Dawning of a New Age

Since the end of the Mayan Calendar this past December 2012, people are awaiting the dawn of a new age of enlightenment for the human race.  This new enlightenment and awareness is rising up from within our souls and causing us to view our lives differently.  We are taking stalk of what works and what does not work.  We are cleaning out the proverbial closet and day-dreaming about new ways in which our lives can function with more love and possibility, while also expecting the same kind of awareness to embrace our world leaders.  This struggle of "awakening" within world leaders is event all over the world, especially in Egypt, Syria, Pakistan and the United States.

Part of this "new age" awakening is the rekindling of the Divine Feminine.  There is a strong female energy rising up from the Earth.  She has been suppressed for thousands of years and now her creativity, sense of unity and community is permeating our hearts.  She is asking us to begin looking around and taking care of each other.  She is asking us to stop honoring the separated ego and use our resources for the benefit of All instead of just a select few.  She is asking us to begin feeling, paying attention and respecting all of Life Force.  For some people, this will be challenging.  Anyone who has had problems with female energy or with women in general (women can have problems with feminine energy too) will find themselves confronted with their dislike, misunderstanding or flat out hatred of the Divine Feminine.  No one is immune.  We all have to examine how and why our world has been out of balance for so long.  We all have to explore the part of ourselves that was left behind and left for dead.

Another aspect of this New Energy is that the veil between the spirit world and the physical world is thinning.  This means that communicating with our ancestors and deceased friends and relatives will become easier.  People will begin seeing angels and spirit guides effortlessly.  We will begin receiving messages from the spirit world and connecting with our animal totems.  This connection will create healing, unity and forgiveness... in other words:  coming together which is the essence of the Divine Feminine.  The living and the deceased can rekindle relationships and learn from each others experiences. 

By no means does this imply the end of turmoil.  In fact, the turmoil of our economy and individual people who are expressing great pain will become more prevalent.  The violence is not over simply because violence has been such a powerful communication tool for so long.  It is time for us to learn a new language and that language is love.  However, learning a new language takes time.  This process begins at home and begins inside each and every one of us.  We need to begin using the language of love within ourselves in order for the violence around the world to subside.  No more beating ourselves up.  No more destructive inner dialogue.  No more treating ourselves badly.  Each and every one of us is a Divine creation of God.  We are the Children of God and it's high time we begin to live up to our True Lineage.  This is not an arrogant thing to do, it's an honest thing to do.  Do you want your own children to live their lives in silent misery thinking that they are not important or valued or loved?  Hopefully the answer is no.  Well, God is the same way.  God did not birth the human race in order for us to be miserable, worried, stressed out, in pain, hungry, violent and so on.  God wants His children to experience outrageous joy, creativity, unity and possibility.  God gave us Life and the dawning of this new age is about embracing Life instead of destroying it.  I don't know about you, but I am excited to see what happens when we all begin truly Living!

Our world leaders will understand this eventually.  They will get love on a collective scale after we process love in an individual scale.  We need to be leaders for our leaders.

5 Priorities for Spiritual Health



I met a woman in a metaphysical shop who was searching for a “love” spell that would keep her boyfriend from cheating on her.  When I casually asked about the situation, she told me that he had been cheating on her for six years and kept leaving her for this other woman.  “But at least he comes back,” she said with a faint, yet relieved smile.  She wore large glasses that hid her face and her shoulders were tight and hunched forward.  Turtling, I’ve heard it called, trying to hide inside one’s shell.  I could easily see the dark loneliness in her heart chakra and I wanted to dunk her in a hot springs just to cleanse off her weariness.  I suggested that she buy a love candle for herself.  She looked confused.  I continued, “Don’t forget to love yourself in the process.  That’s more important than some guy.”  She quickly cut me off, “I know.  I know.   I’ve heard all this… but I just gotta get him to stay with me and then everything will be fine.”  She spent $50 buying candles, crystals and a love spell kit to keep this man from leaving her. 
This woman’s spiritual health was at zero, she was putting herself in the background of her own life and expecting someone else (who probably abandoned himself too) to fulfill her needs.  Instead, I suggested new priorities. 
Priority number one:  The relationship with God/Source. 
#2: The relationship with Self. 
#3: Family. 
#4: Livelihood. 
#5: Community.
The flavor of our relationship with God/Source affects all the other areas of our lives.  This relationship needs to be at the top of our priority list.  If this relationship is authentic, loving and trustworthy, then the other areas of our lives will be the same.  Once our relationship with Source is strong, then we can move on to the relationship we have with Self.  Self trust is vital for a successful life.  It also gives us integrity, spiritual backbone, fluidity and highly accurate intuition.  With a solid sense of self, we have something of value to offer a family.  Once the family is mentally and emotionally thriving, then we have the power and energy needed to develop a bountiful livelihood.  Once our income is secure, we can relax enough to focus our thoughts and hearts on building a cohesive and joyful community.
If one of these elements breaks down, the solution is to go back up the priority ladder.  Family problems indicate a need to re-examine the relationship we have with the Self.  Low self esteem, depression and/or anxiety indicate a need to step back and re-examine the relationship we have with Source.  An individual will not be wholly effective in contributing to a community if his business is failing or her family is unraveling.  The five priorities work together harmoniously and lead us down a path towards awareness, inner peace, stamina, wisdom and joy.  In other words:  Spiritual Health.

Thoughts

I found myself saying something useful to a friend today:  It's the "energy" of our thoughts that matter... literally, they "matter".  So if you don't want something to matter in your life, then love the thought once you recognize it.  Since the energy of our thoughts is what is important, loving your destructive thoughts will have more power than the destructive thoughts themselves.  The love will "matter" more than the destruction.  Don't beat yourself up for having dark thoughts, just love them and that's what matters.

Cleaning House in the Spirit World

From my experiences, the spirit world has much more of an effect on us than we realize.  We are constantly interacting with the spirit realm, like an invisible dance, whether we notice it or not.  Because of this, it is important to increase our awareness and sensitivity so that we know what kind of spirits surround us.  We also need to know the type of energy that resides in the land where we live.  How many spirits from the past might be trapped in the old buildings around you?  How many souls are wandering restless around your yard because their bodies were buried disrespectfully?  Does anyone think about this, or pay attention to the energy of the land beneath their feet?

The spirit world has many layers.  Most people transform into Light when they die and move on to what we call Heaven.  They go through what I call the "spiritual spa experience" which is a deep cleansing and they are re-united with their whole and complete Self.  However, some people fight the process of death and end up getting stuck.  These stuck souls, or ghosts, are still a live, even though they have no heart beat.  Their life force pales in comparison to a living, breathing body and sharp mind.  A ghost's confused thoughts keep them alive and trapped in their old life.  Usually they try to continue living as if they were still inside of a living body and wonder why they can't do the things that they used to do.  Most of the time their emotions are strong.  Grief, anger, fear and so on stays with the soul and re-plays in their thoughts over and over again like a tape recorder stuck on a continuous loop.  These emotions and trapped thoughts get imprinted on the environment and can effect living people.

Ghosts can interfere with our emotions without us even realizing it.  You might have a busy schedule planned for the day with a zillion things that need to get done, but a ghost has nothing else to do but wander around and try to get your attention.  I strongly believe that if we take the time and help trapped souls move on to a better place, with brighter thoughts, then our individual consciousness will be freed up to expand and grow.  I believe that once an entire area is cleared of old energies and trapped souls than an entire community will feel lighter and come together with more love and clear intentions.

Take the time to talk to the spirit realm.  Ask your angels and guides to help you clear your home and yard.  Talk, out loud, to any trapped souls in your area and let them know that there is a better place for them to reside, a place that wants them and is waiting for them to return to Love.  Give ghosts permission to leave and let go of the old hurts, fears, pain and sorrow.  Acknowledge their suffering while reminding them that there is no more room for their burden.  It is time to lay down the burdens and move on to the family and friends waiting for them in the Light.  And let them know that the spiritual spa experience is wonderful!  All they have to do is agree to go.  Angels can help them.

If you are dealing with any darker entities other than ghosts, there are other methods to use.  But that will be a conversation for another post.

Blessings.

The Spirit World and Earth events

Well, I've been feeling the spirit world going crazy the past two weeks.  There has been a lot of pressure in the spirit realm resulting in headaches and migraines as the pituitary gland works hard to integrate all the energy.  It feels as if a pressure is pushing down and building up at the same time, as if an explosion is about to occur.  Now, after hearing about the unrest in the Middle East, I understand why.

The spirit world is made up of thought, feeling and energy and when a large group of people have intense or swirling thoughts, this intensity is felt through the spirit world before it manifests into the physical reality.  Fine tuning yourself with the spirit world and with the Group Mind of our planet is a fantastic way to be prepared for the events that will come our way in the 3rd dimension.
This unrest will not end until spring of 2013.  Just keep yourself healthy, calm and focused on Love, family and community and you will be fine.  Focus your thoughts on what you want instead of what you don't want.  Focus on the Energy of Love and bring that into the 3rd dimension.  Love will dissolve lower chakra chaos.
"The Energy of Love and Inspiration.... It alone is able to restrain and cage the energy of disdain, hatred and rage."  -Anastasia, Book 4, page 11

Different parts of the world represent different chakras (energy centers) of the human body.  As Earth cleanses herself, the cleansing will go through the chakras beginning with the root chakra.  The Middle East and Africa hold the energy of the root chakra and has been detoxing itself for years.  This is a wonderful thing to have happen for the Earth and the human race even though it is manifesting itself as fear and violence right now.  It will help the entire planet if all of us focus on healing and detoxing any root chakra issues of our own.

Root Chakra:  Base of the spine; Raw emotions, survival, fear, money issues, primal thoughts.
     Affirmation:  I Am safe.
Sacral Chakra:  Hips, groin and belly button area; Personal power center, emotions and creativity.
     Affirmation:  I Am loved.
Solar Plexus Chakra:  Abdominal area; Self perceptions, gut feelings, core of intuition
    Affirmation:  It is safe to know.

Other parts of the world hold the energy of the other chakras.  The next two chakras represent personal power, self esteem, identity and perceptions of self.  These are the next issues that will come to the surface on the Earth beginning early next spring.  The second chakra is the area of China and Vietnam and the third chakra is Europe and perhaps the area of Brazil. 

Please keep in mind that the chakra system is NOT a hierarchy and by no means am I saying that any one part of the Earth is better or more advanced than another.  On the contrary, we need our chakras to work together in harmony in order to have a healthy human being and a healthy planet.  A person cannot reach true spiritual enlightenment without balancing and loving all the chakras.  Therefor, the Middle East needs powerful love right now, not anger, fear or disappointment.
Besides, don't we all have internal conflict that needs healing and forgiveness?
