INTRODUCTION

A warm welcome friends this is your host Tracy Shoolman and I am  so grateful you could join us as we receive  the blessing of high wisdom from the Great Spirit of the Elephant. My awareness was drawn to the Great Spirit of the Elephant  after reading a Washington Post news story with the following headline: “Intensive ivory poaching has been linked to the increase of tuskless elephants in Mozambique, and the elephants have likely adapted to survive, a new study published Thursday by the journal Science found.”  I felt as if the wind had been knocked out of me and knew it was time to channel the Great Spirit of the Elephant.

The Great Spirit of the Elephant

Introduction: If you have ever wondered what it would be like to understand the thoughts and feelings of nature, welcome to the Gaia Translate podcast. My name is Tracy Shoolman, and I am a nature mystic, a sound healer and a channel. The Gaia Translate Podcast offers you direct access to channeled conversations with the sentient beings and spirits of the natural world. They are most grateful and excited to reach out to our human family and seek to know themselves held in the light of awareness and respect. Access to the transcript for this episode’s channeling is available at Gaia translate.com.  

Welcome, friends. This is your host, Tracy Shoolman and this episode of Gaia Translate brings blessings of high wisdom from the Great Spirit of the Elephant. My awareness was first drawn to the Great Spirit of the Elephant when I read a Washington Post news story with the following headline, “Intensive Ivory Poaching Has Been Linked to the Increase of Tuskless Elephants in Mozambique.” Seriously? Yikes! A transcript and a link to the story are available in the show notes for this episode at Gaiatranslate.com. 

Great Spirit of the Elephant: Greetings, daughter. We are that what has and vibrates as The Great Spirit of the Elephant, and we have sought your awareness through several knocks upon the door of your will. We appreciate your willingness to receive a second helping, as it were, of our wisdom. Perhaps it is that you will receive many more as we have and know ourselves at this particular point of our history, yes? 

Channel: Greetings and blessings, Great Spirit of the Elephant. I am always honored to be in receivership of your grace. 

Great Spirit of the Elephant: We feel that is accurate. We have and step forward to offer that which is our condolences of sorts. For we are aware there is a great deal of suffering that has and is upon those of your clan, daughter. There are many in parts of the geography of this planet that have and are facing the great season of starvation, of lack of resource, of inadequate essentials for that which is the wellbeing, nourishment, and in some cases the very ability to exist in this plane. 

We acknowledge along with many other species that we have and grieve mightily at that which is the passing of many who have companioned us for thousands of years, as you would count them. This does not deny our own grief for ourselves. For we too stand at the precipice of the great cliff of endings in one manner or another. We are wise beyond that which is the limited perception of your clan, daughter. While you have – as a species we speak – become somewhat attuned to our great wisdoms, yet there is rather a distance to span yet, such that you have and may fully align yourselves with what has and is our great learning, and therefore that which may be our great gift as we would and are willing to bestow it upon you. 

We do not seek to hide what we are aware of. We seek to share it, and so we have chosen this more direct path in service to that which is a timely delivery of some of what we have and hold within our heart. We have our ways, as you have yours. We do not deny you your ways. We would simply observe that perhaps some of the choices your species is making on its own behalf and that of all other life in this plane are not in attunement, what we would call the highest discernment of right action. Of course, that all depends, yes, on what one’s intent is. If your intent is to continue the systematic deconstruction of this remarkable flow of interrelated life and in form in this plane, then we would encourage you to continue and not to shift any of your behaviors. For you are most efficient at these particular choosings that you have made. Perhaps you might consider another path, for there is always that possibility of such. We feel it is perhaps efficacious for you to honor that which is the need state of your own brothers and sisters – we speak of other members of the human collective – who have and struggle, much as many do. And yet, there is a sense of otherness, much as a lingering fragrance that is and remains between you. This does not serve. You have never been, nor have any other than that which is a component of this great organism that has and knew itself so exquisitely balanced in the flow of its – of her, the Gaia’s – will and willing intent. 

We would invite those of your clan to consider a great reunion. We feel it is essential to begin with one’s own family as it were, and we appreciate that it is often times more challenging to find an agreeable method of relation with your own family members than it is with those who are not as closely related. And yet, this is a great distortion that has and cripples you as a species, and we are aware that there are those of your clan. daughter, many of them. In fact, the great majority therein who have turned in their higher aspect and turn this lifetime selves towards that which is the light of expansion, of evolution, and of rebalancing of your will, such that you have and may know yourselves no longer bound by your own resistance, your own confusions, your distortion of otherness. 

We are aware that there are varying tribes and clans, varying cultures, and entire civilizations that have come and gone. Yet, whilst one, and we speak of ourselves as a species, may turn a bit aside and politely choose not to acknowledge the squabbling between other members of a group. We feel this is no longer useful. We would offer that it is timely to offer the blessing of our intervention of sorts. We cannot require of you what you hold within your heart. We simply seek to offer that it is a great wound that you serve to yourselves when you have and embrace what is the otherness of fellow members of your species as that which in some manner denies them their grace, denies them their light, denies them their alignment. You can deny and turn as much as you would like, and yet we would offer if you were to have and look at a picture, an image, or perhaps even the physical presence of one such as ourselves, that which is an elephant in our physical expression, we feel you would not be confused and think of us as another species all together had you ever known yourselves made aware of what an elephant is. 

And so, we observe it is the same with us as we have and feel the vibratory field of your own expression as human, as we have and observe your animosity towards one another. We do not sense that this is pervasive within the species as a whole, rather it has deep pockets here and there. And it is that which you have grown habituated to and it serves those who seek to consume the discharge of your own fear and discord. It is much to their liking and serves their need state well. 

We would invite you when you have and perceive any other member, whatever their shading may be, whatever their variation of their fur, their hair, their skin, their size, their wit or wisdom that you understand this is simply another member of your clan, and it is a beautiful and blessed attunement to open the hearts of your will, brothers and sisters, in the full and tender embrace of those of your own family, your own clan. They may not reside within your immediate environs, much as the blood that flows through the veins moves about. It does not deny its blood nature. It does not refute because it happens to be passing through the heart, that which it is, nor does it deny it. When it has and is flowing in and through the conduits of your arteries and veins to various extremities, such as the toe, the head, the spine, and so forth, you may desperately seek to consider yourselves in some way superior, in some way more worthy, more deserving, and perhaps it is that which is self-serving in its manner. For is it not a less difficult leap to make when you have and feel that you are in a righteous place, a justified place. When you have and seek to hold for your own consumption or use, that which has and may shared willingly with those who are also members of your clan. 

We are not suggesting that you all throw away those various objects, the constructs that you have been so guided to desire and to perceive yourselves as unable to live without. We are simply offering to introduce you again to your brothers, your fellow humans, your species. We do not deny that there are some members of your tribe who many may prefer not to know as relative, and yet this does not deny it. It simply is as it is. 

It is timely, as you are willing to embrace it, to acknowledge that not only are all members of the human species of one great family, yet all life, however unusual it may appear is also of one family. What has and wounds any, has and wounds all. What has and seeks to keep from any, has and is held from all. And that which has and contaminates the very air, the very water, the soil of any has and contaminates the air, the water, and the soil of all. We feel this is becoming more clear. There is no separation. This is not such a large planet that when one has and discharges a sufficient amount of toxin in whatever form, it will not be carried upon the currents of redistribution which this plane is so apt about. It is the way of the flow, is it not? 

We acknowledge that which is the grief of our heartplace at the great decimation of so much that has been so beautifully crafted of so many who simply seek to be offered the blessing of allowance for their own continuance, in and out of your own species, yes? And we too have and would step forward as a species. We feel you do not hold great ill will towards us, although there is that situation where you would seek to kill us for our tusks. And we do acknowledge that there are many of your clan now who seek to place the hand of their will upon that which is the diminishment of this slaughter of our expression. And that is appreciated. We do not offer that from a place of a facetious comment or one meant to insult, but a place of deep gratitude, for we feel it comes from the heart. 

We further acknowledge that as your species – and we have touched upon this in prior discourse – has and claims greater and greater swaths of the land mass for your own use and that which is the exclusion of others. You have and may feel yourselves in more and more proximity to those other members of life, those other species, such as our own, who have and are required to, as you would perceive it, trespass or to claim resource that once was fully available, that now remains behind these artificial barriers that you construct so willingly. 

We would seek to imbue upon you the blessing of that which is our elephant nature, one who has a long memory. While it is rumored so, it is accurate. We speak of the memory of our genetics, and we are a deep and broad river of memory. As we would offer, so are you, when you claim it. We further would offer that which is the blessing of our elephant nature as that which has and respects the members of our family. We may not all seek to cohabitate. We may have our little tiffs or disagreements, yet there is not a point where we are not in full acknowledgement and respect that all who have and vibrate with the frequency of that which you understand as elephant are anything other than relations. 

To step forward into that which is the light of your potential is to first acknowledge your own relations as that which holds as much worth, as much of your own nature, and therefore from the perspective of all we are as participatory organisms in the greater flow of life in this plane. As you may perceive it, a red blood cell within you and another and another all serve the same, as you have and are aware. We understand that there are at times physical distortions that create an imbalance in this expression, and we would offer we would put that gently to the side as we encourage you to, for we speak of the species in general. And as such, you all are that which simply is held within the flow of your own expression. You are human in your nature, and we feel there are some who are ashamed. We feel there are some who would deny that there is no difference between one or the other. This is simply a distortion.  

If you have and rest yourself in an outfit that was tinted in the color yellow, all that you would embody yourself with, adorn yourself with, is yellow. Your hat, your shirt, your trousers or skirt, your socks, and your foot coverings, all dyed or tinted in a lovely yellow. And one of your neighbors was always wearing yellow, we feel you would still consider that they would be somehow foreign should you then seek to change your outfit and place upon yourself that which is a hat of pink, a shirt of pink, pants or a dress of pink, socks of pink, and foot coverings of pink. You would understand yourself as not now a different being, but rather one who simply seeks to be dressed in a different color for the time being.  

While it may be a challenge to perceive that as you have and are embodied in this lifetime, you have simply sought to take out of the wardrobe one or another outfit or skin tone, one or another cultural accoutrement, one or another physical structure and so forth. And all of these, while they offer from our perspective miniscule, or perhaps not even observable variations, appear to be quite striking to those of your species. However you may perceive the other, all who have and vibrate with the nature of human have and are human. All who have and vibrate with the nature and the physical form of elephant, or whatever you may call it, have and are elephant. 

Yes, yes. We acknowledge we have some variation and there are some subspecies. And yet, we are all that which carries the vibratory field of what you perceive as elephant. And we would observe, so too do you carry the vibratory field of human, however your physical expression and all else is simply decoration, yes? 

We would invite you to further claim the mantle of your elephant nature as one that has and reveres the family, as one that has and honors the elder, as one that has and holds oneself with an open and compassionate heart. It may appear to you that we do not carry these variations in our feelings, our emotions as you have and would deny us our awareness – not all, yet some. Because we do not use typically the language or the physical tools to express it that you are imbued with, it is a great illusion that you have chosen to cling to rather stubbornly that we are not intelligent, that we are not wise, that we do not have quite sophisticated relations and societies, our own belief systems, and our own constructs of what has and holds deep meaning to us in relation with each other, in relation with all other, and in relation with the land, the Gaia, yes? 

In this, we invite you and encourage you as you are willing to open the hands of your heart and to receive the great blessing, that which is the mantle of your elephant nature, one who is able to embrace and to don that which is your deep remembering of your unified origins of your deep and profound relation with one another of your acknowledgement of a greater relation with all expressions of life in form in this plane. 

You may find yourselves most pleased to feel that there are many, many, many life forms who simply wait to embrace you with open arms of their heart, and to grasp you in a loving embrace that has and acknowledge one who was lost, one who has wandered for many seasons in the shadow of confusion, as you have and step gently and willingly into the light of that which is truth without distortion, that which has and does not deny the unique light that is held within each and all of you, rather it acknowledges it as it also acknowledges what you have and are in relation to one another. 

We have and finally would confer upon you the aspect of our elephant nature that has and holds the greatest respect and compassion for all of life in flow in this plane. We may not seek to have an intimate relationship with those who simply see us as a meal, or at least, those of our offspring. As such, when they are able or perceive themselves so to claim, we simply seek and are and would bless you with the conference of your elephant nature as one who has and rests fully into all that you are, who has and holds deep respect for your fellow tribes … tribes and clans, however distant they may be, however unique that which is the patterns of their cultural variations, their belief systems, their preferences, and their physical outpicturing. All of these things, all of these vibrations cannot, nor ever could, erase the core nature of what you are and always have been, that of human. 

It is simply a matter of willingly releasing your fear of the other, your fear of that which does not appear easily recognizable to you as yourself, your fear, that otherness that which in its own expression would seek to harm or wound you. That is a great delusion and one we are willing to wash off, again and again, from the field of your awareness, brothers and sisters. You are and can be beautiful, beautiful song of vibration in your collective awareness and your individuate expressions. And we simply invite you to claim that which is your birthright, that which is your vibratory attunement. For as much as you may seek to hold at arm’s length, as it were, any other member of the human species, it matters not. You have and vibrate as human, and that is as it is. 

If we were to suggest that once you have and master this hurdle that you have set up for yourselves in your long [sigh], long habituated patternings, you will find yourselves in a place of joy-filled gratitude for that which is your greater family, as all have and lift the throats of their will in a mighty song of jubilee, in a mighty song of gratitude, in a mighty song of realignment, and of grace. 

It is and there is a practical point to this efficient claiming of your unified field as human, and that is simply that which has and bears down upon you and all who have and are in form in life in this plane, the great shifting that you have called and called upon yourselves and all others, that of the shifting of the climate, that of the polluting and the tainting of all that is required for our continuance – we speak of all – not simply of one or another clan, has and is in the process of tipping over the apple cart in a manner where there will be none, or few that remain. 

Is it not wise, as you are willing, to offer a prayer of profound gratitude for the blessing of your timely attunement, the claiming and wearing of your elephant nature, such that you have and are able to hold fully open the eyes of your heart, that you have and are fully able to hear with the ears of your heart as you have and are fully able to embrace in great and powerful reunion your own reattunement as a member of a mighty clan and tribe, one that is only ever has been of that which is the human species. We acknowledge there are some who vibrate at great variety in terms of your own personal level of vibratory attunement. One that is, we offer, in constant shift and change, as you within yourself have and align and align again your own intent and that which you have and sing into being, or manifestation, if you prefer through your heart. 

There are those who will embrace this with great gratitude, and to you, we are most grateful. There are those who will dismiss this as they have and are yet unable or unwilling to stand and lift themselves up from the floor of their fears and delusions. It is the way, and yet, we perceive that there is a majority of your species now who is most eager and most welcoming, and holds a mighty and open heart. And this fills us with great joy, such that we know ourselves not fully dropped into the vat of despair. 

It is this blessing, the blessing of the full claiming and attunement of one’s elephant nature that we had sought to bring forth at this point in our mutual awareness and our mutual cohabitation in this particular plane of existence, yes? 

Channel: Thank you, Great Spirit of the Elephant. Thank you for your wisdom. Thank you for your grace. Thank you for your light. I am in honored receivership therein. 

Great Spirit of the Elephant: It is complete, daughter. We serve the blessings of our light upon you, each and all, and we further acknowledge the deep pain and grief of our hearts as we bear witness to the wounding of your own species, to the pain that has and is being called forth by those of your clan through that which is the action, the intention of other members of said clan, yes? 

Channel: Thank you, and blessings be, Great Spirit of the Elephant. 

Great Spirit of the Elephant: It is complete, daughter, and you are welcome. We have and take our leave.
