BLESSING FOR PEACE

As the fever of day calms towards twilight
May all that is strained in us come to ease.

We pray for all who suffered violence today,
May an unexpected serenity surprise them.

For those who risk their lives each day for peace,
May their hearts glimpse providence at the heart of history.

That those who make riches from violence and war
Might hear in their dreams the cries of the lost.

That we might see through our fear of each other
A new vision to heal our fatal attraction to aggression.

That those who enjoy the privilege of peace
Might not forget their tormented brothers and sisters.

That the wolf might lie down with the lamb,
That our swords be beaten into ploughshares

And no hurt or harm be done
Anywhere along the holy mountain.

Their list of sins is long. We can only heal and move forward by naming this evil. Looking it square in the face.

It goes back to our roots. This is our nation’s shadow.

We all have to work together to create a better path moving forward.

Easing into this New Year with rest, recovery and quiet. We’re still in the year of the Wood Snake 🐍 until February 17, so tending to remaining shedding and releasing what we don’t want to carry forward. We will also need energy to embrace the Fire 🔥 Horse and take sacred action when the time comes. Release, recharge, restore. We have some powerful days coming up for noting and writing down goals to let them begin percolating as we shift into January Capricorn ♑️ season.

The holidays can be beautiful and brutal, magical and depressing, depending…the holidays can be times of festivities and cheer, loneliness and heartbreak. And you can “love it and hate it at the same time.”

We live in duality. It all can be real and true depending on the moment.

We are here to be fully human and our feelings and experiences are valid, especially in these surreal times. 🙏🏻❤️🎄❄️✨

A holiday reminder to take in the sweetness of the Earth 🌎💚❤️and her changing beauty while embracing these times of chaos and change. Focus on who and what matters most, and it’s ok to not do everything. 🙏🏻🤗🎄❄️

From President Obama: “Michelle and I are heartbroken by the tragic passing of Rob Reiner and his beloved wife, Michele. Rob’s achievements in film and television gave us some of our most cherished stories on screen. But beneath all of the stories he produced was a deep belief in the goodness of people—and a lifelong commitment to putting that belief into action. Together, he and his wife lived lives defined by purpose. They will be remembered for the values they championed and the countless people they inspired. We send our deepest condolences to all who loved them.”

A theme I’ve been picking up on recently, has been about the topic of nature spirits or the Fae needing crystals, energy, or warmth from humans to give them vitality, or that nature spirits here in the west have been dormant and need humans to help revitalize them.

That has not been my personal experience, and what I’ve learned over the years of studying with many indigenous elders is that making offerings, such as to***co, or some other treats, or so that we can build, or rebuild respectful, and humble relationships with nature spirits, and places in nature. It’s more for us than it is for them.

Humans have done a lot to destroy the natural world, and have distanced ourselves, and separated ourselves from our nature relatives.

They don’t need us to give them energy for them to communicate. They may just choose not to communicate with us because of our history.

The idea that humans need to give nature spirits, something for them to be vital, or to be able to communicate, comes from our colonizer heritage.

However, taking the time, to build respectful relationships, with spirits of nature, trees, plants, mountains, lakes, rivers can be extremely rewarding when approached with humility and respect. 🌿💦🌲
