Slaves and vegetables!

I have for years used Shamanic Journeying as a tool to find clarity whenever I felt the need. A few months ago one of these moments turned up. It is always easy to see when things are not right – and so much more difficult to find a way through or around these things. We have been growing the garden for the sake of getting good food – and it works extremely well for us. We have got to know many things by trying. We have found our own ways of doing – and along with that a deep sense of natural power emerged. And yet, something was not right! We hadn’t found a way to share our new understandings and knowings with the world around us …. and somehow that’s important for us to do.

At times I have a clear ostrich-hiding-head-in-sand behaviour. If I don’t find a way relatively easy, I might choose to close my eyes to get rid of the problem. It never works for long before a sense of unsettlement arises. It comes back to me – I simply have to look for a way with open eyes!

This happened a few months ago, and I went on a journey to find some clarity in how and what to share. These are the highlights of the journey and the answers I found:

“It was a beautiful day – and I took off with the eagle. Nothing better than soaring over beautiful landscapes with a good friend. We turned to the right and flew over a huge forest. It was dark and dense – only pine trees were to be seen.

I felt like having a closer look and dived down to the treetops – sailing just above the forest I saw life down there. The forest was full of slaves! They were held in the dark, working there with blank faces – more like zombies than people. I felt a little shiver in my body and looked away. Eagle never said a word – just pointed to the mountains in the distance. That was where we were heading.

I kept my focus on the mountains – trying to forget about the slaves.

A few moments later we arrived at our destination – and I looked around. Beautiful mountains, naked rock, snow on top, blue sky – but no sun! Where was the sun? How could there be blue sky and no sun to be seen.

I asked my friend – where is the sun?

A hand stretched out from the sky and ripped it open – the sun flooded in.

I saw that the blue sky with no sun is a pretend-life – like being a slave as they were in the forest.

I saw that I had been there before – in my old life.

“Have you forgotten?” – the words came out from the sky as thunder.

I felt inside and I found memories of seeing the sun above – trying to show it to people – and they couldn’t see it. I remembered that once I was turned into a light-coloured hawk to get to learn about these people holding slaves. I remembered the insight I once got of how to eliminate the darkness that is created by greed – placing the little lights. Finding the powerful way of peace – instead of the disempowering way of fight.

How did all this fit?

Sitting on the mountain top with the sun shining on me – these words came out of my mouth:

“I can’t walk the land anymore”   - not just me – “we can’t walk the land anymore”.

I was reminded of Merlin’s word about Papua New Guinea and their arse place – a birth right to land. I was reminded about my childhood drawing with chalk on the asphalt – conquering land – it’s mine!

Who has the right to say we can’t walk the land.  NO ONE!

Who says, we can’t walk the land. – Those people who have turned the world into a big corporate business. “If you behave well – and serve me – you will be rewarded. If you don’t listen to me – you will be punished.”

These are the people feeding us with chemicals – dead stuff wrapped in delicacy. We are slaves! – we eat what they serve.

I asked “What to do?”

The answer came instantly –“Grow vegetables, become strong, eat only locally, organic – feel life again, feel the true power of life!

I asked again, “What can I do?”

– “Tell people that they have to grow veges, feeling life, taking control by letting go.”

I thanked for the answers, and I asked the Sun for a favour before we took off again heading home.

 “Please shine on me!”

It was a powerful and wonderful journey. I am always impressed by the clear simplicity in the answers. Just like life – real life, simple and beautiful.

Merlin and I are in the process of making a dvd about how to grow your own vegetables. It will be launched through our new website www.pioneerways.co.nz – which we are working on at the moment.

There is no way around these things for us – we have to tell about the power of life that we have tapped into via connecting deep to the Earth.

Whether you like it or not is entirely your own choosing. We just feel the urge to give you a chance to get to know about the simplicity in life, the wholeness in life, spiritually, physically and mentally.

We will still maintain our website www.seventh.co.nz where we have our bodycare products, giant crystals, and some of the workshops.

www.pioneerways.co.nz will be mainly an empowering “help to help yourself” – besides some good stories!  - no slaves, no masters – they are slaves as well.

Only free, living, powerful beings celebrating life.
