Hildegard de Bingen was a mystical polymath, and a rare woman who ticks a lot of relatable boxes for just about every woman. She considered herself a simple, uneducated woman who spent most of her life battling illness and at times had to be carried room to room because she was so weak. She was also a woman living in an age where women were not highly considered, rarely educated and not allowed to teach new doctrine or even speak in a church. She was no stranger to dependency, weakness or being marginalized. She intimately knew what it was to suffer. Yet in her life, she founded her own abbey, created her own language, and wrote one of the first musical plays. She wrote nine books, seventy poems, seventy-two songs, and a play. She was an abbess, healer, writer, musician, visionary, counselor, preacher, linguist, naturalist, poet and an adviser to kings, bishops and princes. Her books are heavily referenced by scholars and theologians, and still in print.

And she didn’t even begin writing until the age of 43.

She was a true outlier, believing passionately in the power of both plants and gemstones to heal. She regularly had visions, She often used the feminine form “Sapienta Dei” which translates loosely as “God the Mother”. Yet, to read her work - to merely experience her presence in her words, her art, her music is to find a kindred spirit, a woman made of earth and salt. She celebrated her own wild spirit, often walking through Nature for hours and wearing her down - and encouraging other women to as well. She celebrated sexuality despite living a celebrate life, and the sensual aspect of spirituality in a time when the flesh was considered to be evil and an abomination - and especially for women.

She was not a confident woman despite her many successes in her own lifetime - and she tenaciously held to her faith to accomplish all that she did in spite of her circumstances, state of health or even just how she felt, and by that faith was unstoppable. She is what it is to push through the darkness, even when it seems to swallow you whole, and fiercely holding on to the faintest glimmer of light. And this is why I created her, and why I keep her image close.

She reminds me that hardship and challenges are more than just words, and may even seem insurmountable - but that we are called to deepen our faith and push through, despite whatever odds, despite how we may be feeling. She underscores that the real enemies are our doubt, hesitation and procrastination, and that every seeming failure is a lesson. Showing up and doing is what is critical.

In her I ask the question, am I doing all that I can to be of service in this moment? Is the center of my being rooted in love?

In this, I have depicted her as older, in her abbess attire, with her hair loose and flowing representing her wild, sensuous nature, communing with the Beloved and drawing her strength through faith despite her feelings. She is surrounded by spiritual helpers, in the form of birds, blooms and other things not immediately apparent to the naked eye. She is holding a mirror to reflect back my own hesitation or frustration of the moment, and reminding me of who and I really am. And she is illumined with a heavenly, goldenlight reminding me that I am never alone.

Despite my doubt. Despite my aching joints or brain fog, vanity, low mood or feeling engulfed by gloom or the darkness of the age. “Just be and do,” she murmurs sweetly through the ages.

“You are enough.
You are loved.
Be and do.”

Hypogeum In Malta: Underground Stone Chamber in the Gamma Range of 111 Hertz

111 Hz attunement deepens our awareness and wisdom.

The ancients used Sound to Heal. In Malta, at the oldest underground temple in the world there is a room called the Oracle Chamber designed to vibrate sound at 111 hertz which scientists now know kills Cancer Cells using the powers of the 11th harmonic.

The ancient scholars had a guarded secret regarding resonance, which is simply about the essence of harmonic resonance, where one body has the ability to vibrate in such a way that it can change the body of another. This Knowledge was hidden in stone temples, many of which are underground.

An archaeology researcher Linda Eneix, President of The Old Temples Study Foundation Foundation, made this comment:
“Standing in the Hypogeum is like being inside a giant bell…you feel the sound in your bones as much as you hear it with your ears. It’s really thrilling!”
She added that people who stood inside this temple became more Empathic, that their moods actually shifted due to this sonic impact.

Passing on a formulation for Mould Spray.

"People ask me, 'What can we have for rituals?' Well, what do you want to have a ritual for? You should have a ritual for your life. All a ritual does is concentrate your mind on the implications of what you are doing. For instance, the marriage ritual is a meditation on the step you are taking in learning to become a member of a duad, instead of one individual all alone. The ritual enables you to make the transit.

When eating a meal, realize what you are doing. Hunting peoples thank the animal for having given itself. They feel real gratitude. The main rituals of mature hunting tribes, like those of the Americas, were addressed to the animals. On the Northwest Coast, the principal rights were when the first wave of salmon came in, and they were intended to thank the salmon.

And so, sitting down to eat, realize what you are doing: you are eating a life that has been given so that you might live.

When I was working on the gospel of Sri Ramakrishna, I had a lot of meals with the monks. Their grace before meals is the most beautiful invocation. It goes like this: ‘Brahman is the cosmic, universal, life consciousness energy of which we are all manifestations. Brahman is the sacrifice. Brahman is the food that we are eating. Brahman is the consumer of the sacrifice. Brahman is the ladle that carries the sacrifice to the fire. Brahman is the process of the sacrifice. He who recognizes that all things are Brahman is on the way to realizing Brahman in himself.'

Every ritual is of that order, properly putting your mind in touch with what you are really doing. And so, we should realize that this event here and now: our coming together to help each other in the realization is a beautiful, beautiful ritual.”

"The voice you once thought lost
will return to you.
Do not be surprised when you realize
that her tone is deeper, richer, and a bit
wilder
than the voice you remembered.
She has traveled
through the belly of the underworld
and while you spent your nights
plotting escape from captivity
she seasoned
in the dark recesses of the earth."

~ Sarah La Rosa

Bodhisattva Prayer for Humanity

"May I be a guard for those who need protection
A guide for those on the path
A boat, a raft, a bridge for those who wish to cross the flood
May I be a lamp in the darkness
A resting place for the weary
A healing medicine for all who are sick
A vase of plenty, a tree of miracles
And for the boundless multitudes of living beings
May I bring sustenance and awakening
Enduring like the earth and sky
Until all beings are freed from sorrow
And all are awakened."

Written by Shantideva, a Buddhist monk of the Mahayana tradition who lived around 700 AD.

May we all see our inner light. Bless
