Hilma, nature spirits & HD

I treated myself to something special yesterday: MOMA’s exhibition companion of “What Stands Behind the Flowers.” Hilma was a prolific, talented, and devoted spiritualist. Just extraordinary. I feel something when I look at her work, as if something fundamental in me is being stirred and called to life.

I’ve been hungry for translations of her many, many essays and this newly published edition was just perfect.

I was in Generator heaven, touching the pages, humming and thrumming…my motor was purring away. And when I came across the quote, I thought of Ra (Ha! of course I did…I’m saturated with Human Design!) and The 64 Evolutionary Steps and Architecture of Life series.

I’ve been working on a document to connect our current program’s “round” (every 19,364 years) with the original I’Ching and the elements. I envision a piece where you can pull up your chart and find your thread in the larger tapestry. I want to give people many ways to touch into this incredibly rich information and to feel seen, understood, and validated.

When we look at the evolutionary pattern, the BodyGraph’s Gates are analyzed sequentially (ie 1, 2, 3, 4 … not their order around the Mandala). Gate 5 comes very early in our development and is where we interface with plants. Between The 64 Evolutionary Steps and his teachings in Design of Forms/Architecture of Life, we’re designed to affect and be affected by the plant world.

This is one of my favorite quotes: “If you want to be spiritual, eat your salad. God is in the food. Spirituality is in the food. Our way of meeting the outside and taking in the world is that we eat it. All you need to be spiritual is to have a good, solid, varied diet.” ~ Ra

(PS, there are a couple of caveats to that…if you are Taste determination in which repetition reigns, and potentially, if you carry Gate 50 on the body side.)

I was jumping inside when I read Hilma’s impressions. I carry the design of plants. I believe in treatment by flower essences. I live with so many plants. Trees are my happy place.

I love, love, love when I come across synchronicities in this knowledge…the clairvoyant Theosophists Annie Besant and C.W. Leadbeater were talking about ‘koilon’ which to me read like neutrinos. Hilma observed nature spirits as she undertook her detailed examinations, and I could see the thread between her impressions and Edward Bach’s. And then we have Ra receiving channeled teachings through a harrowing 8-day event.

Ra talked about how he felt things as he taught them. It’s why he didn’t love cosmology…many of the teachings and what will be evolved were too alien for him: “I don’t know how this works, but I get to feel these things as I go through. It was the same kind of thing when I was looking at the Rave in Rave Cosmology. I think that was one of the most difficult courses I have ever had to teach because I could really, really feel it and it was something I didn’t like.”

If that is true, the framework he evolved for accessing the knowledge was a living, breathing thing. He spoke often about how he surrendered to his teaching process. Aside from diagrams that he loved to meditate upon, he had no idea what he was going to say ahead of time.

As I read more and more, I watch the evolution and refinement of the knowledge. It is a pleasure and a privilege to be a part of this.

I’ve been feeling Generator stuckness lately…I can tell that I’m in-between stages, just waiting for the opportunity to shift into a new gear. It’s not comfortable to be idling but I’m doing my best to surrender into this process and its necessary timing. For any of you who may be wondering when you get to see the payoff, when all of this work will finally feel worth it, I’m going to close with a channeled message to De Fem (The Five), in which five women, including Hilma, came together to receive teachings from ascended masters:

“You are bewildered by what we have told you, but the phenomenon we are trying to explain is truly bewildering. What is this phenomenon, you ask? Well, beloved, it is that which we want to call the secret growing. How often have we heard you say that everything is futile, that nothing comes of all your labors.

“Yet like amorphous buds your endeavors sprout in all directions. You see everything as formless and you forget that this is a sign of life. Gradually the formlessness takes on more precise contours and the steadily growing roots feed an even stronger plant, which will one day explode with an abundance of leaves and flowers.

“You know this is so, but you must perceive this knowledge with such vividness that you dare to build upon it. You have to feel with certainty that even the smallest effort to grow in goodness leaves a clear trace inside you.

“When you do not see an outer result, this must not discourage or tire you in your efforts, for just as invisible hands help and tend every plant on this green Earth, so every budding sprout of goodness is tended and shaped and protected by invisible powers and when the time comes your eyes will open and you too will see the beautiful plant that grew in secrecy, the product of your noble endeavors and your pure intentions.

“Accept our account as a greeting from us so that you shall never tire when all seems lost.”

Shine on,
