Listening for Song in Nature

The song that came to me was inspired by my prayer calling for courage. From this, the words, Trust, Flow, Love, Be arose. I believe it was the first prayer that came to me in the form of a song.
Spiraling Potential
August 14, 2020
I can appreciate how much the Spiral Path has helped me prepare for the very times we are in. The world is commanding change and evolution. There is an urgent need to acknowledge the truth in all our relationships - with ourselves, each other, the earth and spirit. The Spiral is speaking loudly, moving with great energy, as it stirs up and dismantles all that we have known and attached ourselves to out of comfort, habit or fear.
Passion of the Soul and Compassionate Embodiment
July 21, 2020
My soul sent me messages in the form of hearts, as to where it was enjoying its embodiment through me. I found hearts in my garden, heart rocks at the beach after watching the sunset, a heart carved on a tree in the forest, hearts in crystals, hearts in flowers.

Ancestral Threads: Rooting Connections Through Waves of Change
May 15, 2020
Grandmother Cedar has been a voice of the Great Mother, calling us home. The time of living our lives externally has come to an end. We must find our way back home to ourselves; our inner life and drink from our inner well and light. Our disconnection from Mother Earth; the power of creation and spiral of life has led to disharmony, emptiness, war, conflict, and unfulfilled lives. We are now at the Great Turning point, moving to the centre of the spiral, going within to the place of oneness. It can be a treacherous journey without tools to navigate the dark passages; however, we have the light of our hearts to lead the way.
