Soul consciousness is infinite. Although each unique soul is energetically connected to the Divine, we appear separate. Our perception of one another as separate energies is just an illusion. We are all connected by the air we breathe, the earth we stand on and our invisible connection to and within the the universe. Indigenous cultures throughout the ages have understood that humans exist not as solid matter but as vibrational beings in direct contact with the greater source of energies surrounding us. Spiritual practices, rituals, astrology, philosophy and transformation bear witness to this understanding. In the past all these things were closely entwined into the everyday lives of our Ancestors.  They did not view themselves as separate from their environment, but functional parts of the whole. They were able to learn about themselves in what they saw and felt. Ritual is important.,,It is how we learn. Rituals were the scientific experiments of our predecessors. By returning to the ways of our Ancestors we can learn to live in harmony with ourselves and our environment.
