Honey Bees & Mountain Peaks

Hi from under the desert sun. A cozy Winter I’ve found it to bee. 

I trust that if you’re here, reading these, you feel a deep call & resonance with deepening in reciprocal relationship with the elements & Gaia, hearing the voices of the trees, & remembering that you are many drops of sacred waters in a beautiful woven tapestry of you. 

At these moments in my life, it feels the most aligned cultivate deeper slowing down & bee-ing, tending to my dreams, making bread, & bathing in the balm of quietude. This sacred contained space of Emeralds & Rue is the only place I'm sharing my art at these moments, & this feels as sweet as honey.

So by the great Emerald Mystery you are here, thank you for being on this journey of slow blooms & sweet perfumes with me.

I thank the plants & the bees for being so sweet & patient with me. 

I thank the land, the Grandmother Trees, The Sun & Moon, Thunder Mountain, Emerald Mountain, Hahns Peak, Pikes Peak, Longs Peak, Mount Elbert, The San Juan Mountains, Moffit Peak, and the Waters that weave all the mountains together, and the Bees that make life possible. & the flowers that make perfume possible!

Thank you, Aloha to the Bees.

The bees may reach for me, the plants may reach for me, the land & waters may reach for me… but in this collaborative world of relationship with Mother Earth, my co-creation & reciprocal relationship is to reach too for them.. in reciprocity, reverence, care, love. 

Things happen slowly around here. 

I have many dreams for my life, but I bow to the slow serenity of the mystery.

This winter, I’ve been laying to rest deep patterning around striving, & “doing” & attuning more to womb consciousness of being, receptivity & the hive of my heart. 

A great unraveling of my being has beegunn & I bear witness to integration of the bees into my reality. 

In my eyes, the bees are healers & wise elders. 

Their frequency brings finely tuned resonant fields of sound that harmonize one’s vibrational state. 

I feel the flowers and bees are teachers of cyclical wisdom, & divine union. Agape Love. They teach me the importance of balance, while simultaneously showing me how out of balance humanity is collectively while simultaneously showing me how I can continually return to balance.. from a place of peace & ease internally.

Balance looks differently for every single human, as we are all unique & on our own souls journey. 

I would imagine that if you are here reading this, you have some sort of relationship with the elements, may that be one in particular or all of them. 

Maybe you love the ocean? Or you have a fav nature spot?  Maybe, like me, perfume is your love language, or you love gardening, or you just love this one specific park, or you long to go to the mountains because xyz.. 

As we live out our daily lives, how can one notice the ways we are already in relationship with the elements & deepen here? What if the next time we go to nature, we bring some bird seeds, or a flower, or maybe even some honey or sugar & give this offering gift back to Gaia? 

To weave a deeper co-create with Gaia, is quite simple actually. 

This is where I find offerings & communication come into place. Maybe just maybe it’s as simple as bringing a flower to the ocean next time we go, or bringing a flower to the tree, or sharing a song with the land, or quite writing our own Water Prayer & speaking it to Water each day.

I wonder what this looks like for you? I'd love to hear! :)

To give because we are humans who have hands to give back go Gaia. 

I pray to simplify elemental & earth based connection & relationship. 

To return to simple ways, & create a simple life.

A slow life. 

A quiet life. 

This world can feel so complicated at times but things can actually be so simple, it’s just a matter of finding what nourishes, grounds us & feels authentic & true to our hearts. 

For me I return to my prayers morning & night because it simplifies just about everything. 

Prayer too, is only half of it.. Faith is the other part & sometimes my Faith can be tested, yet a different perspective (aha thanks Moon Flower) is the testing of one’s Faith actually brings greater capacity for Faith + Love + trust in self & God. 

Lastly, I wanted to share some beauty blooms of Rosemary because they make me so happy to see, so I wanted to share this joy with you :)

Love,

Jessica
