Dear Water Lovers,
It's Water Blessing Time Again. Thank you for receiving this newsletter.
Thank you for loving water.
The New Moon this month is Saturday, September 15 in the Eastern Time Zone and
Sunday, September 16, 2012 in the Mountain & Pacific Time Zones.
We are almost at the autumnal equinox!
This months recipient of loving energy is the Duwamish River in Washington State.
The Duwamish is a river in the south Seattle area that has been home to major industrial activity for a century. It has received enough industrial discharge over the years, to be classified a Superfund site. There has been an incredible community effort to restore this river. As we send love & thanks to the river, we may also keep in mind all the people who have so lovingly offered their attention and work to the river.
The Duwamish reminds me of the area along the Detroit River where I grew up. In Detroit it is the auto industry. In Seattle it is the airplane industry. I've been contemplating the blessings that cars and planes bring to our lives. They have facilitated humanity's awareness of ourselves as a "global village". So I send blessings and love to those industries...with prayers that those who make these machines are surrounded by loving light. I pray those in charge of these industries awaken to their oneness with all things.

"The earth does not belong to us. We belong to the earth.
Whatever befalls the earth befalls the sons and daughters of the earth.
We did not weave the web of life, we are merely strands in it.
Whatever we do to the web we do to ourselves." Chief Seattle
