Nature Communication

Published February 1, 2022 by tindertender

“O Tiger-lily!” said Alice, addressing herself to one that was waving gracefully about in the wind, “I wish you could talk!”

“We can talk,” said the Tiger-lily, “when there’s anybody worth talking to.”

Alice thinks that because the flowers are, well, flowers, that they cannot speak, reason or communicate. They are not like her, and therefore she thinks they cannot ever understand or connect with her. Alice assumes the same applies in the opposite direction, but to her surprise, the flowers in the world Through the Looking Glass can speak – and they are very critical, very picky and very aware of their choices. While they also make assumptions, thinking Alice to be a flower like them, yet unlike them, they reveal that most of the time they do not speak, because they feel there simply isn’t anybody worth talking to.

Alice then realizes the flowers have recognized her as someone worth talking to … perhaps because she has praised their beauty and simply wished to be able to communicate. She also has humility and a desire to understand.

Do not make assumptions about people, creatures or beings who seem too different for you to communicate with. There is always a way to bridge the gap between us. If you request for these beings to speak with you and stay open to that possibility, there will be communication. This is especially important when working with the plant kingdom – trees and flowers, elementals and faery energy.

Be a person worth communicating with. Open your heart and mind, and express your desire. In that way, new bonds and cords of understanding can grow between the human world and the wonders all about us.

You are being asked not to make assumptions. Be open to possibilities that seem to be outside rational expectation. Attempts to communicate with beings from other realms – within nature, spiritual planes or even just humans it is thought there is no chance of speaking to or being understood by. Be open and express the desire for communication. Be more lateral and less literal about the ways communication can take place. Be a being worth communicating with – this will go far!

The Story Of A Sad Tree

Published January 30, 2022 by tindertender

I am so happy. I am a seedling. My two leaves feel the warmth of the sun. I am in a forest, with many other trees. I call them my friends. I have grown much. I love being a tree. People don’t ‘see’ us. But I have my friends, that makes me happy.

Ohhh… there is a fire! Many of my friends are burned but I am still alive. People come and cut down my burned friends. Now I am all alone. I miss my friends. I feel so very sad, so very sad! It makes me sick. My leaves are turning brown and dry.

The tree doctor comes. He says that I am sick. Then they cut me down. Now I am watching from high above. I miss being a tree. I loved it.

The soul who was this young tree, is now a woman. One day man came and cut down the trees in front of her house. She became emotional and cried. Not knowing why…..

Still A Part Of Nature

Published January 5, 2022 by tindertender

Someone made a comment to me recently saying, “I would be happy when Humans can go back to Nature.” I’ve been pondering this for days. When were Humans told they WEREN’T Nature? Where did the concept of separation of man & nature come from?

Did it come when they put shoes on our feet to stop us from grounding with the Earth? Did it come when they put fake hair, nails & make up on women to say our natural appearance was not good enough?

Did the separation happen when they gave us “concrete jungles” to live in and packed us in metropolis areas that seemed like a step up but really were cages? Did our separation come in when the Internet began chaining us to desks and time clocks ticked away?

At some point, while you sat in your office looking out the window didn’t a reminder come?We overlooked the bird as a simple thing. We took butterflies and bees as just “insects”. We took trees for granted as just sources for paper. We took the grass as an annoyance to mow.

But where did those ideas come from? Was it all the perverse system that we were born in to? Or are we also to blame for allowing the eyes that God gave us to become glazed over for material objects and a false sense of “success”.

The man or woman who can go out on a hike and be met by the Sun and know that it’s the Creator’s presence should be the success. Not the man with Millions sitting at a lonesome desk.

The man or woman who can share a bond with an animal and understand the emotions of that being is a success. Not the conglomerates that are built off slave wages and humans backs.

The man or woman who can be alone and in the quiet and feel the Love still beating in their chest EVEN AFTER this world has tried to destroy it; THAT’S THE SUCCESS WE ALL SHOULD STRIVE FOR.

But at no time, through any of these situations or circumstances do I recall anyone saying to us, YOU AND NATURE ARE NO LONGER 1. Because every tree, drop of honey, body of water, blade of grass and animal all came from the CREATOR MOST HIGH. And so have YOU!

Satan has been so busy thinking all of his tricky ways and traps were going to prove that we all would turn away from God. And while many have accepted the way things are… A vast majority has AWAKENED to SEE the Illusions.

But part of SEEING is also RECOGNIZING that the Creator has been awaiting you to look up, to feel his presence and remember the “Foot Steps in the Sand”. When you think he has left you…. He was really carrying you through the Valleys.

For that, a Spirit of Gratitude needs to come upon us that are still here. We are still standing. We are still Awake. We are still Alive as a Collective and as a part of his grand design.

Man/Woman are still a part of Nature. And Nature is still a part of you. Just open your eyes a little wider.

Merging With Nature

Published December 27, 2021 by tindertender

People oftentimes tend to walk or run or hike or chat to another as they move through nature. To really embrace the medicine of nature, try stopping and consciously, intentionally, merging with an aspect of it that appeals to you. Be that a tree, a river, a view, a flower, an animal a cave, a rock etc. Let go Into its stillness, its wildness, its adaptability, its natural rhythm…… and become one. Even for a moment. You are it…you are nature. Remember that. All it takes is a little bit of imagination, some conscious deep breathing and a good dose of willingness.

Blessings ✨🌿🐾

Bees Resilient

Published November 30, 2021 by tindertender

Like an enforced hibernation, many of the beehives on La Palma in the Canary Islands were buried under volcanic ash after the Cumbre Vieja erupted in late September.

These six hives were situated just 600 meters from the volcano. When they were finally dug out from under a meter of ash on Nov. 6, rescuers – who suffered a sting here and there – found that five of the six hives had survived, with hundreds of thousands of bees undoubtedly happy to see blue skies again.

They had sealed themselves in by creating propolis, a resinous material with which they plugged any gaps, and were able to survive on their food reserves, as the owner had not yet collected the summer honey.

Sighted recently, location will remain undisclosed to deter hunters, the White Stag is sacred and must not be hunted.

This is a sign that there’s still hope.

Another beautiful day in the wilderness

Published March 17, 2021 by tindertender

My boss gave me the day off due to slow business.

I took advantage of it!

Began my day with a wonderful drive and stopped for breakfast … avocado eggs Benedict.

Then I went for a nice mineral bath and wrap.

I stopped by the store and picked up a bouquet for GAIA.

Went for a walk near her waters and left the flowers for her.

Walked some more, picking up trash others had left behind as I went.

A little history:

This rock face along the River is very nice, I love the structure of it.

Some little flowers …

And the wind … oh how lovely!
