The Power of Emptiness

/ soulinteraction / Leave a comment

Emptiness can be a very scary thing.  For many of us, the thought of being “without” certain things in our life can cause anxiety and fear.  There are other times where we fill our lives with things that serve as place holders for other things, or we settle for less than what we know we deserve so that we can “feel” sustained or complete.  The act of hitting bottom, or coming to a place where things are taken from us, where we take some sort of control and purge elements from our life is an action of entering “the void”.

There are a couple of different ways at viewing emptiness.  We can sit in the darkness and be in dread of moving forward, or we can look at it as the gift of now being able to fill ourselves with “new everything”.  Loss takes us into a process of learning to have to move through attachment, emotions of fear, and we begin to take account of all that we have in our lives. Loss is powerful.  Losing anything that we’ve held onto, or has held onto us for a period of time creates a rift when it is no longer there.  An example that I will use to illustrate this is relationships.   Often times I see clients that are transitioning out of relationships that have gone on for many years.  When the relationship ends, we realize habits, patters, emotions that come to the surface that we might not have been aware of.  A tool for moving through this stage of transition quickly is to write down and become aware of those patterns, emotions, and feelings as they come up.  When we are able to sit with those in a tangible way, it allows us the freedom to examine them fully, and when we want to.  If we leave them in our mind we quickly can distract ourselves away from coming face to face with elements of the self and the parts we play in manifesting transition or loss.

The more important thing that I want us to take a look at is how to transition to a place where we look at loss as a gift rather than a burden.  When we go to a place where we lose, or chose to give up the things that bind us we regain a sense of power over our direction.   Rather than the cup being half full or half empty–pick the cup up, pour it out, and fill it up with anything your heart desires.  Sometimes a half full cup will sit too long, and we become attached to waiting for “something, or someone” to come along and fill it the rest of the way.  Finding power in emptiness is about regaining control of everything in your life.  Pick up your experience and fill it with something.

The first question I ask my of my clients that are in a place of emptiness is:  If you could do one thing for the rest of your life what would it be?  Often times the answer is “I don’t know”.  One of the reasons we don’t know is because we have never been given the chance to “be” or “do” anything we’ve ever wanted.  Another reason is that we’ve often surrendered our ability to “be” or “do” to others either through sacrifice or control.  The idea is to start small.  If you are coming out of a relationship where a former partner controlled every action even simple things as choosing which movie to watch or which restaurant to eat at can be difficult.  Having choice  can create fear when we’ve never been able to go to that place freely.

One simple tool that anyone can do is to create a dream list.   What things can you add to your life that will bring you overflowing joy and abundance?  To not limit the list.  Pick one or two small things that you can do right away.  Some small and simple things can be:  play with play dough, sing a song at the top of your lungs, go for a walk, bake a cake.  More complex things can be:  learn to oil paint, write a book, change careers,  start a new hobby, open a business.  Be creative and free of judgement.  There is nothing you cannot do and everything you do adds ripples to the endless stream of your life.  Somethings you might take on brand new and they will be permanent fixtures in your life, others will simply be momentary bursts of joy and connection.  We have to allow give ourselves permission to go into the darkness, but we cannot give ourselves permission to stay there.  Being in the dark only means that its time to turn on the light, even if it’s just a nightlight, we must shine.

Start today and shine.  Not everyone is going through loss, but these are steps we can take now to make transition easy if we are faced with it.  We can have speed bumps or mountains in our path.  How quickly we move through them will determine on the work we do before we get there.

PBP2012: B- “Bindi” aka What does that little dot on your forehead mean

/ soulinteraction / 2 Comments

Through my yogic journey, I have had the opportunity to take initiations into different aspects of yoga.  Through yoga we also learn different ways to bring a fuller connection to aspects of our practice. The “bindi” is one of the tools I was least familiar with, but now use fully in my practice.   Most of us have seen Hindu women with the traditional red marking on the center of the forehead, and a big misconception is that this marking only signifies marriage.

The “bindi” is also applied to bring awareness and attention to the third eye.  One of my favorite kirtan singers BhagavanDas says it best, “The bindi brings

Bhagavan Das

full awareness to the third eye.  People will look, you will see it when you look in the mirror, and this adds energy to your third eye.”  Just to be completely honest, people will stare… especially if you are male and wearing this symbol.  I personally feel most connected when I take a moment to apply it.  It’s a very personal act of connection with the divine, a deep connection to the third eye center.

There are a couple of important reasons to wear it, and I’ll also talk about application in case any of you reading might want to take the bindi for a test drive:

One of the reasons I like wearing it is not just the significance of the third eye energy, but that it helps me to connect deeper to my spiritual path.  When others stop and look, or even talk to me about the bindi it gives me a chance to share my journey with someone else.  We live in a world where life is moving quickly, and little things like this catch people off guard and it slows them

down, causes them to stop, and connect for a moment.  A bindi can be worn by both men and women.  It is a connection to the divine, and in some ways is an outward representation of that connection.  It focuses the energy into our intuitive center and helps us to focus.

The bindi is traditionally applied with sandalwood paste and kumkum powder. Sandalwood is important for many reasons.  It’s fragrance has calming properties, and when applied to the forehead allows us to smell it, feel it and embrace it.  We know that it is there, and the forehead is where we hold most of our worry, so it brings cooling to our “worry center”.   The kumkum is the red powder that is applied on top of the sandalwood paste.  You can easily find powders in different colors, and different methods of application.  I’ll detail my personal process, and feel free to apply it as you see fit.

Some people just apply the adoration as a fashion statement, and where there might be nothing wrong with this, there are deeper energies present in simple actions.  There are individuals that take yoga solely as a physical practice, but the spiritual aspect is inherent whether you want it or not.  So just keep that in mind when connecting to practices that may have a latent spiritual symbolism.

You can use as a tool to focus your meditation, you can use it to build your connection to your intuition, and it can outwardly help you connect to your spiritual path.

1)  I first take a moment to center myself and I call in my personal deity, guides and angels.

2) I apply a small amount of water to my left palm, and add a small amount of sandalwood powder then mix them with my left ring finger until a paste forms.

3) once the mixture has formed into a paste I take my right ring finger and apply it to the spot right above my nose, centered between the forehead.  I apply it by making small circles, and its usually no bigger than the size of a nickel.  While I apply it I usually say a mantra.  This mantra penetrates into the third eye during the application process.

4) Now to apply the kumkum powder.  What I have found best for getting the perfect little circle is to take the eraser end of a pencil, lightly tap the powder covering the eraser fully.  Then take the eraser and press firmly into the center of your sandalwood past circle.  I hold long enough for me to say the mantra one more time, then release.

Some people apply the bindi without the sandalwood, some use their finger when applying the kumkum, some use applicator kits, and there are many other ways of adorning oneself.  The most important part is finding what works for you, and finding your reason for applying it.

Have fun with it.  Even if you don’t find yourself drawn to using this spiritual tool, hopefully now you will have a deeper understanding of its meaning.  Namaste!

Expressing Peace in Turbulent Times

/ soulinteraction / Leave a comment

We only need to look around us to see that we are in a state of upheaval.  Times are changing rapidly and everyone is moving to the streets to have their voices heard.  Many are also taking this time to go into an internal space to create change within their own lives.  The road ahead might look bumpy, but it is only as turbulent as we choose it to be.  This is an important time to trust your intuition.  The one thing that we have to do is give ourselves permission to be angry.  Be angry!  Get Angry! —  but then allow yourself to move into a state of release and growth.  Why plant weeds in your own garden?  Holding onto anger will only attract more of it in your life.  We are all looking for change, growth, and we cannot expect others to provide that for us.  It is important to have a message of equality on all levels heard in the public forum, but we must first ask “What am I doing to create peace and change within myself?”  Too often we get caught up in the energetic tsunami of others.  This is why we are currently not seeing a unified message within the ranks of the “Occupy” movement.  As time passes I feel that a true, underlying message will begin to bubble to the surface.

Here are a few ways to express peace in your life right now:

1) Say I love you to someone next to you

2) Give forgiveness

3) Ask for forgiveness

4) Smile at a stranger

5) Volunteer and help those that are in need

6) Love yourself fiercely

7) Pray

8) Sing

9) Dance

10) Look in the mirror and love yourself

11) Write a list of all the things you are thankful and appreciative of.  Be in a constant rampage of gratitude.

12) If you feel negativity coming on, pull out your list from line number 11 and begin your gratitude flow.

13) Love your enemies.  Hate, never erases hate.

What are some ways that you bring peace into your life?  What do you do to bring yourself back to center?

Transformation, Taking Charge: Being the Butterfly

/ soulinteraction / Leave a comment

Not sure what is in the air, but it seems like everyone is going through some sort of transition, change, or shifting.   Even those of us that are in a place of spiritual connection are feeling the effects of global energy.  I personally am taking some steps to adjust my life into a state of preparation for the changes that are coming.  It is time that we take back our power, detach from negativity and learn to communicate with our divine nature.   I am going to share my process for the next week with you for a couple of reasons.  First, it holds me to a greater level of responsibility:  The better I am, the better I can be for those that I am of service to.  Secondly, it give you a process that you can take from if you are looking to develop a greater connection to your path.

I am taking 7 days to ground, reconnect, transition, and move back to center.

1)  I am fasting.  In the non-traditional way:  I am eating lentils, rice, raw veggies, water and tea (decaf)– no food after 8pm.

2)  I am going to bed each night at 11:00 pm.

3)  I am waking up each morning at 4:30 am for meditation, prayer and for my cardiovascular workout.  For the yoga I am doing a 27-54 sun salutation repetition.  Each day for the 7 days I am doing a focused meditation on a specific topic, and for that day will use a directed mantra for my prayer.

4)  I am doing a structured evening 60-90 min yoga flow.

5) I am eliminating all sugars, processed foods, caffeine (ugh) and filling my body with as much goodness as I can.

6)  I am going to write at least 1 poem a day, and journal my experience throughout the day.

7) I will do deep spiritual connection and readings for myself, my locale, and global (a few of which I will post here)

Next Sunday I am doing a 24 hour day of silent meditation, reflection and prayer.  I will not speak for the 24 hr time period (4:30 am Sunday-4:30 am Monday).  I will do yoga, silent prayer, and am planning a walk through a local nature trail.

These are just a few of the things I am doing, and I am doing a minimum of 7 days.   I could stretch it out do longer, but it will not be any less that this.

When is the last time you’ve connected spiritually to your path?  What sacrifices are you willing to make to dive deeper into your life, path, and soul work?

Making Stone Allies By: David Salisbury

Making Stone Allies

Michael and I have been delving deeper together into the wonderful world of stone energy work. I’ve been a big fan of herbcraft for years as my personal expertise, but something has been calling me to expand, and make new friends from within the natural world. Energetically, stones work much in the same way plants do. Carrying the stone creates changes in your energy field (aura) that are associated with the properties of the stone carried. Further, you can “program” a stone with a specific goal or intent to add an extra kick to your work. When working with the stones, you’ll find that the longer you work with specific ones, the more potent the power is that they lend you. Here are some of the stones that I’ve been getting to know in my own personal practice lately:

Lapis Lazuli- In my work with The Goddess, this stone really helps me connect. In the myth of the descent of Inanna to the Underworld, Inanna had to give up her lapis jewelry (among other things) to gain passage to learn the mysteries of death. Lapis helps deepen the connection with the hidden world of the deep earth mysteries and the feminine divine.

Labradorite- A ‘higher consciousness” stone that expands our understanding of “the bigger picture”. I use this stone for ascension magick and work with contacting higher beings on both the etheric planes and the angelic realms.

Aquamarine- A lovely seafoam color stone that embodies all the aspects of the water element: love, compassion, understanding, healing, and intuition. Sacred to Venus, who was born from the seafoam washed ashore. The physical embodiment of beauty and grace. I charged this stone with blessed holy water, rolled in natural sea salt.

Onyx- Deep black, like the eyes of the fierce Crone Goddess. Onyx is extremely protective and is related to the primal survival instinct in the human body. I recently made a necklace of onyx beads, which I feel has strengthened the protective layer of my field. Onyx is a “return to sender” material and ensures that any ill will sent to you will be deflected back from whence it came. Charge your Onyx on the dark moon (tomorrow, April 13th) for maximum potency.

Clear Quartz- Probably the most popular stone for many years now. This is an all purpose stone that can be used the amplify the energies of any stone around it. I have a large clear quartz on the center of my altar to help me focus and direct energy with laser-like precision. Though I think you can charge this crystal anywhere, I find it most potent to leave it sitting in direct sunlight outside, which cleanses and charges it at the same time.

Rose Quartz- Michael and I exchanged heart-shaped rose quartz’ on Valentines Day. The Lovers Stone, brings understanding to couples and strengthens bonds. It also helps open the heart chakra to self-love and the love of divine beings.

Those are just a few, and I look forward to developing deeper relationships with my new stone allies. Soon I’ll start adding them in with my herbal charms, and we’ll really get the party going!

Keeping Your Eye on The Prize by David Salisbury

/ soulinteraction / Leave a comment

Visualization is not a foreign word to anyone in the new age community. We see it pop up in instructions for meditation, pathworking, spell work, and a great number of other things. How many times have you heard the phrase “now I want you to imagine in your mind’s eye…” in a self help CD or even at yoga class? It sounds easy, right? Just imagine it in your head and POOF, you just practiced what is called “intentional visualization”, also called “creative visualization” or “mindlight”. Though people don’t talk about this very often, most people find that it’s not as easy as you may think.

Just as anyone with experience in meditation can tell you, it’s a concept that’s so simple yet can be a pain in the butt to get right if it doesn’t come “naturally”. Anyone can sit still and breathe, but can everyone keep their mind clear, their soul focused, and their brain-chatter quiet? Usually not. The same goes with visualization. If I tell you to imagine a bright red apple in your mind, what happens? OH, right there, you just did it! Now I want you to imagine the apple and only the apple. Now background, no thoughts associated with it, and no other meaning to it. Gets a little harder, doesn’t it.

For visualization to be effective and powerful, we need to do more than just “imagine it”. We had good practice with this by playing make-believe as kids, but as our hardened adult minds grew, our ability to see things in the mind, in the astral, shrank. Let’s try the apple again, but this time give it a little more “oomph”. When you see the apple, imagine how it would taste to you. Let your mouth salivate as if it’s right in front of you. How does it feel when you hold it in your hand? What does the crunch sound like when you take a big bite? By doing all of these things, we are engaging all of the five senses (plus our 6th) to bring the apple out of our mind and into the astral. And what happens in the astral, takes formation on the material. Speaking of that, don’t be surprised if you find you crave apples for awhile after doing that exercise! Remember that when we visualize, we are putting a thought into the universe, an energy that has a body. A prayer would be like the “soul” of the visual body. It helps move it forward and creates change in a tangible way much quicker. Next time you pray, visualize the intended outcome while you do so. See it happening in your mind like a movie. You can stop, rewind, and fast forward. Just remember to not let images of doubt, fear, or failure cloud your work or you’ll be putting road blocks up that your work will have to drive around before it can reach its goal.

Now that you have a basic understanding of the inner working of visualization, try it! If you find it’s difficult for you to imagine an image you’re not alone. Practice makes perfect. If you can’t clearly imagine the movie scenes, go back to the apple, or any simple image. It will come to you.
Meanwhile, remember to keep your thoughts in good order in your day to day life. Just as we can visualize things for our benefit, we can do so for our hindrance as well. When we imagine negative things, we’re essentially sending curses. And it would be silly to curse ourselves, wouldn’t it? When you see something negative, try thinking to yelling “cancel, clear!” and imagining a big red X. This can help cancel out your thought.

Do you have any tips or tricks for creative visualization? I’d love to hear them!
Blessed Be,

David

A Personal Story of a 10 Year Journey by David Salisbury

/ soulinteraction / 3 Comments

The air was cool but fast, as it whipped through the woods on a clear early-December sky. The soft waves of the stream brushed up against the rocks. Some of its cold droplets fell on a collection of small cloth and paper nearby. The young boy took in the scents and sounds of the chilled woods around him. Inhaling deeply, savoring each cleansing breath, just as the book instructed him. As he found his place of center, looking upward he began the words. “I dedicate myself, in this place that is not a place, in this time that is not a time, between the worlds but in all the worlds.” Pausing to breathe again he continued, “I dedicate myself, with perfect love and trust, with honor and reverence, to the great spirit which animates all things: earth, air, fire, and water”. The boy uncapped a small vile of sweet scented oil and anointed his forehead, then wrists. “By the earth that is her body, by the air that is her breath, by the fire of her living spirit”. He let out one last exhale…”So mote it be”. The boy closed his eyes and felt the wind whip up, stronger, and with more intention blowing out the small candles of the circle. The branches of the tree’s whistled and sang. The woods were speaking. Everything was alive, vibrating with energy and life. Connected, in tune, and with purpose.

And so began my journey on the path of The Goddess, the path of the Witch. It is hard to believe that ten years has gone by since that December evening, the night of my “Dedication” to the Old Ways, as we call it. It is hard to say exactly what called me to this religion. I don’t think I chose it, I think it chose me. I didn’t know many others, save for a few who pointed me in the right direction when I wanted to learn. I just knew that there was something “more”. I was always fascinated with spiritual things. I prayed and attended Christian youth groups as it honestly did interest me in general, but there was no connection. Religion means alignment and connection, and I didn’t feel like I was aligning myself with anything. I would best describe my past practices and spiritual upbringing as “worshipping air”. There was no substance, no form for me. I craved more.

I was lucky enough to have a series of people  placed into my life at that time to point me in the right direction. Sure, Wicca was pretty widely accepted ten year ago but so much has changed. Information placed on the internet was usually sketchy and it was difficult to discern what information you could trust. Add to that the fact that I had to save up my $1.25 lunch money for books, and you can imagine my frustrations. School life made things very difficult. I even had a teacher in the 7th grade who confiscated a copy of “Teen Witch” by Silver Ravenwolf (one of my very first books) calling it “inappropriate reading material”. God forbid something teaching a youngster about personal responsibility and respect for nature be read in the classroom! Then the classmate taunting. Oh how cruel children can be. The death threats quoting scripture referring to Pagans deserving death poured in. It was more like a 90’s inquisition than a school. When I defended myself with words, I was put in detention from other kids claiming I had “threatened to curse them”. Yes, that really did happen once. But I persevered. I learned about metal exercises designed to deflect negative energy, to bind harm, and to heal my emotions. Over time, their words lost power and I regained my own.

As mother read more and became more comfortable with my new “thing”, I was able to start developing a daily practice and reach out to the Pagan community. For awhile I attended “Teen Wiccan Wisdom”, a Charlotte-based youth group for Pagan teens sponsored by Shamans of the Willow Moon Coven. Through them, I learned about disciplined study, ritual work, and using my religious beliefs to help me grow into a responsible, compassionate young adult.

Into high school the hardships varied and we’re less intense than middle school. I was able to handle things much better. I was starting to realize that the opinions of others didn’t matter to me and that my connection with myself and the divine was what needed to be made a priority. The “personal responsibility” aspect of the craft really came into play here. And through it all, I emerged with many different career ideas, ready to take on the world. The magick did help too. Memory augmentation charms for exams, spells of truth and discernment in dealing with tough relationships, things like that.

My understanding of magick now-as a daily art and science-is much different. I find now that everything is magickal and has very different sides. I no longer see the world as black and white and either “cruel or kind”. The experience of working with this energy has taught me that there are so many different layers and aspects to things. I know now that when seemingly “bad” things happen to me, it isn’t because something hates me or I did something wrong. I think of it in terms of the goddess Brighid. She forges the steel of being in her cosmic “flame”, bettering her skill and tools. When I am “thrown into the fire”, something is being transformed for the better in it. It’s that process of hardship that refines, that polishes away all the extra “stuff” so I can shine. That is probably one of the deepest and most valuable things that Witchcraft has brought me to understand.

The community has been kind to me. Through the years I’ve had the pleasure of learning from and being in circle with some prominent Pagan elders in our community like Starhawk, Dorothy Morrison, Christopher Penczak, Janet Farrar, Gavin Bone, and Jamie Wood. I’ve been on radio shows, had articles published, and am pleased to announce I’m working on a book (once I nail down a publishing agent). It’s been such a joyous experience and I can hardly believe how much I’ve learned and how much I’ve changed. As I go forward and past my 20’s, I’m looking forward to another 10 years of magick, mystery, and growth. Sure, I may burn some potions along the way and there may be times when I fall off the broomstick, but I know now how to get right back on it again.

I have so much to be thankful for. My life is so much richer and filled with so much more substance than I could have ever imagined. I feel and experience the divine in everything I do now. It’s in the subway on my morning commute and it’s in my dreams when I fall asleep. There’s a known Wiccan proverb that says “She [the Goddess] changes everything She Touches. Everything She touches changes”. And she has. May I always be changed, may I always be transformed, and may the world be a better place because of it. Here’s to 10 more years and beyond.

Blessed Be

A Glimpse of The Future By Michael H. Jackson

/ soulinteraction / Leave a comment

We all know that the earth is going to ascend in the future, that the entire population is going to undergo a tremendous spiritual transformation, but what is the near future going to be like, taking us from where we are now to full ascension? Based on my conversations with the Ascended Masters and on my own intuition here is a sample of what I believe we can expect in the near future.

For a time yet we will be going through a healing process. Our healing is basically in three areas. Relationships, abundance, physical and mental health. Those are the areas we’re most concerned with. As we experience that we are part of God we will send signals out to the universe, literal energy impulses that say “I AM One with God, I have all that God has, all that God is, available to me. I have constant unlimited wealth, abundance, money, good health, perfect relationships flowing to me all the time.” And the Universe will serve up to us on a magical golden platter all of these things beyond our fondest desires.

If you think this is unrealistic, remember that we create our reality at every step of the way. How can the energy of God be limited to the restriction of a hard, rough, unpleasant lengthy process? The answer is that it can’t unless we make it so. We learn that healing is quick and joyous, we take ourselves through our changes rapidly and joyfully. Then what?

Then you begin to enjoy all that God is within you. You fulfill your financial desires. Suddenly you finally have enough to meet your everyday needs and if something unexpected crops up, you have enough to cover that too. You now have more than enough money energy to give to yourself and all your family and friends. No one that you are close to has any further financial burdens or debts. Not only that, since you have discovered that you now send out only signals of wealth, prosperity and abundance, you will likely wish to teach all your friends to whom you have given so generously how to do the same thing.

Together each of you have the ability to fulfill all the dreams you have ever wanted. In addition to all the fun stuff like new house and car (which you won’t be using very long) you will be able to fund the healing center you have always wanted to set up. As your prosperity consciousness spreads, all over the country and the world healing centers spring up as others learn to create prosperity as you have done.

Maybe you fund that all natural organic bread bakery you always wanted in your town or neighborhood. You enable all those folks who want nothing more than to live a fulfilled life as a farmer to have all they need to grow the wheat and oats organically to sell to your bakery. Now we are getting back to what many have said is an excellent life – that of produce and services being provided on a local level by happy, prosperous friends, all working harmoniously together.

As prosperity consciousness spreads, you are living in a country and eventually a world where everyone is increasingly getting it that they ARE prosperous and you begin to breathe that prosperous energy in with every breath you take. You wake up each morning and breathe in the rich vibration of health and happiness. The air feels good, your cats and dogs are happy and healthy. You create homes for so-called stray animals where they can live healthy, safe, prosperous lives and those who love animals to the utmost and want their highest good are the ones who now can take care of and work with the animals full time.

Everyone as a result of their prosperity consciousness finds themselves landing right where they should be, performing the very activities that not only give them the utmost happiness but are the very activities that God put them here on Earth to perform which means that each soul is expressing their own unique talents and gifts straight from their God Self.

That God Self begins to glow from within. There are those who literally begin to shine with the God Light from within. Our health issues begin to be resolved. We look within and literally see the energy which has created lack of health on a physical level. We look within, see what is causing the problem and change it through application of our innate God Essence energy applied to transmute and totally replace the misqualified energy. Now our health is becoming perfect. Our bodies look however we want them to, for they are now a true out picturing of our inner Love for the God and Goddess that we are. We are no longer held back by physical, emotional or mental limitations.

Remember earlier when I said that the new car you buy with your physical abundance you might not use very long? Well, in this wonderful upsurging of God energy coming forth from increasing numbers of people, some bright soul is going to invent a totally pollution free car. Eventually, someone is going to be perceiving on the level of Universal energy and will remember how to harness Universal energy to power our autos and everything else.

Let’s explore this a bit. God is everywhere, so what we are doing with the ascension experience is simply returning to the reality that actually IS instead of the false realities we have been creating all this time on earth. We use the essence of God for every purpose, and we are doing it consciously and in harmony with God’s Divine Desire for our happiness. No surprise then that we can operate our motor vehicles with God power. We maybe at first have some sort of crystal or other physical object that will seem to draw the energy into the car. No oil, no gas, no transmission fluid.

This means that the balance of power will shift in the world. The oil rich nations will have to look to their connection to God for their sustenance rather than to the oil in the ground. All the people who work in the fossil fuels industry will have the joy to look for their true life purpose and find their passion in life. Perhaps they will go to some schools that have been established for that very purpose. Schools that help people understand that their goodness and wealth rests inside of them, in their Unity with God/Goddess within them. They will learn that they are special and have something special to offer to the universe and they will set about doing just that.

Universal energy will now power diesel trucks, airplanes, jets and all forms of boats. Our homes will each have a crystal within it enabling us to heat and cool and run our appliances off Universal love energy from God. This of course means that all the people who formerly worked in the energy creation industry will have a lot of work to do – removing all the unnecessary and unsightly poles, transmission towers, electric wires and so on. Then they can go to the aforementioned life purpose schools or maybe schools where they will learn to harness and become one with their own I AM Presence.

Large corporations will have a division devoted to assisting each and every employee in finding their life purpose and right livelihood. Sounds too good to be true, but it will happen. These corporations will also have as their highest priority to assist each employee and each customer or client in achieving prosperity, healing and happiness. These companies will set about eliminating all forms of pollution that they have previously been responsible for creating.

Our telephones will run off universal energy so there will be no need for microwave cell phone towers. We will simply pick up the phone, think of the person and their phone will ring. Everything in God becomes simple and miraculous at the same time.

Now our skies are clearing because there is no more fossil fuel being burned in any form to create pollution. There are lots of great movies to see because all the producers and directors are creating positive films that assist us with our ascension process. There are lots of gatherings and celebrations where everyone is filled with joy and plans are made and carried out to assist those who are still struggling in the world.

Our military will be used to create peace throughout the world. Perhaps they will be trained in the healing arts! Our marines, air force, navy and army all become a great healing force sent around the world to assist others in creating oneness with God and healing the ills they currently suffer. Military weaponry will be dismantled and where possible recycled using the metals, plastics and other components to build positive things.

Our animals will be loved and cared for, each having plenty to eat and comfortable places to live. We will be communicating with them easily and clearly and we will be able to discern those animals who are actually angels and devas incarnated for our healing and teaching and we will assist them in their purpose. We will understand that animals are all filled with God’s Light just as we are, and gradually we will not only stop killing them but they will stop killing each other. Their energies will become complete until every soul is one with God.

There will be those who go around the globe healing and cleansing the earth from the unpleasant energy that has been created for ages. There will be a great decrease in violent weather since storms are simply caused by angels and devas who are called upon to cleanse and heal the negative energies that humans have created. This will free the devas from their sleep and allow them to return to their full power. Everywhere across the world the land and waters will become blissful, each area returning to the fullness of God energy that it has always had in a potential form.

Angels and devas will become much more obvious. They will show themselves much more only because there will be more who are able to see them as they truly are. They and we will work together to cleanse this world of all its mental/emotional pollution which is the cause of all physical pollution. At this point many will be coming for healing and to understand how those of us who have become so happy and wealthy have achieved our Light. We will teach them, they will give up their stress to pursue the creation of Unity with God.

Long before all this happens the leadership of our world will be changed. The politicians we currently have will be supplanted by those who are actively becoming one with God, men and women who will not tolerate waste of the Earth’s resources, nor the back room deals and secret policies that our current leaders are so fond of. They will be examples for those who wonder what kinds of lives to lead and they will create policies of love for all the world in trade and loving assistance to other nations as well as creating solutions to the difficulties at home. Teams of great healers will be sent to places that still create trouble for themselves to lead the people there in creating their bliss with God and in giving the leaders there a different example to follow.

At this point many will be ascending into the fourth dimension. Our physical bodies are perfect, no more illness. Our desires are spontaneously and easily fulfilled. We are beginning to manifest deeper knowledge of the Light from which we come and of which we are made. Some of us are going on into the fifth and six dimensions. Here the body becomes Pure Light. We will be manifesting all the wonderful abilities: walking through solid objects, flying, teleportation, being able to merge with the essence of any form.

All Earth changes will occur simply as a function of Mother Earth shifting to reflect the greater spiritual essence that we now all participate in and are examples of. Rather than being traumatic the changes will be celebrated and many of us will be called upon to help with those changes by contributing our God Energy to the project of altering the Earth to Her new alignment.

The ancient knowledge and energy of Lemuria and other truly enlightened civilizations will re-manifest upon our planet. Ancient records will be revealed and Temples will be formed on the site where the Etheric Temples now exist. Eventually the physical substance of these Temples will become Pure Etheric substance. Yes, life is going to be quite a bit of fun and we didn’t even talk about traveling to other dimensions and parts of this galaxy and universe at will with the blink of a thought!

I am an energy healer, intuitive, spiritual teacher and channel for the Ascended  Masters, angels and Archangels. I can assist people in recognizing themselves as energy, the energy of Pure Awareness, the energy of the Divine. This living intelligent energy is the unlimited power to create your desires and live in harmony and the comfort of unity with your Divine Self. Its my job to help you access your power and this comfort of life.

Setting Our Intentions for the New Year

/ soulinteraction / Leave a comment

One year is quickly coming to an end and a new one quickly approaches. What do you want out of life in 2010?  How do you want to evolve, change, or grow? Or do you like where you are?

Most of us go through our yearly check off list: Lose weight, give up bad habits, etc….

Make this year about being of service to others.  This year ask yourself what you can do to bring joy and happiness to others.  It can be something simple like helping a friend out that needs someone to watch their kids, or it can be as elaborate as a volunteering at a homeless shelter.

This is also a great time to turn inwards and to connect with ourselves.  There are those of us that tend to overextend ourselves and our energy.  We give and never receive.  Take time to heal, to grow, and to be in your own energy every now and then.  I’ve met one of the most amazing gurus while here in SC- My 4 year old niece.  She handed me a crayola marker, and told me I had to draw with her.  I’ll admit, it felt silly at first… then an hour into it I had forgotten about the world around me, and connected with inner child.  We can learn a lot when we let go, and just be.

 

Namaste to you all!  I hope you had a wonderful holiday!
