Gently Influencing The Weather: Flood Part 2

Last time I spoke to you about engaging the sun. I want to elaborate on that a bit.

In order to truly welcome the sun it is important to engage it which in this case means to attract it.

If Mother Earth is cleansing herself with rain it is not for us to stop that process but sometimes because we, as human beings, become conditioned to things as we are often conditioned when we are young we become expectant of things to happen even if they are unpleasant or overwhelming.

It is this expectancy which creates an unintentional attachment to the least happening that is good and even expecting the worst. Granted, we might do this sometimes so that we are not disappointed in life but other times if a great many people are expecting the worst - meaning for it to continue raining and continue raining to the point of flood and beyond there must be some people who know how to engage the sun - in short how to attract it.

So this is what I recommend. You have perhaps studied welcoming the sun by now and even tried that out a little bit or at least considered how you might try it out at a time when it is needed. Engaging the sun is a little more so of that.

Here's how to do it. In order to engage the sun you must feel a kinship with it. This does not simply mean pretending to be the sun which others can teach effectively but it must be a kinship that feels safe.

I have mentioned this in other places - perhaps not on these blogs but I'm going to go over this now. This is a method you can use also to purify yourself - meaning to free yourself of energies and entities that may be harming you or could harm you not because they are malevolent but rather because they are lost or unable to find their way. Purification in this sense means that you will be able to release them from your energy body and they will be able to be transfered to where they need to be and it is a win-win for all.

Now this is what to do and the steps must be followed exactly as I've laid out to have the best effect. In this case the sun will not in any way be harmful to you because even though it is the sun in the sky, as we know it to be, the sun is not hot and we are not effected by the heat but rather we are effected benevolently by the light.

This is what to do. Picture yourself to the right of the sun and you can be standing or sitting and if possible actually feel yourself there. Those of you who've learned how to bilocate here, then here, and also here - that's the best way but if not visualize yourself to the right of the sun. Know that the sun will not be harmful. It is strictly a large light experience.

Now move very slowly. It will feel slow but it will take you about - maybe 30 to 40 seconds to move from the right to the left right through the sun and in that process - in that 30 to 40 seconds or maybe even in some cases a minute - possibly a little longer you will feel a lot of stuff fall away from you. And now move all the way through the sun.

As I say, if you can feel yourself moving through that mass of light it would be best but if you simply see it - as in a visualization that will be of some help as well.

When you are done moving from the right to the left simply be where you are - meaning if you are sitting or laying down and relax for a few moments and then open your eyes. See how you feel.

If it wasn't that good for you because it was a visualization then practice the bilocation as I've laid out before.

This is a good way to engage the sun because it allows you to feel the sun as something that is entirely desirable not just a light creating being in our world - alright.

So - when it is raining too much what you do especially if you can bilocate is you experience yourself moving through the sun and when you are doing that - you can be indoors by the way or outdoors, it doesn't make any difference - when you are doing that feel that good feeling you have because the sun has removed the discomfort from you and that friendly feeling will help you to welcome the sun to a greater degree on Earth where you are.

There is one last thing to do here. If you can say the following Living Prayer I recommend you say, "I am asking that all beings here in this area that is flooding or soon to flood feel a sense of great personal warmth and welcome for the sun and to expect the sun to be out, the sky to be blue, the ground to dry up as it is in its most benevolent state and for life to go on in the most benevolent way."

There is a follow up to that as well. When you see people, every time you hear someone say - the rain will never stop or other cynical statements simply say to them the following.

"The sun will be coming soon - expect it" or "I heard that the rain is going to lift and that it will be sunny soon." In short - it is like a suggestive statement you see but it is also to encourage people - alright. It is important to encourage and support people to not just believe something in the face of all evidence to the contrary but to encourage them to encourage others that the rain cycle can return to its normal state of being.

It is important to move beyond expecting the worst even if one is trying to avoid being disappointed. That way the cycle of cynicism can be broken and it is possible even to engage a cycle of optimism. I will say more about a cycle of optimism in times to come here.

Goodlife to you all and goodnight.

Gently Influencing The Weather: Flood Part 1

We find ourselves now in a time when the weather patterns are changing all over the world. In some cases they are subtle - yes - slight changes, not easy to detect requiring scientific instruments and testing. In other places it is dramatic and people who've lived in a place for a long time are stunned at the changes. "What has happened," they might say, "this is not the way it was before!"

So that is one of the big reasons I am giving you all this information on the gentle influence that it's possible to have with the weather and why I'm giving you this is so that you can practice it, not to change a light rain to a sunny day so you can go enjoy the beach but rather so that at times of disaster or impending disaster you can try some of these things and see if these potential disasters can be headed off or at least steered around you and your land into someplace that is more benevolent - perhaps out to sea as in the case of a hurricane which I mentioned before.

Today I am not going to talk about hurricanes or tornados or cyclones or typhoons but rather drenching rain that is not simply relieving a drought but a ongoing rain that is flooding the land - not a temporary thunderstorm type of flood but rather a flood that won't go away that's nearing the top of the dikes or that's threatening to break the dam. You understand what I mean - flood.

So what can you do to welcome the sun? I have spoken about this a bit before but I want to give a little bit more on that.

I feel it's important to engage the sun and appreciate it and therefore I want to suggest you start with this Living Prayer. I recommend you say, "I am asking that I feel a kindred friendship with the sun that is so strong and deep within me that I can invite the sun to be present even in the midst of a downpour."

After you say that just let it settle for a time - at least 5 to 10 minutes before you go out to try anything but it would be better to say this Living Prayer now - eh - before there is a flood. So let that settle within you and I'll say more about this next time.

For now, read up on the things I've linked to and we'll say more in Flood, Part 2.

Goodlife.

Blessing The Land

I recall once after a flood - it was when I was living in the canyon in Arizona. The place I was living had a creek right there and as creeks do - it flooded.

This was a particularly strong flood and it was so strong it rolled rocks and boulders along the creek. If you stood near it during the flood in a safe place but near it, you could hear the clicking sound of the big boulders being moved by the surge of water.

I recall when the flood receded that the trees all looked badly damaged. I was concerned that some of them would not survive.

I recall that I stood out on the bridge - it was a low water bridge which allows the water to flow over it during a flood so even though the bridge was beat up a bit it was still possible to stand on it. I remember standing in the middle of the bridge and inviting benevolent energy to be present to heal the trees and to bring healing energy to the creek bed and to the places where the animals lived and to support the people who lived along the creek.

Within just a few seconds I was surrounded by gold light. There was a twinkling in the light as well and I could see when I looked at the trees a sort of glistening effect.

I feel that it helped the trees because within a few weeks the trees looked so much better and they were already showing new branches with new leaves. I'd like to think that the animals and the people may have benefited as well.

I'd like to suggest to you who live in and around flood areas that you try that as well. Make sure you are standing someplace safe or if you need to, sit someplace safe and ask that benevolent energies come in to support that area.

If you like you could say a Living Prayer which is similar to the one I said. You might say, "I am asking that the most benevolent energy come in now to support and sustain this area and all its life be it plants, animals or people to bring about the most benevolent healing and comfort to recover from this recent flood and may this all occur in the most benevolent way."

You could if you like say that Living Prayer and then if you notice something thats fine. If you don't try to be quiet for a few minutes afterwards because you are the one that is requesting this and so the energy when it comes through will ground itself through you.

You are not necessarily the only source of this energy but as a human being living on Earth you act very much like a lens through which this energy focuses and that is why before, during and after you say this it's good to be quiet and allow the energy to pass through you.

If there is sound around you there's not much you can do about that but see if you can avoid reacting to the sound. It might then be necessary to say this at a time and place when it is less likely that you will have to react to the sound. Thats what I recommend.

Goodlife.

With The Assistance Of Mother Earth And Greenstone

I remember once when I was living in the trailer park that the waters of the creek rose high, very high.

I had been given a piece of greenstone by some friends from New Zealand who were Maori. Greenstone is something very precious to the Maori people and it is something that is found in water and my Maori friend who is a Mystical Man and Shaman said that it worked well with water especially.

Well the water was up very high and I decided that since it was threatening the first two rows of the trailer park and some damage had already been done - my trailer was back several rows - that I would perhaps try the greenstone. I hadn't been sure whether it was alright to try the greenstone before that or whether it was alright to interfere with nature because floods are part of her way of cleansing herself.

Still I was concerned for my neighbors - while none of them was in any danger they were frightened. So I took the greenstone and went with a friend who was someone I was teaching and we went over to the water. Granted the water was not clean but I felt it was necessary to stand in it because I had to address the water as an entity.

I took out the greenstone and encouraging my student to observe but not stare I placed the greenstone in the water. It seemed to glow a little bit - purple. Then I said a Living Prayer requesting that the water be higher on the side that the trailer park was not on.

I realize that sounds ridiculous perhaps, to you since water will be flat across its surface but I asked for what I felt was needed. The greenstone then showed - I could see it and so could my student - a purple image of itself which moved around in a particular cycle above it.

We glanced at it since we did not feel it was appropriate to stare at it doing its work and we stayed for about five or ten minutes saying prayers. Well, what happened next was something that I'm sure many of you will say is not possible but what occurred is that even though the water was predicted to rise it did not rise on the side where the trailer park was on - it rose on the other side where there were no trailers, no people and only the lands of nature.

Granted the only explanation could be that it was rising on a slanted pattern - meaning higher on one side than on the other and I could clearly see that the marker we all used to check how high the water was - which was a post on which the mailbox for the trailer park sat - was covered but that on the side where the trailer park was, that the water had receded.

I thought I'd share this with you not to suggest that I am so grand or anything like that but just to suggest that there are things in nature and in life that we do not understand all the time but which are benevolent and love us and will work with us at times when requested.

Goodlife.

With The Assistance Of Grandmother

There was a time many years ago when I had an opportunity to get to know somebody better after their death then during life - does that not sound strange?

I was living in a trailer park that was in a particularly nice area of Arizona. It was however an area that was prone to floods from time to time - not generally devastating floods but just rises in water.

The person I referred to was my neighbor - lived nearby me. Oh, we would wave - you know how it is - you wave at your neighbor and then you go on about your business. We never really had much of a chance to say anything but, "Hi, how yah doin?" You know, like that.

One day there was an unexpected flood and my neighbor being unused to the area and the way things went there did not know or perhaps forgot that the water would roll over the bridge that led from one place to another and that even though it may not look like very much it could be more that it seemed and it was the case on that day.

It was enough so that her small car which was not very heavy was floated over the bridge and into the water and while my neighbor was strong and athletic she could not fight it and disappeared downstream. Heroic efforts were made by other neighbors to rescue her but it was not possible. Such tragedies happen often and when we read about them or hear about them we are sad and perhaps we say prayers as I often do.

Still this was somebody that I knew, not well granted but a neighbor - quite a shock. Something happened shortly thereafter though that was an unusual event even in my life.

I remember that there was a search on for (I'll call her) Ronni. It was a search and rescue for a time and then it became a recovery for a time. I was sitting in my trailer pondering the suddenness of my neighbor's disappearance when all of a sudden I saw Ronni walking cheerfully along the path that led past my trailer to hers and she looked perfectly joyful, perfectly happy the way she always did - even more cheerful actually.

The thing about it is that she was - I could see her in complete form - she was a light being - beautiful white and gold and I jumped up and looked at her. She glanced at me very surprised but not upset, smiled and continued on her way.

I suppose you could just call this something like a ghost experience but it's not frightening at all. She looked wonderful. I had never seen her look so cheerful. She walked around her trailer, walked around the park a bit and then came back and sat in another part of the trailer and looked at me and she said, "You can see me" and I said, "Yes" and she said, "I had heard that you had gifts and were a Shaman. It's true isn't it" and I said, "Yes."

She said, "I wish we had gotten to know each other better but I don't know how long I'm going to be here" and I said, "You're welcome to stay until you feel the need to move on or you can come and visit anytime you like."

So for the next sixteen hours she would come and go and when she would come by she would sit, though I didn't get the impression she was tired - just putting me at ease perhaps and we'd chat about this and that. Never anything about after death experience. It didn't seem right you know.

She would talk about life in the park and how beautiful it was and how she never had really noticed how beautiful it was during life. It was a pretty place. Many trees, friendly neighbors - a nice place to live.

At one point though and it was about at the sixteenth hour - she was talking about something - I don't remember what and all of a sudden there was a white light behind her and she said, "Oh, Grandmothers here" and I saw with the light - two arms of light reach out and reach around her as one might see someone hug another person from the back and pull her gently towards the light and then there was only the white light and then she was gone.

It was a magical time. I was comforted by seeing her be so happy and heres the postscript - at almost the same time - the recovery operation was successful and she was found. I'm not saying that there was an absolute connection between the recovery and the coming of Grandmother but it seems like there may have been and I'm happy I could be there for her after her passing and I'm feeling it's alright to share this story with you now. I'm hopeful that if any of her friends or relatives read this that they will be comforted to know that she was happy and moved on with the aid of Grandmother.

Goodlife.
