OFFERINGS 7 DAYS OF REST 2026
DAY 1
Rest in Loving Essence
​
As we begin our journey of healing,
We ask to release from our lives all that no longer serves.
We agree to let go of the noise and the toxins
And the habits and the fears
And the feelings that hurt ourselves and others.
We shed that which is stale and rigid and lifeless
And relinquish that which has constrained
Our creativity and compassion.
We go deeper, listening patiently as the veils clear,
And fresh spaces open to new breath.
And in for-giving space,
Essence reawakens
Sprouting fresh roots
As it stirs in readiness
To dance again in love with all that is.

~ From the first 7 Days of Rest 2018

opening messages & blessings
opening message from the white lion heartlands
with linda tucker
Speaking from the Heart of White Lion ancestral territories, an ancient Sacred Natural Site which has been restored from an exploited wasteland to a flourishing paradise under the paws of Africa’s King of Kings, Linda Tucker offers an opening visualization for the year ahead, highlighting the opportunities being birthed out of the global challenges that we have all faced.
Inspired by the White Lions (known as “StarLions” in the ancient cultures), Linda begins her sharing by contextualising this cosmic moment, the most profound opportunity for the emergence of the Sacred Masculine (Mars) and the Sacred Feminine (Venus) into the Unified Being, blessed by the Solar Presence (Sun), in a unique Stellium of 40 days, that culminates in a conjunction at the close of 7 Days of Rest. Her Opening Blessing takes us into the crux of humanity’s crisis and charts the way out, revealing the fundamental difference between Consumerism and Predation: as leonine governance provides the key to the solution.
​
Founder of the Linda Tucker Foundation and Global White Lion Protection Trust, she and her team have successfully rewilded the White Lions, securing vast protected heritage lands in the heart of their ancestral territories in UNESCO's Kruger to Canyons Biosphere.
The White Lions and the work of Linda Tucker and the Global White Lion Protection Trust have been a profound inspiration for the 7 Days of Rest Event and for all of the initiatives of Together in Creation. We are immensely grateful to Linda Tucker for this powerful opening message from the Heartlands.
Wisdom Offering from Rutendo Ngara
In this reflection for 7 Days of Rest, Rutendo L. Ngara, transdisciplinary philosopher and Indigenous Knowledge Systems practitioner, speaks into rest as a prophetic and relational practice. At a time of planetary turning, the piece invites rest as remembering, resonance, and emergence, grounded in the cave as a place of unmaking and return.
