Signposts and Reminders in Japan

Even though I did not have the time to write a blog on my website yesterday, my thoughts were very much with Japan, and beyond.

By way of compensation I put up a tweet on Twitter making reference to the power of nature being demonstrated once again, this time in Japan, and how we can help. Some people responded with understanding, while one tweeter sent an unprintable but graphic reply rejecting totally the idea that Gaia is, ultimately, in charge of world events and outcomes.

I found his (for it was a man!) defensive and immediate reaction very interesting as an example of what was, for me, denial and non-acceptance of what is fact. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, and it may be he was feeling powerless, shocked and angry, but I wondered what more it would take to enable him to recognise that whatever protective measure we take, we cannot prevent the planet demonstrating her strength through earth-changing activity at the time of her choosing. This is a time of great natural events, and we have seen significant examples of floods, fire and earthquakes in just a few months already, and there will be more to come.

While many people recognise that nature is stronger than man, most do not see that these eruptions have deeper implications: that they are Gaia’s reaction to centuries of abuse; that they bring reminders and opportunities; that every person affected is so intentionally; and that the earth movements are a prelude to her, and our, ascension. It would be such a pity if, through what we are witnessing, we began to fear nature rather than embracing her for the gifts she brings now and to come.
