PRIMARY INTENT: Consider how consciously and fully we breathe as a barometer of how consciously and fully we live.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Initiation. Consider that the purest form of initiation into the sacred and divine mysteries is conducted not with outer tools, intricate words, symbols, outwardly applied modalities, or constructed mechanisms - but rather with what is already freely available and incorporated into the body of those being initiated - like our breathing.
HEART INTENT: Breath. Consider that as it is the breath which officially initiates the life experience of a human once leaving the womb, that breath in that moment is therefore the medium of initiation. Consider therefore that when we are ready to initiate a new phase in our personal unfolding - we are benefited greatly by our accompanying this moment with full and conscious breathing.

INTEGRATION & INDIGENOUS
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that through addictively approaching our life experience through the abstract complexity of the mental body we have made fantastical and complex that which is really very simple and obvious.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Integration. Consider integration as the experience of resolution that unfolds when we remove the word 'heal' from our vocabulary, and in its place we use the word 'embrace'.
HEART INTENT: Indigenous. Consider that once upon a time the only 'Light of the World' was the sun in the sky. Consider that this was a time when there was no light in the darkness, other than the moon and the stars - and if they were not visible - nothing was. Consider that one day, the 'Light of the World', in the form of fire, came to earth in a manner that enabled us to have warmth, hot food, protection, and visibility in the darkest of nights. Consider how we first sat together around this fire at night - this representative of The Light of the World - and through its illumination we built a world - a world now so complex that it has lost awareness of whence comes 'The Light of the World' that made it. Consider that those who are authentically of indigenous consciousness are those who remember that the coming of The Light of the World into creation is not a fantastical religious story - but that it is indeed a tangible, primal event, recalled experientially each time we spend all night together or alone around the fire. Consider that there is no need to fear what will happen when 'the light of the machine' eventually fails humanity - for at this time an awareness of the truth and love of The Light of the world shall return fully into the human heart again.

PATIENCE & ANSWERS
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that there is seldom a question sincerely asked within the heart that is left unanswered - however - there is also seldom a relevant answer that arises according to the imposed mental schedule of the head.
HEART INTENT: Patience. Consider that patience is not a state of waiting, but rather a trusting resonance born of felt-knowing. Consider that patience arises naturally within the realization that there is a dedicated time and place for everything to be made manifest and known in the flow of creation. Consider the resonance of patience effortless to embrace once we discern the difference between 'what we want' and 'what is required'.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Answers. Consider that the questions arising within us about the nature of our personal journey through this world do so so we may consciously and sincerely ask them, not so that we may attempt to mentally answer them. Consider that a question, when asked internally through the heart without any attempt to answer it mentally, becomes a powerful causal activity. Consider that asking in this manner automatically initiates the answer as an inevitable integrated physical, mental, and emotional encounter arising organically within the natural flow of our human experience. Consider that it is "ask and receive", not "ask and go get". Consider that all relevant answers to the unfolding of our experience are given, not gotten, and so require receiving, not getting.

CONFLICT & CLEANSING
PRIMARY INTENT: How does our perception of our human experience transform when we remove the word 'conflict' from our vocabulary and replaced it with the word 'cleansing'?
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Conflict. What is conflict when we do not take it personally?
HEART INTENT: Cleansing. What is cleansed when we are able to laugh about a past event which initially appeared to us as a conflict?

CEREMONY & INSIGHT
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider the long-term benefits of installing the ceremony of first fully digesting any personally received insight until it weaves its resonance into our moment-to-moment behavior before selling it cheaply to another for the price of gaining momentary attention.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Ceremony. Consider that one of the primary intents of ceremony is to invite us into feeling as connected as possible with every facet of the life we are living. Consider that when we describe any experience we encounter as being 'magical' or 'mystical' or 'spiritual' or 'shamanic', it is because of a particular dimension of feeling it awakens within us. It feels different to our mundane experience. Consider that when the primary focus of our moment to moment experience becomes to feel our encounters as deeply as possible - then we automatically invite ourselves to live our life as an ongoing ceremony.
HEART INTENT: Insight. Consider that whenever we receive an insight that impacts us powerfully, in a manner that is life-changing, that the resonance of this impact is most prominent in how it causes us to feel. Consider that when we do not realize this, we may inadvertantly ride this insight into avenues of mental understanding, by thinking deeply about what it means, etc. Consider that this is likely the point at which the resonance of the insightful moment collapses into a diluted form. Consider that this is why we may feel we have lost the mojo of an insight when explaining it to another - because although the mental understanding we gain from any insight may easily be communicated - the felt-impact of initially receiving it seldom can. Consider that when we trade the gradual digestion process of first drinking deeply of the felt-impact of any insight for the instant gratification of communicating a mental understanding of it to another - we inadvertently evaporate its significance within our lives.

TRANSITION & GROUNDING
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider that the only daily practice worth remembering, is to remember daily that which requires no practice.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Transition. Consider how everything within our unfolding human experience exists within a state of continual transition.
HEART INTENT. Grounding. Consider that nothing accomplishes grounding quite like experientially remembering that which knows no transition.

POWER & INSPIRATION
PRIMARY INTENT: Consider the inspiring power that arises when we are brave enough to hold a vision of possibility, not probability.
VIBRATIONAL INTENT: Power. Consider that when we are emotionally upset by anything it is because an unintegrated memory of past trauma is being triggered. Consider that the moment this triggering occurs we reflexively enter altered states of reactive consciousness - reactive states we have labeled fear, anger, and grief. Consider that most of us only regain an authentic state of functioning once these altered states pass - and then are often ashamed or regretful as to how we conducted ourselves whilst impacted by them. Consider the power inherent in remaining aware that we are in an altered reactive state while moving through the resonances of these surfacing unintegrated memories. Consider that this in no way stops or changes the experience we are moving through - however - it does transform our interaction with it from reflexive reactivity to considered response. Consider that in this day and age maintaining empowering awareness whilst traversing altered states is a prized art form worth exercising.
HEART INTENT: Inspiration. Consider that how we engage our experiences is modeled for us by those around us throughout our childhood. Consider that through their example they inspire us to behave the way we do. Consider that the reflex that we are to react negatively when the events of life do to not go 'our way' is one of the behaviors we unconsciously incorporate through this type of inspiriation. Consider how, when we do not know where someone else is, or why they have not shown up as arranged, we just about always assume the worst. Consider how, when faced with any sudden uncertainty, we assume the worst without even considering alternate possibilities. Consider that those most inspirational right now are those who hold visionary awareness throughout the transformative times in which we live - those prepared to embrace the possibility that: 'the current spin cycle does not mean we are all spinning out' - but rather that 'the current spin cycle means we are finally rinsing out the deliberately surfacing traumas of the past so that we may emerge from this experience a species cleansed beyond belief'.
