The Arising Lion Spirit and the Bifurcation of Time

Are we having fun yet? SAY YESS!!!  Life is meant to be a gas instead of a bad fart.

Okay well I simply must roar this out to anyone who can hear it and needs validation about it: 

THE TIMELINES ARE SEPARATING.  
The separation of worlds is in full swing. It has been in swing for awhile this is true, particularly since what has been termed the 3 Waves that have come in in the last year and a half.  Anyone remember hearing about the Butte Fire and others in CA at that time, Sept. 2015? That was a manifestation of Wave #1.
How do you know when this bifurcation hits you?  When you have something potentially devastating and/or incredibly life altering show up in your path, like it or not, with a choice for you to make.  Something so huge and pregnant with unknown potential, loss and pain that, if it rocks your world, you don’t quite know how you’ll face it or who you need to be to do so.  Wouldn’t it be just easier to go hide in a hole and pretend like it isn’t there?

No, not now, not this time, DON’T,
I say.

There is a whole bunch I could say about who, what, how and why things are occurring as they are on Earth right now, and the understanding and story evolve daily for me.  But let me segue to my own current drama, post Butte Fire recovery:




I have just had something occur to really rock my world and rattle me to the core; I decline to say exactly what at this time.  For me to get so rattled isn’t easy, I’ve already been challenged a bunch in this matter. 

Well, what to do, there it is.  To take it in blindly would be akin to suicide, without first discerning the truth behind it.   Usually what happens when I receive a Warrior’s  Challenge is to feel the rage.  FEEL THE RAGE at the intrusion, the obstruction, the domination and control.  Ooooh I hate control and being forced into the position of a victim, it makes me ROAR.  


I often go into a place that can only be called ‘Bad Witch’.  You think I’m joking?

I'm not.  At least I'm smart enough to not act out too much from there, not good for anyone's health, ahem....






Well, what happened this time is, the challenge was so potentially devastating that my higher being said, “Bypass Bad Witch, go directly to Creator God frequencies and stay there in an elevated state of gracious unknown until Divine Truth is revealed”.
Whoa!  Easier said than done, but man o man what has come for validation!  
Basically when you attempt to hold court with the Divine at all times, using the Violet Flame of transmutation, calling out, invoking, speaking to Nature and the Spirit world most emphatically, whispering, communicating from the most vulnerable secret places in your being or screaming at the top of your lungs, call it what you will but it is clear to me that a loving intelligent consciousness does indeed respond.
A Bit on the False Light
This is a very condensed few words on a subject with vast implications.  I am not the originator of these concepts.  Go do your own research, start with the Rig Veda’s 3 Gunas, or Ayurveda’s 3 Doshas, or as a more modern seer Lisa Renee says, the 3 basic subtle but all-pervasive qualities governing balance in all of organic existence.   They are all talking about the same thing.
These subtle forces are characterized as Tamas, the Black force, 










Rajas the Red or Yellow force,


 

and Satvas the White, Clear or Neutral force. 



Lisa says it way better than I and in more detail, here is a very recent article for more explanation.

https://www.energeticsynthesis.com/resource-tools/news-shift-timelines/3082-geomagnetism

So what was utterly revealed for me recently is that, the Black force corresponds to the consciousness of being a Victim; the Red force corresponds to being a Tyrant, or a Victimizer, in service to self only; and the Clear, White or Neutral force is the KEY to balancing these energies, allowing an evolutionary break out of the closed loop system that can develop between Victim/Victimizer roles.  

Which brings me to the Predator, the Parasite.  The interdimensional, multidimensional Baddies that have been attempting to enslave this Earth and her people since Gaia left the Pleroma.  
This would be the Invisible Predator and its manifest minions the nagual don Juan Matus talks about, the force of consciousness who ‘gave us their mind’.  Well now there’s a whole chorus of folks out there, myself included, who understand, who get it.  
Earth has been stuck as an insane assylum/prison thanks to these misguided characters; they/it thinks to take humanity and the planet down as its prey.  How do you like the idea of being someone elses food source against your will?  I don't. 
How have they done this?  By creating a prison-like, manipulated system of energy/consciousness that is powered by negative emotional expression called the False Light Paradigm that is void of the Clear Light, the 3rd force needed for balance and evolution in Creation.  Basically Earth has been hijacked and purposefully stuck in a harsh, barbaric 2 poled system void of the full spectrum of necessary life frequencies for a very long time.  

Because of this we got the whole Civilization of Yuckdom where it seems like the only choices one has in life are to become a tyrant so that you get rewarded with all the tiddly wink$, $ucce$$, $tuff, ‘Money for nothin’ and yer chick$s for free’ et cetera; or to become a poor, downtrodden, unsuccessful, sick, abused, miserable victim.   Sheesh, they both suck as choices. 


And if you buck the system in favor of awakening, unfortunately one becomes a target by said forces of darkness, because they sure don’t want their jig to be up, we are their food source.  YUCK!!!!











Presently, humanity is being herded down a path of their own perdition and enslavement by this False Light system, and agreeing to it of their own free will by a tyranny seemingly bigger than what any one individual or the whole group of us can possibly manage to do against it.

I’m here to tell you that is part of the Big Lie!  The way out of being stuck in victim/victimizer False Light dynamics is to refuse to be either.  No one can make you feel like a victim but that you consent and allow it.  Don’t think I don’t know what it’s like to get hit on on many levels, I do, and likely if you are receiving these words, so do you.

Forget the pressure to succumb to one or the other, that is not the way.  The way out is by utilizing your right as a sovereign being to invoke the Clear Light.  Invoke, call forth, embody the neutral force in the situation that holds the tension of the conflict without succumbing to either pole of it.   

The 3rd force, the Clear Light, completes the trinity of forces and brings the situation back into balanced alignment with the Creator.  The 3rd force is the necessary ingredient for higher consciousness, is truth, is love, is a higher way, is the Divine Outcome for the highest good of all.

Here is a link to another article by Lisa Renee where she writes exclusively about this happening:
https://www.energeticsynthesis.com/resource-tools/blog-timeline-shift/3085-white-or-clear-subtle-forces
It is the way out of a seemingly unsolvable or terrible conflict but it must be sought and invoked, prayed to and for, and called in.  And then one must stay in the unknown until truth is revealed, totally trusting in the unfoldment of the Clear Light, with no attachment to said outcome.

I know, way easier to talk about than to live, but to live it is to know truth beyond the shadows that may be threatening to engulf one.  

And here is the real kicker in favor of humanity’s evolution:  When one person refuses the False Light matrix in any facet and is able to hold the Clear Light, it departiculates the matrix and weakens it for all!!!   Like David against Goliath, one person’s growth and refusal to be either a victim or a victimizer opens the pathway even wider for more to tap into.


The Big Split:  A faction on Earth is going Galactic
Okay this is my take on what is occurring and going to occur in the next couple months.  My sense is, the collective consciousness on Earth has reached the point where frequencies that are too dissimilar can not continue to co-exist.  The balance of the Universe is being threatened, not just earth.  If Earth is taken over, it is said many things will go out of balance and be lost, that is why there is so much interest and cosmic activity surrounding the doings of this small planet.

Some of the seers whose work I read are describing a non-physical wheel-like structure arriving in our solar system, as well as this very same inflection point dynamic of critical choice: 

https://augtellez.wordpress.com/2017/04/06/the-highest-potential-is-the-creation-of-the-new-world/

https://highheartlife.wordpress.com/2017/02/19/aim-higher-embody-more-light-fly-through-the-sun/


https://soulfullheartblog.com/2017/04/01/a-time-of-great-choosing-fear-or-love-happening-in-the-now/

I’m going to call this the cosmic router.  This thingy, whatever it is, is what is going to separate timelines to break deadlocks in energy so that evolution can continue.   There is a potential timeline (that I want to be on!) where Earth/Gaia breaks out of the deadlock of the False Light system and rejoins the positive Galactic and Universal society.  

This is the Ascension of the Earth, where we finally have Disclosure, where the corruption and the False Light matrix are transcended, planet wide, archons be gone, yippee! 

In Gnostic terms, this path is Gaia (the Living Soul of the Earth being) returning to full multi-dimensional consciousness instead of being host to the parasite force that wants an insane assylum/war zone rather than taking Her place as an ascended planet.   For that to happen, humanity must hit a critical mass in uplifted consciousness and must request it as a timeline.

Well, some are ready and some aren’t.   The portion that is will likely move onto an unfolding pathway of increasing harmony and awareness which includes Earth getting reconnected with the various other star races that have been seeding and visiting this world from the beginning.

And the rest who are not conscious of this time of routing are going to have to make the decision of which path to follow on the fly as their critical challenges come up. 

https://www.energeticsynthesis.com/library/bifurcation-updates/2855-bifurcation-planetary-update-12-11-2015
Thankfully this cosmic router is going to help direct the flow of things for us all.  What determines one’s route is the energetic frequency signature one holds and the karma one has balanced.
So in order to not be stuck in victim/victimizer dynamics and heaven forbid be routed to some ghastly circumstance filled with even more control, archons and reptiles, better to stand in the Clear Light, call it forth and be willing to change if IT directs you to change.  But to never again buy into and succumb to the False Light, it’s only path is down the cosmic toilet to be recycled by forces more intelligent than it.



What I have found time and time again, when faced with a challenge by the False Light, is that I absolutely hate being a victim.  It just doesn’t sit well with me.   Then I usually get really really mad and raging, and go into Bad Witch, where of course I realize in short order I’m not a victim, I am a creator.  Only, to take action and work the conflict from Bad Witch takes it into the realm of black magic.  I don’t like to do that.  Not good for one’s health, I say again.  Too easy to get stuck in fractals of black goo, the Tamasic force.

No, the way out is to hold the rage and pain and desire to lash out in check, as a tension of possibility, and balance it by calling forth the Clear Light, the 3rd force.  

I have been doing this recently.  After what can only be called a wonderful restful Warrior’s Winter -- spent cutting firewood, watching it rain, seeking truth by firelight, walking in the woods, being out in nature alone many many days, and not being bothered at all by a most uncertain and unpredictable trickle of an income stream that could have derailed me at any time had I lost faith -- there was a crescendo, a grand finale challenge at the end of all this that has threatened to derail me utterly.

It hasn’t.   The challenge has brought through my rightful spirit name, the name I am to use going forward as an Earth-keeping priestess.  It couldn’t be more perfect for me.  

This is not something I dreamed up with my mind, it came through as a gift in the aftermath of a very ugly recent encounter with dark tyrannical forces.  Those of you who know about my animal predilections should love this, I do:






The name is Lady Lion Paw.  



Warrior’s Laugh !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Are you feeling the energy behind that one?  I certainly do.  My prayer is to be worthy of such a handle!

Which brings me to closing with these words for those who may be struggling right now as I was and still potentially could be.  It seems that the ferocity of the lion is somehow missing or stifled in humanity as a group.  The true lion heart is not malicious, is not evil, is not of the false light.  

Yes the Tyrant is aggressive like a lion, but without heart, cowardly and ruthless, increasingly non-human, in-organic, AI.  

True feline consciousness is one of great heart, I understand.  Lion Hearted.   Courage comes from the heart.  There are so many references and connections out there to the Christ consciousness, the Lion of Judah. 


Seek the balance of the Clear Light in all conflict and the mystery that is the re-emergence of the sacred Lion Heart capacity while in human form will begin to reveal itself.  May my life stream be living proof of this.  

 

Happy routing, remember Life’s meant 


to be a gas, not a bad fart. Arrrrrgggghhfffffff !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Life, Death and Food in the Heart of the Wild Kingdom

Animal path from
the orchard

What goings-on out there on the evening of the 7-7!  Outrageous animal noises in the night, they were all activated.

Well the orchard is in somewhat full swing for not getting any water or much in the way of tending.  It's Animals Take All out there.  I can appreciate how far apart the water sources are and always put some out for them in various spots.  

Last night just as the light was turning golden at sunset, 2 good looking bucks with big racks were making their way to the orchard for dinner.  I startled them in there the evening before on a walk in the pond bed.  They've been hanging out for awhile.  I hope they are both still hanging out....  Beautiful antlers on those creatures, they are magnificent.  Ridiculous that they should be scared of me.

Okay so as background to last night, a few weeks ago I heard these noises coming from the orchard, around 5 am just as it was getting light.  I didn't know what the heck it could be, it sounded like growling, or gobbling, or animals fighting. It was obviously the bear, but what he could be doing to be making such a sustained ruckus I had no clue.  

So I bolted out of bed and started to go down there but then thought better of it in case he was gobbling fruit and decided to get territorial.  He was making so much noise there was no way he could hear me coming.

New baby cats

En route, as the sounds were not ceasing, I switched into Fairy Godmother mode and announced my presence "Good Morning!  Good Morning!" which seemed to disperse the activity and whoever it was ran off and I didn't bother them further.  Neither did I see who it was or what was going on down there.

Well I just assumed he was eating but it did sound like growling and fighting too.

It's been pretty quiet since then.  I had to bring home some cats from the Resource Center when I left my job there, a mom and 4 growing kittens... That usually stirs things up in the animal world, but so far it's gone pretty well.  I'm not going to tell you how many cats I now have.

Shortly before that I lost my most beloved Amon Ra, likely to a predator.

The Much Beloved Amon Ra my sunshine cat,
"Pharaoh", "Curly"

Hard to say if it was the Maha, there are many things out here in the night that like to eat cats.  It's terrible to lose them like that however.

Some people might disagree with me but I give my cats full freedom to be cats.  They have their own door and many windows to go in and out of at will.  They hunt, they stay out all night if they want to, and then they come in and clean their burrs out of their furs on my bed.

Oh I love my cats.  I digress.

So the Maha has been pretty quiet.  Well he was certainly around on the night of 7/7.  I was just getting ready for bed around 11-ish, bedroom light still on, when I heard these horrible sounds outside my bedroom window coming directly from the woods behind my back yard where there is dense forest.

My bedrooom windows facing the
woods beyond the back yard

It sounded like a man staggering and wailing as if he'd been stabbed, then fell to the ground.  Most definitely it was a death wail of a large animal.  And I immediately called out:

"WHAT'S GOING ON OUT THERE!!!"   

Not that I expected an answer... 

So I listened for a while, expecting to hear sounds like chomp chomp (which I did not hear), or something being dragged and then covered with leaves, which I did hear.

I expected that, it's called a kill cache.  It's what they do when they don't eat it all. In this case I probably spooked him off a bit.

It was freaky.  I was wide awake after that so went up to the rooftop to watch the stars and have a puff.  Also because I knew he was around, I wanted to make sure all my cats had a chance to come in if they wanted to, or move to a safe place in the barn lest the Maha decide to stroll through the yard - had I turned the lights off and immediately gone to bed, he may have.  This way he had to wait.  I'm sure what he was waiting for was to eat his dinner in peace, "Go to bed already Krissy Lou!"

And all the dogs in the distance went nutty with that death wail. I heard from a nearby friend that her dogs were all stirred up that night too, acting up at any little thing.

Then later that night, it must have been 4 o'clock, just getting light, I again heard that same kind of growling gobbling bear ruckus but this time at close range, down by my little shade cloth garden area and the big pine trees that I can see from my loft bed window.  It was still dark so I couldn't see any animal forms.

It was a terrible noise, very ferocious sounding.  And then I heard the grappling of big cat claws on the pine tree.  Going up or moving around in increments it sounded like.  Again I bellowed out the window:


 "WHAT'S GOING ON OUT THERE!!! STOP IT! KNOCK IT OFF!!!!" and various other choice things.

I keep this little hand crank flashlight on my window sill, it makes

The view of the tree from my loft

an awful mechanical whizzing noise when cranked, and the light comes on.  So I cranked it up into high gear -- and immediately started to hear this pitiful wailing.

 "Aaah, aaaah, aaaah!!" he wailed, and continued to wail as he ran off, somewhat reluctantly I think, but still he continued to run away, wailing all the while into the distance.

Well I guess he didn't like the sound of that...  Wow what impact!! And from my bedroom window too.

So then I continued to listen for more movement as I was sure there was still an animal in the tree.  Shortly after the bear ran off I again heard loud cat claw noises on the tree, not delicate little kitty paws scratching to come down 20 feet.

Standing at the base of the pine tree,
looking towards my window

No, it was 'claw claw claw', then a thud of something landing that I could hear from my bedroom window even though the ground there had a thick layer of pine needles.

After the thud of impact I heard feet hit the earth again in what sounded like a bound, then a few moments later scratching sounds in the dry leaves and turf.

Forest behind my back yard

Once daylight broke I was ever so curious as to what went on out there.  I peered into the forest, then later in the day went back there -- amidst way too much poison oak for my liking -- and looked a little bit around.  Not too much.  He wouldn't like it if he knew I was back there by his food.  We don't want him coming to my new kitten buffet for appetizers.

I saw nothing back there so went to the big pine tree.  There I found what could be fresh lion claw scratches, not too far up.  It's certainly plausible.

It wasn't clear to me if bears and mountain lions get along -- or not, so I googled it for more info.

http://voices.nationalgeographic.com/2014/11/01/mountain-lions-versus-black-bears/

 Apparently bears have been known to take a lion's kill.  I bet they don't like that.  It could be the bear came across the lion near his kill, and was trying to do just that.  But were they having a food fight in the orchard the other morning too???  Or is it antagonistic enough for them to just cross paths.  The mysterious ways of animals, Lord have mercy!

Well, that bear was not happy when he ran off, crying like a big ol' baby.  Look what he's done to my
favorite plum tree.  We are hoping he leaves the front yard peach tree alone.

That is the animal report.  All stirred up.

Don't step in the bear poop.

In the Aftermath of the Maha

Maha.


What a booger.


We are really really mad at the Maha over here. The big lunk.


Well my confidence in the safe return of all my cats soon eroded as it became clear that 2 definitely weren't coming back.






Soon thereafter, I found tan colored fur bits over by the barn entrance that clearly looked like Bitsy's, and a

few days later out gathering sticks in the woods I sadly came across a black pile of fur behind the trailer. How sad, that was Nanna Bella.












She's my Pretty Nanna Bella


So it was with a lot of remorse and sadness that I gathered it all up and brought it home to mourn over them, my dear little friends and children. It was my fault he got so stirred up. So I've been pretty sad in the last week.






Finally it was time for a burial ceremony yesterday. There is a shady spot in the yard where others are buried, Pye, Miss Grundy and now Bitsy and my Nanna. Laid to rest with much singing of little cat love songs.






"Yes they are, yes they are. They are my Lovey Loves.."
That's my little feline love song, only has one verse.



The big lunk. What was he doing that for. Here's the hard thing -- he comes around mostly because of me. And because small mammals are what he recognizes as food, he probably can't help himself. Especially if he's all worked up over something.


But here's the mysterious part. I've seen lion poop on the lane going down to the lower garden MANY times in the last 2 years. He obviously walks there.


However it seems that it's only sometimes he gets the cats all worked up. There have been maybe 5 or 6



times in many years that the cats have disappeared because he's spooked them. I've seen lion poop on the lane and in the back yard more times than that. So all those other times he's out there and none of my cats see him, and he doesn't see them??


Well they sure are mysterious creatures, these cats. All of them. My remaining dear ones are still quite subdued and on high alert. As well they should be.


He's been around again at night. I've been waiting for him. I've got something to say to him. I said it a little a few nights ago when I heard a single "Arrrrrrggggggggggh" out there. I immediately opened the window and gave him the short version of an extended tongue lashing he's eventually going to get.


Yes, he needs to hear about it. I intend to throw a big ol' hairy fit in his direction real soon, when I hear him out there yowling up a storm. That was just a little fit the other night. Not nearly enough.


What I have definitely learned in all my dealings with Nature is that you have to tell them what you want. Very clearly. Personally I think cats understand PERFECT human language, even mountain lions. They totally understand emotional outbursts accompanied by pictures in the mind.


Maha and I already have mind link, I need no convincing to know that if I start yelling and screaming and wailing, sending him images of my 2 cats and vibing him with "BAD KITTY" -- well, there is no way he could fail to get that message.


Now whether he behaves after that....





This happened once before some years ago. He ate Mitzy my greenhouse cat, and Uncle Pokey. That was terrible. Oh I threw a big fit in his direction. Several times as I recall, when I would hear him at night in the distance.


And after that, he's behaved himself up until recently.


I guess the hairbrush on the tree was just too much for him..... High price tag for that little piece of stupidity on my part.







So here's some mysteriousness: The camera has been set up nearly every night facing the same area where he is most likely to be active. I got one little snip of a clip of him, the tail and hind quarters. Caught him on camera again over near the same spot. Watch to the right in the first 3 seconds.


Maha in the Yard again, fro 3-31-14


What?!! What the heck! How come I'm getting him like that? Where could he be coming from? If he's coming from that direction, it can only mean that he jumped from a spot that is basically in the front yard flower bed and outside my doorstep about 10 paces. Which can also only mean one thing: That he came right on in the front gate.


Cue "He came in through the bathroom window...."








In my house that would not be an impossibility given my penchant for quaint screenless windows.


Well, I guess all that peeing around the barn and side gate where I saw him on the previous video clips paid off, he avoided coming in that area. Used the front door instead.


The good news is, all the cats heard him last night and didn't bolt into hiding, so that tells me something.


He's welcome to come around IF he behaves. They have to behave, these animals. That's the challenge of working with them, they have no idea about human boundaries.








Goes both ways most times. We have to educate each other.


That's the report. March going out like a lion in the yard.

Happy Spring!

How To Woo the Wild Maha

Happy Spring Equinox!

Staying in balance? I hope you all are having as much fun as I am. 

Nails, kooks, cops. 

Lions, bears, hiding cats. 

"Ooh La La",
Fabric Art for the Mtn. Ranch Resource Center show,
"Fibers, Textiles and Old Junk"

Artwork out of fabric bits, bra parts, beads and buttons.

But now for the guts of this blog. My my, it certainly is the wild kingdom around here.   And it's beautiful spring in the awesome Sierra Nevada. All the animals act up in spring. All activated. And some of them get extra encouragement.

Okay so if you have been following my posts on FB you may recall I got this trail camera -- mainly out of necessity, but that shall be the subject of another blog. I've actually wanted one for years to see what's going on out there at night.

Well the other night was my second try and I was astonished at what showed up: 

There he was..... No, not that fool Dean.   It was Mr. Gorgeous Feline Himself showing up -- coming right in one of my silly fencing arrangements that keeps nothing out.

Mr. Gorgeous Feline, The Maha

Of course it just so happened that the day before, I actually saw the Maha in the yard that morning early, when I stepped out.   This doesn't happen very often!!  It's only the third time I've actually caught sight of him.

When he saw me he jumped over a silly piece that used to be a gate. Wow what a big tail. 

When I got up that morning I noticed there were very few cats around. 

By now we all know what that means:

 "WHERE ARE THE CATS!!!" 

He must have been out there prowling around in the night. Later on I realized he was just coming out of the barn when I saw him.  When he saw me he hopped over the fence, right where he is in this picture.


So the next night I put the camera in the front yard peach tree, facing

both the barn and silly fence area, not really expecting anything but hey, gotta try the thing out.


Well well well, check it out. My goodness isn't he just the Cat's Pajamas. What a cat. 

Maha in the yard

They're cats. They are actually in the Feline family. However, they are also SUPREME STALKERS AND PEERLESS HUNTERS, highly intelligent, very mysterious, usually quite solitary and naturally very curious. The nagual don Juan Matus says great cats read us directly. Our emotional and more subtle bodies.

Maha posing for the camera

So there he is coming around the yard 2 nights in a row, and actually the times on these video clips show that he was around during the 10 pm hour, then moseyed off, came back and went in the barn around 6 a.m. the next morning. 

Where the Maha climbs over silly fencing

That dark opening is the barn entrance

To do what, sleep the day away in my barn? Out carousing like a drunkard....



Retiring to the Barn after a hard night out



Methinks he has decided the barn is his new hang-out. They love old wrecks like that to crawl into.





I've been pondering this behavior of course. Usually something precipitates him acting up, although not always. Sometimes just because it's spring; or maybe sometimes because I've done some transgression that wouldn't occur to me, but in Lion World it means something.


There actually was one of those, as I thought about the last days...

A few days ago I was brushing my hair out on the doorstep in the morning sun. It takes a long time sometimes, so I wandered out into the parking area and over to his favorite manzanita scratching bush that just happens to be right there, probably 20 yards from the front gate. 


By the looks of it they've been walking through and scratching on it for years.


But since this has been going on now for nearly 8 years, I can tell which marks are definitely his that I have discovered over time.

So I walked right up to his scratching post, took my hairbrush in hand bristle side down, and smacked it lightly against all his scratch marks, repeatedly. Basically rubbing my hair scent all over his area.....

Then I took a small handful of loose hairs from the brush and wrapped it around the scratches, "Hi I'm Here!!", which is the little game we play. I then went in and forgot all about it.



Until he started acting up noticeably. How timely to get that camera just then. I"m wondering if I'll ever be able to tear myself away from monitoring Maha for Deano down there.



It's now several days later, after the video incident. I got nothing last night. Today was a superb day to go out walking around, seeing what could be seen, looking for potential cat remains and sightings. I feel quite confident that the remaining missing three are in hiding and will eventually come out.

When Amon Ra appeared this morning, emerging out of the greenery like a little lion himself, it totally eased my mind that they are just hunkered down somewhere. 

I heard no feline death shrieks in the night, and have seen no telltale signs or furry body parts out there, so good. It is a bit harrowing where my little ones are concerned.

But for myself, I don't have fear about him. He's behaving properly. So far he has deferred to me when we have come face to face. And he's been very very good with the cats in the last years. He probably gives them a bit of a run for their lives now and again, but I feel he can see that they belong with me.


And I have told him - you eat my lil ones, and it will put a serious damper on our relationship, Maha. The End.

This is what it should look like in the morning

So I'm walking around out there today, down at the pond -- and whoo hoo!! What must go on down there at night! I need a camera at several stations. Lots of good fresh lion prints, there were fresh bear prints -- no doubt coming to see what carnage I have wrought in the orchard this year with my chainsaw.

I just love to put my foot on his prints and feel the contours of those paws, "Hi I'm here Maha!". You think he doesn't get that? He totally gets that.

Then I walked out onto the big pasture to see the orchard. It's so beautiful, I hadn't really finished with it for the winter but its a mega-early warm dry spring so there we are, all budding out.








And then onto his scratching bush to see if anything was new -- and LO!

Looky there!! Isn't THAT just the most blatant feline display!  Do you think it could be screaming "MINE" any louder in Lion Language?


Now we know what stirred him all up! Oh my.

Ooops!

Well, I certainly do know that the animal kingdom takes things like scent,
territorial markings and boundaries VERY seriously. I meant no disrespect to the dear creature, but it was probably more like the equivalent of a french kiss as opposed to a handshake.





Anyway, he seems to have wandered off for the moment. I love it in this last clip where he's coming back at 6 am and goes in the barn. He obviously just walked up the garden lane right where I walk. Which I knew, because I've found poops many times further down. But this barn entrance is right in my front yard.



That's the Lion Equinox Report. With any luck I'll have a good kook report shortly. In the meantime, keep your eyes out for nails and tracks in the dust and all hair implements safely tucked away!

Equinox Blessings -
