A very special episode of breath and Light. We practice our sadhana incorporating the first two Sounds that Heal for releasing grief and fear. Then we travel into the realms of Light to connect with this powerful time in our world, recognizing all that is falling away and welcoming the new Earth that is arising.
This episode was recorded on Maui during the Autumnal Equinox on September 22, 2021. According to Machealle Wright at Perelandra Nature Research Station in Virginia, Nature begins Her new year at this moment. If you’d like an explanation as to why this is so, look here: https://www.perelandra-ltd.com/pdf/TPGW_2012_Sol-Eqx_Excerpt.pdf
Here is Nature speaking to Machaelle about this cycle and human participation: "Human awareness is a vital dynamic within the broad picture of reality. It is not some random, minor personality trait, as many seem to feel. It is a dynamic with its own power that can be linked with the planet's natural cycles, thus benefitting both and becoming another example of co-creative partnership.
"So as you consciously link your awareness to nature’s cycles, and your awareness and understanding about those cycles broaden and deepen, the activity triggered by the event is strengthened to the degree directly proportional to your level of awareness. With this, the released energies permeate the planet and all that exists on the planet more directly and clearly."
Our recognition of and connection to the cycles of Equinox and Solstice become part of our expanding awareness as cosmic and planetary citizens. I invite you to partner with Nature to set the tone for your own new cycle. Think of what you would like to enfold, expand, amplify for your New Year. This can be in an overall sense or for a specific project (or both). Write it down if you like. In this way you are linking your personal cycle to the nature’s cycles thereby strengthening and clarifying it many times over. (from Perelandra excerpt).
