sea alchemy.
Really the best I have for this one is to say you had to be there. I’ve seen a lot creatures in their natural habitat; wolves, coyotes, eagles, moose, big horn elk, pure white mountain goats trapped on rocky mountain ledges my by dog, tarantulas, unicorns, dragons, but nothing is like the Orca. I can’t explain them. But they opened some kind of portal for me, I got to step into a new place, one I had been waiting for, a waterworld of healing and sound and Freedom. These monster creatures slide through the waves and leap from water to air and back again so quickly that my fingers were cramping trying to capture in a moment their fluidity and grace, silliness and power. Matriachs. Hunters. Show-offs. Teachers. The natives around these Islands call them the Sea Wolf, Guardian of the Cosmic Memory. And I can see why, they hold tight to the secrets of the home we all return, and yet are generious with unlocking the joy, continuous and all prevailing. Gifting those who ask with the presence of their medicine.
Grander than grand, HUGE, two resident pods let me watch them for at least an hour, I lost time, it vanished completely. Babies and mamas and papas and an old, old grandmother, too. Family. Spyhopping! It was about family, community, taking care of and protecting. They are about pure fun and adventure. They are slick and sexy. FASTER THAN FAST. HUGE. They are creativity and transformation. Gatekeepers of Eternal Good Times. Did I mention they are HUGE? I felt like the child I am when I was with them. I practice it now, being the child I am.
{eating a cheese and avacado sandwhich WHILE holding binoculars to her eyes} MAMA? They are magic. Orcas are magic, like magic from the sea. I love them, mama, they are perfect.
How magical - your words are popping off the screen with bliss.
How magical indeed would it be if Orcas were our escorts to the Underworld?
