Happy Mother's Day!
Immediately, I think of Matreshka
dolls when Mother's Day comes around. I am a Mother, I have a Mother and
a Grandmother and a Greatgrandmother and so it goes, on and on. To top
it off, we have a Mother Earth who best of all, gives us ongoing,
unconditional, forgiving type of Goddess Love Energy. We are so lucky!
This Mother's Day, when you show your appreciation, remember to go
out upon the earth, into the forests, to the beach, up a mountain trail,
or on to a lake and offer your joy of life to our beautiful Mother
Earth. This is the best way to send your appreciation to her. She really
does feel your love when you express it.
Thank you!

TRAVEL UPDATES: FRANCE
This coming Fall, we
are offering two journeys, one to France and the other
to the Andes, where the Feminine energy flows out of our
earth in a way that is easy to experience and
understand. Why is this important during this year,
2012?
We have lived for many centuries in a world
ruled by males, between the Vatican and our governments
that have been run mostly by men, driven by a need to
dominate via the war machine. The time has come for us
to find a balance between the masculine and feminine
energies. In order to come more into the heart space, it
behooves us to
visit places that carry a strong force of
the feminine nature. The sweet energy held in these
lands helps us to remember and embrace the spirit of
unconditional, Mother Love which is essential for our
spiritual evolution at this time.
In the
Languedoc Region of France, for example, where Mary
apparently spent time teaching, it is easy for our
hearts to feel the gentle, nurturing love that is there
in the land and in the churches. Mary means "Mother
Ray." By gazing at the numerous statues and
paintings of
Mary that are in the little chapels, we feel her leading
us to the altar of our own heart and our own divinity.
This is how we come to understand the heart opening
power of divine grace that occurs when we give love and
mercy to others. One of the many roles of the divine
Goddess energy is to assist us in preparing for the
spiritual path and the initiations that are part of it.
We invite you to join us as we journey to visit the
special lands in France where the feminine energy of the
ancient Goddess and Mary will help us to have those
important experiences of Initiation. What we have found
is that even walking on the lands there, the body, mind
and spirit directly absorb the transformative, sweet
vibrations from the Earth. Please join us for these
special experiences in France. More information here:

TRAVEL
REPORT: PERU
Having just returned from a transformational journey to
Peru and Bolivia, I feel overwhelmed with all that I
have to share. Thinking about my time there, I will
start with the most convincing, basic fact. The Andes
Mountains hold the feminine energy of the planet. This
concept was expressed by the Dalai Llama many years ago.
Visiting there however, gives one a first hand
realization of the truth of it, since it can be directly
seen and felt.
The Andean people hold “Pachamama”,
the feminine energy of our Mother Earth dear to their
hearts and consistently speak of her with great
reverence. While on the trail to the Sun Gate at Machu
Picchu, I felt compelled to visit a massive rock just
off the trail. Sitting in front of it, a kind of
unconditional, motherly love swept over me. Emanating
from this rock was a misty blanket of peace that wove
its comfort around me. Then, I heard its gentle,
welcoming song. Back on the trail, I asked a local
worker what was up with the amazing rock. ”Oh”, he said
in a reverent whisper, “that is Pachamama.”
The
feminine energy is quite evident with the people living
in the Andes. The hard working women are proud to dress
in their colorful skirts and hats, whether they are
headed to market in town or out working the fields. They
are always beautifully dressed with piles of petticoats
under their skirts. The harmonizing key however, is
found in a balance of
energies, where the men do their
part as well, so the families work together. For
example, even today, the men plow the fields and the
women plant the seeds. While staying on the Island of
the Sun, we watched in amazement as both the husband and
wife got to scrubbing the sheets together in one big
outdoor washbasin.
Andean people participate
directly with Mother Earth. Families spend their days
out in the fields plowing, planting, harvesting, or even
spinning wool. They are content to enjoy the day sitting
and working on the Earth, watching their animals and
fields, while the children play. It is a beautiful life
which results in a deep love for their Pachamama. This
is how they take care of our Earth. We owe them a great
debt for their guardianship of Mother Earth.
The
Elders carefully prepare offerings of love and
thankfulness to Pachamama. These are often buried into
the Earth, heartfelt gifts of beauty, purity and
sweetness that our Earth receives with gratefulness.
We
would do well to learn from these people of the Andes
how to more honestly revere our Earth. Mother Earth
would appreciate any intention of tender thoughtfulness,
consideration and thanks from us. Why not?
Our
Mother Earth gives us everything, free for the taking:
fresh water to drink, delicious food to eat, clean air
to breathe, purifying fires, deep oceans, high
mountains, lovely flowers, birds, animals, and
everything we need to thrive. She is so grand and
generous! Practice at least a thought of love for our
Mother Earth each day. The Spirit of the Earth will feel
it, appreciate it and you will be blessed for it.
Thank
you,
Tina
SUPER FULL MOON
Full Moon
Gathering, Cinco de Mayo
We formed a circle around the fire and the
wind stirred the sparks as we all rekindled our zest for life. It is said that
Wesak is that time at the Full Moon of May in which the Christ gathers the
entire Spiritual Hierarchy together in meditation to invoke the forces of
Shambhalla. The Buddha, representing those forces, appears and blesses humanity.
We wanted to bring the cosmic forces down to earth with our love. So, after
calling in the Directions, we had a short meditation about this and each of us
took pure white flowers and offered them, with our love to the Earth for this
special ceremony.
Lee channeled in the Angels of the Moonbeams and their
message was the following: "We are the Moon Beams, bringers of light in the
darkness and reflectors of the light within each of you. As we partner with the
Beloved Sun Angels, we share the Divine Light between the worlds of light and
dark. Both energies are needed for nourishment and support of all in your world.
As the MoonBeams we bring our light to you in rays of energy that can guide
you in times when you cannot see as clearly, both in a physical sense and
inwardly. Call upon us to illuminate your path, as we gladly share our Light
with all."
Afterwards we feasted on a beautiful spread of delicious
Mexican food to which everyone had contributed. Outside, the lightening lit up
the peripheral sky and it was quite a magical night. To top it off, we showed
the slide show of the amazing trip to Peru and Bolivia that Tina had recently
returned from in preparation for the Adventurous Spirit Travel journey scheduled
for the very end of October, 2012. Hope you join us next time.
Till next month,
