The Gaia Minute Call - Week 7

Siona said Nov 2, 8:46 AM:

 

Beautiful Gaia, and beautiful Gaians…

Thank you each, so much, for your time and attention and love this morning; I feel always so very connected to each of you, and so grateful for what arises through our container, our circle. How blessed we are!

As before, the link to the meditation is below.

Anna… it was such a joy to hear your voice, and Gien's perfect question. Thank you so much for persevering, and holding such beautiful space on the other side of this beautiful globe.

RevMomma: Wasn't is glorious? I was out walking yesterday afternoon, and the moon was this tremendous pale bubble in a softly clouded sky. It was so wonderfully full, and, I thought, such an auspicious beginning to what promises to be a wonderfully full month.

I agree, the month does appear to be starting in a sacred space.  Once again this morning I was greeted by the reflecting light of the moon.  How wonderful that just as the moon - we are all reflections of light.  Peace, Rosanne.

I enjoyed this morning's weekly Gaia Minute call with my 5 yr old, one of our cats, some birds and even an orange butterfly, who came along during.  There was a gentle breath of breeze from our Mother herself, blue sky and warm sunshine, sitting in the rocker, out on the back porch.

I found that I could be fully in the meditation and aware of you all; and yet, connecting with my young son peacefully - throwing a baseball back & forth.  Not bothered by the distraction; but feeling calm harmony and folding whatever was, at that NOW moment, into the words I was listening to.

Once he wanted me to get up and do something that would have distracted me, I simply said, “I'm still on my phone call, when it is finished”.  Mostly, he just played happily nearby.  I usually get off by myself for privacy but my husband is away this morning and so, I had to remain available for the children.

My morning, though hectic, is unfolding quite comfortably.  This group meditation really sets a tone to (at least) my Monday.  I can't really tell if it “lasts” for me more than a few hours but I'll take however much of the beautiful energy's effect that can come through for me.

I thought this Rumi in the Living Metaphysics daily guides fitting -

I Have Such a Teacher

Last night my teacher taught me the lesson of poverty,
having nothing and wanting nothing.

I am a naked man standing inside a mine of rubies,
clothed in red silk.

I absorb the shining and now I see the ocean,
billions of simultaneous motions moving in me.

A circle of lovely, quiet people
becomes the ring on my finger.

Then wind, and the thunder of rain on the way.
I have such a teacher.

                              ~ translation by Coleman Barks in A Year With Rumi
                                            (note - emphasis on “verse” my own)

Oh yeah, last night I stood out under the full moon and connected to the peaceful beauty at my in-laws cabin, remembering their love of that place and always I have noticed the peacefulness there.  Almost 2 yrs ago, to the day, my FIL made his transition (Nov 4th) from Earthly life, in that place.

Peace & Blessings -
Deb

Deb: I so cherish your presence and voice on the calls–I love how immediate you feel, with your gentle descriptions of that which surrounds you–and these following musings; I look forward, always, to reading each. Thank you for so beautifully balancing motherhood and Motherhood. It's an inspiration.

Thank you so much for facilitating this meditation, Siona. Thank you all whom I heard at the beginning, even though the sound was such –or it may be my aging ears– that I did not catch everyone's name!

I know Laurie was there, and Deb with your son [how very precious], and Kathy, Anna though I didn't get it [oof!], Gien, OM, Helen, Ladybear,  Nicole, and…who else? Did I hear Alluvja?

Nicole, Gien asked Siona what if there are 1000 people online - wondering how we'd all say Hi, I guess!

Oh, Anna… I'm so sorry! I didn't capture it this time. This coming week I'll turn on the recording as soon as the call begins. Thank you for the reminder, and again, I'm sorry.

Lucienne / Alluvja wrote on my grapevine this -

Hi Deb, No I wasn't there and I was sorry about that. I was late calling in, but just in time but then I didn't get through. So I got irritated and decided that was no good energy to enter anyway. So I went to the kitchen to let off some steam but I really missed you all. So I just tried to meditate and connect with all of you anyway by meditating by myself.

Meenakshi said Nov 3, 7:33 AM:

 

Ah yes, I heard Gien's question; and I'll tell Alluvja her vibrant presence was with us! The heart can carry it on when the phone calls don't work! I keep feeling that this is the central message of the connections and meditation …for us all to know the energy signatures of each other, so that we can always connect . We always have been, but now we'll be more aware of that.
In other groups where we've meditated together, we've sensed that. We become a family that depended first on meeting in physical space; but then, as some of us had to move from the city, we were still able to connect. The same with groups I've only met in cyberspace….

I see us all as a circle holding hands, all in light, floating in cyberspace, but deeply connected to Mother Earth as Gaia.
