From My Core Rise All

The Ancient Forest Roots Revival

Once upon a dream, our Earth was clothed in ancient forest; the roots of giant trees intertwined as they drew from the inner waters and their crowns formed a canopy in the upper layers of the atmosphere.  Beneath the surface, the mycorrhizal network between the trees forms Nature’s underground intelligence network, through which the trees communicate in order to maintain the living conditions for all life on Earth.

We see the remains of these forests in the great living redwoods of the west coast of North America and in the giant stumps and mesa formations all over the world.  These are coming to our attention once again as it’s time to revive the ancient roots of the forest, our own ancient roots, the ‘woodwide web’ as named by German forester Peter Wohlleben, and regenerate our world.

As humans, we are an integral part of the regeneration of the new Earth.  This comes courtesy of our ability to over-ride instinctual and entrained programming, our free will, along with our creative imagination, as they operate through our mammalian bodies.  These physical bodies that we have this time around are exquisitely designed to enable us to engage in this regeneration. They give us our ordinary senses as well as the extra-sensory ability to ‘feel’ our connection with others and communicate in multiple ways, with empathy and compassion.  However, it’s our unique ability to imagine, to put this all together in the mind-field so that the Earth can bring it into physical reality, that is now most valuable.

Coming back to the trees.  90% of the Earth’s old growth forests have been cut down.  There is only 3% left in Europe, mostly in Poland and 4% in North America in isolated, disconnected islands and corridors.  They have been ‘replaced’, by plantations of conifers  in which glyphosate is used to kill off all weeds and shrubs in the understory, in order to maximise the yield of trees to be ‘harvested’ in 20-30 years. The UN FAO estimates that 10 million hectares of forest are cut down each year and 95% of loss is in the tropics, mostly Brazil and Indonesia.  15-30% of logging is illegal.  The rate of loss has declined over the past 30 years when reforestation is taken into account, but the old growth forests  are gone forever.

At the end of the last Ice Age, 11,700 years ago, according to official records, we stopped living as hunter-gatherers and began farming, chopping down the forests and domesticating the animals.  This went well enough, for a few thousand years, as nomads did not recognise the land as property to be owned and they worked only with hand-tools. Land was considered to be held ‘in common’ by the community, which allowed for ownership of your home and the fruits of your labour, your garden, orchard, vineyard etc. but we were free to roam and hunt Ownership and abundance led to trade and commerce and the concentration of power in those who had least connection with the land.  Conquest, slavery, corruption ensured, supported by the priests, lawyers and bankers, enforced by the military and Roman law.

In Spain, according to Diodorus Siculus (about 100 B.C.), the Southern provinces were densely wooded until about 200 B.C. the Romans first took possession.  Soon after, a great forest fire broke out in the Pyrenees that ran through the entire country and exposed  the deposits of silver ore.  This invited a large influx of miners, the cause of reckless deforestation of the country.  They are still working from the same play book.

By the middle ages, most common land and forests had been stolen from the people by dukes and princes who became monarchs and claimed jurisdiction over all the land.  So much had already been cut down by then that the ecosystem became unstable, leading to floods, famine and plague. This is when ‘forestry management’ first emerged. In Europe, 60% of the forests are privately owned and 40% state owned, with roughly the same breakdown in the US, where public ownership is divided between state and federal interests.  In practice, state or public ownership of the forests is no different to private ownership, as they are all managed as a resource for profit and lead to break-down of the life support systems of the Earth and mutually-assured destruction.

This is all part of a much older story. A little bear shared this video recently, in a timely re-introduction to our oldest story.

There’s no question that the Earth has endured many catastrophes and, as part of the Earth, we have too.  We are all still here; we are the trees and the rocks, the mountains, the animals, plants and insects, as evidenced in our shared DNA, which is nothing to do with a common ancestor and all about how the Earth creates form.  The good news is that we are not hurtling towards another catastrophe; we are, in fact, rapidly gaining traction in our regeneration since the last one.

Lucidity, from within the Earth and ourselves continues to intensify since the polar vortex reversal on the solar eclipse of April 8th 2024 and we are experiencing many breakthroughs. I’d anticipated that Interspecies telepathy would become easier as the result of the decreasing Earth magnetic field (see Lucid Skies) and the wonder, beauty and tenderness of how this is playing out is a rebirth in love and humility.

Looking into the primordial tree stumps and their ancient roots.  Their energy bodies still exist, in much the same way as people can still feel the pain of an amputated limb and we can still feel and communicate with these beings.  Anyone who feels so called can do this, to make these connections and stand-in for the ancient forest, so that it can regrow.

We know that the roots of trees, both of the same and different species intertwine; they share water and nutrients and exchange information biochemically and through light and sound.  The elder trees protect their young. An integral part of this root network are the fungi, some break down dead material for food and others reach out into the soil and bring nutrients directly to the roots. This is known as the mycorrhizal network – my-core-rise-all, and it forms the foundation for the community of the forest.  As well as the fungi, within the network are microbes, insects other plants and burrowing animals and beneath that, the primordial water domes.

All the large trees reach down to the water domes to maintain the life force energies, moisture conditions, temperature and stability of the forests.  Most of the structures of the empire of brutality were built on the remains of the ancient trees and their water domes.  The geometry and weight of these structures cut through many energy lines and caused enormous pressure and tension in the telluric currents, that then released into the linear grid structures of their empire.  Giving your loving attention to these water domes under any large trees, cathedrals or churches, helps the Earth move more easily.

This root network is not just the foundation for the community of the forest, it provides the model and the resonance for sharing and co-operation that we need to regenerate our human communities in alignment with Nature.  We must regenerate the root network in the invisible realms, so that it can grow strongly in the physical world.

As I felt into this issue, events began to unfold more rapidly then I could keep up with them.  First, we identified an attachment on the backs of dogs, cats and some people.  It went from about a third of the way down the tail, or below the coccyx towards the knees in people and up to just below the rib cage.  Then there was an arc, or a bow-shape that went from just below the point, arching about halfway down the ribs, like an umbrella.  This was a similar attachment to those we have seen in churches and cathedrals, that caused the Earth to be aware of the pain in her energy body, but not be able to do anything about it.  This worked the same way in the animal body, to feel the pain of digestive issues, hip problems, parasites, but the brain was blocked from receiving the information on which it could act.  This has now been dissolved and the animal bodies are into another stage of healing, they might be sleepy – we might feel sleepy – so if you notice that now, it’s healing.

The effect here was very strong in Tulku and Maia, one of our cats; she took the lead.  Nunki, a tiny kitten, joined us a couple of weeks ago.  Initially, Maia was indifferent towards him, as expected.  Then, a couple of days ago, she became aggressive towards him and Dean.  She is a very affectionate and playful cat and deeply bonded with Dean and she was terribly afraid.  Cats are very tuned into Earth energies and I saw what was in  her as a form of possession.  What was possessing her?

We assume that cats are territorial, because that’s what we’ve been told and that’s how their behaviour looks to us.  In the wild, we don’t take into account their loss of habitat, their hunger, that they are pushed to the very brink of survival.  We forget how our domestic cats are in resonance with all wild cats through the fractal antennas of their common DNA and their shared energy field.  It is not in our ordinary awareness to consider that what we have imprinted on the Earth affects them.

The word ‘territory’ comes from the Latin territorium, from terra, meaning ‘land’. It came into use to denote the district surrounding and under the jurisdiction of a town or city, specifically a Roman or provincial city.  When we use the word ‘territory’, and I’ve used it myself many times, we activate the Roman energy grid installations that exist as an overlay of the natural landscape.  This causes pain and contortion, as the life force energies are channeled into unnatural circuits and push up against imposed boundaries. The animals, especially the cats, feel it and it provokes them when they are already feeling stressed or afraid.  It is their natural behaviour to scent mark their homes, as a way of announcing their presence to other cats who would respect that boundary and move on.  In mating season things get heated up, but territoriality is as much an imposition on them as it was to our ancestors.  We’ve just got used to it.

As she regenerates, the Earth is moving, tremoring, popping out the spikes and armature of this installation. Like pins and needles, there is some pain as the blood, water and energy rushes to the parts that were previously choked off.  When I asked Maia to ‘show me’ the source of the problem, she went and sat on a folder that had photos of our house build and I located the Roman grid was buried under about 20M of mud – as it was in so many places.  Was the mud flood a solution, from the Earth’s perspective? Why does your cat like to sit in a square? He or she is showing you how they are trapped in a grid.  Maybe they won’t do that anymore.  The Earth is shaking out the Roman installations and reforming to her own design.

Maia was much calmer and relaxed after the dissolution of the Roman installation and is now looking at Nunki with curiosity, rather than outright hostility.  We don’t feel comfortable enough to leave them alone together yet though. Lila, our other cat, has noticed the change in energy.  She keeps coming in to look all over the floor, registering the changes.  We need to wait until Nature’s underground intelligence network hooks up the new circuitry before the situation is stable here.

The land experienced some pain here as the energy rushed back in.  Our feminine water dome and the vortex went down.  Tulku picked that up and began shaking uncontrollably.  I knew that the water dome needed to connect with the trees, but all the trees I tried around here didn’t do the trick.  I felt into the connection with Mother Pine in the woods, but it didn’t stick.  Then it came to me that it was my Mother Tree that I needed to connect with.  I didn’t know I had a Mother Tree, but it turns out that a cherry tree that my father grew from a seed as a boy, that was in the garden of the house I grew up in, was my Mother Tree.

Hundreds of cherry trees have sprouted here since we move in.  When I connected with my Mother Cherry and then imagined the energetic connection with all the cherry trees here, the water dome and vortex reset themselves with a ‘whumph’.  Bliss. Rainbow. Collapse. Then back in the spin cycle with heavy rain and thunderstorms that went on all night and the next day, a constant low rumble.

Curiously, even though it had rained solidly and heavily for 36 hours, (so far) there were no puddles or surface water, except for the end of the track that had been torn up by the loggers.  All the rain had been absorbed, which has never happened before as the land here is solid clay.  It looks as if the Roman installations were preventing absorption and I suspect that they have had the same affect on our physiology.  I’ve felt washed out and exhausted.  I’ve had a persistent headache and strangely sore across my abdomen these past few days, as if I’d been doing sit-ups. My coccyx feels bruised. I feel the electrical tension in my nervous system, pushing out the pins and wires of the Roman installations within my own mind-field and body and how my own microbiome is responding to new instructions.

After every surge of energy comes a purge and reconnection, regeneration. So many of us are doing this work – if you can call it that – in our own lives, in our own ways with the uniqueness of our experiences, skills and attention. Every act weaves seamlessly into the new chapter we are writing together for ourselves and the Earth.

If you don’t know what to do, but feel you must do something, if you are concerned about the state of the world, the forests specifically, or your own situation, or if you just want to engage more deeply and playfully with Nature, why not name and claim your Mother Tree?  Sit with her for a bit. You might surprise yourself. This can be a well-loved tree from childhood, a tree species or even a tree colony like the Quaking Aspen, or Willow.  These are individual trees sprouting from a single root system covering many miles.  The roots stems are much older than the trees, continuing to grow underground as the trees live and die – vestigial remains of the giants, I wonder?

The simple act of naming your Mother Tree initiates the Ancient Forest Roots Revival a loving connection, recognition is all that’s needed.  There is no right or wrong way, the act of looking will connect you to the tree and you decide on your own terms, to your own satisfaction if it is right for you or not. Nature does the rest, within the external landscape and the inner terrain.

As a footnote, do you remember the Rice Intention Experiment?  Cooked rice was sealed in three jars for a month.  One jar had LOVE written on it and was given love everyday.  Another jar was hated and the third was just ignored.  The hated rice went mouldy very quickly, nasty looking black fungus.  The loved rice stayed fresh-looking for the whole month.  The ignored rice produced a white fungus – was it reaching out for attention?

From the Earth, my core, rise all.
