There's something I've been reflecting on recently that I'd love to share some thoughts about here...I trust that the words come through to help me express this in an understandable way...it is to do with recognising *everyone* in any given situation as conduits for the universal energy/"Spirit", working together in co-creation. Over time it has become very clear to me that all of the "answers"/"clues" in any given situation are unlikely to all be brought forth only through ME, even if I might be personally accustomed to only seeing things from my perspective...
For example, if on a hike with fifteen people, there are at least fifteen different conduits there for the universal energy and the optimal next decision/solution for the highest good of all involved may not necessarily come in through me...if I was on my own, I'd naturally only have my own perspective to draw on (with Spirit's guidance of course)...however, when there are other people present, I have the possibility to open out my reality to embrace and include other inputs too...
I have often felt very moved, for example, to see how someone else in some situation suddenly shares an inspiration, idea or vital piece of information that I would personally have been unlikely to bring forth and which feels like THE missing piece of the puzzle right then in that moment... I feel so much gratitude for the way this tapestry seems to weave itself richly together through moments of interaction...and I love sensing how we are each such individual "funnels" for input into the co-creative game here... Some piece of information that might easily come forth through YOU as an idea or solution in a sticky situation, for example, may not necessarily be something that would be likely to come forth easily through MY being, yet can feel like exactly the "right answer" in that moment... Coming from a background of addiction/"control" issues/isolation etc, it is really rewarding and interesting for me to continually see how it is not necessary for me to feel like I am responsible for having "all the answers" in all situations - others around me are clearly conduits for the universal energy too, fellow Earth-explorers at this time, with their own unique input stream to share...what a blessing it is to dance these dances here together, each one adding their flow as we go and moving along together as a co-creative whole

Vilcabamba Raw Food Gathering, May 1st-14th 2011

OooOoooooo, we are just a couple of months away from the intended start of the 2011 Vilcabamba Raw Food Gathering, from May 1st-14th in Vilcabamba, Ecuador :)

Community Living in Vilcabamba...

Ooooo lalaaaa, we have pretty exciting visions forming for raw community here in Vilcabamba, Ecuador...you wanna come live here too? We just made an announcement in our newsletters about possibilities for co-creating kins' domains here...and the response has been HUUUGE already - if you didn't see this already, read on for the Monarch summary of opening possibilities:

-------------

As many of you already know, Angela and I are choosing Vilcabamba, Ecuador as our place of residence. We've looked around the Vilcabamba valley and we feel that we are living in the most prime and beautiful location here. There are currently eight or so owners in the community where we live, who either eat totally raw or seem to be following a healthy lifestyle. Additionally, as one result of the growing raw foods community here, some of our other neighbors seem to also be more interested in the raw foods lifestyle.

Angela and I are in the process of co-creating a project to help bring even more like-minded individuals to our community here (the Hacienda San Joaquin Ranch). In addition to the property where we live, we currently also have a beautiful 2.5 acre piece of land bordering the Vilcabamba river. This land is just feet away from the property where we live. We intend to build three structures on this river-side land - dwelling places for three or more like-minded families who would love to coexist together, alongside us :-). We don't plan on making a single dime of profit on this project; the primary intention is to bring in more like-minded people.

The three structures that we plan on building are:

1. 750 Square Feet House (2 Bedroom, 1 Bath)
2. 750 Square Feet House (2 Bedroom, 1 Bath)
3. 1500 Square Feet House (3 Bedroom, 2 Bath)

Each house will have its own kitchen and living area. Below are the current estimated prices for each structure, which also includes the land they will reside on. If more than one family wants to live in one of these homes, the cost could obviously be split amongst those involved. We are even willing to do payment plans to get you down here :-) Additionally, we'll do all that we can to assist you with getting settled here :-)

1. 750 Square Feet House (2 Bedroom, 1 Bath)
$81,250 or $40,625 each, shared between two
2. 750 Square Feet House (2 Bedroom, 1 Bath)
$81,250 or $40,625 each, shared between two
3. 1500 Square Feet House (3 Bedroom, 2 Bath)
$162,500 or $54,200 each, shared between three

Those who purchase these structures will own the houses and the shared land, free and clear in their names. We intend to start building these structures within the next few months. We wanted to announce this project now, because if anyone is seriously interested in getting involved, we can work with you to transform the plans and better fit your needs. For example, if a like-minded family is interested in the entire land to build their own structure(s) on it, we would be completely happy with that, or if two families know they would love to share the space, yet in a different way than what we have foreseen, we can work with that too. Again, the primary purpose of this project is to help bring in more like-minded people to our community and we are open to how that may unfold. Check out the video below as we discuss this plan and unique opportunity on this piece of land.

Once this project is complete and the land in question is home to like-minded people, we may be open to buying up more nearby land here, to co-create more kins' domains. The purpose of buying up more land would again be to help bring even more like-minded people to join us... :-)

If you are sincerely interested in getting involved in this project, please contact Angela and I at angela@rawreform.comThis e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it .

We feel that this is THE most ideal place for us to live on the ENTIRE planet! Once you have your land/structure/gardens in place here, you are pretty much set for life! The cost of living and food prices are extremely inexpensive here. For example, one HUGE avocado costs .30 cents. A GIGANTIC mango costs .20 cents. An entire 3-foot LARGE bushel of chlorophyll-rich alfalfa costs about .40 cents. Practically everything grows here and the climate is like spring all year round. Angela and I have been here for three months and we're already completely self-sufficient in greens from our land and garden. You can seriously just live off the wild edibles here, in green juices and smoothies. The air, soil and water quality here in the Andes are unparalleled and just by living here you will most likely add 10 years to your lifespan, release excess weight, reverse conditions of disease, sleep better and detox. We look forward to playing in "paradise" with you if you'd love to join us here...!

Let's co-create this magnificent vision... :)

One of my favourite aspects of this recent raw gathering, which I didn't mention yet, was that at least THREE new couples formed out of the mixture of people who came to visit ;O *LOVE* it :)))
This reminds me of the energy of the gatherings mentioned in the "Anastasia"/Ringing Cedars books, when Anastasia mentions community gatherings where people are commonly looking to connect with others, find a partner and so on, all the while enjoying fun community-connecting-events together ;) I'm so thrilled to think that this little gathering we just held here was flowing with even a little of that kind of energy - how beautiful :)))

Dear brother LoveSky Dancer in Glastonbury, England, would love to let y'all know that the world-renowned Maori Healers from Aotearoa/NZ are going to be holding sessions in the UK soon, for anyone who'd love to go along and experience their profoundly healing body work...these are the same Maori Healers who were sharing this amazing energy work at the Longevity Conference with Wolfie a few months ago - now they're on the way to Europe for a few months...

They will be sharing their wonders in Glastonbury from June 1st to the 10th: body work sessions will be available daily from June 1st-10th, then there will also be a workshop on Maori Healing Arts on June 5th-6th. For more info you can connect with Catherine on indigocath (at) mac.com...you can also check the www.maorihealers.com site - I don't think they have much European tour info up there yet though...there are more events in the UK and elsewhere too I believe...

ENJOY :)))

All love and healing dew,
