Regardless of race, gender, skin color, age, education, intelligence, emotional maturity, status, religious beliefs, or anything else we like to use to identify ourselves with and differentiate from one another, there is one major, basic, fundamental commonality we share - we are humans living on Planet Earth. Our beautiful home, blessed with amazing nature, animals and biodiversity worthy of awe and pure amazement. A work of Art, created by Source for our own enjoyment, nourishment and delight, we sometimes tend to take for granted.
How we care for our home shows our level of conscious awareness of who we are and the interconnectedness of all. When we alienate ourselves from what sustains us, when we fight, divide and conquer, when we disrespect Mother Earth and devalue life, we suffer. When we get along, plant gardens, share food, connect, exchange wisdom, laughter, kindness and joy, protect wildlife and the wild, make full use of the gifts our generous Mother shares with us for free, and treat Her with love, gratitude and appreciation, we thrive collectively and remember that God/life/divine intelligence is in everything and everyone - the Earth and all within it, is one Spirit expressing itself in a multitude of intricate, unique forms. After all, if somebody from another plant wants to come and visit, we got to have something wonderful to show for, right?
There is an intelligence that does not use words. Pure knowing that just is. Changeable. Always in motion. Alive. Uniting all and moving through us, the plants, the animals, the air, the water, the sunlight, the Earth, the stars, the moon, the planets. The divine spark in every living organism. Unity consciousness. Divine Love that flows between open hearts. Kaleidoscopic wisdom encompassing past, present and future. When I stay in touch with Nature and the elements, I am in touch with it. I feel, I listen, I connect, I allow, and I co-create with it.
Don’t deny the madness that you hide… the wilderness inside… hear it cry… the land of grief the valley of despair the gulf of greed the mountain of fear the lava lake of anger the swamp of festering stagnation the canyon of cowardice the ridge of reservation the crater of frustration the avalanche of guilt the cave of broken promises the ocean of anxiety the strait of chasing notoriety the tundra of shame the delta of lust the valley of envy the plateau of “I’m fine” the fjord of pride the sinkhole of “that’s not divine” the lagoon of loneliness and longing, promises belonging.
Searching on the outside to no avail, one day you turn inward, begin to explore, claim it all, and become whole!
THE TIME IS NOW! LET'S KEEP CO-CREATING THE NEW EARTH TOGETHER, LOVING OURSELVES, LOVING ONE ANOTHER, LOVING THE PLANET AND HONORING ALL!
P.S. All of my self-portraits from AS WITHIN, SO WITHOUT are available for free download on Unsplash for New Earth architects and whoever else enjoys 🙂 Due credit is always appreciated 😉
time traveling, unraveling… i’ll take you there your chest, my hair. uncovering all the places we have been together and apart, the truths within - one from the start. your eyes - unfold me… your arms - just hold me… your hands - unmold me… your mouth - slowly… my eyes - they know you my lips - they call you my hands - explore you my world, i’ll show you… soul of the soul: you and me, whole. love making love: you in me, free. heart to heart: you as me, see.
I woke up at 3am the other night to allow this insight through … enjoy!
Sexuality♾️.~.~.~.~.~.~.~.~♾️Spirituality
Our sexuality can serve as a doorway to spirituality and through making love to another human being we can get a realization of oneness/have a profound spiritual awakening. In the moments of intense presence when time and space disappear we can experience our true selves - namely, pure awareness. The two bodies merged as one, the polarity united in singularity. Thus lovemaking becomes a sacred act, a meditation, a doorway to the divine, nurturing enlightenment, a deeper connection, mental, physical and emotional well-being. It’s an opportunity for constant renewal - all agendas and techniques disappear, giving way to pure presence, sensitivity, sensuality, playfulness, awareness. We do not come together for a particular end/to reach orgasm, but to simply enjoy one another and celebrate our humanity and divinity. Making love is a beautiful flow of energy, a sweet surrender to simply being and allowing the doing to happen in its own for the bodies can feel their own rhythm and inner wisdom and they know how to move/what to do. Just like dancing or playing music, the enjoyment is in the act and when orgasm happens it’s a blissful high followed by a mellow calm that can be sparked by a single touch to another blissful high. This can only happen when both individuals have done the inner work to be completely free of any shame, guilt, fear and other negative conditioning around sexuality/the natural human body and can fully embrace and accept themselves and the other. There is a sweetness and sacredness to making love in pure awareness that is beyond words, opening doorways to other worlds/planes of existence, bringing more light and love to the Earth, and anchoring these new energies in the body as our beautiful miraculous vessel for experiencing this physical reality of seeming separation and duality. Sex between enlightened conscious partners is a most natural and effortless transcendence of the limitations of form and rebirth into embodied expanded awareness - again and again, to no end. When two powerful energetic streams of life force merge together in love and presence, they propel the collective evolution of consciousness through downloading, channeling and emitting higher vibrations and frequencies. Gradually bliss becomes a sustained state that can be revisited/experienced at any time, for it’s the truth if who we are.
Hear it here.
Making love to a woman who embodies her true nature, which is Love, is a creative experience of dissolution of the ego/limited self, merging into oneness, remembering our divinity and coming back reborn anew. The womb symbolizes the formlessness out of which everything arises, and being inside of it one is nurtured, nourished, replenished and enriched with new potentials and possibilities. It is a blissful opportunity to shed thoughts, feelings, beliefs and ideas which no longer serve us and re-emerge with new inspiration, direction and drive. Knowledge is dead and static, knowing is alive and constantly flowing. A woman in touch with her true nature is like nature - constantly changing, expanding, evolving, in tune with the ebb and flow of the life-death-life cycles (through her own menstrual cycle), balanced, harmonious, radiant. Touching her body and being immersed in it is like bathing in the waters of a warm mineral spring - the more love and care you put into her, the more will be returned to you, for she multiplies it all.
Beyond definitions and identities, the real you shines. Namaste, beautiful soul.
Drop it - The masks The fear The unworthiness The not-enough The almost there The anxiety The chase The game The battle The guilt The shame The struggle The constant questioning The perfect image The imperfect self The past The future The mind The being right The preferences and opinions The many unconquered dominions.

This collection of self-portraits represents me coming to terms with the truth that I am enough and too much at the same time, and that’s perfectly fine/I would not have it any other way.
I co-created directly with the Sun, the images/videos are NOT EDITED at all, shot in Santa Barbara, CA in August/September 2022, natural light, natural body, natural raw real whole self.
How simple, yet hard to accept oneself completely. However, if/when you do everything somehow falls into place. 🙏❤️🔥☀️

There are unseen passages that open up just for us when we turn within to connect with the truth of who we are. Nothing else is needed, but a willingness to look, to be still, to surrender to the elements, to feel, to know… any time and any place is right to explore the roadmap of the soul.
She was never alone:
The Sun hugged her all over
The Earth supported her every step
The Water nurtured her roots
The Air encouraged her flight
She contained them within.
She gave birth to them without.
A poem I wrote today inspired by a conversation with my friends in our Music & Poetry Twitter space sharing about this amazing 30-day meditation challenge I did in December
{the benfits of meditation:}
what does it
mean to be free?
from the stories
that came before,
oppressing you even
more?
from the ideas of who you need to be,
even the ones
of what it means
to be free?
from the narrow minds
that walk the lines
or
from self-imposed
confines?
from the voices in your head,
thoughts playing on repeat,
feelings that you never wish
to actually truly meet?
if only…
one day…
i could be free
for all the things I want to
do and be…
for art
for adventure
for music
for friends
for tea
for deep conversations
for long naps
for walks by the sea
for kisses
for laughter
for sharing grief
for dreaming
for savoring
for making-believe
for soaking up sun
for meaningful work
for some simple fun
for all the things
that make you sad
for all the things
that make your heart glad
for all the things
accessible
to you and me
- surprisingly -
for free!
funny how it is,
what we seek
is always
right in front
of us
yet we always
seem to
miss
then
one
fine
day
you
realize
that
simply
“FREE”
is
what
you
have
always
been
and
will
always
be
{self-realization}
Maybe life is like exploring a new place the museums the shops the cafes the restaurants the bars the parks the mountains the beaches the attractions the clubs the spas the wineries the alleys the busy streets the tourist traps the obscure local dives the photo ops the accidental finds the fancy the mundane the well-trodden path the rough terrain the sweet the sour and the like the trending the forgotten the bizarre up down left and right the sunset and the morning light so much to see and smell and taste to take in to experience to revel in to grace. and then
…
your face.
a memory of long ago
it has always been you
I’ve longed to
explore.
in
out
and all the way
through.
new vistas
new landscapes
a sacred vision
come true.
aimlessly floating on my own volition
winds to and fro inhale my sails
currents carry me to shores unexplored
i set my imprint in the stones
and swiftly slip away again
thirsty for the familiar ground
that shines anew each day
and shifts and moves with me...
i tire but keep searching
propelled by an
elusive
empty
exotic
enchanting
effervescent
eternal
pull
coming from within
that pushes me out
out of my skin
expanding
blending
merging
bursting
until
all
my
neatly
sown
seams
come undone
and i carefully put them
together
anew
stronger
wiser
better...
then
you appear
to anchor me.
This came through the other day, wrote it down in a matter of three minutes, felt moved to take pictures today…
Feeling encapsulated by the deadening dullness of the limited shared reality, the wanderer crosses the threshold of imposed commonality to get lost in the vastness of the void where anything is possible. The lucrative unknown holds an elusive quality, a mystery that beckons to be explored, but never unravelled completely for its intricate secrets weave themselves into ever more complex patterns that strike with their inherent stoic simplicity. Shapes and visions blend, merge and dance into a series of processions that disappear in the blink of an eye only to re-emerge in a more-vivid-than-before kaleidoscopic formation of pure delight and fascination. The meaning is obscured by palpable presence penetrating to the core of all and revealing itself as the cradle of existence. Non-being implies being, darkness gives birth to light, quiet superimposes noise, life is swallowed by death only to burst into more life, all opposites unite and return to the origin of all things where they have always been. A spark, a thirst, a hunger rekindles the fire again and explodes into an outburst of desire to know itself. A universe is born anew. Welcome, yes, you.

There is a higher order
A calling
A thread that connects souls
And when the time comes
It beckons.
A knowing from deep within emerges
There is no choice
Decision has been made
Follow
Follow
Follow
Your heart.
Forge your way into the unknown
Creation delights in
Pure Passion.
Boldness
Rapture
Bliss.
Eternity
Since our last
Kiss.
With touch? With sunlight? With tears? Rainstorms? Cool ocean breeze? With music? Alone? With people? Alone with people? In shared silence? A look A knowing A nod Walking Feet in the sand At night In bed Silently? Violently? In broken glass? With candlelight? Soft kisses... A glass of wine In the bathtub Water Fire Earth Air Head in the clouds Hands in the soil Endless sky Roots deep down Eyes closed Remembering The joy The pain The bliss The sadness This... Is How I Feel... It All.
I see beyond the masks you wear. The roles they put you in For that’s all They could see and know Surface surfers Assuming you are one of them. However, Deep inside of you You always knew. Cognitive dissonance. But could you truly be another? When all reflections seemed to show the same? Yet, it was not your true face. You smile and laugh To hide The void inside. Until it swallows you in To realize Who you have always been. No longer fearing the depth You dwell in it And hope to see it in another. Connect. Knowing Not knowing How or why Simply that You Me And God That’s three In One. No more blind I see. Shedding it all Brilliant Joyous Luminous Free.
We are God particles Dancing In sunlit expanses Fields ripe with moonlight Above the clouds Elevated We rise Within the Earth We sleep and Remember. Integrating all we are Recognizing Greeting Connecting Uniting To part again More yourself Carrying me with you Loving Loving Loving For I am You. One in myriads of forms Conscious Beathing Alive Getting to know Oneself. One Self. Kiss me Hold me Touch me. A smile from your soul Transcending time Caresses mine Obliterates space Together, We lie. The world dissolves For we are it. Finally Whole Complete. Sweet Dream Sweet.
What am I doing here? Remind me again. Watching the rain The body begs for kisses Cold coffee instead. You know we came to dream A new dream The new dream. So long searching to find you Gathering the pieces Of who I am. Could have been anyone No one satisfies. Could be doing anything But why? Longing Longing Longing
We meet Your eyes My eyes Speak Our lips Kiss Our hands Unite Our hearts Collide It’s warm Inside Blissful Happy Together Until one day It lurks upon me... I feel it in your touch It’s written in your gaze A silent sentence you Don’t have to speak I panic I can’t breathe I want out of the Gilded cage you built for me {A perfect one indeed With all the comforts Worthy of a queen} Assuming I am all you need A finished product A perfect image What you have been looking for Your whole life A manifest of a complete idea...
My body remembers you from eons ago My mind doubts it is possible My heart speaks the truth softly My soul yearns for yours My being knows. All that is You evokes all that is Me Two essences merge as One. In your presence, I flow In my presence, you burn. Together we clear the old and nourish the new Ablaze Our path, the path of Love Beyond separation, into unity. My outlines tracing yours Your thoughts finding home in mine Our hearts beating in the same rhythm Us, created in Love Led by Source Joyously dancing in harmony into Eternity. Love in your eyes meets Love in my eyes Oh Love, we came from the stars. I am sun beams and moonlight You are passion and poetry Together we nurture our nature. We sought, and we found. We have chosen each other since before time began Hand in hand we birth new beginnings. Firmly found in Love Softly surrendered to Source. Beyond appearances and veils Beyond light and dark Beyond past and future We stand, in the eternal now Entangled as one. Your needs, my wants. My beauty, your reflection. Tender and true Fearless force Sensual symphony Faithful Love.

On the threshold of a new beginning The old falls away We rise above it I create in you You create in me Together dissolving in one Love we follow Love we create Love we are Love it is.

I am Mother Goddess. I gave birth to this world, to every single living thing in this Universe From the grain of sand to the biggest Sun. I love my children so much, for they are a continuation of me and Father God. We are contained in them, they are contained in us An endless spiral into Infinity. I am always here for them Yet they have forgotten of my existence. They long for my loving embrace But they do not remember which is the way home. There is a sacred doorway they need to enter One they have kept shut for too long The doorway of the heart.
I am wild, unexplored, uncharted There are no maps to get to me, Because my territory changes all the time. There is chaos, volcanoes Raging storms, tumultuous oceans, Scorching deserts, volatile winds All hiding within me. I smile amidst it and harmony is born. My being yearns, craves, Destroys, devours, Consumes and leaves behind. My being nourishes, loves Creates, nurtures, Brings forth and solidifies. I flow through time unbound Spill out and over Fill every crevice Persuasive and pervasive. My essence leaves an imprint A taste in your mouth A tingling in your limbs A haunting image Of something long lost You once had And now you want it back.

To hold possession over me… Impossible save when we...are One in God/Love
