This information should not be free, It is not free to just take and idly ponder over. It is not free. Do I have to say that again? No need to be lazy. It takes a lifetime to figure this out and the cost..If you see this and do not use it, then you are missing an incredible opportunity. If you take this, practice it and use it for your community. Give something back, don’t just take. My thought is this if as person you choose not to feel the pain of living, a soul incarnated into mass on a physical plane. If you do not feel this in your body. The pain that you do not feel goes somewhere. It goes to someone else in your family. It goes to a population of people that are not like you and therefore a lesser species. It fuels the criticism and…
In the New Year. 2024. May it be so, may we at least be on our way towards some harmony in the world.
It is so dark out these days, it feels as if we are under a blanket. Even in the early afternoon, the sun is threatening to leave us behind and go somewhere more pleasant. This is that Season. The Silly Season as one of my client’s grandfathers would call it. WE are so busy running around shopping, cooking, cleaning and working. Have the festive spirit for the holidays. Muster up the joy and dig into the credit cards to buy those gifts. I sometimes like to stop and ground the energy in my body and just appreciate the cold, the dark the many things to do. I think “oh yah this is what happens this time of year”. And it goes so fast, this season, before I know it will be the New Year. I love the lights. The candles, the stars, the lights on the trees, the lights on…
Three sightings of the #46 on houses in a row. Four big black birds in the leafless tree, waiting for something. Five women with December birthdays in a car, snaking their way up the mountain to an artist house. A flower fire ceremony there. Last Thursday I had a dream about A, she was in a field young and pretty with glossy black haired, a beautiful smile. She told me she was Free. She died last month. Maybe these omens indicate the end of something, like a cycle and then there will hopefully be the beginning of something else. In my mind I can not fathom how that is possible, we seem to be running ourselves into the ground as a country and everything is fractured. All I see is people not knowing themselves, making selfish decisions that support their fears and their belief that they deserve more than someone…
There are two different expressions of Shen in Chinese Medical philosophy. Little Shen and Big Shen. Little Shen is the space within our Hearts, that Our Spirit nestles within. This space is created at the moment of our conception when the Jing forces of the sperm and ovum merge. There is a spark of light, a conversion of energy, as a union occurs, a space is opened and the Spirit migrates from the stars. The star dust fills the void and settles in for a journey of a Human existence, a life. Cells begin to divide instantly and the beginning of a pre-determined path get’s underway, many choices, many twists and turns many options to come. Big Shen is all of the Spirits that provide the self with consciousness and access to great awareness. There are Five (Shen, Hun, Yi, Po, Zhi) they assist us in living out our predetermined…
All persons are gifted, if you embrace your gift, you will never live a “normal life”. “In fact, normalcy is the enemy of giftedness. Listen, to me now, and believe me later.” Clarissa Pinkola Estes In the personal profiling system called Human Design, it is known fact that we all have superpowers, found within our design. We are all perfect in that design and once we can tap into our inner path, bring our talents to the community. We will thrive, we were not meant to be the same as everyone else, nor were we meant to be seen as different or other. We are all unique and similar, it is more important that we break away from the conveyor belt of capitalism and see ourselves, accept ourselves for what we actually Are. I believe that deep down we know this as a truth and we know what our…
A Yin Year of burrowing into the depth. A year to socialize with close friends and tend to valuable relationships. I could not help think of the story, Watership Down, by Richard Adams. Not exactly a Yin story of going inward , experiencing alchemical transformation. A Yang , gory adventure of finding freedom in a world fraught with danger. Yet it was about Rabbitssss, I learned a lot about rabbits from that story, some was even accurate. It was about trusting their inner guts being brave and taking risks, knowing when to move into the unknown . I am always guilty of seeing connections in everything and I see it here. Trusting your loved ones moving ahead into new stages, the year of the Water Rabbitissss. Next year is the year of the Water Dragon and everything is going to explode in a Yang fashion. So rest my pretties in this year,…
New Year’s resolution time. NOT interested , setting up arbitrary improvements to waste my limited time and energy. But after discussing resolutions with a number of people, I decided that it would be fun to talk about what would be of value in the coming 12 months. What do you want to direct your time and energy towards? You can take a moment to reflect on this question. My list looks something like this: Sleep Walk Human Design Hang out with my pets Seeing some new places Spend time with loved ones Write Drink tea Stretch Meditate I do not have to do everything on this list everyday but I would live to weave the intention of this list into the next year. That feels nice and relaxing. This is an experiment in healing. Happy New Year ALL.–
Another person cannot feel my pain and I do not know how they feel inside. I may have an intellectual understanding of “what they are going through” but I imagine it would fall short of their personal experience. We leave a lot up to the mind, to mental interpretation of how things are supposed to be. Kind of funny, if you think about it, you sit across from someone and you connect to them from your mind not really from your heart. The mind feels safer. This goes both ways of course, they can not understand me and I can not understand them. So how do we communicate? I think with a lot of room for interpretation and space built in, really, I do not know what is happening for them. Let me hold the space and see. I will never understand exactly but I can see them. I can surrender…
Sita Ram, Sita Ram, Sita Ram, Jaya Sita Ram सीता राम सीता राम सीता राम जय सीता राम Sita is the incarnation of Lakshmi, Goddess of abundance. She is the embodiment of love and virtue. Her husband Ram, is the incarnation of Vishnu, Lord of the universe. He was a living vessel of effused truth, compassion and bravery. Together they symbolize the union of the feminine and the masculine energies, the powerful partnership of intuition and action. Mantras are prayers, patterns of letters, words, sounds and breath, that consecrate intention into form. By chanting the songs repetitively, we evoke the sacred energies. We can use this tool to unify the separate sides of the self and to heal the violent divisions in our culture. The intertwined energies of Sita and Ram, balance the right and left sides of the human brain and regulate the parasympathetic and sympathetic aspects of our…
