Jack looked into her eyes with such fervent admiration, that he felt his

heart thump with fear and anticipation. Moonflower smiled. Come on,

let's go outside. She stopped in the kitchen to get a cup of tea and

put the cheeses in the little ice box. She was moving slowly, her mind on

something she wasn't saying. Jack found a cigarette in his vest pocket

and lit it from the stove.

 

Outside he sat on the hard bench and let Moonflower have the rocker. I

have to try to make something clear to you, Jack. There is an old Indian

story about White Buffalo Calf Woman. She was a great teacher to the

Lakotas, the Ojibwas, and other Native Americans, centuries ago. She

supposedly came from the stars, the Pleiades, or someplace. She brought to

the people a new way, a practice of the sacred medicine circle, and worship

of the Great Spirit. She did a lot to unify the tribes of that time, to

bring peace and oneness She gave them healing medicines,and a way to

communicate with plant-spirits, and the four-legged animal spirits. Many

tribes were given the tools for a better way of life. White Buffalo Calf

Woman was also very beautiful. Legend has it that some young braves

followed her in order to see her bathing, their lust getting the better of

them. When she turned and saw them, she mirrored their lust back to them,

and all but one caught fire and burned up. The one that didn't burn saw

her change into a White Buffalo. So it became known, that to look upon the

great teacher with lust was very dangerous indeed. I am about twenty

years older than you, and I am no great beauty, as she was, yet there is

always a question whenever there is a male and a female in the same

proximity. A question about how intimate they can be.

 

Jack knew what she was talking about. He was so open in his heart that she

could do anything with him. Jack, I want you to understand why you are

here. Your spirit and your guides brought you here to learn something.

You are doing just that. Somehow I feel you will learn faster if I do not

invite you into my bedroom, no matter how enticing the idea may be. So I

will acknowledge the openness of your heart, and I will help you to protect

it, not use it to control you as some women might.

He breathed in and started to cough. The cigarette seemed to taste

bad, so he ground it out on a stone. Clearing his throat, he said, You

know, I just want to thank you for letting me stay here and for what you

just said. I'm really okay with that. You'll tell me if I get in the way,

alright?

Certainly. Lucky for you, there is a lot of space here. If you

haven't figured it out yet, there is a way of channelling your sexual

energy to induce heightened states of mind. It can also be used for spirit

communication, for healing and awareness. Many visions come when the

body's hormones are stimulated. All these things are part of your

learning. You should know that a lot of the teaching will come from inside

you, since you are gifted with inner teachers and guides. All they needed

was a vortex energy and to get your attention. I am here as a mirror, and

as a protector. If you get too overloaded, then perhaps you can take a

break from this. I'm used to it, but there are times when even I need to

travel away and be in different locations. Anyway, today is a good day.

We'll have some visitors this afternoon, and while we prepare, you can tell

me your dreams.
