Haudenosaunee Thanksgiving Address

00:00:13.157 –> 00:00:28.207

Hello! Happy day of gratitude whether you celebrate thanksgiving or not.

00:00:28.207 –> 00:00:34.406

I wanted to take a moment and just share. Just create some space to be in thanksgiving together.

00:00:34.406 –> 00:00:40.506

I have the traditional who done Asani. I might not have said that correctly.

00:00:40.506 –> 00:00:51.655

Thanksgiving Address, which is a Thanksgiving address in the traditional indigenous call.

00:00:51.655 –> 00:01:17.208

But Iroquois Confederacy. This translation is from the Mohawk tribe which I have lineage.

00:01:17.208 –> 00:01:26.057

Connected to the most so I did some research to find a copy of the Thanksgiving address that my own ancestors would have used traditionally, and what is very neat is that there is this moment that we can take to honor all of our lineage in the magical mothering Facebook.

00:01:26.057 –> 00:01:31.908

Group this lunar cycle that started yesterday with the new moon is happening in the selection lunar cycle.

00:01:31.908 –> 00:01:51.057

So I’m calling this moon the Celestial Lunar cycle, which is where we will be connecting with our ancestors.

00:01:51.057 –> 00:02:02.406

Our guides our people into tease that are not on this physical plane, but in different dimensions, or angels, things like that so if you want to join in over there and be a part of that that is what we’re going to be doing for the next month and today, i’m going to

00:02:02.406 –> 00:02:06.908

Just keep it simply focused on this act of thanksgiving so I’m gonna be reading aw of this page so.

00:02:06.908 –> 00:02:09.506

But I’m excited to create space for all of us for this day.

00:02:09.506 –> 00:02:18.355

Of gratitude.

00:02:18.355 –> 00:02:26.956

The people today we have gathered, and we see that the cycles of life continue.

00:02:26.956 –> 00:02:47.556

We have been given the duty to live in balance and harmony with each other, and all living things.

00:02:47.556 –> 00:02:53.505

So now we bring our minds together as one as we give greetings and thanks to each other, as people, and if we’d like to say it all together if you’re in a space, that you can say at out loud every time, we say now our minds are one the earth, mother we are all thankful

00:02:53.505 –> 00:03:05.559

To our mother the earth, for she gives us all that we need for life.

00:03:05.559 –> 00:03:11.856

She supports our feet as we walk upon her. It gives us joy that she continues to care for us as she has from the beginning of time to our mother.

00:03:11.856 –> 00:03:21.908

We send greetings and thanks. Now our minds are one.

00:03:21.908 –> 00:03:51.307

The waters. We give thanks to all the waters of the world for quenching our thirst and providing us with strength.

00:03:51.307 –> 00:03:56.256

Water is life. We know it’s powers in many forms, waterfalls and rain mists and stream rivers and oceans, with one mind we send greetings and thanks to the spirit of the water now our minds are one the fish we turn our minds to all the fish in the water

00:03:56.256 –> 00:04:05.406

They are instructed to cleanse and purify the water.

00:04:05.406 –> 00:04:11.211

They also give themselves to us as food. We are grateful that we can still come find pure water.

00:04:11.211 –> 00:04:26.856

So we turn now to the fish and send our greetings and thanks.

00:04:26.856 –> 00:04:37.207

Now our minds are one. The plants now we turn toward the vast fields of plant life as far as the I can see, the plants grow working many wonders.

00:04:37.207 –> 00:04:40.706

They sustain many life forms with our minds gathered together, we give thanks and look forward to seeing plant life for many generations to come.

00:04:40.706 –> 00:05:08.057

Now our minds are one

00:05:08.057 –> 00:05:18.307

The food plants. With one mind we turn to honor and thank all of the food plants we harvest from the garden since the beginning of time, the grains, vegetables, beings, and berries have helped the people survive many other living things draw strength from them too, we gather all the plant foods together.

00:05:18.307 –> 00:05:23.107

As one, and send them a greeting of things. Now our minds are one, then the the medicine herbs.

00:05:23.107 –> 00:05:29.956

Now we turn to all the medicine herbs of the world from the beginning.

00:05:29.956 –> 00:05:48.358

They were instructed to take away sickness. They are always rating and ready to hear us.

00:05:48.358 –> 00:06:02.008

We are happy there they are still among us those special few who remember how to use these plants for healing with one mind we send greetings and thanks to the medicines and the keepers other than medicine.

00:06:02.008 –> 00:06:09.356

Now our minds are one the animals we gather our minds together to send greetings, and thanks to all the animal life in the world, they have many things to teach them people.

00:06:09.356 –> 00:06:14.309

We are honored by them when they give up their lives, so that we may use their bodies as food for our people.

00:06:14.309 –> 00:06:18.357

We see them near our homes and in the deep forests.

00:06:18.357 –> 00:06:27.356

We are glad they are still here, and we hope that it will always be so.

00:06:27.356 –> 00:06:34.508

Now our minds are one the trees we now turn our thoughts to the trees.

00:06:34.508 –> 00:06:41.956

The earth has many families of trees who have their own instructions and uses.

00:06:41.956 –> 00:06:49.757

Some provide us with shelter and shade, others with fruit, beauty, and other useful things.

00:06:49.757 –> 00:06:54.057

Many people of the world use a tree as a symbol of peace and strength.

00:06:54.057 –> 00:07:08.106

With one mind we greet and thank the tree of light.

00:07:08.106 –> 00:07:15.606

Now our minds are one, the birds we put our minds together as one and thank all the birds who move and fly about over our heads.

00:07:15.606 –> 00:07:18.557

The Creator gave them beautiful songs. Each day they remind us to enjoy and appreciate life.

00:07:18.557 –> 00:07:21.308

The eagle was chosen to be their leader.

00:07:21.308 –> 00:07:27.305

To all the birds, from the smallest to the largest.

00:07:27.305 –> 00:07:40.607

We send our joyful greetings and things. Now our minds are one.

00:07:40.607 –> 00:07:59.208

The 4 wins we are thankful to the powers we know, as the 4 wins we hear their voices in the moving air as they refresh us and purify the air that we breathe.

00:07:59.208 –> 00:08:08.707

They help us to bring the change of seasons from the 4 directions they come, bringing us messages and giving us strength with one mind, we send our greetings and thanks to the 4 wins now our minds are one the fenders.

00:08:08.707 –> 00:08:18.009

Now we turn to the west, where our grandfather’s, the thunder beings live with lightning and thundering voices.

00:08:18.009 –> 00:08:24.956

They bring with them the water that renews life. We are thankful that they keep those evil things made by the awkwarders underground.

00:08:24.956 –> 00:08:35.608

We bring our minds together as one to send greetings and thanks to our grandfather’s, the Thunderers.

00:08:35.608 –> 00:08:41.360

Now our minds are one the sun, we now send the greetings, and, thanks to our oldest brother, the son each day without fail.

00:08:41.360 –> 00:08:49.757

He travels the sky from east to west, bringing the light of the new day.

00:08:49.757 –> 00:09:12.956

He is the source of all the fliers of life. With one mind we send greetings, and thanks to our brother, the Son.

00:09:12.956 –> 00:09:19.007

Now our minds are one grandmother moon. We put our minds together to give thanks to our oldest grandmother, the Moon, who likes the nighttime sky she is the leader of women all over the world and she governs the movement of the ocean tides by her changing face we measure time.

00:09:19.007 –> 00:09:23.907

And it is the moon who watches over the arrival of children here on earth.

00:09:23.907 –> 00:09:32.406

With one mind we send greetings, and thanks to our grandmother, the moon.

00:09:32.406 –> 00:09:41.007

Now our minds are one, the stars we give thanks to the stars who are spread across the sky like jewelry.

00:09:41.007 –> 00:09:50.056

We see them in the night, helping the moon to light the darkness and bringing do to the gardens and growing things.

00:09:50.056 –> 00:10:11.659

When we travel at night they guide us home with our minds gathered together as one we send greetings and thanks to the stars.

00:10:11.659 –> 00:10:17.559

Now our minds are one. The enlightened team. We gather our minds to greet and thank the enlightened teachers who have come to help throughout the ages when we forget how to live in harmony they remind us of the way we were instructed to live as people with one mind we send

00:10:17.559 –> 00:10:26.406

greetings, and thanks to these carrying teachers. Now our minds are one.

00:10:26.406 –> 00:10:33.908

The Creator. Now we turn our thoughts to the Creator or Great Spirit, and send greetings and thanks for all the gifts of creation.

00:10:33.908 –> 00:10:37.805

Everything we need to live. A good life is here on this mother Earth for all the love that is still around us.

00:10:37.805 –> 00:10:47.156

We gather our minds together as one, and send our choices.

00:10:47.156 –> 00:10:59.056

Words of greetings and thanks to the Creator. Now our minds are one closing words.

00:10:59.056 –> 00:11:06.856

We have now arrived at the place where we end our words of all the things we have named, it was not our intention to leave anything out.

00:11:06.856 –> 00:11:25.508

If something was forgotten, we leave it to each individual to send such readings and thanks in their own way.

00:11:25.508 –> 00:11:51.508

Now our minds are one may this day of gratitude, of thanksgiving, a family of meals, of sharing truly be, where we can come and have our minds be of one.

00:11:51.508 –> 00:11:56.010

Looking around at what truly matters not in a superficial sense, but in a way that we can connect, create intimacy and truly show unconditional love, to those who may not even know how to show that back to us so for each of you thank you for being here have a less and safe holiday

00:11:56.010 –> 00:11:57.010

I hope it is absolutely magical.

Dark Moon- New Moon- Celestial Lunar Cycle

00:00:13.362 –> 00:00:20.711

Hello! Welcome to the new moon, the black moon, the moon, the moon!

00:00:20.711 –> 00:00:34.913

So we’re here at the new moon, and for this new moon.

00:00:34.913 –> 00:00:40.862

I I am dedicating this month. I always do a theme starting with the new moon for the celestial bodies.

00:00:40.862 –> 00:00:56.514

So if you are in a place where you can see the stars holy Moly!

00:00:56.514 –> 00:01:06.775

They are incredible right now. They are just in credible every night I have to put my chickens blanket up, and I call the cat, and it steps me out into this sea.

00:01:06.775 –> 00:01:24.620

Of celestial bodies that are just like Come, Hang out, with me and I’m like it’s 30 degrees I don’t want to but thank you for being beautiful.

00:01:24.620 –> 00:01:30.264

Good morning. Load. Nice happy new moon to you. Yeah. Okay. So as I’ve been contemplating really revamping what I’ve been putting out with the magical mothering method and with those aspects.

00:01:30.264 –> 00:01:35.763

The magical mothering method is a 13 month program that I created.

00:01:35.763 –> 00:01:45.311

While we were traveling full-time, and I used the Chakra system.

00:01:45.311 –> 00:01:54.615

That is no longer applicable. It doesn’t feel like the right words anymore.

00:01:54.615 –> 00:02:04.216

Good morning, Lisa, and so I am shifting it to correlate with the moons.

00:02:04.216 –> 00:02:10.611

So instead of a 13 Chakras system, it is a 13 moon system, and I was like Yeah, yes, this correlates.

00:02:10.611 –> 00:02:19.169

This makes sense. This is the missing piece. This is what fits.

00:02:19.169 –> 00:02:30.711

So, instead of it being this 13 Chakra system, which we are not Hindu, I am at least not Hindu.

00:02:30.711 –> 00:02:34.061

The majority of you watching are not of a Hindu religion or culture, so taking something from another culture, so that we can explain it or describe it better worked for a moment.

00:02:34.061 –> 00:02:47.268

But it doesn’t actually fit, because again, it’s not our culture.

00:02:47.268 –> 00:02:59.812

What is my culture? I’m not exactly sure but I know that I can see the moon every night, and I can call to Grandmother Moon, and there’s so silvery, miss, and I can connect with her intimately.

00:02:59.812 –> 00:03:03.962

In a way that at least is going to bring a bridge and something real and tangible, and we all know matter what our skies look like, have access to these lunar cycles.

00:03:03.962 –> 00:03:07.961

That we can go step outside, no matter what we live in the city.

00:03:07.961 –> 00:03:25.964

If we live in pollution, if we live in clear skies, it doesn’t matter.

00:03:25.964 –> 00:03:34.811

Everybody has access to the moon, and so I’m in my own understanding and my own unraveling, finding universal ways of connection, and to reconnect to ourselves our bodies.

00:03:34.811 –> 00:03:44.014

Nature, the tree people, animals, the insect world, plant medicine, herbal lore, I mean all of it.

00:03:44.014 –> 00:03:52.611

So how can we do this on a way that it feels good collectively to all of us, rather than isolating?

00:03:52.611 –> 00:03:58.563

And this is another thing I came to a big conclusion about and that is even having the word goddess culture.

00:03:58.563 –> 00:04:08.713

I realize it’s very divisive. It’s a not intentionally.

00:04:08.713 –> 00:04:25.364

I did not intentionally do this. I promise sometimes sometimes I don’t mind being divisive and pokey, but this was one of them.

00:04:25.364 –> 00:04:29.510

I didn’t actually like I was truly enthralled and excited and woken up by this realizing of the mother that I have a mother that mother Earth is not just a mother.

00:04:29.510 –> 00:04:56.711

But what if all of the cosmos was birthed as we do?

00:04:56.711 –> 00:05:05.463

And it just lit me up so incredibly. And it’s very pokey saying that to people poster, if if they do not believe the same thing, or if they have beliefs about a God that pulled us out of his brain or made us out of clay, yeah, we all know how we got so putting all

00:05:05.463 –> 00:05:07.911

Of that together, I which is why I was kind of in last month’s Facebook live.

00:05:07.911 –> 00:05:12.962

It’s a new hat. Sorry I’m a little.

00:05:12.962 –> 00:05:21.012

It’s it’s sensory. I have sensory stuff, so I’m I’m a little distracted.

00:05:21.012 –> 00:05:39.012

I love my new hat it’s a very cute new hat, but I keep itching so sorry I’m I’m getting distracted by it.

00:05:39.012 –> 00:05:51.512

So in last months Facebook live I was talking about the need for a name for the culture, and I realized that we all come from different cultural backgrounds.

00:05:51.512 –> 00:05:54.762

Some people truly have a culture. So why would I want to take that from them by saying You need a B and a life giving culture you need to eradicate the culture that you do have or you need to delete the foundation I I love throwing.

00:05:54.762 –> 00:05:58.012

The baby out with the bathwater I do it all the time.

00:05:58.012 –> 00:06:07.462

I’m like, let’s throw it all away. Start over here.

00:06:07.462 –> 00:06:16.462

Not usually the greatest way to do things because it really messes things up.

00:06:16.462 –> 00:06:22.762

So, instead of doing that which is so grateful for these rest weeks to like, give me time to pause. Just pause.

00:06:22.762 –> 00:06:28.012

Yes, because sometimes I get so excited that I just like as I do for 3 weeks straight.

00:06:28.012 –> 00:06:37.311

And then I pause. I’m like, oh, that’s how it all fits together.

00:06:37.311 –> 00:06:50.111

So what I do and what I’ve been really loving about the 3 weeks on the one week off is I blow a little up on Facebook.

00:06:50.111 –> 00:06:57.811

Live, get all of my aspects out into the air, manifest them, and then I can visually see all the dynamics that I’ve talked about on my rest. We can go.

00:06:57.811 –> 00:07:00.261

Oh, that’s how that fit together. I see that I needed to talk about that to get into that headspace.

00:07:00.261 –> 00:07:06.513

I see that I needed that in order to get to this conclusion.

00:07:06.513 –> 00:07:10.611

Okay. Okay. Okay. And then I can take them on and integrate them.

00:07:10.611 –> 00:07:32.711

During my rest week, and I can come back ready for the next new moon.

00:07:32.711 –> 00:07:41.613

Excited, recharged, recalibrated, and knowing how that theme prior, which really came about is like the overall remembering your magical self, which is probably not going to be with the name of that team is because that’s all of the themes but it was incredible to go from at the

00:07:41.613 –> 00:07:49.311

beginning of last month, lunar cycle, seeing it as like the sole Chakra that I had it at kind of it.

00:07:49.311 –> 00:07:54.663

I think it was like oh, with culture. So it was this cultural foundation lunar cycle.

00:07:54.663 –> 00:07:58.812

And then from the cultural foundation. It was really like pulling goddess culture.

00:07:58.812 –> 00:08:09.562

What is God? Is culture reading all the stuff that I’ve written about.

00:08:09.562 –> 00:08:17.564

God is culture, and how I integrated it, and what culture is, and how it is, and where it is, and all of these things to then going okay.

00:08:17.564 –> 00:08:21.112

So. Yes, we all have a foundation, and it will most likely be the foundational lunar cycle.

00:08:21.112 –> 00:08:29.862

Oh, I’m gonna write that down, otherwise I’m gonna forget.

00:08:29.862 –> 00:08:33.011

So as the foundational lunar cycle during that month, really looking at what is foundational.

00:08:33.011 –> 00:08:56.211

I had a lot of triggers go on last month.

00:08:56.211 –> 00:09:23.662

Triggers of feeling copied triggers of not feeling good enough. You know the aspects of worthiness come up, and I had a big realization about mother, and I know a lot of us have these realizations about mother. And I work very hard on. Not

00:09:23.662 –> 00:09:35.662

Taking what my mother did give me, and breaking it down into the pieces that I didn’t receive from her, because that’s not respectful of what she did give and what she did passed down to me, and yet I have a lot of stuff in my own work that I get to work on when I do

00:09:35.662 –> 00:09:42.611

Realizations about will work with my mom when I first started this work with myself 7 years ago, doing like the magical mothering room deaths and things like that.

00:09:42.611 –> 00:09:47.112

I really saw myself as the mother, and so a lot of the work that I was doing was with my dad.

00:09:47.112 –> 00:10:01.563

My dad had passed away so I couldn’t actually continue doing the work with him.

00:10:01.563 –> 00:10:14.864

There wasn’t a physical way to do that, so a lot of the work that I had to do was in my own imagination, and things like that, and discovery, and I think it was almost easier to actually be honest in the fact that my dad was not around.

00:10:14.864 –> 00:10:31.811

Physically to connect with the energy and the spirit of him, and put together all the things that I found out after he had left to have more of a relationship with him than I did when he was alive.

00:10:31.811 –> 00:10:35.011

I don’t know if that makes sense to anybody, but it was actually easier to do the healing work with my dad because he was no longer here, so thank you Loanise, and I know loan niece is has lost a Parent recently.

00:10:35.011 –> 00:10:42.962

And so for those of you who have lost a parent.

00:10:42.962 –> 00:10:46.911

I just saw another Facebook friend as I was scrolling through, who just lost her mom, and through this time of losing a parent.

00:10:46.911 –> 00:10:59.762

It’s it’s never like. You can never be prepared for it.

00:10:59.762 –> 00:11:04.663

There’s nothing that prepares you for that moment, and this brings us exactly to the sameelestial moon this month.

00:11:04.663 –> 00:11:11.161

I feel like with the Celestial Chakra.

00:11:11.161 –> 00:11:26.769

This is really this is different than the veil, and I wanna explain these differences.

00:11:26.769 –> 00:11:35.862

So with the stellar gateway. This is really connected to May and October thirty-first, so November first October, thirty-first Halloween, and then may day, so it’s may day, as well, because in the southern

00:11:35.862 –> 00:11:38.713

Hemisphere they are then having their Halloween, and so we get 2 times of year for the vet or the stellar gateway.

00:11:38.713 –> 00:11:44.910

This gateway that accesses us to the other realms.

00:11:44.910 –> 00:11:56.310

Where we can connect with those ancestors the beings on the other side of this veil is very easy.

00:11:56.310 –> 00:12:11.262

The Celestial Chakra is different. How? Because it includes not just our ancestors, but it includes the angelic beings.

00:12:11.262 –> 00:12:16.261

The light beings, our spirit guides. This includes the aspects of really seeing and being with, our team, so that can include gods and goddesses.

00:12:16.261 –> 00:12:21.662

This can include the actual celestial bodies. Pleiades.

00:12:21.662 –> 00:12:34.312

If this is where you’re home is, this can include the sun and the moon.

00:12:34.312 –> 00:12:49.863

So this is, including the celestial bodies as well as the whole, of our of our guides, all of our guides I saw this really cool thing the other day.

00:12:49.863 –> 00:13:00.463

Somebody makes them. They’re like Mandalas, and they are these beautiful representations of the 2,004 my sister’s calling me the 2,408 I believe something around.

00:13:00.463 –> 00:13:09.011

There I don’t quote me on that number but that of what we have of just grandparents back 11 generations in 10 or 11 generations.

00:13:09.011 –> 00:13:13.562

You know there’s to our 2 parents, and in their school grandparents, and then 8 grandparents, and it goes back eventually.

00:13:13.562 –> 00:13:40.664

There’s 2,000 and something total of them in just 10 generations.

00:13:40.664 –> 00:13:46.867

Think about that in and of itself, when you’re talking about a celestial support team of thousands of elders and grandparents in a while some of them are from the newer consumeristic depletion unworthiness generation that has come some of them are still connected to the culture and

00:13:46.867 –> 00:14:01.062

The nature that they had, they wouldn’t have been completely deeprogrammed.

00:14:01.062 –> 00:14:08.363

And so I want to like offer that, as just if spirit beings and angels or goddesses and gods and celestial entities and light things you’re like.

00:14:08.363 –> 00:14:15.911

I don’t know about all that. Just a little. Some of you are gonna be full on board with this, but some of you are gonna be like.

00:14:15.911 –> 00:14:34.563

I don’t know about that. Then just know that you have when the when the Bible is I mean because I was raised in the church.

00:14:34.563 –> 00:14:42.563

This is kind of where my brain goes to. But in the Bible, when it would talk about these sea of angels like when they would appear to people, they would be a celestial c of of light beings, of angels, and these angels were frightening.

00:14:42.563 –> 00:14:55.164

I mean winged balls with thousands of eyes, and angels are not human form whatsoever I mean.

00:14:55.164 –> 00:15:01.463

Angels are terrifying creatures that are described in the Bible, and so if you look at how we often depict angels, it is nothing close to how they were actually depicted.

00:15:01.463 –> 00:15:07.664

We have personified them in a way that makes them very accessible, makes them look like a strong, handsome man.

00:15:07.664 –> 00:15:33.563

That is yielding a sword. Not not the case, not the case.

00:15:33.563 –> 00:15:39.111

And so that’s off the point. But if we can focus on over 2,000 grandparents alone, grandparents, great grandparents, great great grandparents, grandparents, alone a sea of over 2,000 of them walking with us that are eagerly like she hasn’t called us in a

00:15:39.111 –> 00:15:48.617

Long time. I wonder if she knows that she could just do that.

00:15:48.617 –> 00:15:54.062

Oh! Leave her alone! You know what I mean they’re like watching our journey going, man in my 83 years.

00:15:54.062 –> 00:16:01.864

I had a lot of that. Oh, I was hoping they’d avoid it.

00:16:01.864 –> 00:16:08.062

Yes, yes, they do. They do want us to avoid. Think about how much better do you have children?

00:16:08.062 –> 00:16:23.463

How much more you want them to have, whatever you’re passionate about for me. Freedom!

00:16:23.463 –> 00:16:30.762

I want my children to be able to do whatever they want to do without the institutionalized mandates, and constructs that the world tells you that you have to go through these pathways to get there for me that is how I want my children to be raised I don’t want them to think that they have to

00:16:30.762 –> 00:16:39.211

Do anything or be anything other than their own magical selves to get through this world, and they’re gonna do it fantastically.

00:16:39.211 –> 00:16:43.911

You probably have your own things. I’ve heard of so many people that you know immigrants that come over here and they’re just like I just want more for my kids.

00:16:43.911 –> 00:17:06.168

I want them to thrive. I want them to have success, or a degree, or whatever it is.

00:17:06.168 –> 00:17:13.163

Whatever is important to them. All of these grandparents wanted better for their own children and their own children and their own children and us. And so why wouldn’t they give us tips and pointers and directions and guidance along the way if we merely asked them

00:17:13.163 –> 00:17:17.762

The the whole ask, and you shall receive.

00:17:17.762 –> 00:17:22.312

Why are we not asking for help

00:17:22.312 –> 00:17:33.563

And this is what the celestial moon really is.

00:17:33.563 –> 00:17:43.468

A lot, all about this lunar cycle is going to take us all the way right past winter solstice, and I find it so amazing.

00:17:43.468 –> 00:17:47.312

I just got goosebumps like this: E, my favorite, favorite, favorite, this is gonna be one of my favorite lunar cycles, because I love winter solstice.

00:17:47.312 –> 00:17:50.912

I love preparing for winter solstice, I don’t like Christmas.

00:17:50.912 –> 00:17:55.062

I don’t. I don’t do Christmas. I’m not big on gifts.

00:17:55.062 –> 00:17:57.563

I really suck at gift, giving, I’m like, Oh, shoot!

00:17:57.563 –> 00:18:03.462

I have to give things. I I’m not good at it.

00:18:03.462 –> 00:18:06.262

Gift giving is not my love language, gift, receiving not my lovely.

00:18:06.262 –> 00:18:10.714

I’m not great at it. It’s not something that wraps me up

00:18:10.714 –> 00:18:13.861

Then the the grandmothers are that is their love. Language.

00:18:13.861 –> 00:18:29.012

So we get lots of gifts in the mail.

00:18:29.012 –> 00:18:40.212

But winter solstice. This lights up my being, because in our yard we create a spiral, and we’ve been doing this ever since my kids were little itty bitties and I would create a spiral on the ground at a rocks.

00:18:40.212 –> 00:18:57.264

And shells and leaves, and cedar and pine, and we each traditionally it’s with the advent weeks leading up to Christmas.

00:18:57.264 –> 00:19:14.663

But we lead it up to winter solstice. The first thing that comes is the bones and the rocks, and the hard things of the earth, and then comes the animals Nope.

00:19:14.663 –> 00:19:21.762

Didn’t come. The plants, the plant teachers were here first, so the it goes in like order of evolution in a way so first there was the stones and the rocks and the hard shelled things and then the plant teachers came and so you can do it in this way too.

00:19:21.762 –> 00:19:29.162

Like the rock teachers, the earth, the mother earth, teachers and then the plant teachers came, and then the animal teachers come.

00:19:29.162 –> 00:19:41.013

The next week, and the animal teachers know far more than we do about how to live in harmony and connection with the world.

00:19:41.013 –> 00:19:45.762

And then the last week, or on winter solstice is when May comes and we get a imprint, or we get a feeling.

00:19:45.762 –> 00:20:03.863

We get an understanding that we were actually the last ones on the earth.

00:20:03.863 –> 00:20:13.963

We were the ones that were not here first. We actually have far less knowledge, then the animals, the plant teachers, and the earth, and yet we try to control and document, and then, like that’s backwards.

00:20:13.963 –> 00:20:19.462

So winter sources is a way for us to go inwards, and remember that our teachers have been here prior to us far far, prior.

00:20:19.462 –> 00:20:26.662

We are the last ones that have been on the earth. We came much later than everyone else.

00:20:26.662 –> 00:20:39.212

And how dare us think that we are here to name them and dominate and control them?

00:20:39.212 –> 00:20:43.317

In fact, we are in here to learn of their names. Remember them, create a connection with them and honor them, and say, can I use you?

00:20:43.317 –> 00:20:50.563

Can I be a part of your life? Thank you for holding this earth together?

00:20:50.563 –> 00:21:00.211

Give us oxygen, giving us food while we just take take take and winter sources as well.

00:21:00.211 –> 00:21:09.012

An incredible time that we get to remember. We go back through the spiral as we walk through the spiral with our lit candle.

00:21:09.012 –> 00:21:18.967

We walk through the spiral thinking and contemplating about the past year, really like dredging up some stuff of like.

00:21:18.967 –> 00:21:27.112

Oh, that was a bad idea. Maybe I didn’t do something really allowing for yourself to dredge up the past year.

00:21:27.112 –> 00:21:36.911

Good, bad, ugly grief, all of it. Then you get to the center and you release it.

00:21:36.911 –> 00:21:41.713

You release all of it, and when you walk back out the spiral you’re literally gathering up what it is that you want to pick up.

00:21:41.713 –> 00:21:48.763

What it is that you want to continue in what you you know.

00:21:48.763 –> 00:22:03.611

So this would be a great time to ask for guidance this is a great time to say, Okay, and my way out.

00:22:03.611 –> 00:22:07.112

I’m gathering up all of my guides, my ancestors, the goddesses that I work with all of these beings I’m going to take them into the New Year, and then also bringing up the word of the year, can be found within the winter spiral as well so I wasn’t

00:22:07.112 –> 00:22:11.762

quite gonna go into all of that. It just seemed to really, flow.

00:22:11.762 –> 00:22:20.211

But that is when you think of celestial beings.

00:22:20.211 –> 00:22:25.162

It is the spirals, it is the Milky Way. It is the vastness that we can’t even begin to fathom.

00:22:25.162 –> 00:22:44.811

I was watching this documentary the other night well, Travis was watching it.

00:22:44.811 –> 00:22:56.062

I was just sitting there sometimes I’m doing other things, but I pick up on things, and it was about the solar system and about how the solar system keeps expanding further and further away from each other, until eventually it’ll be so expanded there’ll be nothing in the sky I mean this is millions

00:22:56.062 –> 00:22:58.614

Of years, right, but so all the celestial bodies that we have in our sky right now the the the space is expanding it’s such an accelerating rate.

00:22:58.614 –> 00:23:02.962

There will be a time that you’ll look out and will be nothing.

00:23:02.962 –> 00:23:08.062

We won’t. We won’t be around anymore. But it’s a it’s an incredible thing to think about that.

00:23:08.062 –> 00:23:12.512

It’s like the things are so expansive. And this is what we do constantly.

00:23:12.512 –> 00:23:18.662

We take them all for granted. Like, oh, the stars are always gonna be there.

00:23:18.662 –> 00:23:26.111

My family is always gonna be there. This is always gonna be there not this year this year.

00:23:26.111 –> 00:23:33.912

We’re going to actually be in complete gratitude for the celestial beings and the celestial bodies.

00:23:33.912 –> 00:23:39.212

That surround us, that give us this. They’re just like we have these gifts for you.

00:23:39.212 –> 00:23:42.813

Would you like them. And we’re just saying No, no, I’m good I’ll do this on my own, and they’re like no, really.

00:23:42.813 –> 00:23:44.211

We have these amazing gifts? They’re they’re just gonna help you.

00:23:44.211 –> 00:23:48.463

They’re gonna nourish you. They’re gonna feed you.

00:23:48.463 –> 00:23:51.562

They’re gonna make you feel amazing. And we’re like no, no, I’m good thanks so much.

00:23:51.562 –> 00:24:00.663

But I I don’t take gifts very well.

00:24:00.663 –> 00:24:05.764

This celestial moon cycle we are going to receive the gifts of our ancestors.

00:24:05.764 –> 00:24:11.662

We’re going to receive the gifts of our so celestial beings.

00:24:11.662 –> 00:24:42.364

The light beings are what my friend Christa calls our spirit team.

00:24:42.364 –> 00:25:06.763

Good morning, destiny. And so through this through this access and through this portal we are going to create space for really being in connection with the celestial aspects, and if you get an opportunity to go outside and look at the stars my goddess they are just abundant and amazing and so

00:25:06.763 –> 00:25:19.869

prolific, the cold just makes them shine. You can see the colors that are coming in, and with this dark moon right now to step out tonight and just honor that as many stars as there are in the sky is how many ancestors you have waiting to give you guidance to your question that is keeping

00:25:19.869 –> 00:25:29.262

you stuck. And so throughout this month we’re going to connect with different entities and different spirit beings and doing different things. So I definitely.

00:25:29.262 –> 00:25:33.512

Want to have some patrion-only Facebook lives or we can really dive in, and I want to do some like spirit work.

00:25:33.512 –> 00:25:37.763

Where we can access different things. So go into the discord channel.

00:25:37.763 –> 00:25:48.112

If you’re a patron, go into the Discord Channel, let me know what days work for you.

00:25:48.112 –> 00:25:53.964

I want to dive into this, and I want to do some shamanic journeying and do some fun things like that, so don’t let me off the hook now that I’ve said that go into the discord let me know what days work.

00:25:53.964 –> 00:26:00.711

For you around the holidays, or whatever. And let’s schedule those because I’m really looking forward to that.

00:26:00.711 –> 00:26:06.763

And this is why I love doing this work. So let’s actually implement this loanese.

00:26:06.763 –> 00:26:09.664

You are officially going to hold me accountable to having these at least 2. Let’s do 2 this month, Patreon.

00:26:09.664 –> 00:26:13.066

Only sessions. So please please, please keep me accountable.

00:26:13.066 –> 00:26:21.468

Going. The discord remind me. Setup dates for me.

00:26:21.468 –> 00:26:28.663

Let me know what works. Okay. Thank you. So we are here.

00:26:28.663 –> 00:26:31.363

New moon is here fresh start is here, my I my rest week.

00:26:31.363 –> 00:26:40.764

I don’t know if your rest week was very restful.

00:26:40.764 –> 00:26:50.066

My kids, were both sick. We’ve been the kids we’ve had this squash rock wash squash, rash since the first of November.

00:26:50.066 –> 00:26:55.012

They’ve had ear infections and tummy aches and vomiting and runny noses and coughing, and oh, my gosh!

00:26:55.012 –> 00:27:01.313

I’m like: okay. Thank you. Universe, for letting me know how good I had. It.

00:27:01.313 –> 00:27:04.013

Thank you for for letting me know how easy and efforts my life has been going.

00:27:04.013 –> 00:27:19.362

I’ve been taking all of my time for granted.

00:27:19.362 –> 00:27:32.311

I hear you I’m ready for the new moon to eradicate all of this, and for this to be done in that old moon cycle, and we woke up, and I just feel the shift and it.

00:27:32.311 –> 00:27:55.364

Could very much be just my imagination, but I’m hoping you feel it as well that there is this aspect there’s a gift in the lunar cycles that we get this opportunity.

00:27:55.364 –> 00:28:05.663

To say goodbye. Then we get to release those lessons, that aspect, and I’m doing a lot of it’s been interesting doing research on the aspects that these cultures did not see the year the turtle came to the indigenous people and really gave them the calendar and it

00:28:05.663 –> 00:28:28.163

Has 13 squares on its back, and then 28 days in the little ones I have my turtle, shells, not in here.

00:28:28.163 –> 00:28:34.111

I think I actually have. So I have this turtle show, and you can see it so here there’s 28 of these, and then there’s 13 of these and these are like the squares on the turtles back and so this was their calendar because in north America

00:28:34.111 –> 00:28:41.762

It’s called Turtle Island, and so all the turtles have this calendar on them.

00:28:41.762 –> 00:29:05.211

And so when we look at that. This is how they actually got their original 13 lunar cycles make a year.

00:29:05.211 –> 00:29:10.113

But when we look at some Sumatrin or Babylonian, or even the early judicial cultures, their lunar cycles, one lunar cycle was equivalent to one year, and So that creates a huge shift the indigenous people looked to nature to give them

00:29:10.113 –> 00:29:15.914

Their solid knowings about them, and the turtle had been around.

00:29:15.914 –> 00:29:26.114

They knew that the turtle was much older and wiser than them, because they had just landed on this earth.

00:29:26.114 –> 00:29:30.612

So they utilized the knowledge of the animals, and even more old than the animals were the plants, and older than that was mother Earth herself.

00:29:30.612 –> 00:29:50.064

And so there is this just like the spiral shows us.

00:29:50.064 –> 00:29:53.813

There’s this knowing in these longings of wanting to connect, and when we have these 13 lunar cycles, and I am not going to take from what the indigenous people did by naming the moons what they did because I don’t have a hunger moon anymore.

00:29:53.813 –> 00:30:01.562

The coming moon of February or January would be a hunger moon with.

00:30:01.562 –> 00:30:12.463

There was very little food, very little animals. They were all deep in sleep that doesn’t make sense to us in our culture.

00:30:12.463 –> 00:30:29.713

We are a very abundant culture, good or bad it’s at the devastation of many resources, but we don’t go hungry.

00:30:29.713 –> 00:30:39.564

Anymore there’s food banks on every corner. There’s so much abundance, and whether it’s nutritious or just needs us feeling more that we need more either one can be said but there is truth in these cultures.

00:30:39.564 –> 00:30:59.514

That looked to nature for their resources versus just having to rely on an outside source that could be vengeful or wrathful.

00:30:59.514 –> 00:31:07.163

Like the warrior god of so many cultures. So I, for me I’m looking at more nature-based cultures that honor the wisdom of the animals and the plants, and the earth to find my own foothold in this world versus looking to an outside source saying come rescue me because

00:31:07.163 –> 00:31:25.311

It’s not going to be there. Our ancestors are even going to say start growing food start being sustainable.

00:31:25.311 –> 00:31:41.912

They know they know how important they’ve seen the time so much that if you rely on outside influences or outlines outside sources for your sustainability, at any moment, they can be taken away and this is with all cultures not just indigenous of North America, but look at the

00:31:41.912 –> 00:31:51.612

Celtic cultures in the all of the European cultures that got wiped out by the Catholic Church, and there’s so many indigenous and aboriginal cultures that are no longer existed there’s not even a trace of them, because that they were sustainable

00:31:51.612 –> 00:32:10.916

and you cannot control sustainable people, so not that this is some propaganda of my own to promote sustainability, even though that is what I’m passionate about.

00:32:10.916 –> 00:32:13.963

It always comes through in some way or another, just because I can’t simply speak of that which I don’t know for me sustainability and freedom is of utmost importance to my being, and that’s how I feel the most magical, and connected so it automatically comes through in what I do and teach and it’s again, not

00:32:13.963 –> 00:32:26.212

A judgment for anybody else in the way that they’re living.

00:32:26.212 –> 00:32:31.163

But I can’t teach anything other than what I’m doing and what I know, and I can’t reframe my brain and my energy to match other people’s to connect on a level that they’re doing and living because it doesn’t work that’s not how that’s not what

00:32:31.163 –> 00:32:37.064

We’re meant to do. We’re meant to stay in our energetic vibration and then create intimacy from there.

00:32:37.064 –> 00:32:46.313

Not lowering or raising ourselves, but being in a in a way that we can connect, intimately.

00:32:46.313 –> 00:33:06.811

I hope that makes sense so, anyway.

00:33:06.811 –> 00:33:28.063

And what an incredible way to come to an end of the year with this last lunar cycle of 22, and to come to a realization that each new moon we have an opportunity to create our own new moon resolutions I love it.

00:33:28.063 –> 00:33:45.711

Okay, I’m writing that one down, too, because if we only save them for the New Year, we don’t do them, because who really wants to start something new when it’s 20 degrees outside in January, not me Hi We’d like to start a resolution of sitting by the fire for the month

00:33:45.711 –> 00:33:53.113

Like like writing all month. But that’s not something that is sustainable in the hot humidity of the summer, when at the very crack of sunshine I went to get up and go sit in the river all day I guess there’s a theme I just wanna sit around all day.

00:33:53.113 –> 00:33:54.464

There it is! Those are my new years. I would like to sit around writing, sit around in a river that is my life.

00:33:54.464 –> 00:34:00.463

There we go, and then I frolic and pick plants.

00:34:00.463 –> 00:34:12.514

Here. I guess I can make my New Year’s resolutions in January, but you get what I’m saying.

00:34:12.514 –> 00:34:17.711

We have the opportunity every month to create space, to really create our reality, and it it gives us an opportunity that I think so many of us feel stuck like.

00:34:17.711 –> 00:34:22.612

Oh, I’ve got to wait for the New Year to really start fresh and with the lunar cycles.

00:34:22.612 –> 00:34:24.463

It really gives us this gift every month to say. You know what that’s not working.

00:34:24.463 –> 00:34:30.113

Let’s just bury that let’s let that go.

00:34:30.113 –> 00:34:48.212

Let’s release that and let’s start fresh next month or next lunar cycle.

00:34:48.212 –> 00:35:03.213

And this gives us this open, and then this way to constrict and feel what we’ve just led led in, and if we don’t like the way that, it feels what we just left in we can open it back up and let it go and let me something new in try that on integrate it not quite

00:35:03.213 –> 00:35:32.163

Right I’m gonna open that up. Get more insight and then through this whole selection aspect we can really connect to our ancestors, our guides, the angels, the gods, are goddesses if you so go in that direction.

00:35:32.163 –> 00:35:35.463

But really creating a full spectrum of aspects that we can connect with in a way that leaves us not hungry for more meeting more outside of us, but looking within, and connecting with all the solutions bodies that are truly just sitting on the edge of their seats waiting for us to ask for their

00:35:35.463 –> 00:35:42.662

Guidance and I’m gonna end with what?

00:35:42.662 –> 00:35:59.313

How that kind of came to me. So, my son, he had an an ear infection.

00:35:59.313 –> 00:36:13.520

This past week, you know, blowing nose. We’ve I’ve been doing allergy, and Sinus with him, and respiratory and onion slices on the ear, and the whole the whole thing and the week prior to that he had been fevering, I mean I just I know his

00:36:13.520 –> 00:36:22.262

Kidneys. He has some kidney stuff going on, so I know his kidneys have an unundated with a lot of stuff, and us eating Halloween candy for 2 weeks after in Halloween did not help that which We’ve never done we always the switch which takes it and takes it out

00:36:22.262 –> 00:36:33.713

of the house, so that we don’t sit there consuming sugar for weeks and weeks, and we did that this year, which is why we are not feeling great.

00:36:33.713 –> 00:36:47.015

So there’s always a a reason. But through all of this he was sitting there, and he was just in agony, tears running down his face because of his ear infections.

00:36:47.015 –> 00:36:51.612

And I just I finally got like a tap on my shoulder like, Why don’t you call in his angel and my son and I both know the names of our angels, which is if this is something that you would like to do you’d like to learn the name of your angel we can have

00:36:51.612 –> 00:37:04.665

Maybe a patriot, only session about that or any other of your guides.

00:37:04.665 –> 00:37:07.014

I love doing things like that. So I called in his angel, and I told Zion that I was calling in his angel, and he’s like yes, yes, yes, of course so I have his angel to crawl into his ears and pull out the infection.

00:37:07.014 –> 00:37:10.362

And then I was like you know. Why would I just leave it to his angel?

00:37:10.362 –> 00:37:33.462

So I called in my angel. I called in my guides.

00:37:33.462 –> 00:37:37.264

I called in my ancestors. I have these 2 beautiful, very ancient, from one of the root families that were first on the the earth, and they came and I could just see him surrounded and with seconds I mean I’m calling all of these in and he in science like oh, I just moved my jaw and I

00:37:37.264 –> 00:37:47.511

Popped, and all the pain went away, and I just went

00:37:47.511 –> 00:37:52.165

It it. It’s making me emotional right at this moment, because you were just waiting like you don’t have to do this on your own.

00:37:52.165 –> 00:37:56.064

You don’t have to struggle you. You can be sustainable.

00:37:56.064 –> 00:37:59.312

Get them, be in freedom, but you don’t have to struggle anymore.

00:37:59.312 –> 00:38:17.411

You don’t have to like cruel through the muck.

00:38:17.411 –> 00:38:24.865

We can literally lift you up over all of this stuff. We’re just waiting, and so that’s why it’s so important to have this celestial lunar cycle so that we can truly remember that as we go into the darkness of the darkest months ahead of us the that

00:38:24.865 –> 00:38:35.562

We’re not doing so alone. We’re not here that they, if we don’t feel like we can keep our lights going on our own.

00:38:35.562 –> 00:38:42.763

They can at least sit there and bring in tender, and bring in warmth, and keep our lights going with us, rather than as constantly struggling in this process.

00:38:42.763 –> 00:39:05.113

In this journey that can be very lonely, that it doesn’t need to be that way anymore.

00:39:05.113 –> 00:39:29.613

So. Thank you for joining me. I’m very excited about this next lunar cycle, and I’m like first thing with the aspects of really allowing and receiving and being in a space of what gifts can we give to our ancestors, and I think the greatest gift is

00:39:29.613 –> 00:39:33.663

Receiving their guidance is not being so stubborn to outside help, but to really allow for this lunar cycle to open up our willingness to receive, and not just commercially or consumeristically material things but really opening us up to receive what is waiting for us in this vast realm of

00:39:33.663 –> 00:39:46.614

Dimensional living that we can’t even begin to fathom.

00:39:46.614 –> 00:39:56.812

So have a beautiful magical day. Tomorrow’s Thanksgiving, so I will go live tomorrow, and we will do a Thanksgiving address.

00:39:56.812 –> 00:40:07.865

I’m really braiding Sweetgrass, and I will just be on here reading the Thanksgiving address that she presents.

00:40:07.865 –> 00:40:22.963

It’s from an indigenous it’s from the indigenous cultures that they started each of the day with things giving, or whenever they gathered, and that will be tomorrow’s session.

00:40:22.963 –> 00:40:27.062

So I hope you have an absolute magical day, and remember, if you’re getting stressed out about what all the things that you need to do ask your your team to come in your guides to come in your ancestors to come in and allow for you to remember recipes or to be in

00:40:27.062 –> 00:40:28.062

Just sweet love and support blessings.
