“Before we invented civilization our ancestors lived mainly in the open out under the sky. Before we devised artificial lights and atmospheric pollution and modern forms of nocturnal entertainment we watched the stars. There were practical calendar reasons of course but there was more to it than that. Even today the most jaded city dweller can be unexpectedly moved upon encountering a clear night sky studded with thousands of twinkling stars. When it happens to me after all these years it still takes my breath away.”
~ Carl Sagan
We’re on retreat right now, and one of the many activities we do are channelling nights where I bring my guides and energetic friends through to speak to the group.
There are always plenty of interesting new perspectives and new information and I thought I’d share one of them here this morning.
Silith shared with us the importance of moonlight and starlight for the human body. We are all aware of the need for sunlight and how this creates Vitamin D. Now Silith has reminded us that once upon a time humans had regular time under a night sky too, and that we have evolved needing these energies which are particularly important for our hormone production, mental health and eye health. Both moonlight and starlight are essential to our wellbeing.
How long has it been since you stood under a night sky?
Sending much love to you, Nicole ❤ xx
Wow, I didn’t know about standing under the moonlight for our health. I’ve been busy standing under the sunlight instead. Thanks for the tip. My daily to-do list is growing! XXX
