Part 2 on Abraham and the inspirations for improvisation.
-Being open to new possibilities, beyond our imagination, no matter what our astrological chart even says
-What the shofar has to do as a ritual and symbol for non attachment to outcome
A story from the Midrash: Abraham's astrological chart said he'd never have children, so angles came and moved Jupiter to a different place in his chart… and then Isaac was born. What does it mean that yashar-el is above the stars
The second lesson is non-attachment.
A complicated story but non the less,
After Isaac is born, Abraham is willing to let him go entirely at the Akedah, sacrifice his son. A ram is sacrificed instead, and its horn becomes the shofar we blow throughout Elul. Shofar has many meanings and perhaps one of them could be symbol and ritual of letting go of attachment to outcome.
In dance improv we need to do that again and again, letting go of our ideas, non attachment to outcome
