Blessed New Year! 2018

Greetings and Blessed New Year from Lake Shastina!

I have just uploaded a new video to Youtube: Creating Toning Circles - Part 2, and wish to share it with you all. The process of making it has been quite different than what I went through to create Part 1.  

On Christmas day, I found a lovely sunny, pristine spot just north of Mt. Shasta to begin, but was interrupted by gunshots from target practice somewhere nearby.  I returned the next day to find an enthusiastic group of dirt bike motorcyclists enjoying the area and didn’t even try to continue filming at that time.  Three days later, in very different, cold, foggy conditions, I recorded the rest of what you will see.  

Feeling a bit challenged, I asked the spirits of the land, the elementals, and the spirits who walk with me, what was most important to share with everyone at this particular time on the planet about preparing for communion with the Earth in order to gift her with human energy.  So what you will see is what came through me in that moment.  When one train after another shared the soundscape, I had to surrender to the “It is what is!”-ness of that location.

When I shared the completed video with my two housemates, I was asked, “But what about the sounding? What do you actually do?”  I responded that the step-by-step information is included in my Creational Sounding Series that I mention in the video.

But the question got me to thinking.  I have been assuming that my next step for the making of Part 3 would be to invite a small group of people to help me demonstrate different ways of toning and sounding.  I have been planning on setting up some ZOOM conference video calls where our explorations could be videoed, and have mentally pictured filming a few of us out on the land toning together.

As I have been trying to envision exactly what that would look like, I have realized my work (or perhaps my conscious awareness of my work) is being taken to a whole different level.  As I have traveled to different locations through the years to sing, listen, and commune with the Earth, what comes through me and the groups I work with is always different.  How am I to demonstrate this process when what actually happens is always different?  Toning in each unique situation combines the coming together of a particular group of people interacting with a particular piece of land and with the spirits that inter-are with that place at that time and with those particular individuals.  We tone and sound and move together until we can feel that we have reached a state of balance and harmony.

So what people have to discover each time we do this is, what kind of sounds are meant to be toned/sounded in order to bring alignment, balance, and harmony to their particular group, and with their particular piece of land.  It is not only the physical process of making sounds that is involved, but more importantly, the development of each individual’s intuitive abilities that has to expand beyond previously experienced parameters in order for individuals and groups to open to this form of sonic communion, harmonization and gifting of energy to the Earth.

If you feel called to participate in either one of these next-step projects (creating videos of a group of us toning/singing/sounding to gift energy to the Earth, or participating in ZOOM video conference calls), please contact me and let me know. 


One last note:  On the afternoon of New Year’s Eve, I unexpectedly found myself at a war memorial with absolutely stunning statues that represented various experiences associated with war.  I pondered why I was there, and felt like it was most appropriate for the closing of this year to witness and feel deep compassion for all those who have been involved in warfare as part of their Earth experience.

Yesterday, New Year’s Day, I participated in a global meditation called 7 Days of Rest, during which we all envisioned a blanket of peace surrounding the Earth.  We were encouraged to take these first seven days of the new year to be quiet and go into the stillness to envision the New Earth that we most want to create.   For me that would be a return to the Earth being a beautiful garden with lots and lots of wild and natural places - forests and oceans and deserts allowed to be what they are each naturally meant to be.   Joining the meditation and hearing what other participants were envisioning felt like a lovely and meaningful way to begin the New Year!

2018 is going to be full of choices to make on every level of our being.  It is up to each one of us to be aware of and consciously choose what vibrational state of consciousness we are in as we make each one of them.  

May 2018 be even more magical and wonder-full for you than you can possibly imagine!

Namaste,
Leslie

Gifting Gaia


Greetings from Lake Shastina!

After a very “wild ride” leaving the peacefulness of the Hokianga region of the North Island of New Zealand to visit more good friends in the 4th largest NZ city and then on to international travel, I am finally settling in to my new, peaceful nest.  Once again I am located near Lake Shastina, just north of Mt. Shasta.  I am incredibly blessed to have a most wonderful view of the mountain while sitting in my room!!!  This morning’s predawn show was spectacular!  (See photo above.) 

The December Solstice is fast approaching and I encourage everyone to take time to go out in nature and sing/tone/chant/dance and send prayers of gratitude and appreciation to Mama Earth.  A dear friend just sent me this link to a profoundly important video about our physical bodies needing direct contact with the surface and energy of the Earth in order to remain healthy:  Down To Earth.

DECEMBER SOLSTICE
In my personal experience, there is a three-day window at each Solstice and Equinox when the Earth is best able to receive energy from human beings.  These are very important times to stop, take time out to listen to the Earth, commune directly with Gaia, align with the changes she is making for the coming season, and to gift our highest and finest human energy to the Earth through singing, sounding, dancing, ceremony, celebration and prayers of gratitude.  The particular way we choose to honor and gift her is far less important than our clear and powerful intention to give back human energy to nourish her and to commune with her in a respectful, reverential and honoring way.

The Earth can best receive our offerings of human energy in healthy places, so find a beautiful spot in nature to gift her in whichever manner you feel most called to share energy with her.  

Gathering in harmonious groups to do this builds energy as we weave ourselves together as a community, amplifying what any one person can contribute individually.

This morning when I woke up, instead of seeing a network of sound circles, I saw a sound network sphere.  People all over the world joining together to gift energy to the Earth through toning/chanting/singing.  Embracing the Earth with a human HUMMMMMMMM of gratitude and love.  (Thank you Pamela for planting that seed!)

The time of the Solstice here on the west coast of the USA is Dec. 21, 8:28AM, Pacific Standard Time.  You can use the Time Zone Converter to convert to the time of the Solstice in your location HERE.

Note:  Several people told me they couldn’t get any sound on the Creating Toning Circles video I sent out several weeks ago, so I have amped up the sound, re-uploaded the revised version.  However, please note that the video IS SILENT during the opening drive into Volcano Nat’l Park scene.  Don’t expect sound until I am seated and start to speak.  


We are once again heading into a period of extremely potent and transformational waves of energy hitting the planet (Info HERE).

Up here in the northern hemisphere we are entering into winter, a time when we are called to stillness, deepening our roots and our connection with the Earth, building up energy for new growth to come in the spring.  I hope you will all continue to take good care of yourselves, listening to your bodies and giving them Earth time and silence and whatever else they most need to stayed aligned and balanced through these intensely transformational times.

Many blessings and much love,
Leslie

New Moon - Hokianga, New Zealand

Greetings from the Hokianga, North Island, NewZealand!




I feel so blessed to be here on my good friend Pania’s land, staying in her little house truck parked right next to the house.  The land here speaks very loudly and it is calling to be allowed to be itself, to serve as a peaceful sanctuary.




It is a place where people can come to easily commune with the spirits of the land: the Elementals, the Ancestral spirits and Ancient Ones and the Celestial beings that flow through this place.  Particularly in the part of the property that is native bush, you can feel the lively conversation between all the different life forms going on.



I sang/toned the very first night I was here, trying to shift vibrational states after an intense19 hours in travel mode, dealing with airports, international security procedures, and flights.

I was amazed to feel how the land here engaged with my sounds and how I could experience the vibrations I was making in an almost visual type of way as well as kinesthetically.  It was absolutely stunning to feel what is possible to experience when interacting with healthy land in these new, higher frequency energies in which we are all now immersed. 

For those of you who connect with me, I’ll be here in the Hokianga, facilitating a toning circle for the New Moon.  We will be consciously setting our intention for what we want to create during the coming lunar cycle.  

Our main focus will be on gifting our loving human energy to Mama Earth here in this healthy spot.  Using our own vocal sounds to send energy to the Gaia organism, so that she can receive it, transform it and send it where it is most needed on the planet right now. 

Blessings to all,
Leslie

Creating Toning Circles Videos


I woke up with the inspiration to create this video yesterday morning while I was still here in Volcano, Hawaii - and it "popped out" very quickly. I was shown how powerfully we can assist with the Earth's and Humanity's ascension process by toning. Both as individuals and particularly by forming groups and intentionally gifting human energy to the Gaia organism. I want to share it with everyone to encourage everyone to gift energy directly with Mama Earth and to help everyone understand why it is so important to take time out to do so.   Namaste.



The creation of this video while living here just north of Mt. Shasta was quite a different process.  Interrupted by nearby target practice on a beautiful, sunny Christmas day,  I had to return a couple of different times before finally completing the video on a very cold, totally foggy day.   I surrendered and was shown how important it is to become constantly aware of our own state of consciousness and what vibrational state we are in as this is the state that creates our reality and magnetizes our experiences to us.

Creating Toning Circles

Greetings from Volcano, Hawaii!

Coming out of a year of intense recalibration and reorganization of myself and my path of service, I have been pondering how to best to contribute to the shift in consciousness that is required for humans make in order to align with Gaia’s ascending energies at this time.

I woke up this morning seeing people creating toning circles.  Groups of people that come together to intentionally move energy through their bodies using their own vocal sounds.  I have had that vision for many years, but this morning I saw how these circles can be of immense service right now and why they are so important at this time in our planet’s evolutionary process.

The Earth is fully engaged in her ascension process now and there are huge forces of purification and detoxification that have been activated.  We humans are being presented with a wide variety of severely challenging situations by Mama Earth that provide the opportunity for each of us directly experience how we are cells within the body of the Gaia organism and how we must become more consciously aware of our roles as co-creators with Gaia of our earthly experience.  

We must choose whether we are going to be healthy cells, consciously aware of our intended role within the Gaia organism, our actions serving the health of the entire organism, or whether we are going to unconsciously play a cancerous role and need to be eliminated in order for Gaia to survive.  These are indeed challenging times in which to be alive on Planet Earth!!!

As I travel around the world working with very subtle energies, I have become very aware - often painfully aware - of the kinds of energies so many humans are carrying these days and how unaware so many of them are of their actual vibrational state.  Modern culture tends to promote a vibrational state that is actually quite toxic to living organisms.

I met a man a few weeks ago, whose energy felt very red-hot, jaggedy and intense.  He was joking, laughingly, about his recent hospital experiences, but his energy was rigid and sharp-edged and painful for me to experience.  I had been watching videos of the wildfires in the Napa area because my mother and sister are both living there.  His energy felt very, very much like the energy I had observed in the raging fires.  

Raging fires, hurricanes, and earthquakes are more intense and powerfully destructive when fueled and fed by intense human emotions of fear, anger, and rage.  These emotions are running rampant in some places on the planet and magnetize the kind of elemental forces needed to clear them and replace them with compassion and love.

So many humans have become so used to vibrating in non-peaceful, non-joyful ways, that they are simply unaware of how out of alignment they actually are on a day-to-day, moment-to-moment basis.  So these non-peaceful, non-joyful energies help to increase the destructive power of elemental storms designed to return each place to a more balanced state.

So stop and take time to listen to yourself at a vibrational level during the day.  If your energy is “off,” use your voice to move sound through your body to get it flowing smoothly and harmoniously once again.  If you are in a situation where you are unable to make sound for some reason, do “silent” toning and imagine yourself moving energy through your body with sound.

Toning, sounding, chanting, singing - all the different ways of using your voice to move energy are tremendously effective in providing a means of quickly changing your vibrational state and balancing your own energies.  Carolyn Conger, a spiritual teacher I worked with many, many years ago told us that toning/sounding was one of the fastest ways that anyone can use to shift their vibrational state to a higher frequency.

Toning in a group (where two or more are gathered!) allows a time and space to focus on shifting one’s vibrational state to a frequency of inner peacefulness or joyousness.  It also allows for the cross-pollination of energies with every other member of the group involved in the toning session.  

When I am toning out in nature - to ancient stones, trees, sacred sites, etc., I cross-pollinate energy with each one, picking up their energies and sharing the ones I have absorbed in other locations and carry from one place to another.

When people gather in a circle to tone together at a deep heart level, they cross-pollinate the energies that they each carry with the other members of the group.  Time and time again I have observed this toning process to create deep communion and a feeling of deep connection and mutual support between the participants by the time group harmony is achieved.  A toning group can hugely contribute to the health and well-being of their communities by coming together to consciously shift their own vibrational states and to intentionally send loving human energy to Gaia as a group.  

I have already posted a series of Youtube videos about Creational Sounding that can help you get started.  If you have any questions for me about how to start a toning circle, please send them to me right away.

I will be creating a youtube video to answer these questions in order to help people get their toning groups started.  When I get my internet situation stabilized, I will be setting up conference audio/video calls to work with interested groups.  

I look forward to hearing from you.  Email works best for me.  I’ll try to find and respond to messages on FB as well.  

For those of you who connect with me, I will be here on the Big Island of Hawaii for the Full Moon.  

Namaste,

Leslie

Mountain Magic


I finally made it up to Panther Meadows a couple of days ago after spending the past two months living in Mt. Shasta City (northern California).   Yesterday a new friend took me up even higher on the mountain as she wanted to revisit a spring and little meadow area.  I felt called by a particular peak we came to on the way to the meadow and to stopped to commune with the mountain energies at that spot.  

The cloud level lowered and the mists swirled in.


It felt like the message the mountain was giving me is that when life is swirling and misting and it's hard to see into the far distance that that is a good time to focus on whatever's right in front of you.  To just be present in the moment.  

After returning home, I noticed how cleansed I felt after the experience.  Like I had been thoroughly scoured out and deeply cleansed by the mountain's pure energies. 

It reminded me of a couple of songs I wrote twenty years ago after spending time in Alaskan wilderness.

WILDERNESS IS CALLING



OH MOTHER

Equinox, Sept. 22/23, 2017

I hope you are all planning to create or participate in some sort of ceremony to honor and bless the earth during the time of the coming Equinox, Sept. 22 - 23, 2017.  

Solstices and Equinoxes are the times during which the Earth is best able to fully receive energy from us humans, and she certainly needs all the loving, compassionate energy we can give to her right now!!!

This painting shows the vision I was given ten years ago of how there are energetic caverns beneath the earth where energy is stored.  In many places, humans have depleted those energy stores without giving back.  The pink represents our love as we sing and dance our gift of our human energy to Mama Earth.  The yellow represents the ley lines that she uses to move the energy around the planet.  The orange represents our pink energy being transformed by the earth and being then taken where SHE feels it most needs to be used or stored at any given time.



For those of you who connect with me, I will in Mt. Shasta for the Equinox and will be facilitating a Sound Sculpture meditation and co-creational event on Saturday morning, Sept. 23 up on the mountain.  This Sound Sculpture practice is very similar to one that we created together to commune with Earth and Divine energies during Lemurian times.

Please make time at the Equinox to to join together with others in your community to gift loving human energy to the Earth and the entire Web of Life.

Solstice at Uluru and Kata Tjuta

Kata Tjuta at sunset last night after my day-long visit

Greetings from Uluru/Kata Tjuta!    

I have been very busy, guided moment by moment, creating my “nest,” and getting to know this place and the various communities of beings physical and non- who reside in and through this area in preparation for the energy work at the Solstice.  

For those of you who connect with me I will out in the National Park (most likely be in the Valley of the Winds at Kata Tjuta) creating a sound sculpture ceremony for this coming Solstice.

I would love to have everyone hold Uluru and Kata Tjuta and all the natural sacred sites in the world in their hearts and send them huge waves of love, as well as all the people who work in these places and manage the land and create the policies that shape possible experiences for those who visit.  

There is an incredible amount of vibrational pollution here (sound, light, EMF, etc) caused by modern society’s need for its mechanized, technological ways of doing things.  Wouldn’t it be wonderful if these places became places that taught people and allowed them to experience simpler ways of living their lives in closer alignment with the natural world.

Here are pictures of Uluru

and the Valley of the Winds.



I am and will be connecting with you all in my heart from there on the Solstice.

Rainbow Magic


New Moon, May 25, 2017 - Big Island of Hawaii:

The Rainbow Serpent continues to lead me on, deepening my ability to commune with the Earth.  And the humpback whales continue to teach me about streaming my rainbow colors as I walk through life.

If you've been following my journey then you will remember the Prayer Stick that I made for 2017 and how while I was filming it, energy poured through me, causing it to dance.  During my shamanic journeying class with Sandra Ingerman during Jan.- March, 2017,  I had several journeys in which the Rainbow Serpent appeared.

After I ceremonially “sang” three women up on the top of Mauna Kea during the time of the April New Moon, my Huna friend, Iliana told me that the singing had brought rainbow colors that were flowing into the mountain.  The day after the ceremony, it suddenly felt like what needed to be done on the Big Island was complete, and tuning in, was guided to go to Kauai, where very Ancient energies made themselves known to me at sacred Anahola.  It felt like I was being downloaded with energies and memories that connected me to the very deep ancient times when the planet was being formed.

After 10 days and a surprisingly and extremely peaceful and very quiet Full Moon, I realized I was complete with what needed to happen on Kauai and discovered that we were now to return to the Big Island. It felt like the ancient energies of Kauai accompanied me and I heard, “From the oldest to the youngest.”   That we were transferring energy from the oldest island to the youngest.

Rainbow colored energy has definitely been a big part of my experience here on the Big Island.  Returning after the visit to Kauai, I finally got to see Rainbow Falls when the rainbow was actually happening.  

I have spent most of my time during this second visit up at Volcano, witnessing the amazing sight of the lava dancing whenever the lava lake rises to a height where the surface can be seen from the museum.  I thought to myself wouldn’t it be wonderful to see a rainbow that touched into the crater and a couple of days later, there it was!   At first it looked like an ordinary rainbow, but then it formed a very intricate layer of colors within the outer rainbow (you can barely see them in the video, but they were absolutely awesome) and then added a whole other separate arc to form a double rainbow.  Exquisitely beautiful.  I’ve seen lots of rainbows in my life, but I’ve never seen anything like this one.  Truly magical.  Truly a blessing!

Discovering the rainbow-colored, sparkling lava stones has been a huge gift and I have made several trips out to visit them.   Their abundance started me looking for sparkles everywhere and am finding that when I look, I find them in the most amazing places.

My camera is unable to catch it, but when you walk around near the Kilauea outlook there is volcanic glass (called Pele’s hair) everywhere that sparkles in the sunshine.

Here’s a very short video so you can see some of the magic for yourself:



The Rainbow Serpent continues to call to me onward.   This time to come visit.   I leave the Big Island for Uluru (Ayers Rock in Australia) this coming Tuesday, May 30th.

Aloha to you all.

Greeting the Big Island

Laupahoehoe at dawn


The days since I arrived on the Big Island April 3rd have been a fascinating experience as I am discovering that the me that has returned is not the same me that left a year or so ago.  In one situation after another I find that I am no longer automatically caught up in the previous default setting type of responses I used to make and am finding that whoever I have now become does not want to do things in the old accustomed ways.

So it's quite an adventure observing what happens as the new me emerges and responds in new ways in one situation.  Here are some pictures I'd like to share for those of you who are not on FB of some of the special places, beaches, waterfalls, trees, etc. that I've been visiting as I said Hello to the Island.
