L.O.V.E.

In the past two days I have had the most extraordinary experiences.  I have had unexpected phone chats, virtual visits and other serendipitous goings on. In this time of physically being isolated from one another, will you notice the little things that we miss with our everyday routine? Will you take the time to notice the subtle and not so subtle changes within yourself? Does this time of isolation give you anxiety or will you take this time to heal, contemplate, and create?

In one of those unexpected conversations, I was told that in this time of dread and fear my posts were uplifting and full of love. It was suggested that I should use this time to expand my influence. This validated another suggestion that I should lead by example and inspire others to live their lives as fully as possible even in a time of quarantine. So, I sat down and thought of ways to help others find joy in a not so joyful time on the planet. One of those ideas was the acronym for the word L.O.V.E.

L. Live

O. Outstanding

V. Victorious

E. Experience

We will unpack and explore the possibilities of each part of this and I will show you how each letter/word can raise the quality of your life exponentially.

I know that life as we knew it has changed and for most of us it will never be the same again. Resisting the changes that are coming will only serve to make your experience more painful. I am not suggesting that we all just cower to the powers that be. What I am suggesting is that we take some time to re-evaluate our own personal rules, values, and needs. No one is perfect. Everyone can make improvements, even if they are small adjustments.

Here is my promise to you.  I will post every Sunday for your reading enjoyment. I will bring you inspiring content with helpful real-life suggestions to get you through this time of impending change. If you have questions, please send them to my email at info.ravenfairleight@gmail.com and I will cover them in my blog/Facebook posts.

Thank you for taking the time to read my posts. Thank you for being kind to one another.  Thank you for living a life based on love.

Time Heals?

This is Osiris

We have heard you use the terms, “My, how time flies.” “Time flies when you are having fun.” “Time is on my side.” The last of which could not be further from the truth.  Time is not your friend.  Time is a parasite that sucks the quality out of your experiences if you spend too much time in the past.

What is your past? Nothing but a story now, wouldn’t you agree?  Are YOU your past?  Does it define or refine you? Do you see yourself as wounded?  Are you “waiting” for time to heal your wounds? Are you allowing your fears to stand in the way of your experiences?

Well, while you were waiting, stars were formed, babies were born, mothers, fathers, sisters, brothers, aunties, and uncles died, a child spoke their first word, a deaf child “felt” their first symphony, the seasons changed, and, someone out there fell in love with your Soul.

What were you waiting for again?

The Innate Language of the Soul ~ A Channelling From Arch Angel Gabriel

Freedom comes not from the process but through the feeling. For many the process starts with the intention and then moves towards the feeling. This is sufficient until the mind gets in the way. By the mind we say this with regards to having no connection with the heart, the soul.  When the mind invades the process, the heart and soul are displaced and the outcome is inauthentic, it becomes a form of disambiguation.

What is the process?  We speak of a recalibration of your Souls accumulated experience. What you know to be Ascension. What is a feeling? A feeling is the result of the process and you have found ways to give value and form to these “feelings”. Is a feeling and an emotion one in the same?  No. Feeling is a knowing, an emotion is energy in motion. When emotions are blocked or suppressed the result is a negative emotion. When the energy is allowed to move freely, the emotion is a positive emotion.  It may not “feel” positive.  It may even be painful, but through the process of experiencing the emotion the energy is used for the purpose of healing and moves the soul towards its final destination.

 You experience feelings when you are being guided to take action or inaction. You experience feelings when your Soul is speaking to you through your heart. You call this intuition we would say that it is your innate language, the language of your Soul.

Self-Victimization and Vibration

Having not written in a while I have deeply contemplated what to cover in this blog. There have been so many who have been struggling with self-worth and victim energy for so long that it has become a comfortable pattern for them to slip into whenever life just seems a little bit too hard. The more energy we give to that behaviour, the easier it is to access.

How does it serve someone to become the victim?  How does it serve someone to continue to deny the magnificence within them?  What need or needs do these patterns fulfill? Is life easier when everything happens “to” you, when everything is out of your control? How does this further the soul evolution of someone who engages in these behaviours?

Simple answer to those questions is, that it doesn’t serve them in their highest good, but it does “relieve” them of their personal responsibility for the condition of their lives and the frequency of their vibration. . . for a while anyway. When someone gives up their power and falls into the ego’s trap of self-degradation and self-victimization the condition of their life can become unbearable and this is when anxiety and depression can set in.  BUT, there was a choice.  They chose to continue this pattern.  Why??? Because these patterns  meet one or more of their needs.  For some people being the “victim” gives them significance and of course this is in a negative or shadow position. For others, it brings certainty to their lives through the position that they will find comfort from others, although, only for a while.  This also lends itself to love and connection BUT in a VERY dysfunctional presentation.

Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional.  It is a choice.  We can choose to honour ourselves and the magnificence within us or we can choose to continue the patterns that have held us captive and dis-empowered.  It IS up to you.

Your Energy, Your Responsibility

Personal Energy is a sacred thing and should be treated as such.  It is not something to be treated with disrespect and it certainly is NOT to be projected at others.

We are all personally responsible for the condition of our life force energy and what we do with it. In caring for our own energy we must nurture and cleanse our energy.  The care and feeding of our energy is vital to the health and wellbeing of our human bodies.  When we overdo it, or if there is an extended period of exponential growth; without the proper care we can become depleted and our physical wellbeing can become compromised. When we become depleted, our vibration is lowered and we are subject to lower vibrating or dense energies which only serves to create stress, anxiety, and depression can result.

“The Law of Cause and Effect: Every action or thought has an effect or consequence. The nature of that effect depends upon the nature of the cause. If the cause is "good", the effect will be "good". If the cause comes from negative thoughts or evil, the results will be equally negative or evil. We reap what we sow. If a person sows evil, they will eventually reap what they have sown. Freedom from the Law of Karma requires us to be unattached to the results of our actions, provided we perform them with good intentions, following Divine Law.

I reference the Law of Cause and Effect in regards to the projection of one’s personal energy onto or “at” another human being.  This “practice” is NOT exempt from this Universal Law and it links to the Law of Attraction’s premise; like attracts like.  If your intentions are authentic and come from a place of Love and you are sending Healing and Love that has been requested by the one you are sending it to, then that is what you will receive. If you are intending on sending or projecting energy for the purpose of impeding another’s growth or for the purpose of creating pain or illness at another human being, you WILL attract the same.

We are all energy, we are all spiritual beings having a human experience, all we NEED is Love.

To Charge or Not to Charge . . .

To Charge or Not to Charge . . .

There has been a shift in the consciousness around the concept of charging for giving spiritual guidance, providing readings, and performing energetic healings of any form. Is this because we are coming closer to a time when the current monetary system will become obsolete? Is this a challenge coming from within ourselves about the value we hold, or don’t hold, in regards to spiritual teachings and what each of us has to offer as a healer? Or is this a pattern of self-denial and martyrdom that has been carried into some of our cellular level awareness?

Our current monetary system is there, no doubt.  We have been funnelled into the belief system that we pay for food, utilities, shelter, medical services, beauty services, as well as plumbing, electrical, transportation, entertainment, etc. There are those who would argue that you can grow your own food, go into the bush and build your own shelter, create your own entertainment. That is all very possible, but how would that enable ones who are searching for empowerment, energetic healing, or spiritual guidance to access those who have that knowledge and experience to share?

Challenges in regards to how we value ourselves and what we have to offer the world are reflected to us in various ways. If there is a belief within yourself and you are giving that belief energy, the Universe will provide you the mirror image of that belief so that you can discern for yourself if it is serving your highest good or not. If there is a question within you about the value of what you have to offer then the value you give to your service will reflect that. Your beliefs about what others should be charging for their services is a judgement based on how your value yourself and what you have to offer.

There have been those who have spoken out about spiritual gifts being just that, a gift; and that these gifts should be given freely, for free. That is a beautiful sentiment, but somewhat unrealistic in this current monetary construct we exist in. It is a blessing to live and work in your purpose. If that purpose provides healing for those who are seeking it, why would it be wrong to charge for it, as long as you are providing this service authentically and with integrity? Say someone is extremely gifted in art and they give all of their artwork away without charging for it. How are they to survive in this world? How are they to pay for more art supplies to create more art to share with the world? Their gift is their ability to express emotion and messages through their innate artistic ability. How does that differ from someone who has developed their gift of “sight” or “hearing” or the ability to be a channelle for Universal energy to assist in healing?  From the beginning of time healers have been compensated in some way for their services because there always has to be some kind of energetic exchange for there to be balance in the equation. Money is energy. The exchange of that energy serves to solidify the value of the healing for the one who has received it. So many have had the experience, whether they call it past-life or inter-dimensional, of being poor, or taking vows of poverty and chastity, or being persecuted for being prosperous and abundant. When these energies are prevalent in their energetic field their perception of the energy of money, can be skewed and their ability to value what they have to offer can be restricted.  When these energies are removed from their energetic field, they can operate with authenticity and integrity in offering their services while charging an appropriate and customary fee.

If healers are to continue to do their work, they need to be accessible to the general population to be facilitators of change. The exchange of the energy of money does not lessen the purity of intent if it truly exists in the first place. The energetic exchange of money merely serves as a way to make them more available to serve more people.

A Message From Lemuria for the Lightworkers & Starseeds

The Earth is experiencing shift in consciousness through is vibrational reconditioning. The Starseeds, Dolphins, Whales, and the energies of Lemuria are now converging on the Earth plane to bring light into the most challenging areas.  As you are entering the 4^th and 5^th dimensions you are now activating all of the energy centers within your physical bodies that will allow you to continue to grow in your emotional, spiritual, and physical evolution. It is to be known that we are not “alien” to you.  We have been with you from the beginning of your “time”.  Through all of the trials and tribulations that you have created for yourselves there on Earth we have been waiting for the moment when your vibrational offering was in alignment with ours.  The time is NOW.  You can see us much more clearly, more frequently. You can sense our presence and we, as light beings, are reflecting to you your innate abilities. We are no different from you.  We are YOU. We are your brothers and sisters who have waited to join you in your journey.

We have travelled from what you describe as millions of Light years to reach you.  Our perception of “time” is not the same as yours for our dimensional positions are different, for now. There are more and more of you that are able to access the dimensions that we have existed in, and still do exist in.  The difference now, is that the vibration of your planet has reached a level that has now given us the ability to access your dimensional position without severe consequences to our wellbeing.

The reason for this message is to encourage and support you in continuing to focus on the positive energies that are supporting you right now.  In your terms, “be present” with all that you are doing.  This moment in your time is like no other.  It cannot be, for it has never been here before.

There are many who describe this as the end times.  On many levels they are correct. This is the end of the era of the control of the ego.  This is the end of the time when judgement, expectation, and attachment are your primary operating apparatus.  In these endings, you are seeing new and exciting beginnings. It is the beginning of the New Age, The Age of Aquarius. It is the beginning of a time on your planet where Love and compassion will reign over greed and oppression.  There are warriors in your midst RIGHT NOW.  This is your moment, SHINE.

I Heard a Tree Cry

In the presence of Mother Nature, a Tree cried out to me today. Her bark had been stripped, her trunk slashed and left bleeding. I could feel her pain in my chest , hear her cries in my ears, and see her tears with my eyes. She told me how they came to her place of standing and desecrated her home. “They have polluted the earth that is my home. They have stripped my bark and slashed my trunk.” Her words were loud and clear, full of pain.

In a soft tone, she reminded me that my judgement of those who had done this to her was mine to bear as well. For I was a part of them, they are a part of me, and we all were a part of her. So in essence, the violence that had been perpetrated against her had been against us all.  No one would escape.  The Tree told me that if this abuse continued that there would be consequences. She told me that if the earth was continuously polluted she would bear no fruit, that if they continued to tear into her trunk she would yield no medicine, and if she were fallen for no reason she would no longer provide shade.

Then the Tree sang to me.  Her song was strong and the message clear.  “This Earth does not belong to us, we belong to it.” Listen to the tree for she is wise and has much to teach us.

New Patterns, New Year

Is it the rejection of the Soul to be humble or is it a process of the ego?  Is this about humility at all? The definition of humility is –

                                           

The state or quality of being humble; freedom from pride and arrogance; lowliness of mind; a modest estimate of one's own worth; a sense of one's own unworthiness through imperfection and sinfulness; self-abasement; humbleness. An act of submission or courtesy.

 In the past few days I have felt a huge mix of emotions and have had a deluge of experiences related to judgement of self and others, which is not pretty or enlightened, and a feeling of resistance to change and letting it all go. This usually occurs for me when I am gaining access to a new level of consciousness.  Now, seeing as it’s the end of 2011 and I intentionally set out to get clear for next year, Universe is now providing all that I need to create this new state of energetic cleanliness. GREAT! If that sounded or felt sarcastic it was, on one level anyway. This challenge has brought up old, old, and very deep seeded emotion. Stuff that I thought might have melted away, miraculously!  . . . Big overzealous laugh there!!! . . . I didn’t really think that it would all just go away.  I just swept in deep into the bowels of my emotional waste and left it there to fester. But it is now time to process this new level of poo and rid myself and my auric field of the toxins that the decaying patterns have created.

So instead of humility being the answer as was in the old pattern, how about I try LOVE.  Love for myself, in that I AM a spiritual being, processing this Earth bound experience as a human being. I am not perfect. Perfection would mean that my learning is over and so I would be leaving this place momentarily, and I have a knowing that this is not the case. Loving myself at the moment would mean to let go of the drama that comes with others judging me and my choices, as well as the drama and detriment that judgement of others causes myself and those involved. Loving myself and others means knowing that all is perfect and divine at this precise moment in time and that all will continue to be so.

As far as those “old, old decaying patterns of self - judgement “ go, I will set the intention to create new patterns of Love and acceptance for myself and others; Speaking only with Love and compassion about myself and those in my experience. This will not only assuage the feelings of anxiety and upheaval, it will raise my personal vibration to the next level.

Thank you to all who have provided the reflections that have made this growth possible.

2012 is going to be AMAZING!

It's your move . . .

Do you remember the old saying, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t saying anything at all.”? It is a concept that could change our known existence. Speaking kindly, compassionately, and loving everyone unconditionally would make this world a much better place. This would mean leaving judgement out of your consciousness. It would also mean, empowering yourself and others to “re-connect” with our innate selves. There would be no place for war, or battle; no need to take up arms or have defence budgets. We could live in harmony with our brothers and sisters here on Earth, in Peace.

This may sound airy fairy to you but just think for a moment. How much energy does it take for you to NOT say something derogatory about another human being?  What kind of state does speaking with compassion and Love put you in? Did you know that you expend less energy putting on a smile than you do wearing a frown?

When we are in a positive mindset, we nurture are parasympathetic and sympathetic nervous systems.  When we are in a negative or denser energy mindset we zap ourselves of precious elements and minerals and create an acidic condition in our physical bodies that actually creates a host site for viruses and diseases like cancer and diabetes.

By spewing anger and resentment about others we are sabotaging our own wellbeing and giving power to situations that are not within our control.  Each and every one of us on this planet is on our own personal journey or soul evolution. There are no mistakes, only lessons learned. The rate at which we learn these lessons is as unique as a finger print. It is not ours to judge, it IS ours to Love.

This is just my humble opinion, no judgement here. J

Our Physical Bodies and Vibration

For a while now, I have been travelling this road toward spiritual awareness, enlightenment.  There are so many ways to heal, so many paths to take to gain knowledge and understanding.  It can all be a bit overwhelming at times.

I do know one thing for sure. Well many things, but I am certain that the physical component of our healing is essential to our raising our vibration and ascension.  We must cleanse and purify our bodies just as Mother Earth cleanses her body, the planet. By creating a healthier version of ourselves, physically, we offer our intention of divine Love for our human form and we align our bodies with our Soul.  At Soul level we are never unwell.  We may have lessons to learn which allow the evolution of our energy, but our innate energy is pure and in alignment with Source.

Vibration is a wonderful way to cleanse and protect your physical, emotional, and etheric bodies.  Using Sound Healing, Crystals, Toning, and other vibrational healing tools, we are able to shift energies that are no longer serving our highest good and create a healthy and balanced energy for ourselves.

Eating “cleaner” foods and drinking fluids that are chemical/preservative free is essential to raising our personal vibration and enhancing our energy. Meat is a heavy food that takes a lot of energy to digest and can be full of negative energy from the slaughter experience of the animal. We can get all of the protein we need from things like bananas, bean sprouts, legumes, nuts, and other fruits and veggies Not everyone wishes to be or can be a vegetarian. So if your choice is to eat meat, then look towards the lean white meats that are available. Balancing the acid/alkaline levels in your body is a very effective way of creating a healthier and “lighter” physical body. You can start by simply adding lemon to your daily intake of water.  This begins the process of bringing your body into a balanced alkaline state and assists your immune system with handling things like viruses and bacteria.

Remember, this is a journey, a lifelong trek through the experience of this incarnation.  Enjoy it and live it to its fullest.

Calling All Lightworkers ~ "We ARE a force that can shake the whole world"

No, I am not a politician looking for votes; I am an awakened being that knows that we are at the precipice of a very exciting time here on Earth.

As the Mayan calendar is coming to a close we are experiencing shifts in consciousness almost weekly. Thus, the contrast between Love and fear is growing more defined.  Fear is constructed from beliefs that are imposed on the conscious mind.  The ego/self takes this information and creates its ammunition against the Soul. Beliefs are merely thoughts that we keep thinking.  So, through practices such as meditation, walking in nature, and focusing on the present, we can take back control from the ego, come into a place of Love, and create new beliefs and patterns. This will take us from living in a fear based consciousness into living in a Heart-centred existence. ARE YOU READY?  

As Lightworkers, it is our job to assist those who want to create positive change in their lives.  We are here to shine the Light on the pathway of forward movement and illuminate the way for those who will succeed our time here on Earth. The challenges that we have faced in stepping into our roles have been plentiful. With each new challenge comes exponential growth and with this growth comes new abilities and tools that we have to draw upon in our daily lives to lead by example with.The lower vibrating energies of the past no longer have the proverbial “upper hand” and there are more Light beings on the planet now than ever before. We are quickly becoming the majority. We are no longer standing in the shadows working “underground”. The Light is shining brighter than it has for thousands of years and is stronger than any element of fear. Love is the highest vibrating energy available and we are Loving the planet through the ascension process.These are not mere words but a mantra that we keep within our hearts; To Love more, to guide with grace, to teach acceptance, and to leave attachment and expectation behind. Unconditional Love is possible if we are present with patience and grace. We ARE the ones we have been waiting for.  We ARE the change that is being seen in the world. There is a quote from a song from one of my favourite bands, “A Day to Remember”, “WE ARE A FORCE THAT CAN SHAKE THE WHOLE WORLD!” I am not sure if they were speaking about Lightworkers, but I say . . . “LET’S SHAKE THIS PLACE UP!”

Life Path # 7

 Life Path # 7

You are the searcher and the seeker of the truth. You have a clear and compelling sense of yourself as a spiritual being . As a result, your life path is devoted to investigations into the unknown, and finding the answers to the mysteries of life.

You are well-equipped to handle your task. You possess a fine mind; you are an analytical thinker, capable of great concentration and theoretical insight. You enjoy research, and putting the pieces of an intellectual puzzle together. Once you have enough pieces in place, you are capable of highly creative insight and practical solutions to problems. You enjoy your solitude and prefer to work alone. You need time to contemplate your ideas without the intrusion of other people's thoughts. You are a lone wolf, a person who lives by his own ideas and methods. As a result, close associations are difficult for you to form and keep, especially marriage. You need your space and privacy, which, when violated, can cause you great frustration and irritation. When your life is balanced, however, you are both charming and attractive. You can be the life of a party, and enjoy performing before an audience. You enjoy displaying your wit and knowledge, which makes you attractive to others, especially the opposite sex. But you have distinct limits. While you are generous in social situations, sharing your attention and energy freely, you are keenly aware of the need to "come off stage" and return to the solitude of your lair. You associate peace with the unobtrusive privacy of your world. Therefore, intimacy is difficult for you, because you guard your inner world like a mother lion does her cubs.

All this privacy and aloneness can cause isolation and loneliness, however. You can be aware of an emptiness in your life, a part of you that yearns for company and close companionship that may be unsatisfied. If isolation is brought to the extreme, you can become cynical and suspicious. You can develop hidden, selfish motives, which people may sense and may cause them discomfort around you. You must guard against becoming too withdrawn and independent, thus shutting out the love of others and keeping you from experiencing the true joy of friendship and close companionship. You must especially watch out for selfishness and egocentricity, thinking of yourself as the centre of the universe, the only person who really matters. Social contact gives you perspective on yourself and on life, while too much isolation can make you too narrow and even shut off from the rest of the world.

Secretly, you may feel jealous of the easy relationships formed by others; you may perceive others as less inhibited than you, or freer to express themselves. You may harshly criticize yourself for not being more gregarious, powerful, or capable of greater leadership. Your challenge in life is to maintain your independence without feeling isolated or ineffectual. You must hold fast to your unique view on the world, while at the same time being open to others and the knowledge they have to offer.

With your abilities to learn, analyse, seek out answers to life's important questions, you have the potential for enormous growth and success in life. By the time you reach middle age, you will radiate refinement and wisdom. Pythagoras loved the seven for its great spiritual potential.

A World Without Judgement

A World Without Judgement

Can you imagine a world without judgement? There wouldn’t be any wars, no need for jails, hate would be eliminated and Love would be the operating system we based our lives on instead of fear. Is it possible? YES!

Ok, so then if hate would be eliminated then how would there be a balance between light and dark, good an evil? Would it be necessary to “find that balance or would it just exist? Would our shadow side be something we needed to rectify or would it just be an accepted part of who we are? Would we still have the ability to recognize our ego and its purpose of control and the distortion of the connection between our innate being and our human form? Would we need to recognize that at all?

Judgement is an insidious concept on so many levels. It causes stress, physical and emotional pain as well as dividing us from each other. It blinds us to the fact that we are spiritual beings in human form who are all in perfect and divine order. Where and when did we start to judge ourselves? How did we get from being diving beings of Light to physical beings who can no longer see the magnificence within ourselves and others?

Judgement stepped in when we forgot how to be compassionate. Compassion is the polar opposite to judgement as fear is the polar opposite to Love. When we truly live from a place of Love and compassion we cannot judge anyone or anything. Love is unconditional. Love sees past the fear and allows us to treat each other with kindness and acceptance. Experiencing life from this perspective, there are no mistakes only lessons learned. There would be no betrayal because there would be no need for conditional acceptance. Parents would see their children as divine beings of creation instead of possessions that they had control over. Value systems would be appreciated and accepted so the need for war and violence would be non- entities. Although, some may contend that value systems are based on personal judgements, and I can see the validity in that.

To be able to create a world without judgment we would need to have a huge restructuring of life as we know it today, but it is possible. If we each took a look at what and who we are judging right in this very moment and re-evaluated the situation from a perspective of acceptance, compassion, and Love, the world would look quite different I believe.

This may be a rant or a heartfelt expression of compassion and empathy for those who are bound to the constructs of fear and judgement, or it may be a judgement about judgement, who’s to say any way?

Crystal of the Day

Exponential Growth

Why do some people experience exponential growth as a painful experience?

The answer is resistance. Resistance is the greatest tool of the ego or as some call it the “self”. Through this, the ego reinforces that growth is unnecessary; that we are “just fine” right where we are. The ego or “self” is the master at thinking small. It would completely stifle our soul growth if we give it the power to do that. It uses the challenges that we face, due to the growth stage, as examples of the suffering we might face if we step out of the box. All of this misinformation that is sent into our energetic field causes a lowering of our personal vibration; which we then perceive as yet another failure. When in fact, it is not a mistake or failure it is merely another step in our evolutionary process of ascension.

When we take a step back and look that the situation at hand, we see that our soul already knows the final outcome and all is in perfect and divine order. We made choices, at soul level, before we were birthed on to this planet. These choices are recorded and held for us to access when we are at the vibrational frequency that is aligned with each new experience. Growth can be painful, but it need not be the cause of suffering. We choose to grow and expand. We can also choose to suffer. It is always, our choice.

In these moments of great change and exponential growth our best defence against the trials of the ego is meditation. In that quite space we can hear our Soul above the noise of the ego’s rambling and discern for ourselves what the next move is to be. Finding even just 20 minutes of time, to be still and quite, to allow the mind to discharge and disconnect from the everyday noise will provide greater focus and balance of thought and action. Realizing that the changes that are occurring around us are a direct reflection of our personal vibration is a magnificent window into the why and how of our current situation. This sacred space that we hold with our higher self is a gift to our human form.

Are you allowing yourself the space to grow . . . or are your falling into the traps of the ego? These traps look and sound like this.

1. The VICTIM - “I can’t believe they could do that to me!”

2. The QUITTER – “That’s ok, I wasn’t ready for that anyway.”

3. The UNWORTHY ONE – “I could never be all that.”

These are just some of the tricks that the ego uses to keep us believing that we are separate from our true and magnificent selves. Don’t be fooled. You are more powerful and more magnificent than you have ever imagined. You are a child of the Universe AND you are YOUnified with all that it is.

Shine On Brilliant Stars

What time is it?

Is there really ever a “right” time, a “wrong” time? If time doesn’t truly exist then why do we put such a value on it?

In the presence of time, we see the sun rise and set, our work day start and end, and we race against time to meet “deadlines”. This lends to judging ourselves harshly, creating negative space, and solidifies the illusion that we are here on this planet to work hard for less than the abundance that we truly deserve. We have chained ourselves to the watchtower and have taken ourselves out of the natural rhythm of the planet we live on.

In the absence of time, we still see the sun rise and set but without the constraints and pressures of this mechanism that we as humans have created. Without mechanical time, we live according to the passage of the seasons and our bodies ebb and flow with the energies that come and go through them. There is a natural and comforting feeling that we get when we align with Mother Earth’s heartbeat. The planets all still revolve and the birds and other animals all survive without a watch, so can we, we did so once upon a time.

Now, I know that there are some of you out there saying, “Well this is all nice and sounds warm and fuzzy, but VERY unproductive.” “How can I create an abundant and profitable life without time?” First of all, abundance comes in many forms, and you would be amazed at how much easier your day would flow if you stopped “racing against” time. Make it work for you. We are headed back to a complimentary existence. Mother Earth is teaching us some very harsh lessons right now. If we listen with our hearts and we begin to get back into the rhythm that she guides us with we will be able to not only heal ourselves but begin to help her heal as well.

Below are some practices to help you to get back into that natural flow.

1. Before you jump out of bed to the screeching of the alarm clock, give thanks for all of the incredible blessings in your life right now. Even if things aren’t exactly as you would have them at the moment, by giving thanks for what you do have Universe sees that you are open and accepting of more.

2. Stop throughout the day to take notice of the beauty around you. This will assist you in appreciating the essence of Mother Earth’s grandeur and this raises your personal vibration immensely.

3. Before you lay your head to rest at night, recognize the achievements you had during the day and how you were blessed by Gaia.

This experience here on Earth is to be cherished and savoured not rushed through and looked upon as a chore. We are only here for a very short while, enjoy the journey.

Homelessness and Youth ~ Enablement VS. EMPOWERMENT

This is the speech I am about to present to the top 300+ CEO's of Sydney, AU. This problem is a global problem, but it is not a challenge that cannot be fixed.

The end of 2009 beginning of 2010 seems like a lifetime away for me. So much has happened since then. It’s been a huge year all around. We have seen devastating earthquakes and tsunami’s, volcanic eruptions, up’s and down’s in the stock market, and all the while the numbers of homeless people, right here in Sydney, are continuing to grow. You are all about to get a taste of what it is like to sleep outside for the night, but to be honest, and I am sure you are all aware, that your experience tonight does not compare to what it is like to be out there night after night, day after day.

Over the last year, I have had some extraordinary experiences, two of which I would like to share with you tonight.

First, is the 8 weeks that I spent with youths in Hurstville, NSW. I was shown what it was like to be anywhere from 14 to 21 years of age, forced out of your home and out on to the streets by parents who were either too busy, or too emotionally unstable to care for their children. These kids let me into their world so I could better understand their needs. What I found was heart wrenching. I learned quickly that most of these kids had been in the “system” for quite a while, and yes, some of them had learned how to manipulate it very well. I also learned of how severe the need continues to be, for emergency shelters, mental health services, and education, for not only the kids, but for the communities that they are being abandoned in.

Ok, so you say we can’t fix it all, it will take time. I get that, but these kids don’t have time. They are out there being abused and neglected. They are facing drugs and alcohol as a way of escaping the life that they feel they have no control over.

It’s not about a free ticket. Being on centrelink as an adolescent just sets them up for a life of being enabled. We need to find ways to empower these kids. Getting them off the streets and into safe housing with programs that will teach them how to find the magnificence within themselves is a great start to breaking the cycle of homelessness and substance abuse that has been going on for generations.

The second experience that I would like to share with you is about the time I spent with a young man named Donnie.

Donnie was 18 years old and homeless, spending his nights and days on George St. I was working on Goulburn st, and everyday I would see this young man huddled in the corner trying to keep warm. After being here last year with you all, I could not just walk by him. I stopped and asked him if he had eaten and he said not for a couple of days. So I bought him breakfast and we sat down and he told me about himself. Donnie had come up from Melbourne for work but once he arrived here in Sydney, the work dried up and he had no way to get back home. One night I saw him and he was so sick he could barely stand up. So I got him into an internet café for the night because there wasn’t any room in the men’s shelter. He had a fever and was pretty dehydrated, so I bought him some juice and panadol and a sandwhich that he could eat when he felt up to it. Donnie and I repeatedly tried to get him into the men’s shelter but it was consistently full. There just wasn’t enough room. There just aren’t enough facilities.

There are so many more people that I have met over the past year, mum’s and children, husbands and wives, single men and women, and yes even children out there on their own.

What you are doing here tonight is incredibly important; and believe me I know the value of what St. Vincent De Paul and places like Amelie House is. Without their assistance women like myself, might still be out there on the streets, and moving from couch to couch alienating friends and family. But because of the work that is being done here tonight, we can continue to make a difference.

So what is my goal for this year, you ask . . .

I have created a workshop for teens that speaks in their language that encompasses their music and their culture so that they can easily assimilate the message. And my message is, that they are all incredible and magnificent human beings. Each with their own strengths and weaknesses but they all have the right and the ability to be anything and everything they can dream of.

I am working on making this a multi-media event that I can take to the schools, to the communities, and to anyone who will listen, because our kids are our future and if we don’t lead by example, they will have nothing to follow. This is my dream, and I believe that dreams do come true.

So, tonight I thank you from the bottom of my heart, for the assistance that not only I received almost 2 years ago now, but for your participation and generosity tonight.

I look forward to seeing you all again next year to celebrate our victories and once again find better ways of serving those who need our help.
