Mother Earth provides you with a wonderful example of the capacity to produce abundant supplies. By showing you her rich harvests and lush landscapes, she constantly teaches you about the availability of abundance and shows you that fertility abounds in every realm.

Abundance often comes from a state of heart and mind alignment, through which you see the potential, the fullness available in each moment of life. Fertility can be found in ideas for new creations, sudden awareness’s or perceptions, and in your rich spiritual gifts.

Mother Earth also teaches you to create sustainable systems in all areas of life. You can learn to live in harmony with her and to replenish what you consume, thus ensuring that other people and other times will also experience abundance and fertility.

When you take from the earth with no regard for the ways she naturally replenishes her system, you step out of balance with Earth’s natural cycles, which can leave things stripped and void of life. However, your ability to work in harmony with the earth helps keep things lush and helps it vibrantly renew its energy.

This principle applies to your life, body, and resources. When you work in harmony with the element of Earth, you learn to replenish abundance rather than simply use it. This harmonic way of personally enjoying tremendous abundance adds to the greater good of all, instead of taking away from others and the planet. When you can accomplish this, you let the old system of competition fall away and learn the language and systems of cooperation. You live in and create balance with the natural environment and with yourself.

Five Tips to Engage Nature”s Abundance and Fertility Wisdom:

1. Connect to her feeling of Abundant Supply. Summer in the South brings a great opportunity as the flowers bloom and produce ripens to connect to the energy of abundance. Take sometime in your area of the world to go sit in the most lush environment possible, maybe even take a day trip to the botanical garden. Sit down right in the middle of the greatest number of blooming flowers you can find. Now intentionally connect with the feeling of abundance and deeply breathe in that essence. (If flowers are not available connect to the sun, or anything that is natural and in abundant supply.)
2. Focus on the feeling of abundance. Every chance you get focus on the feeling of abundance that you connected to sitting the middle of flowers (or your abundance item).
3. Give Thanks. Gratitude centers you in feels of abundance so give thanks. This feeling creates a fertile environment for more abundance to grow in your life. Create an abundant spirit by taking time often to show your appreciation and gratitude for even the tiniest of blessings in your life.
4. Allow for the cyclical flow of creational energy. Nature reminds you with the turning of the seasons that everything goes in cycles. The ground rests in the quiet of winter, followed by waking of spring, and the abundant blooms of summer, before harvest and falling away of autumn. If you allow for this understanding of abundance in times other than the growing and harvest you can be preparing your soil for the next growing cycle and trusting in the cycle of life.
5. Remember abundance and fertility are a state of mind and heart. What might seem like meager rations to one person can be tremendous abundance to another. Center your mind on appreciation for any fertile abundance around you and uplift your heart.

Remember to give your gratitude to Nature for her abundant and fertile supply and share as often as possible.

Many blessings, Lisa
