Time To Leave – Interspecies Communion with Spirithawk

As I sit with Spirithawk in our garden, Osiris joins us. Ishnahnay sleeps nearby with St. Francis. Spirithawk is before me and Osiris is behind.

I cam out to speak with Spirithawk concerning his departure to receive any information he wishes to share with me. Silence and the feeling of heart love, deep & strong. I have been struggling with Spirithawk leaving before me as there was time when I thought I would be complete with my soul’s work before or at the same time as he.

Holistic Emergency Care for Horses

(article for Holistic Horse Magazine)

What is Holistic Emergency Care?

What does holistic emergency care mean? How is it different from the traditional way that first aid is taught? Even in emergencies, holistic healing deals with the whole being, not just the part that hurts. It recognizes that all your horse has four energy bodies, spiritual, emotional, mental and physical and the knowingness that to successfully treat or facilitate healing of any illness, injury or trauma, all four bodies must be brought back into balance.

Many health problems, be they illness, injury or other trauma, begin with an emotional upset or imbalance of some type. If this is not corrected it can move into the mental body, and then eventually into the physical, where it manifests as an illness or bodily injury. This is as true of our horse companions as it is of us. It has been well documented that animal companions, horses, dogs, cats, etc., will often take on the diseases or traumas of their humans in order to both assist them as well as mirror to them, to help in the learning of soul lessons.

Building Homes and Communities In Harmony with Mother Earth

Written August 2007 – After Hurricane Katrina

Once again humans and their animals are experiencing the affects of building communities in flood plain areas. A large portion of the Ohio basin is currently under water experiencing a “major disaster” brought on by heavy rains, which have caused Ohio’s rivers to overflow their banks into the surrounding communities.  This is only a “disaster”, because we (humans) have continuously ignored the requirements of the earth to feed herself and her natural communities through flooding, fires, and other “natural disasters”, building our communities wherever we have desired with no heed to the long-term affects that might result. My question is, are we ready to listen to what the earth has always been telling us? Are we ready to build our communities in alignment with her ebb and flow, allowing harmony and prosperity to exist between Mother Earth, the nature realms, and humanity?

For years I (and many others) have watched as our human communities in the United States have moved into river valleys, high fire areas and other natural communities that are continuously in the state of change. We have dammed up the rivers, eliminating earth’s ability to perform regular flooding that brings much-needed nutrients into the soils. These nutrients are for the benefit of all life, and their elimination has been sorely noticed over the years. Soils have become depleted, and riparian habitat, some of the most diversely populated upon the earth, has become in endangered.

Then to top it off when earth and her weather systems do create enough rain to topple over the constraints that humans have placed in their way, we call it a disaster because of the adverse affects the people in the areas affected experience. What is wrong with this picture?  Mother Earth has always provided clear signs, a road map, for those who live upon her to follow in creating community. Many ancient cultures around the world including American Indians observed these signs and honored the flow of the earth, understanding that she is providing for us all.

Many of these regions, such as the Ohio basin, were populated by humanity because of their rich soils and other resources. Then “we” promptly dammed up the very source of that richness, surrounding these rivers with homes and industry. On a recent visit through Ohio and Indiana I had the eye-opening experience to see that the Ohio River is still be polluted by industry and other sources. Polluted to the point of it being unfit to swim in. Now, like the Thames River in England, which massively overflowed its banks just weeks ago, this pollution is spreading to house and home across the land.

Could it be that Mother Earth is not only saying it is time for her to cleanse her own body, but that she is also saying it is time for you  (humanity) to reckon with the huge imbalances and unwellness that we as humans have created upon her body? All of the elements (air, water, fire, metal and earth) and their relationships with the earth are designed work in divine harmony and flow with one another. Humans, as part of the global family of earth are being rather boldly reminded of major imbalances we have created through our desire to do things our way, despite the consequences.

Mother Earth is a schoolhouse; a living library where we come to try out different scenarios and learn from the consequences.  However, now Mother Earth’s divine mission has been endangered and Divine Will is being reestablished upon her to ensure that she is allowed to fulfill her destiny.  We as part of her global family have major opportunities to make positive, responsible and harmonious choices that will allow her and our global community (this includes the nature realms) to live happy, healthy and prosperous lives.

One way to ensure that this happens and to have a great time in the process, is to remember our roles as earth stewards; caretakers of the earth and her creatures. Learning how to listen to and observe the teachings of nature and Mother Earth are of utmost importance in our success. For in order to be her steward, we must understand her, respect her and be willing to co-create harmonious life with her.  This is true of all life. It is true within us as individuals and all levels of community; local and global.

We must learn to listen to the earth and ask where it is for the highest good to build, to grow food, to produce energy centers. All parts of the earth have a divine blueprint, that if followed will allow us to co-create a wondrous world for all. Earth stewardship is also called earth guardianship. It is not about management. It is about being caretakers and respecting the divine light within all beings.  It is time that we learned to ask permission before digging a hole, building a house or cutting down a tree. It is time to say please and thank you to Mother Earth.

Bringing Divine Community into Being Through Interspecies Communication with Earth and Her Kingdoms

Bringing Divine Community Into Being

We are in a time when the call back to divine community is being heralded across the earth.  Divine community, sustainable community, a way of living where all prosper and harmony is felt by the participation of all Earth life, through the utilization of earth wisdom and technology in a dance of partnership. This new way of living is required by all to ensure the continuation of life upon Earth.  It has been shown to me by the nature realms and those wise ones who have long kept a sacred relationship with nature (of which humans are a key component), that divine community can only truly be achieved through a deep and loving communion and communication with the nature realms and Mother Earth herself.

Love is All We Are!

Love is All We Are

All we need is love, da, da, da, da, da …. I would wager to say that most humans with access to music in the last thirty years have heard this wonderful song by the Beatles.

All we need is love, da, da, da, da, da,

All we need is love, da, da, da, da, da

All we need is love, love,

Love is all we need ….

Now in this time of knowing and understanding the power of words more clearly, we know that the word “need” means that we don’t have it, but really wish we did!  We now also know that what we focus upon, and claim, becomes our reality.

In this awareness a while back I began changing the word “need” to the word “am”. Thus creating the lyric:

All I AM is love, love …love is all I AM.

Ah this singing of the truth of my/our being is quite delicious and fun to sing. It is just as easy to sing it with “you are”, or “we are” to help bring this divine truth more and more into the collective.

It is a wonderful jingle, and can be especially helpful when something that could cause you distress comes to your attention. Rather than getting in a fret about it, bring love into it, and help it shift:

All we are is love, da, da, da, da, da.

It may seem like a silly thing. But give it a go.  You might be surprised! And the fun thing is, it is quite catchy as well.

All we are is love, da, da, da, da, da.

All I AM is love, da, da, da, da, da

All we are is love, love,

Love is all we are, love is all we are, love is all we are

And fade out ….

Thank you once again to the Beatles for all their inspiration and love!

With love,

What is Holistic Emergency Care?

What is Holistic Emergency Care?

What does holistic emergency care mean? How is it different from the traditional way that first aid is taught? Holistic health deals with the whole being, not just the part that hurts. It recognizes that all creatures have four energy bodies, which are the spiritual, emotional, mental and physical.  To successfully treat or facilitate healing of any health imbalance all four bodies must be brought back into balance.

Many health problems, be they illness or “accident,” begin with an emotional upset or imbalance of some type. If this is not corrected it can move into the mental body, and then eventually into the physical, where it manifests as an illness or bodily injury. This is as true of our animal companions as it is of us. It has been well documented that animal companions will often take on the diseases of their humans in order to both assist them as well as mirror to them, to help in the learning of soul lessons.  When an injury or acute illness occurs, the holistic caregiver will tend to all four bodies in the order of importance, to bring the one(s) being assisted into a state of calm and comfort as quickly and effectively as possible.

In addition to treating all bodies, the holistic healing facilitator may utilize a variety of vibrational healing tools: herbs, homeopathy, flower essences, and working directly with healing Light Teams or Creator.  Holistic care emphasizes treating the whole being through the understanding of the Oneness of everyone and everything. All things carry a vibration that can be beneficial or hazardous, dependent upon their nature and how they have been created.  In holistic emergency care we are often called upon to utilize the beneficial to remove or rebalance the hazardous.

For example: A child falls off a swing spraining her ankle and cutting her knee open quite severely. She is scared, in pain, and in a low level of shock by the time you are able to assist her. To care for her holistically you will treat her emotional distress, most likely with a flower essence remedy and a hug of reassurance; calm her mentally by talking about something else to get her mind off the hurt; then treat the physical injuries in order of severity with a combination of modalities as described in Sections II and III of this book. Staying in touch with the emotional, mental, and physical states of the person will result in a much higher success rate.

Assisting an injured animal has many similarities to that of a human. As a healer or first responder the holistic approach is to address all four bodies. The focus given to each body and the order that this occurs is sometimes different in animals, because they often deal with injury and disease differently than humans.   In any case, it is our responsibility to treat all bodies to bring complete balance back into the animal, if that is her choice.

It is in the trauma recovery where the rebalancing and deep healing of all bodies can occur.  It is here that the choice is made by the whole being to create a positive reality for itself, or remain stuck in negative thoughts and thinking that will attract more illness.  In providing holistic tools to the human or animal to heal the deeper imbalances, the opportunity is given to return to wholeness and true health.

In an emergency situation we are seeking the stabilization of the bodies, and the correcting or containing of life-threatening situations. But we must remember that if one treats only the physical body and disregards the mental, emotional, and spiritual imbalances that created it in the first place, it is highly likely that continued imbalances or dysfunctions in the higher subtle bodies would once again be projected into the physical body in some form. This applies to humans and animals alike.

In summary, it is with holistic emergency care and trauma recovery that we address the whole by utilizing tools that serve and rebalance the whole. In so doing the causal energies that brought the situation into a physical manifestation may be removed or healed completely, thus eliminating the need for the human or animal to repeat the experience in any form.
