I am the nonphysical sentience of this planet — simply put, I am the planet Earth. I am the body and the soul of the planet you currently inhabit. My sentience guides and enlivens all that surrounds the planet as well as all that is upon and within her. My sentience animates the air you breathe, the energy you burn and the water you drink. My sentience — the most aware, advanced and attuned aspect of my being — is that which directs these words. Although many believe in a sentient or feeling Earth, not all are attuned to her. Channeling offers a unique advantage in this respect, because it allows the transmission of vibrations and impressions to be communicated as language.

Today two priorities guide my sentience. The first is to erase the perception of separation that seems to threaten the planet. The second priority is to awaken and expand the collective consciousness. It is my hope that you will find my message meaningful and that you will continue to develop an appreciation for who and what you are.
