Into the Abstract Adventure

The fire of inspiration burns brightly in my heart as my mind pours over with ideas of projects that will serve in the betterment of all my relations. Visions, missions, steps and words fill my mind as I feel my feet floating off the ground. I look about me and realize I am like a leaf in the breeze, in full surrender to the will of the wind, flowing to the current of the mystery. From here I can co-create little, my visions dissolve into the ethers from whence they came and the manifestation of the service remains only an illusion. I must get grounded, send out roots and begin to connect to the earth. Only then can I begin to manifest my dreams.
Reality hits me like the cold sensation of the waterfall on a hot day, shockingly refreshing and cleansing. I look about me feeling the life thriving all around in this jungle of opportunity. I observe the tall trees reaching up to the sky, stretching to touch the sun. I hear the call of birds whose song reflects the love of the mother goddess to her children of earth, lullabies to sooth the heart and calm the mind. My heart connects to the energy pulsing in this place an all-encompassing love that feeds my every cell. My feet soak up the moisture longing to dig themselves deep into the flesh of the jungle and dance with roots, mycelium and worms. I become the jungle and breathe it in to the rhythm of my heartbeat. I am here now.
Again I look within and I see a strong, powerful me, compassionate and patient. Standing beside a weary, stressed child ego striving to control and failing. The elder of me holds her hands out to embrace the youth, who stubbornly refuses and clings to the stresses of the mind. Another wave of emotion ripples across the scene and then the teary eyes of the child ego pour forward and she falls into the loving caress of the elder.  The two begin to dissolve into each other as their hearts merge. I am me in my essence unified. My judge and the victim evolved fully into the protector and the witness, holding my heart safe in the rhythm of unity. I am one. The waves of emotion sculpt the dance of my division and unity, as we separate into archetypes and merge again into unity. This dance continues as the weather changes, yet always I am radiant awareness.
These reflections of self ground me during the reign of the mystery. I feel sometimes like I am blind feeling around a dark forest in search of something to nurture me, and other times I am an eagle who’s elevation and sight are crystal clear and precise, knowing every detail of the landscape. Soon the roots of this tree of life will penetrate deep into the manifest and I will be able to see beyond the waves into a reality where the visions that arise, abide, change and pass away will be experienced in their fullness and I will be forever changed. In each breath I am forever changed and evolving into deeper states of self and unity. Thank you, Spirit of this gift of life.

Adventures on a veggie bus

Peace and blessings family,
Alana and Jason here, we are sending out an email update on our great adventure into the mystery. Wow, what a journey we are on.
Many moons have passed and we are still fully in the mystery. Its amazing the leap of faith it takes to sell off all most everything, buy an old school bus/rv, convert it to veggie oil and head south. We spent 3 months following the bread crumbs of synchronicity until we landed in Costa Rica and began living la Pura Vida. We were blessed with a beautiful house-sitting gig that has landed us on a mountain in the jungle. It gave us a chance to unload the bus and lighten our load. Now we are here networking with intentional communities as we find our perfect fit. Its kind of like searching for a soulmate, we get to know the community and see if we resonate, then we say thanks we’ll be back and check out the next one until we find the one that gives us that sweet butterfly in your stomach feel and feeds our spirit. Last weekend we went to a Creating Intentional Communities Workshop and that gave us a whole lot of fuel for our fire, so this next month we’ll be back on the road again checking out the whole country and finding our perfect climate. We’re going to a regional rainbow gathering next week and then headed north to Nosara. Beaches, jungle, waterfalls, friends, and organic food abound here and we are feeling so blessed. Thanks for being who you are, we so appreciate you and how you have touched our lives. May all beings come into harmony.
One love,
Alana
