You are walking through a garden forest. The mossy-wet
floor dampens your bare feet and the scent of your favorite
trees fills the air. The spongy ground gives a spring to
your step, and a lightness to your spirit.

You come upon the Pool of Oneness. There, in the clearing
before you. Its Gentle Presence cannot hide from you. The
waters welcome you as you find yourself effortlessly gliding
to the bank, and slipping your feet into the current as you
sit upon the shore.

It is lush and green and alive here. Birds of many colors
flit about, weaving their songs into the vibration of
Harmony here.

Many lilies float upon the glassy surface. A tall tree
beside you spreads its vast roots into the floor of the Pool
and deep within the Beloved Mother Earth. You breathe
easily and gently here. Breathe in the essence of Peace,
and exhale the essence of Peace. All tensions simply
dissolve and melt into the waters as you breathe beside the
Pool and become relaxed.

The lilies capture your attention, and then you realize a
hand lies beneath each lily. The lilies transform and shape
shift and become candles in the hands of Gods and Goddesses,
and you see Your Family within this Pool of Oneness, bathing
and wading and BE-ing in the waters. You slip into the Pool
and join Them.

There is much friendly greeting and connection of Hearts
here. It matters not if you cannot visualize; simply feel
the essence of Love given here at this time. Feel the Love
that you give freely back. Let your imagination bring
images forth, and don't worry if you feel like you are
making things up.

Everyone in the Pool forms a circle, and each hand holds a
candle cupped gently in Their palm, resting upon the surface
of the water. This Union brings much Light, and it is
Beautiful witnessing the many Lights around the Pool.

As you look at your own palms, you see that it is not a
candle you hold, but a flame. A Holy Flame flickering in
the palm of Your Hand, the Hand of Your Higher Self, just
like everybuddy else. It is awesome to see Family here, in
this way, weaving this Love and Light through Our Hands.

Your Heart begins to warm, and radiate, and Love bursts
forth as a gentle bubble of Light illuminates the
at-moss-sphere. One by One everybuddy's Heart Light opens
and radiates around the Pool of Oneness.

The flow of Love is like a current. Love moves through You,
IS You, BECOMES You. You receive Love from the One to the
left, add Love to it, and give Love away to the One on the
right. It is a natural give and take that has its own
rhythm. Just breathe with Love and the idea of connecting
with this Family of One.

Take a few moments to let Love circulate and flow through
You. Focus on the breath, and see how even and deep
breathing helps propel and circulate this current of Love.
Say out loud, "I GIVE AND RECEIVE LOVE EASILY," and see how
the spoken Words amplify the current.

There are many Family members here. In the Pool of Oneness,
there is no time. No separation. Nothing distorted from
mortal mind. Only Truth. Only that which is everlasting and
eternal. The Pool of Oneness holds the vibration of All
That Is.

Any idea brought to the Pool of Oneness reveals itself and
its own Divinity. That which is brought to the Pool of
Oneness that is not of Your Divinity simply melts away and
vanishes in the Light of Truth. This Pool is Powered by Our
Higher Selves and that which makes us all One. Only Truth is
everlasting.

As You stand here in the Pool of Oneness, the vibration of
Divine Love fills every cell, ion, and particle of Your
BE-ing. Your emotional, mental, physical and spiritual
essences are cleaned, refreshed, and made One. All
dimensions and planes where YOU exist are Harmonized. Your
sense of well being is ever present. If there is any
tension or idea of disHarmony within your body, simply
breathe into it and let it melt into the Pool.

Take a few gentle moments to re-focus on the breath, and
allow the Sense of Self to relax, and feel whole.

With Your left palm upward to receive, and Your right palm
facing down to give, hold Hands with the Family members
beside You in the Pool of Oneness. Feel the Absoluteness of
this Love flow through Your Hands.

Feel how water is a conduit for spirit. Breathe Love into
the top of Your crown and let it flow down through Your toes
and into the soft mud floor like roots of a Tree.

Think of Yourself as a Tree as You work with this energy.
How do you flow? What do your limbs look like? How
"limber" are you? What is the texture of your bark? Feel
the firmness of your roots and how strongly you hold
yourself within the Earth.

Feel your roots effortlessly slipping deeper through the
mud, touching rock and dirt, flowing into ancient chambers
and pathways on a familiar course, moving deeper into the
Core of the Beloved Mother Earth. The tips of your roots
rest at the edges of Her Molten Core.

As you sense this Source within the Mother Earth, you are
sensing the Mirror of the Source within You. This part of
You that is eternal, everlasting, and infinite.

There is as sense of soul depth here. A familiarity.
Become still and let Your Heartbeat resonate with this
place. The Heartbeat of all the Trees pulses in tune with
the beat of the Beloved Mother Earth. You feel the Power of
Oneness here. You feel the Presence of Infinite Spirit.
As You gaze upon this Source of Creation, a Hand reaches up
from the depths, and a key lays within its palm. The
Presence of the Infinite Spirit has brought a gift. You
reach a long branch outward and the key is placed upon your
limb. Linger here at the edge of this deep body of molten
splendor a few moments, and listen to the story this Source
of Creation has to tell.

Think of Self now, and how this place of Creation Mirrors
the Core of You. How are You likened to this place? What is
the temperature of Your Fire? What are the banks of this
molten flow like? Are there symbols upon the rocks? Are
there walls here, or is it a deep chamber? Are there sacred
chambers and rooms to explore? Let Your imagination reveal
this. Do not worry if you feel you are making things up.
This is how Infinite Spirit communicates.

The energy here is the essence of Balance, Power, Ability.
Within the Pool of Oneness You have found the Flame of Self.
The Infinite Spirit. You have found a special key that only
You have access to. It will open pathways to Majesty,
Magic, Radiance, Beauty and that which is Yours by Divine
Right. Your own unique path of Grace. Hold this key to
Your Heart and give thanks for its gifts.

You find something within Your branches to leave as a gift
in return. Your awareness then gently moves back up through
the Earth, slowly and easily, until the Sense of Self rises
above the waters of the Pool.

Many Trees stand magestically around the Pool, and a gentle
breeze blows through all the leaves, making You One with the
currents of Love. A shape comes upon the breeze, and a form
begins to materialize before You.

The Wind stands before You. SHe shapes into a form You
recognize. The wings of Many Angels seem to flutter beside
Her. Her Voice is the sound of many chimes as SHe speaks.
"The Air is the current which brings Heaven onto Earth. You
have delved into the Earth, Water, and Fire. It is the Air,
and the spoken Words, which bring Divinity into
manifestation here on Earth. "Words are Sword spelled
differently. Words are Power. Speak that which You ARE,
and that which You shall BE. Bring Your Words into
manifestation. The Sword of Truth is Your Words."

You find Words effortlessly flowing from Your lips. Out
loud You say, "I AM that I AM," and many other "I AM"
statements tumble forth. It is only possible to speak Words
of Truth in Her Presence. You think in Higher Ways about
Self, and what You have to offer to humanity. You Sense the
Divine Self. As You speak out loud, the energy of Your
Words flows down Your BE-ing, and Your roots carry this
Power into the Mother Earth.

Your Words ripple outward, touching the Pool of Oneness and
All within it. Your Words resonate and vibrate, flowing deep
within the Beloved Mother Earth. Your Words touch the Core
of Self and the Infinite Spirit within. Out loud You give
Voice to Words that emPower. "DIVINE ORDER IS ESTABLISHED
IN MY MIND, BODY, AND AFFAIRS. ALL THAT IS MINE BY DIVINE
RIGHT COMES TO ME EASILY." The Truth of the spoken Words
vibrate into All Your BE-ing. Say them several times out
loud and let the energy penetrate into every cell, ion,
molecule, particle, and flame that You ARE.

The Wind stands before You and smiles. In Her eyes You are
a perfect Image and reflect-ion of God/Goddess. Her image
is a Mirror for You. SHe bows, saluting the Divinity within
You, and then disappears.

You find yourself sitting upon the bank of a Pool, merrily
dangling your bare feet in the waters. It is a beautiful
Pool within a gentle forest. All around the Pool are many
Trees, and birds of many colors singing songs of Joy.
Welcome home, and thank You for sharing.
