Together we are creating templates for the new earth.

~Pan, leader of the nature spirits, god of the woodlands

I woke up last night and heard these words.  I have absolutely loved Pan, ever since I read about him in Roc Crombie’s book ‘The Gentleman and the Faun’.  Roc is one of the founders of the Findhorn community in Scotland.  The early Christian church portrayed Pan as the devil which separated him from humans in a major way.  Roc played a big role in helping people to see that Pan is a huge helper in nature, which includes us.  The separation is now being healed as people reconnect to nature, the Seen and Unseen realms.

How are we creating templates or patterns for the new earth?  First of all, I think we do it by seeing nature as our partner and working with nature rather than exploiting or fighting with it.  I think we also acknowledge the nature beings who design our physical world and bring it into physical form.  We express our gratitude for all that they do.  Then, we join them in joyful co-creation.  We do our part and they do theirs.

Gardening and landscaping can be a beautiful palette for template building.  I love watching my husband Blair in our garden as he enjoys and celebrates the opportunity to partner with nature spirits and nature devas.  Gardening is something that feeds my soul, as well, and teaches me so much about the abundance that is very available to us.

There are many other ways to be a template creator.  In our relationships, we can build new templates that transform how we relate to each other.  My daughter recently had a baby and it is so wonderful to see her husband being a true partner with parenting, sharing roles and responsibilities.

I have a friend who is employed in a very toxic work environment.  She is able to keep her focus on the clients she is dedicated to helping and slough off the difficult parts.  She is a template creator, I think.  Other friends are living their ‘both are true’ outlook on life as they negotiate a very challenging situation with a neighbor.  They are honoring their own needs and standing their ground, literally, in a nonviolent way that does not diminish the other party.  They are creating a template that will be available for many others, as they share what they have done and learned.

Dorothy MacLean, another founder of the Findhorn community, said that when she worked with nature spirits and devas, she found them eager to partner with humans to create gardens and then community between people.  Nature was excited to be included as a valuable partner, rather than humans focusing only on their role.  I think this is even more true today, as the need to restore the earth to health has become so acute.

So, let’s consciously and intentionally join the fun!  Let’s embrace the opportunities to co-create with our friends in the Unseen realm of nature.

Blessings, Mary

My dear and beloved co-creators,

How my heart sings when I see humans awakening to the joy and gifts of partnering with the nature beings who surround you but are not visible to your physical eyes.  We are as real as the nose on your face but are often overlooked because your current culture does not usually acknowledge our existence.

We are wiggling with excitement at the opportunity to share in glad co-creation!  One plus one does not make two.  Together we expand our efforts and energy exponentially!  Miracles are abundantly available for the asking.  But you need to ask!  You need to envision amazing things happening, things that seem impossible in your limited perspective of the world.

You can start small.  Imagine something wonderful happening, even if your rational mind says it’s not possible.  Be expectant and watchful.  Do what you can and ask for help for the things you can’t do by yourself.  You will be surprised at what can occur.  Keep asking and I can assure you that together we can make all things new.

I love you, dear ones.  I am Gaia, your Earth Mother, your friend
