The Embodiment of Harmony
This morning, I woke up feeling the pull of Gaia and harmony with the land, and that we are a part of it. That in order to be in deep gratitude and harmony with her, we must be in harmony with ourselves.
Speaking of the land, Mt. Hood and Mt. Adams are impossible for me not to feel here as well. They have extended an invitation to communicate with them more deeply.
As I sit and write this, I am 34 miles from the base of Mt. Hood (Garsta) and 31 miles from Mt. Adams (Pahto).
Yesterday morning, I was invited to connect to the mycelium in direct lines to the two mountains. And I began to weave energy with them to build this harmony within us all.
Yes, you heard right. I am channeling with mountains.
You might ask how, why, and there is a story behind all of this that I will share more about. But back to yesterday. I was intentionally learning more about their history directly from them and began to feel resonance in my own experiences. And a breakthrough began.
Over the weekend, I had begun clearing my spleen and sinuses and exploring how both are energetically related to grief and overthinking, contributing to feelings of separation and loneliness. At a pivotal moment, an Anna's hummingbird appeared among the dahlias outside my bedroom window. She looked at me as I said hello and continued buzzing around the flowers. I was surprised to learn that Anna's hummingbirds don't necessarily migrate for the winter. They stay through the flowers passing and the world growing cold. They represent joy and knowing where to find nectar, nourishment, and resilience.
And it all made sense. Nature is reflecting this in myself. It's why I like milder climates. The green is important to me, one of the reasons I landed near the Douglas fir forests here in Hood River. It is in harmony with my soul. Nourishment made me think, how do I deepen my relationships and find greater harmony in witnessing more about the land and beings around me?
And at that moment, in walked Cleo to sit in her new spot on the windowsill.
It's important to share that I spend a significant amount of time managing my doodle Tucker's enormous energy and helping him learn to communicate intentionally rather than barking at full volume every time a cat walks past the window or someone comes to pick apples in the orchard outside. I see myself as a child in him, and it's quite humbling. He's learning that we're safe and that it's time to experience shared spaces and community differently. It requires a lot of attention because we have some pretty big contracts.
But to give her time to shine, back to Cleo.
She's been regaining her weight and health after everything we've been through these past six months. The stress of our last home, moving around to find one that was more aligned, and all the time spent in the car were incredibly hard on her. Especially the car. And today, when I greeted her outside in the garden, she seemed irritated. And then I heard her clearly say, "I have big things to do, and I hear you talking about me."
And I stopped in my tracks. Wow, this was new. I don't usually channel my animals. Everything is becoming a bit louder. Patterns, energy, clients' blocks, and what's holding them back. I am being called to support the restoration of harmony.
So as I deepen my connection with my own body and recognize how safe and supported I am, my ability to support expands. Last week, my study of Gene Key 57 revealed details about my clairaudience being a specific superpower in my chart. I can see my little family beginning to settle into that safety, too. And now I'm opening myself to something beyond just intuitively caring for them. I'm exploring what it means to communicate with them, allowing our relationships to become more of a two-way street.
Cleo asked me to give her space, but she also invited me, in a sassy tone, to deepen our connection. She's been showing me this through the way she wakes me for breakfast in our new space. She no longer walks all over me, verbally meowing until I wake up. Instead, she sleeps next to me until I wake up to use the restroom or turn over. Then we leap out of bed together to figure out whether it's fish or poultry, something I've made for her, or wet food.
When I found Cleo, she quite literally ran into our lives just before my birthday in 2022, in Costa Rica, at 2 a.m., shortly after seeing something like this…
It hit me that when I had come to Costa Rica, my 19-year-old Ginger Diva, Mac, had opted out, and I felt him cross the rainbow bridge a month and a half later. For the first time in years, I didn't have a cat. And literally five minutes later, Tucker needed to go outside. As he crossed the threshold, a black-and-white blur ran in.
I had no idea she had arrived to win over my heart. My sassy tuxedo cat I had been dreaming of. She had been abandoned, and the woman who often watched Tucker lived in the apartment building where Cleo had been roaming. She was on her own, but it was time for her to find connection. So slowly, over the last four years, we have invited her into our house and our family.
And as I recount this, I am reminded of the epic family I was just invited into here in the orchard community, but also of being part of a family of mountains. Cue Chance Peña's song, The Mountain Is You.
When we first arrived in The Dalles in mid-September, we were staying at the Super 8. A new friend I had met through TikTok channeled a message for me from Garsta, the name Mt. Hood told me to call her, inviting me to lock in our connection and begin communicating more intentionally.
Today, Cleo echoed something similar about being seen, admired from afar, and treated as a novelty. She knows I love her deeply, but she reminded me that she is more than a domestic cat. And I think it's important to share that I believe this is Cleo's second time with me in this lifetime. I've wondered whether some of us call our beloved companions back again, a second round for them within the same lifetime for us.
Before we headed north, I connected with Anna, an animal communicator and energy worker. I had originally reached out to support Tucker with the trauma of being attacked twice while we were living in Costa Rica. During that session, Anna also affirmed what I had sensed about Cleo. Tucker, meanwhile, seemed astonished that humans could actually communicate with him. I think he initially assumed we were simply connecting with one of my clients as he settled onto my bed that day.
All of these experiences have me contemplating the energy arriving this week.
As we move through Gene Key 50, from Corruption to Equilibrium to Harmony, I find myself recognizing how much of this journey has been about restoring relationships. My relationship with my body. My relationship with the land. My relationship with Tucker and Cleo. My relationship with community. And my relationship with the intuitive gifts I've spent years learning to understand and trust.
Harmony isn't necessarily about everything being peaceful or perfect. It's about recognizing where we've become disconnected and being willing to restore the relationships that bring us back into alignment. Sometimes that means listening differently. Sometimes it means recognizing that the beings around us have their own needs, their own ways of communicating, and their own place in the world. And sometimes it means recognizing that we, too, are part of something much larger than ourselves.
As I continue deepening my relationship with Garsta, Pahto, the orchard, and the beings who share this space with me, I am discovering what it means to live in harmony rather than simply seek it. And perhaps that's what nature has been inviting me to remember all along. We don't have to separate ourselves from the world around us to discover who we are. We can learn to recognize ourselves as part of it.
Breakthroughs and aha moments are just the beginning. Embodying what we discover is where real transformation happens.
