My Sweet Shaman Dog:  A True Shaman

My Sweet Shaman Dog: A True Shaman

A Very Happy New Year to all of you…from my Shaman and Me!

Here is a beautiful update from my friend Leslie Lightfall, who does truly awesome work with the earth.  Her original music and videos are unique and breathtaking.  I hope you enjoy!  Love, Stephanie

I promise more of my own posts very soon!

Greetings from Christchurch, New Zealand!

I am very pleased to be able to share with you the new Earth Shift Meditation video series that I’ve just uploaded to YouTube.  Feedback so far, suggests that these videos transduce catalytic vibrational frequencies that can help us all to connect our hearts more deeply to the Earth and spiritual energies, so I invite you view them in quiet surroundings, at a time when you can enter easily into a deeper, meditative space.

They tell the story of what I’ve been learning from the Earth experientially this past 9 months while living in my van on the South Island of New Zealand.   The videos are quite short. It only takes about a half an hour to view the whole series of 6.  Last year’s Earth’s Gifts video series , is now available on YouTube as well.

These are magical times for owning and expressing our creative abilities and claiming our power in all areas of our lives.  What an extraordinary opportunity we now have to join with Gaia to help co-create the New Earth!  With that in mind I have set up a blog site, EarthSong Network Share, and I would so love to have each one of you visit the site and share at least one of the magical moments you, yourself have had communing with the Earth.

I’ve been very blessed the past couple of years to have been able to spend lots of time in very pristine locations here in New Zealand, doing my EarthSong earth energy work and creating these videos.   I am tremendously grateful to all of the many physical and non-physical beings, energies and entities that have contributed to the creation of this series, so generously supporting my work in a multitude of ways.  This has truly been a multi-dimensional project!

I hope you’ll take time to enjoy the results and pass these links on to your friends.

May 2013 be outrageously wonderful, magical, delightful and heart-felt for each one of you!

Namaste,

Leslie

PS  All five of my CD albums at CDBaby.com will be available in hard copies until Jan. 20, 2013.  After that they will still be available but only as digital downloads.  The instrumental music used in the Earth Shift Meditation video series is from the album “Deep Spring“, and “Energy Is Moving” is from the “Twilight Magic” CD.  The DVDs are no longer available at Filmbaby, but should be available as digital downloads from MoPIX sometime soon.

PPS  I’m deeply grateful for the incredible help and support of all kinds that has continually come my way enabling me to do this work and share it freely with so many people.

I’m currently raising money to finance a trip to Chile and Peru in March, 2013 to do EarthSong energy work with the volcanoes there.  If you would like to be part of that adventure by donating $8, $88 or $888 to the cause you can email me or simply use the PayPal button at the bottom of the EarthSong Network News Blog.

Thank you for your generous support!

EarthSong Solstice Connection

Gaian Beauty...newly created each evening...Can you hear the song of this sunset?

 (Leslie’s work with sound is amazing.  It is some of the best and deepest work with sound I have experienced.  Check out her DVDs.  Her “Earthsongs” are simply incredible…she has found the song of each place she is filming.  You can feel it.  I hope others will intentionally connect to the work she is doing this solstice.  Being in deep communion with the earth, with Gaia, is essential for us and for Gaia.  Perhaps it is the most healing work we can do, for ourselves, humanity, and this glorious earth we are so blessed to live within.)  Stephanie

EarthSong Network Newsletter

New Moon – December 2010
 Kia Ora!  Greetings from Dunedin, New Zealand!
 
Networking for the Solstice
I invite you all to link up with us here in Dunedin, New Zealand to celebrate the coming Solstice. Linking up with others who are celebrating and honoring the Earth is a also a powerful practice, because the loving energy we send back and forth between us humans helps form ley lines within the Earth.  Our communion with each other while connecting to the Earth and spiritual energies helps to rebuild and strengthen the Earth’s energetic gridwork.
The three days around each of the Solstices and Equinoxes are the times when the Earth is most able to receive human energy.  This year’s Solstice, Dec. 20 to 22is going to be a particularly powerful opportunity for honoring and gifting energy to the Earth and aligning with her cycles and seasons because there will also be a Full Moon and Full Lunar Eclipse during that time.
Vision
I want to share the vision I have been given for our Solstice Gathering, “Heart Visions & Soul Songs”  for Dec. 20, 21, & 22, 2010 here in Dunedin.  This gathering is definitely a heart vision for me.  My heart literally throbs when I feel into this gathering and the seed possibilities it contains for each individual participating, for the group, for the Dunedin area, for the connective network of sound circle groups and individuals that link up with us, and for the planet.  
I am being shown a gathering of 6 women, myself and 5 wonderful women I have connected with spiritually and at a deep heart level over a period of several years who will be coming from both the north and south islands:  Pania Lawsen, Heather Burch, Livia Tsai, Jaqueline Joy and Tracey Crampton-Smith.
The time we women spend together will be a spiritual retreat that is part workshop, and part ceremonial practices of using sound, song, and movement, sound sculptures and silence to gift energy to the Earth.  With the intent that she take and use our energy wherever and whenever it is most needed, we will be using times of sounding and times of silence and deep listening to align ourselves with her cycles and rhythms, and current process of rapid evolution. 
We will be visiting at least 6 different sacred spots that lie on the rim of the ancient volcano that surrounds the Dunedin Harbor, beginning with a cleansing ceremony, walking up the creek to Nicols Falls. (It is extremely important to take time to release the density and busyness of everyday life and deepen one’s connection to the Earth, before commencing with Earth energy work and communion.)  
During the 3 days we’ll be circling around the rim, interacting with Earth energies at each of the sacred spots, ending with a gifting ceremony, releasing our energy to the planet and to our sound circle network from a nearby mountain top.  
We will be overtone chanting in caves, creating a Sound Sculpture on the beach, playing in the mud, and dancing with the ocean waves during our three days.   I will once again be teaching the EarthSong practices that I have developed over the past 15 years but what I am most excited about this time is that we will be experiencing it all in the context of Nature.  Sharing our energy in the wild places, taking time to honor Mama Earth and listen for the her Song.
When I asked about how we women could hold sacred space and move around from location to location and take care of practicalities of nurturing our bodies while spending much of our time in altered states, I was shown a diagram of six dots forming a hexagon, surrounded by four dots forming a square.  The four dots represent four men who would be serving to create and hold a safe, nurturing space around us, freeing us to go deeply into the energetic work.  
Working as a team, the four men would help provide our transportation, meals and delivery of meals, and act as guardians both in a practical sense and an energetic sense for the 3 days we are engaged in the process.  
I have been calling people I am connected with at a deep heart level on the phone, so that our group here in Dunedin will be linking up energetically with individuals and groups all over the world.  I invite you to do the same with people and groups you are each connected with – that is, sharing this vision with them of what we (or with what you) will be doing and inviting them to link up in to you (and us) in whatever way fits for them.  
 
(For those of you who have asked, our opening ceremony at Nicols Falls will take place around 10:30 am on Dec. 20 which translates to Dec. 19, 1:30 pm PST.  We will close on Dec. 22 up on the mountain around 3 pm > which would be Dec. 21, 7 pm PST.)
 
Powerful energies are building for this Solstice and I invite you all to take time out to nurture both yourself and the Earth by listening for her song, singing your own song to gift and honor her, and connecting with all those who have deeply touched your heart through the years.
