March 20th is the Vernal Equinox. It is a time of balance and harmony when night and day are of equal length. As the beginning of Spring, it is a time for the renewal of life. The cold lifelessness of Winter melts, rivers swell with the water of life, the fields are verdant once again, and the seeds which have slept in the earth burst forth into blooms of flowers as the warmth of the sun initiates the urge for life to renew itself.
In harmony with the Earth, we also sow seeds – the seeds of our intention. We sow them so they may blossom forth into our hopes and dreams. In sowing these seeds, we recognize the profound forces of Nature at work in the eternal cycle of life—death— rebirth.
We seek to unite ourselves with the dynamic flow of the universe —to unite ourselves to the rebirth of the earth in Spring. In doing this we express our gratitude for the gift of life, as well as to bring our lives into harmony with the earth as it expresses its balance.
We give thanks to the Earth. Thank you for providing us a home by allowing us to dwell upon her. Thanks to all of the peoples of the Earth – the two-legged, four-legged, the stone people, the water people, all the beings of this Earth that make up her web of life, of which we are all part. We pledge to love, support, and care for our Mother Earth and all who dwell upon and within her.
Ceremony
Breathe deeply … imagine yourself seated in your holy, peaceful place … the beach, a meadow, the mountains, wherever you are at peace within yourself.
Now peacefully focus on creating a state of Gratitude deep within you, from your heart. As you focus on your physical heart generating the feeling of gratitude, a waveform of energy begins to flow throughout your body.
These waves emanate outward from your heart to encompass your entire body. As the flow of energy fills your body, there is a spontaneous arising of ecstasy–cellular ecstasy that grows and spreads within you.
As you begin to recognize the shift within, quietly give thanks for remembering the presence of this powerful tool for transformation. Offer a heartfelt ‘thank you’ to yourself — amplifying the essence, presence, and power of Gratitude within.
As your heart holds a pattern of Gratitude, a wave begins to flood beyond your body, the waking ripples growing to connect your heart in harmony with the frequency of Gratitude resonating with others, too, who are now heart-fully focusing on Gratitude … creating interwoven fields of energetic transformation and doors of possibility allowing a space for creation between beings who are choosing to vibrate with Peace, Love, and Gratitude.
This rippling wave of Love and Gratitude continues to spread from this place out into the world. Waves and waves of gratitude, enveloping the Earth, covering the surface of the Earth with standing waves of gratitude, immersing ourselves, the planet, Yes! all creation in a hearty wave of Gratitude. Hearts and minds worldwide connecting and co-creating, Divinely aligned as One.
We are that wave of gratitude, connecting our human heart into the Earth’s grid and back via a Sacred architecture, shaping the Earth’s field with this gratitude. It is time to listen to the voice of our deep feelings from the heart. In so doing, we save the Earth, so that the planet Earth can take its true place in the universe, as a planet of love and light.”
Blessings to you all.
So be it and so it is.
And we are One
Amen
Aho
