I enjoyed this video immensely, and I hope you do too. It’ a wonderful way to relax the mind and body.

Three thousand feet of sparkling water,
The Milky Way pouring down from heaven.” – Li T’ai-po

Gaia

Happy Spring Equinox!

“Evolution is a tightly coupled dance, with life and the material environment as partners. From the dance emerges the entity Gaia”. -James Lovelock

The Spring Equinox

“The figure stood motionless in the garden whispering. “Spirit of Gaia, You who have guided my every footstep, you whose spirit has sheltered and guarded my life, I honor you.

The exact moment of the sun’s rising was marked by bird song filling the air with sound. She stood silent with her head bowed. Her small hands held a white stone etched with tiny marks and symbols. As her fingers touched each symbol with reverence, her eyes glowed with a soft light.

Ancient ones, keepers of secrets, wise ones, I honor your presence,” she whispered. She placed the stone gently on the grass. Mother, come to us in our time of need, come to us in our hour of darkness. Come to us, teach us that our strength comes from the earth, the sky, and the sea. Teach us that we are part of the great magic that binds us all together.

Over head the trees sighed as she listened to the secret music of the wind. She loves the springtime filled with so much potential and so many possibilities. With  a small gesture of her hand, she turned and left the garden.  Well, she mused, we shall see . . . we shall see.”   -Rose Arizmendi – The Deep Magic of Gaia.

Everyday Goddessing  is about sharing magical techniques and sacred wisdom with other beautiful Goddess women. I believe that within every woman there is a goddess, a wise woman, beautiful, creative, powerful, with a deep soul, and that everything we need and are looking for is already inside  each of us. – Rose Arizmendi

Trees Talk

Did you know that trees talk? Well they do. They talk to each other, and they will talk to you if you listen. Trouble is you don’t listen. But I have learned a lot from the trees: sometimes about weather, sometimes about animals, sometimes about the Great Spirit.   Tatanga Mani (Walking Buffalo) 1871– 1967

Physicist Ed Wagner has found evidence that trees talk to each other in a language he calls W-waves. The speed of W-waves measure about 3 ft per second through the air. They travel much too slowly to be electrical waves and they don’t seem to be electromagnetic waves at all.

He describes them as an altogether different entity. He goes on to say that people have known that there was communication between trees, but they explained it by the chemicals trees produce.

Building a personal relationship with trees, deepens our connection to Gaia. They carry great wisdom and if asked in a respectful way, they will share their ancient wisdom and knowledge with us.

Connecting To The Earth

A large part of  connecting to the earth is learning to listen.

We may begin this process by committing to thirty days or evenings of sitting outdoors. Simply sit there quietly without any other distractions for 15 minutes to half an hour, and watch the world unfold around you, letting nature speak to you.

This practice opens our hearts and deepens our connection to Gaia, allowing us to see the world as alive and vibrant, not just a backdrop to a busy life. You will find that your perceptions will begin to slowly change, your awareness extending outside of your body with a new found sensitivity with the natural world around you.

We find our power by developing a partnership, friendship, and relationship with nature. This not only grounds and balances our relationship with ourselves, but also with our family, loved ones, friends, and community.
