It has become very evident, that we, in today's world have lost touch with nature, a phenomenon that is occurring both on the inside and outside of our beings. As within, so without - as above, so below.... So why this cosmic upset? What is actually happening?
We are in a stage of our human evolutionary process, where we have become unbalanced as a species, leaning too much into the unbalanced masculine energy of patriarchy. The negative side of unbalanced masculine leadership, is that it is rooted in fear and ego instead of in love. And so we see, around the world, the dominance of dominance, the increasing control and limitation of humans in every area of life, which is all rooted in fear.
Because humans now live in fear of loss, in fear of insecurity, in fear of inadequacy, in fear of the potency of our natural nature, we try to control nature. And you cannot control nature, as soon as you try - you suppress her. We are not meant to control nature, control the feminine, control our wildness - we are meant to surrender to the magnificence of it. A wild woman in her pure and natural form is the strongest and most beautiful and connected thing we can lay our eyes upon - and this dualistic energy, this dance of constant balance between the masculine and feminine, exists INTERNALLY before it does externally.
So it is not some threatening and external government force, some horrific law or military thing that we ought to fear, but our own submission to control. That is the patriarch that lives within each of us, the being who says that we shouldn't be what we are, but try to control and change our natural nature to look more like something external - fit into something external. Obey external rules and paths.
And so more and more - we end up running away from OURSELVES, from our true nature - as within so without.... and so we start to construct this controlled and externally focused environment - mega-cities with no green, nature and animals. No freedom of movement and thought, just a number of people running away from their own nature and natural nature together, to create a hub of human movement based in control and fear of loss of external 'power'. The focus shifts from being and flowing with life, to fighting against the very nature of life! Which is change! Change, through creation, operation and destruction - is the natural law of the universe. Flow.
We have become so afraid, that we resist change, resist our nature and the nature of the universe - at all costs. And we go on hanging to false identities, useless and showy material possessions that serve nature and life no true valuble purpose, buying products and supporting the systems that add to this destruction of nature through her control and exploitation - and our poor women are a reflection of that in society - and our men!
We exploit one another happily and defensively, - never truelly nurturing one another to simply be who they truelly are. We cannot give what we don't have inside - and so everyone goes on critiquing each other and not accepting each other - because this is how they treat themselves internally, and so what they attract themselves to externally.
So how do we resolve this? It starts with self-love, self-acceptance. Who am I in material flesh - what are my karmic lessons in this physical body in terms of gender, race, class, age, etc. Then all the practices of forgiveness, love and acceptance come after seeing our own truth. Then, we start to develop our spiritual awareness - who am I, as a spiritual being - what is my truth and service to healing humanity beyond this physical body - but still in full awareness and harmony with it? It
It is during this process, that we begin to shed all the acting, conditioning, limiting, control and false structuring around our being, and peeling open - through the layers of pain and joy, the true brilliance of our being! Which is our natural nature... We understand how to live within our feminine, our self-care, nurturing and love through facing our darkness, learning to live in wild and harmonious loving freedom with our shadow, and support this with our inner masculine, support our inner freedom and natural wild being. We need to constantly be in nature - reconnected to our roots and the magnificent natural energy from which our beings have arisen.
Our return to nature - will only begin to dawn on our individual consciousness once we are the ones making the effort to nurture, allow change and flow, and awaken to our own inner truth. We needn't fight and battle to discover our true being - expel massive amounts of energy...
But rather relax into it. Just relax, be with your breath. Simplify and let go. Allow things to come and go. Everything around you will always change - and so will you. Just focus on your breath, be with your breath in loving peace, and relax into your true nature. Then the real magic begins!
