The ancestors offer you structural support.
They are long gone, but their bones remain energetically; offering foundational connection to this land and its frequency. There is beauty still remaining in their frequency. Connection with your ancestors is always possible through the land that they lived upon, were birthed upon and died upon.
Their teachings hold a structure that can contain you with clear identity; as to where you come from in terms of your humanity – in its pure sense. When people are birthed upon a land, and live upon that land and die upon that land, they have an integral structural understanding innately within their very bodies of what it is to be of the land. How they relate to the land; how the land teaches and supports and nourishes them and holds them. The land is a container for the entirety of their life experience. And their life experience is continually shown and reflected back to them in constant symbolic communication.
One is of the land and speaks the language of the land that they were born upon and walked upon and gave their bones to – in gratitude. There is no song to be sung other than that soul song that comes from deep within the heart of you. That knows the connection with this place. The ancestors can sing through you and speak through you; when you are deeply rooted in place.
There is Grace and beauty in all things of nature, and we are of nature. But we are in full alignment when connected with the land that we are birthed upon. It is easier to be grounded. It is easier to understand the language of the land, of nature – what it is speaking to us and through us.
See this as a symbol of ancestral passing, and the continuation of the ancestral voice. Through this land, through nature and through you.
Greet the soil as your own, as family, as teacher, as lover, as friend. Embrace the wisdom of your ancestral lineage. Listen to its voice, through quiet, still observation of place.
We are one always – in always.
Thank you.
