Don't gain the world and lose your Soul
– Bob Marley
Soft white petals, scent so sweet, where the faces of the Goddess wait to meet. I See them all, golden glow, one standing in the centre, medicine to show. I’ve known for some time what’s happening here, this love for Nature, my heart holds dear. But others are shifting in spiritual form, no longer human, android transform. It feels much easier to speak this out in rhyme, for might this be the greatest against humanity crime. Many don’t know it, even when they should, so let's bring it to surface to be better understood. Something’s taking root and beginning to grow, synthetic, artificial, robotic tomorrow.

Oh Demeter what must you make of this, so called modern agricultural practice. Yes, you are what you eat, but let’s expand this to consume, stuffing it down with no pause to resume. But true abundance is only found within, radiating out such healthy skin. No free radical damage or oxidative stress, oh to live in a world where more is less. Botox injections, might make the muscles relax, but human blood plasma oh those life hacks. Your physical appearance, more than meets the eye, so let’s look beyond, oh don’t be shy.

Beautiful within, but what’s your secret, you’ve retained your true humanity, but how did you keep it? Ahh so you found your way to the Goddess inside, where sacred Earth and Water embrace like riverside. Gracefully flowing, plasma cooling, relaxing muscles, not blood that’s pooling. Wait just a moment for I know this story, lessons from Cannabis in all of her glory. Those soft white petals I earlier mentioned, belong to Magnolia, so pure intentioned. Able to activate the endocannabinoid system, reducing pain, inflammation, and blocks to blood wisdom. Soothing anxiety and sleep disorders, calm within, awaiting higher orders.

It’s clear how the pure here have been adulterated, do you reap what you sow, or are you being cultivated. But Demeter’s always ruled over the harvest, so we’re going to plant some seeds, true humanity harnessed. She knows the loss of losing something precious to the darkness, never giving in to something so heartless. So like the first sign of spring, signalling Persephone’s return, re-membering true human is this season to learn. Are you outside in Nature with your hands in the soil, at one with her essence, forever staying loyal. Or is it all too much this human being, auto-mate with artificial so many now agreeing. The choice is yours, maybe it’s just fate, but best direct your intention before it’s too late. Nature’s medicines, always there to help restore, culturally appropriate if you’re going to go explore. There are many ways and no one size fits all, how will you know? For inside it will call.

But the enteric nervous system, you might know it as the second brain, responsible for gut feeling, for so many all it does is complain. For an irritated gastrointestinal system, triggers a change in mood state, anxiety and depression, so many these days can relate. Misfiring messages, disruptions in communication, soon eroding sense of spiritual identification.

So let’s bring it back to where it all started, Earth’s oldest flowering plant that’s still today open hearted. Magnolia survived the dinosaurs and their extinction, independent higher thinker, pure resilience with deep conviction. At one with the natural world and divinity of femininity, deeply rooted in the most sacred humility. Born at a time before the bees were conceived, pollinated by beetles, in her flowers their bowels relieved. Eating her petals, leaving quite the mess, but her floral displays continue to unconditionally bless. Oh what a reflection of the human race, so few now with divine connection in this place. But some of us still fly softly from flower to flower, kissing her tenderly not forcing our power. For this time in human history things have become inverted, power shifting from pure to perverted. But look deeper beyond this human play and you’ll See the divine feminine never really went away. Yes her petals might have hardened as she’s bitten into, but as we all know, the only way out is through.

Ten years have passed, when in the Amazon to me she first came, from that moment life would never be the same. Some serve God, others the Goddess, they meet in the heart, love is the witness. Yes, everything on Earth can be changed in an instant, for her love is strong but it’s patient and consistent.

So to the spirit of Magnolia and the goddesses who came here to assist, fill my people with the purest love for that’s truly all that must exist.

Stay faithful to the unchangeable that in your heart sits, that’s the pure essence of Nature that to the Earth transmits. And re-member that here you’re simply human being, so leave the world a better place, after this season of sightseeing.
* some participant names might have been changed for pen names.
* no participants were informed that it was the spirit of Magnolia we were working with until after they had all shared their experience of the Session.

I immersed myself in a journey guided by the energy of the medicine, toward a majestic place, one still unknown to many.

I passed through a realm inhabited by beings whose material structure differs from ours. There, I experienced a sensation I had never known before; it wasn’t pity, nor sadness, nor fear, but neither was it joy. It was something deeper, something difficult to name, yet intensely real.

That’s when I understood the true problem humanity faces today does not lie in the energy some call “negative.” That energy is part of existence itself. The real conflict begins when people allow that energy to govern their matter, their minds, emotions, desires, and bodies.

The problem is not spiritual, but material, matter that has been emptied of its essence. Many act disconnected from their essential being, having renounced, perhaps unconsciously the root of their own existence. That’s why it’s so difficult for them to fully inhabit this world.

As a guardian, I fulfill my duty. I can help others remember their mission, but I cannot do what each one came here to do. Humanity has condemned itself by forgetting who it is, by living enslaved by desire and material ambition. It has reduced its existence to the intangible, and in doing so, it becomes difficult to connect with spirit, and with other beings.

Only a few are aware of this truth. And in the realm of the Guardians, of which I am a part, responsibility spans across all dimensions. At times, it is exhausting to live among those who do not know how to coexist. They not only abandon their own purpose, they interfere with the missions of others.

And yet, life goes on. Everything moves in seasons, a cycle that continues.

And from within my awareness, I know: a new cycle of material existence is about to take form, one that will arise in a structure unlike anything we’ve known.

Me sumergí en un viaje guiado por la energía de la medicina hacia un lugar majestuoso y para muchos aún desconocido. Atravesé un espacio habitado por seres cuya estructura material es distinta a la nuestra. Allí experimenté una sensación desconocida; no era lástima, ni tristeza, ni miedo, pero tampoco alegría. Era algo más profundo, difícil de nombrar, pero intensamente real. Entonces comprendí que el verdadero problema que enfrenta hoy la humanidad no radica en la energía que algunos llaman “negativa”. Esa energía forma parte de la existencia misma. El verdadero conflicto surge cuando las personas permiten que esa energía controle su materia, su mente, emociones, deseos y cuerpos. El problema no está en lo espiritual, sino en la materia que ha sido vaciada de esencia. Muchos actúan desconectados de su ser esencial, han renunciado, quizás inconscientemente, a la raíz de su propia existencia. Por ello les cuesta habitar verdaderamente este mundo. Como guardián, cumplo mi deber. Puedo ayudar a otros a recordar su misión, pero no puedo hacer aquello para lo que cada uno vino. La humanidad se ha condenado a sí misma al olvidar quién es, al vivir dominada por el deseo y la ambición material. Han reducido su existencia a lo intangible, y al hacerlo, les resulta difícil conectarse con su espíritu y con otros seres. Solo algunos son conscientes de esta verdad. Y en el mundo de los guardianes del que formo parte, la responsabilidad se extiende a través de todas las dimensiones. A veces resulta agobiante convivir con quienes no saben coexistir. No solo incumplen su propio deber, sino que interfieren con la misión de otros. Sin embargo, la vida sigue. Todo es una temporada, un ciclo que continúa. Y yo desde mi conciencia, sé que un nuevo ciclo de existencia material está por transformarse en una estructura diferente a la que conocemos.

It was very physical, very deep. I felt like there was a doughnut shape energy loop diving in and out of itself in my field, around my head. My mouth was hot, body heavy, sinking into the bed. Energy in fingers and toes. Then I just left this plane, as if I’d fallen into a reboot, some sort of update coma. As it finished, knowing exactly when the medicine was over because I was ‘back online’ I needed to immediately jump out and dive in the sea. The moon was coming right out of the water, out of the line of horizon. Magic, is all I can say

strong feeling of being enveloped, started first in the right side of the body, as if i was being anchored from the right foot, heart, upper body, crown.

spirit told me many times to trust deeper, deeper, deeper.

as i let go i saw being in the forest, and it was aware of my presence. all beings in forest turning their "energy face" towards me in a curious observation. then it shifts to night sky and the cosmos raise from the forest, i travelled to a total pink planet.

there were many trees, and one giant tree was rising, spiraling around a giant dna spiral. a rainbow journey started and I saw as if there were transparent translucent tubes and consciousness of many were travelling towards a giant eye pupil from inside.

"the current is being carried to the body" that's what i received.

then i was a new born, and saw a baptist ceremony. a feeling of full embrace of a motherly presence. felt my mother's family surrounding me...

felt like singing in the last song, but it started to turn into a trans state and there was an enthusiastic being wanting to chant an ancient song through me, without my permission. gently refused and called angels. then once more i was enveloped in love and all left with a little headache.

felt empowering and deep lessons in it. thank you so much.

Strong high ringing in both ears, sounds of very high bells on top of it. My energybody pulsing like a torus, connected with the whole universe and the cosmic breath of life. I could see the universe breathing in and out as one organism, one eternal form of life.

As time went by my physical body got more substance as if more and more universal energy came into it. Big humming and vibrating in the whole body. Spirals in the spine, reaching the brain in the end.

During the whole day I had difficulties to stay anchored in my body, there where parts who wanted to not be present at all. Now I feel stuffed to the edge with this humming and vibrating substantial all connecting heaviness, a new form of being present within myself and in relation to existence.

Started with a strange feeling of anticipation and nervousness similar to a plant medicine ceremony. Then I began to feel waves of energy pulse through my body and this continued throughout the session. There was a point on my right leg that felt like it was intermittently being bitten by a small insect. I was transported to inner earth and the waters there. It felt similar to Ayni, sacred reciprocity where I was able to bless the waters of the inner earth while also receiving healing and rejuvenation from it. Finally I was flying, it felt like I was a bird of prey, like an eagle, flying over forest and sea. It felt familiar.

Floating with my breath to meet my soul and the pure beauty of just being. A deep dive into the particles I am made of. Floating in an ocean of stars. There is a change of perspective and the ocean of stars turns into a sky full of stars, where the sky floats me upside down so there is no falling just a moving up. Gravity turning around
