When we leave the west, having found inner strength and having learned the lessons loss brings, we can come out transformed and spiritually renewed. The words used for this track are the opening lines from psalm 96, which is one of the psalms we sing on Friday night as we prepare for shabbat which will give us rest and spiritual renewal.
shiru l’adonai shir chadash
shiru l’adonai kol ha-aretz
sing a new song for the creator
sing for the creator, all of the earth
These words remind us that in fact all of creation in all its diversity comes from the same source of life, and that we can find harmony with all of life by remembering this - together. In such a meeting, life is renewed and everything we do, everything we say or sing has the quality of newness.
On the wheel we are now in the north-west, the place of essential transformation. Here we have added no environmental sounds, but the sounds of voice and drum themselves are transforming and changing.
