Synchronicities

Look at how far we have come. Whichever side of the aisle we are on, we’ve been educating ourselves concerning our country and talking to eachother about our concerns. Not just complaining about our government as what used to be the case. We are so much more sophisticated in our thinking and discernment. We are connecting dots with ease. Instead of sitting back and complaining, we now know our stuff and are speaking out about it. Our noise has become a roar… and not a dull one either.

Something feels new in our world and not an insignificant something. Change that feels to me like an overlay that manages our world with an unmistakable newness. No matter what it is, we each will stay strong in ourselves, standing firmly on the rock.

I am being told to pay attention to synchronicities and coincidences. To allow them in our lives and be willing to participate in them for someone else… to be the Angel that shows up just in the nick of time. But it’s also how spirit talks to us in our lives. A synchronicity can be so blatant as to catch our attention informing us that, a) there is a lesson to be learned here, or b) something significant is about to happen so pay attention. Have gratitude for them. The more we acknowledge our interaction with our helper family in the quantum, the more it will happen for us, something very worth cultivating. Life is becoming much more robust. Instead of life happening to us, we are happening to life!

I am so grateful to everyone in my life now and everyone who has been in my life leading up to this NOW moment.

Be the change. Believe.

Putting a lemon wedge or splash of lemon juice in your water is a great way to break up congestion and cleanse liver and kidneys. Even though it’s fall, there’s still some lavender around and if you’re lucky enough to have some dried, you can try this recipe from Taste of Home for Lavender Lemonade.

  • 6 to 7 cups water
  • 1 cup sugar
  • 1-1/2 cups fresh squeezed lemon juice (about 6 large lemons)
  • 2 tablespoons dried lavender flowers
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • Ice cubes
  1. Bring 2 cups water and sugar to a boil. Remove from the heat; add lavender. Cover and let stand for 2-4 hours.
  2. Strain, discarding lavender. Stir in lemon juice, vanilla and remaining water. Chill; serve over ice.

Pulling Together

A project is like a new child. You cover it with nurturance and guidance and protection until it matures enough to take on a life of its own. Until it gains momentum you watch over it and carefully keep it on track. Then comes the point when the fledgling project is ready to walk on its own… scary… but with prayers and quiet reserved vigilance, things work out just fine.

My coffee-slurping pre-daybreak contemplations took me to a stage in our journey where a multitude of details have been unleashed. The kind of details that contain facts and data. A cloud of them. I was reminded to remind everyone to shine their light from within themselves. Stoke your flame, get your lamp lit and shine it brightly. All details become illuminated with God’s Light. When we shine our light, with that spark of God inside us, all nooks and crannies and corners are seen. God’s Light, shining through us containing a divine intelligence magnetizes all those data-points according to God’s plan. All the intricacies of those details synchronistically attract together like puzzle pieces. The light lifts them to a higher vibration, for Light-infused truth and healing. This gets harmonized with the flow of Mother Earth’s rise to prominence… always with support for our loving Mother.

Be the change. Live as if our bright destiny is coming to us right here and NOW, not somewhere off in the future. We’re ready for this. Keep fighting by speaking up and shining brightly. Keep rising up. When we can recognize eachother by the Light inside us, then we know we’ve made it.

Wonderment

Unsatisfied with things as they are, we are reclaiming our journey with the Earth. To take up the reins and steer a course forward into the mysterious and the magical.

“Some day you will be old enough to start reading fairy tales again.”
― C.S. Lewis

Wonderment opens doors and deepens experiences. It enriches our day to day adventures, coloring our landscape and nourishing our spirit, making us feel like winking at eachother again.

Our human family is going through a growth spurt. We are maturing fast. Growth spurts typically aren’t very pleasant, and near the end we realize that our pants no longer fit.

“Even darkness must pass a new day will come and when the sun shines it will shine out the clearer.”
― J.R.R Tolkein

Barely resembling our old selves, our compass has been set on true north, living as our true selves, the eternal being that we are, creating in the eternal now.

“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”
― Emily Dickinson

The Magical NOW

All the work we’ve been doing is making a difference. All the rummaging through stuff we no longer need, and then discarding, has given us some breathing room. Our housecleaning is paying off. When we do the work to clear ourselves out and lift ourselves up, we are enabling a new expanded awareness to come forward. We’ve typically been surviving by establishing habits to get ourselves through our day. That used to work for us, but now it may not because we’ve gotten ourselves stuck in a rut. If we mix up the order of that which we normally do, or change how we do them, we are forcing ourselves to be more mindful instead of running on autopilot. We are shifting from routine living to one that is interacting with the magical NOW.

The starting point to living as a conscious creator is to step out of the dream and bring your conscious awareness forward independent of the Maya (the dream.) To live by The Tao, also called The Way, is to live as an eternal being having a temporary experience as a human. The typical things that frustrate us don’t because we are no longer buying into the illusion. We just will not want to pick up the same old drama. Instead of complaining about not getting what we want, we are empowered to create it. What is the thing blocking our way? Old anger, hurt, resentment, fear, shame and regret. What is the answer? Forgiveness. When we forgive we are untethering ourselves from being karmically shackled to an unhealthy situation or a person with tendencies of a lower vibration. We don’t have to play it out because we have called in grace. The whole situation becomes flooded with God’s benevolence, love and mercy and we become free souls once again. Grace is The Way.

The Great Way is universal; it can apply to the left or the right.

All beings depend on it for life; even so, it does not take possession of them.

It accomplishes its purpose, but makes no claim for itself.

It covers all creatures like the sky, but does not dominate them.

All things return to it as to their home, but it does not lord it over them;

thus, it may be called “great.”

The sage imitates this conduct:

by not claiming greatness,

the sage achieves greatness.

Lao-tzu, The Tao, Verse 34

I pulled a card from the beautiful oracle card deck The Secret Language of Light. It is the 21st card named Soul Tree. It shows the tree of life springing up from the Earth as an Angel. The wisdom for this card inspires us to connect with nature and see trees as physical manifestations of Angels, to interact with them by asking questions and listening for answers with an open heart. They remind us to stay rooted in our strength no matter what may blow around us.

“When you know that trees experience pain and have memories and that tree parents live together with their children, then you can no longer just chop them down and disrupt their lives with larger machines.”

Peter Wohlleben, The Hidden Life of Trees

The trees right now are trumpeting a time of housecleaning. Their fiery foliage heralds a time of discarding lower vibrational energy, dusting off our wings and flying to new levels of experience. They coax the Angelic part of us to shine forth with a Light that is uniquely our own. Trees teach us to become the Angels of our better nature because we have cultivated the strength and compassion to live in harmony with nature as intended. They inspire us to live consciously aware and fully engaged in the magical NOW.

Sewing Seeds of Love

At this point in our journies, The Great Awakening has turned into “The Great Cleansing,” cleaning out large chunks of old anger and regret. The rest is dissapating as we become inspired to step into new roles and work on new creations. We’ve sown seeds and if we’ve been humble and diligent, they are good seeds. We are contributing to Earth’s Song of Life through our hands, our bodies, our heart, our thoughts and feelings. Being in the flow of life is to breathe life into our work and sow seeds with care for how they will someday add to the overall joy. To work with love is to give the most precious gift to the world. Work is love made manifest. To love your work and doing whatever you do is a gift most precious.

Through the seeds that we sow and by living in our hope and faith, we have a direct effect on our reality now. When we choose love over fear, our sustenance is magnetized to us and our patience is rewarded. We water our seeds with tenderness and keep the soil cultivated with compassion for all life. We sing to them songs of hope and beauty. The energy of our hands breathes nourishment into our work which travels outward to new destinations where that enhancement will inspire someone who needed that very same thing to sow their own seeds.

Nurture the seeds of your creations with care. Stay on the path carrying the Light. Contribute to the overall beauty in the world. Be Love in everything you do. I’m so glad you are here doing the work of your heart and sowing good seeds. Your presence here is more healing than you know. May all your creations be blessed and may the Light of the Universe always accompany you.

And he alone is great who turns the voice of the wind into a song made sweeter by his own loving.

Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet

Be The Change

Be the change you wish to see in the world. The phrase that urges us to live from the end result of what we are creating. It beckons us to skip all the intermediate steps and live as if it has already happened. Dr. Wayne Dyer calls it “thinking from the end.” That people who do this are connected to a divine force he calls the field of intention. He says that those people can see what it is they intend to manifest into their lives as if it has already materialized, and because they are harmonized with the field of intention, they are exceptional at realizing the fruits of their intentions.

But we have been conditioned for centuries to only see the bleak and the weak. What can we possibly do to change our old ways of doing things? Firstly, realize that we are coming into new times and we have permission to use new tools to do things differently. Secondly, if we work on lighting and brightening the light in our core, we won’t feel empty anymore from looking at the world in a glass half empty manner. We can learn a new skill or renew an old one to focus on igniting our own passions to show others the pathway to the bridge to better living. When we are filled with Light, darkness doesn’t have the chance to get inside and make us feel low.

The 3 N’s of Feeling Hope

News- We are not obligated to be in fear and stress over every little thing that comes over the news. It may not even be the truth of what is really happening in the world, so do not allow a news story to lower you into fear, complacency and powerlessness.

Neutralize Fear- Find ways to bring fear to zero. Fear is part of the old system. It was a way to get through to us in our density in a dense world. But, we are lightening and brightening. We are more sensitive, sophisticated and astute. Also, Love neutralizes fear. Every. Single. Time.

Nature- Try to get out in nature and take in the smell of the ozone, the colors of plants, the wisdom of trees and the flow of life in the natural world. Being in nature restores us to a natural state of being hopeful about our lives.

Reclaiming the simple things that make us feel hopeful again is about renewal of the human spirit and allows us to live as if our highest, best destiny of love and joy is already happening in the blessed Now.

Harvest Goodness

My chilly, before the crack of dawn, coffee sipping contemplation took me to a feeling of some type of divine law of the Universe settling in and taking precedence over things. I’m not sure exactly what has transpired, but it feels very good. It is happening because we are holding and carrying more Light than ever before and there is enough light now on the planet for this next step. The message was to keep BEing the Light that you are, don’t get caught up in chaos and allow things to unfold. Allowing is really an act of love and trust, honoring the divinity within ourselves.

Our creations are going to get a boost. There are Angels that are specifically trained to be helpers and we just need to ask them for assistance. I pictured them wearing aprons with pockets carrying many tools, ready for action, lol. They only ask that you send them love and gratitude in return, our new currency with spirit. I was also left with the impression that our manners are getting an adjustment. Now that we are graduating, we must not whine and complain so much but be grateful, take responsibility and rise up in our thinking frequency. Yes it has been a long hard road, yes. But… if we are going to work with those beings on higher levels, we must rise to the occasion. Be in love and gratitude and try to complain less (myself included, lol- This ladder of vibrational being will become more clear when I post my upcoming article on Dr. David Hawkins’ Map of the Levels of Consciousness.)

As I welcomed in The Light of dawn, illuminating a burst of fall colors, I had the distinct impression that it is a very special crystalline Light that we are receiving. We only need to allow ourselves to embody The Light more. Allow ourselves to BEcome The Light. Yes, the distance between worlds is becoming more apparent. I don’t know that there will be an actual splitting, I feel a more natural, organic shift as we ascend in vibration… but I could be wrong.. and there certainly could be surprises.

Autumn’s splendor sets a stage,
Pumpkins smile for any age.
Crunching leaves, grab a rake,
Warm cider, out by the lake.

Goblins.
Ghosts.
Lurking Skellies.
So many treats to fill our bellies.

Cold noses, frosty morns,
Outdoor fires, keeping warm.
Live life as if you’ve won,
Because The Harvest has begun.

The Hero’s Journey

It’s a theme that is as old as the written story. Our main character, the hero, sets out upon a quest to find something, regain something or right a terrible wrong. His journey inevitably leads him through a treacherous path where he evades plight and peril. He must come face to face with the thing(s) he dreads the most. There is an ego-death of sorts. He loses his naivete and gains wisdom. He grows. His quest is eventually and finally ended with a return to where he began, but now a master of both the spiritual and material worlds. He is now in a state of always becoming, always growing, which usually is just the beginning of our hero’s life now having the ability to live freely.

The Hero’s Journey is really a story of resurrection. It is something to which we can probably all relate in this process of becoming. It is the template of Star Wars, Moby Dick, and Jane Eyre and is found in the works of Ernest Hemmingway, CS Lewis, JRR Tolkein, WB Yeats, JD Salinger, William Faulkner and Charles Dickens. The quest is arduous and by going on the journey with that hero, we are also going through the transformation process that by experiencing the world outside ourselves, we are discovering the world within ourselves. When the hoops have been leapt and the dragons slayed and the treasure found, we come to breathe a sigh of relief as we become masters of both the inner and outer worlds alongside our hero. It is the triumphant moment of the phoenix rising from the ashes that draws us. It is the sense of freedom that allows us to live in the now moment, unbound by our fears and empowered with our freedom to choose.

Looking at the process we are all going through during this shift, because these changes are inevitable, something has probably been torn down or torn out of our lives in the past couple years. We had to let go and in turn, that made room for something new to come into our lives. Something that was more appropriate, for we have grown more than we know. Now we get to level up and live as true creators… and we get to choose what will bring happiness and joy. We give the Universe our order form and follow up with visualizations and affirmations. By raising our vibration and keeping it there we hook it and by living as if we are already there, we attract our destiny to us like a powerful magnet. We can give thanks now to seal it. This is still being in service to God. God did not intend for us to suffer.

“and as He spoke He no longer looked to them like a lion; but the things that began to happen after that were so great and beautiful that I cannot write them. And for us this is the end of all the stories, and we can most truly say that they all lived happily ever after. But for them it was only the beginning of the real story. All their life in this world and all their adventures in Narnia had only been the cover and the title page: now at last they were beginning Chapter One of the Great Story, which no one on earth has read: which goes on forever: in which every chapter is better than the one before.”

Author CS Lewis
The Last Battle
Farewell to the Shadowlands”

Allow the Storm

Morning coffee gently dripping,
Sleepy til I start my sipping,
Close my eyes and start to feel,
And so begins my morning spiel.

My early mornings have been running together lately. It’s like a malaise has taken over my morning quiet time whilst I adjust to colder temperatures settling in. Oh well, I am committed to making the adjustment. Nothing better than sipping a hot cup of coffee in the cold, when there can be no determination between my breath and the steam. If we are willing to see things from another perspective, we can turn anything into a positive. That’s the thing about being a conscious creator, we can choose with intention. In doing so, I am not accepting that I am a victim of the turn of the seasons, I am choosing to be empowered by spiritual commitment, alignment and dedication. Dedication to supporting Mother Earth in her climb, to raising others and coaxing them to expand the Light inside of them. When I remember how many days I spent being dedicated to bringing in the Light despite the constant negativity coming at me from all around, trying to knock me down. When the negativity was at it’s worst, despite feeling targeted, I would do many small things to tip the scales to the overall positive. Those small things add up. They expand to others.

In his book, Transcending The Levels Of Consciousness, Dr. David Hawkins writes about how our progression to an enlightened consciousness is accelerated by a combination of intention plus attention. He likens it to the Heisenberg principle which describes how potentiality is activated to actuality by the consciousness and intention that is involved. What happens is that there is a phenomenon that occurs that is a “collapse of the wave function,” which then produces emergence… or, a manifestation into physicality. Dr. Hawkins goes on to say that the scientific model does not take into consideration the observer’s level of consciousness or intention. He says:

Scientific objectivity calibrates in the 400s whereas spiritual intention is far more powerful and calibrates from 500 on up. For instance, at highly-evolved levels of consciousness, merely holding an optimal resolution in mind tends to bring it into manifestation, as do affirmations. As demonstrated by the map of consciousness, the calibratable power increases logarithmically; thus, spiritual evolution is progressively facilitated by the higher levels of spiritual advancement as compared to the consciousness of the scientific observer which characteristically calibrates in the mid-400s. The influence of spiritual intention can therefore be over one thousand times stronger than ordinary intellectual effort. Thus, the spiritual devotee need not be an apologist to the skeptical materialist but instead merely explain that they are simply applying the Heisenberg principle for the benefit of self and the world.

Dr. David Hawkins, from Transcending The Levels Of Consciousness

He continues to explain that when phenomena appear that are beyond the expectations of logic and reason, they tend to be described as miraculous. So, his suggestion, and I wholeheartedly agree with the theory and as I have practiced for years… expect a miracle, actually expect many miracles, and surrender the control of all possible outcomes and leave them to God and the Universe.

Sometimes the opposite of what we have asked for arrives. The act of wanting to know unconditional love sometimes brings the opposite because that may be the fastest and more efficient way for the Universe to teach one the true and complete meaning of unconditional love. By withstanding a barrage of negativity, and being forced to ourselves BE unconditional love despite what swirls around us, we have accomplished our goal of knowing unconditional love. A spiritual form of aversion therapy if you will. Earth is a fast-track school to expanded consciousness. You gotta be tough for this program.

Allow the storm

And that’s what you and I are and what we do. We beat back the darkness by holding, creating and shining more light little by little in order to tip the scales bit by bit. And we are making a big difference. Be the love that you truly are and create love and beauty in all you do. I am so immensely grateful that you are here and we are together through this time. Love.

Let us not allow to forget,
Nor ever take on any regret,
By every hopeful shining star,
We hereby claim the love we are.
allow the storm

Shine Brightly

Give thanks for all the work you have done on yourself. It is paying off in numerous ways. Beauty has come into your life and with it, also magic. Will it last? The answer is yes. Trust yourself. Trust God. Think from your heart. Pull the Light into your body and carry it like the sacred torch bearer that you are. There is a momentum created on this wave of change and we have surrendered totally to that momentum. Our brighter reality is crystallizing into form and consciousness is continuing to rise.

Be open to a totally new life and beginnings. Let those who wish to play out their old dramas, do so and don’t get pulled back in. Rise above. Seek the highest and allow blessings to pour in.

As a Light Bearer for the planet, no matter what, be the fire of change and shine more brightly.

Just be Love.

Shine More Brightly
