I’m sitting here in New England during another winter storm. . . We’ve had pretty much weekly snowfalls that accumulate and then melt in a week or so only to come back again. I’ve been a little antsy to get started clearing out the beds and starting the seeds, but snow has said, “no!” at least not yet. I’ll be going over to the greenhouse next week to get some seeds started and I do have tulsi seeds for sale. . . but as I’ve been learning with the tulsi, there is no rush because it really likes the external temperature to be consistently 65 degrees or above.
This garden has become very dear to me on so many different levels. It’s been guiding me for the past four years, showing me what to put where and teaching me about intention . . . putting my thoughts and wishes for a peaceful world forward in to the ethers. . . it is a gathering place and so much more. When the vision came through I had been thinking a lot about toroids. A toroid or torus is a scrolling energy field that surrounds objects that have a magnetic field, like the earth or the human heart. The name of the Hebrew Holy book, The Torah is derived from the two ends of the scroll which come together when rolled up. Jeff A. Benner states The word Torah comes from the Hebrew root word תורה(Y.R.H, Strong’s #8451), a verb which means “to flow or throw something”.
These images demonstrate the magnetic field produced by the earth and our hearts. As I thought more about the circular garden, I realized that it too has a toroidal field that can magnify thoughts and intentions. So I personally believe in the power of prayer, meditation and intention and that there is actually a science to the physics of the energy of our thought forms.
When I was thinking about the garden in the early days it was very clear that it was a place to gather people for meditation, music and healing and that somehow by creating this positivity in the world that it will have ripples on energetic wavelengths that we do not see with our physical eyes.
When I walk around in the garden there is a way to activate these principles and I’m happy to teach them. I will be holding meditations & potlucks again this year in the garden as well as circles for women to clear vocal blockages or stuck energy that may be inhibiting speaking one’s truth. We will also have a concert or two and I am happy to teach one day workshops about working with the garden and plants upon request.
Here is a link to a video from the heart math institute that describes the way the electromagnetic field of our hearts interact with the world.
