You know sometimes we can take all the wisdom, teaching and sharing with each other as the major way we re-connect to the old ways and traditions. But even in these modern times spending a brief time in nature is still the best teacher for all of us at both a physical and spiritual level. For they are one and the same for there is no separation.
As an example I was out this morning walking my dogs. As usual I gave thanks to the Creator and all that he has given us. The Sacred directions around, above, and below us, and all my relations. I also always acknowledge two large trees where I walk as being the Grandmother and Grandfather trees of the wood. There is a special old oak tree that I visit most mornings, as she, (I call her she as I am sure she is a wise Grandmother Tree), always has words of wisdom to impart to me. Well, this morning as I approached her, a gust of wind blew and I was smothered in her falling leaves. I saw this a sign of one sort or another and what I got was the word CHANGES, which I have been getting for many moons now. She seemed to tell me more though about Changes. That changes are a natural way of things. As the Seasons change her leaves change into leaves that have done there job and now can be let go to be recycled by Mother Earth and Nature. She seemed to say also that we all have to let go of things that have done there job and move on. But we also have to withdraw into ourselves so the lessons and growth we have achieved over the past months can be assimilated inside of us, so we may grow stronger in the coming times ahead. As I said thank you and started to walk away, a crow flew over and landed in her branches. Was the keeper of the Sacred Laws ( Crow) telling me something also?
To me this is a good message that all of us may take heart from. That with the massive changes taken place in the world recently, and still to come, and that if we learn from changes we all will be better and stronger for it.
Whether we live in the City or the country we all have the opportunity to listen to Nature in one form or another. Maybe some of you out there have a teaching from nature that you wish to share?
