My Path, My Dreams, My Flow

 

 
My Path, My Dreams, My Flow
 
Have you ever anticipated an event with such excitement that you think you’ll burst?  I just celebrated my 50th Birthday on February 25th and had been excited to step into my fifties for years.  I wasn’t sure what this magical day would bring but I was allowing it to unfold and embraced each moment as it came.  I woke up that morning feeling lighter and happier than I had been in awhile.  I’m not sure what the shift was, maybe it was allowing myself to go with the flow instead of always having to know. 
 
  ‎"It's such a wonderful thing to realize that you can create your own reality without sticking your nose in everybody else's, and that the less attention you give to everybody else's reality, the purer your vibration is going to be -- and the more you are going to be pleased with what comes to you."
 ~ Abraham-Hicks ~ ♥
   
Yes, I’m was planner.  I needed to know what was next and what your plans were so I could adjust my sails to match yours. If they did not match I needed to know which way to turn so that we didn’t collide. Sometimes I would get so wrapped up into “what might happen” that I was causing ripples into my own flow.  Which is of course the only one I have any influence over.
 
I think I have found a path which allows the flow of my life, my dreams, my path to coincide with others.  I don’t have to change my direction to match with another or take sharp turns to avoid a collision. Holding this vibration has me waking up each morning ready to allow my flow to unfold each day as it will.  Ready, Set, Go!!!      
 

 

Namaste’…The light in me greets and honors the light within you.

Energies for March
 
 By Daniele DeVoe, Channel and Healer
The Rune for March is: Odin – The Unknowable, The Blank Rune    
In Ralph Blum’s book, the description of this remarkable Rune begins with these words: “Blank is the end, blank the beginning. This is the Rune of total trust and should be taken as exciting evidence of your most immediate contact with your own true destiny...” Add to this that when this Rune is made by a potter who connects with the alchemy of Rune creation, they take small bits of clay from every other Rune in the set to create this Universal Rune.
Odin, the Rune for March, affirms that our Universe has shifted, the vibration of critical mass has lifted to a new and higher, more light-filled frequency and, as a result, new and outrageous potential is available to us all now!
I remember as a child being told by a teacher that everything that can be thought, written or created has already been done... and I remember the feeling of disappointment and uselessness that came with those teachings. For a child with a desire to create and experience divine inspiration, they were very disempowering words. Well, Odin (and the Faerie Oracle card for March) tells us that there is new thought available, there are new books to write and there are certainly new creations to imagine and to manifest... we have entered into new territory and truly, the sky is not the limit!
 (Reference book: The Book of Runes, by Ralph Blum)
The card from The Faerie’s Oracle, by Brian Froud for March is:     
The Singer of Transfiguration – Transformation, Transcendence, Metamorphosis
And Brian Froud begins his description of this card with: “Jackpot!”
I promise I did not choose either the Rune or the Faerie Card intentionally... every month I pick both the rune and the card randomly during meditation! Some people find these kinds of dynamic symbols scary... mostly because they are scared by change. I happen to love them because they affirm our potential for growth and new experience.
And what they are telling us is that mass consciousness has finally succeeded at lifting humanity out of the vibration that has held us all in old beliefs, old habits and repetitive results! With that success the challenge is to think new thoughts and to try new things... And when you do what you have always done before, expect new results! Why? Because you are performing those well-known tasks from an entirely new space... a higher resonance...
Is there  something you have always dreamed of achieving but never been able to succeed at?  March’s Rune, Odin, and Faerie Oracle Card, The Singer of Transfiguration, both encourage you to try again, use your heart and your intuition and all that you have learned to this point to evolve new ideas about it, and to expect new and previously unattainable outcomes!
Namasté!

Hello you rock hounds and houndettes
 It’s that time again. The first of the month, a new beginning and a new rock! Who shall it be for March?   Hmmm.  Well you’ll all agree this has been a winter of clearing, relearning and just plain “What more can happen?”  The stone that can help you make sense of all this hoo-ha is RUTILATED QUARTZ.  It helps to clear up those cloudy thoughts and helps you to integrate the new learnings, physically and spiritually.
 
 
We all know that winter was created for down time and new inner pursuits; it’s the time for reassessing and recharging our batteries.  And being the brilliant children we are we would all do that if the world would just leave us alone.  So we try to do as much as we can and still keep our other commitments (working, cooking, cleaning & refereeing) and wonder why we can’t think straight!  Rutilated quartz helps you to re-energize by repairing and reinforcing any leaks in your aura.  They are highly protective stones.  They break up negative energy and remove any blocks to forward movement.  There great at releasing the past.  Place the quartz in the palm of your left hand and then cover it with your right.  Now sitting quietly allow the past regrets to flow out of your right hand downward into the stone.  Give yourself some time for this and just let go.  When you feel the stone has absorbed enough, set it aside until you have time to cleanse it under running cold water.   
 
If it has been a very deep and painful release, thank the stone and take it to the nearest body of running water and toss it in.   Then carry with you for the next week another stone to help you stay in balance.  (I’ve done it, it really works.)  Many cultures believe the color of the Rutilation signifies the angel that is working with you.  Gold is Archangel Michael, Red is Urial, Silver is Gabriel and Black is Asreal.   No matter which color you choose your spiritual connections will be clearer and if you channel so will your abilities. 
 
So until next month light beings, Namaste much love and peace.
Namasté

The Art of Dreaming by Carlos Castaneda 
  
By Missy Purcell
Dream references are multiplying like bunnies in the spring: from “If you can dream it you can do it!” to “He’s the man of my dreams” and “Dream on!” We speak of dreams as a metaphor for the highest and best that we can imagine as well as things that are out of the realm of possibility. Oh, and of course, that thing we sometimes do in our sleep! 
Since 2011 is the Chinese Year of the Rabbit, it seems appropriate that we become better acquainted with the portable “rabbit hole” we all have access to – our dreams.  Which brings us to The Art of Dreaming, a re-discovered classic that addresses how we may bridge the natural world of everyday life and an unseen world, referred to as the second attention?
The Art of Dreaming jumped off the shelf at me (as books sometimes do!) so I took the hint and dove in.  Carlos Castaneda takes the training from his teacher, don Juan Matus, and gives us his account of becoming a living bridge between two worlds.  The times we are now living in are begging us to do the same – to open our horizons and become aware of the freedom of perceiving “the essence of everything, energy itself, directly.”
 
The book gives the reader the opportunity to journey along with Castaneda, through the four stages, or “gates” of dreaming.  And what a fantastic journey it is!  “Free your mind… and the rest will follow”, is the theme song here.  Like a modern “Alice in Wonderland”, you will find it impossible to view the world in quite the same way after reading this book.
 
“Don Juan contended that our world, which we believe to be unique and absolute, is only one in a cluster of consecutive worlds, arranged like the layers of an onion.  He asserted that even though we have been energetically conditioned to perceive solely our world, we still have the capability of entering into those other realms, which are as real, unique, absolute, and engulfing as our own world is.”
I encourage you, dear reader, to challenge your conditioning and take this trip down the rabbit hole!   Bleep! Bleep!
Infinite Blessings to You….Missy

Flow With The Flux 
  
 
The other day the word flux showed up in my head while talking about how fast the world seems to be changing and the increasing challenges that are appearing in so many people's lives. I figured it was time to read the actual definition of flux. 1) flow 2) rate of flow 3) a continuous movement or change.

I pick Door Number 3! Yup, continuous change can sure provide the opportunity for a person to think they are going insane. We are in flux like we have never been in flux before (well, I've read that we have been here before but "we" in our bodies of today have not.)

It would be nice if we could put on the brakes and take a breather, but that is not going to happen and we'd only want to take another break, and another. We must learn to be in flow with the flux!

I know, all the teachers are telling you to accept change, embrace change, practice change - and they are absolutely right. But how? Breathe, deeply. Know that you are at choice - you can let go instead of fight the flux. My therapist (Chinese medicine) told me my hip problem was because I was being pulled in too many directions. Allowing would be more accurate. What else was I to do but twist and turn to keep all the balls in the air - flux adding more balls all the time?
 
 
 
Well, I identified which balls must be managed in this moment and let the others drop. Let me tell you there were some people who were not happy with this decision. Later, when I was more balanced and the stabbing in my hip went away, I went to pick up the balls I had dropped and, lo and behold, they were gone! Of course, new balls are always coming my way via flux - some I grab onto, some I let go by.
