Messages from Gaia

We in nature do not see the past 50 years of chemical and manmade development from the standpoint of disaster and destructive failure. Surely the impact has been such. But rather, we see these years and the experiences they have given as deep lessons that have served to lay a foundation for the necessary changes of the present and future.

Some things ‘came to a head’ inside me this week. I realized how deeply discouraged I was about the problems I see upon the earth. I also realized how I was viewing them and taking them to heart. I was feeling like so many things I have done are wrong-doing things that pollute and overuse the earth’s resources-and the consequences of those decisions. I was seeing the negative aspect of choices we have made, personally and collectively. I was frightened about the destructive path that it feels we are on, in some ways.

In a flash of insight, I realized that it was truly me that was being negative and focusing on what is ‘wrong’ rather than all the good things that are happening. It was inside me, not outside from circumstances or other people. It felt like I was repeating a pattern that began in my childhood when my dad would tell me and my siblings everything we did wrong. Now it was me, doing it to myself by focusing on the problems, rather than the good things that are all around me.

I started crying when I realized how stuck in this fear and discouragement I was. I asked Gaia and Pan to help me see the bigger picture and to love me and comfort me. Something shifted deep inside me. I felt a renewed commitment to seeing the beauty and hope, rather than the problems. I realized it’s not about ignoring the problems but rather focusing on solutions and help that is so abundantly available. I asked Pan to give me his perspective.

Blessings, Mary

Dear and beloved ones,

Indeed it is humanity’s pattern at this Turning Time, to mirror and reflect back the perception of the lack, the scarcity, the blame and judgment of the current age. Neither Nature nor the Divine are a part of this critical pattern. We want to teach, to share, to co-create with you! We see the shining, light-filled parts of you! We LOVE you! Our hands are outstretched to you, offering our help and power and strength as you shift and change and move into the glorious future.

Self-blame only blocks the light and slows the process, for who can function well in a cloud of self-condemnation? Surely, you have been doing many wonderful things, learning and growing. Now it is time to use the things you have learned and build on the lessons from the past.

If you see big problems and challenges, simply ask for help. And that includes help in how to look at them, not just in the solving. Look into our eyes of love and see our caring, our deep compassion for you, our affirmation, our delight to share the path with you.

Often we have said that all you need will be provided. It will be given in rich abundance as you open your hands, your eyes, your ears, your hearts and receive the gifts that await you. Soon the old will disappear and the New will be visible for all to see. Rest in peacefulness and quietness as the New Age is birthed.

We love you, dear ones. I am Pan, your Nature Partner, your friend
