trail of footprints

Pada means foot or part of a poem and implies a step or passage in the course of one's spiritual or holistic life. Padajna is to know these sacred footprints, and pada-viya is the trail left by the pada journey.

I would not think to touch the sky with two arms -Sappho, fragment 52

Me: witchy, feminist, circus girl, art, curating, writer, photographer, maker of herbal tinctures and the likes, reading poetry, studying dreams, exploring forests, reading tea leaves, watching birds, talking to the moon.

A note: I like to follow certain types of tumblrs through a feed reader, so I may still be following your posts, even if I'm not following you on Tumblr.

At 4,841 years old, this ancient bristlecone pine is the oldest known non-clonal organism on Earth. Located in the White Mountains of California, in Inyo National Forest, Methuselah’s exact location is kept a close secret in order to protect it from the public. (An older specimen named Prometheus, which was more than 5,000 years old, was cut down by a U.S. Forest Service graduate student in 1964.) Today you can visit the grove where Methuselah hides, but you’ll have to guess at which tree it is. Could this one be it?The world’s 10 oldest living trees
