Love Letters are Miracles

Happy Summer Solstice!!

when I get asked "what is Emeralds & Rue exactly?"

my most simple response is that this prayer project is my love letter to Mother Earth..

on the longest day of the year, I wanted to leave you with the love letter that I wrote 1 year ago that essentially guided this whole project..I didn't exactly know where this love letter would end up... but that's the beauty of planting seeds of love, we can't always be sure how or when they'll bloom :)

some people say that love letters are a lost art.. i just thank God that this has never been a reality for me. for whatever reason I've always had the gift of receiving and sending hand written love letters all around the world.. when i was in high school I had a secret admirer in Australia & each month was sent a gorgeous love letter in the mail.. though I never met them, what a gift it was each month to open a love letter from a soul I didn't actually know that wanted to share their heart with me so sweetly... everywhere I've moved or lived, someone from around the world always sends me hand written love letters... thank you so much, you know who you are and I love you with all my heart.

I've always hand written love letters to each person whose changed my life in big ways.. I've also kept every love letter I've ever received.. and WOW what a gift to have this... not just emails, but hand written letters of love, signed in love, dropped off at the post office only to await the text or call after it's been received...

if there's ONE thing I know for sure... it's that love letters are miracles.. & it is ALWAYS a good idea to write & send the love letter..

so here it is, my first of many love letters to you.. & if you've never received a hand written love letter in the mail with a stamp on it, please email me and i will send you one..

::an emerald love letter from me to you::

I pray  to create beauty and harmony everywhere I go: to water & adorn Mother Earth with offering prayers from my heart’s soul. 

I see the oasis inside of your heart, and each time you give gratitude to Mother Nature, you help to create art. 

this art is eternal, and the gift that we will give to all the golden ones to come. 

I envision a world anchored in reciprocal emerald love, and with your offerings of gratitude, & your choice to live in reciprocity with Mother Earth, you help this vision come to life. 

when gratitude & love is given back to our Mother Earth, it activates our hearts, voices, and inner songs.

flowers we're planting that future generations will see bloom - illuminated by the vibration of our voices and hearts in tune. 

at these times here on Earth, how important and beautiful your inner song is: Aloha, and thank you for taking the time to give. 

I pray for your remembering, your expansion and delight, may you remember to connect to the emerald oasis in your heart & the waters inside your body each day and night. 

::from the emeralds in my heart to the emeralds in your heart, and back to her emerald lands::

May the prayers you pray on this Summer Solstice day be carried in the highest and quickest ways by the hummingbirds of love..

May your day be sprinkled with beautiful moments of sweetness, joy & love

If you need a miracle right now, here is your sign.. to open your hands, turn to the highest power you believe in & ask the divine.

PS I invite you to also consider writing a love letter to yourself... if you feel inspired, take some time today, make a gorgeous drink & go for it.. everything you LOVE about YOU!!

In Love, Grace, and Beauty
