It was in 2018 that I met this wonderfull man Jos van Geel. He is gifted with the ability to receive messages from nature. For a few years now, he has been channeling sacred places around the globe, mostly mountains. I was prevelaged to receive some of the messages. Connecting with these mountains trough meditation I was inspired to create a mandala for each one of them.
“It has always fascinated me to seek contact with guides and elements of nature. It started out of a kind of childish curiosity. Contact with what surrounds us quickly made me aware that there is more than you perceive, that everything is ensouled, that everything is alive and has consciousness. I wanted to know how they live and how I, as a small piece, fit into the fascinating puzzle of “the bigger picture.”
