Art in the Making: Entering the Void with the Eyes Open 9

Tree World Revisited: Beltane (Extended)

Behold, my brothers, the spring has come;

The earth has received the embraces of the sun

And we shall soon see the results of that love!

 

Every seed is awakened and so has all animal life.

It is through this mysterious power that we too have our being

And we therefore yield to our neighbors,

Even our animal neighbors,

The same right as ourselves, to inhabit this land.

— Sitting Bull

Tonight Brian and I were taking a walk when he noticed sap dripping from a birch tree onto the sidewalk, making a puddle. It was dripping from a broken spot of a branch. This confirmed that the upward energy I was sensing as I drew is indeed real. It touched my heart.

I just discovered that in England the May moon is known as hare moon– Hare emerged from the grass as I drew. May moon is also known as grass moon (different traditions have different names for each moon).

 

Worship the trees as My feet, and you will become one with the heart of the world.

— The Self

What is the Self? It is the pure awareness of “I am,” the original “I” consciousness which has been within us ever since we came into this world.

— Swami Muktananda
