Nature Needs Us As Much As We Need Nature

REMINDER from Mano:

Your Guardian Angel and elemental company would like to communicate with you. Write them a note and when complete, continue in the writing mode and let them respond by putting thoughts in your mind for you to write. 

REMARKS from Barbara:

Mano’s comment surprised me. I have done it often. It is worth a try, and a grand adventure that has blessed my life.

REMEMBERING Mary Jane:

Mary Jane had so much courage once she determined to accept Mano’s invitation to write his Blog.

Nature Needs Us As Much As We Need Nature 

Blog #114

Barbara’s Introduction

I have been indulging in a sweet review of Mary Jane’s Blogs. I want to collect her research and awareness of teachers and writers sharing their knowledge and experience of the elemental and nature consciousness. When I reviewed Blog #34, I reread my own story and decided to share it with you once again.

In conjunction with her talks and workshops at East West Bookstore in Mountain View in May and Center for Spiritual Living in Santa Cruz in June, Barbara wrote two articles for Connection Magazine: “Nature Needs Us As Much As We Need Nature” and “Everyone Has a Divine Plan”. This month’s blog combines these two articles. 

Barbara writes:

When I was 60 my husband and I moved to a small cottage in the heart of a redwood forest. I built a studio to explore painting the energies of the land. Jim opened a coffee house in Ben Lomond called The Gathering Place. 

Arthur Ford’s statement, “There is nothing so strange as how the strange seems ordinary once you get used to it,” proved to be true in my life. Over the past 27 years I have connected with the spirits of nature that live on my land. An angel, a gnome, and elementals are now my companions and source of inspiration.

One night I was awakened hearing the statement, “There once was a time a horrible time. . . . There once was a time a horrible time.” I went to the computer and wrote those lines. Then line by line the whole story was given to me about a woman who had lived in an ancient forest as the community healer, midwife, and wise woman. Her neighbors, infused with fear and suspicion during the Inquisition, burned her. She didn’t die and became a healing agent within her community. As I wrote these lines I saw paintings I had created 25 years earlier illustrating the story. 

This was a profound and curious experience. I didn’t know anything about the Burning Times. I was afraid of people’s reactions. I put the manuscript aside and tried to forget it. But my angel told me to realize that people’s fear of the non-physical world, even fear of their own intuition is the result of personal experience or fear left in the collective consciousness when 15 million people were killed over a 300-year period for their spiritual gifts, their intuition, clairvoyance, or clairaudiance. Today’s ignorance of the reality of angels and elementals, plus people ignoring their own spiritual gifts, may be the result of personal fear left in the collective consciousness from the Inquisition. 

Because all of the healers that interacted with nature beings were killed, nature beings are deeply in need of humans to nurture, interact, and help them stay conscious. I self-published The Burned Woman to make her story available and to move one step closer toward healing people’s consciousness from the fear of being different, the fear that people would think them crazy if anyone knew they carried spiritual gifts. 

My angel inspired me to create the DVD “Healing Burned Woman”, to tell Burned Woman’s story, my story, and nature’s story, with the request that you send love and gratitude and relate with the nature beings on your land, park, or even your house plants. 

My intent is to empower you: 

To recognize and honor your inner guidance and spiritual gifts
To identify and heal scars left from the Burning Times
To find your own story, your own voice
To recognize and trust your inner guidance, your guardian angel
To recognize the richness, power, security, and beauty of living your life through guidance from the inside out. 

Everyone has a divine plan, and mine is hidden in my name, Barbara. “Bar” means “child of” and “bara” means nature. As my name reveals, I have been called to be a bridge between humans and the spirits of nature. This began to unfold when I moved to the redwood forest. 

One day I became aware of a large gnome walking with me. He is one of the intelligent earth spirits who has been trained to interact with humans. We have related for 27 years. He teaches that nature consciousness is composed of large and small angels and elementals. All are in service to the planet and provide everything a human needs to live. 

Nature spirits are non-physical conscious beings within every aspect of nature. They need human recognition and support. My gnome friend requested that I say “hello” to the trees, plants, air, and water—that I bless and thank them. I interact through my feelings, intuition, and imagination. He shared Earth’s divine plan where in the beginning perfection reigned. Three kingdoms—angel, elemental, and human— came to evolve and develop life on earth. Perfection ruled until the humans made a choice that led to the “Fall from Grace”, thus creating separation and imperfection. 

Now millions of years later, as we enter the 7th Golden Age, it is imperative that humans remember the divine plan and work with angels and elementals to create perfection again. The angels can see the big picture but can’t intervene unless we ask, since humans have free will. The elementals continue to create from human thought forms. Our negative thinking contributes to atmospheric pollution and storms. Nature needs us to use our free will to ask for spiritual help. It is time to remember we are part of nature. We could not live on earth without nature. Nature needs our help to keep the air, water, and earth pure. 

We can call on the angels to come and purify the waters from human pollution; we can call for them to clean the air of human thought forms of fear over areas where there is war. We can call on angels to protect the elementals from the shock to their systems when bombs explode and destroy the plants and trees—the nature they have created and care for. Over and over we can call on angelic intervention to do whatever we can see and in our hearts and want to be different.
