Enchanted Beings



Beating a drum to the lit bottoms of glow worms had the children captivated in delight last night. 

Ferns, lichen and moss hid the nocturnal earthlings from view and magnified the buried creeks gurglings. The rising full moon sauntered through the protective arms of our trees, winking shadows of delight, the children whimsically dancing, playing and creating shadow theatre on the freshly cut lawn. 
Parallel worlds sitting closer. 
Enchanted beings on either side of the fence.

Gifting ourselves with melodies of higher vibration, taking time to honour our friends with their outstretched lungs, our food providers and forest dwellers, the harmony between the children of earth and their long standing tree family was celebrated in earnest. 


Old Man Walnut's face came to view, his thick coat of striated bark rougher to touch, fluid in the silver light of the night. The ancient ratas knarled fingers clawing at the light of the moon. Willow quenching her never ending thirst, standing strong with the quiet pungas and tree ferns. The pohutukawa proudly dominating her presence over the orchard of adolescent apples.

Last month grandmama moon had us setting intentions. It was my intention to get myself set straight! 
With time whizzing past and flurries of days tornading vortexes up and around me, yesterday I found myself celebrating another full moon, barely seeing where the days had flown too. 
Thank the grandmother in that case for this month we will be revitalised. 
Grabbing the energy and gobbling it up will set our intentions into action.

Sharing a feast of succulent, live plant foods with celebrated friends last night with a common thread of seeing, being, growing and creating, we blessed the waters of our land, the trees that drink the nectar of life from her, our children and ourselves. A connection with our natural lives, a reminder to keep close to the natural world, especially in times of giddiness and flitting around. 


Keeping connected with who we are, where we come from and what we're made of will only enhance our ability to restore our vitality. Joining the dots of light and moments of inspiration, playfulness and deep gratitude will serve our higher selves and our everyday being.
