Aloha !
This morning , Johnathan , kumu hula , came and blessed my room . He said several days ago, " I'm going to raise the roof ! " as he threw his hands up into the air. I laughed as he is capable of raising the roof with his Hawaiian chanting. The loft where I live is right above Guest Services . Yes, if he raised the roof , the guests at Kalani would wonder what the heck was going on upstairs .
So, as requested by Johnathan , I got all my ' people ' ( all the ladies that lived in the Loft ) together and met in the Loft at the appointed time. Beth started by burning sage . We left the Loft together while Johnathan was ' clearing ' and blessing the stairs leading up to the Loft. Johnathan had a small bowl of pink salt granules that we each took a few grains of, and placed it in our mouths. As the pink salt dissolved in my mouth , I felt that the darkness too was dissolving into the Light. One by one , he anointed us with water , dipped with an arrangement made from ti leaves and ferns . He anointed us on the tops of our heads , our shoulders , brushing lightly along our bodies , and our feet . Yes, we got wet ! He anointed the door way leading into the Loft , touching around the door frames , splashing cleansing water everywhere. As we entered into the Loft , he started chanting and sprinkled water everywhere with his ti leaf bouquet. He anointed all the door ways to our rooms , the common area of the Loft , and went into my room . He sprinkled cleansing blessed water on the floor and on bed .
We all sang and chanted this prayer together in Hawaiian .
E ho mai
E ho mai ( i ) ka 'ike mai luna mai e
O na mea huna no 'eau o na mele e
E ho mai, e ho mai , e ho mai e ( a )
Give forth knowledge from above
Every bit of wisdom through this song
Give forth , give forth , oh give forth
( Aunty Edith Kanaka'ole )
Yay !!!!!!!!!!!! My living space is cleared . My room is completely cleared of the darkness that was there from the first second I stepped foot into the doorway on May, 14th, 2012 . The intense darkness was suffocating . The physical presence of the darkness left several days ago and now , my room is flooded with intense loving Light . Beautiful pure gentle loving Light.
I feel so very honoured that Johnathan gave me this Hawaiian blessing. He blessed and cleared my living space. I am experiencing Hawaii the Hawaiian way.
With much aloha ,
