The Bullet
Standing in journey space with ‘The Squad’, I invoke the spirit of the earth Gaia announcing ourselves and our intent to help in whatever way she needs. We hold hands in a circle. Once the invocation is done a bright white tunnel of light whooshes through the middle of our circle. One by one we are sucked into the light. We travel in the light for a bit until we land on a beach. As we gather on the beach, a meteor races across the sky crashing nearby. We go investigate. In the crater created by the impact is a small metallic looking ball. Picking it up, I roll it around in my hand. It is small about the size of a marble, and it feels heavy and metallic. An image comes and I see the small metal ball shaped into a bullet. Suddenly I am in a metal forging place. With all the forgery instruments I craft the metal ball into a bullet. I take the bullet back to the group and we craft an altar placing it in the center. The bullet begins to cry. The bullet is sad for all the death it has caused. It keeps crying out ‘so much blood’ between sobs. I look at the group asking if anyone know how to address this level of karma??? I am met by blank stares. Another image comes and I am shown a pool of healing water. Leaving again, this time to collect from the pool of water. I approach the pool with humility asking if she would share her healing powers. She agrees so I collect water from the pool filling only a small vial. When I return the bullet looks less like a bullet and more like a stone now reminding me of the shiva lingam statues. Opening the vial, I pour a single drop of water on the tip of the metal turning stone. The stone begins to shake then cracks into three pieces. We take the pieces to the water. The water is dark and inky. We place the stone pieces on the shore for the water to reclaim. The water comes in a single wave taking the pieces back into the watery void. I have an idea and drop another single drop of water from my vial into the watery void. There is a bright flash, and the water turns from inky black to a beautiful bright aqua color. I hear a voice say ‘Just a drop will do.’ Then we are back at the beginning again.
