Dionysus Speaks Try the following exercise that is based on the premise that within
the garden of Dinoysus, deep within our psyche, lies a sensuous world,
filled with a profusion of nature's fruits. It is just a matter of finding
your way into this walled garden. Move to the compound where Dionysus and Pan have retreated. Find the doorway to their space. Note what the door is made of. Let the door come alive. Is the door prepared to open itself? Do voices call out? What do you hear? Allow the pen to write whatever is entering your mind. Consider writing the dialogue you have with Dionysus and Pan. Ask them how you can unify them with your everyday self. Ask them how to write. Begin writing. Do not worry about grammar or spelling. Just write for twenty minutes about your journey. Do not stop to think. Just write about where you are and what happens. You could write directly in the Bravenet forum I have provided or add your piece afterwards. |

Play some pan flute music
like Medwyn Goodall's Medicine Woman and sit quietly in front of your
journal, holding a simple seashell in your left hand and your pen in the
right hand. (Assuming your right hand is the dominant hand. You can reverse
this) Caress the shell with your fingers. Let your eyes travel over its
surface. Let the music that Pan used to attract the nymphet's waft into
the house within. Breathe deeply. Close your eyes and quietly wander into
the corridors of your shell using your senses. Look around. What do you
see, hear, smell, touch with your naked feet. Wander through the multi-levels
of the shell compound. Peer through unopened doorways and windows. Notice
your surroundings. Feel the surfaces.
