An oil spill, a wedding, and a prayer
May 22, Dolan Jones
Last week a couple of events, mostly unknown to mainstream, touted the appearance and overall sense of a twin effect, yin and yang, dark and light, opposites facing one another, and aimed for balance.
As oil on the Gulf of Mexico continues to leech out black blood into the sacred watershed that stores, filters, and provides our most basic life-giving substance, another event was taking place with the expectation of equilibrium.
Aside from allegedly innovative, pragmatic attempts at the oil spill clean-up, on May 18th, a world-wide event concentrated on a more optimistic attitude towards this disastrous spill.
A World Prayer for Water, led by female elders and dedicated groups across the world, prayed together, at most major waters sources, for the cleansing of all waters and hope for an abundant supply. Some people prayed at more local rivers and streams, like the Colombia, Willamette, and Calapooia Rivers. (Even a cup of water would suffice).
Will this combined act balance out the destruction caused by greed and outright contempt for the land?
Quantum physics say yes. Once we focus energy on a subject, we change it, literally on a cellular level. No more of this objective ballyhoo floating around in modern, practical science.
Underground, multiple energies went out to cleanse the Earth and its waters by prayer, spiritual intention, and focus.
Down in the southern state of Nevada, my youngest daughter married her sweetheart in Las Vegas, or The Meadows (original name).
Las Vegas, grew gargantuan-sized on the hope (with minimal supply of water and other necessities) to become one of the largest world-wide draws of the imagination.
Subtly, live the lizards, tumbleweeds, sagebrush, and palms. Here the wind whips, heat bears down, cold numbs, and nothing moves but the dust, at first glance.
Yet, from the imagination sprang anything imaginable, period, including hope for a future on this Earth, as was attested to by the wedding vows of this young couple.
Since I was born in Nevada, I had been inoculated against the pining of grandeur, splash and fame, but since I had to support my daughter and son-in-law's choices, I had to look at Las Vegas from a different perspective. It is a place of hope on a man-made scale, manifested.
Much like the clean-up of the Gulf of Mexico.
With the added prayers of mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, sons and daughters, to all the Gods and Goddesses.
Love Always
