Travelling is a journey of the soul and
therefore is always a spiritual journey.
All of the colours, smells and sounds These are the moments you can’t plan for even if you hope or think they will happen on your trip. In the mid 90’s I went to the UK to study Aura Soma. The trip was both a study trip and a spiritual journey. Money was very tight and I needed to find the cheapest route to the UK. I was willing to go any route to get there. As I scanned the routes to the UK the cheapest always included Helsinki as a stopover on route. After the fifth routing with Helsinki in it my friend said ‘What is it about you and Helsinki?’ ‘I have no idea! ‘ I said as bemused as my friend, as I had no connections or desire to go there. ‘Well I think you need to go!’ she said. Now when I finally booked my ticket I was given a free stop over and you guessed it – it was in Helsinki! I knew no one living there, but another friend of mind had many years before billeted an international student for her daughter who had come from there. She contacted them and within 2 days I had some to meet me at the airport and welcome me to Helsinki. These happenstances are the signs of a ‘spiritual journey rather than just a trip. Doors will open for you where they had previously closed. The right people will come along who know Look out for these moments they need to be followed and enjoyed. For more of my spiritual journey to Helsinki catch me next time on PFM. May you always travel with the blessings of Peace Melody

Travelling is ultimately an opportunity to explore ourselves. It shows us the ‘god-consciousness’ in the ‘other’ whether we are travelling far from our home and what is familiar, whether we are returning to a part of ourselves we have forgotten or whether we are returning again to everything we hold dear.
