Prophecies

This afternoon as I sat in a teepee close to the fire, I could feel my cheeks heating up from the flames. As I listened to the prophecies being shared with me I understood that the future is deeply rooted in the past. Many of the ways of our traditional Elders are based on living a life free of chemical additives and substances that are destructive to our very being and environment.

The advice being put forward to us is to make decisions not from a place of fear but a place of well-being. We were being asked to breathe in a sense of calmness and really think about the information being presented to us. If we don’t like it, then maybe it is not meant for us. If it applies to us and is useable then we have benefitted from their messages and wisdom.

There are many ways to know if a certain path is right for us. We can dream it, someone could encourage us to develop our strengths or we could just know. Much of what this week had to offer is a place to be quiet in our noisy world and just listen and reflect.

We were told many times this week to listen to our heart and believe in its truth.
