I know what you're thinking, Tarra, but I don't want to take it too far. Just stepping into the element and letting each sense really absorb the energy like a deep centering process and unity throught the Seven Sacred Directions. I'm thinking that once the elemental forces are taken in we can then move up and down through the worlds introducing the spiral as well. That will demonstrate the elemental forces in action through those perspectives too. Ya know?

It's just that everyone is so caught up in the visions they are losing sight of the element and side stepping that is not wise. I see it as a fundamental that does need to be understood or we'll end up missing a very critical link to Dancing period. I'll make sure I add a good release in the grounding section. It's the merging with the forces I want to emphasize and then the union with Spirit. Learning to read our senses when they quicken is so important and there's a definite need to learn the elements in that way too. IMHO

That's the purpose of this coming Dance. You'll gain that understanding. You see, so far everyone has been "looking" at things, seeing the Dance unfold and seeking to see their Guides or the dimensional landscapes. In that process they are overlooking the sensual reaction to the elemental forces themselves. I want to trigger your senses in this next Dance so you do *touch*, *feel*, *smell*, *hear*, and see what's taking place.

The overall plan I have is to introduce each element individually and merge with and into the next. This way you'll feel the cross-quarters too as you take one on and release it and then move ahead. The release in this case is not external however, it's internal...you tuck it aside in your sacred space and explore the next element. As you go you keep tucking until you get to the Middle World and unity takes place. There you *should* be standing in union with Spirit calling up the presence of the forces around you too. It's a sensual rather than visual Dance so I don't expect to be seeing visions or having Guides popping in on us.

My goal is to have you standing in each of the elements consumed by it and consuming it to the point of saturated understanding at a safe level. I don't want anyone losing breath, being burnt, drowning, or being smothered by the elemental forces. Those are real risks we can encounter and they need to be guarded against. That will come through our intent and the way we work.

Since the overwhelming majority here seem to be for this I'll be working on a guided exercise you can all look over first to keep you on track with this. Then when we come back from the Dance I'd like people to describe the aspects of each element they experienced in the Dance itself. It should be very insightful to all of us.

Once we're successful with this initial Dance it should be incorporated into all future Dances you do to have the full energy cycles working with you to enhance your results. It will serve to attune you to these forces in nature and the more you do this exercise the stronger your perceptions will become. In the future it will spill into the mundane sense and you'll *know* when an element is reaching for you in some fashion, how to focus on it and step out of the mundane momentarily to get that message, and what to do with it when you do. At least that's my goal here. We'll have to see how our results come back. It may take a few tries for some people and if that's the case that's fine too.

I was thinking the same thing.. all in a one shot deal. But you have to understand the way I took waht you said....Feeling an element means to really go deep inside it. I know when I did it with fire one, my body at the end of it had raised in temperature I'm sure and it was getting quite intense. In these matters I tend ot be a bit extremist and feel it full force if I can, atlest go as far as I can until I chicken out which happens regularly or one of my guides pulls me out.
But to answer you question, I'm game for it big time, it's going to be a needed reminder and a good refresher course for me

This is to enter each to saturation (as each person explores to their level of understanding) and then stepping out of that element into the next setting the prior one aside temporarily until the center point is achieved. Then we'll ground it immediately. This way the "overload" won't be a problem. We'll also get a lesson in stepping into Source Energy itself through the unification stage and channeling that energy too. So it should be a very good Dance for everyone and it may even trigger some freedom of old blockages that have held some of us back.

Sometimes we get preoccupied with what we'll see and we don't realize we are limiting our perspective. This way we'll see, touch, hear, smell, and taste the elemental forces in a way many have never experienced and an enlightenment will be had. I hope. *S*

See you there!

Lady Athena,

I'll be posting the directions to follow for this Dance prior to doing it. I'm working on them now but need more time. You can print them out if you want to and follow along that way rather than trying to stay logged on if you're having trouble.

Tarra,
Thank you for the Sweat Lodge Ceremony! It's always a blessing to have such generous offers from you. I'll be there!

No, the Dance will be on the Full Moon of the 18th. But in spiritual terms we're able to jump time so you can attend the Sweat that way. (Gotta think ahead! )
