Calling the Storm...

The following is an excerpt from our upcoming E-Book,
"The Medicine of the Circle"

Medicine is not limited by circumstance.
It lives in the thunderstorm as much as the sunlight. All directions are present in everything, all it takes is reflection and interaction to recognize them. Wherever you are, you always stand in the center.
Take the thunderstorm for instance. The clouds gather and the expectancy rises in the air. You look up and listen to the thunder beings drumming their song. You hear the sound and tap your feet on the earth and drum in return. To the South, the Lightening beings flicker and dance before your eyes. You turn and dance in return. To the west, the rain spirits fall down in a sprinkle, soon to turn into a small deluge. You feel them on your skin and give thanks for the touch. To the North, mother earth call the rain down to her, to nourish the plants and give the animals drink. You sing right along with her and call the rains. The animal kingdom is seeking shelter but the birds are still singing the rain down too. You offer to the plant kingdom corn and tobacco. You thank the elements and the kingdoms for coming together in such a way... and appreciate your own witness of the storm.

The *action* of Interaction is the difference, the reverence required to see the medicine wheel in all aspects of your being is all part of our purpose for being here. Offering, dancing, drumming, singing, observing, honoring, thinking…these are all ways our ancestors walked through each day. These actions are what make our Earthwalk real and true in the moment. We are *supposed* to have relationship with the elements and kingdoms and all whom we share this walk with.

Without the interaction or the *relationship* with our world and humankind and all that is offered to us, we lose our compass and our path. If you are to have purpose and evolve yourself and the planet, (for why else would you be here at this time and place?)…you must be part of All That Is.

…and since there is really no separation anyway…Why not dance in the rain and bless it?!
A-HO!

February New Moon 2, Mercury Retrograde 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 !
