September Equinox/Sami Heritage

Greetings from Kakanui, South Island of New Zealand!  

Equinox, September 23, 2013

Happy Equinox, everybody!

For me this year, this Equinox is a time of coming into a new kind of balance with a whole new me that is configured in a whole different way than ever before.  I suspect that many of you may be experiencing a similar sort of process of exploring how to get your outer world to be a better match and expression of your True, Expanded, Multi-dimensional Soul Selves.

I accompanied a woman I met recently (in a very magical, synchronistic manner) to a special location near here where she was studying rock art.  I felt called to "sing" the place.  Afterwards she told me I sounded like a singer she had heard perform recently.

Two days after that - a week ago now - I looked Mari Boine up on the internet and discovered that that kind of singing, that started coming through me after my trip to Alaska in 1994, is called jojk or yoik and is a spiritual practice of the Sami people, a migratory tribe who herd reindeer in the far northern parts of Noway, Sweden, Finland and Russia.  Some say that yoiking sounds similar to some kinds of the Native American chanting.

I first started yoiking (having no conscious understanding at all of what it was I was feeling compelled to do) when I became part of a spiritual "family" in Olympia, WA.  At that time I also started composing what I have discovered are now referred to as yoik songs.

Yoiking was the most amazing experience because right from the beginning, I "knew" intuitively how to do it and was also aware of there being very definite rules as to how and when it was to be created and shared.   For almost 20 years now I haven't known anyone else who did the same sort of thing or who understood what I was feeling so deeply called to do.

Through the years many people have asked me if I had Native American ancestry and I knew that I didn't.   I have felt for a long time, however, that I have an indigenous soul.  I felt very comfortable during my recent travels among peoples who live simpler lives and live closer to the earth.

My physical body has mostly Scandinavian ancestry and I had always thought of myself as 100% Caucasian.  I always felt a bit uncomfortable that so much of the music that flows through me felt like it was coming from a more indigenous source.

So I am very grateful and very relieved to know that somewhere back there in my genetic pool there was most likely an infusion of blood from a very ancient indigenous people who lived close to the Earth, constantly traveling in harmony with the Earth and her creatures and her seasons.

I feel incredibly blessed and much more whole having discovered and reconnected with these Ancestors of mine.  This experience reconfirms that I can trust whatever comes through me from my heart and soul and inner knowing, even if my mind has no clue or rational explanation as to why it feels so "right". 

I know that a few of you may be interested in learning more about the yoiking, so here's a bit of info about it: http://www.utexas.edu/courses/sami/diehtu/giella/music/yoiksunna.htm

Have a wonderful spring or fall!

High Tide Vision

Greetings from Oamaru, South Island of New Zealand!

Wild times in many ways these days!  I send you much love and support for your journey, which ever way your Expanded Self is leading you through these shifting times!  

Personally, I am asking for your love and support for manifesting a vision, a HUGE vision.  Many, many diverse pieces of my life have come together since my time with the whales and I am being asked to step up to the plate and work in a much larger arena than I have up to this point in time.  

I have become very aware of the power of group co-creational intent and so I ask that you please hold this vision for me, with me:

I am being asked to manifest the creation of a movie that holds high frequency energies that will serve to vibrationally ignite, activate and inspire Ancient Memories, Expanded Awareness and a Deep Reverence for the Earth for all who experience it, particularly the young people.  It will reach a international, global audience.  It is to be created by involving the Ancient Ones every step of the way using sacred, ceremonial, multi-dimensional group co-creative processes.   

I see wise elders who remember - of indigenous tribes around the world - being involved in the creation and development of the story vehicle for the movie.   I see Niki Caro helping to write the script and directng.  I see Peter Jackson producing it, and Oprah involved in the distribution of it - getting it out to people all over the world.

I see that all of us involved are being totally supported with the contacts, resources and financial backing necessary to bring this movie into full, glorious manifestation so that it will have a powerful, inspiring impact at the perfect time on its audience as well as all who are involved in its development, production, and distribution along the way.

So, please join me in holding this vision!!!!

I am extremely grateful for all the strange twists and turns in my life path that have prepared me for taking on this project!  I am very grateful for all the support and love and inspiration I receive from each one of you!  I feel very, very blessed!!!

Namaste,

PS.  I was given a new song during my communion with the whales in Tonga - "High Tides".  It came through while I was sitting next to the ocean during the really high tide of the full moon in Aug.  The song keeps going through my head over and over.  Here's the last verse:

My life feels rich, my life feels full, 

My heart expands til it overflows with love

With a deep, deep love for all Creation 

High Tide!

High Tide!

I feel my soul as it fills and grows when it's high tide

Bringing New life

Yes, New life

Tis the birthing time

for a brand new way of living!

Greetings from Christchurch Airport!

South Island of New Zealand - Aug. 22, 2013

I arrived in Tonga for the new moon and stayed 2 weeks until the full moon. Last night I left Tonga and returned to New Zealand, watching the full moon in both places.  I went expecting to swim with the whales, but when I arrived it was very clear that I was not to go out in a boat or get in the water with the whales.  I was blessed that I was able to see whales every day from the shore at the place I was staying.

The half way point of my visit, Wed. Aug. 14th, was an incredible day!  I felt called to go to the beach for the morning to commune with the whales and when I started down the path, I saw a mother and newborn baby lying in the water just a few meters off shore in the deep water right where I was staying.

Both whales stayed there, right in front of the viewing platform for a long, long time.  I watched for about 3 hours while the baby appeared to be learning how to float, breathe, and nurse and then started to explore its new whale body, starting to jump out of the water and splash around with its tail.  I felt deeply immersed in whale energy and "birthing of new life" energy and sent it out to all of you while I was watching the baby frolic.

What an incredible honor to witness a new life beginning!!!!

While I was watching the whale baby, I realized that I, too, felt like I was beginning a new life.  That we are all beginning new lives as expanded, higher vibration beings!

This last week has been a very rich time, lots of dreams.  I've had lots of ideas coming in about new creations in all areas of my life from here on out.  Truly a time of creating new ways of living here on this Earth as our expanded, multi-dimensional selves.

Much love and birthing energy to each one of you who reads this!

Birthplace of the Whales

Greetings from Auckland, North Island of New Zealand!

I'm sitting in the airport at Auckland at the moment. 

I'll be leaving for Tonga in the morning, heading for 'Eua, the oldest, most ancient island of the Tonga group.  It is part of the birthing grounds for the whales of the southern hemisphere and I'm being called to go there to commune with the land and with the whales.  Tonga is a kingdom, one of the only places in the South Pacific that was not colonized by a foreign country.  It is one of three places on Earth where people are still allowed to swim with the whales.  

I'll be there for two weeks from the new moon (Aug. 6/7) until the full moon (Aug. 21/22) when I'll be returning home to the South Island of New Zealand once again.

I could actually feel the energetic connections I had with many of you while I was in the different locations in South America - particularly strongly while I was on Easter Island and Isle de Amantani in Lake Titicaca.  I drew a picture at one point of myself connected energetically to each of you from each place as I moved around - energy pulsing back and forth from my heart to each of yours and from yours to mine.  It is my understanding that this is how we are adding our human love and energy to the gridwork of the Earth's energy, contributing our highest and best to the evolution of the planet.  Some of you are planted in one location, some of you move around as I do.  All of you are connected to many other people as well.  All together we are gifting and feeding love and light energy into the Earth, just as we are simultaneously receiving her many gifts.  This is helping to repair, rebuild and strengthen the gridwork of loving, light-filled, compassionate energy that once completely covered and connected the entire Earth.

So once again, I invite you to tune in to me while I'm in Tonga communing with that ancient land and with the whales, sharing my experience energetically, receiving the gift of wisdom that flows to and through me from them and sending them your loving energy through me - as well as directly from yourself.  There is incredible power when we join our consciousnesses together, intentionally visualizing how we want things to be, planting seeds for the New Earth.

I feel incredible gratitude to be connected to each one of you!

Namaste,

PS  You might want to read this from Jamie Sams and David Carsons' Medicine Cards book:

Whales - Record Keeper

Whale is very much like a swimming library.  Whale carries the history of Mother Earth and is said to have been placed here by the Ancients from the dog Star, Sirius.  

Biologists say that Whale is a mammal, and very possibly lived on land millions of years ago.  In tribal legend, Whale's move into the ocean happened when the Earth shifted and Lemuria, the Motherland went below the waves.

All our petroglyphs speak of the Motherland, Mu, and the disaster that brought the red race to North America from the West beyond the great waters.  The symbols in the petroglyphs speak of rivers and mountains crossed by our ancestors when they sought solid ground as the water receded.

Whale saw the events that led to the settling of Turtle Island (North America) and has kept the the records and knowledge of the Motherland alive.  It is said that Mu will rise again when the fire comes from the sky and lands in another ocean on Mother Earth.  The Native medicine people are waiting for this event as the next sign of Earth changes.  Earth's children will have to unite and honor all ways and all races in order to survive.

Whale medicine people are coded in their DNA to understand that sound frequencies can bring up records in the memories of ancient knowledge.  They are usually clairaudient, or able to hear both very low and very high frequencies.  They are usually also psychically developed and fairly telepathic.  Many times, however they are not awakened to their gifts until it is time to use the stored records.  Many Whale medicine people are able to tap into the universal mind of Great Spirit, and have no idea how or why they know what they know.  Only later, when they receive confirmation, do they begin to understand how they know or why they received the impressions. 

Whale medicine teaches us to use the sounds and frequencies that balance our emotional bodies and heal our physical forms.  To recall why the shaman's drum brings healing and peace is to align with Whale's message.  The drum is the universal heartbeat and aligns all beings heart to heart.  Before the advent of speech and the primordial language, hand signs were used, and many tribes were silent most of the time. The language that was understood was the sounds of Great Spirit's other creatures, the animals.

If you pulled the Whale card you are being asked to tap into these records and to allow yourself to be sung to by those who have the original language.  We are the only creatures who do not have our own unique cry or call.  Find yours. Allow your voice to use this sound to release tension or emotion.  Whale signals a time of finding your origins, of seeing your overall destiny as coded in your DNA, and of finding the sounds that release those records.

You may never be the same again. After all you are the melody of the Universe, and the harmony is the song of the other creatures.  In using your voice to open your memory, you are expressing your uniqueness and your personal sound.  As you open to this uniqueness, the animals that are your nine totems may then send their sounds or calls to you or through you.  This will open your personal records so that you may further explore your soul's history and commune with Whale, who carries the history of us all.

CONTRARY:

If Whale has beached itself in your cards, the contrary medicine implies that you are not following your sonar or homing device.  On some level you have forgotten that you hold all the answers you need to survive, to grow, and to claim the power of your chosen destiny.

It may be that you are having to deal with a lot of chatter in your head and cannot get to your personal records.  If so, you may need to use other sounds to enter the silence.  The drum or rattle, the Indian flute, or the sounds of nature may help.  the call of Whale is the lullaby of the tides.  Rock yourself gently and float into the world of the sea.  Flow with the waters of time and collect your answers - they are the only truth that will lead to your personal pathway of knowing.  

Contrary Whale is saying that you must desire to know.  You must seek the Whale song within you.  In hearing Whale's call you will connect to the Ancients on a cellular level,  and then as you relax into the flow of the song's rhythm you will begin to open your unique library of records. It may not come all at once.  It may take practice, but if you hold the desire to know close to your heart, it will be Whale's gift to you.  Look to the Great Star Nation and send gratitude to Sirius for the song of Whale.

Trip to South America

Greetings from Hamilton, on the North Island of New Zealand!

My recent trip to South America turned out to be quite different than anything I could have expected beforehand. One of the foundational questions of my life for several years now has been, "How do I become and live as my fully expanded multi-dimensional Self? The journey was a series of experiences providing answers to that question.

2011 for me was about accidentally discovering how to co-create multi-dimensionally with Earth energies and non-physical energies of the Ancient Ones and Ancestor Spirits as I was led step by baby step through the creative process which resulted in the Earth's Gifts series.

2012 was about intense experiences with the Earth elements and their flow through my body, living very close to the natural world. It was about deepening my awareness of that multi-dimensional co- creative process as it was happening as I/we cp-created the Earth Shift Meditation series.

The 2013 trip to South America has been a huge next step in learning more about co-creating all aspects of my life multi-dimensionally.

When I first became aware of the inner impulse to go to Rapa Nui (Easter Island) and Lake Titicaca and to sing to the volcanoes in the Andes, I couldn't believe it because I have never, ever had the slightest desire to travel anywhere in South America. I started reading anything I could find here in NZ that would help prepare me for the trip. The lists of possible physical, political, financial and health dangers to travelers were quite overwhelming when combined with the uncertainty caused by the high powered transformational energies that are constantly coming into the planet this year.

When my NZ work permit was up March 31, 2013 I headed off to Tahiti (which is where I had to go to catch the flight to Easter Island). Because of all the resistance I was feeling, I created a situation that allowed me to experience all my fears about what might go wrong in South America and after 5 days in Tahiti with no money, no internet and no phone in a French speaking country, I was popped back to NZ. However, for every one of the numerous problems I created for myself I found that my guides and non-physical helpers were able to come through with some sort of solution. I was totally taken care of.

 

Mo'orea from Tahiti

Part way through the 5 days, I became conscious of my negativity and deliberately raised my vibration and set a clear intention for what I wanted to experience. Within half an hour everything shifted and I was invited to go home with a lovely Tahitian family to help them practice their English. Having arrived in Tahiti with dark clouds over my head, I found myself being joyously farewelled by the whole family ceremonially when I left.

On my way back to the South Island I was incredibly blessed to have a divinely orchestrated meeting with a beautiful, very high vibration young man from Argentina. I came away from my few hours with him feeling like I had had a magical swim with the dolphins. For several weeks I clung to the idea that somehow he would come with me to South America as a companion and guide. I didn't really give up hoping for that right down to the moment I left Auckland the second time for Tahiti on my way to South America.

I gradually came to the realization that meeting him had been about showing me the state of being I needed to maintain if I were to accomplish what needed to be done in South America. I needed to be in a very high vibrational state if I were to be a match for hearing my guidance accurately and for meeting the high vibration people who would be helping me.
My guidance was to take my computer, but not to take a cell phone, power adapters my computer for each of the countries or a camera. I didn't get any immunizations, and I didn't take a first aid kit or any medicines.

Other than the airline tickets to Easter Island and then on to Santiago I had no reservations or bookings for anything else. I didn't know where I would be staying or how I would get around in South America. When I left I didn't have enough money for a return ticket. It was definitely a journey of trust. And over and over and over again I was totally taken care of in the most unexpected of ways. Because I was traveling by myself in Spanish speaking countries, with very little Spanish myself, the only way I had of finding my way was to listen to my guidance. At each choice point I was shown where to go, when to go, and someone always showed up to help me communicate. I came to trust my guidance even more deeply because I simply had nothing else to go by.

Before I left, I thought my main purpose in going was to do my EarthSong energy work to help with calming the Earth energies in the places I was being guided to visit. Singing to the Earth is one of the powerful ways of gifting loving human energy to Gaia and helps calm down and ease the massive physical changes she's currently experiencing. What I discovered as I visited each of the places that I was called to was that in addition to the EarthSong work there were very personal reasons for my visit. I was being taken to places where I had experienced past lives that have had important impacts upon me this lifetime.

On Rapa Nui/Easter Island I thought I would going to visit the big stone figures and singing to them and the lava stone from which they were carved. Instead, I did most of my singing from my campsite. I stayed in a tent just across the road from the rocks you see in this photo that a fellow camper took of me at sunset one evening.

I also sang up on the rim of the nearest volcano where I could see most of the island and was later led to a sea cave that was the opening to a lava tube. When I sang there the colors in the lava rock across the top of the cave glowed intensely.
When I landed in Santiago I was immediately whisked away by bus up north, experiencing all sorts of unexpected "helping hands" along the way. Arriving in San Pedro de Atacama, Chile I felt very connected to this volcano (Licancabur) from the first moment I saw it.

Photo by Waltraud Heber 2013 Licancabur

I overdid it my first day in San Pedro, not realizing that the altitude was 2480 meters rather than feet. My feet and ankles and lower legs got so swollen that capillaries burst. So I spent most of my week there in bed with my feet up. The hostel I stayed at was on the side of town closest to the volcano and I did most of the energy work from my bed.

While I was there I first dreamt about and then was shown a place that triggered the memory of a lifetime where I was sacrificed as a 15 yr. old virgin. It was at the top of cliff that had a clear view of Licancabur. I'm quite sure I must have had many happy moments up there leading up to the ceremony that ended that lifetime.

I met the man who in that Incan lifetime was the priest that cut out my heart while I was still alive. Only the most perfect children were selected for the sacrifice. I have recently been having difficulties with my heart and felt I was shown this past life in order to facilitate the healing of my heart this lifetime. The memory also helped me understand the feeling I've had of needing to hide my true self.

By the time I got to Lake Titicaca, it was very clear that I needed to spend two weeks on Isla de Amantani. I stayed with a Qechua family and because of the extreme altitude I once again spent a lot of my time in bed. Since I had no TV, no internet, no electricity for my computer, no cell phone, no books, no sudoku puzzles, and I didn't have to prepare or cook any of my food or wash dishes, life became very simple and present moment. I spent lots of time gazing out the window at Lake

Titicaca and the Andes of Bolivia, absorbing the incredibly peaceful and deeply grounded energy of Lake Titicaca and tuning into the Lemurian lifetime I experienced on that island long ago.

Over the two week period I spent on Amantani I was able to little by little lengthen my walks so that by the Solstice I was able to climb up to the top of the island and sing and connect to so many of you in the place where several of us co-created ceremonies together many thousands of years ago.

I have been extremely blessed to have had the past 3 weeks to recover, assimilate and begin to integrate the profound effects of that trip, staying with special friends in Hamilton on the North Island of New Zealand.

They took me sailing to Rangitoto, the youngest of the volcanoes in the Auckland area, and feeling the difference in the quality of Earth energy there after the deep, still ancient energies of Lake Titicaca was quite profound. Rangitoto felt very vibrant and young and new and alive. We were blessed by dolphins swimming around us during our return to the harbor.

My guidance is to go to Tonga next, to visit and sing to an island that is 40 million years old, and to sing to and swim with the whales.

My heartfelt thanks to those of you who have helped support my EarthSong work with your generous donations!

Many blessings to all of you on your journeys of expansion and transformation!!!!!

I also sang up on the rim of the nearest volcano where I could see most of the island and was later led to a sea cave that was the opening to a lava tube.  When I sang there the colors in the lava rock across the top of the cave glowed intensely.  It felt like validation that my attempts at communion with the earth energies and spirits of the place were being acknowledged.

I have been extremely blessed to have had the past 3 weeks to recover, assimilate and begin to integrate the profound effects of that trip, staying with special friends in Hamilton on the North Island of New Zealand.  A great deal of what I have needed time to assimilate is this new way of living where I am so complexly connected multi-dimensionally and focusing on my vibrational level of being rather than on making things happen by doing, controlling them with my rational mind.  

For the 5 weeks in South America, by listening to my guidance, I was totally taken care of everywhere I went in South America.  I came back with all my luggage, nothing was stolen, I caught no diseases.  I met wonderful, kind, warm-hearted people everywhere I went, fellow travelers as well as local people.  The timing for connecting with each bus, plane, boat, etc. was magical.  The vehicle would be leaving just when I needed to move on.  Each place I stayed had room for me for the length of time I needed to stay even though I hadn't made reservations.  

My friends in Hamilton recently took me sailing to Rangitoto, the youngest of the volcanoes in the Auckland area, and feeling the difference in the quality of Earth energy there after the deep, still ancient energies of Lake Titicaca was quite profound.  The energy of Rangitoto felt very vibrant and young and new and alive.  We were blessed by dolphins swimming around us during our return to the harbor.

My guidance is to go to Tonga next, to visit and sing to an island that is 40 million years old, and to sing to and swim with the whales.

I am extremely grateful for all the love and support and energy that I could feel so many of you beaming my way!  My heartfelt thanks to those of you who have helped support my EarthSong work with your generous donations!  

Many blessings to all of you on your own journeys of expansion and transformation!!!!!

Greetings from San Pedro de Atacama, Chile

June 4, 2013

I find myself on an incredible journey, feeling totally supported in amazing ways.  I'm currently sitting in my little room at Hostel Tuyasto in San Pedro de Atacama (altitude is 2480m) which is in the northern part of Chile not too awfully far from the Bolivian border.   The land is high desert here, with incredible views of the Andes' volcanoes.  San Pedro is near very large salt flats and flamingo lagoons.

I was able to sing to the volcanoes at sunset last night after climbing up to the crest of a hill in the Valley of the Moon.  The shadows and colors were gorgeous and constantly changing.  A sacred moment for me.

I was very blessed to sing to the Earth on Rapa Nui/Easter Island at the last super full moon in May.  Felt very connected to New Zealand and Hawaii and my human links there as well to the other places I have traveled to for my EarthSong work and to other places around the world where I have put down energetic roots.

It was a bit daunting to set out on this journey with so little money and so little Spanish, but I have been taken care of in the most amazing ways and have discovered there are loving, caring, helpful and supportive people of every race, nationality, age, gender everywhere.  It is truly a journey of the heart.

I didn't bring a camera on this trip, but a couple of times I have been met someone who's taken a couple pictures of me or for me.  Hopefully in the near future I'll be able to add a photo of the Andes' volcanoes that someone took last night.

This one is the view I had from my tent on Easter Island, taken at sunset by Damien Hamilton Wood:

My tent at the campground on Rapa Nui faced out towards New Zealand and Hawaii.  I felt really locked into the Pacific triangle when I sang there.

When I leave San Pedro in a couple of days, I will be heading up north to Peru and Lake Titicaca.
It feels like I will be at the lake, hopefully out on one of the floating islands for the new moon, Solstice and/or full moon.  We'll see!!

The guidance I'm getting is quite strong and I am being very well taken care of.

I feel deeply connected to those who hold me in their hearts as I stretch and grow on this journey to the sacred ancient lands of South America.

Thank you all for your loving support.  Special thanks to my parents for making this trip possible.

The Next 7 Generations

This is a drawing I made of "Interconnectedness".  So many of us are feeling our interconnections more and more strongly these days, as we vividly experience how all of our thoughts, lives and decisions touch each other's and the planet's.  One little pulse in one place ripples throughout the whole.  

"How will the lives of the next 7 generations be touched by you today?"  is the chorus of a song has been on my mind a lot these days, so I've put video footage to it and uploaded it to YouTube.  

I dedicate "The Next 7 Generations" to the inspiring people all over the world who care deeply for the Earth and all her various life forms, who are imagining and creating new ways of living in harmony with the Earth and her cycles and seasons and who empower others to become all they can be.

The song "The Next 7 Generations" was recorded back in 1995 and the video clips were filmed recently (2013) on the South Island of New Zealand.  

While putting The Next 7 Generations together I have become acutely aware of the many, many people have touched my life and my heart through the years, and who have contributed to the creation of this one little video (as well as to all the others I have recently uploaded to youtube):  

Spiritual teachers and fellow travelers from the past thirty years who encouraged me to open the doors into the deep, dark places within myself - a process that allowed me to drastically change the course of my life.

Men and women who have supported my unfolding, sharing their true selves with me, inspiring and encouraging me to follow my dreams to become a much larger, more empowered self than I was ever taught I could be as a young child in our "modern", technological society.

Individuals and families who have welcomed me into their homes all over the world, allowing me to experience different ways of living, doing and being.

Talented and skilled individuals who have assisted, contributed, answered my questions, and shared their knowledge about their areas of artistic or technical expertise and passionate interest.

The non-physical guides and masters, the ancient ones and the ancestor spirits, Gaia and the elementals and all the multi-dimensional energies of light and love that dance with me.

To all of you, I say thank you, thank you, THANK YOU!!!!!

I am extremely blessed by all the different ways you have touched my life.

Namaste!

Song of the Dolphins and Sing to the Morning

There are two more EarthSong videos now available on YouTube!

The dolphins featured in Song of the Dolphins are the same ones I have swum with over the years and who have taught me so much about joyously living life, holographic transmissions, multi-dimensionality, and being in the "pod" mind:  "We are all doing this together!".

The song was written many, many years ago for a friend who loved the dolphins and I think it was her loving connection to them that finally got me into the water receiving their many gifts directly myself.

The very special, heart-centered underwater video photography was done by two people who also swim with, and deeply love the dolphins.  Contact info for them is in the movies credits.

I hope this video reaches the children and young people all over the world.  Please pass it on to anyone who you hold close to you in your heart.  The dolphin sounds contain  energies that help us ALL remember who we truly are and how we ALL belong to this beautiful blue planet.  As we remember, we are able to consciously and cooperatively co-create the New Earth together.

Song of the Dolphins

Creating Sing to the Morning has led to remarkable relationship with bumblebees.  When I was close to finishing the song, I got to the point where I felt that there was one more verse that needed to be concluded.  When it finally came in:

"Sing to the morning, sing to the dancing trees, 

Sing to the morning see to the soft gentle breeze,

Sing to the morning, sing 'til the bees start to hum,

Sing to the morning, sing 'til we all are ONE!

I realized that it's message perfectly described the whole point of singing to the Earth.  The singing does indeed gift my energy to the Earth, but more importantly, singing with loving intent raises my own vibrational frequency until I feel with a deep heart knowingness that I AM ONE with all creation.

That feeling of deep connection to the Earth and Cosmos is amazing and I heartily recommend singing to the Earth and observing what happens within yourself and as well as how Mama Earth responds.

While singing to the ocean at a special spot early in the mornings during my visits to Hawaii, I would stand way, way out on a broad lava shelf, next to the water singing and aligning myself with the ocean rhythms.  A lone bumblebee would come visit me each time, even though there were no flowers anywhere near me.  

Then for a couple days it didn't come and I started wondering why.  Then I realized I hadn't been singing Sing to the Morning those days.   I sang Sing to the Morning the next time and sure enough there came my bumblebee friend.  Magic!

When I was working on the Earth's Gifts sacred art pieces I experienced a huge bumblebee hovering extremely close to me right over my heart for what seemed like a very long period of time.  It was an incredibly intense healing experience!

While I was gathering video clips to use in Energy Is Moving, the 6th part of the Earth Shift Meditations series, the bumblebee I was videoing one morning buzzed straight at my camera.  It felt like it was saying, "Yeah, I'm very happy to star in your movie!"

Sing to the Morning

These times are intense! So many powerful energies of various kinds are stirring up stuff within all of us so that it can be cleared, cleansed, transformed and transmuted.  My intent is to offer these videos in support your personal journey into expressing even more of your own magnificence!  The world needs us ALL to be all we can be!!!!

PS I deeply appreciate the support that's coming in for my Chile and Peru trip!!!  Thank You!!!

Greetings from Christchurch, New Zealand!

I am very pleased to be able to share the new Earth Shift Meditation video series that I've just uploaded to YouTube for all of you.  Feedback so far, suggests that these videos are vibrational catalysts that can help us all to connect our hearts more deeply to the Earth and spiritual energies, so I invite you view them in quiet surroundings, at a time when you can enter easily into a deeper, meditative space.

They tell the story of what I've been learning from the Earth this past 9 months while living in my van on the South Island of New Zealand.   The videos are quite short. It only takes about a half an hour to view the whole series of 6.  Last year's Earth's Gifts video series , is now available on YouTube as well. 

These are magical times for owning and expressing our creative abilities and claiming our power in all areas of our lives.  What an extraordinary opportunity we now have to join with Gaia to help co-create the New Earth!  With that in mind I have set up a blog site, EarthSong Network Share, and I would so love to have each one of you visit the site and share at least one of the magical moments you, yourself have had communing with the Earth.    

I've been very blessed the past couple of years to have been able to spend lots of time in very pristine locations here in New Zealand, doing my EarthSong earth energy work and creating these videos.   I am deeply grateful to all of the many physical and non-physical beings, energies and entities that have contributed to the creation of this series, so generously supporting my work in a multitude of ways.  This has truly been a multi-dimensional project! 

I hope you'll take time to enjoy the results and pass these links on to your friends.

May 2013 be outrageously wonderful, magical, delightful and heart-felt for each one of you!

Namaste,

Leslie Lightfall
