Earth's Energy: points and pathways

It is widely experienced, especially by native communities, and understood that our planet is alive, not only on the surface with visible growth but also inside its core.

Earth, Gaia, Terra, Tellus, is our precious planet. The living being we inhabit, a source of energy in its own rights, is placed at an amazing juncture on the galactic net.

Its energy body has points and paths of energy, just like our own body has chakras and meridians.

Connecting to nature and regularly grounding is essential to our own wellbeing. In fact, the quality of our connection impacts directly our health.

Further, tuning into the planet chakras can enhance and open up new ways of being for us, from healing to discerning new energy levels.

How to connect to the Earth’s energy?

Wherever you are, the first thing to do is follow your instinct to go to or stop at certain locations.

To connect to the frequencies tune in to the place, or look at pictures of it, and meditate, fully focusing on your intention of being present and ‘in tune’.

A map akin to a body diagram of the world chakras (ley lines, grids, portals, vortices, etc) has been designed, identifying areas of very high energy. Starting from the

Root or Base Chakra

Location: Mount Shasta, California

This area is understood to be the interface between body, mind, and spirit. Mount Shasta is recognised as an electrically charged place. It represents creative power at its best.

Sacral Chakra

Location: Lake Titicaca shared by Bolivia and Peru

The area is highly charged with the presence of Machu Picchu, Cuzco, Iquitos, Aramu Muru (Gate of the Gods), Tiwanaku nearby.

Two major ley lines intersect at Lake Titicaca, the male and female Great Dragon lines, also known as the feathered serpent (male) and rainbow serpent (female/androgynous).

Solar Plexus Chakra

Location: Uluru and Kata Tjuta, Northern Territory, Australia

This area is still sacred to the Aboriginals and it is a source of insight, memory, and learning.

It represents personal power, vitality, stillness, and harmony.

Heart Chakra

Location: Glastonbury/Shaftesbury/Stonehenge, UK

The bridge chakra balancing spiritual and physical, mind and feelings, upper and lower, etc.

Stonehenge is the highest charged of these places. All these locations have a highly regarded magical reputation, through times and civilizations.

Throat Chakra

Location: The Great Pyramids, Egypt, or Mount Sinai, Egypt/Mount of Olives, Israel

The throat chakra is one of the largest energy centres on Earth. It stands for communication, the voice of our planet, self-expression, a portal to other dimensions.

It is the only energy centre not connected to the two major ley lines, the male and female Great Dragon lines.

Third Eye Chakra

Location: Western Europe (in transit to reach Brazil around 3500CE)

It is understood that this chakra does not have a fixed location and moves according to the Earth’s rotation and eons described through astrological ages. In the current Age of Aquarius, the Third Eye chakra is believed to be located in Western Europe near Stonehenge in England. With the following Age of Capricorn, the chakra is believed to be moving to Brazil.

Crown Chakra

Location: Mount Kailash, Tibet

Oneness and unity. Connected to the concept of death and rebirth,

the Scorpio Full Moon (around the end of April-beginning of May) is apparently linked to the energy of Mount Kailash. This Full Moon marks the beginning of a new cycle, transformation and change, deep emotional experiences.

There are many other high-energy points around the world. For instance:

Mount Fuji in Japan

Tulum in Mexico

Maui in Hawaii

Kiev in Ukraine

Angkor Wat in Cambodia

Easter Island or Rapa Nui, Chile

Cape Town in South Africa

Lake Taupo in New Zealand

Bali in Indonesia

Sedona in Arizona

Which place will you connect with first?

Feeling Earth's Energy

Energy. Perhaps something you would like more of?

We require energy to live and function. We are not the only ones: everything requires energy.

How about our planet Gaia or the Earth?

Most of the energy comes from the Sun, and the rest comes from internal heating.

In short, energy is the power to do or produce change, know something and elaborate. It is a necessary and very basic block to getting started with anything.

Interestingly, potential energy is energy that is stored, it can be accessed anytime and used later. That is the type of energy we want to tap into as it is often charged with data.

It is said that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, only transmuted.

So, how can we start connecting and feeling the link with the Earth? And get more energetic?

Nothing could be simpler and I am sure you are already doing it:

• Be fully present;

• Feel connected to the Earth through your body;

• Follow your instinct.

Let me give you six ideas to explore more mindfully this life-supportive practice:

1) The easiest and most obvious idea is staying out in the sun. Enjoying natural sunlight, without excessive sun exposure, has many benefits for our body, not only it re-energizes us but also provides vitamin D, boosts the feel-good hormone serotonin, relieves stress, and many more.

2) Walking barefoot on the Earth is healing, grounding, reduces stress and inflammation, and will help increase our sensitivity. You will learn to experience the electromagnetic energy the Earth emits and be more in tune with it easily.

3) Rolling around on the Earth is a feel-good and fun activity to do. This will ground you and at the same time discharge negative energy. In short, this is not only playing, but it does help the physical body get rid of unhealthy energies.

4) Having fresh flowers and/or grow plants, both outside and indoor, to have Nature close by. Tending the garden is a wonderful and refreshing experience. Creating a window box is also exciting. Not to mention how lovely it is to receive a bouquet of flowers.

Watching a plant grow and bloom is akin to feeling like a proud parent.

5) If you have the chance, watching the wildlife in your area, safely, is also a great way to connect with Nature. Simply being present and paying attention to the needs and life rhythms of a squirrel, for instance, can renew purpose and relieve stress.

Studies proved that even watching wildlife documentaries produce the same effect.

6) Tree hugging or sitting against the trunk of a tree, are wonderful ways to slow down and connect deeply with our planet. Take your time to feel the tree and how it welcomes you. To fully benefit, you will need to spend more time with the tree as their life energy is ‘slower’ than ours.

When dealing with Gaia treat her like a good friend - showing love, respect, and care - and she will do likewise. Her wellbeing is closely related to ours.

How to store tea properly

Do you love tea?

You are in good company here. We love loose leaf tea!

You know your favourite and you know where to get it, but do you know how to best store it to enjoy it for longer?

First things first, purchase fresh tea, which is the current year’s harvest to ensure you have the freshness and the full shelf life available to you. This obviously is not applicable to Pu’er or other fermented teas.

Buy the right quantity for you. Whether you are an avid tea drinker or an occasional consumer, buy the right amount or whereabouts. This is because you don’t want to run out of space and then have to throw away old tea which ended up at the back or forgotten.

Antique tea caddies

Choose a suitable tea caddy, meaning a pleasant, airtight, opaque, new container. Tea leaves absorb aromas, flavours, and humidity, so always store separately and in an airtight tea caddy. A previously used container with a lingering smell, or not, could ruin your batch. Disappointingly, glass jar displaying the beauty of the leaves are a no-no. An aluminium canister is currently considered one of the very best options.

Keep your tea caddy in a cool and dry area. This should be far from the cooker, toaster, oven, or radiators to prevent the heat to ruin the flavour. In the same way, avoid placing the tea caddy in the fridge or in a very cold pantry, as it would absorb moisture and spoil.

If your tea is in an air-tight, foil-lined, and resealable pouch, you can choose to keep it in there. Only ensure you resealed it properly after each use, pressing the air out firmly sliding your palm toward the opening and sealing it anew.

It is always advisable to label the container or the pouch with the name of the tea, its origin, flush or harvest season, and date of purchase. If you have a bit of a collection and are a tea lover, this will help you greatly in knowing what you have tasted and plan future purchases.

Consider the natural longevity of your teas. The less oxidised the shorter the shelf life. Green tea should be consumed within a maximum of eight-month, while black tea can keep well for up to two years. Whole leaves will last longer since the surface in contact with air is less than broken ones.

Teas with added ingredients or flavoured tend to degrade more quickly.

Lastly, never ever leave a tea measuring spoon or a scoop inside your tea, no matter the material it is made of. Nothing should be stored with tea. Avoid using an elastic band or a peg to secure a bag in your tea caddy for the same reason.

In short, remember to keep away from air, light, moisture, heat, and other smells to preserve tea original aroma, taste, colour, antioxidants, and vitamins.

Now you can put your kettle on and enjoy a delicious cuppa.

If you are cold, tea will warm you;

if you are too heated, it will cool you;

If you are depressed, it will cheer you;

If you are excited, it will calm you.
