"Let Us Help You Heal"

A new Akashic reading adventure

I was walking by the lake a while back when the idea came to me to do Akashic readings of different beings in nature and some manmade things. I almost immediately did a reading for Seneca Lake. But I didn't write down any of my notes at the time so I don't remember what I learned specifically. I do remember I felt loved. Like, Deeply Loved. So, maybe that's the most important thing to remember, anyway. 

I forget, then remember

I fully intended to do lots of readings. But I completely forgot the idea. For months. And then maybe a few more months. Maybe even a year? I can't remember for sure, actually. But eventually, I did remember again. I had about 30 minutes of free time between things on my agenda last week. I sat on the couch with my journal and my Akashic Tarot cards. I think I was going to do a reading for myself...then I looked out the back window and saw the Great Oak Tree. Ki* had been through a lot - we trimmed ki's branches about a month ago and then, soon after, we had the septic tank replaced (ki's roots had grown through the old one and broken it). It occured to me ki might have something to share with me/us.

A simple message

After I opened ki's records, I felt a strange (and good) tingling through my body....not really a tingling, maybe a feeling of cells popping open? It seemed to start on the upper right side of my body and move through me down to my right foot...so mostly on my right side, but some crossover in my mid-section. After the  tingling, I fell hard asleep. Like, boom, asleep sitting straight up on my couch, with my head dropping forward. That happens a lot when I read my own records, but rarely when I read for anyone/anything else. Eventually (I have no idea how long), I woke up and realized what had happened. I asked the records if there was a message that Great Oak Tree's Masters, Teachers, and Loved Ones wanted to share. I immediately heard the words, "Heal. Let us help you heal." 

 I always need more info

That was a lovely message, but I always need more info than a short and sweet message can deliver. So I asked the records to choose a card for me that would support this  message and give me a bit more of a clue. The card I pulled was "You Are The Light of The World."  

Breaking into song

The song from Godspell jumped into my brain..."you are the light of the world, you are the light of the world. But if that light is under a bushell,  it's lost something kind of crucial...you gotta stay bright to be the light of the world!" 

Digging deeper

With the song still running through my head, I read the meaning of the card as written in the tarot deck booklet...

"An old Sage holds a glowing lantern and knocks on a door with no latch. A young man inside is too distracted to answer the knock. Your Divine being is trying to get your attention. All it takes is a moment of your awareness to open the door. Though your life may be busy, the opportunity now presents itself for you to move into a higher awareness. It’s a great time to open to your Higher Self and all its wisdom and powers. It is your Soul, your Eternal Being, who approaches, but it is up to you - and only you - to open the door. You do that by taking real and regular action in knowing (and feeling) the wise and radiant being you are forever. Through meditation and study, you can own that enormous love, power, and vision.

You can make every day sacred by going within. Once you do, you will know a radiant and greater power in every step and with every word. You will be able to bring this magnificent force to your world, changing your life forever.

Akashic Force:  With a deep breath, you fill yourself with the grace and peace and light of your Higher Self. Your vision opens to a wider Universe. And you realize that you have all the time - and power - in the world. Eternity fills you."  

All together now...

So...the message from the Great Oak Tree is to let kin help you/us heal and to remember you/we are the light of the world. The Great Oak Tree said "Let US help you heal." Plural. So now, when we go within, when we fill ourselves with grace and peace and light, we can invite the trees and other nature beings to support us in our journey.  We can go into nature or we can just think of these beings and ask them to join us.

What if? 

What if we accept their offer? What if that helps  us all lean into our own Light? 

What if you share your experience with me in the comments below? :)
