Beneficiaries of the Earth

The Earth is such a rich and vibrant being.

And, when I am with her, her beauty, joy, wholeness is so resonant, so complete.
It takes little to feel that.
She is rich, and vibrant,
and gives so many cherished gifts of that resonance and beauty.
If we but be with her, be still, listen, and open to receive.
We have shared stories from decades of work with the Heart of the Mother.
She has given so much.
So many precious gifts.
Take time with Her.


There is so much to hear, to learn, to receive.
Her gifts are magnificent, plentiful.
Her allies are countless, and will work with you.
She can remind you of who you are, and of your place here.
Do you remember?


Are you ready to receive?

The mysteries that have been unveiled.
The revelations unfolding.

Just from what I have said, being present with Her, being in Sacred Resonance with Her.
Can you enter Her state, Her presence, with Reverence?
 Do so, and name yourself, from your highest state of knowing; and state why you have come, or what you would care to receive, and what you would do, in service to others, with those gifts.

Then, literally sit back and listen.
She can bring so many gifts to us, if we but enter into resonance, reverence with her.


We, indeed are the beneficiaries of a sacred life, should we wish to live it, to restore our place here in heaven on Earth.

I am reminded of countless stories, but I am moved to share one of them with you today. I was greatly reminded of most recently as one of staff posted this video of that day. 
I do hope you enjoy the story, and that it may bring meaning of value to you and your lives, in your journey upon this sacred Earth.

I know not all of us have this level of encounter with the Earth and her grand mysteries or allies.


But, she does, and shall speak to each of us, in our own way, that has meaning for us in our lives, today, if we but give time to her, rest in her bounty, and give room to listen and receive her message s and gifts. And the more we explore this journey, in a sacred way, with Her, the more likely she is to collaborate with us, and reveal more and more, the Hidden Treasures of Her Heart.

We were on a sacred tour, guided by the essence and spirit of 3 sacred mountains, and 3 sacred lakes that form a perfect star tetrahedron, here in Vermont and New Hampshire.

It is an amazing formation of the masculine sky/mountain beings and feminine earth/lake beings, spirits, or apus of the mountains and lakes. Apu is the Peruvian word for the spirits of the allies of the Earth.

The experiences and revelations that have occurred in our time in these practices, truly are well beyond the normal range of belief, experience, or understanding.

To start, with how these relationships of mountains and lakes were brought to my awareness….
but that is a story for another day.

In one such tour, the medicine of spider began speaking to us, literally, in a life-or-death situation the very first day of the tour.

Every day spider came with medicine and messages.

The next day, for instance, a giant white spider, a species we had never seen before in the years of work in these sacred sites, landed on Dorothy's third eye in the middle of a practice in one of the ancestral stone chambers.

The night before one of the most climactic days of the work, my guides came to remind me of the primary practice we were to do, fundamentally collaborating with the Apus of the mountains and lakes in creating a giant prayer wheel through the art of the generating a toroidal field from the geometries of a star tetrahedron, and the counter-rotation of masculine and feminine principles within the field.

The guides said, when you have completed the work, place your awareness here, at the top point of the field, and 'drink of the pure nectar of life.'

This was the gift offered our group for the beauty and service of the work we were doing, as they shared with me.

We were approaching one of the bodies of water to work with. We were approaching the lake through a natural wildlife preserve, which was also a loon sanctuary. The Wildlife Department of the State of Vermont had given special permission to enter the preserve during nesting season, but warned us not to enter a sanctuary if we heard the loons calling. They were having to renest after loss of their first clutch, so it was a sensitive time for them.

We just got to the sign of the boundary of that sanctuary, when we say covering the path a giant spider weaving, not a web, but a weaving as if covering the entire 'doorway' to enter the sanctuary. It was the thickest and largest weaving I had ever seen by a spider. I was a bit astonished, and realizing it was likely yet another sign from the medicine of spider. In indigenous traditions, the medicine of spider may mean that which shows us the weaving of and interconnectedness of all things, to the protector and keeper of knowledge. Fascinating, this medicine, within the context of this story, as we were in sacred sites revealing ancient, ancient stories and wisdom.

Yet, the brush was so thick on each side, there was no way through, or around. For a moment some part of me had considered brushing the weaving away, but, no, this is spider speaking so strongly and profoundly to us, here, again. Let me take a moment to listen.

I turned to the group and said, it looks like we'll have to find another point to do this practice.
At this very moment, the loons sounded, confirming, yes, you must not go past this point.
There was no evident way through the woods without the threat of the brush scratching the group. Their safety was my responsibility.

Then, one at the back of the group said, I think we can make it through here, in an area I could not see. I went to look, and sure enough, just through this opening in the brush, lay two large triangular stones, laying on top of each other. They formed as much of a 'perfect' star tetrahedron you could imagine two large naturally formed stones resting in the woods could possibly form. This, in itself, was a strong message from the heart and wisdom of the Earth.

Here, for certain, was the altar for our work to initiate the 'spinning of the wheel.'

We laid out our mesas, creating an altar (a mesa is a medicine bundle one carries in Andean wisdom ways). We were about to begin our ceremony when some form of apparition appeared just beyond us. It was a shimmering silver lighted almost ghostly figure just above and in front of us. We saw a sheer body of sparkling diamond light, undulating in the shadows of the forest.
There were gasps of 'what is that?'
It was not understandable to me, what I was seeing.
It made no common sense.


All I could imagine in the first moments of seeing it, was that it was a spirit manifesting into form, so I bowed in reverence, but wanted to see.

We, as a group ventured closer, just beyond the formation of these two stones.
And, behold, shimmering in a single shaft of light through the forest canopy, was a spider 'web' we had never seen before, spun into a 'globe', or orb, forming pretty closely at least the upper half of tube torus if you will, with a pure, small white luminescent figure at the northernmost point, or 'pole' of that globe, where a 'bead' has also been formed.

As we got closer to investigate, it turned out, that white spot was a great white spider, the same species from before, which, again we had never seen before in these woodlands of Vermont, in decades of work in these sacred places. It was resting right atop the form of the half globe.
It took a woman in our group to announce, and help me understand, the half orb, undulating in the soft breeze, was in the shape of a breast. And, the spider, not only spinning this orb, had spun a 'nipple' at the top of this orb, upon which it was resting. It was unbelievable. In the short video, you hear us gasping in amazement and admiration of what we were seeing.
Here, in the mystical ways of Mother Nature, we had been guided by her medicine allies to a special rock formation that could only be interpreted as the sacred geometry we were working with, here, in this 8-day journey coursing over 500 miles of sacred landscape.

It was not hard to interpret this as the 'breast' of the mother, with the spider at the nipple, reminding us, very literally, of the guidance of the evening before, to, after our practice, rest our awareness in this top part of the orb we were creating, and 'drink of the pure nectar of life.'
It truly was a gift of the Mother, acknowledging that guidance, directly; giving thanks to us for our service in this work, to sing prayers of creation, seeds of the Matrix of Heaven on Earth, as we were told, into this spinning prayer wheel, in alliance with the allies of sacred Sky and Earth guiding us in this work.

It was the wheel of "Ayni," the Andean way of understanding one of the fundamental laws of Creation, reciprocity; that what is given, will be given in return, in like kind.
Our gifts as healers, as sacred ceremonialists, will be returned from the very heart and fabric of Creation, though perhaps in ways we do not expect or understand.


Others call this the Wheel of Karma; there are many ways of understanding and interpreting the Laws of the Universe.
As you watch this short video, you'll hear Dorothy singing a song of gratitude, that just heightened our experience there.

At some point, we went back to the stones to complete our ceremony.
What was most fascinating, that as we finished, and looked up, it was as if the orb had disappeared. From closer inspection, we realized, simply, the shaft of light pouring through this one small opening in the canopy of the forest, had moved, with the angle of the sun. Had we not arrived when we did, we would not have seen this spectacle of creation, or have the rich experience of gratitude for and of the Earth we had.

This is how the Earth speaks, and the power of the present moment, when we are attuned to it, and open to receive the precious gifts of the Earth, and the Universe, for that matter.

It is but one of the many mysteries revealing itself in our Earth work of 'Awakening the Dragon,' spinning the "prayer wheel" of these sacred mountains and lakes, who live in sacred relationship, and have for some time, who awoke us to this relationship, and invited us in to do this sacred work with them. We have done prayer service around the world such as this, from Egypt and Tunisia to the Alps of Europe, the stone sites of Great Britain, Brazil, Peru, Mexico, and more.


As it turns out, there were many others of the higher realms explicitly driving this practice, as they are each time we come into reverential states to do such service. I find it is true for each of us, ready to truly tune in, and authentically give to the Earth, and open to her prayers.


And, this continues to this day, bringing gifts, unfolding mysteries, sharing their mysteries.
It is why I am writing you now.


Just today I was walking the land, on this day nearing the spring equinox.
 The beauty of the Earth was speaking to me.

I entered prayer and sanctuary with the Earth and this land we rest upon, the sacred Stone Circle we built with their help and permission, and there, in the distance, my 'grandfather' Ascutney, one of the high Apus of this region, one of my principal guides in this work I am speaking of, and one of the 3 mountains of this special relationship who began this journey with me, guided me into understanding of it all.

There he lives, on the distant horizon.

I called his spirit, and invited him into the land, and into the Circle, here, asking that he re-awaken, re-invigor it, with his spirit, in this special time of the year. This re-emerging of the living energies of the Earth, as winter is put to sleep once again. I spoke with the Stones as well.

In this time, what are you doing, what can you do, to bring forward the Seeds of Creation in your life? 
To manifest, create with us, those doing this sacred work across the planet; what are you doing to fulfill your part in this all?

It can be as simple as treating each other with kindness in your heart, wishing the best for others in their life and processes, sharing your own ways of wisdom with others where you can, respectfully listening or allowing others to be, where you can't.


Certainly many of us feel a stronger calling, or passion for the work with or in service to others, to the Earth herself.



Come, join with us, in this sacred work.

We welcome you into our community of friends.


Many blessings to all,
May the Gifts of the Earth unfold before you, and in your Heart.

Just be with Her,
Listen,
And don't be afraid to ask.
She just may respond with her own gifts for your heart.
