Do you notice that your worries subside and your happiness quotient increases when you are in Nature?
Perhaps your soul is whispering for growth and transformation!
The Kinship with Nature course helps you discover your inherent relationship with the Elements and Realms of Nature. Through song, movement, story, breathwork, visualization and deep internal inquiry, your innate connection to the natural world will flourish.
Springtime is the perfect moment to immerse yourself in the healing life-forces of Mother Earth. These are do-not-miss opportunities
Light is Born into Darkness and all Earthlings Rejoice
And now the Solstice Light is with us!
We now celebrate with all our fellow earthlings, for the celestial corner has been rounded and Light returns! Minerals, plants, and animals rejoice. We humans, whose bodies are composed of these living ancestors, give gratitude and honor to all creation. These poems have come as gifts from the dream world; they arrived to me as visitors in the velvet night. For more poems subscribe : https://www.sharifaoppenheimer.org Click on the thread A Litany of Wild Graces, or order the book from the Books tab. Happy Solstice to all!
Mineral
Hillside forest.
Spider webs are quilted sunlight.
Her veins open into this dawn.
Tourmaline crystals
tumble at her feet.
She is mineral.
Plant Woman
Her ancestral home
succumbs to fecund
silted flood waters.
A chair rocks slowly.
Lavender grows
in the palm of her hand.
Waters slowly rise.
Land Animal
Her hair becomes silk banners,
flags flying in mist-laden wind.
She dances on tiger’s back.
Jungle fronds sway,
green waves parting
as the she-tiger passes.
Human
We are composite
permeable form
a place
the world-spirit
travels through:
minerals
waters
plants
animals
starfire
wind
all these
gather fragments of humankind
carry bits of our genetic alphabet
downstream or disperse them
on dandelion filaments.
We greet these guests
spirit embedded in earth
tend them
as they flow through us
know that elements borrowed
from star-born
ancestors will be returned
for our children’s
children.
