Ezekiel 34:11-31

Published November 14, 2021 by tindertender

For this is what the Sovereign Lord Jehovah has said, “Here I am, I myself, and I will search for my sheep and care for them. According to the care of one feeding his drove in the day of his coming to be in the midst of his sheep that have been spread abroad, that is the way I shall care for my sheep; and I will deliver them out of all the places to which they have been scattered in the day of clouds and thick gloom. And I will bring them out from the peoples and collect them together from the lands and bring them in onto their soil and feed them on the mountains of Israel, by the streambeds and by all the dwelling places of the land. In a good pasturage I shall feed them, and on Israel’s high mountains their abiding place will come to be. There they will lie down in a good abiding place, and on a fat pasturage they will feed upon the mountains of Israel.

I myself shall feed my sheep, and I myself shall make them lie down. The lost one I shall search for, and the dispersed one I shall bring back, and the broken one I shall bandage and the ailing one I shall strengthen, but the fat one and the strong one I shall annihilate. I shall feed that one with judgement.

And as for you my sheep, here I am judging between a sheep and a sheep, between the rams and the he-goats. Is it such a little thing for you men that on the very best pasturage you feed but the rest of your pasturages you should trample down with your feet, and that the clear waters you drink but the ones left over you should foul by stamping with your very feet? And as for my sheep, on the pasture ground trampled by your feet should they feed and the water befouled by the stamping of your feet should they drink?

Here I am, I myself, and I shall certainly judge between a plump sheep and a lean sheep, for the reason that with flank and with shoulder you kept pushing and with your horns you kept shoving all the sickened ones until you had scattered them to the outside. And I will save my sheep, and they will no longer become something for plunder; and I will judge between a sheep and a sheep. And I will raise up over them one shepherd. And I myself, Jehovah, will become their God, and my servant David a chieftain in the midst of them.

And I will conclude with them a covenant of peace, and I shall certainly cause the injurious wild beast to cease out of the land, and they will actually dwell in the wilderness in security and sleep in the forests. And I will make them the surroundings of my hill a blessing, and I will cause the pouring rain to descend at this time. Pouring rains of blessing there will prove to be. And the tree of the field must give its fruitage, and the land itself will give its yield, and they will actually prove to be on their soil in security. And they will have to know that I am Jehovah when I break the bars of their yoke and I have delivered them out of the hand of those who had been using them as slaves. And they will no longer become something to plunder for the nations; and as regards the wild beast of the earth, it will not devour them, and they will actually dwell in security, with no one to make them tremble.

And I will raise up for them a planting for a name, and they will no more become those taken away by famine in the land, and they will no longer bear the humiliation by the nations. And they will have to know that I, Jehovah their God, am with them and that they are my people.

And as regards you my sheep, the sheep of my pasturing, you are earthling men, I am your God, is the utterance of the Sovereign Lord Jehovah.”

Mind you, I believe Israel is metaphorical for the entirety of the planet …. all mountains, hills, forests … Food Forests … The new Garden of Eden.

Garden of Eden

Published November 14, 2021 by tindertender

The Garden of Eden was essentially a Food Forest, where all things needed for healthy sacred living were provided. The story has it that Eve ate the apple, and caused the expulsion of the people. This idea is rediculous, as that is what the food was there for …. to eat, for the body to be sustained.

The idea of expulsion in this way is not fact. It is a story to subject the feminine to guilt and shame.

Let us prove the thought.

We see in the world as it stands today, the self-sufficiency of the people, their autonomy, has been subjugated. Those of the dominating “New World” cannot dare to think of life with a free people, a people who have the food they need growing fresh and pure, waters that flow clean, who have the wherewithal to be self-sufficient, to care for their every need as it is provided to them by the earth mother.

We see in the current state of affairs dominators everywhere telling the people they must be injected with toxins against their will, or they will not be able to work, to provide for themselves or their families. There is talk of the head banker wanting to dismantle personal bank accounts and savings, there is talk of dismantling a persons right to property.

This is an attack on self-sufficiency, on autonomy.

How many times has the Garden of Eden been dismantled, and the people evicted from the land which provides for their needs? Look to the indigenous cultures, review what their life has been like … they once roamed the land, having their needs fulfilled by the earth mother.

It is time to move away from those who desire to dominate.

Build your Food Forest. Grow nut trees, fruit trees, and berry bushes to compliment the yearly garden worked with ones own two hands. Grow the sustenance required for the body, and share it with the world. Share the seed so others can participate in growing this Garden of Eden in many locations. Create ….. and use the violations against you to fuel your creation. Allow your beautiful creation to feast upon the violations, churning them, and turning them into fodder for the forest, so that it grows aplenty and strong.

The stories we’ve been told are just that, written by those whose lone desire is to dominate all life upon this planet, to harvest it, to use it, to have it work for them, building their fantasy land …..

The people will rise.

The people will rise and build their Gardens. They will do this in many areas of the world, and these Gardens will grow, will flourish, and they will eventually meet in the middle, one with the other, until all of the land is a food forest, nurturing the people as they roam to and fro, as well as the animal kingdom.

It is a choice.

We have been trained to rely on the dominator for our food and housing.

We will build a different New World. A Sacred World, where the feminine is honored, not used in sex slavery where her most intimate energies are harvested by those who must have them in order to create. Feeders … feeding on the Primordial Light within all beings, indeed within all that grows and flows upon the earth.

We see the world as it is drained of its life-force energy.

And we choose ….

Some choose to take the jab, to fall in line, to attack their human family for their audacity to stand for autonomy.

Some, choosing autonomy, begin planting their Food Forests, creating, rebuilding, the sweet sustenance the earth and all who dwell upon her need to thrive.

Be proud of the work you will be doing. It is you who will heal the land, the earth. It is you, creator, who will participate in bringing back the health of this world. It is you, as the Primordial Light of Creation itself moves through you, who will initiate and see abundance flourish in all lands.

Take a stand. Permit the violations to empower your Will to Create. Allow the violations to feed your efforts. Just as the trees cleanse and purify the air we breathe, just as the waters churn and oxygenate the waters that so many life forms inhabit, the toxic world of dominance shall feed your creation.

All foul things shall be made new again … cleansed, purified, fresh.

Affirmations ~ November 14, 2021

Neuroplasticity happens when connections are made across the neural network in our brain. Essentially, our brain creates super-highways that it travels quickly in response to outside stimuli. Thought patterns that are repeated often create massive highways that the thought travels on. The more the thought occurs, the more it will occur.

One of the most effective ways to reprogram the mind, to reformat the consciousness, is through using affirmative statements. I share with you examples that you may find helpful should you wish to use them to assist in reformatting the thinking mind.

Sun of Justice
Albrecht Dürer (after), 1566

I am becoming blessed with the ability to truly see. To see what is real rather than what appears to be.

Love is within all. It provides a way through which healing can occur and peace embodied.

I shift perspective.

I look through the eyes of love rather than fear.

I am expanding my perception.

My ability to see the light in all things is unfolding. I nourish this in my heart with loving acceptance.

The powers of transformation are at my command.

I can change any failure into success. My only limits are those I impose upon myself.

I have skill and talent; I am developing them. I do everything I need to be at my best.

I believe in destiny. I have purpose and reason for being.

I am beginning a new phase in life that promises prosperity.

I remember life’s exquisite loves. I honor them. They have been my teachers.

I have the ability to bring my dreams into form.

I am a bridge between heaven and earth. I am connected to both worlds.

The Quest

Plunge boldly into the thick of life, and seize it where you will, it is always interesting. ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Your perception is most accurate when it’s inside out. You’ve crossed the threshold from the ordinary world into the special world. It is here the rules of the ego and polite society, no longer apply. In the ordinary world, it was acceptable to run from the things that scared you. In the special world, you walk toward those things with open arms. In the ordinary world, it was acceptable to associate falling with failing. In the special world, it is an invitation to explore your depth. In the ordinary world, it was customary to pretend you don’t have a shadow. In the special world, your shadow is where your greatest gifts arise. In the ordinary world, when something was bizarre you disregarded it as irrelevant. In the special world, strangeness is an indicator of value and importance. In the ordinary world, it was acceptable to blame other people for your difficulties. In the special world, you take full responsibility for your experience.

Mantra ::
I become more lucid when I choose to see the world from an inside-out perspective.

Free From Judgement, Free To Love

Published November 13, 2021 by tindertender

Imagine a world so infused with bliss, love and wonder that you naturally and always feel as safe as a nourished, cherished baby in the arms of the universal mother. Life mothers us, with kindness, and sometimes when we need it to grow, through challenge as well. Accepting this mothering – in its gentle and fierce faces – can be difficult at times. Some are even part of her plan to help mother others so that they too can surrender fear and live more freely.

You are learning about mothering and being mothered. You might not do this in a typical way. It might be through bearing children, but it could also be through adopting children, raising children or otherwise taking care of children and loving them as if they were your own.

You might also be learning how to mother on a rather different scale, working with groups, communities, causes or purposes that need your devotion, your energy, your belief in their value, and your willingness to be the wild tigress or the supportive shoulder to lean upon, in order to bring those worthwhile groups to life.

You may also be an aspect of the universal mother on a spiritual level. Some people that do this are male, some are female. Some have children and some do not. Some are healers and some work in seemingly more ordinary professions. They have a mothering aspect in common and they love and respect life. They believe in life, are moved by compassion and are genuinly encouraging and respectful of people. Rather than taking perverse delight when someone stumbles, they want to help. They are ordinary people with an extraordinary, natural tendency to nurture life around them.

You are amongst the universal mothers special clan of nurturing spirits that help to honor life on this planet. Open yourself to receive more nurturing. You can do this for yourself. You can also choose to open up and allow others to nurture you. It might make you feel a little vulnerable at first, especially if you are not used to doing this, but you don’t have to worry. You will get used to valuing yourself enough to know that needing love and affection from another is an opportunity, not only for you to receive, but for someone else to give, which involves them being received too. If you are tired and have been taking care of everyone else, then take some time to shift the pattern and allow life to support you too. The universal mother helps the helpers so as they can keep helping. It works rather well, you see, for those that give so much to also receive abundantly.

If you have been asking life for a solution to a specific difficulty you have been having, a solution is in gestation right now. The situation is already being sorted out and the resolution will come to fruition very soon. Hold tight and wait for the imminent birth of that resolution.

If you are interested in working with children, the inner child, with art therapy for emotional healing or any sort of uninhibited creative expression that helps dislodge social conditioning and open up to more spontaneous, feeling-based existence – then yes, go ahead and do it. The universal mother is supporting you and you cannot get a more powerful ally.

You may find that you are loving, or soon will love, in a different way. You may worry about this love, given that it defies what you have known or been taught about love. Perhaps you are becoming able to love another tremendously, even though you don’t have much of a personal relationship with them. You might question if this love is real. It is real, it is just happening at a different level to the love and attachment you experience when you are involved in a personal relationship with someone. It is not more or less, it is just a different facet of love. It may be that you are opening up to love the planet and her creatures, including the animals, the ocean-dwelling life, your own body, the trees and so on, more than before. You may feel passionately purposeful about giving your time and energy to causes that protect and nurture the earth and her creatures. You are affirmed in this love too. The universal mother is operating through you to nurture life. She will support you in your work, so that you can continue to come from love and not become drained, depleted or lost in despair or fear or futility. Instead, you will be energized and expanded by your dedicated service to life.

If you are feeling lonely and in need of greater nurturing from others, stop, relax, center and settle into your body to feel your connection to life itself. The air in your lungs is the same air that moves the trees. The water in your blood is the same water that fills the oceans and is moved by the phases of the moon. The flesh of your body is the same substance as the body of the earth itself. The heat in your digestive system is the same fire and heat as that from the sun. Feel this connection, then do something nice for another without agenda. Make a donation, even just a small one, smile, say a prayer, send out a good thought or make a wish for another. That’s it. You have connected to life again and in doing so, life can connect with you. And so it shall.

Healing process ::
Place your hand over your lower belly and say the following, “I now release from my body, mind and heart any negative mothering experiences that would prevent me from receiving the healing grace, love and support of the universal mother through the natural flow of life. May I be blessed and held in her loving embrace so that I may grow into all that I am. So be it.”

Breathe in and out. As you breathe in, imagine you are drawing in the healing love of the universal mother. As you breathe out, feel your body release negative energy. You don’t need to be conscious of exactly what is being released. You might sense the release as emotion or as a sludge leaving the body and then you might not sense anything at all. Whatever happens is your own process and is just right for you. Remember, if you cannot sense it consciously something is happening at a level below conscious awareness. You can still have confidence that the process is working for you in the best way.

Relax and when you feel ready, simply place your hands on your heart and send love for a moment. Then return to your day or evening.
