There are moments in ceremony that split the veil wide open.

This one came with San Pedro, beneath a Peruvian sky, mountains cradling me like ancient hands. My body had already purged, my ego dissolved in a thousand tears. I wasn’t reaching anymore. I was resting. Receptive.

And then she came.

Not in a flash. Not in a dream.
She arrived like a whisper woven into the wind—gentle, certain, and eternal.

A little girl. Light in her eyes. Wisdom in her gaze. She didn’t speak with words, but her presence said everything.

She was my daughter.

Not yet born. Not yet conceived. But real.
So real I could feel her heartbeat inside my own.
She smiled and I wept—not out of fear, but recognition.

In that moment, I saw the legacy of healing moving through bloodlines.
Not just mine. Ours.
I saw that every wound I had faced, every battle I had fought to reclaim my soul, was not just for me.

It was for her.
And for all the ones coming after us.

✨ **What She Taught Me**

She showed me the truth of lineage healing—that when we do the work to reclaim our hearts, we plant new seeds in ancestral soil.

She reminded me that the sacred masculine is not just protector of the now—but of the not-yet-born.

She reminded me that fatherhood isn’t biology—it’s legacy.

She reminded me that our visions matter.

Because sometimes, they’re not metaphor. They’re memory.

This daughter has not yet arrived in this world. 
But she lives in my choices. 
In my prayers. 
In the way I listen now.

She is already here.
