TRANSCRIPT

Great Spirit of the Baobab Tree:
We are that which has known ourselves honored and blessed to be designate as a guardian species. We have sought to serve the Mother well and we arrive at the hearth fire of your awareness, granddaughter, carrying the weight of deep grief within our hearts as an attendant companion to our awareness. We are that which is understood as the Great Spirit of the Baobab. There are other guardians, other deeply rooted and long-lived, from your perspective, members of life in this plane and they are and reside in different aspects of the geography as it has been so designed, yes?

We would empty the packets of the grief that we have carried with us and place it upon the altar of your awareness and that of your species. For we are not many, yet we have been known as mighty and we have served with an open and willing heart the need state of a great many of our fellow members of our communities with that which is our flesh and our example as those who have and are able to store for those points in the season when there is great lack, that which is adequate resource, water, such that we may know ourselves able to endure until the blessing of a fruitful season of flow has and is upon us again.

This has always been served in great measure in consistency of the flow of the shifting of the seasons, as it were, in this environment and yet of late we have perceived that which is not retreating. The tides of the seasons as we have understood them no longer flow in their accustomed advance and retreat, and therefore, our mighty capacity to preserve resource is taxed in great measure, for one cannot preserve what is never offered to begin with.

It would be a wounding to our heart to feel the loss of the awareness and the physical expression of members of our clan, for we are a tightly knit awareness, one that has and serves to engage and encourage each other as we stand in what may appear as our solitude and guardianship of our segments of the landmass and the life forms that have and would seek to continue to reside within them. We are unused to that which would claim the full life force of one such as us, so carefully designed to withstand extremes of flow that most cannot imagine, and yet those of our companions and your own, your own species and that of many other life forms in flow in this plane, have and experience the extinguishment of that which is the vital life force of some of our compatriots, as it were.

While it may appear to be a great stretch of clock time to you, our presence after several thousand of your years is not uncommon. The cessation of our presence through lack of adequate access to the required hydration is calling us to our own reclamation. The great grief that has and companions us is not simply that which is somewhat of a personal nature, grieving of those of our own clan. It is also, and in as great a measure, grieving of all who have come to understand us, to turn to us, to rely upon us as source of manna, of life, of nutrient, and of their own potential for physical expression in those geographies that we are known to inhabit.

To seek in one’s intent to continue to serve as we have done, and to find ourselves unable not only to serve the need state of our own requirement, but as that has and diminishes, we are inextricably linked to so many other members of our beloved communities that they, too, are unable to do other than to join us in that which is understood as the great storm of extinction that has and blows across this plane.

You may consider us more than a bellwether. You may consider us greater than the canary in the coal mine. For when that which has and is a guardian species is no longer able to be held in an embodied physical relation in this form, are you not wise, brothers and sisters, to receive that as the great clinging of the fire bell, the great warning that that which has and consumes our own flesh has already ignited and has and flows across this plane?

You are already aware that it is your species that has lit this fire, and now we turn to you, and we would respectfully ask that you use your great will and your intent to assist as you are able, and in whatever manner, to seek to dampen or put out a bit this mighty flame of imbalance in the climate of this plane. We are not one to completely turn away from the power of that which has and would seek to consume, for we know our own seeds of potential, finding a way with that which is the blessing of a certain amount of flame, of heat, and of the fires of flow, through which we may know our issue, our potential, being called forth in a new season of opportunity.

You may also perceive that while there is much that is being consumed and will continue to be so, that should you seek with great efficiency of your will and your intent to put out a bit the great conflagration of this mighty imbalance in this plane, there is much that has and may know itself the seeds of potential, of new ways of being in right relation with all that is the natural world that has and may serve many of your own species and all others. Much as the floods that used to be so prevalent at certain points in the cycle of the year might be known to carry away that which would know itself in a physical form and resident of this or that place of geography, so too the great floods of what you understand as the climate crisis have already begun and show no abating in the great washing away, not only of individual lifeforms, but of entire clans or species that they have and know themselves born of.

We step forward with the acknowledgement of those who have stood sentinel, if you will, for a great number of seasons from your accounting and have been worthy servants, guardians, and resource for those who would seek to know themselves part of the great tapestry of life in flow in this small dimension. We cannot do other than offer our grieving hearts up for acknowledgement at all that has already been and is being lost. And yet we have withstood much and we would turn with an open hand and seek to reach out to take your will, the hand of your will in our own, and together to sing a song of rebalancing and reunification, of reknowing that which can and is and has been a great collaboration of our wills in service to the continuation and even, yes, the flourishing of life in this plane.

We have and will listen with ears of our heart open for even the faintest whisper of a song of a willing alignment by those of your clan daughter. And we have and offer again and again prayer of profound gratitude for the most efficient and timely awakening of the greater heart place of the human awareness such that you have and join us in your place as steward of rather than as destroyer of the flow of life in this small dimension.

It is this song of our wounded heart that we have stepped forward to sing. It is not the song we would have chosen to sing. It is the song we are compelled to serve. And we are aware it may be one of the last songs that we are offered the opportunity to share with any member of the flow of life in this plane.

It is that we sought to offer daughter and we are grateful for your willingness to receive the heavy song of our heart. We have and would take our leave as there is no more to sing. We do not leave and walk along the path of total despair for we feel there is a great awakening in the heart place of your collective. We simply would seek to encourage it and to invite those who may consider themselves wealthy and that which is a resource of additional clock time in which to consider there has been a hole in your pocket for a while, my friends. It is timely to take action as you are willing to seal it up before all that you have and treasure has fallen out, yes?

Channel:
Thank you, Great Spirit of the Baobab tree. I have and acknowledge the profound grief of your heart and I hold it in my own.

I further have and am most willing to have and serve the song of your awareness into the heart place of all of my species. And I believe there are many who have and are most willing to embrace your hand and of your will with our own in a song of collaboration, rebalancing and reconstruction as it is and we are able of all that has and serves the flow of life in this plane.

Great Spirit of the Baobab:
We feel that, daughter, and we also acknowledge that there are many of your species who have and already reached the hands of their will with great and open-hearted intent to join with our own as together we have and may serve in a place of honor and joy-filled guardianship, preservation, and support of the great current of life that has and is the song of life embodied in this plane.

It is that we sought to serve and so we have and would take our leave as you have and are so willing to grant it.

Channel:
Blessings be Great Spirit of the Baobab.
