We are about to enter the imaginal realm with a shared vision,
Part prayer,
Part meditation,
A transformative journey together,
Beginning here and now and never ending,
As we invoke our power to love,
To receive love,
To be love,
To be a font of love in the world,
In the universe,
In the cosmos.
We receive and transmit energies of healing,
Comfort,
Strengthening and encouragement.
Find a comfortable position,
Keeping our heart open.
Begin with a few deep breaths as you settle into your being,
Here and now.
Let yourself sink down into the radiant center of your heart.
In the dream of the sanctuary moon,
We follow the brightness as the stars guide us to a hidden spring,
Singing,
Remember who you are.
We are not lost,
But nothing is familiar,
And no paths lead backward.
In this rare garden,
Deep in the forest,
We take our rest.
A surge of nurture and grace courses through our bodies.
We drink it in,
Fill our jars,
And bathe in sparkling pools of living water.
We sense a gentle invitation.
Feed life,
And life will feed us.
Become a willing agent of grace.
From the inward shining of our own heart,
Feelings of love and bliss are flowing into our heart space.
Like hollow bones,
We are channels.
We gently radiate that support and blessing to others around us.
In loving connection with all who are present,
With spiritual guides,
Angelic beings,
Ancestors of all races and places,
The great cloud of witnesses,
We behold and become the intimate face of God beside us.
We can direct our heart energy to others.
We might raise our hands as part of our heart space,
Facing the group or person we are transmitting to.
We may even sense the loving energy flowing through our hands.
And now,
We move to our feet center,
Experiencing the pull of gravity as a divine embrace of our mothering earth.
We are grounded and infused with the Christ Sophia energy of the divine and material in all things,
Including our physical bodies,
Through our feet center.
We sense that the earth is truly alive.
We are living,
Breathing manifestation of this beautiful and generous planet.
Our relationship to the earth is transformed.
We will walk differently and care for her differently.
We will fall completely in love with the earth.
These are the words of Thich Nhat Hanh,
Come to us anew.
We feel energy traveling along these embodied channels of mother earth.
We receive and we can send Christic energy to others through our feet.
In the magnificent mycelial structure underground,
We are fed and we feed one another.
And we can now move to our spiritual womb,
Into the warm embrace of God being us.
Of God being us.
Flowing from the source like rivers of living water.
This gut,
Womb energy is filled with divine identity,
Courage,
And birthing creativity.
We receive the divine fire in our belly to find the courage and passion to move on to fuller living.
And we can also transmit this to others.
We can energetically and emotionally synchronize with others by joining our energy fields.
We might sense the aura or flow of energy in others.
Wordlessly we offer our presence and welcome the divine spark latent in each soul.
We reflect this pure and potent goodness received and sent in communion.
We can now move to our head center,
Into the cleared vibrant stillness.
We can expand into our shared vastness beyond,
Opening to the infinite face of God beyond us.
Into the mind of Christ consciousness,
Which innervates all things.
We exist in the silent exchange of energy,
In deep time and infinite space,
In the great mystery of our interbeing.
And now in our expanding radiance,
We're simply allowing our whole being and our collective being to rest in the web of this sacred communion.
In the dream of the synergy moon,
We return again to the heart of the forest.
How many moons have passed since the springs here began to parch and sour from the burden of our estrangement.
A patchwork of neighbors,
Streams toward this common locus,
Beings of the forest,
Human critters from beyond our circle,
Even unseen helpers arrive to lend support.
Hands and tools in hand,
We each take up a task joyfully suited to our skills.
What is this great structure we raise from the ground?
And are the waters made safe by our many hands?
Yes,
It is a cathedral of belonging.
We are the rescue plan.
