Learning to Hear Truth by Listening to the Stone People

Having surrendered to the sound of love emanating from and through all of the universe,
We are finally able to hear the vibration of our life force beating her resonance with Creator.
When still enough we sit with it and rustle up the courage to act upon the messages felt/heard on the breezes of the earth mother, in the songs of her creatures, in the pulse of the heart of every being…especially the heart of the stone person, a gift of the Mother, broken loose from the soil of her being and landing, seemingly hap-hazard in our hands.  We all have them.  These little stones that caught our eye, our fancy and we picked them up and brought them home with us.   For many of us this fascination with little stones (or not so little stones) begins when we are children, bringing home a pocketful of stones from the park or a trip to the beach. Perhaps the young ones know something we have forgotten.
Jamie Sams' book Thirteen Original Clan Mothers  the May Moon Cycle offered up the story of Listening Woman and her relationship with Hagehjih-Old Man, the Stone Person (pg. 113-116). The story tells of how Listening Woman learned to listen and hear the ancient, non-verbal language ‘spoken’ by Hagehjih-Old Man. How she came to honor the resonance of guidance coming to her through this humble, tiny stone.  How her discerning and listening pointed her always in the right direction and right timing.  Have we opened our awareness and released disbelief to hear in this way?


Self Reflection: Have I taken time to listen to the stone people hanging out in my own house?  If I were willing to take enough time to sit in stillness and silence and listen until I heard my Rock Person speak, what do I hear?
