The Tree outside 'Villa Tosca', Capri, Italy
Q: There is a wonderful small family run hotel on Capri called Villa Tosca, where my husband and I stay whenever we are there. On our recent visit we learned that the beautiful pine tree that sits right outside the front door of the hotel had recently had one of it's diseased limbs removed. Because of this sap was leaking from where it had once been attached. No matter what they tried to do, it continued to drip sap onto the path, and often the people below. At a loss they asked me if I ask the tree what they needed to do to make it stop. This was what the Pine Tree told them...
A: When ones in your society loose a limb do the not bleed, do they not suffer the loss, awaiting time to heal. Thus it is so in our world as well. Like those that live in yours we also suffer such losses. Even though as we know this must happen eventually (because of disease in this case) that loss is still part of our being and is incurred (felt) in our world. Thus it takes time to heal, both physically and mentally not only in your lives, but in ours as well. Patience is not something that suits your world but should be acknowledged. All things take time to heal and accepting this, and what Nature brings, you should accept this and move on. The sap, as you call it, will cease only when the time of healing is complete... understand? So it is so.

Q: Elizabeth asks...The Bristlestone Pine Trees near Bishop California must have so much wisdom that I
long to hear. Do these trees wish to tell me a message that will help my soul
to heal and maybe the souls of others to heal too?
As in life all have a purpose and a reason for existing. Though we
appear old, we are not, at least when one appoints our being to those of other
Spirits of Nature (The Stones being an example). We have seen much in our
existence. The sheer age, and the example we represent, brings an awareness
which prompts many to examine the Beings
(persons) that they have become, just as Nature does as a whole.
You see every Being, be it you, the bees that bring
about the changes for one such as we to exist, or even the stones that lie
along the road, have a purpose. Each is here to learn and impart those lessons
to others in a way that is conducive to their species. As a human you do this
through kindness or work or family, growing in your spiritual awareness by the acts
and lessons a crewed over the years. We as Nature Spirits do this in other
ways. This does not make what or how we do this any less important.
Sometimes it is the beauty of inspiration when one sees us that
encourages others, while others (Nature Spirits) produce food or are needed to
support this planet in various ways. All have a purpose and accept this as
their way of growth. Thus it is and should be accepted and acknowledged as
such.
Some say that Nature is harsh and
ever changing, and this so. But this is needed to continue to support this
planet so you as a species can grow, not only physically but spiritually. Like
the summer, a gift of
beauty…flowering tress and summer fruit, or the winters abundance of
snow and nutrients needed for the spirits that wait for their new beginnings
deep within the earth, each are blessed with a certain path they must follow to
move ahead. Like Nature, you are also blessed with this same goals lifetime
after lifetime, accepting the challenges that will lead you further towards the
spiritual growth needed to move on.
Thus it is that though we seem
old, and to some withered and in distress, those of you that see us through the
eyes of wisdom understand that we offer you not only the gift of beauty, but the
grace in growing older. If lucky this will lead you to the eventual answer that
all things and Beings are a gift, and
each must be taken as such.
Life is what you make of it, each
experience bringing with it the means to grow. And so it is that we offer you
that as well…
the vision that although one becomes older, they can exist in a beauty
that only comes from the experiences given and learned though each lifetime. Go
in peace. Life is a renewal and all things become again.
We
are the Bristlestone Trees, and here we will remain until we become what is
needed to begin again.

Q:
I have a question for you...my girlfriend has an Elm tree growing in the
backyard that has root shoots coming up all over the concrete patio and garden
soil areas. The tree is in a neighbor's yard and its roots have been dominating
the area (many backyards) for many years. Is there any way we can communicate
with this Elm to change this problem without having it cut down? Thank you for
any feedback you can offer. The tree is located in Emeryville California. Thanks, Paul
A:
Life is a process of growth and like you I must grow. I do not intend to harm
others only to spread myself the best way possible to attain what I need to
survive. If I did not then I would not grow but remain the same.
Q:
Is it possible for you to remain the same if some of your roots are cut back?
A:
If one looses a limb then one survives in your world, is that not so? Thus it
is the same in ours. We also have limbs but unlike you we also have roots,
being tethered to the ground now that our time of roving has ceased. Like all
plants our roots can be trimmed but unlike those that are moved it in not
easily done to ones such as us. If one desires they may cut what is disturbing
as long as I am able to maintain my stance in the community. Do you understand?
Q:
So it is possible to cut the roots that travel to other peoples property
without killing you?
A:
Yes as long as my central structure is maintained and my main root stays in
tact. I will resent this non growth but if it is what is needed to move along
in my development then it is necessary, is it not?
Q:
Yes. Because if not then you will need to be cut down.
A:
All things live their given time, each giving what is needed to move ahead. If
my time of service has passed then I shall release myself and move on. The
great Mother that serves us all will delegate where and when this should be.
Service above all is the goal of Nature, as you have seen, and thus to be none
is not possible. If this is unclear or you do not wish for my help any longer
then you may release me from this world. If cutting back my existence is what
is called for then you may also do this. It is in the hands of the Mother. My
only desire is to serve. When that has passed then my purpose is fulfilled and
I too shall pass as well.
Q:
My friends do not want you to leave, they only want you to stop extending your
roots.
A:
All must grow and if not then they will cease to be. Do you understand? If you
cut my roots than I shall survive but only if I am still of use to those that
serve.
Q:
I will give this message to my friends. I thank you for your advice and know
that you will prosper if Mother Nature wishes it.
A:
And so it is.

What should I do with my garden?
Miranda’s Question: My garden in Novato, northern California, has poor clay soil and I've allowed it to grow rather wild, which the birds seem to like and I'm
wondering if the Nature Spirits like it that way too? I would like to
make it into a lovely garden, but don't know where to start. Should I
change the soil and irrigate so that I can grow the flowers I love, or
should I grow plants that are drought tolerant and like clay soil, or
just leave it as it is - wild and full of weeds? Are there Nature
Spirits in my garden in Novato and where are they and how would they
like me to help them?
Dearest Miranda,
There are many ways to go about this situation. What is it that you wish most? The Nature Spirits, as such, are open to many suggestions and thus will comply with most wishes. If you desire to let the garden be, then the Spirits will welcome it as such, for those places are sacred in their sight… though it is suggested that not all the space need me taken in such a way. Why not divide said space into two gardens, one for the Nature Spirits and one to accommodate your liking?
The Nature Spirits abide everywhere and so are always welcome to assist in what ever matter is most attended too.
As for the soil, this is easily alleviated with ash, coal dust or plant residue. Sulfur is not needed, but things such as limestone will aerate the soil and leave it healthier for most growing things.
There are many plants that tend towards hard soil and those that tolerate heat are among those suggested.
If one demands a garden of vegetables or flowers, one needs nourishment in the form of compost of straw, manure and other organic particles. Bees of course are necessity as are the birds which bring nourishment to the plants as well.
The unit (house) which sits on this property should be adjusted so that the windows face the garden. Thus the Nature Spirits can be more attuned to the family that lives within. If this is not possible then please make sure that the ones that occupy such a structure visit the garden daily.
Nature is alive everywhere and the choices of where to change, add to or take away is a decision that must be made with the greatest of care.
The suggestions are as given and the choice is yours. Call on your friends (the Elementals) whenever the need for Nature is there… whenever and wherever one calls we will avail ourselves.
We are the friends of The Great Mother who in which we trust. Go in peace and love for all living things. We trust that you will do what is best.
We remain Natures Children.

Why was there snow this weekend when fall isn't even over yet?
Nature changes as it evolves and thus in doing so others must adapt as well. Do not seek out the true meaning of this fact, but it is inevitable is it not? For even as you evolve to become something different, so must all of Nature. For the planet must change and these must be countered within the natural cycles, which are ever present in both Nature and other matters as well. The earth aligns with certain planetary factors, pushing and changing the orbit, the sanctions and other meaniful collations that must be dealt with.
As man changes so his body also adapts, his brain explaining, his limbs growing longer, stronger. So must the earth also adapt. Thus as time moves forward places that were once warm will become cooler and the opposite shall also become fact. Do you undertand?

My plant is burned, why?
Q: I have a flowering plant that stands about 6 feet high that one
side of it is suddenly badly burned. The side that is burned is about
three feet from a large ancient fir tree that was not affected. I have
been unable to discover the source of the burn, whether chemical or fire,
neither of which would be possible as I live in a relatively isolated
area and would know if anyone was on my property. Could you give me any
idea how this plant could have been damaged?
The sheer knowledge of energy does not reflect always in Natures account (favor). Seldom does this affect it as a whole but in this case it has. As the energy waves fluctuate, so do the rays which it emits. When things such as the plant mentioned is placed within range of these waves they can cause damage, which it has in this place. Energy waves are frequent in your world, as they are in ours, ever appearing when necessary to propagate the planet. Though they run concurrent within the earth’s core, at times they spike thus causing damage as (like) the bird event that began of late. These energy bursts are not affected to be of danger but are necessary to bring about the balance needed to align the earth with the concurrent energy of affecting duration. Thus when things are in their path it is affected.
How do I connect with Nature?
Q: I want to work with the gardening spirits in my garden. How do I connect with them?
It is indeed easy to connect with all of Nature, for it is always available to all that speak (to it). Nature, like ones such as you, relishes involvement, forever seeking a connection between both worlds. We suggest you find a place most favorable to you within the bounds of Nature. Relax and enjoy what is surrounding you, allowing the environment to alleviate any doubt one has about this situation. For Nature is giving and will bring about only relief and carefree wilds if permitted. Open ones self up to the senses, enjoying the sounds, the smells and the sights of such (Nature). Nature will welcome all by a kindly gesture; either a brief breeze, a slight fragrance or a tinkling sound. If one searches one will find that connection. Whether it be in the garden outside your door or a great National Park, Nature is alive and always ready to welcome all into her world.

Q: What about the recent volcanic eruption in Iceland?
Q: About the recent volcanic eruptions that are causing so much chaos; is this Mother Nature trying to tell us something or just a natural progression of Nature?
Times are relative and changes are made when they are needed. As in your world many things bring about changes needed to survive. Be it a change in your daily routine, diet or exercise, each are needed to maintain the self. Thus it is true in Nature's exactness as well.
When the Mother, as some see her, releases pent up energy it is not a ploy to bring about changes nor is it a sudden burst of inspiration given over to news media on her behalf. None the less taken in this vain it is indeed useful if not altogether false.
Mother Nature or Gaia at this point in the planets evolution has built up pressure which must be released in order to survive. This happens within ranges of time and thus is not readily understood. Many have felt this before in other lifetimes, civilizations and progressive occurrences and have adapted as well.
When this interferes with life as your species knows it one must always search for the reason. Yet the Mother herself is what is at stake and thus must vent in order to survive. This is fact. It shall continue until the internal pressure and the outside pressure equalizes.

Q: Do moving boulders exist?
Moving boulders exist, this is truth. All things generate movement, be it small or large. They exist not in a vacuum, so move with the concurrent flow of the earth.
There are many sighting of this by those that do not understand the significant of such. Many things that seem subtle are so only if those observing do so without the essence of knowledge.
In Colorado there are many references to this due to the high percentage of clear air. The reluctantly of the airs inductive reasoning will increase the velocity of every object because the incline of such is relative to the tapping of the energy expended in this action.
Therefore when things move (other then in events that are recorded by public knowledge; like earthquakes) it is not acknowledged as so.
Do you question that things are stagnant? This is untruth for even though something remains constant forever, it is indeed in a trans-migrational field and shall move ahead.
Is there a significant event that triggers these requests or do you relate now to the fact that these things exist in your mind but not so in the eyes of those that do not understand? Please clarify this request so that the factions can be relayed in a more formal analysis.
