EP 149 A Little Bit Afraid

12m · Know You Are Earth · 13 Jan 19:28

A little bit afraid. A wind is coming. A wind that will clean and strip bare. A wind that will knock down. Sitting in the cave, waiting for it to get dark, I had the feeling that a boar might come for a bath. I was a little bit afraid. The wind is coming like a wave. Share with your friends!

From seed to tree to dead branch to mushroom to soil to grass. Every single atom is on a constant journey of transformation. From the colour in an insect's wing, to the energy that creates sound. And there is a Wisdom, a wild Wisdom, to this immense, abundant diverse creation. It is the Wisdom that has built you. The very structure of your bones, your muscles, your organs. That is the same Wisdom that creates all Life. It grow your bones, as it grow the forest. It flows in your blood as it flows in the stream. And it sings in your Heart, as it sings in the song of the birds. That's my faithful helper Mr McNookster over there in the stream. As we remember, truly remember, that we are part of Nature, which means, part of the endless cycle of Life after Life, the endless transformation, it means we can never leave even when we die and we have always been here as part of one Life. And this is the reality. This is the truth. Let that penetrate your Heart and enable you to relax into the security of always being carried by Life. We live in challenging times, but turning again to our true Nature, is a doorway into the real Magic that is ever present. It is the container of Joy in which everything else rests.

EP 151 Woodpecker Party!

Woodpecker party! Welcome to the Woodpecker Party! From where I’m sitting, I can hear at least five different woodpeckers. I hardly dare speak. What an incredible difference in sound there is now even compared to last week. It's not even an Imbolc yet. Listen To Woodpecker Party Here! Imbolc is the seasonal festival that falls between Winter Solstice and Spring Equinox. It marks the time when the first stirring starts to reveal itself. The snow drops, the buds getting really big. What comfort there is in these cycles. We are not on a linear trajectory where we have failed to live up to our full potential as humans. This is part of a spiral. With no beginning and no end. The bushman of the Kalahari say that when you notice a certain animal, its song or its track, a thin thread is created between you. As you notice again and again the same animal, the thread becomes thicker and stronger creating a link between you. You know of each other. You recognize each other. And this is like a strand in our web of connecting to all Life. A very tangible one, two at a time then. Is there a bird near you that you know and that knows you? This is Know You Are Earth. Strengthening our bonds of connection to reawaken the ancient memory that we are part of Nature. Thank you for your donation!

EP 150 Rain on the Yurt

Rain on the Roof. I wonder if you know what this sound is? It is pouring with rain and it is the sound of the rain on the yurt roof. Beautiful human creatures we are, growing out of this planet with our magnificent bodies and minds, and incredible power of the imagination. Everything we have created began with an imagination. In these times of apparent challenge, we have this wonderful opportunity to use these challenges to fuel us to focus our minds on what we would prefer.   Share with your friends!

There is a gift waiting for you Every single disaster we hear on the news or on a scientific report , can be taken as a resource, as a treasure to remind us again and again and again to use this power unique to humans to focus, not just with our minds, but with our feelings, on the world our hearts know is possible. This incredible potential within us all. And there goes the rain cloud. We are just left with the drips from the trees. Can you hear them? As we grow on the surface of this planet, all that we do in being part of the changes of Earth, is just part of the endless changes of Earth. There is this paradox isn't there? On one hand there is this world we know is possible, that we feel in our Hearts. The potentila of the human being. But to get to that place, to really reach that place, I believe we have to face the death, have a near death experience of this world as we know it. As we face full on, that fear and grief and not knowing and surrender into accepting the never ending change rather than fighting against it or clinging on, to hold everything stable, then we are transformed, and then we will create the world that our Hearts know is possible. Know you are earth. Know you are rain. Know you are wind and Know you are fire, and Know you have been here forever and will be here forever. What a wonderful joy and incredible awe this gives us! What lightness and brightness to this temporary life! It is possible right now, and in that lightness and brightness, we discover we are already here! We are already in the world that our hearts know is possible. May our minds expand and warp away from our normal understandings until we find joy in each changing moment.

There is a gift waiting for you Although we still have a lot of Winter to go, already the birdsong has a different flavour in its sound as imperceptible to us, the days already begin to lengthen. There is a promise in their song that Spring will return, but it is not yet time. There are more dreams to be dreamt. My name is Maryjane. I am sitting in a forest of fog. the soil here is still soft, although outside, in the field, it is iron. Welcome to this year. May the dreams of infinite possibility implanted in our Hearts and minds be made manifest in our speech and actions. May these sounds of nature remind us that we are part of all Life.
