Seasonal Energy Shift.....


What an interesting week we have had after the new moon….this time of year we are in the middle of great seasonal changes. But, perhaps at this time in the history of the world we are also in the middle of great revelations – about ourselves and how the world has been run for us, certainly not by us.

I have noticed how jaded we are, cynical and more then a little unfocused with all that is taking place around us. But, as many of these things rise up to the surface to be revealed I have also noticed another great anomaly of this current age….

There is so much we just don’t want to know (indifference?) or at least I tend to meet someone every now and then who feels this way about themselves and the world around them. It’s such a sad state to be in!

I know I certainly don’t feel that way….I want to know everything about everything and how it all works and then some. LOL. This Universe we call home is filled with wonderful things just waiting for us to discover, re-claim and re-cover –never a dull moment around here…...

Over the years my body has taken me on this incredible journey (and continues to do so) which only gets deeper, more focused and rewarding with each step of this age old path….however, along the way the single most thing that must be pulled out from these spaces is fear.

Fear, there’s that terrible word again, it has taken root and grown so deeply into the light places of our bodies and minds, that in some instances,  we are completely paralyzed (energy block) because of it.

Perhaps the best way to overcome some of this fear is to take one thing that you are afraid of and talk about it, write about it, pursue it and otherwise explore what it means to you and your life here this time around.

Then, once you have gained some new perspective on it, jump in the deep end of it and see what happens…perhaps it’s time to see where you are at on your journey within and certainly to find out if the hope, faith and love you find inside will ‘float’ you onwards towards your goals.

Rise Up, Rise Up!! Hope Lifts Us.....

Today has been interesting for me - on several fronts. First of all, it was sunny and mostly clear - that's always a good start. It only rained for a short time, so everyone was happy with that. All this rain (all the time) is starting to spoil the party... 

Then I was puttering around the house (actually cleaning everything that wasn't nailed down) and I was watching my thoughts. Something like a door had opened recently for me and I had been deliberately saying to myself - I won't get my hopes up.

And today I caught myself thinking it, saying it and actually believing it. 

Wow - it blew my mind. These simple words - I won't get my hopes up. Are really not so simple, and have proven to be quite dangerous to me, in a poison dart kind of way. These words have the power to penetrate deep into our minds and then cause problems.

And I am talking about big problems - a deeply entrenched pattern of hopelessness, is a dark hole to fall into and tough to get out of. When we are saying, thinking or feeling something even remotely similar to despair, our energy gets pulled down to this level.

So, today I stopped myself as I was saying these words and turned them right around. It is time to get my hopes up. Let them soar as high as they can go. I can also dream, wish and imagine right along with these hopes and let them set some part of me free.

There is always, always and forever -- hope. The day we wake up and realise we have no hope, well - what then? Of course there is hope, for as long as we have breath in us, as long as there is sun (or rain) in the sky and for as long as day follows night....

Never let anyone take away your hope - there are days (and weeks sometimes) that this is all we have - but when we have it - we have everything we need. Because from hope grows an energy so pure -- it can actually pull us along with it, raising our vibration as we move up to meet our dreams.

The Soul & the Well of Hope

It has been quite a week and of course seems like ages since we finished our detox. That's the thing with doing these often, it's not an event, but an incorporated piece of our existence. Something we do, automatically to get the energy moving and to keep it doing just that.

So, there is a lot shifting and shaking for us these days - all thanks to our concerted effort to regain what we have lost, take back the pieces of our souls and move forward in Oneness. Anything you truly want, that's worth fighting for, is worth having.

Energetically speaking you cannot hope to move forward by much or for very long, with only bits and pieces of yourself. Part of the learning while walking this spiritual path is that we are meant to be whole beings (integration) - yet what we start out as is a shell of our former self.

This shell has to be cleared, cleaned and readied for it's ultimate filling up as we journey forward. Of course this is a life's work, an entire process of supernatural proportions that fills our time and minds with it's simplicity. 

Today I feel as if I have come out of a deep tunnel, an excavation of sorts - clearing out the debris of the past. Moving forwards on the path, it's as if this next section will be lit from within - underneath all that cold, dark and heavy energy there is a brightness to be found.

I know that this next leg of my journey is perhaps only beginning - the soul in itself is endless, but with distinctly defined borders, blueprints and maps for the days ahead and a well of hope flowing through the centre.

This well has been uncapped and the water runs sweet.
