Some dis-assembly required!
~Gaia
We have all seen the phrase ‘some assembly required’ on packages, items, etc. For someone who doesn’t have much mechanical skill, I am generally not happy to see those words.
Right now it feels like dis-assembly is happening everywhere I look. The crumbling of the foundations of our current culture and worldview can be disorienting, confusing and even frightening. It certainly seems to be stirring up a lot of fear and ugliness, at least according to the media, and in a lot of places we can see.
It feels like we need to detach from much of the drama and noise we are experiencing right now. Of course, we want to be caring and respond to injustices. But staying grounded, centered and peaceful helps more than we may realize. It hardly seems like the world needs more anger, blame and finger pointing at this time.
I am taking an intense healing class right now and we have learned to be in hara alignment. It means connecting deep into the center of the earth and also to the Divine above our head. We become a bridge between heaven and earth. When I am in hara, I feel peaceful, still and quiet. I am learning to return to this peaceful place when I get stirred up, distressed or upset. Then the actions I take feel better and are often more effective. Everyone can find practices that help them-meditation, yoga, focus on breath and so many others.
In this time of dis-assembly, let’s be the change we want to see in the world. As we join hands and hearts, the energy lightens and we can find a quiet place in the storm.
Blessings, Mary

Dear ones, my beloved,
Yes, there is dis-assembly going on throughout the earth and beyond. It’s like a house where clutter has accumulated, the roof is leaking and underneath the foundation has rotted. It’s not time to just re-arrange the clutter! No, it’s time to clear things out, assess the situation and carefully take things apart. Save the parts that can be re-used and recycle the parts that are no longer functional. Then the re-building can begin. If you see the big picture of what is happening, you will be able to participate in what needs to be done.
Nature does this all the time! Things are constantly forming and growing. Other things are dis-assembling, composting, returning to the soil and then providing nourishment for new growth. It’s a cycle of death and re-birth with everything having value and no waste.
Sometimes there are major disturbances. Storms blow through, animals tear things apart, fires burn. Nature doesn’t panic when these things happen. Why? Because nature is connected to the divine plan. There is no judgment, just acceptance and appropriate response which is often just allowing.
Humans have lost some of their connection to the Divine Plan but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. You have access to it, dear ones! But it helps to be quiet, alert and looking for it rather than being stuck in confusion and thinking things are in a mindless mess.
The old is dying, the new is being born. Look around and you will see signs of both everywhere. Each of you has an important and vital role to play. Listen to the wisdom of your heart and it will guide you each step of the way through. Ask for help from the Unseen Realm and you will be delighted by the abundance that will be provided to you. Through it all, you are loved beyond measure, love everywhere, love overflowing.
I love you, precious ones. I am Gaia, your Earth Mother, your friend
Thank you Mary,
I e been struggling with observing the outrageous without being enraged. I went to the rally for keeping the Johnson County minimum wage and supporting workers rights yesterday. It was well done. Then I spent time with a dear friend who seems to be in despair. I want to tell people to remain calm. Take action to support what is good. Embrace joy and float above the fray. It is challenging and I believe the only way is to alliance with Source and Earth and be still before taking any action.
Karen, I share your struggle!! It is so difficult and challenging to stay engaged without going into anger or despair. It’s tempting to disengage and we are needed right now, in a variety of ways. All of our training as healers is helping so much and we can then help others to be grounded and connected to each other and Source. Thank you for the light you shine and hold!!
