Turtle Medicine transports us between dimensions, from waking to dreamtime awareness and back. It helps us to slow down our thoughts and the very frequency that keeps the earth drama in play. As you close your eyes and visualize Turtle Medicine, it is so easy to see the form of Turtle as the Earth Mother, swimming effortlessly through the vastness of space. Touch and feel the hard shell beneath your feet. Listen and feel on the inside as breath slows down and thoughts fall away. Your connection with the Earth can be felt as an ancient memory, a distant playing of song that can be heard in the farthest periphery of awareness. You ride upon the back of Turtle Medicine, through skies and ocean…through all dimensions!

As your breath slows down, gently and in the most natural way, you feel yourself expanding through all realms, until you know your Self as part of all things, including the dance of littleness and limitation that is so much a part of the earth drama. And yet, as you breathe with the breath of Turtle Medicine, and allow its song to wash over you like the warm rays of the Sun, you also know that the dream of littleness is for a short while, and that the Earth Mother is calling you to release the tight hold you have upon the nightmare.Listen and feel! The breath relaxes and as you watch inhalation meeting exhalation, and exhalation meeting inhalation, the awareness deepens of itself as mind and body slow down, as the frequency of little self melts into the resonance of the Earth Mother. Upon the back of Turtle Medicine you ride, floating so easily, so quietly. Can you feel the hard shell, smooth and worn. When you touch the shell of Turtle you are connecting with the ancient memories of the Great Mystery!

Look into the shell that is beneath your feet. Something is reflecting back from the farthest galaxies of memory. Observe and receive…listen and feel. Turtle Medicine calls you to ride upon its back, to travel through places of light and shadow, pain and joy, enjoying the great dance of creation that unfolds within the openness of your heart! Enjoy and receive!

Virgo Full Moon, March 8, 2012

Disciple: One who is pledged to serve humanity, who is beginning to comprehend group work; who realizes the Life force of nature; who is transferring her/his consciousness out of the personal into the impersonal; who realizes her/his responsibility to everyone and everything that comes under her/his influence and to the Whole.

A full Moon seeks to unit opposite, yet complementary energies. The full Moon takes in the golden light of the Sun, transforms it and sends it back out into our night as glowing silvery light. This alchemical transformation of Light washes us an awareness of the possibilities of change, for the Light is the same, and yet different. Each month, the full Moon takes the essence of the solar Light and brings us a new piece of Wisdom, a new insight into Life, a new awareness of Self, for the Moon's magic is the source of transformation and growth here on Earth.

The 2012 Virgo full Moon occurs on Thursday, March 8 at 1:41 am PST, 4:41 am EST, 9:41 am GMT.

TO OLD COUNTRY FOLK TALES

If you learn from, and enjoy them; then I call you brother or sister.

Otherwise, if you apply "scienc-i-tific method to life" yet allow corrupted fools knowingly to rule you, may I suggest your formula is a hoax !!!
