Now who is the Predator and who is the Prey?

 Recently I listened to a  Spiritual Weather Report call  with guest speaker Anna Breitenbach. Anna discussed the energy of the Coronavirus and what we might learn from it. You  can listen to the recording here. (You can also attend a fundraiser for and with Anna this coming Saturday, 5/23 @ 9am pacific time here.)

As Anna was sharing about the virus I had an "aha"  moment as I became aware that, for the most part, human civilizaton has been the predator and has hunted and killed all other species (including it's own!) Now with the social isolation  of humans, there have been reports of all kinds of wild animals making their presence known. Dolphins have been seen swimming in the canals of Venice. There have been sightings of many other wild animals showing themselves as they come out of hiding, as we humans have had to "hide out" at home.

Now we humans have had to shift from predator to prey as we hunker down  in our homes to try to keep ourselves "safe" from the Coronavirus. We are in fear for our own lives! We are facing our own death as well as the death of our loved ones and many hundreds of thousands of others who have already lost their lives.  Finally, may we begin to realize that this is how most of the animal kingdom has had to live in order to survive.  They have had to hide and remain invisible as their habitat has gotten smaller and smaller  over the last century or so. Humans have reached a point where human game hunters have shot and killed  so many of the "Big 5" in  "canned hunts" so they can feel power over. There is no reverance or respect for life as long as these heartless behaviors continue. It is our turn to really reflect on our  heartless arrogance and superior behavior and learn to have compassion for ALL living beings! We need to open our hearts in great compassion for the animals (and humans) we have "ruled" over. As we feel what it feels like to be "the prey" hiding from the Coronavirus, we are being asked to learn these lessons of polarized states of consciousness such as; life/death, survival/extinction, better than/less than, superior/inferior,  and power over/over-powered, to name a few. We have treated those in the animal kingdom  so inhumanely!  (We treat each other inhumanely as well.) Life is so very precious and humans need to honor and respect the gift of life that we each have been given.

The Gift of the Coronavirus is that it has  given us the opportunity to STOP and reflect on where we have been and where we are going. Life, as we have known it, no longer exists or  will not look like what we  remember. And perhaps it is  time to ask ourselves what  is truly our heart's desire, as we contemplate birthing a "new earth"? What might we change or do differently now? How do we wish to be treated and how do we wish to treat others?

When we contemplate life and death for the entire  planet may  we  begin to see that all of life depends on our interconnection with each other. We all need each other! What would each of us choose to manifest as we  begin to vision a new Heaven on Earth reality? We are powerful manifestors and it is time now to take responsibility for all of our thoughts and actions in a very conscious way. Let's come together in unconditional love and co-create a New Earth where the Lion and the Lamb lay down together in Peace and Love.
