Your Lost Fear

Love is in everything. It is available everywhere; desirous of being expressed everywhere through every one and every thing.

Even where Love apparently is not yet there, it is waiting its opportunity to express its radiance.

Hatred is not the opposite of Love; Fear is. Before hate, Fear exists. Before doubt, vengeance, mistrust and any other paralyzing emotion, first there is Fear – holding you in its imprisoning energy.

Does Fear paralyze you?

If it can hold you in its fear-full state, it will.

So long as you stay full of mistrust, for example, you cannot move forward from that trust-less state to loving yourself to taking the risk of trusting again; therefore Fear has paralyzed you into its only emotional state. And Fear too paralyzes itself. Any emotion you feel that has Fear at its base is Fear holding you as it holds itself.

The sad thing is that Fear has become lost in its mission.

Fear’s only mission has been to keep you from harm by warning you of the potential dangers that lie ahead. However, Fear has become so dedicated to protecting you that – rather than simply warning you – because you have the tendency to say to your Fear, “I choose the danger” —Fear now takes your choice away and holds you “safe.”

Fear forgets that you are here to experience – to make foolish choices and reckless choices in order to become wise in your choice-making; in order to grow and mature.

When Fear becomes arrogant, joining forces with your mind and whirling you around and around within itself, it is time for you to take command.

Decisively say to your Fear: ‘I am not playing this game with you any longer. Go! and find someone else to play with—you are dismissed.’

If Fear, in trying to maintain its hold on you resists leaving, call in the God of Your Understanding and Fear is thereby compelled to leave.

Love your Fear; hold it close and thank it for its warnings. Like the old friend it wants to be, encourage it to rest between tasks and, above all, remind it that this is your Life and you intend to live it to the fullest.

A Unicorn Dream

I have on my wall over my desk a print of the head of a baby unicorn with flowers and leaves beside him.

A gentle breeze lifts part of his mane. The soft down on his face and the short horn [only four ridges long and I have the impression he was born with three tiny ridges on the horn] let me know he is very young.

The calmness of his eye adds to the peace-fullness of his face and I just know that he lives in a place of pale golden serenity—like the pale gold ink with which he was drawn.

Sometimes his presence is so real I am tempted to greet him or more importantly to walk into where he is but I know that cannot be. I do not yet have that deep, all-encompassing, heart-filled Peace of which he has been created. Until I am full of that Peace to the depths of my Soul, I would only bring disturbance with me.

So I will life up my gaze to his portrait, knowing he is there patiently encouraging my progress toward him. We both take heart in knowing I will one day be there.

A dream—perhaps. But a Neptune dream, full of illusion and the potential to become real enough to the Heart that the Essence lives.

And that is what matters in the end.

Healing – When Its On and On…

Healing keeps on happening.

Release discouragement from your Heart; when on a healing path you notice that this imbalance seems to hold on in a similar fashion until you think it’s just one thing after another.

And that is true—you are correct—many of you have chosen very complex and inter-locking [interesting word] manifestations of illness. Dealing with one [set of] symptom[s] doesn’t seem to heal the situation. And that truth leads you to the awareness that there is still more for you to learn from this creation of yours.

Therefore, from a new perspective, the questions for your symptoms once again are: “What are you trying to tell me?” and “What do you need me to do in order for you to leave my life?”

In the case of each separate manifestation of the illness or variations thereof, there will be a different answer but the basic answer that makes you receptive to complete healing is to love yourself as the Beloved Divine love you—without condition and without lessening in any way.

With that as your daily—even momentary—practise, you can only succeed in any of your tasks in Life. When something is out of balance or causes hurt, the response must be forgiveness and greater Love.

Whatever you have done or not done, there is no failure—there is only the making of a choice. That choice may be directed by the body, by the distracted mind or by the awareness of and acceptance of the directives of Spirit.

Each response brings you exactly to the perfect place where your learning can continue. You and your body may do well with learning how to support each other in healthy and positive ways.

Mind and you can come together in gaining focus on what You [rather than your mind] choose as important to your wisdom and knowledge. Remember, you are not your mind— you are a Spiritual Being having a human experience. Ever and always strive to live in the present moment.

Each day on arising you are encouraged to invite your Spirit fully into the body right down to the soles of the feet and to stay there present moment by present moment for the rest of the day. So too, invite the wholeness of your body to come into present time to enjoy Life with you moment by moment in the Now.

Remember…

I Am who I AM and everything that I attract to myself is for my Highest Evolution.

Pax vobiscum… Peace be with you

Let There Be…

Let there be Joy for it is the Radiant Sunshine that brings upliftment to your day

Let there be Serenity for it is the soothing Twilight that brings completion to your day

Let there be Healing for it is the Change Agent in Life bringing Bright Blessings to you

Let there be Friendship for it is the means to a supportive 360-degree view of who you are and who you are becoming

Let there be Prayer for it is the Highest form of Divine Communication when requests are made, listening happens and Life becomes well-lived.

At Ascendant Books…

As some of you know, I do Clairvoyant/Clairaudient readings at Ascendant Books and, of course, some days are busier than others. On a recent quiet afternoon, this was my experience…

 

From my table…

As I gaze out the windows of the bookstore, I notice the many shapes and colours – chimes hanging in their quiet formal way – waiting for someone to ring out their gladdening sound; translucent shells cascade in flower-like stillness echoing the serenity of the space.

Delicate star shapes, bits of colour from glass flowers, suns, butterflies – all add to the iridescence of the glow. The beautiful wind-coloured lantern reminds me of a hot air balloon untethered and free to carry me to where my dreams are born.

As I gaze out through the window, trees abound sharing the calmness of their deeply rooted selves. Do they still whisper amongst themselves? – sometimes it seems to.

Richly green and radiant in the sunshine or thoughtfully dreaming on a dozy, drizzly day, they fill my heart with Faith – as the Angels so often tell us: “All is well,” and the trees affirm it.

Song and Music for Joy

We are The Hyacinths who feed thy Soul…

Let us speak of song, of music and of the celebration that it is intended to bring to your day. Music and the word/song accompanying it are a highly creative modality. Music heals and it can also kill.

 

Your body knows that music weakens or strengthens you. For example, Beethoven’s “Ode to Joy” written when he could no longer hear the noisy world around him – always strengthens you as does all of The Beatles’ music. 

 

The Universe was created using sound – you know of the music, therefore, of the Spheres and that “In the Beginning was the Word…and God spoke…”

 

Be full of care of the words you put into your mind. The Great Invocation blesses saying, “From the Point of Light within the Mind of God let Light [Life] stream forth into the minds of men…”

That Light is Life-giving, Life-enhancing.

 

As you work now on bringing your Light body more fully into integration with your physical body, you unify the two and allow them to become one. This action is always accompanied by the sounds of Angelic song and joyous laughter which is vital Life Force for the Unity that comes of this joining.

 

Sing … come sing a Song of Joy for Love and Understanding.

 

Then together we shall be complete…

We are The Hyacinths…

We are  Hyacinths that feed thy Soul.

When you invite us moment by moment and segment by segment to bloom in your hearts and fulfill they Soul’s desire together we bring the Peace of Light-Love-Life to its fullest experience. All Life Everywhere can, through its gifts – open you to a clearer, Brighter Presence as you wish – and only as you wish.

Whatsoever you wish, will or choose shall be yours. And you may know your wishes, your sill’s power and your most focused choices by your results.

Not pleased with your results? Change your focus, resist not your Heart’s guidance impulsive though it may seem, reset your will’s focus and observe your new results.

Remember action followed by quiet observation brings contentment, satisfaction and calm understanding.

We are complete.

Love and Faith

Love is All That Is – there is nothing else. If you see war, hate, destruction, anger and unhappiness, you are seeing illusions. Neptune in Pisces will show you all your illusions and disillusions in order to create a great and empowered or initiating realization of Faith.

And what you choose to have Faith in will be yours.

Love is the intention of Faith.

Yet make nothing bad or you will want it more – just know that it is what it is – and then have freedom in your choice.

Each day in my meditation, the Archangel Michael bends on one knee beside me so I may lean on his knee and feel more cared for and closer to him without feeling overwhelmed in awe of his presence. I still am full of awe, love and gratitude for his being with me. I feel his protection and his deep concern for me but also his guidance in all areas of my life and… I know he wants me to laugh more!

Thank you, Beloved Friend, for your love and your presence.

Hyacinths and Soul

“If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft

And from thy slender store

Two loaves alone to thee are left,

Sell one …

And with the dole

Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.”*

 

* Sa’adi [Sheikh Muslih-uddin Sa’adi]

~ 12^th Century Persian Poet

Remember, though, whenever you are involved with Soul that effort is involved. Just as hyacinths require attention, so too does Soul involvement.

 

Hyacinths need to be staked up since their beautiful blossom-filled heads can, literally, become so heavy they pull the plant out of the ground. It is a recommendation that each morning, we call our Spirit back into our bodies fully down to our feet; that is, down to the ground, to being grounded.

 

Soul has its need in our lives, asking us to participate with it in the creation of a more spiritually-active person. Part of doing this means spending time in that marvellously loving energy whether through meditation, inner spiritual work or asking our angels and guides for information on the Highest Best response to the situations in our lives. While Soul is fully aware of our being incarnated, its goal for our advancement does not necessarily take into account our goals in the physical realm.

 

Like shoring up a hyacinth with a stake to prevent its coming out of balance, so we must ensure balance between our spiritual and physical experiences. While it can be appropriate – even comforting-to lean on the Soul, we are the ones who are growing in this life.

 

Hyacinths require attention to ensure they are in ground that is moist enough to transmit nutrients from the soil into the plant. It takes effort on the part of the caretaker of the plant as well as effort on the part of the plant itself to develop the best environmental state.

 

So too with the Soul. It takes effort on the part of the caretaker – you and me – to create a welcoming, productive environment in which our relationship with Soul can learn, grow and become all that we can be. It takes effort on the part of Soul to encourage us to participate in the Soul’s agenda for our evolvement.

 

While together we are greater by far than we are singly, there may be times when the confusion and uncertainty as to whether or how Soul will nourish us can ground us so thoroughly in the “I’m not moving until I know where I’m going and why and how it will benefit me” syndrome that – like the hyacinth in its moist ground – we run the risk of becoming “sticks-in-the-mud!”

 

Neptune is in Pisces, its own sign, where it will stay until 2043 [except for a brief period]. This is a very Soul-searching period of time; that is, a time when we are on search for our Soul and its action and meaning in our lives. Neptune’s journey in Pisces is to teach all of us Faith. And some of us will insist on all the tasks where Faith seems to be absent and/or illogical as a means of learning about Faith.

 

This can be an amazingly inspiring journey, if we use the hyacinths – the unexpected and dream-like moments of breath-taking beauty – to remind us and uplift us into that gentle state where Faith is the background music and Trust is always rewarded.

 

2012: Tarot of Ascension…

I bought a new Tarot deck yesterday. Now that is not necessarily an unusual thing since I collect them and teach with them. Yesterday, I broke my cardinal rule in purchasing new decks: always check out the significant cards – such as the Devil and the Death cards, the High Priestess, the Moon and my personal card, the Ace of Swords. I bought the deck based on the name: “2012: Tarot of Ascension.” The cards I did review seemed rather dark but I know many people are experiencing trepidation, fear and at best, uncertainty about that year. The darkness of the deck certainly seemed to be reflecting that apprehension.

Now, however, that I have had the opportunity to look over, handle and try to establish a rapport with the deck, I am disappointed. The only card I appreciate in the entire deck is the Ace of Swords and that because the Blue Light Sword of the Archangel Michael is so clearly shown on the card. Archangel Michael’s offers Protection through the healing and brightness of Spirit that is emblematic of his Sword, bring hope and security in its image. Since the Ace of Swords in my experience is the second most positive card in a Tarot deck [but not this deck] because it is interpreted as success, achievement and accomplishment of a very high order, I was relieved to see this image.

2012 is, yes, the end of the world as we presently know it – so that a newer, better, brighter, more loving world can come into existence in its place. This is a time to face our unfinished tasks, get them completed and look forward to Life becoming a place of manifesting our most beloved Dreams.
