The book
"In 1962 after several years working in a hotel their employment was terminated. With nowhere to go, Peter, Eileen, Dorothy and the three young boys towed their caravan & moved to a caravan park near Findhorn, Scotland. With no job & 6 to feed Peter decided to grow vegetables. The land in the caravan park was sandy and dry, weather in Scotland cold & windy, but he persevered.

Dorothy who meditated, discovered she was able to intuitively contact the overlighting intelligence of plants – the devas – who gave her instructions on how to make the most of their garden. They grew huge plants, herbs and flowers, like 40-pound cabbages. Word spread, horticultural experts came and were stunned, and this garden at Findhorn became famous."

I hadnt been successful in veg growing in my garden. Since lockdown in march 2020 after we 23 Islanders were banned from leaving our island, we were given food boxes & started ordering online, this made me realise i needed to grow some food. Early spring this year i decided to try talking to whoever was living in my garden even though i couldn’t see any elementals. But i started to sense their presence and found they guided me what to do, what not to do etc. Digging, composting, building wind breaks, leaving all the grass to grow long. It worked!

Yeah! Its amazing, i too didnt know. My one tiny seedling plant grew to 3 times higher than the picture. Was like a small tree with yellow blossom.

And the bees adore it too :honeybee:
I think the fact this veg grows abundantly here suggests its healthy. There are new shoots on the same plant & the leaves are like cabbage to eat through the winter.

Do you grow vegetables or enjoy gardening or have dreams to do?

Yeah that was a really potent realization. And how a few changes to the clear cutting regulations could help save vital trees and promot a fater recovery of the land.

Sending them love? Talking to them? Meditating by them (they really like your breath :wink:)

I really liked that story, If I got the star tingles like you, I would have gotten them reading that lol.

No vegtibiles, but I have planted a few trees, shrubs, plants, and vines, in a small plot of land.

The neighbors made fun of me when I did it.
(I think they were just ‘Jelly’…):

I could not have wanted a dog, but the landlord would not allow it, so I struck I deal to work the land, for reduced rent.

Most of the plants and trees I bought were damaged and on sale, so I learned how to nurse them back to health. They were like dogs and cats for me. I gave them a lot of love and attention, and was rewarded with them thriving, and a few ‘jelly’ monsters in the neighborhood.

It made me wonder at the time if they could feel that love and attention. This was before covid hit. Now there is no dount in my mind they could feel something.

No visual or auditory hallucinations, but I felt there was a presence to them. I would visualize in my mind the electrons moving and the magnetic feidls they produced to remind myself, just becuase I can see their life force, doesnt mean there are not remarkable things going on hidden from sight.

In the Premonitions thread, I dont think I would have been able to have the experience I had if I had not taken the time to really get to know Mother nature on an intimate level.

I loved planting in the rain, easy to work the soil, and I had a hunch that the trees and plants were ‘singing’ md rejoicing, even though I couldnt hear anything. Like they were giving off subtle positive vibes (maybe that was just a projection? :upside_down_face:)

So yes long story short lol, I am a tree hugger, without the hugging. I do treat them like dogs, and love feeding them when they are thirsty. After covid hit, I found Ekhart tolles videos, and started meditating with them. A few years later I found Andrews work and Shamatha meditation (which explained ekharts methods)

Funny, I got similar vibes too. Like I would know intuitively when something needed water after a hot week or two, and if I ingnored my intuition, they would start to wilt the subsequent days.

I think its a very powerful way to connect to our Anscestors and to Mother nature.

Cool! That’s wonderful to hear!
If i hadn’t read this book where Penny talked of the Findhorn Garden in my country, (weather not great) i would have missed out big time!

@NightHawk999 … ahhh im so pleased i asked you

Really enjoyed reading your story with the Plant Kingdom and you too sensing/intuitively knowing the Elemental’s around.

That’s mean of your neighbours!

Yes … that’s it … a “vibe” of just knowing, like they (Elemental’s) somehow have an ability to make one’s senses feel with a heightened awareness!

Certainly to “Mother nature” but id not thought about it being a way to connect to the Ancestors.

@NightHawk999 i remember you said you felt Ireland was a part of your Ancestors, but do you feel connected to America Ancient past? Native American and their plant medicines?

Theres a great book (aware you have a big pile to read) i know you’ll love. Its a true story about a man who has some very extraordinary experiences in his sleep/dream time. (Personally id not read too much about the story in advance as could spoil the mystery found in it).

Is what it is, and they kind of had to eat crow when the guy and his wife ended upmdoing the same thing I did. :upside_down_face:

Was a cool feeling of connection to know they were consuming my CO2, and I was being nurished by their O2.

On a deeper level it was cool when I had the insight that by Hollowing the dead clay ground with holes I had ‘Hallowed’ the earth with living roots and 1000s of microorganisms that thrived off the plant and tree root ecosystem. The ground had become so much more alive!

Almost all of our Ancestors had PHDs in plant medicine, plant food, and plant utility. So many cultures these days have divorced themselves from this powerful knowledge.

Yes. Without their help, the colonists most likely would have perished, and then the settlers stole the land from them. Pretty fucked up. What the Nazis did during the Holocaust is childs play compared to the gennocides that took place in the Americas. Covid was not the first act of bio terrorism on America and the world, mankind has used bio weapons for 1000s of years.

I dont know much, but have tremendous respect for the knowledge they passed down. And I am always looking to learn more.

I love the cover art :wink:

Might be a while before I get to it, will try to get a copy of it from the library.

I feel that too! … with a couple of my houseplants. Its odd how one can get attached to a plant, start talking to it… “how are you today?”… “is that enough?” whilst giving them water.

Totally get where you’re coming from!
A feeling of joy that feels more natural than feeding the Ego.

You’re right! Hadn’t thought of it that way.

Yep!!! Totally on the same page with your thoughts there!
I’m Scottish. Their history after the Jacobite risings of the Highlanders.
English Royalty and Elites caused so much widespread massacre.

Thought that would be the case.

I like this book which describes the experience of the Plains Indians. I’ve purchased it for as low as $1.01. It’s one of the three greatest books I’ve ever read and gives quite a picture of the colonization of the Great Plains from a Native perspective. It also gives a deep and rich exposition of an amazingly relevant spiritual philosophy!

Odd? I think its pretty awesome that you can love them almost as much as you would a dog or a child.

Amen

Great minds think a like. :slightly_smiling_face:

I know nothing about this history, and very little about most histories of the world.

Lol, stop it, what do you want me to drown in this exponentially growing pile of books? If I get it from the library, it allows me to read a chunck, or most of it, and then buy the actual book at a later date, and reread it. You act like Christmas isnt right around the corner (I got a good video you will like on its origins)

Adding it to the list too, I am always interested in learning about the tribes spirituality

Do you know the story behind the bison near extiction?
Pretty fucked up:

:joy: lucky i already get you’re sense of humour! But noted to add a :wink: so as to get my drift. I often offend people because i think they know what i mean, forgetting my sense of humour ive experienced most dont get! :smile:

The Penny story (post 20) of Alvey telling Penny off i wouldn’t have experienced the way she reacted, would you?

Using the phrase “Odd” to excuse, some readers may not be as understanding as you, and thank you for that!

Id have to take a ferry to another island where i doubt they’d have books like this. Its great you have that convenience :blush: I too am aware of recycling. 90% of books i buy second hand. Others i buy as eBooks online.

My copy of Spirit Walker is my 2nd and its an old 2nd hand, having lost my 1st.

Do you mean the video of Scrooge ? (No offence taken if thats your meaning :smile:)

Ho :santa: ho :santa: ho !:santa:

Pretty cool synchronicity with the convo here over the past few days, just watched Dr Eds most recent video:

Ask the Sleep Doctor | 30 |

" Okie dokie. Um, let me have one introductory comment about plants. You know, I just got a new newsletter from the bio nears who allow nature work a lot of ecology. And they have an article by Susan Samad who’s you may know her from discovering the mother trees and all the the fungal networks that connect the mother trees and how the mother trees nurture the young trees. They can tell each other apart. And it’s like they’re raising their children just like we do. And the last line so this is why the green plan is still really important. After a lifetime as a forest detective, my perception of the Woods has been turned upside down. With each new revelation I am more deeply embedded in the forest. Scientific evidence is impossible. To ignore. The forest is wired for wisdom, sentience and healing. So that plant goes right up there with the animals.

Okay, let me just say real quick, that there’s a I’ve mentioned this. That’s a beautiful, beautiful statement. I mentioned this video several times if people haven’t watched it, check it out. Maybe Alyssa can find a link to it. I found it on Amazon. It’s a beautiful video documentary. I think it’s called either aware, or awareness, colon glimpses of consciousness. I can’t remember the subtitle, but they they interview I’m spacing her name, but they’re interviewing this this. Scientist is kind of plant ecologist person and I can’t remember her name Margaret’s brother. And she actually her research is actually showing how plants learn how plants can actually be taught. And it’s it’s a beautiful film The images are really spectacular. highly highly recommended, but one of the highlights for me was learning the stuff about the our sentient life forms in the not just the plant kingdom but the flora kingdom. phonic and so so cool. Anyway, I’ll disappear. Great."

Glad to see the science is finally catching up

I did not tell you, about 2 weeks I saw one of the most beautiful Red Cedar trees growing I have ever seen growing in residential/commercial real estate.
looked similar to these in size and shape:


I was blown away by the synchronicity, due to the fact we had been talking about this topic recently, and I almost never see these trees in commerical or residential areas near where I live.

On a fluke to get out of the cold wind, I went down to a ‘basement garden’ of a business, located down a flight of stairs, outdoors, with cement walls, and there it was. Green and vibrant, looking so healthy.

Very meaningful. I knew it was a powerful synchronicty, when later walking through the same neihborhood, I saw a spruce with an added face like this:

Heres the actual tree, growing very close to the house, portecting it from the wind and rain.


cant see the face in these pics, but can you see how the left lower branch looks like a small human arm, and the right is much more massive branches? It totally looked like it was half man, half tree, with the half tree arm protecting the roof of the house.

The Cherokee Indians believe(d) Red Cedar trees were there ancestors. Shared this with @BlessingsDeers , I think you will like the story too:

Worth noting the soil had not frozen yet, and still hasnt, but will because we get harsh winters here. Here the time of Sagittarius is when the ground is very close to no longer being able to be dug to bury bodies, plant seeds, or transplant things. I am guess this is somewhat similar in the more nothern regions of europe.

Beautiful synchronicities, especially when they warm our hearts (and body), and open our horizons in seeing things that were always there, for the first time…
Interesting that you mention the tree looking like a human… usually what I notice is that some humans are like trees… perhaps inspired by once, in a high magic journey I did, the teacher mentioning I had been a tree in previous lives… in the very beginning of trees being here on this planet. From then on, it’s easier for me to spot that in a human being.
About trees protecting houses… I’m not sure I agree… sometimes they give extra humidity and block the energies, as so well explained in Feng Shui. I LOVE trees and i feel they need their community to be truly happy.

When you shared that cedar story, you also shared this link that I enjoyed very much:

Thank you beloved @BlessingsDeers for liking this post today, where ive said:

Its been a problem not always funny.

Thank goodness for emojis.


Beautifully said :hugs:

Theres a lot more to Cedar than i thought. For a long time apart from it being a stunning hardwood coniferous tree, had little knowledge of it accept its use as a moth ball to protect woolen cloth.

Wow! Im having a synchronicity with this post about Cedars; Cedars of Lebanon in the Bible.

Cedar tree meaning the tree in your dream when you moved pass the branches eagle sitting on top?
Certainly a synchronicity! The tree may have been planted there before the buildings. Would be interesting to know what was there before.

Now this is an exceptional synchronicity for me. Yesterday my birthday present from my sister is 2 elf like bearded characters like your photo. As soon as i unwrapped them standing just 23cm tal they telepathically said their names are Urim and Thummim.
Later i was looking online for a garden ornament for my sisters xmas present.

Looking at your photo i can see a face.



Ahhh thats a lovely story. I knew Cedar is an important tree as well as its incense but not heard this before.
Just looked up Cedar in a book i have.

Yes everything hibernates here. But we have the extremes like the story. In summer all da/night is light with maybe an hour of dim light at midnight. Winters feel long and mostly dark.

So my other synchronicity i mentioned at the start is that the day before yesterday i was reading about Cedar trees :flushed:.
Heres the screen shot i took on the 13th.

Big time!

Lookslike it was a good thing I forgot to tell you about the tree face. Its somewhat of an anomoly here. Not something I see often, but when I do see it, always makes me smile.

Totally, good spot on the eyes!

Here is how my mind kind of visualized it when I first saw it:

half & half

Good point, I may have been too optimistic about it. (roots messing with pipes, tornados sending the tree into all the rooms of the house, fire from lightning, etc).

For me though, that day was so cold and windy, and when I got close to the cedar it was cool to see how it protected from the nasty breeze.

That sense of protection came to mind when I saw the house spruce, so close to the house like a body guard, breaking nasty wind fronts, and sucking up heavy rain water to prevent basement leaks. They have a remarkable ability to keep the ground warmer than average. Great scent, fresh air, and a home for hummingbirds.

Yeah love this. Cedar and medicine go hand in hand with many NA tribes. Guess what type of business the tree was planted at? :stethoscope: :medical_symbol: :heavy_plus_sign:
Rest assured, I dont think the cedar was chosen by mistake. The small garden contained all evergreen foliage, even the ground cover, another nice metaphor.

Tell me more? Dont know about these cedars, but I do know tree sap was so sacred, it was gifted to Christ at birth by the wise men.

I have seen herb books list red cedar smoke as being very spiritual, among many other sources.

“the signiture of cedar is quite esoteric…”

Really liked reading that passage. Not sure what the 8th and 9th dimensions are though.

I would challenge the other passages point about camels:

A Brief History of Frankincense | Lapham’s Quarterly.

interesting ties to Egypt:

" The ancient Egyptians prized frankincense for the resin they used to make the characteristic dark eyeliner and myrrh as an embalming agent for deceased pharaohs …"
