Through my eyes I’m wedded to the stars. As a gazer of the stars I do more than just watch them slowly dance across the sky. There is a conversation happening all the time and the sky is just holding space for us. When I chime in and listen to what they have to say I hear the unspoken truths of their light. Ancient memories echoing through the universe that are sailing on the winds of the cosmos to every star I see. They beacon me to listen closer. The closer I listen and the deeper I gaze communicating to them my childlike wonder. Empty and ready to learn their wisdom. I have watched their presence hold the light of love in my memories and dreams since I was a child. Starring at their revealing layers of beauty, I share inside deep gratitude that’s echoes through the light that created my existence long ago. .

“Shamanism is an art of meditation between this reality, which is to a greater extent a cultural construct, and other dimensions no less real.  Modern society is in great need of shamanism both due to the current ecological crisis, the persistent disarray at all levels of national and international society, and the negation of other forms of reality by the common scientific paradigm… Where are the teachers?  Everywhere.  They do not need to wear feathers.  When you are ready the teacher will show up.

And the place is profoundly intense and emotional. All that pain that is expressed in someone’s death is like the reverse, vibrational wave of all the love that they shared and that they generated and that was felt for them. It is the echo back of all the love is that pain and that grief. You don’t have these oscillations in the oneness of the cosmos. You have it as a human. Human, human, human, human." “We have to learn how to live with our hearts, because the mind has no answers and the heart has no questions.

Gratitude unlocks the fullness of life. It turns what we have into enough, and more. It turns denial into acceptance, chaos to order, confusion to clarity. It can turn a meal into a feast, a house into a home, a stranger into a friend.

This beautiful Earth that we have, this gift that the Universe has given us is precious beyond measure, precious beyond imagination, and we are part of it and we must treat it with Love, respect, and reverence.
