Cardinal Whistles Wind Chimes of Virtuosity

Cardinal appears in our world today
As Father Sun just revealed a peak light experience
on a waning Summer Solstice

A Full Buck Moon runs through the sky trails ahead

Do you need a strong moral compass or a
yoke tattooed around your neck to be true to yourself?

Yang heats up his fires during the summer months
It is a time for outer growth and an action-oriented lifestyle

And yet, we are heading downhill now until light and dark
are equal again on Fall Equinox in September . . .

Can you sense seismic shifts of
Climate Change across the fruited plain?

As the world turns, may we remember the softness of
yin’s hands calm the nerves of anxiety ridden war mongering

May meditation on Cardinal’s whistles blow in the winds of change
that resonate with crystalline clarity in Mother Earth’s heart beat

See you up the trails,

Opossum Gets Skunked

Opossum and Skunk are sensible reminders for mindfulness
in the areas of respecting personal boundaries

How many of us say we want to be seen and heard?
But when push comes to shove, that desire does take magical wizardry
In the sense of spiritual intention and commitment . . .

It’s easier to manipulate others and fool yourself into buying
into the smoke and mirrors of a manmade fun house

On the other hand, playing games without even realizing it
is just part of learning how to be human

Ignorance may be bliss, but we might as well
see the eminence front for the put-on as it is

The spiritual journey is a playground . . .

You have an opportunity to flirt with growing pains
but hopefully without choosing strategic diversions that bring on more suffering

Consider listening instead to internal sound waves encouraging
you to hear amplified acoustics of your personal growth

Do this without second guessing your intuitive knowing . . .

Cross over the fence to the love and truth
of your soul’s naturalistic development

Even in the gravely sobering realm of stoic seriousness
There is a court jester that plucks at your heartstrings

How do we make friends with that?

On this Father’s Day, may we know welcome the peak sunlight
of yang’s outward movement . . .

But let us remember the balance of the sun and the moon –
equality between masculine and feminine energies are always in flux

Picture Nature’s theatrical revelation of equal energetic alignment
on Spring and Fall Equinoxes

Sunlight hits its zenith this week on Summer Solstice . . .

And yet, dark days are simmering within inner cauldrons
Until reaching their summit on the forthcoming Winter Solstice in December

Till the next trailhead junction,

Butterfly Magic and Rising Spirits with A Full Strawberry Moon

A Full Strawberry Moon is rising in our skies this week . . .

Communicative powers of Butterfly’s sociability can empower
you speak your truth with a floating gentleness

Look at how butterflies flap their wings effortlessly . . .
How do they inspire a Tsunami or travel over 2000 miles?

Let the fruits of this Strawberry Full Moon and Butterfly
Inspire you to remember a playful, light-hearted sense of detachment
in your soulful experiences, while awakening the energy of a mythical quest

Like shorelines, dusk, and dawn,
we are living in transformational tides of transition . . .

The Age of Aquarius has shifted from winking and blinking into a
high-octane revelation of a New World arriving full steam ahead . . .

But the Old Guard is afraid to let go of their grip on their view
that Earth is a playground for an entitled few with powers of position

Climate Change, Weapons of Mass Destruction, and puppet masters
Sound the alarm, and hit the panic button for many

There is a reality to buying into an apocalyptic mind-set!

But choosing to dig deep and focus on the reality of inner peace
will ease the heavy burden your soul might carry

Don’t give up your power by reinforcing your fears!

Remember we are all multidimensional beings that have come here
to lighten up our planetary consciousness and universe throughout

Heaven and Earth are co-mingling together,
as movement into we consciousness grows stronger every day

Later this month, Summer Solstice gives us peak power of sunlight
Use the intensity of yang’s masculinity to expand your soul’s awareness . . .

Make friends with the truth that you are one with everything . . .
Even the primitive, reptilian minded, fighting-oriented Powers That Be

You become the change you want to see in the world when you
scuba dive beneath the surface illusion that
we are separated and disconnected from each other

Witness the communion between your inner and outer space!

Till we meet again at next week’s trail head,

Ari

Hummingbird Flaps its Wings into the Nectars of Inner Peace

Hummingbirds are good reminders that humming to ourselves
inspires a powerful potential to lighten-up our energy fields . . .

We all become guardians of the galaxy when we heed the
sweet surrendering sound of hummingbird’s call!

As Summer Solstice rapidly approaches,
growing energies of sunlight are intensifying

Revolutionary raised firsts to a power to the people mantra is bringing the noise

Judging yourself or someone else as a powerless victim of circumstance
feeds your enslavement by those in positions of power

We all have to do our part by awakening to our own personal power!

In this process, we move further along the co-creative trails
of inner peace and we consciousness . . .

Perhaps you feel stuck in the sinking sands of a personal swamp . . .

Just let your guilt and shame go by imagining a truthful, yet loving
perceptual lens shift into the shape of authentic personal discovery

Follow your bliss and discover the joy within your being
Even if you doubt the reality of that perception

Just imagine the possibility of Hummingbird showing you
the inner spacial landing pad of inner peace

Where nothing else matters but the vibration of healing old wounds
that get in the way of you experiencing heaven on earth

Hover over an aerial picture of peaceful, relaxing and calm thoughts
reflects internal imagery of transformative healing

See you further on up the trails,

Ari

Buzzing Along During The Sweetness of Spring’s Air

Bees reflect strength in our numbers . . .

Working folks make a difference when in touch with their grass-roots

But souls must be careful not to lose individual identity at the expense
of the rising tide of conformity that gets stuck in hive mentality

It’s easy to foolishly distill complex issues into
simplistic mental compartments of good and evil . . .

Just take a look at the proliferation of
weapons of mass destruction buzzing in secret silos across our planet,

Do you feel the stinging the truth of this kind of stupidity?

Forget about apocalyptic internal nightmares for a moment . . .
Replace these dark storms with a dead calm

Focus on the sweetness of life as much as possible
Especially during the bitter-tasting

See you up the trails,

Ari

Wading Through The Blues and Clearing Up Muddy Waters with Blue Heron

Blue Heron symbolizes sound soulful guidance in the area
of cultivating a wise personal security council

Folks in the coaching, mental and spiritual health arena
might call this balancing our rational-emotional minds
with our wise minds . . .

It’s so easy to fall in and out of love with the ways of the world . . .
Anything and everything can be romanticized

Entanglements with form abound, and distract our
pleasures and pains with conveniently inconvenient truths

Where did the poetic pop culture expression
“word to your mother” come from?

Shouldn’t everyday be a combination of Mother/Father/Earth day?
Every moment awakens a new breath of new life into our Beings

That’s a good saying to self to remember in the fog
of seasonal allergies, head colds and other maladies
serving as barriers to knowing inner peace . . .

Singing the blues, ramped up mania and the downward
spiral of melancholy have a way of streaming into people’s lives

For some, clinical depression and its manic opposite side
of the same coin are normal realities!

Full Moons tend to feature a rise and fall of these opposites
Does that drive you nuts?

But now that a new lunar cycle is waking up again
remember that madness is the choice to keep doing the same thing
over and over again, while expecting the same results

Taking responsibility for that choice, blazes new pathways that lead
souls out of the darkness of blaming-oriented,
problem-focused, victim consciousness

There is security in knowing that there is always a third and different
way of doing things that can reveal a solution focused perspective

May the spirit of that light your way!

Perceptual Adjustments with Lizard’s Guidance

Subtleties of perception . . .
Scale back to the old sands of time

Relax formidable systemic walls of perception
See through an old age mantra of the better the devil you know . . .

Allow the sunlight warm your soul –
Let the earth ground your spirits and bake on rock solid foundation!

Shady areas can cool you down . . .
Mountains can connect you to Father Sky

Co-creation is about we consciousness as we move into an Aquarian Age
Equality energizes masculine and feminine energies

We all need to keep trying

Even though fictive lizard Master Yoda’s spits
the wisdom to do or do not . . .

It’s hard to be rational and logical when the Universe
reverses directional momentum

Might as well embrace illogical, creative and non-linear/localized
systems of thoughts . . .

Just imagine a world where we all know inner peace –
See that reflect in our outer world for all of us to share

Landing into True Wizardry with Blue Jay

Blue Jay colors the magic of heaven and earth . . .

Their familial relationship with crows reflects
the creative and mysterious forces of Nature

We might as well say yes to the inevitable climate of changing times,
rather than suffering the inner turmoil of internal resistance

While it is the end of the world as we know it . . .
We have the opportunity to dream a new dream that we all co-create!

Working with Blue Jay’s medicine in the positive awakens true wizardry . . .
You get to become the author of your own story

Or you could method act scripted theater as a skilled pretender, like a gang of
con artists criticizing, then in the next breath supporting other charlatans

As we move further away from an old world, and closer to a New Age,
It is becoming abundantly more clear that we must all do our part
to become the change we want to see in the world

Replace the protective metaphorical Berlin Walls that fortify you hearts and minds
With the sunlight of Love and Truth!

Gently let your experience with your old self, past relationships, and dying world
Pass with care, and cross-pollinate into new growth

Chickadee Amplifies Gentle Fountains of Spring Songs

Can you hear the tweets from our Chickadee peeps in the trees?

Their higher wisdom reminds us that harmony can exist –
If we just remember to breathe . . .

But you can’t do that if you are attached to your position
and listening to the voice in your head, instead of
hearing the heart-mind another

How often do you hear the cheerful expression of truth
in the old world today?

The black truth is that mental illness runs rampant across our planet today
Addictions to dirty energies accompanies this insanity

We have a bloated President,
Towered by an inflated Military-Industrial Complex

New Waves of Divine Love, Light and Truth are trying to enter into
our mind-body-spirits to help us purify our souls development

They want to awaken an authentic healing wellness that resonates in our Being

Our consciousness must transform, and branch out into
greener pastures that grows roots into seven generations ahead

The higher consciousness of Chickadee reminds us that
the truth does not need to hurt but can be sung with a gentle and soft melody

You know we are living in dangerous times, where
galactic violence is accelerating . . .

Many people and Nation States are pounding their chests aggressively –
There is too much posturing, barking, nagging , and machismo military might

It reminds me of a toddler that did not want to share, or was angry
about an age-appropriate limit being set by someone older and wiser

Re-examine everything you have been taught to believe about your
relationship with yourself, and your relationship to the world around you

Look at how you have been conditioned to buy into the belief that
there are winners and there are losers, that people get what they deserve.
And then explore the opposite side of that coin

Meditate on the mantra, “Nothing is as it seems . . . Nor is it the opposite”
But please do so in your heart with  a sweet singing earworm of Chickadee

Hopping Along The Trails With Frog

A Full Pink Moon blossoms in our skies this week . . .
The intensities of the light are rising

There is evidence of new growth sprouting up along the trails . . .

Masculine energies are in full swing now, as yin fades into waning darkness –
In the Northern Hemisphere at least

As we trek further into Spring,
many folks experience frogs in their throats at this time of year

Perhaps you are unexpectedly grieving the ghosts of Winter, past relationships
or even a death of a close relative that has left this Earth

Are you experiencing heightened anxieties about the recent
human-made atrocities that have occurred in our history
and are happening right now around the planet?

Let Frog enter into your awareness to stop doing that
and replace the chatter with heartfelt visions of Love and Light

Death is just another transition really,
although part of being human is to have attachments . . .

Given part of spiritual growth is to let go of our attachments . . .
Lightening-up to our formless selves is not always easy to relax into

And it is our formless selves as souls that are created in the image of God
In our diverse expressions, we are one intricate web of life

What we do to one strand, affects the cosmic whole

When a fellow human being dies of suicide, is taken by cancer,
or a nation of people are bombed from within and also far away . . .

We are all impacted and affected by these disastrous
tragedies of human shortcomings

Let Frog breathe spiritual power into your being,
and reinforce the power of self-respect for your personal boundaries

This time of year reminds us of the transience of life . . .
The blessing of becoming mortal, is not without the curse of physical decay

But as inconvenient truth as allergic reactions to
the winds of change might be . . .

Another way to look at rain, is to look forward to the release of old,
stuck energies that are cleansed by April showers

It can be hard not to get submerged in the swamp . . .
Do what you can to rise up and make the energetic leap onto higher lily pads

Our world is ripe with the fruits of purification
Even if they come in the form and feeling of labor pains

A transformation in consciousness is occurring
Even though the awakening process isn’t happening as gracefully as it could

But somewhere over the rainbow, Frog’s sings in an unconventional voice
that spring’s forth a thunderous washout that brightens the spirits with
a colorful bouquet of fluorescent leaves and May flowers

See you further up the trails,

Ari
