"I'm marching in the Anzac Day Parade"
"Really. Where?"
"In the City - down the middle of Swanston Street over to the War Memorial."
"Gosh - ok then"
Since he was 13 years old, my son has marched at the Anzac Day Parade, beating a drum, with his HighSchool Band.
Now 12 years later, he's still playing.
(With a slight pause - for those couple of years that was Covid!)
This year, he doesn't have to march. But he's still Beating his drum. With a Band at the War Memorial, along with his High School Band Teacher!
How Special is that?!
And each year,
I buy a Poppy, or a badge or a Pen, whichever takes my fancy at the time.
But, this year, I started to reflect....
Poppie's stand for the blood shed and many lives lost during the wars over the years.
Red is the colour of blood, passion and heat.
War has been a part of our lives for so many centuries and countries. It seems like an Old way of doing things. But, sadly it's still being used as a force of power.
We have taken this war energy within us, we've all experienced it in some form or another. At a physical, emotional and ancestral level.
However, through these wars, I feel we're discovering the need to work from our Hearts.
Now, maybe more than ever, we are needing ways to heal ourselves of these wounds. Ways to repair and clear these wounds.
Green, in energetic and esoteric teachings, is the colour of the Heart. (Along with Pink)
The heart is considered the bridge between our lower selves and our higher selves. It's the core energy centre of our body.
Green is also a Healing Colour.
We intuitively know this...
* Going for a walk in the forest is calming and relaxing
* Green foods are considered nourishing and healing
* Green plants around the house or indoors are uplifting and purify the air
* Green herbs are cleansing eg; Parsley
* Green Crystals are calming and centering
* Our cleaning products contain Eucalyptus or Pine
Just visualising sending green light or energy to someone is very healing too.
I encourage you to incorporate some, or all of these things to help heal and repair the wounds of our hearts.
As Dr Mikio Sankey - guru and developer of the Esoteric Acupuncture system I use. You know that Sacred Geometry Diamond Energy treatments I give you at times...
He says "Eat your Greens".
Because, all those Esoteric pattern treatments help us reconnect and heal our hearts, and obviously so do the Greens!
To help you include more greens, I've included my favourite Pesto recipe below...
Enjoy.
May you continue to dance to the beat of your own Drum! (With a little help from the Heart).
Remember,
Be true to you!
