It comes with great relief for many to see us now entering the final lap to destination summer.  The days are starting to really pick up in heat and the outdoors calls to us.  This summer, I invite us to really spend time attuning to nature and each other in more communal activities.  We spend so much of our lives these days being entrained to electronic devices and really we should be spending an equal amount of time entraining to the frequencies of the natural world which are of tremendous benefit not only for restoring us but also in activating our consciousness in a variety of ways.  It’s known that some of the most healing sounds, for instance, are nature sounds because they are so complex and stimulate the mind-body unlike anything else.  Just think of being in an abundantly green setting, in a forest perhaps, hearing the multifarious bird songs of elaborate frequencies, the intricate melody of water flowing in a nearby stream, the mating hum of insects and the whispers of leaves in the wind.  And that’s just the frequency picked up by the ear!  There is also the frequencies considered by our nose with the fresh air and verdant smells of rich grass and plant life.  In Japan, there is a profound act of cultivating health called ‘tree-bathing’ which literally means walking amidst trees, breathing in the source of fresh air.  Moreover, trees are regarded as exuding energetic fields that are ethereal in nature as their great height pulls down energy from high above where things are more pure.  As science tells us now, energy is information as well and perhaps this is why I often counsel friends and patients of mine whenever they’re besieged by a dilemma in their lives to walk in the park.  Almost always they seem to find a spontaneous spring of wisdom bursting forth! 

As we make the effort to equalize our time between electronics and nature, we’re also invited to spend more time with each other.  This is important because the world is definitely moving to more of a community-based energetic and people power is truly brimming as the true force of democracy as seen in uprisings in the Middle East and now Europe.  People are awakening to the fact that when we come and commune together over shared and beloved values of freedom and integrity, we are a force that no army or tyranny can quell.  By coming together with others more often, we begin to tap into this power, much like the more candles are lit the more light is illuminated.  And with this collective light comes more warmth which nourishes our hearts which are gateways to the unity-consciousness of the love vibration.  The world is set to become less and less a place of individualism and more and more about group-created reality.  Especially as the economy continues to spiral into rebirth as something entirely new, the theme of its evolution seems to be toward something that considers the sustainability of the Earth and the human interests before profits.  Ultimately, the new system is establishing cooperation as its currency.  Now I am no Christian but I find it interesting that Jesus and the teachings of many mystics in other traditions pointed out lucidly that salvation for humanity is loving one another.  In order to do this, we must claim ourselves as foremost human beings, making all national, religious and other cultural identities secondary.  For truly, if we were to share what we have out of the spirit of love and its energy of oneness embracing us all as one human family, what adversity of financial depression or warfare can befall us?  Even if such challenges were to manifest, the spirit of oneness serves as our highest and most advanced response.  Always has and always will. Even more, we can extend such unity consciousness to all creatures, plant and animal, as one family of life!  Think of the infinite power and creativity we’ve just plugged into! Wow!  For some, this won’t stop at simple Earthly identity but even stretch out into the cosmos, where we take infinite shape, meaning every attribute we have is suddenly sustained by the limitless.  So instead of courage, we have infinite courage, infinite love, infinite health and so on.  Incredibly powerful affirmations to take in and radiate out!  We can take guidance from the intrepid government of Bolivia who are the first nation on the planet to pass The Law of Mother Earth which extends the same rights to the Earth as it does human beings.  I believe this act will be remembered in our history as something incredibly meaningful: http://www.ens-newswire.com/ens/apr2011/2011-04-20-01.html (follow the link to read the translation of the law itself! Really beautiful).  We are truly remembering that one of our greatest purposes is to be stewards for the Earth for truly we care for the Earth we are opened to a whole realm of mystical sciences and ecological spirituality that will fulfill us in the highest ways possible.  Working with nature means learning from the greatest teacher of all: creation itself.

So this summer, shine like the Solstice Sun, and see the Sun as a symbol of your essential nature: indomitable light, never going out, radiating out without limit and at light-speed, nourishing all that it contacts with the source of life itself; a burning passion to live and evolve!  And remember, light is energy which is information so lots of light visualizations (i.e. breathing in light, absorbing it into the blood and our being) will help unlock the wisdom of the cosmos coded in photons.  This ain’t even mysticism anymore, folks, it’s science!  May we all become empowered evermore by the nourishment of the universe, ever-stronger in our emboldening times and growing responsibilities to care for the Earth and the greater whole of the human family and ever-loving by the laws of oneness and truth which rule all!  The highest in me sees the highest in you: Namaste!
