Elementals and Embracing Nature

image

One of the pictures that has been coming up in my meditations, is the image of Nature being cared for by the Elemental energies – for grass, plants, and trees; and for soil, and for water, and for environment.  Each Elemental is a specialist, and does what is needed to keep things moving forward.  This process involves creating and letting die where the change is needed. 

Some of the Elementals are frustrated because humans think that they know more than the Nature Guardians, the the humans interfere in what should be the natural progression of a species.  One of the Elementals talked about the modification of plants – GMO – and how that upsets the blueprint for the plant.

Another Elemental talked about the human need to “preserve” a plant or tree that was scheduled, by blueprint, to die off, to make way for its next adaptation.  

In life, we learn that we must let things go to get new things.  We learn that cycles are natural and that fighting them by trying to preserve what is, becomes an exercise in self defeat.  We learn not to be too attached to anything.

My response to the Elementals was that each person needs to go through a learning and growth stage.  If the people that want to do the preserving are in that stage, then, it is part of what they need to understand, and we need to let the learning unfold.

Many blessings,

Autumnal Equinox 2024

Autumn has arrived and today we are in balance between the dark and the light.  It is a beautiful feeling to have come through the spring and summer with lots of vegetables from the garden.  It is a time to celebrate with friends and family and ask for an easy winter to come.

A Prayer For Autumnal Equinox

Mother/Father God, Universe.
Please guide us through the next six months 
So that we walk through each day with grace and ease and
With harm to none.

Please bless the food to nourish us and to keep us strong,
Allowing no illness in our lives 
And giving us strength to help others - humans and animals.

As I wander to different places, please support me in spreading
Peace and Kindness to all.

Aho.

Blessings,
Judy

Stag Speaks To Me

image

 

As I was walking through the start to the woods, my dog and I were startled by a very large white tailed stag (deer) jumping out of the brush and grass, and bounding past us.  My dog couldn’t even bark!  It seemed like the deer jumped out of a hole in the sky!

When he was safely past us, he stopped and looked at us.  His eyes were very large and dark, and to me, seemed so full of wisdom.  

I heard him speak in my head.

“Child, I greet you.  You need not be afraid.  These things I must tell you.  You and others, must set boundaries of what is your territory.  You must be able to define and protect it.  It is a time for gathering up family.  Find those that you trust, and keep them close.  Those that stand alone will have the hardest time adjusting to all that is new.  Learn how to jump from thing to thing, while keeping the thoughts of what has been very alive.  And, look to what is ahead.  Jumping from one problem to another is not a solution.  All things are corrected where they began, not down the road.”

And then he bounded away.

Blessings,

Judy
