Young people, your  beautiful, Spirit energy best aligns with Universal vibrations: When you work to develop/clarify personal Purpse to serve Universal Purpose - Harmony and balance in the universe ​​When you remember that ​Sp​i​ri​t​ work is about service not ju​s​t eg​o​, gratifcation, personal fulfillment or individual contemplation​​; Universal harmony can only come when we work to eradicate social, economic, cultural and political injustice in our world- and pour out radiant love, good energy, justice and peace instead; Actively practice listening to the Elders, reading voraciously, observing nature and all its inhabitants, utilizing dance, music, movement and all your sense (all 137 of them!!) and consistently sitting in deep silence and meditation Engage in daily Spirit Rituals (Earth, Fire, Water, Libation, Mineral rituals) to give you discipline, consistency, focus and clarity with your Spirit work.Make all your Spirit work towards an end that is bigger than your personal fullfilment.​​Have Peace​​Nene​
