Power of the Elements

Since I was a child I have used the power of nature and the elements to help me process emotion. Anytime I felt scared, worried, angry, or disappointed I turned to nature. I always carried a rock and still do, they are my greatest supporters and protectors. I would look to Earth’s texture, water’s movement, fire's warmth and air’s transparency to process. I was never much of a verbal processor. Honestly, I held my emotions in and only shared them with nature. I never questioned it, it was what felt right to me. As I have aged and my mind has developed more I have grown curious about this tendency. I still continue working with nature to help dissolve, transmute and transform negative energy. I still work with nature to help manifest and bring my deepest needs, hopes, wants and dreams to fruition. I have found that the truth is so simple, yet so deep. WE ARE NATURE. We are made up of the same components. Earth is our bones, water is our blood, fire is our energy and air is our breath. It is all the same. I called upon nature so deeply because even at a young age I knew, I knew I was connected. It wasn’t something that needed to be learned, but sadly, so often it is something that is forgotten. May we come back to the truth, to the knowing, to the connection that WE ARE NATURE. And may we begin to live in deeper reciprocity, gratitude and respect for our mother and our home.
