Breath comes on the wind in Spring
with memories remindes
the fragrance of new life
and life re-emerging

New beginnings, new relationship
new connections
carried on the Wind
and the breath
The movement is one of upward flow

So remember to ground to Grandmother Earth
Plant your feet on the earth
Eyes closed
Open your heart
Raise your hands with fingers spread
Know that you are a part
of the web
walking your Medicine Wheel
continuing your journey


 

Seasons move with the elements 
Fire, Wind, Water and Earth
We move with the seasons

Placing our feet upon the Earth
connecting to all that is
Fire as Sun and nourishment
Wind as Breath and movement
Water as Life and emotion
Earth as Body and soul
This season , one of gathering, sharing, giving 
going within to that place of
visions, thoughts, and dreams
To bring about that which our heart desires
so we can walk the medicine path that
makes us Human Beings
To walk the Spiral bringing the light back
remembering that it is only in seeing 
this connection to all that makes us each who we are 


 

Moving into Summer

Summer is just down the path from where we sit today.
It has been a slow unfolding of spring
The gardens are abundant and full of fragrance of old roses and lavender
 good and green, lush and full of the rains that have graced this land
I am trying to learn, again
Knowing that the Earth in her intelligence holds us in the place
we have created moving moment to moment ,day to day, month to month
In the gardens,hearing and seeing and moving. In concert with the wind, thru my breath.
With my body, as I put my feet upon the earth that nourishes all life.
With the beat of my heart, to know that all life is connected.
Feeding my spirit. Knowing , again...........
Teachers all around me, in the trees, the insects, the animals, the birds and the plants.
The sacred plants that are the food and medicine of life.
I am invited each day by the sun to remember to shine,
to take my vision and my dreams with me as I walk this day.
Not tomorrow, but this day.
In gratitude for this day  and you who sustain me by
your friendship, your knowledge, your words
and your actions.

     Aho,
        Constance

   

We Enter this Season in Deep Relationship

We enter into deep relationship with the Earth
embracing the primal dance
of Earth's relationship to all life
We discover our true nature
our innate indigenous self
which is ancient and all encompassing
not our self separate
We awaken to the deep desire
to share, to co-create
and be of the Earth
We dance again
 

Of New Beginnings

Snow weighs heavy on the Earth
Branches hang low in silouette
Air is fragrant with spring
moving up through the earth
Reminding us of the circle
where we weave our lives
Coming from within
we breath in and out
Still dreaming
of what is to come
Of new beginnings
and earth awakening
Our souls remember
that from which we come
Knowing................

Autumn

Moving into Autumn
the changing
to all that is
being created
green gold and blushed
the color of the trees
Standing open
to heal the air we breath
and move the winds of life
guardians of the rain and sun
receivers of water and spirit

    Gardening 'Our Connection to Gaia'

Gardening is our connection to the earth
and all who live upon it.
The garden is our place of grounding.
A place where we are present in the moment.
A place to let go of the noise of our lives

Gardening is an act of nurturing  the plants,
the insects that pollinate, feast upon and feed our plants
and thus feed and nurture ourselves.
Gardening is an act that keeps us physically, emotionally
and spiritually healthy.

Gardening can be a tomatoe or two in the yard,
a basil plant in a pot on the steps or the patio
or a place where we grow much of our own food
for the summer or to preserve for the coming year.
All are equally healing and equally grounding.

We begin with a thought and from the thought comes
the physical manifestation of that thought- a garden...
It is that simple.

Plant those seeds you dreamed of in the winter .
Go outside and put your hands into the dirt
and feed your mind, body & spirit

      living between the raindrops,
                     Constance
