(HSL stands for Heathen Soul Lore)

Before doing this exercise read through the assignment, Chapter 15 on the souls’ fields of awareness. This chapter, and this exercise, are quite advanced; you may choose to wait until your learning and experiences with your souls have had a chance to settle in and take root, before tackling this challenging scenario!
Reading
Read Book II (A Personal Approach) Chapter 15: “Fields of Awareness,” or the article of the same name on my website listed under the “Soul Lore” menu header, and work through the exercise in your Daybook or Workbook.

Practice Notes
Within the holism of our Being, there are multiple fields of awareness that bloom forth from each of our souls, merging and blending at the margins, narrow or broad, where they overlap with our other souls. We are likely to be very much aware of some of these fields or soul-ecosystems, and may be quite unaware of others. If we seek to grow to the full stature of our Eormensoul, our Great-Soul or Oversoul, we must become more conscious of these different soul-fields of awareness, and learn to mesh them in functional ways that enhance the strength and quality of our entire soular system. This exercise is a step in that direction.
Work with your soul-tokens, if you are using them
When you are doing the reading, writing the exercises, meditating, communing with the Deities and spirits, using divination or spaeworking, and working with bindrunes or single runes, keep the token(s) you have already made with you. It’s especially important to do that with this exercise in the fields of awareness.
Divination and spaeworking
If you like to use runes or another system of divination, by all means use them to explore more questions and insights about how your souls and their various modes of awareness interact to form your total field of awareness, and record your results in your Daybook. Likewise, if you are experienced with spaeworking, seidhcraft, or similar esoteric or magical work, these are excellent ways to explore the souls, but should not be pursued before learning proper methods and precautions.
Initiation Ceremony
There is no initiation ceremony for this step.
