Background to the essence Tradescantia/Moses

The essence was originally made with Tradescantia Purple Dome, a deep blue flower with three petals. This flower seems to clear old energy vibrations, moving them out of the old into a new place where they need to go, surrendering to the higher will. The Tradescantia has another identity as a "Moses" flower and this is the energy of the essence.

11. BURNING BUSH

The vows that you make with God
Are to fulfil the will of the divine.
The vows that you make with man
Can push you from the path
Which leads to the bush.
There are two paths around the bush
A left and a right.
But they meet on the other side.
If you have faltered before the cleft in the path
Cut the vow that pulled you aside
For the bush calls to you
As it burns the dross in the cleft
In front of you.
No matter which way you go round the bush
It always brightens your path as it burns.
For it is the divine will not thine
Which leads your footsteps.
It is always thus

If you go right your left is lit
And if you go left it is your right.
Whoever walks with you round the bush
Must walk alone and not in your shadow
For your shadow must be complete as your light.
Let no-one take your light or your dark
It is all the same.
For it was only the firelight
On the path you chose
As you look back and wait in reflection
For the others to meet you from both sides.
Then you can all cross over
As you part again after the straight path.
Round a new fire in a new walk.


Someday
You will all reach agreement
When you wait all together and rest.
The paths of experience are endless


For those who have gone right and left.
New steps can form up above you
As a ladder is made to a bridge
Taking up the two paths to a column
With lights on each step at the sides.
There are helpers in all the dimensions
As the bridge forms from tendrils of light.
Two parallel lines lie before you
Cross-thread these with strengthening strands
Then walk right across to the angels
Awaiting you with open hands.
You don't need to die now to do this
You awaken on earth the divine.
