Storms
We have received giant, rolling storms full of rain every afternoon and into the night since early July. The mountains that surround our home look like Hawaii and the pastures are so tall that the horses' heads disappear as they graze. The lightning that we see to the north leaves one's vision blurred and strikes every 3 to 5 seconds. If that isn't passion, I don't know what is. The energy held in those clouds and released upon us is true DRALA - energy without aggression. The storm has no judgement, no anger, even though it seems overwhelming to little humans. The storm just IS. The passion in it is the energy in it. Just like "love" and hate are opposite ends of the spectrum of passion in human terms, the blessing of water and the "curse" of hail and lightning are the ends of the passion of storms. Passion has no opinion, no agenda. Energy just flows. If it cannot flow, it dies. Blocked, static/stagnant energy (chi, Ki, lifeforce, etc.) will cease to be energy. What we attach to it defines it for us (negative, detrimental; possitive, edifying) but energy moves dynamically in any direction that opens to it. Remain open and let passion charge your soul with possibilities. Then direct it for the good of all. Namaste
Horses Heal Us
If you can get you out of the way when you come to your horse, he will show you how to shift your position within the field to a place that supports and nurtures your soul. It's all about how you feel and you empower those feelings and they create your reality and your horse is ready to show you how to feel magnificent.
Compassion not Compulsion
In all of our relationships, the light of integrity is held by Compassion. If we consider something other than our own motives and agendas, we can open to living a real life outside of the world of illusion. With animals, we will establish communication instead of domination. With loved ones, we will share our very souls. With humanity, we will become beacons of reason and unconditional love. We will shift ourselves and those who resonate with Nature to a higher kind of love and life where the demoralizing of others is simply not accepted.
