitement, sadness, hope. This is one of the reasons such vital crossings were always clothed in ritual. It is wise in your own life to be able to recognize and acknowledge the key thresholds: to take your time; to feel all the varieties of presence that accrue there; to listen inward with complete attention until you hear the inner voice calling you forward. The time has come to cross'. -Excerpt from his book Benedictus OR in the US - Blessing the space between us.

I don't know if you all are aware of how prophetic you guys are with this video. 2024 in the Jewish calendar is the year of the "door" aka threshold. I'm taking notes on this one!

[@PersephonesSister]

Oh my gosh I didn’t realize, that’s awesome!

[@zenithhour]

I'm not sure how you guys pick what symbols to do videos on, but this one was coincidentally connected to the spiritual significance of this year.@@PersephonesSister

I have a blue mark on my shoulder that just kinda appeared when I was a child and it still remains, it's about the size of a large mole (no lump) but blue in color. I read that the witch of kings crossing had a mark like this, just wondering what this means. I've been told I have a mystic cross on one of my palms and i also have a bright red mark that appeared around the same time as my blue mark on the lower palm below my pinky finger. Do you know what this stuff means?
