Last night’s Spirit Walk was surrounded by great inspiration and magic! Some of you might know that I was working with Eagle medicine in the past week? Well, I did not believe my eyes when we arrived on the spot high up in the moors where gathered for the “your body speaks” experience. To our extreme delight and excitement, we discovered what was awaiting us there. A giant totem pole carved out with one huge wooden eagle sitting on a branch! (who was looking straight at the full moon) We were all in awe!!After everyone found a place to sit, it was my turn to approach the wooden eagle. I touched it in deep respect and love and wondered what its story was. Then I looked down at the earth (why? It was dark and you could see almost nothing) and saw a vague form resembling a feather. I bent down and was surprised to pick up a wooden eagle feather. If that is not magic .. working with the eagle energy at home and then finding such a gift on a spot where I have not been for 2 years. I am humbled to see Creation in action.
The first thing Mario and I did was to get our drums out and sing the Eagle chant taught to us by Jana Runnalls. When we drum and sing, we honour our teacher as well as the energies connected to the song/chant. As soon as we started to honour Eagle with his song, the wind picked up strongly and surrounded us with Eagle’s inspiration. Trees whispered in anticipation. The full moon was beautiful to see and feel. Through our eyes, we drank her liquid love. The sky was open and stars looked down on this special ceremony in honour of our bodies. The eagle and the elementals helped us to gain insight of how we can return balance to the elemental powers in our bodies.
Each then built a portable and personal ‘circle of power’, filled with the insights and energies that are needed to restore their personal balance. By stepping into our personal circles, we breathed those energies into our bodies, hearts and minds. We stepped away renewed and rebalanced.
Later, at the fairy tree we rejoiced and handed out wild blackberry liqueur wine and scrumptious rich brownies which were well received by humans and fairies alike. We had a glorious evening. Another special memory to add to our hearts and the global consciousness.
