1 BEN Evolution of the Spirit Incarnate
by Minisa Crumbo Halsey

Tracking, identifying and managing the various aspects of the mutable desire bodies as they arise and develop out of our core relationship – the Creator, Master of All Breath, endeavors to express not only divine intention but aspires to extend the creative principles, as branches of a mighty tree, in service to both core spirit, the principle of duality AND the manifested union of both as they move within the Evolution of The Spirit Incarnate.

It is out of the manifested and manifesting unions of these principles, when viably connected with collective and also personal creation stories, that energetic etheric streams begin to arise, coalesce and collect primary cognizance.

The further development of identity and the will and willingness to gain expression is still closely linked with creative origins but with expansion comes contact with external influences. The cellular and spiritual memory of Divine intention is challenged. Original source memory is challenged AND awarded the complex of creative energy by which to retain, remember, organize and seat these powerful impulses. Continue Reading

The Serious Sun of Planting the Evolutionary Crops of Happiness, Health and Love; Returning Home to the Heart

AHAU: The Serious Sun of Planting the Evolutionary Crops of Happiness, Health and Love; Returning Home to the Heart
by Minisa Crumbo Halsey

Beloveds,

Evening on the River
The sowing of the selected and random seeds of Spring is intimately tied to the happiness cycle of sowing and reaping. Now, more than ever it is of paramount  importance that we allow ourselves to travel the paths of true appreciation, love and happiness.

Numbering among the myriad planting rows and paths we would continue seeking Ways by which to remember ‘being breathed’, for the unseen Ways of the Creator travel upon these energetic and physical, smoke like, pathways, linking all things to each other and most importantly, providing interactive connection to the vast Creative mind, heart, body and Spirit.

These are the paths we must now discover and traverse for the wisdom and knowledge necessary to continue living ‘in a good way. Distraction from the core intentions of this time can not longer be permitted to steal attention and energy from the more important endeavors of returning home to healthy interactive connection with the Creator. There is no more time for entertaining the erroneous, heartbreaking and damaging perceptions of separation with the Creator. This will not hold. Continue Reading

For the Trecena of Sun/AHAU …

For the Trecena of Sun/AHAU …
 
The rain has stopped ... it’s still and the night sky is beautiful.

There was a fire ceremony today and four new white candles were lit to symbolically light and welcome the WAY for the illumination and inspiration of moving spring.

But, Illumination and inspiration appeared to be illusive ... I’ve had my ear to the ground and the winds, however truly inspired flow still seems remain heavily on the outflow. While much of this outflow can be and is, identified as illumination it seems to point back to very much of an older and more personal nature. These thoughts would open onto a few words for us to move upon mindfully together as we enter into this new trecena. Continue Reading

Ceremony | Jaguar Spirit

Bozho jayek,
 
I would like to introduce my column, Ceremony, on the Jaguar Spirit, Mayan Calendar site.
 
I find the ancient Mayan Calendar system to complement the Medicine Wheel Teachings in my book SPIRIT TALK, each, one of the worlds great 'Medicine' systems and each anchored deeply within the heartland of the Americas and therefore deep within our bone, fiber, blood and nerve.
 
I hope you enjoy Ceremony and visit me on Jaguar Spirit, explore the site and on my website for current arts events, schedules, articles and Spirit Driven News to be found here, upon and within.

Bama mine,

The Spring Circle of Life

The Spring Circle of Life

Bozho, Breathers of Integrity,

It is a 9 IK day … Crafting a Spiritual Press Release … and Here, today and indeed during all days of this season, we find ourselves within a Spring Circle of Life ... a time when certain spirit beings of growth return to answer our song and call of partnership which is voiced and carried by our sacred breath.

Call and response ceremonies, together with intention, tradition and structures of disciplined observation and repetition remain core avenues of mind, heart, body and spirit communication.

Deep beneath the late winter covers of the Mother Earth can be heard the faint visceral stirrings of breath, heartbeat and blood … life stirring within the dens of the young bear moon … green onion shoots emerging straight and strong bringing blood medicine … and maple tree blood rising to help us remember the sweetnesses of life.
