Manifesting

Hopefully the third time is the charmer.  This is the third post I have tried.  The other two posts I was trying to get a photo on the page but it keeps locking up my computer so I guess you get the no frills version, until I can figure out what the deal is.
What has been coming up for me is about the tapestries we are weaving for our selves.  What we are manifesting in my/our lives.  What types of threads are we weaving, are they threads that no longer serve a purpose are they, new threads that we are weaving.  What are our new tapestries going to look like.
This morning I drew the Card Kan, from the Mayan Oracle by Spilsbury & Bryner.  It fits right into what has been presenting to me and others I have talked with.
"Receiving Kan indicates that now is an auspicious time to plant the seed of some intention, project, or dream.  The energy of Kan asks you to look at the issue of receptivitiy,for seeds germinate best in a field of responsive surrender.  What can you do to create the receptivity that will assist in the germination of your seed ideas?
Remember that all seeds are self-germinated and that the realization of any dream starts with a simple thought.  Don't get lost in the entire process of manifestation; just begin by seeding your heart's desire.  Feel the possibility of your dream seed emerging.  Your life is the receptive soil.  Plant a seed in that fertile field.  Begin.  The result will naturally blossom in the light of your willingness to start.
All seeds hold the holographic power of their own completion.  Kan represents the power that directs the vital processes of an organism toward wholeness.  Continue on this journey of manifestation by following your deepest feeling and dreams.
Shadow Wisdom
Are you a "sleeper" who wants to remain protected and seemingly invulnerable?  Are you unconsciously limiting yourself by supporting the illusion of safety and security in the apparent protection of you shell?  Be willing to break the constraining shells of self-concepts and life's structures.  Be freed of old patterns and beliefs that once provided safety, and move forward into new possiblilities.  Beyond the confines of security and the routine patterns of daily life, unknown possibilities beckon.
Look at how you may be limiting your natrual growth.  Don't wait for what seems to be the perfect conditions to plant your seeds.  Now is the season; cultivate your seeds.  You are the receptive soil, your desire will maturally draw its own support.  All your dreams and desires lie within you to be awakened.  The answer is inside, not outside.  Remember that seeds contain the complete hologram of the whole and that within the process of growth, answers and insights are always offered.  Plant your intentions; they will quicken, guide, and manifest the mysteries in your depths."

I know this is a very powerful message and hopefully will hit home for many.  Birth these new ideas.  Bring into life more light, more laughter.  We are all weaving a new web, how will you part weave into the fabric of  the New Earth.

Synchronicity

I find/feel like I am beginning a new phase in my life. I have to say that opening my door for synchronicity and getting out of my way so the very things that I have been wanting can come into my sphere.
As I was writing in my journal this morning about the new things that have come into my life this week and watching the beauty of how it all manifested I was struck my what I was writing then matched the card I drew and in turn matched what was on my calendar which is sayings by Eckhart Tolle' The New Earth and The Power of Now.

"Your entire life unfolds in this constant Now. Even past or future moments only exist when you remember or anticipate them, and you do so by thinking about them in the only moment there is; this one."

Living in the present moment is a skill we all could learn. I found that I future paced so much of my, I want to accomplish list, that I rarely and by fluke I would actually see something manifest. So I have gone through life with a sense of not getting alot accomplished. Thank heavens things are a changin. So I now present parts of the card I drew from the Mayan Oracle by Ariel Spilsbury & Michael Bryner.
Caban is the card.
"If you drew Caban, center your awareness within the core of self. Gifts are being made available to you directly from the Earth force. Center yourself in the present moment, and you will open the door to all knowledge, times and abilities. From there, you enter a space that enables you to see and act more clearly. Open the central channel of your being. Be sacramentally rooted where you are now, to receive the many gifts of the present moment.
Sit in relationship with the energies of the Earth, as a shaman would sit in a forest. Take time to listen to the information being transmitted through your feet. Walk into your life. Find and do what gives you joy. From this place of centeredness, magical happenings spring and synchronicity abounds, helping you to access clues to the cosmic puzzle.
In drawing Caban, you are being offered an awareness of synergy or synchronicities, are the sparkling points of illumination in the tapestry of magic. Watch for these seeming coincidences and strong feelings as clues to your larger purpose. Learn to observe and digest data and feelings until conclusions emerge naturally. Be alert to natural synergies developing with others of similar intent. Remember, you hold the Earth within you. You are the global family, the keeper of the Earth's garden."
"Shadow Wisdom..."
"In your everyday world, are you often focused on the past or the future? do you find it difficult to just be in the present moment? The larger pattern of you life is shaping itself now. All you need do is hold a clear intention to live and move more fully in the present. Your Essence Self knows the perfect timing and pattern of your unfoldment."

Self-Judgement

Judgement and Criticism according to Carolyn Myss Ph.D in her book Anatomy of a Spirit, Judgement and Criticism has to do with the 5th Chakra and the fifth Chakra is Throat, Thyroid, Trachea, Neck vertebrae, Mouth Teeth and gums, Esophogus, Parathyroid, Hypothalamus. "Energy connection to the emotional/mental body: The fifth chakra resonates to the numerous emotional and mental struggles involved in learning the nature of the power of choice. All illness has a connection to the fifth chara, because choice is involved in every detail of our lives and therefore in every illness."
I find this profound, I know it has been said many ways but I find this paragraph really answers a lot. I have to say I haven't read this book from front to cover but right here right now I will. Especially the fifth chakra chapter. At the end of the chapter she outlines 5 questions or maybe I should say five rules.
"The greatest act of will in whcih we can invest our spirtis is to choose to live according to these rules."
"1. Make no judgements
2. Have no expectations.
3. Give up the need to know why things happen as they do.
4. Trust that the unscheduled events of our lives are a from of spiritual direction.
5. Have the courage to make the choices we need to make, accept what we cannot change, and have the wisdome to know the difference."

We all tend to be our own worst enemy. Speaking for myself I find that I am constantly making judgements and criticisms of myself. So I am asking myself how in the world can that serve me? Do you do this to yourself? I am working on being a better friend to me. Making choices that better serve, not living life from fear.

The picture I have posted reminded me of the wisdom of the ancient tree and that new growth comes from that tree. Moss always reminds me of a soft pillow you could lay your head upon.

May your day be filled with wonderful choices. The choice to be all that you can be.

Where are we

Magenta seems to be showing up more in my life. Not sure if that is true for others.
Magenta - "Strengthens contact with your life purpose. Stimulates adrenaline and heart activity. Builds up the aura." From RealMagick website.
When I chose the picture to post for this time I wanted to bring the color magenta in. I also thought what else needs to go with this. So when I opened my Mayan Oracle book it presented Cauac. I am just taking the paragraphs that both of my thumbs were touching, and I have to say it truly fits. These are the questions and concerns I having playing in my life right now. It will be interesting to know if this applies in your life.
"I am Cauac(k'a wak)
Ask nothing less of me.
I am born of unity to claim its own!
How palpable is your trust in the pattern of perfection?
How powerful is your commitment to rebirth?
How real is your faith to pilgrimage into the realm of the unknown
To what would you cling in my fiery vortex?
After the hear of surrender, I will usher you
into the cooling waters
and the ecstasy of your true identity."

"Cauac prepares you to go through an apparently insurmountable wall, and the intense feelings around this "wall" provide the very fuel that will propel you through it. These feeling are the access to your hidden power and potential. Be purified by the cleansing rain and transmuting lightning of Cauac. Feel the embrace of the thunderbeings. Discover the freedom of the true adventurer, the freed "actor" who can play any part at any moment without attachment. Trust your Essence Self to bring this freedom to you. Through Cauac, allow yourself to become a master player in the great game."
Mayan Oracle by Ariel Spilsbury & Michael Bryner

So my prickly magenta flower really reflects these words. Is Magenta moving in your life?

Global Community

I am finding that I am doing each weeks post a little different, which that works. Tonight I just opened the Mayan Oracle book with my eyes closed and where ever my right thumb was touching would be the message. It is so interesting that it really is what is coming up for many. Where exactly do we fit into the global community, what is the part we are here to play. Because I think it important I will write the whole paragraph. Each must clear and find what really is important in this life we are leading. The paragraph is from the card call Men.
"Men reminds you to step powerfully into your commitment as a planetary server! Your assignment includes whatever furthers your personal evolution and the evolution of global mind. You are an awakener, a transformer, an empowered global visionary. In your vision, you have compassion for others, and your decisions are made in the light of global consciousness. Ask yourself how you might experience compassion toward self, the Earth, and others. Be guided toward types of work, relationships. places to live, and projects that will benefit the Earth and her creatures. Allow your spirit to expand. Soar on your spreading wings and planetary perspective. Affirm? "Through you, Gaia, I am also transformed! I am awakening as the return of divine love and light. We are all one, Gaia, as you awaken, I heal myself. As I awaken, you are healed, and together our petals open ecstatically to the new Sun of Flowers.""
I really must say here how much this is so right on for what I am experiencing right now. Hearing what kind of negative talk I give to myself, how often I forget what a powerful being I am, and what powerful beings we all are. How through these changes we become overwhelmed, but in that overwhelm we may have our biggest insights.
Be open to these changes welcome the opportunity.

New Awareness

I feel like we are all on the brink of a new awareness a new way of being. A new awakening. Looking down into a tree stump and seeing a fairyland you didn't even know existed. Even though our dreams seem to be eluding us its like we are being prepped for something bigger coming our way. We are all being given signs, signals and sensings and this awareness is effecting many. I decided this week that I would write more about happenings around me and not really read a card, but the Mayan Oracle book was laying on my desk and I picked it up and low and behold the very thoughts I have addressed here is also addressed by the page I turned to. Its about remembering who we are, our total wholeness of who we are. In order to support that in ourselves is to surround us with others who will let us fully express ourselves. As always be open to receive and amp up your light.
Reframe your internal dialogue.
I think we are opening the door to a huge adventure....be open, be aware, be light

IK (eek')

This weeks card is IK (eek'), its about Spirit, breath, wind, inspiration, presece, truth, co-creator of reality, simplicity, unseen forces, integration of polarities.
"Open to the breath of Spirit so that you can be guided and inspired! Awaken to the unseen that already infuses your experience! Amidst the seeming complexity, simply stop and breathe...simplify...slow down. Grasping and holding on will onlyu slow your growth process. Move in honesty and truth. Consider whether your choices drive from the movement of Spirit or from the sonstriction of unconscious beliefs and limiting definitions. Be as guileless and spontaneous as the wind. Move with the currents of change that are being offered. Embrace the unseen foreces that move to guide, inspire, and assitst you.
Your are being quickened. Remember that you and Spirit are co-creating your relaity. Be inspired. Know that your heart's dreams are animated by the presecne of the Divine Breath! Stop for a moment and feel this presence. Presence is the potent indwelling Spirit within you. Be open, aware, and present. By simply being, your true identity and presence emanate naturally.
In your present situation, allow yourself to be seen as you truly are. You are being asked to be aware of the polarities within you, to create a unified field of you full presence. There is tremendous power in wholeness. Open in this moment to vitalizing currents of Spiritus."

Mirrors that may be reflecting back to you are: "Doubting your connection to divintiy, issues of separation. Feelings of being locked into a prison of density and forgetfulness. Have you felt betrayed, abandoned, or separated without knowing why?" These are the things that we need to balance and release so that we can fulfill all that we are meant to be.
