Nature SpiritsPosted Fri, 18-Oct-1996 22:21:11 GMT
"Whatever befalls the Earth befalls the sons of the Earth. Man did not weave the web of life; he is merely a strand in it. Whatever he does to the web he does to himself." -- Chief Seattle
Water LilyThe slightest glimpse that there is something more can be enough to stir your imagination. Be silent and listen to the words of the angels. Be calm and feel the presence of Devas. Be loving and know that your love is returned back to you, multiplied. I am Water Lily. My energy is pink and glowing. It spreads in a circular pattern so subtly about me, that there appears to be no movement in it. Even as the world of Nature teems with interesting things - the sounds, the scents, the things to see, the uncountable varieties of life, the uncountable varieties of consciousnesses, clusters and groups - there is another world that you have largely ignored. One of unseen energies, groups, untold varieties of consciousness. There is much to explore in your outer world and in your inner world. I am Water Lily. Come to me when you seek to explore the realms that seem to be outside your physical ability to explore. Even as you look underneath me to the unexplored world of lake, you can look beyond me to the unexplored world of spirit. As you read these words, you are already beginning to explore. As you feel their wisdom, as you feel their love, know that it is my way of opening the possibility of greater contact. As you explore this possibility, new worlds open up.
Ox-eye DaisyAwaken to the song of life in your heart. Awaken to the feeling that you have been here before that you have loved here before and that you know us all on an intimate level. I am Ox-eye Daisy. When you pluck me, and use me for adornment I am Ox-eye Daisy.
Cedar TreeWhen a man creates a lattice it's his way of trying to become one with a spiderweb or with an intricate intertwining of branches and twiglets. When man carves a piece of wood in an intricate design it is his way of trying to become one with the mystery that the wood itself holds or that the forest holds or the trees hold. All of these expressions of man are expressions of the yearning to return to oneness. I am Cedar Tree. My energy is yellowish and brownish and sometimes it is blue. My energy is uplifting, rising, spilling over with joyous laughter. Come to me when you need to be nurtured. I will house you in the warmth of my branches, in the density of my embrace, in the pleasure of my scent. My ability to withstand the ravages of time will help you to understand how to work with the elements around you. By working with them and not against them, you, too withstand the ravages of time. Time then works as an ally and not an enemy. I am Cedar Tree. My energy is joyous, nurturing and I welcome any who come to me with a heart of love.
LemonThere is a place for everyone on the earth. There's a place for every thing. There's a time or every one, a time for every thing. What may be a strong, vital and abundant plant now, may die off in a generation or two simply through the changing consciousness of the Earth. But in its time, it has untold abundance. A plant that can grow abundantly in a warm climate will not thrive in a cold one. There is a a place for this plant. The same goes for people. There is a time for each of you. There is a place for each of you. You have chosen it with as much care as we have chosen our opportunities for growth. I am Lemon. My colour is green and orange, healing colours. My energy moves away slowly in a circle from the source. Come to me when you need to validate your place in the world. I am Lemon. I can comfort you when you feel like you have no place. My juice supports you when you feel down, uplifts you when you need a boost. You are here of your own choice, of your own volition, for the lessons you want to learn. With that understanding, you may feel a greater purpose in your life. You have no greater purpose than to be, yet when you feel the need to hold a greater purpose, know that the choice was yours. I am Lemon. Refresh yourself with my energy. Renew your purpose in my fruit. And move on with a fresher, renewed sense of self.
Bittersweet NightshadeFeeling negative feelings is all right. If you are feeling angry or self-critical, frustrated, helpless, it is all right to feel these feelings. For you are not these feelings. You are the consciousness that feels these things, that has chosen to feel these things, in order to delve more deeply into who you are. The happier, more positive feelings, the ones of trust, self-worth, inner joy and peace and calm reflect more closely who you are. You are a child of laughter, a child of song, a child of dance and it is with these attributes that you have chosen to explore physicality. You came into this game seeing it as a game - a form of learning - a way to explore. When your feelings hurt, it is a part a game. But it is by understanding that it's a part of a game, part of a lesser picture of who you are, that you can overcome these feelings of hurt. You have become so caught up in the game that you have forgotten that it was a game to begin with. Take a look at each of these feelings of hurt and dismay and imagine in 50 years how much this will mean in the grand scheme of things. The point of this is not to undervalue your feelings. It is to recognize that in 50 years you will have gone beyond them, for the most part. If you look at a closer time, look one year in advance, and see yourself meditating often, living in the moment often, then you can see that you can fill your life with happier feelings, happier thoughts, simply by being aware of the negative feelings when they come up - acknowledging that they are all right to have and tracing them back to the part of you that does not remember who you are, the part of you that lives in fear. The more of these that you can clean up, then the less these fearful situations and events arise, the ones that cause you to feel uncomfortable, or alone or empty or disillusioned. Instead, in their place, come opportunities that you hadn't realized existed. Opportunities to explore the beauty that is around you and within you. To explore the gentleness and kindness of your own nature and the natures of those around you. To see that your world is made of love. And with your attention being placed on these new opportunities to see beauty, you spend less of your attention on the things that you find fearful. It's important to remember that all of your feelings have validity. Denying them causes imbalance, But to get to the root of the imbalance, you need to have a basic understanding of who you are. If you don't meditate, start. For it gives you the time to go within yourself, to discover in an experiential way, that you are the being who thinks thoughts, who feels feelings. You are the one who experiences events. But the events are not who you are, the thoughts are not who you are and the feelings are not who you are. You are the one who experiences them. This gives you a greater perspective on the game of life. As you explore who you are on an inner level, you begin to see how and why you have chosen the events that you have chosen to greet. I am Bittersweet Nightshade. My colour is gold, green. My energy vibrates quickly but gently out from my centre. Come to me when you need to know that you are more than the you who experiences physicality. Come to me when you need to remember the thoughts of the loving energy that surround you bring an experience of more loving energy around you. Take the time to go inward, to explore who you are. This time in self reflection is not self-recriminatory. It is expansive. It is warming, heartening, on every level.
Lily of the ValleyAlthough it may seems easy, it leads to a general and very deep dissatisfaction in life. With the discovery that you can act instead of react to the hurts and traumas in life, you give yourself a power that you might not have known you had. Some of the oldest sayings, oldest fables in your culture have led back to either biblical reference or a wise teaching from long ago. "Loving your neighbour as yourself". "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all". With the passage of time, many of these sayings have become interpreted in a way that they might not have originally been intended to be interpreted. "If you have nothing nice to say, say nothing at all," means "give yourself a minute to clear your energy if you can't see with a loving light". "Act instead of react," is what it means. Where some people in modern times might interpret such a saying to mean "Suppress your anger. Hold it back". I am Lily of the Valley. My energy soothes. It sings to those who walk by. It is bittersweet. Come to me when you need to cry out a hurt, for the sight and feeling of my blossoms can be tears for you. At the same time, experience the innate joy behind the tears, the innate bliss of being able to express with absolute freedom. Inhale my scent and know that you are much a creature of joy as you are of sorrow. When you come away from my energy, you will feel renewed. For this is what tears are for. They represent a cycle of renewal in your life. Sadness for the passing of an old part of yourself and an acceptance of something new in its place. I am Lily of the Valley. Listen to my bittersweet song and be renewed.
SunflowerAwaken to your cheerful nature. Notice your thoughts. When you come to realize that your emotions are heavy and weighing you down, look at what your thoughts have been up to in the last little while. And you'll see how your thoughts can contribute to your emotional state. As your emotional state gets more depressed, the thoughts become gloomier, too. And until you can stand back and observe this in yourself, it can become a downward spiral. While many people refresh themselves during their sleep at night, other people spend much of their night working through their daily activities. This break at night often will help cut the cycle and it's a chance for your higher self to show you what other choices you have. Awaken to your cheerful nature. Focus on the positive. Look around you and see the things you enjoy. Look around you and see the things you appreciate, all the things of beauty. Rediscover the pleasure in your life and as you experience it, experience it as though it was the first time you had. When you see an interesting cloud formation allow yourself to observe it for a moment with the same wonder and pleasure and curiosity that a child does. When you see a frog at the side of the road, or a pretty stone in the gravel, stop. Appreciate it's beauty before you walk on. As you walk down the street, notice how many people are smiling. Allow yourself to pay attention to the more positive things in your life. This does not make the negative things go away immediately, but with your own positive outlook becoming a habit, you will discover that the things that so annoyed you before don't have the power to annoy you any more. You barely notice them. Many you don't notice at all. This is not delusional. This is optimistic. I am Sunflower. My colour is light green and golden. My energy spreads evenly and slowly away from me. Come to me when you need to be reminded that light thoughts give way to light feelings and light feelings give way to light thoughts. Notice that I turn my head to face the sun. I bask in the light. Do the same for yourself. Bask in the light and the darkness will go unnoticed.
Apple Tree (About Fairies)Fairies do exist. They are a special energy that belongs to an individual or species of plants. If you see them as a tiny human form with wings, it is your own interpretation of what you see. As a human, it is easiest for you to picture in terms of what you are. A fairy is a consciousness, a bright, sparkling, laughing, dancing consciousness that flits from place to place, quicker than your eye can follow. So if you see a fairy as a tiny human shape, full of goodness, light and with wings to carry it from place to place, it is because you see this consciousness, see it's ability to shine, to flit, to move faster than time can allow and your senses interpret this consciousness in a way that humanity understands. Yes. There are fairies. And yes, they have had contact with human consciousness for aeons and continue to do do so. See with the eyes of a child. With the wonder, with the pleasure, excitement and joy of a child and you too, may get a glimpse of a tiny consciousness, brightly flitting from place to place out of the corner of your eye. I am the Apple tree. Approach me and all Nature with the wondrous eyes of a child. Leave your adult immersion in absolute physicality behind and approach us with joy and laughter, with pleasure and wonder. And don't be surprised at the things you perceive.
Blackberry CaneThose who approach me with love and honour the gift of fruit that I bring them are not hurt by my thorns. Yet they must beware of them. I care not who eats my fruit. My purpose is to bear the fruit and to have the fruit go in a circle of abundance. When my fruit goes uneaten, I will not flourish. I am Blackberry. My colour is rosy-red. My energy bounces and spreads smoothly across the landscape. I am blackberry.
FogWalk in light. Gather light to you as you go about your daily activities. Notice the light around you. The light of the wind. The light of the ground you walk on. The car you drive. Notice the light in the vegetation. In the people. In animals. As you go about your daily life. And draw the light to you. Allow yourself to draw in light as you go about your day for there is an infinite amount of light available to you. And the more light you draw in, the lighter you become. More easily able to fend off the energies that are not so light. To be able to resonate with the higher frequencies. To become lighter. This process can take a moment or it can take many lifetimes. But it is a process that will take place through the evolution of your soul. Open your eyes to the light that surrounds you. Open your eyes to the light that is already in your life and take the time to feel truly grateful for the blessings your life does hold. A positive outlook and a positive focus will lighten your life. I am Fog. My energy is the energy of water in another form. Think of me when you wish to imagine how abundant light is. See every droplet of water as one that contains a beacon of light for you to gather. Gather light from me knowing that I get mine from an infinite source. Gather light from me knowing that you are gathering from an infinite source.
BatWe are Bat. We move through the night with a grace and comfort that we do not use in the daylight hours. Our senses are geared to the more subtle aspects of night. Be like us. Come out in the night and allow your more subtle sense to perceive the world around you. This can give you insights that are not otherwise there during the day.
BearExpress yourself without apology. Be willing to make mistakes and learn from them. You are who you are. And that is good enough. We are Bear. Live our confidence, grace and power and you take on Bear energy. Be like us.
CardinalWe are Cardinal. Our energy is steady, clear and companionable. Feel our deep sense of belonging, of rightness and you rediscover your own. We are Cardinal. Be like us.
Chickadee
Deer MouseLook to Nature for signposts, glimpses of your soul's wanderings and you begin to see them as your soul does; not aspects to fear or judge, but aspects to explore. We are Deer Mice. Our energy is quick moving, lively, and yet we easily balance it with a calm, cosy warmth in our home environment. Look to us and others like us in the world around you to see what you explore. Look with wonder, with curiosity and recognize our quickness and calmness in your own nature.
FaeriesWe are not necessarily reluctant to make ourselves known to people. Nor are we actually wary, so much as we can only make ourselves seen to those who are willing to suspend their disbelief that we exist and those who show their willingness to see us as equals. Children do this naturally. We are Faeries. Our natures are bright, fun-loving and often carry the energies of specific personalities depending upon our work and the energies with which we work most closely. If you wish to open communication to us or you wish to open your vision to us, be like the children: open, loving, full of wonder, full of laughter and carrying a deep respect for us as equals. We are Faeries. Come play with us.
Redwinged BlackbirdSing with joy. Sing the song of your existence to all who might hear, including yourself and announce to the world what a joy it is to be here. We are Red-winged Blackbird. As you hear our distinctive song, raise your voice and speak or sing the joy of your existence.
A Spring
White PineYou have been trained since childhood to notice physical reality - to notice with your 5 senses and to sometimes acknowledge your sixth sense. This is where you will find us. Just beyond the periphery of your vision. Just out of hearing range. A touch so subtle, you will think you have imagined it. We urge you to explore these sixth senses. Explore them. Follow your feelings. Listen to your imagination. And you will be listening to us. For we are the deeper part of you. Walk beside us. Sit amongst us. And you will know that as our energy mingles with yours, your mingles with us. We are both enhanced by any loving contact. I am Pine tree. Walk beside me. Listen to my sounds. See beyond sight and hear beyond hearing. A magical world awaits. A world where it all makes sense. All is one. And all is love.
WindAs you begin to feel, at a gut level, your connection to the Earth, to the ground, to trees, wildlife, to rocks to water, you open yourself to greater understanding of your own nature and the nature of all around you. You begin to get a sense of who you really are. There is nothing to fear in this, for all your mistakes, problems, doubts or faults, you are, beneath it all, an expression of love. You are expressing your love in the best way you know how. The Earth is expressing herself in the best way she knows how and all the creatures and energies. Rest in your own self and your connection to the Earth and know that it will enrich you. It will widen your perspective. It will enhance you. I am the wind. Stop and feel me against your body and know that the energy we are mingle in that moment and disburse to be connected with all other energies in the Earth. A bit of you flies with me and a bit of me resides within you. Think of this. And your understanding begins to broaden.
The WoodsStop and ask them what they have to say Why do I hear this? What can I learn from this? Each is a gift. And each is unique. We are the Song of the Woods. Listen to our song at a physical level and you will find that you can hear greater understanding at a deeper level. We are the Song of the Woods. Be with us, and hear our gifts.
AntelopeStop and listen often, as we do, to what your surroundings have to say to you. Then once you have listened, you can move with the grace and speed of Antelope into your next activity. We are Antelope. Be like us.
Apple Tree Although we are very different than the energy of Granite, we are close enough in energy to perceive each other in our own ways and to interact with each other in our own ways. The others are in our awareness, if not in close proximity, then as far as energy patterns go. In human terms, under the umbrella of your Parent Soul, there are many like you, whose energies match very closely. And as such, when you greet them, it is with a sense of deep familiarity and intimacy. Whether or not this evolves into a working relationship or physical relationship in this lifetime is an other issue altogether. It is for each Soul to decide. Twin Rays, on the other hand, are energies that have divided and are exploring in their own way. Like identical twins who are born of the same physical stuff, that grow to be two distinctly different people, Twin Rays are born of the same energy stuff and grow off in their own directions. Their energies match so closely because of their recent Oneness, that they may find it difficult to know, at times, where one leaves off and the other begins. They are as though the Parent Soul has given birth to one energy that decides to split right then and there, and to move forward in different areas of understanding. Again this has little to do with your agreements at a Soul level, to meet or greet or be with each other in any particular lifetime. When you come across someone who may be a Twin Ray, it will be like meeting yourself. But this is very, very rare. You are far more likely to meet someone in your Soul Group than your Twin Flame. Regardless of the closeness or the distance apart, regardless of the contracts that you make or don't make with people who may be in your Soul Group, with a Soul Mate or with a Twin Flame, understand that any energy that you notice, that you see, or that you have in your life has great value to you. We may live under the umbrella of all Apple but we interact in our own unique Apple-ish way with everything that crosses our path. Our Apple-ness helps to define what crosses our path and all that crosses our path helps to define our Apple-ness. All that does not cross our path defines our Apple-ness as we define all that does not cross our path. In this moving energy you call life, enjoy it when you touch upon an energy that is familiar to you, but know that your life revolves around energies that are not that familiar. We are Apple.
CattailTo enjoy sitting in the shade of tree, floating in the water, walking in a forest or along a beach, feeling the gentle sprinkle of snow or rain on your face is to attune to us at a certain level. As long as you focus your attention on this with enjoyment, you will notice how your body, emotions and mind respond with an increased sense of relaxation, a calm, light demeanour and a tendency towards thoughts of support, happiness and even humour. Feel it thoroughly before you move away and you give yourself a gift beyond measure. We are Cattails. Be with us.
ElephantWhen we need to assert ourselves, we use the full force of our size, strength and vigorous nature. Yet our capacity for gentleness is just as large. We see subtleties and act upon them. We are Elephant. Be like us.
Elm TreeAbsorb it. Feel it fully for the time you allow yourself to sit in my shade. Notice it absolutely as you sit here. For it is in this noticing, in paying full attention to how this nourishes you, that you allow yourself to experience the full power of this exercise. When your alotted time has run out, notice for some time afterwards, how this calm balanced, peaceful energy lingers with you, how the stresses that had seemed so important don't carry the edge that they did before you allowed yourself the pleasure of enjoying my shade. I am Elm. You do not have to sit under my branches, you can sit in any area that has trees, flowers, rocks, water or any area that you find nourishing. If you like my energy, you can draw it from afar. Let yourself know, that like me, through any troubles, disease, and widespread disharmony, you can still find your centre, your balance, your peace. I am Elm. Be like me.
The MoonAs your experience in the world changes from moment to moment, seeing things from the light of the moon is very different than seeing them in the light o day. Yet thay are still the same things. They hold many of the same characteristics and energy. Yet when you see them in moonlight, you are seeing them in a different light. Let this be an understanding to you. All things around you seem different to different people. It depends upon the circumstances in their life, how they see a situation, as it depends on the circumstances in your life as to how you see a certain situation. Beneath it all is the basic truth of the event. You both experience it in different ways. See a tree in the moonlight. See the same tree in the sunlight and it takes on a totally different appearance. Seeing your life around you as a reflection of your beliefs can give you insight into what your beliefs are. Although I reflect the sun's light, I have a substance of my own. My energy belongs to me. And so it is with the things around you. Although they are a reflection of your light, they have their own energy. My gift to you is the gift of perspective. The gift of seeing change as something that is not to be feared, but to be worked with. My gift to you is to be able to see the world from a fresh perspective every single day, every single night. So that do not get stuck in sameness. So that you can see that truth is truth regardless of the perspective. So that you can see that one person's truth may be different than a different person's truth, yet the essence of what they see is the same. Learn to look more deeply into the truths you see around you. Understand that as you see a tree in the moonlight, there is more to that tree than you see at the moment. I am the Moon. Reflect on this.
Mourning DoveYou know you are in your centre when you notice the sounds of the birds around you, when you hear the water in the stream, when you smell the scent of the earth. You know you are in your centre when you feel the bite of a mosquito and yet feel no annoyance at the mosquito. You know you are in your centre when the thoughts, worries, problems and complaints about your day disappear because your attention is focused on your current circumstances. You know you are in your centre when you can feel the song of your soul moving through you, when you can feel it expand to include all about you - its note creating a harmony with all the notes of all the other forms of consciousness around you. You know you are in your centre when you have a feeling that you are in exactly the right place at exactly the right time, that all is as it should be. You know you are in your centre when you can feel your energy around yourself and when you can notice your energy drifting on the summer breeze, to mingle in part, with other energies. You know you are in your centre when your imagination takes flight and when you begin to hear the songs of the energies around you. We are Mourning Dove. Come back to your centre often, so that you can hear our song.
Pine TreeWe are Pine. Our energies are what they are, whether we cease to physically manifest or not, whether our physical structures become hurt or damaged or not. Although we grow with an intent to avoid damage, to become strong, and to manifest our beauty in the most extravagant way we can, we accept what comes into being with equanimity. As you come to understand that your energy lies in many dimensions and your physical manifestation of even your hurts is a creative, wonderful manifestation of who you are, you too, can begin to accept the discomforts and pains of life. We are Pine. Be like us.
Wild RaspberryAt the same time, more and more of them are coming to meet more and more of you who come to listen to Nature, to be with Nature and to relearn or rediscover within themselves an intent to be in communion with Nature, to learn from Nature, to provide for Nature and to see their own place in Nature. One day, a time will come when you can walk up next to the thicket and the birds will not flutter in alarm, bit instead will come closer with a greeting. They will be drawn by your love rather than repelled by your fear. We are Raspberry. We grow in abundance in wilder places where all can take advantage of our sweet fruit. Come and take what we generously give. But take it with thankfulness. Take only what you need. And these expresions of love are what will be carried in future generations of our fruit. We are Raspberry. Be with us, as with all other aspects of Nature with love, humility, generosity and honour. And those qualities will be what you receive in return.
Walnut TreeWe know that we are. We are certain that where we are is where we are supposed to be. We are sure that what we experience is an exploration in creative consciousness. We are certain of our ability to see ourselves as unique individuals, part of a greater whole. We are uncertain what comes before that or what comes after. Our greatest certainty lies in seeing what our experience is now. Do the same. Know where your certainties and uncertainties lie. Recognize that in the uncertainty of the events and circumstances that do colour your human existence, no amount of fear or worry about unpleasant circumstances will prevent them from occurring. See where your certainty lies. It lies in the song of your own being. It lies in your creative expression. And it lies in your inner knowledge that you are a unique expression of a greater whole. We are Walnut. Although there is no certainty in our physical life, there is great certainty in our understanding that we sing a song of creative intelligence. Be like us. Allow what can not be certain to not be certain. And focus instead, on the certainty that is.
WolfWhen we move beyond our need to be with others and find that we have obtained all the experience we seek, we will transform into a species or a non-species that reflects these new needs, desires and creative patterns. When you have learned all you came to learn, you will transform to a species or non-species that clearly reflects your new way of being - your new creative thrust. We are Wolf. Be with us.
BlueberryCome to us for these qualities, for the balance between grounding and spirit that we provide and for the opportunity to manifest a powerful creative expression of self. We are Blueberry.
BrambleOur understanding of all these issues is not conscious in the way that your thinking is a conscious activity, but rather in the way of sensing - of moving with what seems to be right. Our actions are not directed by thought so much as they are by this feeling-sense. We have not lost touch with how that feeling-sense connects us in a very real way with everything else around us. We have not lost the sense of oneness with all around us. We have not forgotten that our life in this reality is just one way in which we focus our attention. Our difference with you is that you tend to be so totally focused in this reality that you have forgotten who you are. We are Bramble. When you are with us, let it serve as a reminder to you that your connections to all that is around you are still very real, even if you have forgotten them. Let this be a comfort to you when you feel lost or alone or afraid. We are Bramble. Be with us.
DewWatch us then, as you step outside after a cool night. Notice how we fall from the trees, how we cling to the grass. Notice how we nourish the plants and trees and insects. And notice how we move. We touch many forms of consciousness. We are Dew. See yourself like us, touching all that you touch and affecting it or nourishing it in some way. See how you carry the energies of everything you have touched with you. And see how you move from place to the next and from one form to the next. We are Dew. Be like us.
The StreamWe move freely, showing our own nature - demonstrating who we are - without apology, without any desire to influence anything else, change anything else or be anything else. We do not aspire to greatness. We are already great. We do not aspire to influence others. For in our greatness, we see the greatness of others. We do not aspire to change anything else, for change moves, as we move down the stream bed. We are the Stream. Enter into our energies and feel the greatness of who we are resonating with the greatness of who you are. Be with us.
Summer RainAny time you find yourself thinking too many thoughts of an old attachment, falling back into old patterns, love yourself for it. see it as a gift. It is a gift from your soul to help you to see more clearly why your step forward is who you really are. It helps you examine your motives, your intent and define your commitment to taking a step forward. Examine that commitment. Review your feelings of the old way and the new way. And see yourself using your new feelings to banish the old habit, attachment, old way. Be like the snake or the lobster who sheds an old skin, an old shell to move on to a stronger skin, a bigger shell. Recognize that during that change, you are vulnerable. It is a part of the way you are. See your vulnerability as a fresh outlook, a fresh start, and know that your new skin, your new shell will protect you. Your new way of being will give you the light you need to protect yourself. I am the summer rain. I transform everything I touch. I make it wetter. I give it room to grow. During this time of rain, this time of growth, the things I touch may be more vulnerable, may be more open to damage. But it is a necessary change, for without me, all the things that need growth are not nourished through the change I bring them. They need me to continue their cycle. Be like the earth in a rain. Allow the summer rain to clear your old ways and old habits. Allow me to wash away your old attachments and know that tomorrow the sun will shine, that you will grow anew.
WhirlpoolAnything that comes through me is powerfully changed. For my energies compress those I draw in, into such a compact space compared to the space they had occupied, that it forces a change in the energy - in it's perspective, in it's placement, in it's arrangement. And when the energies come through the other side, in form they may not have changed much, but in essence they have changed a great deal. I am a symbol of the atoms that are the building blocks of all physical reality. Each energy that goes through those small spinning vortices is changed through the experience. Each moment of spin that your atoms take is a moment of change. Moving through change can be forceful or gentle, but whatever the catalyst, when you come through the other side of change, you are not who you were going in. The experience alters you. See this when you see me or a tornado or a whirlwind. Recall the the spin, the compression, the power of the atom and know that you are forever changing. ---- Your life does not just hold unlimited possibility. It is in the process of becoming them. And as each moment unfolds and each possibility achieved, you move forward to the next realm of delight and creative expression. We are Mourning Dove. As we sing our soft song, we are giving voice to the possibilities that have matured in us and the possibilities to come. We are Mourning Dove. Sing your own song of attained potential possibilities. Be like us.
I walk on land for short bits and I fly in the air. In comparing my progress in walking on land and flying in the air, walking on land seems to be more of struggle. It seems to be more difficult, awkward, ungainly. Yet comparing the two in the sense of awkwardness, discomfort or grace is not a correct comparison. On land, I am equally as graceful, even if my progress and movement is not as well suited to land walking as it is to flying. My progress on land is marked by the same power with which I use my physicality to fly. The power is extended in a different direction on land. When I roost at night, my power is at rest, for my energy is joining that of all Heron. See yourself in the same way. There are times when you feel awkward or clumsy or dissatisfied with your physicality. There are other times when your mind is engaged, when you are focused, that your body follows your mind without thought or reason. You walk in beauty without realizing the beauty you walk in. Note for yourself, that every moment you spend in physical form can be a walk in beauty. Focus on your task, disengage your mind from the physicality of it and allow your body to follow your natural inclination. In this way your walk becomes more graceful, your movements more fluid, your speech clearer. You express your true nature. To take this all a little farther, consider walking in beauty in an emotional form. Walking in beauty in this case, is the ability for you to again focus on your task. Allow all other extraneous emotions and thoughts to fall away as you focus fully on your task. Keep your attention focused and you walk in beauty. I am Blue Heron. Be like me and walk in beauty.
It sings to you and you sing to it. Feel your delight, your interest and your enthusiasm as you stand in your garden, near special trees or as you listen to the birds. We are Sparrow. We carry your song.
Your world around you is the same as the surface of my water. It reflects the state of your thoughts and feelings. It reflects reality, truth. Yet it is not the reality or truth itself, but just the reflection. When you die and the physical world around you disappears from your existence, realize that it is just the reflection that has disappeared. The reality that it reflects is still there. So recognize your world for what it is. See it as you see my surface. One that is capable of reflecting great truths, and one that rides on the surface of many other fine realities and qualities. But recognize as well, that it is just a mirror and not the reality that it reflects.
We are Bullrush. In the chaotic placement of all life in this area of the pond, there appears to be no sense, no meaning to it. yet within this lack of meaning lies a richness and diversity that could not be found in an area that was too symmetrical, too orderly. The order here lies in our lack of symmetry, our ability to support uncounted forms of consciousness within a small area. It takes precision and it takes an ability to move with change, to adapt to new circumstances and see where the beauty lies within them. I am Bullrush. Be like this careless scattering of me at the edge of the pond. Allow your lack of precision to express your creativity, your adaptation and your intrinsic beauty.
By tapping into my energy, you are showing that you care. You are showing that you believe I am more than the physical specimen you see standing at the side of the road. Walk in wonder. For each specimen that stands at the side of the road has a special energy to offer you. Acknowledge your love for them as you walk by and the benefits you derive will equal the benefits we derive from you.
Meditate on this and you will notice how your heart expands, how your sense of wonder expands and you begin to feel a deep connection to all things. We are Reeds. Expand your boundaries to include the entire world and more, and you begin to get an image of who you are. You include us. We include you. We are Reed.
We are Crocus. Our colour is golden yellow. Our energy spreads out in white expanding spheres. It is a warming, gently smiling energy. Let our appearance in the Spring serve as a reminder to you that there are seasons in everything. Live each breath as though it held a year's worth of living within it, for within each breath, you can find a year's living. I am Crocus. Smile with me.
As you worry a problem back and forth, back and forth, much as I swim back and forth in the pond, you blaze a trail of your own worry. As soon as you step out of that trail, you have the opportunity to explore different areas, different solutions and different perspectives. I am Beaver. View your self with compassion rather than anger or frustration at your inability to deal with some of your problems, and you give yourself an opportunity to open to fresh solutions.
