Earth and Animal Healing in Relation to Humans
By Tracy L. Bradley, RN, CHHC

The earth is a living breathing being. Much to the contrary of what many people are saying, she does not need our help. She is amazing, powerful and benevolent beyond our comprehension. She is a force to be reckoned with. However, that being said, she loves when we work with her & her forces by healing ourselves. When we “heal ourselves,” we essentially “heal the earth.” When we try to “save the earth”, but don’t heal inwardly, we are essentially crying out to have someone else “save us.” When we displace the healing- projecting it onto the whales, the eagles, the forests- we are not doing a service- because it is just a projection & not the source of the pain… so “saving the whales” becomes futile because it was never the whales that needed the saving in the first place- they just are symbolic for healing our old wounds from our past.

The earth is filled with so many resources that love to help humans find their way to inward healing. They always have what we seek if we are willing to see it. The tree spirits, rock spirits, water sprites, air sprites, nature spirits and everything in between truly always reflect to us what we seek within ourselves. If you seek a “great wise old tree” and find it- you will find that you were truly seeking the great wisdom in yourself… because that is the part of you that is going to find that tree. This is always true!

As for the animals, their energy reflects that of ours. There are messages being given when you see an animal. The setting, timing, and circumstances are all significant. How enchanting! If you see a raccoon in the middle of the day- it does not automatically mean that the raccoon has rabies or is ill… it means there is a message. If you automatically assume that seeing an animal at the “wrong time of day” indicates rabies- then that is also a message for you. Why do you believe that animals have to follow strict rules on bed times? Humans don’t & that doesn’t mean that we’re rabid. Listen to the messages.

It’s time to wake up to the Living Magic of this amazing Earth! It is an amazing, enchanting & elegant thing to be Living on this earth if you’ll open your heart up to the reality of the possibilities here! Live Magically, Live Abundantly & Live Awake to the responsiveness of the Universe- it is your Birthright to create your life according to your will and desire!

A teacher of mine once told me, you (being general) ALWAYS get what you want. ALWAYS! If you don’t get what you want, it’s because you didn’t really want it & you wanted what “not having it” would give you instead.

We all have hidden limiters, blockages & beliefs that keep us from allowing ourselves to truly live the life we desire. We can all release these limiters & create an elegant life according to our will & desire. We don’t have to allow fate to determine our lives. I dream of a world in which we all open our hearts up to the magic of living consciously, magically & deliberately! How enchanting!
