Finding inspiration, moving deeper into practice

October 17, 2013 / soulinteraction / Leave a comment

There has been a LOT going on over the past few months. It seems that life is shifting us in a multitude of directions. We are learning to swim the hard way. When we go through the struggles, we get a chance to see where we need to place extra plaster, we get to test the seams of our experience.

I’m personally feeling the call to dive deeper into my own spirituality. Recently a good friend of mine Pheonyx Roldan Smith passed away. I believe when a soul like his leaves the body a sonic boom of energy occurs. He lived his life in the deep spiritual planes, but also reached out to many of us to dive deeper into our own experience. I have found myself sifting through things on his blog www.thocgproject.com. I felt inspired by what I was reading, his journey, the trusting, and the opening of experience, and moving through the fear. I see a lot of my own path in his work. I am also aware of where I am holding back, where I need to trust more, and there is a lot of new energy that I will be bringing through in the next couple of weeks.

“If not now, when?”

That becomes the mantra that plays in the back of our minds when we place that “thing” spirit is giving us, that “thing” that is begging to come in and shift the world. We have to start trusting our intuition. We have to start asking the deeper questions. We have to start honoring our bodies by giving them proper nutrition and exercise. We have to get away from our technology and BE part of the world around us.

I am starting a fast. When I start I tend to go deep into the experience of fasting. I go for an all water fast for a few days as a reset. Starting next week, I am going to do a chakra specific cleanse. Engaging and dedicating a charka per day. This will be a week-long ritual of clearing the energy so that soul conversation and guidance can be more clear. Journaling is becoming more direct. I usually keep two journals. One that I capture my personal moments throughout the day, my personal insights, growth points, moments of reflection/contemplation and planning. In the second journal I focus my intuition into the space around me. I am making it a point to pay closer attention to the news (alternative and mainstream), predictions that intuition is giving me/ and those I am seeing others present, engaging discernment and tuning into the TRUE narrative.

I am also going to be doing a better job of capturing and dialogue my experience here. Videos are coming (yoga, QiGong, meditations and teaching). I need to do deeper, more specific meditations as well. I’m feeling the call to connect to others doing this work. I am also going to be doing a few community projects as well.

The journey is more than just what we as individuals are going through. When we as individuals show up to the work, dig deep, work through the process of ascension we elevate all those around us. We elevate humanity.

You are Loved. You are Beautiful. You are Divine.

Channeled Transmission: Stuck in Darkness, Stuck in Light

October 14, 2013 / soulinteraction / 1 Comment

My guides have been pinging me a lot lately. I feel that we are on the verge of big change. They are bringing me new awareness, and my intuition is increasing. Moving into greater states of trust is where the challenge lies for most of us. Moving into trusting the deeper calling of the soul can often bring up resistance. Life is full of challenge, but life is also full of joy and love. As I watch information come in from a variety of fronts, I am noticing a lot of polarization. One thing we have to be careful not to get caught in things being too filled with darkness, nor too filled with light.

So, what does that mean exactly. We can’t be all “doom and gloom”, but we also can’t be completely “love and light”. The world is a beautiful mixture of each of these principles. We do not want to get so stuck in positive thinking that we deny the experiences that are unfolding. We also do not want to get so trapped in impossibility and darkness that we do not enjoy this life experience.

In the coming weeks I will be posting regarding specific events that are taking place, and will take place in the months/years to come.

We are currently being bombarded by massive amounts of energy. The solar flares over the year have increased in intensity, and we have faced a lot of difficult astrological alignments. Imagine for a moment that we as humans are operating at 100 watts of energy. The new bombardment of energy is causing us to elevate, awaken, and open up. We are seeing this in the new awareness being actualized in our response to many of the global changes. People are also becoming more self-aware of their purpose, their path, and who they truly are. For others, they are not sure how to respond to the changes. They are becoming confused, feeling disoriented, and anxious.

Overculture is bombarding humanity with much more distraction than ever. Technology is becoming much more fantastic and in many ways is taking away even the most simple of actions from everyone. When distraction reigns overtakes awakening, or replaces it with a false sense of “true” connection movement halts. True connection is found in simplicity. True connection is found in the joy shared by human engagement, true connection is found when pen touches page, true connection is found in conversing not texting/emailing, true connection is found when life is shared through interaction with one another.

Technology can serve a purpose, but do not let the built-in distractions keep you away from true connection and purpose. Wake up to your life fully. Give attention to those things that are serving your highest good, recognize joy, find gratitude in the small things.

Do not shy away from the struggle, it serves a purpose. The closer the sandpaper shaves the wood, the more refined the outcome of creation. What is shaping you in this moment? Where are you giving your attention?

This is a beautiful time of challenge and change. The dark comes with the light, find personal balance in each.

You are Loved. You are Beautiful. You are Divine.

Journey into spirit

October 7, 2013 / soulinteraction

A lot has been evolving in my life. Each day brings moments of connection, opportunities to grow, and possibility. Humanity is in a phase of cleansing. Our tests are becoming more tangible, and we are being given chances to step into greater moments of grace.

For me, this is a great time to go back to my foundations, my roots, and the earlier moments that I met spirit along the road to here. Introspection and contemplation are important parts of my spiritual practice. Taking a look at where I am, finding appreciation and then looking at the doors that are opening up keep me moving. Intuition comes in and helps me to discern the path, the door, and the experience. This also causes me to look at the things that I am giving energy to, so that I can see what needs to evolve.

One thing that has been coming up for me over the past few weeks is a focus on my Christian roots. The Bible in particular has really grabbed my attention and my focus. I can remember sitting with my Grandmother and hearing the stories she would share from the bible, and it was in those moments that spirit came into presence. I am going back to this book, and am going to take time to go through it, to read it, to make my own commentary on the text. I am going to do this with a variety of sacred texts, but for now I am giving my attention to this book. I know that many have their issues with Christianity and with the Bible in particular, and the beauty of the spiritual experience is that we are all able to take what we need from the spiritual experience and run with it. I’ll post here some of the encounters I have during this period. I think it is important to go back to our foundation, to keep it strong, and to grow anew from the nuggets we find buried. Life has been interesting, and I’ll be posting some of my personal experiences via this blog as well as articles/channeling/and videos.

My personal spiritual practice and what I am offering to clients is also changing and evolving. I am also planning lots of travel in the coming years, and am putting the manifesting practices to the test in making all of this a reality.

The world has not ended…but everything is changing

What a beautifully chaotic time we are living in. I know that many are struggling at this time. Struggle is part of the process. We are entering into a global and personal cleansing. Life is not meant to be “easy”, but it is meant to be lived… All of it. The perceived good, the perceived bad. Everything we move through happens so that we can engage this life experience fully. We are all experiential beings. We live in this wonderful 5 sense reality and we are being stimulated with greater frequency.

Right now our stability is being tested. The ground is not as firm as it use to be, and that is okay. When we have things taken away from us (jobs, health, money) we are given a chance to move into gratitude. The same people who use to complain about their jobs prior to the government ‘shutdown’ are now in a different relationship to those jobs. Another thing that is being offered is the chance to rise above the moment, to tune into your other gifts, and to create a new experience. Nothing is really as stable as it seems. As a yoga instructor I know that I am just an injury away from not being able to teach a hardcore yoga class. I’ve had that tested, and learned to adapt. We can look at these challenges as opportunities or we can look at them as life pooping on us and sulk away. I am not saying you shouldn’t feel the emotions that are coming up, just don’t get trapped into the limitation spirals. Sit with the entirety of the experience. What is coming up for you emotionally, spiritually, mentally? What are you resisting? What needs to be loved in this moment? What needs to be put on a shelf?

I think too often we as a society get too busy to say a simply thank you to the wonder and mystery of our experience. We’ve learned to take things for granted, and too often do. Now is the time to find gratitude for all things big and small. Find gratitude in your struggle. It is the sandpaper that is shaping you into something wonderful.

Just remember…..

You are Loved. You are Beautiful. You are Divine.
