Living a life that's Wirth it.

I woke up this morning with a yearning to meditate. A call to clear my chakras. As I listen to my guided meditation video I had visions of Multnomah Falls and Oceanside Beach in Oregon. My energy called out to their energy. My peace could hear the water.

When my meditation was done, I wasn’t. I felt my body ask for more, and so I went back to my go to search: YouTube. I thought I was looking for Bilateral Music, but for no apparent reason (except for the algorithms and know me too well) the video that appeared when I opened the app blew my mind.

The most beautiful vision I’ve ever seen. The embodiment of Mother Earth, the water that flows, the love and peace in my heart.

Shamanic Music for Healing and High Vibrations – Energy Restoration

I immediately put in my earbuds and began to listen. My body was moved. Physically and energetically. I felt connected to something like never before. No, not never before, just not for a very long time. The sorrow I heard in the music, the longing and strength I see in her face- the connection I feel to the beat of the drum. It all feels so familiar.

But from where? That I do not have the answer. I can guess. I can guess that I must have been indigenous in a past life. With the most grace, respect, and sorrow I can muster. I have always held the indigenous culture and people who knew this land before in a very special place in my being. I have never quite been able to understand the connection, but anytime I hear the music, see representation of the culture or its people, I feel like I am home.

My body began moving in ways I don’t know I’ve ever moved.

Flowing to the rhythm calling to me.

Tamping to the beat of its soul.

As I started to come back to reality, I opened my eyes to be standing in front of my calendar. I looked at today and was reminded that today is Mother Earth Day. I promptly wished her a happy day, and immediately felt sorrow.

I felt her cry out in pain. I felt her anger at her injustices.

I felt her fear for her future. I felt her anguish for being ignored.

I look at the image in the video as it continues to move my soul, and I see her.

In the actual video, the energy is swirling around her connected to her power and beauty, flowing with her serene and calm presence. I hear the ocean flowing, and a flute so sad. Her beauty dying. Her light growing dim.

She will not bend to the will of others. She will not give in to the war outside.

She will go down with her grace and dignity. She will not run and hide.

Stoic and strong she waits patiently for the knowing. The knowing that connects to her power and peace.

Just waiting for us all to find her, hidden until war does cease.

Mother Earth, I see you today. I hold you in my arms and share my peace with you. You have held us up and calmed our nerves, and now it is our turn to care for you.
