“For even more than doers, we are deciders.
And once the decision is clear, the doing becomes effortless". ~Ralph Blum

This month looks to be quite a doozy, as Lucie pointed out in Circle this week. The funny thing is that the challenges will be coming from Within. Meanwhile, we are again being offered the most support, love and encouragement to make the SHIFT to be more aligned with our purpose and true Self than ever.
That doesn’t make it any easier when the shift involves letting go beliefs, emotions, and stories that we have built our whole identity and life on up to now! AND…letting go of all these IS as easy as choice.
The simplicity of this shift is what’s key. The question is “What is it I need & require to BE my SELF in this world?” The answer is recognizing what makes us vibrate higher or lower, that’s it. The only thing we are responsible for is choosing the vibration.
Lucie says right now the ONLY thing we have control over is how we fold the laundry…!

PS – You may feel grounding is challenging. Walk outside for 5 minutes feeling connected through the top of your head & feeling the tap root from your first chakra to the sun in the center of the earth.

Gathering the Harvest of Self

8/20/2014

Comments

All I can say about this time we are living in, right now........ is WOW, just…wow. It seems as if everything is conspiring to speak to us. The universe, the animal kingdom, the planets, …our selves…

This week in circle, we talked about the details of where we “are” in terms of planets, phases, seasons. We are just about to enter a New Moon next Monday, August 25th, in Virgo. The Sun enters this same sign this Saturday, August 23rd, and the last solar cycle before Autumn Equinox begins. This is the harvest, the gathering time. We begin to pull together all we have watered, visioned, created & nurtured. Gathering and receiving all the experiences that support our purpose is what this time is about. Are you ready to receive?

The support available to us is astounding, even in the tiniest of ways. First let me show you the basic energies holding us in support right now: We have a trine with Uranus (Connection with Great Spirit), Mercury (Communication from Guides & Answers), and Mars (Primal Force, movement toward Right Action) – All lining up with a quixunct to Saturn (Ancient Wisdom, Seven Generations), bringing challenges, redirection, adjustments and diversions. Don’t think stops & starts are wrong right now, even with all that is going for us, stops and halts have purpose and reason. All is in alignment to put us in touch with the sacred…and our self.

When something slows you down, ground and check your space. What emotions are manifesting, and where does it take you out of your joy and peace. Check the directions see if something calls to you. Check to see if elements or one of the four kingdoms are making themselves known. I was craving water something terrible at Circle Monday…Ha! It was “faith” (the lesson of the West) that ended up revealing itself to me later this week!

On my way here today, I found myself “stuck” behind a driver going *gasp* the speed limit. I grew agitated and impatient, wanting to be where I had not arrived yet. Then I remembered the part about hold-ups, and took a couple deep breaths and thought about where my impatience came from. It came from a lack of trust (faith) that I was going to get myself where I wanted to be exactly when I wanted to be there…which was NOW. I was trying to control it and do it all myself. I let my grip on the steering wheel relax and decided to let my guides help with the drive. I concentrated on my grounding and working the automobile, but allowed the rest to be taken care of.

….Immediately, the driver turned…all other cars on the road were gone, I sailed through several green lights all the way through the busiest intersections in town! Even when I did hit a red light…I realized that it wasn’t a blockage, just a slow down for safety. I was still going to “get there” and five minutes of stress give or take were only going to get in the way of my thoughts. This way, I glided with my guides the rest of the ride and enjoyed the view and the revelation along the way…wow, right?

THAT is exactly how this energy is working for us right now. It’s right here for us to harvest and receive, if we just allow for it and pay attention. The moments, thoughts, ideas and feelings we catch ourselves in this week are revealing to us more and more about our selves and our alignment with our purpose.

This is a great time to start a new pattern, change old beliefs for new ones, harvest your best self in the moment – While being fully supported by the Universe/Creator.

Once you receive the messages, watch how they reinforce each other. I realize that just the revelation of my feelings of impatience vs. faith is just the tip of the cookie. I’m sure the next week will have me see this reflection is a thousand different ways, big & small. All I can do is stay grounded and keep taking the next step…

Both Circles this Monday (women’s & men’s) were visited by chickadee. By the second circle, they were even flying around inside the tent and sitting on the branches nearby during meditation. The chickadee medicine is “cheerful & truthful expression.” According to Ted Andrews’ book, Animal Speak, there are seven types of chickadees, representing the sacred 7 - Associated with the seven rays of power, seven planets, seven energy bodies of a human being, and the seven energy centers.

These tiny messengers are all around us. In finding our truth, we receive more joy in being here on the planet, and our expression of this joy radiates to All. Wow, just wow. We are so lucky to be right here, right now, receiving our harvest!

A-ho!

February New Moon 2, Mercury Retrograde 2014

2/10/2014

While some of you might know we had two New Moons in January – How many of you know we had an entire year’s worth of experience in that one Lunar Month? Then we enter February with mercury going retrograde…marking this as a time of reflection for the next three weeks. During this time, we feel the moon filling again and we use this container to re-work our dreams and purpose and actions and desires once more… It is as if this Year has already given us a ‘Cosmic Do-Over’ by giving us TWO New Year New Moons!

Did anyone notice how much shifted between December and now? How fast things happened and how easy it became all of a sudden to manifest, dream, and identify things? THIS is the essence of 2014, and now the Year of the Horse. In Native American totem medicine, Horse represents power, strength, and FREEDOM. This year we are Free to follow our purpose …and have the rewards truly appear in ways we have only dreamed.

This brings us up to speed with where we are right now and where we are ‘pausing’ for the next moon phase or so. Consider the previous month-year a preview of what’s possible. Ask the questions “was there more I’d like to add? How do I fine tune this? What do I want to take away? How do I choose my next right action?” Be willing to sit in the vibration of the feeling of what you want to choose for yourself right now. Don’t be too caught up in pictures, because it’s bigger than that. The word is really ALLOW.

“How do I allow myself to have what I choose?” “How do I allow my purpose to move me forward?”

We don’t have to push anything away or bring anything into us – Because we are already full and whole when grounded solidly between Heaven & Earth. Remember as we fine tune our choices and goals, we also fine tune our-selves in each moment. Check your grounding cord at least one an hour. Stiffness and pain in the joints is where we hold other’s stuff so that it doesn’t go deeper and stick in our soft tissues and organs. This time of year, seems to challenge our joints. By staying connected into the Earth and continuously flushing ourselves with that healing salve from the center, we allow for release to keep flowing easily.

This is a watery retrograde and the New moon was watery as well. Emotions and waves will be common. When having a BIG Emotion:
· Check to see if you are FULL/WHOLE in the NOW
· Check your BREATH

All the old directives - would, could, should - all of those are the pieces of ourselves we leave behind. These are old programs that need updating. Claim your power by stating
“With what I know now, I CHOOSE.”
~ ~ ~
For the next 2-3 weeks…
Listen to the guidance and that little voice ~ do what it says without question. (You may get the urge to pull over to the side of the road for a few breaths…it could be all about divine timing, safety, and where you will show up next…so do it.)

Find a way to take a retreat, even a mini-one. But don’t make RULES about what it has to be or what it is supposed to look like. The minute you put anything in a box, it stops the flow of intuition.

Before action, STOP and include your Heart, include your Self…then Do.

Blessings and here’s to the Full Moon on Feb. 14th !
