July 25, 2009 Here in the northeastern United States we've had an extremely rainy spring and summer. Whenever the sun emerges it seems like a precious gift rather than simple business as usual. The Sparkling Lotus garden beds have become a lush jungle-like tangle of healing herbs and beloved flowers. And so much inclement weather has given me extra time to devote to re-ordering the SL mother stock inventory. Each bottle is carefully dusted with a cloth that's dipped in sea salt for extra cleansing and protection. The sheer number of different mother stocks on hand makes this task a lengthy endeavor. Every year the impending process feels daunting to contemplate but, once I'm actually immersed in it, I greatly enjoy taking mindful time to actively appreciate the contents of each individual bottle. Handling these precious healing and illumination allies prompts me to remember the co-creative details of so many different wild-crafted and cultivated essence preparations. This in turn encourages me to stay connected to a positive view of our irreplaceable Mother, the earth, and the wide variety of sentient beings that call her their home. As I work with the mother stocks I've been keeping a list of remedies that need replenishing. The rainy weather hasn't allowed much opportunity for that part of the yearly process. And so a few of the most popular remedies have become especially valuable resources. The limited nature of their availability is a potent mirror for the ebb and flow of other resources that are so important to life on this planet. In my personal healing efforts I've been delighted to work with a Key Lime essence that was co-created back in May. This is a beautiful cleansing agent that also illuminates our individual healing strengths and greatest evolutionary assets. It energizes and amplifies areas our auric field that are sluggish or atrophied. What a gift during this time of ongoing bombardment related to so many challenging life developments that are both personal and global in nature! Another benefit of so much rain is the time it gives me to work on two different writing projects related to the past seven years' research endeavors. In my next update I hope to share more information about this aspect of SLI development and expansion.
