This week as I work on custom mixes for people and animals, I am struck by how important energy field hygiene is. Having our energy field clear of other people’s energy and understanding that our energy belongs to us is essential to our well being. Understanding energy field hygiene means appropriate involvement with other people’s energy fields.

When I asked someone in the office what they thought of my use of the world hygiene they thought it was good, noting that most people are preoccupied with surface appearance hygiene like clean, glossy hair for instance and pay no attention to energy field hygiene.

We must be responsible for our use of our energy, but we must also deal with how other people interact with our energy field. Flower Essences from the Sovereignty Set help us keep our field clear of other people’s energy and help us resist having our energy field tapped by others. The Sovereignty Set works from the reality that many people pull on other people’s energy systems unconsciously.

Our parents lay down our basic wiring for human interactions. If you had a parent who wired you to give your life force energy to this parent so they could harvest your energy any time they want, you will have a susceptibility to giving other people your energy and allow them into your energy field.

Flower Essences offer our electrical system alternatives to programmed decisions that lower our vibration. Allowing others to harvest our energy lowers our vibration.

The Sovereignty Set was created to help you keep your energy field pristine and share your energy as you wish not through a default to old wiring. Its gifts dovetail beautifully with our beloved friend Golden Armor.

The Sovereignty Set clarifies boundaries. People with confused wiring often think they are responsible for much more than they are responsible for. Flower Essences support the vital work of breaking patterns of energetically giving too much.

Creating the Sovereignty Set with the Angels and Elementals was one of the most involved projects I have undertaken. The Angels, Elementals and I worked together for more than thirty years before we tackled this project. It is a collection that offers profound healing information.

Energy field hygiene is essential to our animal beloveds too. They have no built in barriers to their energy fields being violated. This means we need to pay attention to what we expect from our animals and offer them Flower Essences and other tools so they can better protect their energy fields out in the world. I was reminded of this when this morning a GHF friend asked us to create a mix for a horse with prion disease.

 Prion is a disease which mostly affects deer, but when a horse eats grass that deer have urinated on, the horse can get prion disease. This is what happened to this horse. My limited understanding of prion disease process is that it is a template of deformed proteins invade nerve tissue ( brain/nerve tissue, myelin sheaths etc) and the healthy proteins are influenced to deform like the prions.

When making a custom mix or suggesting Flower Essences for someone or an animal, I ask my partners the Angels and Elementals for their suggestions. I will never understand Flower Essences and their healing depths as well as my partners from the Angelic and Elemental kingdoms. Even their framing of how to work with Essences teaches me things on a daily basis. Yesterday they suggested a very ill person use a day mix for when they must go out into the world and a night mix for the restorative work that happens when we sleep. This made so much sense to me, much as it had not occurred to me before.

So back to the horse with prion disease. When I asked the Angels and Elementals to compose the mix, the following Essences were their suggestions. The comments in parenthesis are my thoughts and may not be particularly insightful. More they reflect patterns I have noticed the Angels and Elementals make.

Celandine ( strengthening cell to cell communication)

California Poppy ( this crops up for lots of myelin sheath issues)

Alignment Garden (I recently put back the full description of this dynamo after I had previously edited it down to nothing)

Larkspur ( course correction)

Date Palm ( DNA)

Watch Your Back (all the palms in this work on the nervous system)

Musk Thistle ( protective but also reorganizes our energy field)

Coralita ( smooth flow in nervous system)

Silver-rod ( this felt very strong to me, helps move enough voltage through our system so we can throw off errant energies) 

Sarah Van Fleet Rose

Restore Divine Order ( from the Sovereignty Set) 

Disrupt, Derail and Dismantle Negative Energy ( from the Sovereignty Set) 

Gatekeeper ( from the Sovereignty Set) 

Golden Armor

It was this final turn of the mix towards Golden Armor and a trio from the Sovereignty Set that made me pause and write this blog to remind you that if, in this complicated time, you feel your energy system or that of a beloved in your life could use support to remain strong and clear, the Sovereignty Set is there for you.

Reginald here. The most important groundhog on the property reporting in on our own personal Alamo.

Yes, many of you are wondering about the situation at the primary vegetable garden. The fact is that several of our beloved clan have chosen to remain in the burrow in the center of this garden even as a trench is dug to keep us out. I chose to stay inside the trench to keep spirits up as we face this historic challenge to our sovereignty. Yes, there is a place we can walk across to get out of the garden, but why would we go? This garden has long been OUR playground and pantry.

I am gratified that the media is interested in our story. It is a brave choice to remain in the garden, because there is not much food. No it was not harvested by the humans. We ate it all before that could happen. So we are on a bit of a fast inside the trenches. We may have to eat the onions and basil, the only crops we have sneered at.

Please don’t worry about us! Life is good. We redig holes when human children fill them in. We play canasta. We laugh in the face of the man with the backhoe. We think how history will remember us. We will stay here inside the trench until the new fence goes up, and then we will parade back to our other burrows where we have books to read this winter about techniques for breaching fences of all sorts.

First trench dug. Pathetic attempt at a fence still in place on the left.

Trenching continues. Notice that our escape route is being checked out by visiting grandpuppy. Also note that gardener has thrown in the towel on this garden and left crab grass to prevail where once were tasty vegetables.

Grandpuppy checking out our burrow in center of garden. Note that gardener person has begun to remove useless frost cloth which we learned to crawl under for munching on “protected” crops. It’s been a hot, dry summer so we appreciated the shade provided by the cloth.

Original fencing now removed which really makes no difference to use as it failed to deter us in any way. Last covered crop of carrots with frost cloth at top of picture revealed to have been successfully demolished by us. Good work team!

Let’s not get careless in the final days of this harvest season. Somehow the gardener harvested four beans and got them into the house before we spotted them. Please don’t let this kind of sloppy behavior prevail. Make sure you eat everything!

I have received many comments on the last blog with a number of questions on the topic of grounding.

People also shared stories of exhaustion, migraines, mind spin, vision concerns and other symptoms resulting from this current influx of high vibration electrical energy into the planet.

We all seem to be wondering what does it mean to be grounded? How do we ground? Why is grounding a good idea? Will we be able to ground well enough to handle these incoming higher frequencies?

Several people said their lives required them to both access higher vibration information and also live in the middle of a lot of lower vibration situations. I think this is probably true for most of us, and it is a hard balance. Others had concerns about whether their electrical systems could handle this influx of higher vibration energies. The Angels indicated that grounding would make all the difference to our electrical systems adaptation to this incoming energy but we all wondered why?

After percolating for a couple of days, I want to share a couple of things I may have shared before and also a new way of looking at grounding that I was led to explore.

Many years ago I was given a routine for grounding by a wise healer. She explained that when working to ground yourself, consider this daily routine: First ask Divinity to clear your energy field of anything that is not pure love and light of Divinity. This helps for many reasons, but as far as grounding goes, it helps remove interference to the grounding process. Then ask to be anchored to the heart of Divinity and to be grounded to the heart of the Earth. This asking to be grounded two ways helps with the balance of both being in the world but not of the world- that high and low vibration mix which is daily life in the world.

You ground to the heart of the Earth because this is the purest part of Earth. Earth itself is processing stuff and therefore grounding to the Earth’s surface could mean grounding to a mixed vibration.

The Angels have long said to me that it helps to do this grounding at the same time each day. Right about now though, it’s good to do it more than once a day if you are feeling stressed.

Being ungrounded can mean not being fully in our physical bodies. Another healer taught me that if I was not grounded fully in my physical body, I was unlikely to efficiently or effectively learn the lessons I was trying to learn. Not being fully in my body was like learning about the ocean while only sticking my toe in the water. This is one reason we created the Grounding Flower Essence mix as it can help us fully inhabit our physical bodies if we have a habit of staying only partially connected.

Why would we not be fully present? We only partially inhabit our bodies as a way to handle very difficult situations.

How do we ground fully into our physical bodies? It can help to talk to the part of ourselves that doesn’t want to be fully present. Sometimes we make a decision not to be grounded fully because it feels like the best decision we can make. Knowing that not being fully grounded and present in our physical body can make it more difficult to be here versus less can encourage us to ground fully. Working with Flower Essences and also asking for help from our spiritual support team can bring us into our physical bodies fully.

This choice to be fully present ties into the Angels comments in the last blog about our use of technology right now. It is a complicated time to be on Earth. Being on our phones or computers all the time may temporarily numb our anxieties, but it also leads us to not be fully present in our bodies and not fully present in our lives. It also makes it hard for us to process and move this incoming energy down through our systems and ground it fully in the Earth.

One last thing the Angels have stressed to me for decades is that some foods are tremendously more grounding than others. Beets, turnips, carrots, potatoes and other root crops are more grounding than other foods as they grow in the ground. We all know which foods and drinks are less grounding! The Angels comment here, “You may think this does not matter, but it does.”

The new thoughts on grounding that I was led to this week began when I was nudged to reread a book about a woman struck by lightening. This got me thinking about the use of the term grounding in connection to lightening and other electrical currents.

Grounding as an electrical process is the process of connecting an electrical circuit or equipment to the earth (or a large conducting body) to provide a low-resistance path for electrical current. This is done primarily for safety reasons. All of the men in Jim’s family have some hair raising stories about WHY grounding is so important. They all do electrical work and grounding is something they all pay a lot of attention to in order to prevent an electric shock or equipment damage ( both of which they have experienced despite their best efforts). Grounding acts as a safety measure by providing a path for excess current to dissipate into the ground rather than flow through people or equipment.

This helps me understand why grounding is incredibly relevant to us as our electrical systems deal with the large amounts of high vibration electrical energy coming to the planet right now.

Like the experienced electricians they are, the Angels keep saying to bring the energy down through all our chakras and through the bottoms of our feet into the Earth. Remember that the chakras are our electrical system that is running these higher frequencies through our bodies, and the Earth is our grounding mechanism.

Bringing the energy down through us and into the Earth is a way for us to manage these enormous energy surges. Grounding gives us time to adapt to the rising vibrations as it dissipates the excess current. Right now, the Angels note that a lot of us are leaving this energy in our upper chakras where we experience a lot of strange symptoms and risk burn out.

I asked the Angels if they wanted me to say anything else and they said to remind you that ROSE FLOWER ESSENCES can help with the burnout right now and restore your electrical circuits. Look at the Rose collection page and see what is calling to you. Some that may jump forward for you include Rosa Gallica, Sarah Van Fleet Rose, Margaret Merrill Rose, Red Rugosa Rose and Goldfinch Rose. But TRUST WHAT YOU FEEL DRAWN TO!

Please let me know if these thoughts leave you with more questions, and we will keep discussing this very important and pressing topic together. 

I started this blog with casual chat about the normal nerves associated with a return to school and other transitions into fall. I will tuck that conversation and my suggestions for Flower Essences after what the Angels asked me to prioritize talking about.

What happened as I typed was that a number of healers and earth grid workers texted me from all over the country to discuss the incoming energy. The mood was startled but also very focused on how much was coming in and how fast. This is being described by many healers as an unprecedented amount of incoming light.

As my phone kept pinging with thoughts from many healers- not consciously networked but somehow all tuning in to what is going on, I finally got the point the Angels wanted me to get- that maybe I needed change the topic of this blog to discuss how the usual transition to fall are made more complex by this current enormous wave of incoming energy.

First of all it is important to remember that this incoming energy is in service to us. However we must work with it, otherwise we experience all sorts of challenges.

Upticks in the earth grid vibration are done in a coordinated way. The upticks are not smooth and steady but have their own wisdom and timetable. Sometimes a great deal of energy comes in quite quickly to lift the Earth (as in right now). Other times, things are more quiet. We are in a situation where a big uptick is happening. Trying to figure out the whys of these upticks is like trying to understand what is going on backstage by watching a play. In any case, we do not need to understand the whys to work with them.

How do we recognize these upticks are happening? Our physical bodies certainly inform us. And if you want confirmation of what your body is telling you, the Schumann resonance will give you confirmation.

Here are two snapshots of the Schumann resonance from earlier this week and from today. Check out Consciously Erin on YouTube if you want to keep up to date with the Schumann resonance. Here is a blog I wrote on the Schumann resonance last December and another blog I wrote this July. Erin does a reading on this every couple of days.

Greater vitality and a feeling of expansive well-being can be a sign we are moving the energy fully into our electrical systems. Symptoms of restlessness, mind spinning with way too much mental activity, difficulty sleeping, anxiety and being accident prone are often signs that we are having a difficult time moving this incoming energy from our upper chakras fully down through our bodies and on into connection with the earth. These symptoms are a call to do this work as once we do it, the energy becomes a pure gift of spiritual awakening and enlightenment.

If you are feeling these symptoms, consider working to move the energy down. Later in this blog, the Angels suggest these Essences again, but it is worth repeating that Grounding, the Alignment Garden, Hollyhock and Flow Free all help us move this energy down.

The Angels also suggest we slow down, stay hydrated and see our daily chores as a very helpful way to keep us grounded and to help move the energies down and fully flowing into our lives and bodies. They say that daily chores and the routines of physical life on earth help tremendously, and it is our new habits of technology that often impede the movement of this energy through us.

They are giving me this message with quite a lot of urgency. As in, “just post this blog- don’t find a bunch of pictures or fiddle around- just get it out there.”

We have to remember this is a new earth for the Angels too. What is happening is unexpected for them too. For example, they note that they are having a challenging time keeping people safely in their bodies. They specifically mention how poorly people are driving right now. We always have Angels helping to keep us safe, but they are stretched right now. So get grounded before you drive and drive defensively. Your Angels will thank you.

So here is the original blog below. I hope it offers helpful information on melding this energy work with the usual transitions of fall!

One night last week several of our grandchildren and their adults sat around a campfire making ‘smores and talking about the coming school year.

It was hot and buggy and the smoke was in our eyes no matter where we sat, but everyone seemed happy to be there. Somehow we got on the topic of school anxiety dreams. All of us still had them, and they were amazingly similar. You realize you have not attended a class all year but now need to take the final exam. You know you need to get to class but you have woken up late, can’t open your phone and don’t know where the class is. For the former teachers there at the campfire there were dreams of not being prepared before teaching a class. One even had the classic dream of discovering themselves naked in front of a classroom of students.

Even long after our formal education is in the rear view mirror, we seem to approach fall with a school lunchbox full of anxiety, anticipation, nerves and excitement. Even if our schedules will not change when school starts, school leaves an indelible mark and the beginning of school brings up a lot for all of us.

Below are topics that fall brings up and a few Flower Essence suggestions for each topic. Let me know if you think of other topics I should consider.

NEW BEGINNINGS

Yup, got one that we love with this name! New Beginnings!

COURAGE

Roncesvalles: Helps us muster the courage to begin and take the first steps in a journey.

Alex MacKenzie Rose: Help to find the courage to do what we have to do.

Borage: Helps restore our courage and good cheer if we are depleted and at a low ebb.

Be Fearless– Created right before we were plunged into covid world, this one helps us in so many ways to be fearless and savor the ride.

CONFIDENCE

Showcats: Helps us find our mojo and shine in our own unique and wonderful way

Eyes of Mary: Helps us be confident we can survive bumps in the road by helping us see the big picture.

Cosmos: Confidence we will be able to speak up when we need to.

ANXIETY

Anxiety: This remains our number one Essence for people and animals for about a zillion reasons.

BEING PRESENT IN OUR BODIES

This year the changes of Fall are compounded by the high energies incoming. Remember if you are feeling spaced out or wired especially after you go to bed or feeling your mind spinning, you may have moved these new higher energies into only your upper chakras. It is important to bring them down through your whole body to the soles of your feet and into the earth. Alignment Garden, Flow Free and Hollyhock ALL help with this.

Grounding: Especially with so much light energy pouring into Earth right now, we can find ourselves not fully in our bodies. New experiences can also leave us spacing out. Grounding is our mix to help us be fully here and present and fully in our bodies. This makes it so much easier for us to learn what we need to learn as when we are not in our bodies we are not fully in our life experiences and therefore can’t fully learn what we want and need to learn.

Rosemary: School and fall in general means being inside more and surrounded by more people. Rosemary helps us enjoy the physicality of this even if it initially this makes us nervous.

TIME MANAGEMENT

Flow issues- You know what I am going to suggest if you have ever read this blog before- Flow Free is your ticket here!

Healing our relationship with time so we feel there is enough time: Thyme from Green Hope Farm

Thyme from Omey Island helps us access Celtic wisdom of time and a spaciousness in time that opens up our lives in a multitude of ways.

Thyme from Crete– Restorative if we have had fiery relationship with time and have burned ourselves out doing too much in too little time.

Redwood– Helps us be in the eternal Now which is the only real moment of time.

Sending you all love and blessings! Molly

It was a bitter cold March day in Meriden, New Hampshire, just the kind of bitter cold New Hamshire day we would learn to love endure in the many years ahead. Jim and I, age 12 22, sat in the headmaster’s office of Kimball Union Academy. Just prior to our interview with the headmaster we had survived a robust and lengthy tour of campus with winds roaring off the polar ice cap. This had been a particular pleasure for me as my winter coat got locked in the Athletic Director’s office before the tour. Not that it was a warm enough coat anyways, because Connecticut winter coats really don’t cut it in New Hampshire winters. As I sat perched on the seat listening attentively to the headmaster’s oration, my chattering was only half nerves.

The headmaster was a charismatic but entirely humorless man often spotted running the track with his tie on. Even in this first encounter, the intimidation factor was through the roof. Jim and I were college seniors, planning to marry on September 1st. Headmaster Mikula had just offered us jobs to teach Math ( Jim ) and English (me) and do four hundred other jobs related to life in a private school (like coach field hockey even though I had never played the game).

One would have thought we would be of good cheer (because it was our first and only job offer), but mostly we were feeling confused. The headmaster had prefaced his job offer by giving us a scathing review of our lives so far, wrapping up with the words, “You smile too much. The students are going to eat you alive.”

It was clear he did not want to hire us, but needs must. There was but one available apartment and the headmaster wanted all teachers to live on campus. The school needed an English teacher and a Math teacher so we fit the bill for the vacant apartment/teaching positions, but the real clincher was that the school needed a swim coach. Jim had swum competitively for twelve years, and there was not much he didn’t know about swimming. I was to be his side kick at the pool as I had swum in college for a year.

As we rose to go, the headmaster had one more demand. “You need to change your wedding date. I am not putting a couple who have been married 24 hours in charge of a dorm of 48 teenage boys.” Negotiations were short. We agreed on an August 11th wedding date, because after all, three weeks of married life would make all the difference.

We went back to our respective campuses to graduate then returned to our Connecticut hometown where we had met in fifth grade. Though we had done no planning, we managed to pull off a wedding on August 11th. It was a long summer and a motley affair. The preceding weeks, Jim ran the second shift at an ice cream factory, rolling home most night as 2 or 3 in the morning. I was teaching arts and crafts at a local summer camp. The only time we were both awake and available was lunchtime when Jim would come to the camp to talk wedding details. My mother wanted an Emily Post type affair which mostly seemed to involve her giving a lot of deranged directives to us, and Jim and I head scratching to implement these executive orders. There were many unpleasant conversations at our lunches. “My mother says your mother can’t ….” That sort of thing. Most memorably, a bunch of 11 year old campers delighted in throwing balls at us during lunch, yelling, “Do it on the lawn.”

Jim would probably definitely mention that the second topic of conversation at these grim lunches was about Skylab, a big satellite due to fall to earth moments before our nuptials. It was impossible hard work for him to convince me that in all probability Skylab was not going to fall on me and crush our wedding dreams. It is a wonder he showed up at the church

The best thing about the wedding for me was leaving with Jim. I also loved wearing my great great grandmother’s wedding dress from 1854. We arrived on campus the day after we got married. We had no money so needed to go right to our dorm apartment. Little did we know that miraculously we would survive triumph through a decade at Kimball Union and 46 years in the tiny town of Meriden (and counting).

Today, being the anniversary of the headmaster’s choice for our wedding day, Jim and I found ourselves trying to recall if we sat in his office with any vision for what was to come. We agreed we had no idea of the grand adventure that lay ahead of a magical farm, Flowers and more Flowers, precious children and grandchildren, beloved animals, Angels, Elementals, a wonderful Green Hope Farm community of you all and of course groundhogs. So thank you Divinity for this marvelous adventure and thank you Headmaster Mikula for picking a great day for us and for giving us a chance to come to this tiny town and meet our destiny.
