INTRODUCTION

Welcome friends this is your host Tracy Shoolman with today’s episode of Gaia Translate.  I was guided to channel the Great  Spirit of the Pigeon eating lunch at an outdoor cafe when I became aware of a little pigeon hopping around on the ground by the tables.  I noticed the poor thing  had a piece of plastic entangled around his beak - I set about doing my best to sneak up on the little bird I hopes of removing the  plastic which was forcing his beak closed and yet try as I might he kept hopping away as soon as I got too close. The waitstaff saw my frustration and told me they had also been trying for a few days and had no luck in freeing this little being from the entanglement.

TRANSCRIPT

Great Spirit of the Pigeon: We greet you. We are that which has and holds the vibratory field of the avian species you call Pigeon. We are a member of the family of those who have and are also known as Dove. We have a long and interesting relationship with your clan, do we not, daughter? Have we not placed a few images to remind you of when we first knocked upon the door of your awareness? And in so doing, we would ask that you share them with those who have and receive the grace of our flow.

Channel: Greetings and welcome, Great Spirit of the Pigeon. I have and I perceive the sound of a pigeon, or maybe two, that had made a nest outside the window when I was in Venice, of where I was staying and much cooing that would take place.

Great Spirit of the Pigeon: That is accurate. And the other image? What do you recall?

Channel: I was sitting down at a restaurant, getting ready to order and there was a pigeon that was entangled. It kept hopping from place to place. It was like, unable ... it had something tangled around its beak, so it really couldn't eat, but it kept hopping, like, around the floor and it was outside, I should offer, so it was an outside cafe. When I saw it, I tried to go over to help it, but it was naturally skittish and would fly away to another part of the floor of where the restaurant was or onto another table. As much as I tried, I could not get it to allow me to help remove what was entangled. That was … I can't recall what it was, but it was something that was keeping it from actually being able to fully eat or drink, I think. And then the waiters and waitresses who worked there said that they had also been trying to help it and were also unable to get it held in their hands long enough to free it from ... I just can’t recall exactly what it was that was entangled.

Great Spirit of the Pigeon: We would offer and gently remind you it was a bit of plastic that had held, that which has or was this or that container. Perhaps there had been a bit of food, yes? And so, it entangled itself in its eagerness to consume what also remained.

Your intent was greatly appreciated. We offer you this outpicturing as we have to illustrate that there are many in the natural world who have and perceive there is a great entanglement that has and holds the will of those of your clan for what is required for their well-being to consume. And as such, we and others are stepping forward now to offer blessing of our goodwill and our intent to remove that which has and would allow your clan, and in truth, many others, to know themselves no longer entangled in what should they remain so would eventually lead to rather bleak outcome for their physical wellbeing, yes?

Channel: Thank you. Thank you, Spirit of the Pigeon. I hadn’t … it hadn't clicked for me.

Great Spirit of the Pigeon: We were not expecting it to. You were simply acting as a being who saw another being in distress. Yet that being was unable to fully understand the depth of your intent and goodwill, and therefore, what we would call a natural fear response of becoming that which would be the main course on the plate of your consumption simply sought to remove itself, to resist that which might be the threat of greater danger, yes?

Channel: Yes, thank you.

Great Spirit of the Pigeon: We feel you were a little frustrated and confused, and somewhat helpless, yes? And that is in truth how many of those who have and are in the natural world, your fellow companions, that which has and is the various species of life on this plane have and know themselves in a bit of a quandary. For are we not stepping forward, one and all, to reach out through you and others to offer the hand of our will in collaboration and in assistance, and in that which has and would be the gentle removing that has and is of that which binds your will and in truth, calls forth a greater and greater season of imbalance and of greater consequence as you remain in this statis of this entanglement, as it were.

We felt ourselves rather straightforward in this example as outpicturing, and while it has been a bit, we appreciate your willingness to call it back into that which is your mind's eye, where you may touch what you call your remembering, that point of interface where this gift of wisdom, this metaphor, was placed for your consumption.

We step forward as emissaries of sorts. There were times, and have and continue to be for that which is the dove, depending on your current iterations and the adaptations of the environs in which we find ourselves, the pigeons and various other expressions of our clan where we have and symbolize the light of spirit, of hope, of flight that has and is able to carry the heartplace of your clan upon its wings, into that which is the grace of blessing bestowed, of hope taken awing, and of the acknowledgment that there is that within you, and yes, within us, that is not so earthly bound that has and may lift itself above the fray of the confusion and distortions of this Earth plane.

To comprehend that which is the recent history of the relation of humans and pigeons in the Venetian area, in the square of Saint Mark's and in the entire village in truth, that which has and was an entertainment of sorts, that which has and served the well-being of our clan through the ample feeding of our bellies and that which was the entertainment and delight for many of that which has and is the ability to have that which holds wings, seek such close companionship as to land upon or to be held in the palm of a hand while receiving a bit of crumb of this or that of your making. Yet, there was that which has and called forth through this great feeding and encouragement, and welcoming of our expression into your living environs in this manner that has and knew itself in a tipping point of sorts, yes, where the increase in our population became a bit of nuisance caused that which was at first a joy to be that which was no longer sought after, and in truth, became a law, as we understand it, to no longer seek to encourage what has and no longer serves the wellbeing of those of your clan.

We offer ourselves as awkward, and yet serviceable metaphor for there are those pigeons of your habits, those pigeons of behaviors and relations you have with the natural world, where you feel you are feeding that which offers you enjoyment or delight and then the increase in this relation has and is no longer pleasurable as the consequence has and outweighs the benefit as you may perceive it. While you may have grown used to surrounding yourself with that which is the great flocks of certain behavior patterns, habits and aspects of great consumption and great creation of what we would call unconsumed waste of food stuff, of resource that has and would serve many.

We have and invite you to consider perhaps it is timely to no longer feed what has and does not serve you, to no longer hold the little joy of present engagement with the greater discomfort of a greater imbalance of relation. We have known ourselves as sacred. We have known ourselves as blessed as messengers of the divine, and we still are. We know ourselves now as that which is considered, if you will, undesirable or a public nuisance, or that which has and simply is an unwelcome member of the community of flow in your cities and in your densely populated areas where we have known ourselves able to adapt to that which in truth is the consumption of your discards. And in this we serve, much as those who are the rats and other vermin and other insect. For it is our nature to recycle through the consumption of what is discarded, such that it has and is not that which does not know itself able to be reinvited into the flow of exchange of energy in a serviceable manner.

While you no longer seek – at least those who have and visit the city of Venice – to feed us or others in a manner that was once quite popular, yet through the simple presence of your current habits of consumption and of discarding of that which you have and no longer seek to consume in that which is the corners, the gutters, the trash barrels, which we find most helpful, yes? We have and serve most willingly as a bit of a clean-up crew. While it is so, we may, through our process of digestion, soil a bit the area in which we have and reside. Yet, we still serve such that that which has and is not consumed those food stuffs that have and are discarded in great amounts in those areas of your cities and of places where many come and visit for a moment, a day, an hour, a week, or even a lifetime, and yet, have and are served far more than they could consume in a sitting, and often are not able or willing to claim and to consume what is left at another meal. It may not be possible, for they do not have adequate resource to store it if they are simply visiting, yet, there are many who do. Why does it matter that much has and is of consumable food product and stuff is not cast into those great pits you have and dig and combine the other non-organic, if you will, non-biodegradable, if you prefer, materials of your construct to simply this; that which you have and no longer seek to consume is well and good. To separate it out and to offer it a chance to be composted or consumed by other allows it and the energy it holds within to remain a part of this system of flow.

We are not suggesting that you have and create great piles of pizza crusts and leftover bits of pasta or whatever it is one has and consumes when one is such that those who are other members of life may fill their bellies without any limits to their egress and flow, rather if it is not us that you offer it back in gratitude to the breast of Gaia wherein many who have and reside within the soils, many who have and would know themselves able to be renewed through that which is the combining of another form, much as that slice of pizza you have and consume. All that you have and place within your belly is now invited, is it not, to become a part of your physical form. That which does not serve is released, and that is how the flow is, yes?

And so, in this we would offer that a great and enthusiastic shift in the manner in which you have and feed the pigeons of behavior patterns, of habits of consumption and discharge or creation of great mounds of waste product as you perceive it, and yet some has and is not required to be held in this statis where it cannot be reknown anew.

There are many aspects of our metaphor that we have and step forward with, yes? One is that which is the cooing, the singing of our voice in which we have and acknowledge that we are one. However we may know ourselves in our community or relation, be it that which is and offers great delight and companionship, be it that which simply serves the Gaia’s intent and requirement to consume whatever we may that has and finds itself laying across the stones, the streets, the sidewalks, and in the gutters, that which has and is recyclable organic matter that you understand as your food and other, and we have and consume it. And in this manner, we offer it the opportunity to know itself anew.

We feel even if all have and quite efficiently shift their great patterns of creation and consumption and tossing away, if you will, into your trash that which is the great amount of food stuff that goes to waste, as it were. We do not speak because you have not sought to consume it all. We speak rathe that you have and place it where it can no longer be consumed and to know it so, a continuing part and in service to the flow, and further.

We have observed and would gently offer your clan has and knows itself in a time for many of great availability of resource, and as such it is so easy, we feel, so convenient to gather great armloads of food stuff, place it in your refrigeration or on your countertops within your homes. And there is so very much that much that much has and simply turns the corner of its fullness and freshness, and in truth the greatest measure of vitality of its energetic resource in service to your own well-being in flow. And then it has and withers, or turns, and is no longer able to hold itself in that point in its flow that would offer you the opportunity to consume it, that which you understand as its peak of ripeness, of freshness, and of vitality. And in this, we would gently offer, it is useful to consider that one has and perhaps looks into the pantry or the refrigerator or the countertop and shop there before you seek to bring home another armful of foodstuff when there is that which has and may wither in plain sight, for you have and do not seek what we would call efficient consumption, discerning consumption, an acquisition of that which has and may serve far more should it’s distribution be offered to a greater number of your clan and others whose bellies may rumble, although they may not express it so.

We do not seek to get into the ins and outs of your cultural relations with each other, although we also do not seek to watch you struggle and be unaware that the hands of our willing intent have and reach out and in our small manner seek to remove that which has and entangles you, and that which has and holds the ease of flow of your will in a manner that does not allow you to consume the meal of your requirement in this great season of shifting flow.

We do not feel that our wellbeing is much challenged as long as you have and continues in the ways of your own behavior patterns. We do not mean to insult; we mean to offer that which is the blessing of attunement and of the grace of gently removing that which holds you in statis, yes, such that you are able to fully consume that which has and would feed the growling bellies of requirement that each and all of you have and are listening to within your own heart with greater and greater hunger for that which would be the full belly of right relation with your own physical environ, the manners in which you have and are in relation with consumption, and with that which is the return of materials that have in some way no longer suit you or serve you as you had sought them to.

We have and step forward with that which has and may feel as one pointing the finger of blame or of shame, and it is not that we seek to serve in any manner. We seek to offer you blessing of that which is the freeing of what has and entangles the will of your hearts, the resistance of that which is required, however you may shy away, however you may consider it unnecessary, or that which might cause you harm, discomfort, or unpleasantness.

And so, we offer that which is the example of this little messenger of ours who has and did not understand that the intent of those who have and were the employees of that little outdoor café that you had and sat in, and your own intent was to assist in the removal of that which has and was hampering the wellbeing and the possible continuance of that little one’s flow. You wonder what has and happened to the little pigeon, and we would suggest it was unwilling to allow itself to be placed in what it felt might be a less pleasant possibility, as it did not understand that without it, it would have no more continuance of flow.

And so, it is a little lesson we accept that it was a challenge, for there are many eons of instinct, yes, that have and flow in the knowing of this little being’s heart. And yet, there were also many seasons of great companionship and joy-filled exchange, those of that land mass you call Venice, and those of clan of pigeon, of rock dove, or whatever else you have and would label us with in your understanding of our flow.

To claim that which is the mantle of one’s pigeon nature is to claim that which has and is most industrious in the consuming of available resource without the intent to create and to cast aside that which has and is, if you will, what we have and do not prefer to consume, and to know ourselves well-blessed, to have and, yes, eat the crumbs from your table, to have and know ourselves that which has and is able to adapt to the conditions and the requirements that each iteration of current manifest expression within your clan has and presents itself.

You may not seek to hold the mantle of the vibratory coherence of that which has and is pigeon, for you have less than sterling connotations of late. And yet, we are not so different. Your clan also flocks in great number to these small and densely populated environs of cities. Where there is great potential, there is also great waste and in truth, great lack. The timely redistribution and return of that which has and is able to know itself as food, as fuel, as part of that which has and is designed to feed many beyond your clan through its natural processes of reclamation with other members of the community of life in flow. Yes, the composting, yes, the prudent consumption of existing resource prior to the seeking of that which would be the claiming of additional resource when what has and is within your cabinets and cupboards on your countertops and in your refrigerations has and rots a bit, has and remains uneaten, as it was yesterday’s dinner, and so forth. And if you do not choose to consume what has and is within your arm’s reach as it were, to offer the blessing of those other members of life you understand as your fruits and vegetables and any other food stuff you may consume into that which is a place where they can be and continue in their flow. That which is the composting and the separating out of what has and is unable to know itself through your own creation as that which may know itself reborn, reclaimed, and offered the grace of continuance of energetic flow. It will not hold the same form, and yet that may not be how it is and is the nature of all in flow. To know themselves in the full relation of the constant exchange of the energy that has and is the physical form that we have and are blessed to know ourselves offered in this beautiful plane that has and is of interconnected flow.

Do not forget that to claim one’s pigeon nature is to claim that which through its nature is able to lift itself and to fly, and to be carried upon its wings to that which is a place unbound by the limitations of feet on the ground, or head in the hands, or heart weighed down by the gravity that has and is despair or hopelessness, or denial. There is a reason that those who have and are known as dove have and fly, have and symbolize as they hold the vibration and we are of this clan, yes, of hope, of ascension, of grace, and of that which is the eternal connection with that part of yourselves that has and knows how to fly. To call this to yourselves may be quite useful now, so we offer it to you. We do not doubt, know in our hearts that there are many of you, and more with each dawn who have and awaken to that which is the requirement to no longer feed the pigeons of what no longer serves their need state or the greater wellbeing of your environ. And in the same attunement to claim those aspects of one’s pigeon nature that has and flies, that has and serves to consume that which is available resource that others have cast aside.

We are not suggesting you consume the waste or trash of another. Rather that you conserve and honor the blessing of that which has and is offering itself to you and would seek and prefer to be able to be in continuance as a part of your field in physical form and in service to your requirements for energy, yes? And if that is not to be to have the blessing of continuance in service to the consumption or the breaking down of component elements by other members of life who have and would be most pleased to serve as their nature is designed in the reclamation of that which is the material plane and the energy that has and is held within it.

These are the blessings of attunement and wisdom we have served, and we have and we listen and we sing. When you have and hear the cooing of the pigeon, we invite you to hear a song of gratitude that has and is sung from our heartplace for that which is the opportunity afforded to us to know ourselves in companionship and as able servants to the requirements of that which is the cycling of the energies of what you understand as the natural world in flow.

It is rather these little wisdoms, gifts of attunement, and invitations to claiming the power of one who has and is able to lift the wings of their will in great flight and in service to that which is the greater good of all.

It is complete. We have and would take our leave, as you are willing to serve it.

Channel: Thank you, Great Spirit of the Pigeon. I am most grateful for your wisdom and your light.

Great Spirit of the Pigeon: You are welcome, daughter. In this, there is ample as feast for all. We take our leave.
