Feeling the Earth’s Body, Energy, and Soul
…when I think of the Earth, the picture that first comes to my mind is one taken by a satellite from outer space, a blue-green ball tantalizingly covered with wisps of white clouds. To communicate with the Earth’s heart, but not only know the Earth on a physical level, but also know her on a spiritual one. It is far more important to be able to feel the wholeness of the Earth than to know her geological history or the correct correlation of her limestone layers.
Have you ever said “Good Morning!” to a stand of particularly tall grass or a wild flower that opened its petals especially early one morning? Anyone who is a gardener has had experiences of talking with the plants under his or her care. When you have an experience of feeling the ‘heart’ of a plant, you no longer regard the plant as mere decoration, but as an entity of life. In point of fact, you have not actually spoken to the plant in the usual sense, but you have indeed felt and sensed the energy and soul of the life expressed through the shape and form of the plant. Likewise, in order to communicate with the earth, we must come to know Earth as a living entity, with a material body, life energy, and an eternal soul, as all forms of life.
