The two Raccoons that attacked my feeder last Thursday returned again for a daylight burglary next day. This marauder has actually struck this pose to re-think its approach after this one failed. They paused after a couple of failed attempts and then one climbed up the tree holding the feeder and soon the feeder was on the ground.

 

It was great fun seeing them involved in their hijinks again.

"Y la gente se quedó en casa, y leyeron libros, y escucharon, y descansaron, y se ejercitaron.

Tambien crearon arte, y jugaron juegos, y aprendieron nuevas formas de ser, y estuvieron quietos.

Y escucharon más.

Algunos meditaron, otros rezaron

algunos incluso bailaron.

Hubo algunos que incluso conocieron sus sombras.

Y las personas empezaron a pensar diferente.

Y las personas comenzaron a sanar.

Y, en la ausencia de personas viviendo de maneras ignorantes, peligrosas, en automático, y sin corazón, el planeta comenzo a sanar.

Y cuando el peligro pasó, las personas se volvieron a reunir, lamentaron sus pérdidas y tomaron nuevas decisiones.

Y soñaron nuevas imágenes.

Y crearon nuevas maneras de vivir y sanaron al planeta completamente, así como ellas habían sido sanadas."

 

"And the people stayed at home, and read books, and listened, and rested, and exercised.

They also created art, and played games, and learned new ways of being, and they were still.

And they heard more.

Some meditated, others prayed

some even danced.

There were some who even knew their shadows.

And people started to think differently.

And people started to heal.

And, in the absence of people living in ignorant, dangerous, automatic, and heartless ways, the planet began to heal.

And when the danger passed, people came back together, mourned their losses, and made new decisions.

And they dreamed new images.

And they created new ways of living and completely healed the planet, just as they had been healed. "

If your world is cycling out of control - take time to connect with mother earth.

Deep slow pragmatic breaths through the nose, slowly exhaling through the mouth.

Take the oxygen in deeper and deeper, with each breath imagining new regenerative life force energy into the deepest cells of your body.

 

On release imagine all the stress being released from every muscle in your body.

From the tips of your toes to the top of your head.

Releasing all the negative tension from your body.

 

Sit in nature, feel the wind and the sun trickling all over your body as if mother nature is giving you a gentle subtle massage.

 

Waterfalls, the oceans, forests are full of negative irons - counteracting the over supply of positive irons we are subjected to in air conditioning, inside buildings, traffic and pollution.

 

Salt lamps are a great source close to your bed at night or next to your computer. Alternatively, invest in an ionizer.

 

Drink fresh clean filtered water, pick fruits and plants fresh from a farm or your own vegie patch. Choose wholesome foods from mother nature. Avoid all sugar.

 

Invest in traditional therapies - seek them out - they have been around long before we existed. God given plants and herbal extracts for healing and repairing.

 

Nurture yourself - mother nature is surrounding you with her healing energy.

 

Now more than ever as the storm is upon humanity - we are being asked to dig deep, to find our courage.

 

Find the joy in the simple things of life.

More time with loved ones, walks along the beach or into the forest.

 

Dance, sing, laugh as much as you can.

 

Now more than ever before humanity will be challenged in ways that we have never experienced in our lifetime.

Find your tribe - we are being connected - humanity is shifting into unity.

 

Remember LOVE is the most powerful of all emotion.

LOVE will prevail and collectively we will create a new and wonderful world.

 

Trust in the process.

 

Know there is plenty of help - pray, eat and sleep.

As I was hiking along the Bruce trail when I found this spot by the water stream. I love this area as it is calm and away from the chaos of the big city. It was early in the morning and there were no people around so one can meditate peacefully.

Way back in Indonesia's history, places like this had a spiritual - and practical - significance for Java's would-be rulers. Many ambitious young princes and noblemen would come in search of 'kasekten' - a sacred energy that could win them ascendency to positions of power, realised through meditation in holy or historic places. Known as "tapa", this mystic asceticism involved meditating in the icy water of mountain streams, hanging upside-down from the branches of banyan trees, or going wild in the jungles of Java for weeks at a time. Senopati - the famous founder of Java's Mataram kingdom - was thought to have earned his prestige through pilgrimage to places such as this, in the misty outer reaches of Surakarta.

I was lucky the bird stood still for quite a while so I could use a slow shutter speed to avoid high ISO.
