BACK TO HOPE

DECEMBER 2023 

We take the opportunity to reassure our friends in incarnation that everything in the firmament has changed.  Everything has changed, and a new note sounds in the firmament.

Smile. Smile because it is true, and know that this will increase your feeling of wellbeing in the next weeks and months.  Be assured that you will notice changes around you: in your own environment, but also in the troubled world outside.

Yes, the troubled world outside. The result , almost, of a ‘clash of the Titans’, which has been going on for, perhaps, the past twelve years. A clash between the old order of supremacy – dominance and servility; of black and white; left and right – and the incoming light of change. 

In this clash, the autocrat, the dictator and the greedy entrepreneur have all surfaced, in order to be knocked down, to be diminished in some way.  And, as this divisive culture is called to account, so there will be a change of direction, to a more equitable and harmonious way of living on planet earth.

And because of this, the trees are happier than they have been for eons. Because the trees are the record keepers, the monitors of how the world turns.   For a tree is never just a tree. A tree is a friend, a neighbour, a record keeper; a way of holding on to hope – now that the world is turning.  Trees can offer the experience that the world can began to trust again, and to take a journey back to hope.

The trees around you will become clearer in their communication, which may sound strange. But we ask you now to feel into a tree, or a wood, or a forest, which for many is already a habit.  Forest Bathing has become a serious enterprise over the last while, but it is now possible to widen that experience for many more people. 

It is a time to feel into the world around you, rather think about the world around you.  Because in this experience you can find peace. The kind of peace that everyone yearns for, and yet so few people have been able to find at this time.

Make friends with a tree. Sense how your own experience of the natural world is now enhanced by this communion.  Feel how nature itself is relieved that the world has turned, and that humanity can journey back to hope.

Now sit quietly and listen to Annie’s latest audio meditation:
