Found the note!

    Digging around in my notebooks and scrap papers, I finally found the note I had scribbled down when I received an answer to my question of "Why is the lioness roaring?"
    It is Her call.... a Summoning. 
    In a pride of lions, it is the females that hunt. They cooperate with each other so they can hunt together to feed the Family. They trust and rely on each other for survival. While the male guards and protects the whole pride, it is the females in particular that protect the young. Individually and as a group that is what they know to do. Keep the young safe and provide for them.
    The Roar of the Lioness is a Summoning, a clarion call from the Divine Feminine, to take action now... to PROTECT ALL!   Protect the young. Protect the Earth, the Water, the Air and Everything which lives on, below, above and within this Creation.
    The Roar of the Lioness resonates through this physical being named Mother Earth. Surrounding her, encompassing her, permeating her until that deep rumbling cosmic voice raises the vibrational rate of the planet to the point where evil can exist no more. 

The CALL. Do you hear it?

Yes. Same photo, different post. You have an observant eye! 

   After listening to Uplift's conversation with Grandmother Flordemayo the other evening, some things have coalesced in my tired mind. And I feel a desire to share. Grandmother was discussing I'x.... and when she related this Spirit of Feminine energy to the big cats, I immediately switched into "high attention" mode. And I'd like to share WHY..... it has to do with a couple of visions that I've had in the last few months.
    Guess I'll have to go back a little further than that to start. Bear with me, I can be long-winded at times!  chuckle   Lets go back to 2005. It was either three or six months after Pope John Paul II had passed from the physical that I had a dream. No, not a regular type dream. I have those too and then I have a very "special" kind. Anyway, I was in a woodland and Pope JPII comes walking up to me and we sit and talk for quite a while. And no, I don't remember what he said! He really is such an amazing Soul! At the end of our visit he tells me that there is a lady that wants to talk with me. He didn't say what about or anything, he just made it clear that agreeing to this had some serious implications. I asked if he thought it was a good idea? His reply was a very definite "Oh yes!". So, of course, I said yes. He told me to wait there for her. As I sat there in the woods, things began to change around me... a "veil" of some sort formed a circle around the area. I could see the animals gathering in great numbers outside of this circle, but they appeared as if clouded in a fine mist. It glowed ever so softly. 
    Then the Lady in question arrived.        All I can say is that I have never felt SO LOVED and so SAFE. Never. I mean, I have memories of being an infant and knowing how much my parents loved me as they held me in their arms...... but this was so much more. She motioned for me to sit down next to her and she held my hands and talked to me for what seemed like hours! And no, I don't remember what she said! I know she was reassuring me that life would be just fine. That things would get done in the proper time... so don't fret over that! She encouraged me to do the angel drawings.... but not to pressure myself. She let me know that things were going to be ok. And I was so grateful for that! I woke up the next morning feeling like my Life was perfect in every way and that I needn't worry..... about anything. SO LOVED! SO PROTECTED!    When things get rough, I revisit the memory of that meeting. It has pulled me through a lot!
    When I told my friend about the dream, she was thrilled! She had to explain to me who the lady was.  hahaha   I never even thought of Mother Mary! I was too wrapped up in Her energy to care about who She was!  After that night, I did a rough sketch using a photo of Pope JPII that I had saved from the newspaper. In it, his robes are practically flying in the wind and his head is down as he grasps a staff. It really is an awesome shot! In my sketch the garment flows upward and becomes the garment of Mother Mary... her right hand raised in blessing, her left hand is touching the head of this huge male lion in back of the late Pope's figure.   I then tucked it away in a notebook and forgot about it....... until about three months ago.
    Upon rediscovering the sketch, I laid it down and asked Spirit if the concept was complete? It was then that the scars appeared on the lion's face. He had seen many battles! While I was looking and studying the placement of those scars I realized that there was the face of a lioness peering out from behind Mother Mary's left upper arm. She turned her head to the side so she was in perfect profile. And then she ROARED! The sound shook my mobile home! I was absolutely speechless!
     The next week as I was driving home from work Spirit decided to explain what that meant. (Why can't they wait until I'm safe and sound at home and sitting down for crying out loud?) I have since lost the notes I jotted down, but it is the Call. The call for the Feminine to rise and protect and heal the Earth. To protect the children of all species and bring about Balance. Balance and Healing for the future generations. The time is NOW. The Call has been sent out. HEAR IT!
      Then a few weeks later I was sitting in my kitchen and I heard strange noises. Low, soft, rumbling vocalizations.... and what? Muffled footsteps? Upon looking up I saw Mother Mary walking forward. Her right hand raised in Blessing... Her left hand holding a wooden staff with a lantern hanging from it somehow. There was a huge lioness on either side of Her, and more behind those! They were all alert and constantly scanning their surroundings. I watched as they walked. Where their paws would touch the ground, a vaporous dust arose. The front pair made certain that they were just a step or so ahead of Mother Mary. The pair immediately behind them were watching off to the sides and I could sense three lioness' that were in charge of guarding the  back of the group. In total there were at least twelve or fifteen.  Maybe more....
     So there you have it. Those are the visions that I so wanted to share with all of you this evening. Thank you so much for letting me do so.
    We are all being called to awaken this innate power within and help bring the Return of Balance to our beautiful world. Your Love and Feminine Power is needed to help Heal Mother Earth and all who are part of Her.
     Blessings to All.
    
  

Time to return.......

   Well, its been over three years since I've posted here. Have been through a lot in that period. My mother's Parkinson's and dementia progressed to the point of having to place her in long term care. Its been a long strange journey that has left me exhausted in all respects. "Tired to the depths of my Soul" is the phrase that best describes where I'm at. And I'm really not certain how to proceed with my healing and recovery.
    "Time to return to the temple" I said to myself. But I still didn't make the effort. "Create!" I told myself. But I was unable to begin. "Then simply rest for now", which turned out to be much more difficult than I thought it would be! So I've just been going along and doing the best I can while learning not to be too hard on myself. Its a learning experience. chuckle
    Then came the day that Tree Sisters asked if any of the sisters wanted to start Groves. For some reason that really perked my interest. Went ahead and named it The Grove of the Ancient Mothers...... what else would it be?  chuckle Right now its just me and a friend or two. Coordinating our prayers for Mother Earth and all who are a part of Her.  Over time I will see how my recovery goes and then perhaps I'll reach out and create a women's group here.... or perhaps things will stay small (but powerful). Time will tell.

   Hmmm, have decided to share some of my ideas that I thought of for the Grove in this space.  That lets me create and then its here to share with anyone who is interested.   Good medicine!  Blessings to All
