Ashley Christudason holds a Masters of Applied Design & Art from Curtin Univer-sity in Perth, Western Australia. For the last 5 years, he has been refining various layering techniques associated with digi-tal collage art – turning existing art and photography into reconfigured concep-tualizations that he sees both in dreams and visions.

Ashley’s mediums for creation include Adobe Photoshop, Adobe Illustrator, his Canon 600D Camera and a host of art-related apps. He begins with collat-

ing images from various sources on the web, which are then kept in folders to be picked and selected during the digi-tal collage process. These images can range from 18th century formalist paint-ings to abstract digital designs shared on the public domain.

Dharma of light


An image is then chosen as the ‘founda-tion’ or base-layer of the collage, ready to begin the unification of collated imag-ery. By combining his own photography in the collage, he wishes to challenge vi-sual perceptions about the ‘realness’ of the image after aggressive digital manip-ulation. Each finished piece (often con-taining 50 or more layers) then becomes a potential layer for newer works, thus allowing for a recycling or re-incarnation of the old with the new. Since this pro-cess has been going on for 5 years, his most recent pieces contain reconfigura-tions & transmutations of more than 900 layers of imagery, interwoven & remixed into a single image, which then becomes a new layer altogether, et al. Because of

the integration of so many layers, visual data used lose their original form/code and gain new forms/become recoded during the process of creation.

His first digital collage piece was ‘born’ on 11/11/08 in Miami, Florida whilst he was on an exchange program. When try-ing to come up with a title for the piece, the name ‘Jungle Eye’ instantly came to him. He later concluded that this title was a synonym for one’s 3rd eye. The 3rd eye (according to him) is the viewer & key to inter-dimensional vision, the light penetrator of the richest darkness & the knower of oneness in all things.

The Big Bang


A never-ending fascination with the meaning of our existence & everything our eyes cannot see although open, are two of the many building blocks that make up his being. He seeks to convey the necessity of keeping a free-imagina-tion for the ultimate experience of self-in-finity. This is the process of knowing that you are a part of everything – the abil-ity to see yourself in ALL things. This is the principle-philosophy that guides him through his work – that ALL things are connected, that we are all indeed ONE.

‘The Cydonian Files (Pt.1): The Arrival’


The Cardinal Grand Cross

and the First Wave

By Katie Gallanti

Art by Maryam Morrisonhttps://www.facebook.com/maryammarts


For a few years now I have been talk-ing and writing about the Pluto-Uranus square. The two planetary giants have been and still are generating a potent crucible for change, through an interest-ing dynamic pull between authority gone wild and rebellion on fire, as they face off in the cardinal signs Capricorn and Aries.

Pluto and Uranus have been coming to-gether repeatedly during the past few years in a creative clash. Pluto, lord of the underworld, ruler of power and dis-tortion healer, deeply transformative and foreboding energy, has been lock-ing horns with the mold breaking and rebellious Uranus, a planet that creates change through sudden bursts of ener-gy, breaking things apart, breaking away from the old and outmoded, and which acts like a lightning bolt, sudden and shocking.

Pluto the Grand Intensifier

Both these planets are about transfor-mation, with their own unique style in im-ploding systems and revamping the sta-tus quo. Pluto intensifies energies, until the shadow aspects of being become so blatant, that they can no longer be denied. Under Pluto’s influence, issues intensify and magnify until they have to be dealt with, healed and resolved. It is particularly interested in bringing to light our relationship with will and power and all the uncomfortable things that we tuck away and hide. Pluto is the grand uncov-erer and healer of the shadow aspects of self and being.

Plutonian energy brings the dirt of our

psyches, individual and collective to the surface, like a puss-filled boil. It looks ugly at first, but eventually the boil pops, the inner poison is released and all be-comes clearer than it was before. With the poison ejected from the system, all can begin anew, with the added bonus of the integrated knowledge of the experi-ence. In this sense Pluto is about Death and Rebirth. Plutonian transformations are ultimately aboutpurification through a mechanism of intensification and expul-sion of dark matter, both at the psychic and spiritual levels of being. In the best of cases, it is also about realigning the first ray of power with its true original cre-ative and divine purpose: power not as abuse and manipulation, but as potency of directed will at the service of life affirm-ing creation.

Uranus the Grand Reality Breaker

Uranus instead brings about transforma-tion through breaking patterns, break-ing energies, breaking stagnancies and injecting its own brand of new into the picture. Uranus often operates in very speedy and abrupt ways, in one swift and sometimes merciless instantaneous motion. It revitalizes systems by breaking them up and shocking them into new re-alities. It forces us to quickly shed what-ever is old that keep us stuck. Uranian transformations are all about evolution, revolution and moving forward, fast. And about sudden and sometimes jolting jag-ged angles that birth the new.As Leon-ard Cohen says, we need the cracks, so the light can come in. Uranus is the cos-mic crack maker through which creation bursts break through into being.


The combo of Plutonian and Uranian en-ergy and their current clashing dance is life changing both at the personal and collective levels. For the past two to three years and for two more years to come we have and will continue to be cracked open, purged and reborn. Sometimes the process is fun, sometimes not, but it is definitely profound. A once in a life time rollercoaster ride, which we may even learn to enjoy, as more of our original light comes online with each shedding. We are becoming more and more un-hindered and baggage free, as we peel away and complete layers and layers of karmic story.

Our multidimensional being, our records and DNA are also purging and rebooting. All the broken codes are coming back online, our true selves ready to descend and open, in their full energetic glory. The damage of the past is repaired, all per-petrators forgiven, including ourselves. We are becoming pure vessels of Soul with each turn of the cosmic clock. We are getting polished at every level, as the cosmos carves the inner jewels from our base matter. And the more we are carved and polished, the more we shine.

The Cardinal Grand Cross: the Grand New Reality Maker

As of this year we have other players joining this planetary clash, with Mars in Libra and Jupiter in Cancer, and on and off Venus in Capricorn, all also in the middle cardinal signs. This is creating a grand cross in the sky, with two to five planets coming in and out of the grand cross configuration for the first part of this

year. This adds another layer to the Pluto Uranus experience that has to do with how we do love, relationships, values, conflict with loved ones. It is also about how we rebalance and close out our Soul to Soul karma. Many relationships will ei-ther die or be reborn at a new level dur-ing this time. Expect the full gamut from conflicts and break ups, to engagements and marriages to take place during these next few months. Unions and re-unions will be occurring now especially between so called “divine mates”. Soul-buddies with big soul contracts, who have been hanging with each other lifetime after lifetime, have an opportunity to come to-gether now, if all the karmic homework has been completed on all sides.

Big rewards to clearing core karma at this time, whether in a relationship or not, as many lifetimes are now wrapping up for several groups of souls. We are stepping through the first doorways that are opening now, into new levels of be-ing that have not been available in this Earth realm for many eons of time, if not ever. Some Souls get to make this leap together, as a group, and then anchor energy from the other side of the door-way for others to follow. Or it least this is the vision I have been shown.

The first intense peak of these energies and doorway openings has already oc-curred throughout January and will peak again, with even more intensity around April 20th-25th.Then Mars and Jupiter will gradually move forward in the car-dinal degrees and separate from Pluto Uranus as the months roll ahead, to-wards the middle of the year.


However the Pluto Uranus square will reconvene again in December 2014. Alongside the cardinal crosses and squares, Neptune continues its journey into Pisces and Saturn its journey into Scorpio. Neptune is strong in its own sign, Pisces, giving healing and spiritual oversight over the whole process, but also helping us to release a lot of illu-sions and well as emotional grief. Maybe because Chiron, the wounded healer, is also in Pisces at this time, grief release seems to have been an ongoing theme for the past year or two, alongside all the intense challenges. Our inner waters are cleansing too: all the inner child pain, the pain of incarnation and separation, the pain of all hurts and traumas, all is emptying from the inner cups, so that they may be refilled with whatever we choose to create next, in our new cycle of being.

Saturn in Scorpio on Neptune in Scor-pio -A generation faces self and takes spiritual responsibility

Saturn is in Scorpio during this year and is an interesting energy for us to deal with too and especially for those of my generation who have Neptune in Scor-pio natally. Many of my mid sixties-born contemporaries are currently experienc-ing a Saturn on Neptune transit, includ-ing myself. Saturn in Scorpio, especially when coupled with Neptune in Scorpio and twelfth house matters, seems to be about days of reckoning, tough spiritual love, spiritual discipline, getting to the core of the growth process, beyond fluff and glamor and into the real nitty-gritty of what it means to be spirit and love in

action.

Saturn/Neptune in Scorpio combined are about a spirituality that is not just in words, but which includes taking respon-sibility for all actions/ intent present and past and cleaning them up.. It’s about no nonsense spirituality. Even old fashioned notions, such as repentance and forgive-ness, may be up for processing at this time.

We have been conditioned lately via new age teachings to feel that there is no place for remorse and guilt in our growth process. And while these are very nega-tive energies to hold onto beyond a few moments, they do serve a purpose. Their purpose is to alert us as to when we have dropped of our own soul’s path and drift-ed from our true north, both as far as our own selves and personal direction, as well as far as the way in which we treat others. If the people behind Monsanto experienced guilt , they could not do what they do. Their conscience would not al-low it. And this is why one of the elite’s yearly rituals is the Cremation of Care. Empathy, caring and the guilt/shame emotional feedback loop resulting from service to self deeds at the detriment of others would make it otherwise impos-sible to act in non-life aligned ways. To be truly a service to self being therefore care needs to be sacrificed.

One of the signature traits of narcissism and psychopathy is the lack of care and feedback loops such as remorse. There is therefore a place for feeling bad about stuff, it’s called having a conscience.


And if one listens to that conscience, and self corrects, one can quickly release the feeling bad factor and begin anew. Saturn in Scorpio is all about unearth-ing the shadow deeds from the vaults of time and from the Akashic records both, so that they can be seen, owned, released and healed. Owing the shad-ow deeds is not about self-punishment, but about breaking out of denial and accepting responsibility in a way that leads to true change. As you can see this is a time of dramatic purging for all.

The Galactic Solar Shift and The First Wave

Astrology aside, this is also a pivotal time in the Galactic-Solar Shift. It seems that the process that many refer to as ascen-sion, the process via which we have the opportunity to shift in consciousness to other dimensional planes of experience, has not only been gathering momentum, but has began its first wave of opening and closing of doorways. Much infor-mation has been coming through in the past few weeks about the fact that we are indeed in the process of getting on a bus to somewhere energetically new and that during the next few years there will be many doorways and windows opening, allowing for further new reality bridging. Doorways to new awareness and new levels of being within ourselves and the way we experience the world.

There are many vibrational levels on which we can exist and many Earths cor-responding to each level, each on its own vibrational plane. As we shift higher in vi-bration, we lock with other higher vibrat-

ing Earth realities. And once our vibra-tions stabilize we permanently lock into and anchor into a dominant experience of being. It’s not the new Earth that is here, but rather it is us that have arrived at a in-ner vibrational threshold which opens the gateways to a new experience of the same Earth on a different dimensional plane.

For the past few years we have been wobbling between different dimension-al realities of Earth experience, as we also wobble between different dimen-sional realities of our own inner being, blinking in and out of high conscious-ness. As we rise and stabilize into the high vibrational streams (and clearing and releasing of baggage is required to achieve this), we are docking into the new realities in more stable ways.

Walking through the doorways occurs when our new permanent energetic an-chor point shifts to the higher vibrating Earth and we leave the old realities be-hind. We can still see them, but our inner experience resides elsewhere. Eventual-ly, some years from now, I am shown that we will move off the node. At that point, the different Earth realities will begin to truly separate. We will not only be fully anchored in a different experience, but we will also be vibrationally separated to the point that we won’t even be able to witness what has been left behind.

I have been shown that there are seven waves of doorway crossing of which the first one is now completed. If you have crossed this energy threshold, you may actually know this intuitively, as things will look the same but feel different.


The first group of Souls has crossed, but there will be six more opportunities for groups of Souls to follow, until we exit the nodal point between realities. This all sounds very far fetched, I know, but this is what myself and other people I am connected to see.

There really is a Galactic Solar accelera-tion process going on of large magnitude, what in the Law of One was described as The Harvest, and we are smack bang in the middle of it, right now.

The good news about this transition is that manifestation and synchronicities are also accelerating for those that are successfully participating in this process. It seems that the new Earth reality, or should we say the higher vibrational con-sciousness that allows access to it, is a place in which consciousness and mani-festation move much faster and more ef-fectively than we are used to, provided that we are clear about what we are do-ing and shadow free. This is also one of the reasons for which we have been guided to clear our stuff exceptionally well, as you do not really want to land in this zone, manifesting a bunch of block-ages and darkness. Not that this is pos-sible anyway. If on the other hand you have not yet crossed into this zone all the way and are still blinking in and out, this is a time to do your Soul homework. Clean up your stuff, karma present and past. The energies are very supportive of all clean up operations at this time. Sometimes, if we like it or not ;-)

The reward, however, is a bright and shiny new energetic experience.

So, as usual, hold your hats, as its go-ing to be a fast and exhilarating ride… go with what presents itself, don’t fight it and you may end up enjoying the process, as the potential for big shifts is huge for those who dare to shed it all ….

May you walk in Beauty across all door-ways and thresholds.

Big loveKatie

To challenge someone, let’s say in a duel, means that you are being called upon to show ‘who you are;’ and in that sense, life’s challenges are just that….only with life challenges, we are called upon to display who we Really Are….

The capitalization of those two words, “Really and Are,” basically mean our Real Self…our Divine, Higher Self; some call it a Soul…some call it “God” in physical form. Whatever the name, we are referring to that True Self; the Divinitythat we Really Are.

A challenge, therefore is nothing more than an opportunity to show US that part of Self we often are not even aware of, unless we are…For to Experience ourselves in our God-State, or what some may refer to as our “Christed Self,” or Christ Consciousness is truly what we are ‘up to.’ And that is because our pure and only Real aspect of who we are is…A Spirit Having A Human Experi-ence.

As challenges may come along, and as we are incarnated as a Human Being, we get to decide what we wish to be in relation to that challenge, with the ulti-mate goal: to choose and decide to Be that Divine Self, that which some call Love. To be Loving at all times is what a Master is, for a Master sees all the world as aspects of his True Self, for in reality, there is only One Being sitting here….and we are all part of that One-ness, called God. Therefore, a Master never ‘curses the darkness,’ for he/she knows that it is all Sacred, all Divine, and

that fear and darkness are but illusions; they, and other life experiences and chal-lenges, are sent to himself by himself, to define Self.

For when it finally comes to what we are doing here, we are living a life that is filled with ‘challenges,’ which are really only opportunities in disguise, to help us experience, “Who We Really Are,” and all life’s events are based on our perspec-tive of that Holy Perception….for when you know who you Really Are, and live that, you then experience Heaven….And that Nivana, that Holy Place sought by all, is truly in our “One Mind,” which is always with us, and is always……..Here Now.

“ To the mind that is still, the whole universe surrenders.”

~Lao Tzu

Life becomes cluttered. Ideas, situa-tions and difficulties swirl our minds into a chaotic mess. Thoughts run rampant, feelings ooze forth, and mind won’t fo-cus. The earth, body, spirit, connection gets lost. We find ourselves in a state of confusion, desperately trying to find clar-ity and a state of equanimity.

A walk in nature, talking to a friend, or listening to mellow music can provide some relief. However I have discovered that the daily practice of transforming a room in my home into sacred space fills my longing and provides a dependable means by which I can re-establish the flow.

Years ago my husband and I, former yoga teachers, needed a place to prac-tice yoga and meditate each morn-ing. We did not have an extra room, so

we selected our large family room. The room had an orderly ambience but absolutely no uplifting qualities.

In order to change the feeling, the aura and vibrations of the space into a reso-nant holy environment we truly had some work to do. Using an existing multi-use space for sacred purposes seemed a challenge but later revealed itself as a gift in teaching us the process of trans-formation. We consciously transfigured strident energies to create a highly vi-brating and inviting sacred space.

We collected spiritual chants and music to invoke a higher resonance. We settled on a few cd’s to play in a particular order to accompany us from the beginning in-vocation and lighting of incense through our yoga postures, bows and Qigong, ending with a meditation. Candles of various sizes and tiny, flickering votive lights in colored glass arranged around the room spread a magical glow through the musically infused darkness.

Creating Sacred Space


Prayerful, reverent, inspiring feelings rise up within us as we silently do our daily practice in the highly charged envi-ronment. It fills us with peaceful harmoni-ous vibrations resonating at a higher en-ergy than when we entered the common space.

Daily we transform our space from mun-dane to mystical. We create a portal for the ever-present Divine to shine through. We become spiritually nourished within the palpable stillness; we can touch the Holy. Layer upon layer of internal con-cerns melt away as we absorb the spa-cious quietude.

Create this for yourself. Sacred space is essential for clarity and healing. Be it a closet or living room, provide yourself with a resident temple of your own inspi-ration. Receive your guidance and intu-ition, basking in the light of God. Make each moment an occasion to live deeply, happily in peace. Bless us all!

“This Universe is not outside of you. Look inside yourself;

everything that you want, you already are.”

Spiritual Growth Checkpoint:

Earth Day is Every Day!

Here we are on planet Earth, a planet we very much wanted to be on at this time in history, and an appropriate question to ask ourselves is this: are we doing every-thing we can to help our planet? After all, looking after the health and well-being our planet is part of our job as Lightwork-ers.

Let’s talk Earth Day. April 22, 1970, was the first Earth Day ever, and I was twelve years old and in seventh grade. Even at that young age, I remember thinking how exciting it was to have a day to celebrate the Earth. There were lots and lots of people making posters and talking about it at Clarkstown Junior High School, and as I recall my girl scout troup formed a clean-up crew to get out there and make a difference for our planet in our little

town of Congers, New York.

That was forty-three years ago, and the creation of Earth Day marked the begin-ning of the environmental movement. It was founded by then Wisconsin Senator Gaylord Nelson in response to the 1969 oil spill in Santa Barbara and the student anti-war movement that was happening at the time. Nelson’s idea was to com-bine the energy and focus of the students with the emerging public consciousness about pollution in order to inspire all of the existing conservation groups to work together. It worked, and the first Earth Day led to the creation of the United States Environmental Protection Agency, as well as the passage of the Clean Air, Clean Water, and Endangered Species Acts.


Speaking from a metaphysical point of view, it makes perfect sense that Earth Day was created during a time when a wave of Lightworkers, commonly known then as Hippies, were working hard to change systems and paradigms that were standing in the way of the evolu-tion of the human race. Earth Day was a radical idea in 1970. The idea of rais-ing our vibrational levels and becoming 5th dimensional human beings is a radi-cal idea today. All change starts some-where, and here on Earth, it starts with a collective commitment to make the hu-man race and planet Earth better, stron-ger, and something more than ever be-fore.

We’re here on Earth because we have work to do, and there are many things we can do to help our planet in addition to pumping out positive energy on a dai-ly basis; watching our thoughts, words, and actions; and focusing on the here and now. In fact, to celebrate Earth Day 2014, why not create a mindset and in-tention of doing at least one nice thing for our planet every single day? And here’s a list of ten ideas to help motivate us to do just that:

1. Re-use gift bags and wrapping paper. I’ve been doing this for many years now, and sometimes, I’ll even use holiday paper for birthdays. No one has com-plained about it yet!

2. Shop at garage and yard sales and have a garage or yard sale. I’ve found “cat trees” that go for $300 in catalogs for $10, planters that would cost $20-30

in the store for a dollar or two apiece at garage sales and lots of other great bar-gains. Garage sales save space in our landfills. If you have a lot of stuff, and you don’t want to have a garage sale, invite your friends over to take what they want or donate it to a charitable organization.

3. Buy re-useable bags for your grocer-ies. When my husband, Ted, and I first started to do this several years ago, we got a lot of strange looks from the ca-shiers at the grocery store. Now nearly every store we shop at sells reusable cloth bags.

4. If you buy bottled water, switch to a brand that uses recycled plastic in its bottles. Better yet, get a permanent wa-ter bottle and keep it filled with filtered water or even tap water. I started doing this several years ago with plain old tap water.

5. Run as many errands as possible in one trip. I do everything that has to be done on one side of the road first, and then hit everything on the other side on the way back. Bundle errands by geo-graphic location, and you’ll save time and gas.

6. Recycle your old cell phones. If they go to the dump, they stay there for years as their batteries exude toxic substances into the landfill. Lots of great organiza-tions are looking for cell phones; try do-nating them to groups that help battered women.

7. Stop using plastic containers. Switch to re-useable containers. My friend, Sue Brennan, brings re-usable contain-ers with her when we go out to eat—so much better than taking leftovers home in a Styrofoam container.

8. Don’t throw away paper if you can use the back of it as scrap paper. I’ve been known to cut 8 ½” x 11” “scrap paper in half or quarters, and staple 20-30 pieces together to make mini-scrap pads.

9. Use a mug at work instead of Styro-foam. I hate washing my mug. I really do, but when I think about the benefit to the planet of cutting back on Styrofoam, I’m happy to rinse it out.

10. Use cotton swabs with a paperboard spindle. According to a website called Fifty Ways to Help the Planet (http://www.50waystohelp.com), “Some brands of cotton swabs have a paperboard spin-dle while others are made of plastic. If 10% of U.S. households switched to a paperboard spindle, the petroleum en-ergy saved per year would be equivalent to over 150,000 gallons of gasoline.” I’ve already made the switch.

Happy Earth Day and cheers to you for all you do to help our beautiful planet every day of the year!

Virgo Moon


Virgo Moon

Art by Maryam Morrisonhttps://www.facebook.com/maryammarts

by Dr. Michael Lennox


The Virgo Moon is getting ready to op-pose the Pisces Sun in what is possi-bly the most important Full Moon of each year. The Virgo/Pisces polarity is about bringing heaven on earth and the connection of Body (Virgo) to Spirit (Pisces). Pisces is the last sign of the zodiac and is the archetype of the infi-nite field of pure potential that we create our lives from. Virgo is the energy that knows how to turn that energy into form. This Full Moon helps us know that same intelligence as a part of ourselves.

The Full Moon is exact at 10:07am PDT on Sunday morning (for those of you overseas, that’s 5:00pm in London and 7:07pm in Pretoria. For those of you down under, the exact moment in Sydney is in the wee hours of Monday morning at 4:07am) but once the Moonis in Virgo (which it is now), we are build-ing toward the vibration in earnest, mak-ing this entire weekend filled with lunar power. The essence of all Full Moons relates to the harvest, where we get to reap the benefit of all the work we’ve been putting in to expanding our con-sciousness. But remember that part of the crop we yield is that which is left behind; the chaff and other inedible materials. In keeping with the farm-ing metaphor, this excess substance is cast off and ultimately decomposes into nutrients that fertilize the next crop. Such is the way with the things in consciousness that we leave behind. The patterns we let go of, the resent-ments we drop and the forgiveness we engage in all allow for this natural

progression to occur. What we release today feeds what we sew tomorrow.

There are a number of Mercury cali-brations that are part of this Full Moon. Mercury is still wrapping up his retro-grade cycle, so there is a direct connec-tion with this lunation and the insights and integrations that occurred by virtue of him making those triple transits that happen every time he goes retrograde. His is just days away from being in his free and clear period where there is no retrograde in sight for several months. Today’s aspects are the very last ones that will hearken back to things that came up in late January and February. Look for issues that came up in the past seven weeks to be wrapping up now.

Mercury will Trine the North Node and Sextile the South Node. This is a transit that helps us process the past in order to move into the future. The Nodes are an opposition that represents our past and our future, our Kharma and Dhar-ma. This aspect divides that opposition into two easily digestible parts, with an energy that allows us to productively un-derstand the stuff we are moving away from (a Sextile to the South Node) and easily move toward the new future we are creating (a Trine to the North Node). This Full Moon can absolutely reveal a great deal about what the past few months have allowed you to uncover, discover and discard. Just don’t try too hard to figure it out and let the wisdom reveal itself to you.


There is a slightly less intense Mercury aspect Sunday as well, a Semi-Square to Pluto. A Semi-Square is a mild con-flict or obstacle that may come up and with Pluto being the object of Mercury’s affection, the issue may be one of au-thority. If you are still looking outside for the source of your power, this transit will make you very uncomfortable until you pull focus back where it belongs; on yourself.

About an hour after the exact moment of the Full Moon, the Sun will Inconjunct Mars who is freshly turned inward in his retrograde status. This is a fork in the road aspect that allows something to be carved off your consciousness and dropped along the way. Intend to let go of what no longer serves you today and this aspect will help you do so. The in-tense activity of Mercury almost guar-antees that what you release will have something to do with thought patterns or communication issues (like that diffi-cult conversation that it is finally time to have).

If you are fortunate enough to be free of any of these sorts of mental chal-lenges, today may be a day where you let your plans change form. Remember that great vision is held with a mighty grip and open palms. We stay dogged-ly committed to our Heart’s Desire, but allow it to change on a dime as new in-formation reveals itself to us. This is also one way that this Full Moon may occur for you.

The Virgo Moon is always benefited by anything that would fall under the aus-pices of “process.” And since Virgo rules the physical body in motion, anything that gets your body moving would be an ideal way to begin to prepare for receive the energy of this Full Moon. Take a walk, do some yoga, go on your favor-ite hike, exercise vigorously. Get your body going and let your Mind take the weekend off. In fact, I wouldn’t devote any of your time to figuring out what you are releasing as much as I would set the intention to release what is ready to be dropped and then go for a long run. The body (and the sign of Virgo) knows what to do without our help.

An Excerpt from Shiva Speaks by Rashmi Khilnani

Grace

I wish for you to be ordinary in your extraordinariness and make it okay to be extraordinary within thesimple, peaceful ordinariness of your being.

As I keep saying, don’t take things too literally, come out of themind and feel the energy of my teaching in your heart,

which is beyond words.

and Purity of Heart


Babaji: Let it be known that, no mat-ter how deeply you master the wisdom of Cosmic Consciousness on the path toward enlightenment, this is ultimately not the greatest supreme truth; it is the truth of divine consciousness. By this I mean that all things are subject to impu-rity once they move out of the unmanifest realm into being manifest reality. Many of you have asked yourselves and each other as to how, even though I am Maha Avatar, I was still subject to disease and early death of my 1970/80’s body as Haidakhan Baba. Many of the greatest saints and enlightened beings on earth have passed over through diseases like heart attacks and cancer, and I was no exception.

This is because, as I have just clarified to you, even the divine Avataric energy, when stepped down into the physical realm in a physical body, is to a certain extent subject to the laws of 3rd dimen-sionality, the laws of the relative.

I wish for you now, my beloved children, to aim for the highest spiritual attain-ment, which is beyond a deep esoteric understanding of cosmic consciousness (though it contains this knowledge and experiential wisdom). Intend to become one with the divine truth, which has its home in the unmanifest, in supreme si-lence, in the great void, and in divine mystery and can be accessed in deep meditation, transcendental states, and mystical experience. Ask for the grace of these celestial boons. This illumination and wisdom cannot be commanded and demanded but can be achieved through

grace, prayer, wholehearted devotion to the divine, and wholehearted ser-vice to all everywhere. Keep moving on the spiritual path from the lower truth to higher truth, until you come to that place deep within you, one that is silent, that is peaceful, and that is pure beingness and beyond judgment. As you progress, keep letting go of the many impurities that get stuck to the so-called religious and spiritual paths and “isms.” For example, if you are preaching compassion while being selfish and unaware of your own energy and where it is stuck in impurity, then you are deluding yourself that you are a compassionate person.

It is important for my people to “walk their talk.” As I keep telling you, impeccabil-ity of thought, word, and deed will bring great grace into your life right now. To follow half-baked spiritual leaders and mediocrity will no longer serve you and will only increase your suffering.

I require for you to be wholehearted. Half-heartedness falls short. When you are half-hearted about something, you create half a space in your being for ignorance and negativity to come through into your being and latch on to you. Remember when you fool yourself, this leads to the greatest misery of all. There is no point in continuing to be a hypocrite. There is no point in talking about peace and hav-ing thoughts of war, hate, and distrust. If you say that you are open-minded and openhearted, make sure that you begin to match these energies in thought, word, and deed.


Once you become simple and release the shadow through recognizing it, releasing judgment and forgiving yourself, you be-come the light, you become peace, and you are supreme silence. This allows great energy, synchronicity, and flow to enter and a letting go or a falling away of struggle, blame, shame, and victimhood. Weed your garden of all dishonesty with-in yourself—be it mental, physical, emo-tional, or spiritual.

The time of Kali is here now. The god-dess Kali will destroy all dishonesty, mental filth, prejudice, insincerity, and greed. If you are compromised by the darkness, you have a very good chance of catching the disease of ignorance and of totally dimming the light of the spiritu-al knowingness within you. Why choose the depths of such a hell of negative con-sciousness and darkness when peace, love, truth, and simplicity are your intrin-sic inner nature and are flourishing in the Age of Aquarius—the time to wake up to the Satya Yuga frequencies. It is time now to let go of your identification with your name, your nationality, and all the other assorted labels that have been given to you from outside sources. You are a cosmic being and becoming and ultimately you are pristine, divine, silent, omniscient, pure potentiality— the un-manifest.

But, also remember, dear ones: the sid-dhis (magical abilities) are not granted by the divine to those who will misuse power and act solely and wholly from the agenda of the ego-oriented psyche. The divine will take away these celestial gifts

when a particular entity moves from unity consciousness and love to delusions of grandeur, separateness, and control. I wish for you to be ordinary in your ex-traordinariness and make it okay to be extraordinary within the simple, peaceful ordinariness of your being. As I keep say-ing, don’t take things too literally, come out of the mind and feel the energy of my teaching in your heart which is beyond words.

Ask for the grace to be helped where you are stuck.

As you know dear ones, Universal law is paradoxical and therefore quite humor-ous. Yes, you as humanity are in a totally free-will zone where the Creator allows you to choose, and the law of cause and effect give you the fruits of those choic-es. As I have said before, it is time for you to take total responsibility for the choices you make consciously and sub-consciously and to stop pointing the fin-ger. The paradox, of the law of free will on earth, is the law that to totally become one with divine truth within and without, one is eventually required to totally sur-render the will of one’s ego to the divine will within.

Ultimately, the divine plan and the plan of your divine self within—let’s call it your soul’s agenda—are one. The ego usually has a very different scheme. True Divinity can only be accomplished through surrendering to the divine within and without as I have just said. Basical-ly the energy of divine will is far greater than the energy of the will of the ego.

You know this intellectually and yet you do not follow this wisdom. It is okay to allow your personality/ego self its unique flavor and its individual stance as long as at the core, the divine will is your equalizer, overriding influence on all lev-els at all times.

This helps to purify the ego self and helps it to move away from separation, limitation, and control toward a wondrous flowering of an unique individuality aris-ing from within the innate wisdom of the oneness, the organic wholeness, and the non-separation of all people, plac-es, ideas, and energies. I wish for you as warriors of awareness to be alert, to be aware, to be ready and to be totally flexible moment to moment. The new world is at your doorstep. Prepare for the dawning of an age of great love, light, and unity.

Babaji, thank you from the bottom of our hearts for being with us so strongly and powerfully here now, and sharing with us your vision for a new world from the vast ocean of your unfathomable wisdom and love. We are truly, truly in deep awe and gratitude for this celestial transmis-sion that we have received in the past few weeks. I will endeavor with as much courage, energy, and spiritual power as I can muster, and with your grace, to make these wisdom teachings available to people all over the world who are seek-ing to bridge the old with the new. These wisdom teachings will facilitate the bridg-ing of diversity and the finding of peace-ful harmonious ways in order to resolve:

the unequal distribution of wealth on this planet,

the deep suffering that arises from ignorance,

the problems of ecological pollution, and the conflicts that lead to war

on Earth.There are many that do not believe

that war will end on Earth herenow, and yet millions are waking up

to a higher vibration, a greater senseof trusting in an exponential evolution,

the quantum leap to a highervibration and the paradigm of peace

and heaven on earth.

Babaji: My dearest Rashmi and my dar-ling humanity, I love you all dearly as I have said: I am in your every breath. I feel your every pain and all the joy of your hearts, individually and collectively. As you know, I will see you through to your enlightenment from the darkness to the full reinstatement of a consciousness of light, love, and truth.

Keep tuning in to me, and your journey to this new vista of expansive beingness will be joyous, harmonious and full of bliss and mirth.

Those of you who will continue to stub-bornly choose survival, competition, struggle, control, separation, and need-less suffering will be allowed to play out your dramas of limitation and Kali Yuga darkness! You are in a free-will zone.

IGod is being produced by Robert Friedman and Neale Donald Walsh, and directed by Jonathan Fried-man.

Let it be known though, that this obses-sion with the dark will become increas-ingly difficult to practice as a wave of su-preme light consciousness sweeps your third dimensional reality, and transforms it into the eternal newness of the Unified field of Oneness.

No matter how many miracles occur in your life and how many mystically expe-riences you may enjoy, I want you to re-member the silence and the simplicity of who you be. No matter how much spiritu-ality you attain, remember that if you be-come too egotistical about it, you will lose these states of being and fall from grace.

Total grace demands total purity and sim-plicity of the heart that sees the oneness in the diversity and serves this oneness steadfastly at all times and on all levels. Only such a one of pristine impeccability will go through the eye of the needle and be able to walk through the cleansing fire and overcome the storms and earth-birth changes of Mahakranti. Let us go into the silence now, let us become one in thissilence together, let us merge into the ocean of oneness and from this merging, and let us become nothing, nowhere—just pure beingness, supreme bliss, and supreme ecstasy. All is one.

A vast sea of sadness stagnates within me .

The vastness of this sadness resembles to the Ocean that separates the continents and embraces the islands.

Our non-acknowledged life does not resemble to a huge, steeped in grief island.

An entirely isolated and abandoned island in the winds of sadness, believing that the rays of the Sun of God, the One and Unique, have been dismissed.

What sort of filter took away the life-sustaining Sun, who keeps the keys to our Liberty?

How to win our Infinite Time in the Ocean of Sadness?

Our eternity was erased beyond the clouds of vanity and arrogance .

Many times I bleed my wings in this Ocean of Sadness, as the wind shoves me over the huge waves whereas I am released.

When the wings being exhausted by the winds and flows, a force attracts me closer to the sad song of the Ocean .

Deep within it the crying of Nereides, the tear of the Si-rens, the pain of the Fairies, and mourning of the Dol-phins hidden resides.

“Oh God, how could you let so many beings fall into the nets of the enemies ?”Did you offer us as a gift to the Minotaurs, to sate their appetite ?

We are the sacrificed Iphigenia to blow the wind in its sails of Earthly freedom.

We were brought as treasures by our Parents, Cosmic Beings from distant stars to drip our Light within grief.

THE WEEPING OF

NEREIDESBy Katerina Kostaki


his Light dripping like melted wax was named Supreme Love .

By the sacrifice of Iphigenia an entire trip, a war, a trag-edy, and an Odyssey was sealed.

Does this supreme sacrifice worth in the Ocean of Sad-ness ?

How many Iphigenia’s still needed to be sacrificed even-tually listening to the magic calls, seeing Angels flutter-ing, signs of Love and fires in the blue sky ?

How long shall the Redemption will be a myth, a legend and belief ?

When Angels shall touch their wings over the edges of the ends of the world to change ocean waters sore?

The tears of aching Nereides, who were caught in the nets of Death, sent a message to the Cosmic Ocean.

Has anyone received it?

Who will bring the clouds of oblivion to hide the bitterness of the heart?Yes, it is the sadness of the lost moons, reflecting the light upon a vast non-earthly sea .

In the depths of the Archipelagos whereas the Light of the Moon is dismissed in the abyss, the Nereides imple-ment the most powerful weapon : the Inner Light.

Twinkle in the dark as Light Fairies in crystal fields, so the powerful enemies and unsafe entities by viewing the Nereides are being scared of.*A tribute to celestial entities, Nereides, Fairies and dol-phins of the Sea incarnated upon Earth to save and awaken Earth and Mankind.

In Love and Peace

ATLANTEAN GOLDEN AGE AND OUR COSMIC DANCE OF EVOLUTIONBy colleen costello



This was a time, many thousands of years ago – the 4th Golden Age – when everyone had high frequency of light of a higher dimension, that of angels and light beings.

This was the 5th dimension, they shone with pure light and joyously lived in the moment.

Gaia was a planet of beauty as she was in the golden times of Lemuria.

Atlantis was a great land where Atlantic ocean is; destroyed before, then again over 12,000 years ago.

At her height there was harmony and in-nocence:

… They appreciated their surrounds and everything living, remembering their con-nection in Spirit to each other and Father God.

… Their words and deeds intended for highest good.

… Would not harm Gaia, remembering she gave food to nourish them, and her beauty.

… People and animals didn’t eat flesh, only grains and purest foods Gaia of-fered.

… Telepathic, artistic, intuitive, creative, could teleport – of the right brain.

… Appreciative to live on earth for the

experiment to see if they could keep their Divine connection to God while in their human vessel.

… Grateful and excited to experience the senses and hear music of birds, wind, trees, and be there at an innocent time.

… Advanced spiritual souls able to con-tact other beings in other words or plan-ets.

… Crystal technology – highly advanced – used to benefit their lives and nature.

… Magnificent pyramid buildings – many of crystal, overlighted with crystalline light; temples for healing and more.

… Elders could bring down energies to power their works or homes.

… Smaller personal crystals took power from big crystal through lines of a sys-tem for learning, via their 3rd eye. Larger crystals for healing, teaching.

… In a temple ‘The Violet Flame’ (light) helped people feel good. At the end of their lifespan, would walk into this light, go to another dimension and world on their journey back to God. They under-stood we don’t die, just change form.


Many thousands of years later Atlan-tis split leaving two main islands and 2 groups:

‘The Law of One’ with loving hearts, on Island of Poseida, AND

‘Sons of Belial’ Island of Aryan who, after a while became controlling, greedy.

Over time many others followed, then At-lantis ended as had Lemuria.

Those who survived ‘end times’ of earth-quakes, giant waves, journeyed from Poseida to Yucatan and other lands.

West Indies, the tips of mountains came up again after Atlantis went down.

Remnants apparently found including Bumini Islands, thought part of Atlantean mountain range; road ruins and buildings nearby and underwater near Morocco.

Records refer to remains of roads, pyra-mids, relics underwater from Bahamas to Africa and European coasts, America: remains found in Yucatan, Pyrenees.

The magnificent Golden Age is returning again. We are experiencing a quantum leap of awareness and the light spec-trums covering Gaia are penetrating our DNA and eventually change our bodies aligning us more closely with our higher self.

We will have the chance to bring ‘Heaven to Earth’ again.

OPENING YOUR EYES TO THE RADIANT BEAUTY

SACRED DUTY and OPPORTUNITY

Based on excerpts from “The Impeccable Warrior of Light” book

To understand our Highest Destiny, we must comprehend our role here on Earth and the Sacred Duty that walking on this Radiant Jewel entails. We are here to live as Impeccable Warriors of Light. The sa-cred assignment we committed to when we agreed to incarnate on the Blue Jewel was to utilize everything around us to be-come Impeccable Warriors of Light.

Our Planet is considered a Radiant Jewel within the many Galaxies and Universes. The Wise Ones, The Impeccable War-riors of Light, are absolutely aware of the Grand Honor it is to take birth on the Beauty-full Flowering Earth.

The Saints, Sages and Masters of Light have revealed in countless scriptures and Teachings that it is not easy to be granted a birth on Mother Earth, as there is a long list of souls waiting in line for a

chance to re-embody here. Innumerable factors must come together in the most Perfect way for an Earth re-incarnation to be granted. It may take hundreds or thousands of years for that window of Opportunity to present itself and when it does the soul celebrates!

If we don’t recognize this fact and can-not appreciate Mother Earth’s innumer-able Gifts and the abundant Divine sus-tenance available to us at all times, it is only due to layers of dark energies that cause ignorance of our Sacred Duty. Our Sacred Duty is to Appreciate, be Great-full, to see the Blessing in every lesson...and be fully committed to mastering our assignment here. By being totally pres-ent, we are able to perceive and receive the Divine gifts that are All-Ways being bestowed upon us.


We cannot be fully grounded and present if our Attention and Energies are concen-trated on escape from the Mother Earth plane. This is a symptom of Shamanic Amnesia: forgetting our Divine Essence and Divine Assignment to walk on Moth-er Earth as Impeccable Warriors of Light. Many sensitive beings are negatively im-pacted by their Earth adventures and be-come focused on suicide, or adopt the at-titude that they refuse to re-incarnate on the Blue Jewel Realm ever again.

This is an erroneous perspective, spon-sored by forces that are hostile towards the Light. These destructive forces are thoroughly intent on driving these Good people off the Mother Planet before their destined time of departure. Impeccable Warriors of Light do not listen to such malicious energies. Instead, Impeccable Warriors of Light keep their energetic field clean and pure by utilizing Sacred Sound, Healing Mantras, Shamanic practices such as smudging and working with the Shaman’s Rattle. By clearing any destruc-tive energy from their body, space and possessions, they maintain their energy field at the Highest level.

This is an Excellent arena that grants us the Profound Opportunity to master im-mense Spiritual Principles such as Forgive-ness, Compassion, Courage Strength, Universal Love, Self Love, Balance and un-wavering Devotion to the Light…while being surrounded by conditions which can plunge us into an abyss of illusion.

To live in Peace despite the inner and outer battles taking place, we must main-tain the Golden Awareness that we chose

to incarnate on this phenomenal playing field to experience the dance of the po-larities: the cosmic battle between Good and Evil. Even while being aware of the suffering that takes place here, we do not have to become depressed, bitter or constant wailers about “the terrible Earth conditions.” The refinement of the Golden Virtues allows us to advance as Spiritual beings to an elevated state of Wisdom Consciousness that Supports Apprecia-tion of our time on Beloved Mother Earth. When we realize how many souls in the spirit world wish they could reincarnate on Planet Earth, we can perceive Life on the Radiant Jewel as a Supreme Blessing, rather than a curse.

our Life experiences on Planet Earth are Golden Jewels that grant Great Wisdom if you pay close Attention. Life on Madre Tierra is THE testing ground for our soul, and an Immense Opportunity to purify the karmic seeds we have planted and re-enforced over so many Lifetimes. It is a Golden Chance to recognize and trans-form the many samskaras, negative psy-chic impressions we are carrying within us.

Impeccable Warrior of Light Tools expand the Light within you and by increasing your Light, can remove the haze of igno-rance, confusion and heavy resistance to being on Planet Earth. The Grace be-stowed opens the doors to recognition of the Blessings bestowed through a human birth. Without Radiant Spiritual Protection, a seeker is not able to fully relish their hu-man incarnation.


God’s Perfection is in all that appears around us. Once we see everything as God’s Perfect Plan, we do not leak our Golden Energy by resisting the Perfect lesson offered to us. The True Reality is that all situations, all experiences, both seemingly Good and seemingly nega-tive are custom-designed to move you towards EnLightenment. They are all an Opportunity to gain Self Awareness, Self Love, Self Respect and Self Balance. When someone is not in resistance…when their Wisdom is established within, they are constantly flooded with Appreci-ation for the factors and forces that cus-tomized the perfect classroom and perfect lessons that resulted in Awakening to their Divine Essence.

When we can fully accept that which is gifted to us…when we can identify the Blessing in every occurrence...we live in Joy and Reverence as an ecstatic being. Spirit’s Perfection is in BOTH the chal-lenges and rewards that appear before us. By walking through Life with this con-viction, we are able to full-fill our Sacred Duty, which is to praise and EnJoy Life to the Highest degree.

As we develop an unwavering Faith in God’s Perfect Plan, we truly Honor Life on the Radiant Jewel by Lovingly Appre-ciating every minute of it. With the Grace generated by maintaining steady Spiritual Protection practices, we are able to exist in a state of Lightness during the times that appear to be ‘trying’, as well as the sweet cycles.

I EnCourage you to amplify the Light by implementing the Impeccable Warrior of

Light Tools and Teachings so you CAN see the Radiant Beauty and embrace your Sacred Duty with Zest and Gusto. Our Sa-cred Duty is to DILIGENTLY employ the Positive Principles of the Universe, the Golden Virtues and Golden Laws. By un-swervingly applying them to every chal-lenge, we ensure our Triumph on behalf of the Legions of Light. The lessons we extract from each conflict constitute the Honor badges, medals of Courage and Wisdom staffs we earn and are awarded by the Forces of Light.

May you All Ways remember that your Sacred Duty is to refine the Spiritual weap-ons Spirit has given you for the purpose of upholding the Spiritual Laws. When you live in this expanded Consciousness you will experience being the master of your own Destiny and victim of none. The reward of devoting your energies to IMPECCABLE, GOLDEN ATTENTION and INTENTION is the Soul-Satisfaction that comes from savoring your Pilgrim-age on Mother Earth as a Sacred Being of Light.

My Love is with you, every step of the way....

JAI JAI MAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

THE SPARKLE

IN YOUR EYE


My Beloved Children,

“I am flowing in the ripples of joy as I greet you. Today I will share with you a pathway to your heart where you will be able to explore in greater depth your di-vine nature.

As I ponder on you, each of you, my heart fills with such joy of your sweet-ness. Each of you holds a special place within my and your Fathers heart. Each of you has your very own song, your own specialness. I know each of you as you dance within my heart always.

Imagine if you will what it feels like to be loved as you are in this very mo-ment, nothing to fix in order to be loved, no weight to shift, no degree to obtain, doesn’t matter the size of your bank ac-count. Imagine what it would be like to feel this love, to know the unconditional acceptance and loving support of you and your journey, to know that you are loved always and in all ways. This is the nature of divine love and is your birth-right.

Truthfully, you are on a quest to remem-ber this for it is divine truth. The journey to remember and embrace your perfec-tion has been filled with interesting expe-riences and expressions of life and living.

As we continue on this glorious journey of life, a new opportunity presents to make some leaps in discovering more of your divine nature and truth. Today I will share with you this glorious op-portunity, so that you may ponder as to whether you wish to take this pathway of the heart. Know that your choices are always honored. Also know that your journey is unique to you, adding into your very flavor. Each of you are evolving at your own pace and choosing, and each of you will succeed for the way home is written for all.

Many years ago in the beginning, path-ways were set into place that would as-sist you in remembering your sacred truth, knowing that the time would come when the desire within your heart would become so strong you would search for answers. The quest to fill what the heart seemed to long for, would lead you on a great adventure, a journey of remem-bering the truth of what is and always has been your truth.

Did you know that I held you in my arms when you were born, looking into your eyes, seeing the sparkle of you. One of my greatest moments I share with you. You can remember this if you choose and I will help you, for as I look into your eyes my love for you was forever imprinted for you to see and feel.

by Jan DianaMessage from the Goddess Mother


Take a moment to ponder on this allow-ing it to enter your heart awakening that spark of remembering this glorious expe-rience. Feel the joy as your focus turns to this moment of great love, where you and I embraced in the wonder of you.

It is a most delicious and glorious thought is it not! Let us open up the gateway a bit more so that you can feel and know what this gift brings to you now at this most opportune time in your life.

Many of you have heard that the eyes are like windows to the soul. They are windows to your very heart, where the source of your true self resides. Your light shines so brightly and can be known and recognized with focused intent.

Within the beautiful connection we made at your birth you were gifted with sacred codes that would ignite in your readi-ness and choosing. It is your time if you choose, to ignite these codes of remem-bering the lightness of your sacred self. With intention you can use the following exercise and watch the wonder unfold.

Imagine yourself in front of a glorious looking glass, a beautiful mirror with golden trim or you may do this in front of a mirror of your choosing. As you gaze upon your reflection, look into your eyes and hold that focus. You will begin to feel a connection, like a stream of light shin-ing from this beautiful reflection into your awareness now. As you hold this focus, you will begin to see a little spark of light, and as you continue to focus it will be-come a sparkle as the spark of light be-

gins its dance.

It is a beautiful connection, a transmis-sion of the heart light seen through the eyes. Be with this for as long as you de-sire and allow the dance to radiate its joy. As you practice this, it will become very easy for you to see this beautiful sparkle every time you look into a mirror.

As you begin to see the sparkle in your eye you will also begin to notice many wonders appearing in your life. You will notice more of the joy of living as you go through your life experiences. This will inspire you and bring you even great-er joy as you more easily discover your divine nature and all that is possible for you.

You will also begin to notice the sparkle in the eye of those around you and feel the connection of heart that is the truth that is shared with all of my children. There is great joy in feeling the intercon-nectedness with all, as you remember your family of heart.

This is a time of celebration for it is time for you to know your truth and to dance in the joy of this awareness. I am forever connected with you, holding the vision with you of all the dreams of your heart that you desire to live and express. It is only for you to choose, design, and take the actions that support. Let go of any limiting thoughts and beliefs, they are of the past. Fully embrace the divine na-ture of your true self. It is your time to leap forward into living in joy, consciously creating all that you desire.


I am with you always, cheering you on, celebrating in your wonder. You are my children of light, dream your way into your new tomorrows.”

Emotions, Visualizations and the Sacred Pause

The Sacred Pause Tucson, Arizona

by Hoda Mousa

Emotions are our keys to evolving into higher consciousness and to under-standing our purpose. They provide us the ability to create our world and mani-fest our highest desires. Accepting our emotions allows us to learn who we are and take responsibility for the events oc-curring in our inner and outer worlds.

Emotions generate feelings, which allow us to understand our identity and soul signature. It is the key to allowing new energy to infuse, awaken and recharge us. We need emotion to connect us to our spiritual self and it is essential to understanding our inner spirituality. The mental and physical body are linked, as are the emotional and spiritual body. The spiritual body exists beyond physi-cal limitations and allows us to compre-hend the non-physical world.

Most human beings are afraid of feel-ing their emotions and exert great effort to suppress them. We must be mind-ful of our feelings and permit them to flow, without resistance. When we sit with ANY feeling that comes up, it will pass within 90 seconds, IF we don’t get caught up in the story. When we are not afraid of feeling, and move past judg-ment, we ALLOW ourself to understand all the ways we feel. This provides us a tremendous breakthrough, because we will be able to ride our feelings into other realities and accelerate our growth as individuals.

The denial of self and our emotions af-fects the social fabric of society. Denial of self keeps souls from true love for themselves, which does not allow true love to manifest around them.

Emotions, Visualizations and the Sacred Pause


It keeps souls from their lessons, there-fore not reaching their highest potential and claiming their true mission here on earth. Denial of self keeps us from au-thentically knowing what needs to be healed within ourselves, in order to take those nuggets of wisdom forward. By expanding ourselves, we empower oth-ers, and make room for them. We must align our soul, mind, body, and spirit in order to master our emotions. Emotions are the expression of perception.

We must trust ourselves and our feel-ings. We need our emotions and must become friends with them, for they allow us to climb the 12 chakra system where we connect with our multi-dimensional selves. Through feelings, we can assess what is really going on in our lives. They grant us the ability to live in our heart, and register frequency change, where as the logical mind is unable to do so. Our emotions and feelings connect us to humanity and are the keys to living in this reality. We can choose our feelings and be mindful of our vibrations. Are they LOVE or fear vibrations? Are they creating the life our heart desires?

So how do we change from a negative to positive vibration? First we must be aware that it is not the goal to rid our-selves of our emotions. If you are feel-ing a negative emotion, permit yourself to call in the opposite counterpart. For example, if you are sad, imagine how it would be to feel joy and stay in the bliss feeling until it becomes real. It all starts with mindfulness where we be-come aware of our thoughts, triggers

and reactions to the outside world. We are then able to see how our patterns manifest in our reality. It is the ability to engage in the SACRED PAUSE. The sacred pause allows us to practice in-ner peace and the opportunity to forgive ourself, and others in every moment, over and over again. It is the ability to live without judgment.

The Sacred Pause is the moment where you inhale back to the NOW. To expe-rience this, start by inhaling peace and exhaling stress. When you create this pause through this breathing technique, you expand your capacity to stop the mental chatter, and allow yourself to hear your higher guidance. Ask yourself, what is true in this moment? What is re-ally going on? Am I being triggered by an event from the past? Watch for clues from your body. For example, heat ris-ing, anxiety and the inability to sit still. Are your thoughts racing? Is the monkey mind active? Breathe to calm your mind and go for a walk in nature. From there, ask yourself, will I choose to respond to whatever is coming up in the same way I always have or will I choose em-powerment? Will I choose to react with love and compassion or from a place of impulse? We tend to respond to situa-tions, emotions and individuals from a place of conditioned fear. These are our patterns that we learned in our child-hood to cope with our environment, and as adults, we impulsively act them out. Being that these patterns of emotional drama are learned, they can therefore be unlearned. We are the MASTERS of our emotions.


When we embrace our emotions and feelings, transformation will take place. Beauty and JOY will infuse our inner and outer worlds. We are each a light which guides our way. It is always im-perative to walk in light and love, and to teach by example, for we are the new teachers of the ancient ways.

Exercise:

One way to become friends with your feelings and transmute them is through reflective journaling. Reflective journal-ing is the ability to take ALL thoughts, emotions and sensations from our mind, into our heart, down our arms and channeling them through our hands onto paper. This engaging exer-cise is cathartic in nature and allows us to creatively become aware of the “sto-ries” in our mind. It gives us the abil-ity to review and release what is truly happening in our inner world, allowing us an opportunity to reframe our per-ception.

Visualize yourself in an etheric egg of white light upon rising- see it all around your body filling every cell of your be-ing. Take a moment to breathe deeply, inhaling peace and releasing worry. When any emotion or thought comes up, mindfully be aware of it and wel-come it. Grab a journal and list your feelings, your thoughts, ideas, any impulses or patterns that may be com-ing up. Don’t worry about how silly they may sound and allow no judgement. From there, request your higher power to assist in transmuting the energy and

to help fill you with inner love. Finish the exercise with deep breathing and give gratitude to yourself for engaging in this practice. Do this exercise daily or even a few times a day, especially when you are feeling emotional. It will soon become a habit of mindfulness, therefore creating more inner peace in your life.

See the false as false, the true as true.

Look into your heart. Follow your nature.

~Buddha

The hummingbird spirit animal symbol-izes the enjoyment of life and lightness of being. Those who have the humming-bird as a totem are invited to enjoy the sweetness of life, lift up negativity wher-ever it creeps in and express love more fully in their daily endeavors. This fasci-nating bird is capable of the most amaz-ing feats despite its small size, such as traveling great distances or being able to fly backwards. By affinity with the hum-mingbird, those who have this bird as to-tem may be encouraged to develop their adaptability and resiliency while keeping a playful and optimistic outlook.

Hummingbird Meaning

The hummingbird generally symbolizes joy and playfulness, as well as adaptabil-ity. Additional symbolic meanings are:• Lightness of being, enjoyment of life• Being more present• Independence• Bringing playfulness and joy in your life• Lifting up negativity• Swiftness, ability to respond quickly• Resiliency, being able to travel great distances tirelessly

The hummingbird spirit animal and the enjoyment of life

If the hummingbird shows up in your life as a spirit animal, it may remind you to enjoy life’s simple pleasures and take time to enjoy yourself. The humming-bird’s wisdom carries an invitation to take part in and draw to you life’s sweetness, like you would drink the nectar of your own flower.

The call of the hummingbird totem will guide you to open up to love and light-ness in your emotional life. When you see your totem, you are encouraged to open up your heart and expose yourself more to joy and love. It might be time to show how you feel to loved ones or peo-ple who are close to you.

The hummingbird and the power of swiftness and flexibility

The hummingbird is one of the most fas-cinating birds because of its ability to move its body swiftly, change direction quickly and smoothly, seemingly gliding from one place to another. By affinity with this power animal, you can be encour-aged to use or develop a similar skill.

When the hummingbird shows up in your life, it may be an invitation to flex you path, perhaps even bending backward or forward, in order to accommodate life’s circumstances. You may be required to adapt to a situation that is a bit more de-manding than usual. The wisdom carried by this spirit animal emphasizes flexibility and lightness in your approach to the un-expected.



The hummingbird, a power animal in-dicative of strong sensibility

By association with the hummingbird power animal, you may have already developed a strong adaptability and are typically quick to respond to any demand. You may also have a high sensibility and feel every nuances of emotions or move-ment in your environment.

Brought to the extreme, this ability may lead you to emotional instability as you shift rapidly from one feeling or mood to another without warning. The humming-bird totem wisdom could challenge you to figure out how to stand strong while being able to move quickly and fly high, whether it’s through your personal or spiritual aspirations.

How to use the hummingbird spirit guide to lift up negativity

The spirit of the hummingbird is a power-ful mean to lighten up your mood when you feel down. This power animal is a useful ally to lift you up and instill more joy and playfulness in your daily grind.

When facing challenges or an environ-ment plagued by negativity, call on the hummingbird to help you bring a posi-tive outlook on the situation and find your way out with optimism.

The hummingbird totem and the wis-dom of accomplishing great feats

Don’t be deceived by the size of this spir-it animal: Even if the hummingbird is one

of the smallest birds, it can travel great distances. Those who have that bird as totem are characterized by their resilien-cy and their ability to run great distances tirelessly. Inspired by this totem, you will be inclined to accomplish what seems impossible to most while keeping it light and enjoyable.

The hummingbird is known for burning a lot of energy quickly to keep flying and therefore needs to find sources of food constantly. If you have the hummingbird as a totem, you may benefit from rest-ing often and taking time to feed your-self with enough, whether it’s physically, emotionally or spiritually, to keep going.
