Inspirited Connections

What do you feel, hear, smell
when you think horse...beauty...
Is what you feel real or is it just your imagination?
What is the power of this creative imagination?
What is the power of joy, gratitude, love?

Our Bodies are landscapes that hold the Life Energy of
Nature. Where has our trust in this wisdom gone?
Perhaps we have lost our balance as we race through our fast
paced life. Horses have been our companions for centuries
yet they have always remained on the edge of wildness and
again today they wait on the edges of our lives for us to slow
down and listen deeply. Perhaps it is in the sensing of this
untamable quality that horses call to us...
Who are the domesticated ones ?

The spiritual teacher gives no answer but a riddle to send the
student on his own journey. It is at the core of conscious
education that the body, mind and spirit be shaped through
direct experience. Knowing arises through the body
envelopped in a feeling that has no name but has quality.
In trusting we know from deep inside our being lies the key to
the mastery of personal freedom.To find it, one needs to
wander the inner landscapes of the self.

Horses teach us to move while keeping our balance. By
teaching us how to ground and center our being in our
physical body, we reconnect the sacred with material reality.
Interacting with horses, we discover what it means to be truly
present and we start noticing when and how we get rocked
out of our centers.

In Latin "Mater" is associated both with Mother and Snake:
the Sacred Transformative Feminine. In Spanish, the
ancient root of the word "Caballo", meaning horse, is "Cava"
or Cave... Beyond the form we often idealize or the daring
travels to new lands, the horse's inner nature alternately
carries us or moves us to walk from the light into our shadows
and back. Again and again we resurface between the trees,
under the leaves the sunshine plays with the night...
SpiritMatters.

Most of us have trouble believing what cannot be validated
by the objective mind. We are surrounded by manifestations
of energy in the forms of radios, computers, microwaves...yet
we are mainly unaware of the subtle energies that animate and
affect our bodies.
To know, one only has to witness a person bursting into
tears after a horse rests its nose on their heart or experience
a magical ride when following a glance a horse carries you
across the sand as if you where flying .
With one single glimpse into Oneness, the journey has
begun. Horses are a doorway...

It is through touch that horses communicate and Reiki
balances our bodies, minds and spirits. In myths, the seeker is
gifted with magical objects to help him on his journey. Reiki is
such a gift. The practice of Reiki helps us find the inner
silence and the light we need to perceive beyond the limits of
our usual ways in order to bring back into everyday life more
of who we are. We are the gifts to the world.

As Reiki increases our awareness and Horses give us
concrete undeniable confirmation of what we are
experiencing we know there is another way. Whether we are
on the ground or sitting on their backs, as we clarify our
intentions and witness the Horses responding to subtle
changes within us we Know without a shadow of a doubt
there is another way, Co-Creation. We take courage in the
process and hold up a Torch in Daylight...
