HOW CLOSE CAN WE FLY TO THE SUN …

My journey to Fire

Saturday, October 3, 2020

October 03, 2020 by Sandra Pettigrew

I did this Journey on Sept 7 – the night before over 1000 houses were destroyed in my community of Talent and neighboring Phoenix, Oregon.

I asked to meet fire … a beautiful Bengal tiger came to meet with me. I asked if s/he was here to teach me of the element fire and s/he said yes. I thanked the beautiful animal spirit. I asked if wolf and owl could join, and they were allowed, although I didn’t see much of them through the journey. I know they were both with me. Tiger told me we needed to go to the sun and we held each other (wrapped belly to belly with arms/legs wrapped to hang on). We were suddenly spinning through space heading towards the bright shining sun. I asked Tiger … won’t we burn? I was assured we need to respect but sun won’t burn us on this journey. Tiger held my back towards sun .. not on its surface .. but very close and said ‘you can feel the hot but you will not burn’. We then went to a planet (?) close by and laid face up on the surface (sand, then fields of golden grain) and felt the warm, very warm, caress, strength and energy of the sun. Then we were back on earth in a field of grain beneath the moon, a completely different light. Not hot, but comforting. Then I was told I am part of all the elements because I am a part of everything .. of the ALL.

I asked what I can do to honor them. I was told to honor the directions, create a medicine wheel .. light candles, work with the drum. Recognize their strength as allies.

A second journey .. just tonight (October 3). All elements have huge power .. not always finesse. It seems the collective needs to change to be able to live on the planet with the elements. Many of us are asking for that. The elements are helping us .. our most powerful allies are the most destructive. Fire brings in complete transformation. Fire does not carry emotion. It just is. Fire does not contain itself. When humanity and fire work together there can be more finesse, more containment. We can appreciate it’s power and harness it to benefit our lives. Fire told me we can work with it but not control it. Humanity thinks it can control the elements. Humanity is out of balance …. The earth and humanity are crying out for help. Fire is a fierce ally without a human conscious.

Much love and light …
