Journey 49 - Be True to Yourself

5/4: A Journey in response to an inspiration I received in watching an Osprey dive into a pond after a meal. I’d been meditating earlier in the day on the concept that all things that exist were first thoughts in the mind of the Great Spirit, and that all things must therefore be totally true to themselves to fully honor the forming thought of Life’s Provider. Only humans fail in this. I felt I was being asked to seek out a message from the Spirit Camp in the same way the Osprey sought its prey. So after smudging and lighting the Sacred Candle, I took off, self-drumming. I was out in the back yard, and the entire world took on a violet and yellow hue. Owl arrived in three colors: Red, Green and Blue. Most of the Chakra colors were therefore present..only Orange and Purple (Sacral and Third-Eye) were absent. We sat in the Red Maple, huddling close together, as the leaves around us grew in very rapid fashion to full length. A sign that my healing will be finished by the time full bloom arrives? There then appeared a large pink dot in the Sky. We flew up into this Dot and took the Tunnel to the Upper World. At first, the Tunnel was wide, and I could see scenes of Native Life passing by me in the pink walls. Then the Tunnel narrowed and it felt as if we were traveling through an artery of the body (past life, present life). We emerged into a dark region with small brown balls suspended above us as far as one could see. We landed on the steel framework of a skyscraper, but I was not afraid of our great height. Looking inward, I saw a deep purple floor made only of light, with Eagle sitting toward the opposite corner. Eagle told me that indeed I must be true to myself, to my true calling (which is, of course, Shaman). Eagle then escorted me into a garden beyond this room where a bowl on a pedestal awaited. Eagle told me to prick the ends of my fingers each with the sharp quill end of one of his Feathers. I did so, and a small ball of blood formed on each. He then took me to the Bowl, within which was a deep purple fluid. He told me this was liquid Spirit, and I was to place my fingers within it. I did, and within seconds my fingertips were healed. Eagle told me, remember this and do it often. This was a new ritual for me to cleanse myself of all types of wounds, no doubt centered mainly in my Sacral Chakra, for which the color was missing at the start. Then, Senses All arrived and began building the pathway from my Third Eye Chakra to my Visual Cortex with her hands, to help generate this ability to see energy directly (recall this the other color missing at the start). I could feel intense energies in the front of my head as she did this. Being very tired, I was zoning out as she did this. So, I then thanked all my Guides, and returned to the room to ground myself.
