The Eye of the Storm

  • Life has cast me inside yet another whirlwind. Tossing and turning , spinning us all around. Things have happened so quickly the last couple of months we never really had a chance to recover. We are still within the midst of the storm, we see no end to it any time soon.

    We have been provided for and to be perfectly honest I do not know how we made it without loosing everything, and for this I am greatful. I have asked for this storm to pass, but instead I was taken into the middle of it, the eye,last night.

    The day started out very unstable. I have felt the pull of energy the last few days and then Friday night found about the super moon, which made sense with the amount I was picking up on. The day started taking a turn for the worse as one thing piled on after another. I was frustrated and angry. I knew with the energy so strong this could be channeled, but I also knew I was not grounded enough to channel it into something positive. My husband came up with an idea to have a campfire in the backyard. This completely lifted everyone's mood. He began to gather some firewood and the kids some stones to create a ring. At 9 we started the fire under the moon. It was so beautiful.

         We did a little fire divination and my daughter saw her spirit animal which was the butterfly. My son's was the fish. I found another one of mine, which is the red dragon, right in the fire. The log had it's body and face, including the eyes and the smoke was coming from his nose. I was told that I actually have 4 and each one represents each element. I knew of the Raven, snow olw,  and the wolf, but now the dragon and then it dawned on me that each DID represent a different element. Raven and owl, for me represents air because it is a bird and flies. The Wolf always represented earth because it walks upon the earth and is grounded to it. The Dragon always represented fire to me. And a couple of weeks ago, I was drawn to a white Orca. I felt he was also leading me.

    I started talking about energy a little bit to my chldren and so we raised some of the energy in order to make the fire bigger. We each took turns and my kids got to invision different things and watch it happen.My daughter invisioned other small fires and more tiny flames appeared and then disappeared after she broke the connection. My son wanted it to spiral on top of a log and the fire began to wrap around the tip.  We tried it as a group. Didn't work so well because our energy together wasn't in sinc. But it was fun to try. This really set a positive tone to the evening and helped me ground my energy a bit.

        I wish I had a bit more time. I could stay there for hours alone if I could.

    But in the midst of the storm I was shown the eye and the eye is that of peace, direction and intention. It is a place in time where time stands still and all things are possible. Within this place nothing else exsist then the energy around you. It is yours to choose on how to use it. Last night, I intended it to be used for other things but instead it was used to help my children see the greatness within themselves.  To see how powerful they truy are.

       Each gift that is given to us is eternal. Once we receive it, it becomes a part of us. Now the eye is with me always. It is my refuge inside of every storm that will ever come. Had I been taken out of the storm, it would have only protected me once. But by taking me to the center and giving me the eye, I am protected from every storm forever.

    If you are ever offered this gift, it would be wise to accept it. There is no greater peace then the peace that is found in the midst of total chaos. There is no greater moment then a moment where time stands still. And when you pray, do not pray for escape from the storm pray for the center, the eye, for it is the eye where your power tries lyes.
