Lately in the woods I encountered a fly agaric. Its bright red and orange head was so vibrant, I got kind of spellbound by its powerful presence. This magical mushroom-being seemed to be the guardian of the place. Its vitality was obvious, its power undeniable.
I felt a deep connection and relief, that this ancient resident of the woods was still here, birthed by the earth below my feet.
Inspite of all destruction going on in the world, the abuse of the land and all beings, due to our "civilized" way of living - this ancient guardian of the woods was still standing strong.
Its presence and vibrancy gave me hope. It showed me strength and resilience. It reminded me of the sacred mysteries, the earth is holding. Of wisdom beyond our imagination.
The song was born in the moment of singing in the woods.
