I did the Morning Offering and then got myself ready for the day. The 102 quote today comes from Chapter Seven and the concept of water:

Water

“Water is that aspect or element of the creation which contains the sacred energies of the Archangel Gabriel. Water holds gifts and powers that move from the simplest physical observations to the most abstruse and occult applications of spiritual principles. But the central gift of water is its acceptance of the impressions of consciousness. Water can be magnetized to hold pure emotion. Consequently, water is a very magical element, a crystal that can be solid, liquid or gaseous, and yet is a crystal in terms of the way that it can hold ideas, thoughts and emotions.

[. . .]

The intimacy of thought and water is very appropriate to consider as you look at your physical body. Your thoughts are impressing every cell of your body. You are a very watery being. A large percentage of your body is water. You are, therefore, a creature of the tides of your inner emotions. Be aware of how easy it is to magnetize water with an idea or a thought or, most importantly, an emotion. Tend your everyday self to thoughts of thankfulness, thanksgiving, praise, appreciation and joy. Remember how powerful you really are and impress your own body with the fire of your love. Let that love do its healing and organizing work within your physical body.” Q’uo, April 2, 2006

Q’uo described water as a “sacred energy” (along with fire, air, and earth) and then eloquently provided a magical description of the nature of water which can be seen as a crystal whether it is solid, liquid, or gas. Just as a crystal in jewel form can be charged to hold a certain vibration or desire, so can water be charged or “be magnetized to hold pure emotions.” An example of this is what Ra had to say about the water in the chalice that Don and I would charge with our love so that Carla could drink it after the session was over and be revitalized as Ra mentioned in 1.13:

The charging of the water is done by those present placing their hands over the glass and visualizing the power of love entering the water. This will charge that very effective medium with those vibrations.

In the last paragraph of Q’uo’s quote they applied the nature of water to our human bodies which are at least sixty percent water. Our thoughts and emotions impress every cell of our body with their nature, whether they be of difficult and disharmonious vibrations or purely positive vibrations. Q’uo strongly recommended that whenever possible we use the feelings of praise, thanksgiving, joy, and especially our love, to imbue the water within our physical body with these life-giving and healing emotions. The power of our love can imbue water with its creative and healing power. Ra went even further when they said:

Your own nature is water in that you as mind/body/spirit complexes are easily impressed and moved. Indeed, this is the very fiber and nature of your journey and vigil in this density: to not only be moved but to instruct yourself as to the preferred manner of your movement in mind, body, and spirit.” 88.23

In this statement Ra suggested that there is a special quality of water that allows us to determine how we wish to live our lives. This is possible because our “nature is water”. This suggests that at the very depths of our soul we are fluid, liquid, malleable, and able to create changes in our consciousness at will.

With all of these magical qualities of water in mind, I would think that the waters upon the deeps of our oceans, lakes, and rivers could also carry emotions of the mass consciousness of humanity within them as surely as the soil of Earth also absorbs these same emotions. The health of the population of the planet could well be reflected in the water that flows, like blood through our veins, around the circulatory system of Mother Earth and further reflects the health or disease of humanity. Just as each of us can help to heal disease and sustain health by the “fire of our love” projected into our bodies, so can humanity project its distress into Mother Earth’s bodies of water thereby increasing the reflection of anger and separation that has become the primary metaphysical manifestation of humanity for thousands of years. In turn, each of us can also imbue any body of water on Earth with our joy, praise, thanksgiving, and especially with our love as a kind of spiritual remedy for the ills of our planet. In this quote Q’uo shares analogy of these thoughts:

The way that energy moves through water is pertinent here, for as water is pushed by a force from behind, it expresses itself in a way which is not from here to there. For water simply pushes on its force to the next drop of water to the next so that something that occurred off the coast of Japan can eventually express itself upon the shores of your beach of California. The same energy, the same reason, is infinitely expressed across the ever interconnected drops of water. Study the way that water works to see a little bit more into how entities come together in their patterns and how they may express in ways that do not show but yet have their effect on a distant shore. Many times there is the hope of seeing a result and there is a demand put on service that it be quantifiable. This is an easily understood desire, to be able to measure the service that one is, that one can offer. And yet it is not always at all obvious how the service is going to express. For it may express not simply within a small pond of being, not in the immediate ripples but rather at a distant shore when that wave that you began washes up and expresses itself finally in just such and such a way. Q’uo, April 7, 2002.

And in this quote Q’uo gives us another way of using the metaphysical power of water in pursuing our own spiritual journeys:

We speak of unity using water as a symbol, not only because your singing offered this image for our use in a tuned manner, but also because water is indeed a very appropriate symbol for the path that each of you, as drops of water, may understand himself to be taking as you seek the infinite sea of the creation. A drop of water may seem to be quite powerless and you as an individual may feel lacking or limited in some way in some situation. But, my friends, water is continuous and is not separated from itself. It may fall in drops in service to the fruits of the earth, but as it gathers and moves towards the great oceans, does it not carve out mighty channels from sheer luck that men could not hew so well with all their might? Water is quiet, and yet when stirred can be the most mighty of avengers, changing physical landscapes in minutes.

In your meditations, then, my friends, take each limitation and lack that you may feel that you have experienced, each disappointment that you feel in yourself or in others and offer them up as drops of water, to see them dissolve in a pure, clear ocean of the infinite Creator. Then, my friends, let the rainbow of sunlight through this water fill your heart and send you forth to serve the Creator, each in your own way and yet each a part of the great ocean of being. You are serving yourself, for all that you meet and all that you seek is yourself. If you love the ocean of the Creator then, my friends, you will learn to love each drop of water, each apparently individualized portion of that ocean, yourself and all others, all circumstances and all times. Q’uo, October 25, 1981.

This is the way that the Player on the Enhanced Gameboard of Life sees the world around it and the world within it.

Yesterday and overnight we got an inch of much-needed rain, so this morning I went outside and sprayed my Giant Hibiscus with the fungicidal spray that needs to be done every seven days or after any rain.

This afternoon I went back outside and used my chainsaw to cut up the dead stalks of a portion of one of my Burning Bushes in the area to the left of the fish pond. I also trimmed a Honeysuckle bush out of the forsythia in the back yard.

From A Book of Days, channeled by Carla L. Rueckert:

June 12

The Abiding Peace

I am the spirit of the principle of the consciousness of Christ and I greet you in that love.

I move to comfort you at this time by suggesting that you meditate upon the perfection of the abiding peace which lies beneath your actions, for there is great comfort available to you, as the in-breath which contains your spiritual food. Each time that you breathe in it is possible for you to become the living quality of Christ, for as breath is light to your bodies, so the same breath contains food for your spirit, a manna which your souls desire.

Breathe deeply, my children, of the love within each moment, and when you breathe out let your emanations express all of the best that you have to give.

And if you stumble, continue to breathe, for every breath is an opportunity to focus on love and to fill your life with that love.

Peace be with you, now and always.

I said the prayer at the Gaia Meditation tonight:

We come in the name of love and open our hearts, minds, and souls to send love, light, and healing energy to Mother Earth as she brings forth a new Earth in the fourth density. We ask that the infinite love, light and healing energy of the One Infinite Creator heal the hearts of all souls in pain on Earth tonight. May all souls on Earth feel our love, light, and healing energy in their hearts, their minds, and their souls. Amen.
