Poetic Peace Pilgrimage – Year 9 – Day 174 – 6/8/2022

today is so very sacred… it’s world oceans day, a day i love, love, love with waters making up 70% of mama gaia’s body and ours while microscopically we are 99% water; it is all the more sacred for me as it coincides significantly, synchronizes with the seventh anniversary of the opening of the fire eye, a seven year initiation into the great turning, the shift of the ages, the coming home to the heart, the deepening into mystical/mythical consciousness of imagination in that field of the great beyond where everything is interbeing as one, related, connected living organism always expanding and always deepening… yes, let’s celebrate on this dark night when the invisible realms are birthing dancing stars and re-member WATER as an acronym for whom we truly are: We Are The Eternal Radiance…

Happy Cosmic Ocean of Being Day!

Canada made the original proposal for World Oceans Day in 1992 at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. The day has been unofficially celebrated every June 8 since then, and, in 2008, the United Nations officially recognized it.

today, i celebrate with a special return interior pilgrimage to the sea of love energy, sacred space of dancing rainbow mystery, such a journey always brings me back into soul space… is there anything more deepening than listening to our mother waters magnetizing us home?… than breathing in the rhythms of waves?… than flowing and ebbing with the tides?…

“To me the sea is a continual miracle; The fishes that swim–the rocks–the motion of the waves…” ~ Walt Whitman ~

“We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch – we are going back from whence we came”… ~ John F Kennedy ~

The cure for anything is salt water…” ~ Isak Dinesen

As the First Peoples remind us and live… Mni Wiconi, Water is Life… Like the First Peoples and Sylvia Earle, I think of the ocean as the blue heart of the planet… It is the one true connection of all our relations – let us celebrate her everyday…

speaking of the First Peoples, i must take the opportunity of this sacred day to amplify the 2000 voices gathered in northern minnesota at the headwaters of the mississippi on Anishinaabe land to stop the black snake by quoting one of the organizers of this treaty gathering, Tara Houska:

“We love our water protectors. They’re incredible. They’re amazing. They’re out here on the frontlines defending this beautiful, beautiful territory and using their bodies, using their agency, using their hearts, using their minds, using their power to stand up for something more. … We have treaty that were guaranteed for this place. They’re in violation of that. They’re in direct violation of their own laws. And we are not trespassing. We are — this is our land. This is our territory. Enbridge is trespassing, just like all the other companies in so many other places where sovereign nations have said no.”

the people, united, will never be divided! the people, united, will never be divided! we stand with Indigenous nations! may the oceans of being, the seas of love energy be the mighty harmonist in this and every moment of eternity…
