The Answer Is Blowing In The Wind
Sat Nam,
I have asked myself: what does the Air element in the Muladhara Chakra mean?
What is the expression of the Air in the Root Chakra?
Reflecting on my own experience didn’t give me the answers. And no book that I know gives this exact knowledge
that I am seeking.
I recalled a conversation I‘ve had with Rina Kedem, in preparation for this journey.
Rina is a multi-talented, multi-faceted woman. Like Devi with 6 arms… - she does a lot!
On that talk she mentioned the way the indigenous people of the Lakota tribe teach: “there are no short-cuts” she said, “ the way they do is by telling you: If you want to know something, go out there and ask, go out there and listen. If you want to know the qualities of the East, go to the mountain, sit there, ask and listen…”
So I took this advise, walked into the desert, climbed on a hill, set there, and asked: what is the meaning of Air in the Muladhara? what does Air in the Earth mean?
As I set next to a”burning bush” I had a feeling that there is a chance to hear something…so I listened.
And the answer didn’t take long, before it was blowing in the wind.
Do you hear it?
In case you didn’t hear it. Here is a clue:
The Air in the Earth is blowing the seeds, and blowing the smells
Allowing the Earth to share its blossoming essence, and its abundant potential for rebirth.
The Sense that is related to the Earth element is Smell.
The seeds that are blowing in the wind are not directed to a specific spot. They are not intended to fertilize a specific individual. They are spreading in the wind, and once they have left the body of the bush they have a life of their own, their own journey.
Some of them will dry out. Some will be accepted into the earth, and will sprout.
I began to ponder: How does it manifest in my life?
mmmmm….
Well, it’s like these posts that I share with you here: they are spreading out, not directed to one individual. They have a life of their own. some will dry out, and some will be accepted and will sprout in the minds and hearts of others, and from there maybe even spread new seeds onto new lands… Just like the seeds that I have accepted into my mind and my heart…

Addition to the original post
Thanks to Prem Amrit’s comment. I reflect again…
And allow myself to bring my awareness back into the Roots - and bring air into the density of the Earth. Refine it.
Air the Earth, so that the water can flow with ease, and the roots can deepen.
The Seeds blowing in the wind… well, they are probably more of an Pure Air quality…
I guess that because my personal intention these days has to do with the Healing of my Heart, I am actually more aware of the Air… Everywhere.
Always good to have the advice of a gardener. Especially when exploring Earth.
I hear it as a calling to know her better. The Earth.
Thank you!
