This morning I woke up thinking about the time I met the great Hopi Elder Thomas Banyacya. It was 1992, and my friend Eleanor Johnson arranged an evening in her Village loft, where he could meet our NY community.
He was coming to deliver the Hopi prophecy to the United Nations that warned the world against a devastating purification and disruption that was threatening the world because we were living out of balance with spiritual laws. His message was clear: we needed to change our consciousness and come into the right relationship with the earth and her resources.
How true are those haunting words?
However, he also described a time when ”If we return to spiritual harmony and live from our hearts, we can experience a paradise in this world."
As Thomas said so clearly, we are living out of balance and out of sync with Nature and our Creator. To be able to navigate this time of change and chaos, we need to reconnect with the natural cycles of Mother Earth. What better time than this weekend as we move into The Fall Equinox - Mabon (Spring Equinox in the Southern Hemisphere).
And, it is also the UN International Peace Week, where there is a call for Peace on Earth by 2030. This will take a deep transformation of people’s hearts and minds and will take dedication to clearing out the old worn-out beliefs that we are holding that keep us from connecting to our god/goddess presence and real peace.
Fall Equinox Ritual
APPRECIATING WHAT IS. Stop treating life like it’s a race. Let go of rushing from one thing to the next like life is an endless race to complete your to-do list.
Recognize the beauty and the gift of each moment instead of running past them.
Go outside Saturday Night and wish on a star.
“Star light, Star bright,
First star I see tonight.
I wish I may, I wish I might.
Have a wish I wish tonight.”
Now make a wish. Let it be something that brings peace, joy, and balance into your life!

Until next time,
