Happy Mother’s Day
By
Happy Mother’s Day to Mother Nature the feminine force of creation. She provides the food to feed your body and the beauty to feed your soul. Take time today to honor her essence and give thanks.
A simple way to do this is to create a blessing bundle called a despacho in Peru.
This is a beautiful tradition to thank and honor the Earth Mother, whom they call Pachamama. A despacho gives the energy of appreciation to uplift Mother Earth. You use some type of biodegradable wrapping and fill it with a variety of natural ingredients: sweet treats, cornmeal, tea, coca leaves, flowers, and the like. Say a prayer, give a blessing, or offer gratitude with each item you place in the bundle.
The important thing is the love and appreciation you infuse as you are creating the bundle. Give thanks for Mother Nature provides. Then tie up the bundle and bury or burn it as an expression of deep appreciation.
Notice how you feel after honoring the living giving force of Mother Earth.
Have a blessed day, LIsa
Thanks, Lisa. And Happy Mother Gaia’s Day to you, too!
Nice idea! I’m reading this too late to do it on Mother’s Day, but perhaps tomorrow!
