Notes from my Grand Cross Meditation Experience

These are the notes I put together following my teleconferenced session with Katherine Wright Desai and her Grand Cross Meditation;

Excellent sensations. Katherine brought in an energy level that was well beyond our realms. Beyond Ascended Masters. A galactic energy that is embedded in the very fabric of our universe. Katherine described it as being part of the dark matter of space, the space between planets, stars and moons that holds it all together. The energy was very calm, peaceful, loving and all enveloping. In an attempt to give it a name Katherine chose; grandmother / grandfather energy to name it and I think it fits beautifully. Being a grandmother myself I felt a strong identification with it. Feel imbued with a sense of peace and contentment while still fully understanding the work yet to be done. Feel ready, fully engaged and capable.

That's what i was looking for I think! Engaged and capable to move forward. To continue to trust my inner guidance - wait - to trust it even more now as it's that much more aligned to where spirit is leading me! Oh JOY!
When we talked briefly after the session I told Katherine about my sensations. She felt that this energy is indeed stable in comparison to the earth's current energy level. Not that the earth is unstable but that grounding to her isn't as smooth as it has been in the past. Earth is experiencing the same changes and adjustments we are all going through and so it can be more difficult to get a calm sense of energy when grounding with her. This galactic energy seems to smooth out some of those jitters and feels helpful, likely for the earth as well!
With the summits, G8/G-20, happening in the neighboring city of Toronto, my heart energy is focusing on these leaders and their agendas, also on the protesters and on lookers, that they all may sense this peace and use it as their rudder while negotiating and communicating with each other.
Grand Expectations are my effects from this Grand Cross experience, and I lovingly send that energy, that message, to the ethers!
Grand Expectations indeed - for our world - for humanity - for life as we know it! Hoping you will enjoy the ride!

***Special thanks to Katherine for her dedication to assisting us all in these times!****

With love,

Lightworkers! Are you Attuned and Ready to Shine in these times?


The link on the title above will take you to Katherine Wright Desai's website; Vitability.com where you can explore additional information, audio files and text to support you in your work.

The link below is to a specific meditation which is very timely and can assist anyone in finding a good sense of center, peace or grounding, with much support from outer realms. This session allows a strengthening of your own inner sense of sanctuary. From that position you are better equipped to maintain your own steadiness while being in service to others. This is an excellent preparatory for attuning your energies prior to the upcoming lunar eclipse, this Saturday the 26th. 



It's rare that I will send out a blog specifically to lightworkers. It seems however a very good time to share this information. I have experienced this attunement and can speak of it's effects as positive and centering.  If you have been feeling the pressures of late, no matter how the tensions may be showing in your life, it may be a good time to re-charge and reclaim your own sacred soul sanctuary.  This may help you in that regard.

Katherine has arranged a gathering by teleconference to work with the eclipse energy on Saturday morning,

And If you can't come, have your own gathering of like minded folks to connect & celebrate in Light in your own way. 


If my corner of the world is any indication I can say there are some very strong energies peaking and dancing through the cosmos and the earth. Here in Guelph, Canada, just 100 km west of Toronto, the energies of the gatherings of G20 and G8 world leaders are stirring things up not just in peoples' hearts and minds. Ottawa, our nation's capital, demonstrated the tensions deep within our earth by releasing a magnitude 5 earthquake just yesterday! I am amazed and grateful at our earth mother's calm action believing she has helped pave the way for less tension and more connection as these leaders pursue their agendas.
Did you feel the quake? I know many did - what an experience! What did you think?

Gone To Seed - an unusual arrangement

By a stroke of luck my camera works - a game that we are playing - one or two photos at a time.
Because I've often felt my most successful photographs are channeled more than created, this little game the camera and I are playing has some surprising and fun aspects. I am enjoying it and willing to keep playing while working on manifesting my next new tool!
such cute little flowers with seed pods too!



A different sort of planter arrangement!

I was thrilled to capture these shots! The mesclun lettuces mix and the spinach I'd planted early in spring had gotten very confused by the strange weather we had in May, rather than supply us with a nice early batch of fresh salad greens we received what appears to be an interesting arrangement of wildflowers!

I find them quite pretty and hoped I could snap a quick shot of them when I grabbed the camera thinking, what the heck it might decide to work today. A couple quick snaps later the camera stopped working again!
Whew, I thought - that was lucky.  Or is it, because it was just what was needed for the latest blog entry?

I have been so anxious over my computer and camera troubles of late I seemed to forget I can simply write...but a picture always adds so much more dimension to a story.

We have strawberries, this year we're growing them in hanging baskets and we're picking a half dozen berries a day - a great snack while out picking weeds or playing with the dogs. They're an odd hybrid that will bloom & produce fruit all summer and the blooms are pink or the more traditional white. I love the pink ones, cuties!

The cherries! Oh My! They are almost ready to pick and this year we got the netting up well before the little green balls starting hinting at some color. That means the birds might get the odd piece of fruit but they won't be stripping the tree clean before we've had a chance to see the cherries ripen to perfection! Yum! The robins and cardinals who live nearby have helped themselves to a few. The grackles and starlings who've gravitated to the big trees nearby knowing the cherries are there aren't so inclined to venture closer with the net in the way. This is our third year with the trees and it looks like it will be the first year we'll get to eat more than the odd sample.

Our grapes have just bloomed - the weird outer-space looking little flowers are transforming into groups of tiny green balls and we'll enjoy watching them ripen through summer and into September when their purple goodness will be savored in jam. If it's an abundant harvest I might try making some grape catsup (ketchup) it's something I always wanted to try!

We have a lawn again - only the odd patch of stubborn ground that's yet to allow the little green sprouts to break through it's tough skin! It's green and pretty and nice to walk on with bare feet. So much better than the mud pit we had in April! The dogs are allowed to romp on it again too - and they are as happy as we are about it! Though we still use the kennel area - it works so well and keeps the Jacks calmer when neighborhood kids are making noise in the school playground next door. It's also the easiest way to keep their potty "business" under control without having to hunt out the poop land-mines on the lawn! I just let them out of the kennel after they've finished what they need to do, they're usually calmer then too! I can imagine, as I'm rarely calm when I really need to go too!
.
Next job is replanting our front meadow! It became overgrown with unwanted plants that have choked out my prize sub-alpines. We're still sourcing out some perennials so haven't finalized our plans yet. If we don't finish it in early July we'll likely wait till late September and get it in place so it's ready for next spring.

And if you were wondering about the video experiments I'd alluded to in an earlier post; well gee id YouTube doesn't support easy uploading of those types of recordings! The nerve - I had a few trys at it and each recording got truncated, making it useless as a tool. Since then I've acquired another video editing tool that might help me. I'll be experimenting with it and if successful the results will show up here!

Our garden is our little haven in this wild and crazy world. A place to relax and re-charge. What's yours?

With love,

Walk in the garden.blogspot.com; a photo blog

It's our belief the Earth on which we live is truly an Enchanted Garden. Nature has a magical way of creating and sustaining itself, usually with an incredible abundance and variety of expression. This is actually the natural way of the world we live in, despite human attempts to rally against or fight or ignore nature.

A Photo-Blog with a fun and quirky flavor, including some digital artwork, inspirations, experiments and the stories behind them giving some insight into how a couple of happy gardeners view our backyard and our world!
Visiting is just like taking a Walk In The Garden

We planned our landscaping to reflect our appreciation for the natural world and the desire to observe nature up close by making use of native plant varieties, allowing seed bearing plants to stand as feed for wildlife and creating a healthy micro-environment for them. Sometimes even the garden visitors: mainly birds and squirrels leave seeds and bulbs that surprise us later on!

I enjoy sharing some of the magical photographs and images I'm grateful to be able to capture and create. Other fun photos and stories highlighting the rest of our life in the garden will inevitably show up here too. Road trips, camping, fishing, biking, our dogs and our rescue foster pups and their antics, are the likely topics!

My photo
Guelph, ON, Canada
I celebrate nature, the natural world and the human spirit immersed within it. My passion is in sharing the simple reminders the garden and nature share with me. Through my photographic adventures I've learned something we humans often overlook; We are a part of Nature, not apart from it! That we are human spirits immersed within this magical, miraculous and beautiful world. Understanding this fundamental truth has been changing my life in lovely ways. I look forward to and welcome further developments this focus provides and hope you might be inspired to reconnect with the natural world around you!
