Beaver

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Beaver Moon sets on Monday sheds light on a dark night

Global issue have risen to the surface so that
we can surf waves into New Age waters

Do you remember old fireside stories that inspired our ancestors that sets traps
before jack frost sets in so that we get what we need before winter shortages

But many are struggling with not getting what they
wanted during last week’s election results

Are you feeling depleted after the recent American election?
Tis the season to come down into our souls and tunnel into the dark

Remember that even in darkness, there is light and the
wisdom that you can’t fight dark forces with more dark energy

Leave it to Beaver to reflect that the action of yang,
will illuminate the shadows

The future is fluid and movement into another era
is often unpredictable and chaotic

Be part of the solution by being a calming agent of Love and Truth

Is it not interesting that the candidate that called the election rigged
won the electoral vote but not the popular vote?

Is it not curious that the media that dismissed this assertion also confidently
reassured the masses that the candidate that lost was going to win?

Either side you flip the coin, the lesser of two evils might not look like a loss
But nobody really wins in lose-lose situations

Like a beaver dam, there are multiple underwater pathways
hidden from what is visible from the ground up

Remember the iceberg metaphor . . .

Picture underground rising crystalline grids of compassion and love
growing roots deep beneath the Earth’s surface

Beavers embody super powers of industry
they never stop working or fail to sink their teeth into hard work

Yet there is a softness in their approach
They know how to harmonize with Nature’s way

Find alternative exit strategies to cocreate peaceful warrior solutions

Black Crow Like Me

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Hunter’s Moon waxes on in the week ahead . . .
It’s energetic crops yield sustenance through the forthcoming wintry storms ahead

Crow calls out to the primordial magic and mystery of
life’s everyday unscripted spiritual adventure

Falling leaves reflect a dying environmental analysis of
underground roots that are parched from dehydration

Breathe in and wet Her palette with creative energies
that are wanting to express themselves by releasing boxed in thought patterns

Feminine movement tunnels into the black gold of
intuitive, unexplored dark realms

Deep pockets infiltrate our collective political climate
Just look at the Donald and Hillary’s criminal relationship with the Federal Reserve

Are you convinced that your vote must come down to a crook or a bigot?

Movement into a New Age and Paradigm casts votes for
Universal pillars of Love and Truth over the lesser of two evils!

But responding versus reacting changes the trajectory of
our individual and collective experience with reality . . .

Time to shift into mindful, intrinsic revelations of
what lies beneath internal yin-bound trains of consciousness

We are leaving behind a dying Pisces Age of gurus, heroes and savior complexes –
While moving on up into a we are all in this together mantra . . .

Eagle Soars Along the Trails, Whilst Blazing Bald New Truths

Posted on by under Consciousness, Energy Medicine, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Harvest Moon fades into a sunlit moon’s twilight
of a waning Fall Eclipse Season . . .

Do you see the veils between the spirit and material realms
thinning before your eyes?

Grandmother Moon mates with Grandfather Sun
Autumn Equinox is the spirit of the season

Opportunistic Bald Eagle eats a dead dear

Is Mother Nature’s revelation gently allowing for
being lured into new moon frontiers?

Or perhaps Eagle hears formerly sound-proof
airways of transformative drum-trips . . .

Movement into multidimensional friendly cohabitation with shadow selves

A High Mind is balanced by a yinwardly strong tree trunk
sewn deeply into this black Planet . . .

There is no need to fear Her primal Nature

Spiritual Beings stand on Her fertile ground and bow to her bounty
But with paradoxical knowledge that we are not of It

We all sport star-dust in our Divine Constitution!

Creative forces flow with the power of water
Neurons want to dig in to outside the box right brain thinking

Linear, logical and rational left brain cognition is also important for balance

See your body as a Golden Temple living within the Kingdom of Heaven
This perception will help you reconcile the conflict with duality

Might as well lighten up attachments to Her gravitational pull

See positive interpretations through the Eagle Eyed lens of silver linings

Take note of your thoughts about the world . . .
Be curious about how they might affect your attached emotions

And then witness how you act out those drams in your day-to-day operations

If you want, consider scripting a new authorship

See you along the trails,

Bear Like Me Walks Along the Trails

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Last week’s Full Harvest Moon and Lunar Eclipse wanes O’er the skies
Consciousness descends into dimming lights in the Northern Hemisphere

The shades of Autumn Equinox reflect balance of Masculine and Feminine

Bear medicine can help you know when to back off and when to assert yourself
Picture a Bear to stand in your own personal authority

Remember that a Yinward bound train gains momentum until Her climax
Deep into the caves of December on Winter Solstice

Boundaries are always an important opportunity for a mindful walking meditation

Darker nights symbolize a letting go of action-oriented yang
A sleepier time of the year reveals a thinning of the veils

The discrepancy between the material and spirit realm fades away

Our friends in the Southern Hemisphere will paradoxically
see more Light on their horizon
Souls are feeling more energized and intense there

Look to nature to nurture relationships within yourself and others
It is wise to move with our pain or we end up not moving at all

Rooting into the earth of our inner human potential . . .
Reflects that Life tastes as sweet as honey!

See you later on the trails,

Warding Off Nervous Woodland Creature Energies with Chipmunk’s Spirited Guidance

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Meditation on Chipmunk welcomes prosperity
Time to be thrift by stowing gatherings away with efficiency

Movement toward Friday, yields a Full Harvest Moon eclipse . . .

We are riding the waves of a rising tide –
Veils are thinning, while dark shadowy energies are gaining ground

Remember that by investing in loss, you paradoxically have nothing to gain
Perhaps you might just receive one more case of what you no longer want!

What if you just let go of controls and see how you feel while riding the waves?
What is so rewarding about holding onto attachments to what we resist?

Mercury in Retrograde challenges logical and rational thought patterns
Be mindful of a greater opportunity to think outside the conventional boxes

Dig in to intuitive and imaginative perceptual communication tunnels

How are you doing with your seasonal balancing act between work and play?

Autumn Equinox, breathes in energetic equality of yin and yang
Nature projects light and dark energies dancing in egalitarian oneness

Like a Chipmunk in Winter, our collective consciousness has been in hibernation
Now is the time to come out of a systemic hypnotic trance . . .

A multidimensional red carpet is being rolled out before our eyes!

Do you remember when shamans of the Americas helped
common folks see the ships coming in from other worlds?

Doesn’t it feel like a similar time in human history?

When will a more fair and balanced news broadcast lead to revelations that
challenge the predominant human-centric theories of our origins?

When I think of Heaven, Deliver me in the Belly of a Red Winged Cardinal

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Can you hear the whistle of Cardinal’s spirit blowing in the wind?
Are you feeling eclipsed by their virtuous and powerful archetypal footprint?

Mercury in Retrograde resurrects perpetually dead, albeit real call backs . . .
Our minds move away from rational, logical and linear recordings

Try not to get identified with any fixed ideas or repetitively negative mental tapes
Just examine them with an open, passive attitude and gently let them pass

A Full Moon coming soon yields a hearty seasonal Harvest . . .
What tremors will be seen, heard and felt across the fruited plains?

Feeling safe, comfortable and regulated will be challenged
But there is an opportunity for letting go and relaxing into seismic changes

Feminine yin power intensifies during the approach of the
Autumn Equinox this September

Back to school, back to business and getting organized is in the air!
But don’t let that drive you nuts . . .

A revival of old religious traditions co-mingles paradoxically with
listening to the messages of your True self and Inner Voice that
remind vitality is always here for you to allow in any given moment!

Climate Change, dark sorcery and violence plague our streets . . .
Breathing in chaotic storm fronts are painful to watch and hard on the lungs . . .

But where are you on the map of seeing a
Silver Lining Playbook and making only positive interpretations?

The black truth is that it can be hard to find Nirvana
within the chaotically deafening traffic jam of life!

Might as well strum the heartstrings of Oneness and
tune in to the key of Inner Peace!

Climbing the Trails with Mountain Lion

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Mountain Lion hides in caverns, cracks and crevices
Their energies reflect silent leadership and strong feminine power

Yin is rising toward Autumn’s ascension

Feminine power is strongest when cultivated gradually
through a gentle and soft approach

A Full Sturgeon Moon floats
into our stream of consciousness on August 18th

Humans have been programmed to be afraid of the dark
Which is why it is tempting keep the blinders on and go back to sleep

But the light of consciousness wants to shine on
what we were once blinded by

That could be learning something new about yourself or someone you know
Perhaps that new information does not sit well with your preconceived notions

In that light, maybe the shades of your worldview has been forced to lift

But Nature reflects storms brewing that require us to pay attention
to the subtleties of the changing seasons

Cats remind us of the magic, mystery and synchronicity
that lurk behind shadows and dark areas

What self-evident truths want to leap out into the waning sunlight?

The Autumn Equinox is coming soon in later September
Between Tao and Zen we will experience an astrological eclipse season

At that time, light and dark energies will be fleetingly equal again
Masculine and feminine energies will be in alignment with one another

What winds of change are brewing in the air up there?

When I think of how maddening it is to hold onto the shores,
I remember the wisdom of letting go and letting God

Because what we resist will persist

It does feel less crazy to float with the current
and trust the process without throwing caution to the wind

Finding Industry with Beaver

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Beavers are industrious creatures . . .
Building and being productive is what they do

Their medicine is a friendly reminder that
dreams arrive if you consciously sculpt them into this reality

A Full Sturgeon Moon is rapidly approaching upstream
While an Astrological Fall Season is blowing in the winds of change ahead

Autumn season sits on the horizon in the Northern hemisphere
While Summer’s light gradually wanes

Do you take issue with that forthcoming situation or do you rejoice about a new season?

Leave it to Beaver to show you how to produce a new film your life –
Especially if you don’t feel a sense of purpose anymore

It will take some work on your part
But seasonal energies can help energize your way

Otherwise, it’s just the same old Groundhog Day movie
that repeatedly plays out in your life’s script

Beavers are action-oriented team players that embody mutual-aid group work
Meditation on their knowledges reveals alternative ways of travel

There is a sense of harmony and spacial respect in their eco-development
This is the wave of the future for a more fair playing field

Leave it to Beaver to inspire a work ethic and harmonic convergence of labor

Slithering into New Holes with Snake

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

A Full Buck Moon fades into the backdrop
Peak light on the Summer Solstice sets further away on the horizon . . .

Here in Maine, Governor Paul LePage and company
represent developmentally delayed politics

Currently, we witness a parallel process unfolding
in the presidential candidacy of overt bigot Donald Trump

Now back to business with the Clinton’s . . .
Did they really go anywhere?

The torch of a smoldering Bernie Sanders campaign
cannot be extinguished entirely

Because the political waves of social-democratic change is a rising tide
of a New Age consciousness that is still weathering labor pains

Venoms and poisons are toxic to our planet
Paradoxically, we all have an opportunity for personal transformation

May we rework success from an inside out perspective!

We are living in an era where
we are shedding dead skins from a passing old world

In that, an awakening New Earth is cross-pollinating

Don’t buy into the reptilian fear-based mental tapes
that saturate the public mind

Is an alternative vote for someone other than
the proverbial lesser of two evils really a wasted vote?

Or just an energetic vote that moves closer to love and further away from fear?

See the truth of oneness through the eyes of love, light and laughter . . .

Riding Out Summer Storms with Finch

Posted on by under Consciousness, Native American, Shamanism, Uncategorized

Finch flies in along with a Full Buck Moon this week . . .

But just to amplify the growing heated points right now,
we are lured further into positive summery vibrations
with the gentle nature of Deer

True, subtle momentum of Yang might be slowing down
as darker energies have been moving Yinward since the Summer Solstice

Yet intensities and activity levels expand in conjunction with magical opportunities

Witness the old world and your old selves dying
while at the same time a new world and new selves are budding

Kind of like Butterfly . . .

It can be hard to sit with the darker emotions and darkness in our world today
We sit in the tension of crisis and opportunity

But the power of love is transformative
The calm of love relaxes nervous woodland creature energies

How will we co-author a new script for our one human family,
including all other energies that share our
multidimensional unfolding budding reality?

Time to dance to the beat of a soulful Tango . . .

Step outside of your comfort zone into the realm of diversity in unity:

“If you understand, all are one and the same;
If you do not understand, there are thousands of differences and distinctions.
If you do not understand, all are one and the same;
If you understand, there are thousands of differences and distinctions.”

We are living in changing times, where it is becoming more challenging
to bury our heads in the sands of denial

Let go of the viewpoint that we are all divided and separate,
because we are all cut from the same cloth

Make friends with the magical bird inside your being
Sunlight and dark nights all matter

There is God in letting go of judgments and allowing for forgiveness . . .

We all are a matter of spirit!

Spirit wants us to make friends with that!

Everything that you see outside of yourself is really within you

You might just need to search and find in your soul what you are looking for
Might as well do so from a position of curiosity, compassion and empathy

Move closer to love and further away from fear

Ari
