The secret life of plants

[mudra]

Lightbeing we are all one dear.
Do not fear the dragonfly. Such a lovely creature



"Immortal amarant, a flower which once
In paradise, fast by the tree of life,
Began to bloom; but soon for man's offence
To heaven removed, where first it grew, there grows,
And flowers aloft, shading the fount of life,
And where the river of bliss through midst of heaven
Rolls o'er elysian flowers her amber stream:
With these that never fade the spirits elect
Bind their resplendent locks."

from Milton's lost paradise

Good morning, Mudra. It just shows we should tread lightly, watch where we step. What an amazing little creature.
Aloha, bushycat

Seashore the photos below are from a baby hedgehog

A hedgehog is any of the spiny mammals of the subfamily Erinaceinae and the order Erinaceomorpha. There are 16 species of hedgehog in five genera, found through parts of Europe, Asia, Africa, and New Zealand. There are no hedgehogs native to Australia, and no living species native to North America; those in New Zealand are introduced. Hedgehogs have changed little over the last 15 million years. Like many of the first mammals they have adapted to a nocturnal, insectivorous way of life. The name 'hedgehog' came into use around the year 1450, derived from the Middle English 'heyghoge', from 'heyg', 'hegge' = hedge, because it frequents hedgerows, and 'hoge', 'hogge' = hog, from its piglike snout. Other folk names include 'urchin', 'hedgepig' and 'furze-pig' .

such a beautiful thread, thank you all for sharing.

i work with flowers and plants on a daily basis. Each one has a story to tell...a character to discover and a destiny...when i go to the suppliers, i see a table full of plants...one ..or two..call to me...THEY tell me , that they want to be in my shop.

i am honored to share my life with these wonderful souls.

Your words are full of Love.

With Love for You

The first time I saw plants communicate was when I lived in Nairobi and while luxuriating under some palm trees after a good swim I was lazily looking up at the sky and branches and suddenly I realized that what I was looking at was a patterned motion that clearly told me these trees were communicating. I never forgot that.

Now my lovable cockerpoo ``beams`` me all the time and I am used to his thought beams.

There was a lovely petunia plant in my front yard and like a good Japanese gardener I dreadfully deadheaded it until finally it got the message across to me to stop doing that and I stopped and to my surprise the plant is still putting out blooms and still green at this time of year in Toronto, Canada.

Yesterday it finally told me that I could bring it inside and remove the seed pods and give it a good trim. I thought petunias are annuals, so I`m not sure why this petunia plant wanted me to bring it indoors....

Also I noticed something and hubby has witnessed it: I can stand in front of a plant that is even indoors where there is no breeze and somehow a wind starts blowing it when I focus on the plant and the leaves start moving.

I`ve hugged some trees before but never felt that return of love that a previous poster described -- must be wonderful.

cheers

Thank you for sharing your experience of communicating with plants Gnosis.
It is wonderfull to open one's heart to these sentient beings.
I have seen these patterns you describe in the branches too.
Once you become receptive nature's world brings so much perspective and insight.
It is rather impossible to feel alone while in nature ...

Love from me

G'day Mudra!

Even though I rejoice in all the life force in the Stream of Life, I am also now looking at it from an Exterior-to-Life vantage point. After many hours of guided looking I was finally able to break free from my attachment to my favorite "Game Lord" and thus the "Stream of Life".

In regards to this system here on earth I see that it is a degraded system for all the life expressions here, but they somehow can still be Life, which ever amazes me.


But seeing the corruption behind it is what helped me to make the decision to step outside the Stream of Life and still addressing it.

I'm not totally home free yet :-)

love,

Life just is ...Now the many ways we look at it give it some color or shades .
When we look for beauty it 's always there to be find .
Sometimes it 's hidden to our eyes but to the soul's heart there is always Light
to be shed in the darkest corners.

Love from me

I'm sometimes a veggitarian, but only when ever I hate plants. lol. Kidding.

Seriously though, I think that plants were like animals at one time and that they have evolved into who they are now because they are much closer to oneness than us.
