Light and Shadow

Living in light and shadow.  I think we are much like this picture that we have parts of our life the are like the light, we see it and we are conscious of it and we for the most part can deal with what it is.  The other part of us is the shadow, the unconscious the part of ourselves we can't quite identify, we know something is there but not what it is specifically.  The work that I do with Energy Kinesiology is much about finding this shadow self, this part of ourselves that is on a subconscious level but motivates much what we do.  I liken to reweaving our life tapestry.  The beauty of this work is that one can go into the Central Nervous System and remove a block that stress in ones life has created.  It then opens the door to a new pathway/pattern.  The Chinese really knew what they were doing when they discovered the acupressure system, that makes it possible just by holding meridian points to bring a body back into balance.  The balance of Yin/Yang.  It is my wish that everyone has an opportunity to experience this modality.  It is so gentle, you don't have to take your clothes off, just your shoes.  How easy is that.  You just lay on the Massage Table and I do all the work.  It really sets you free when you can bring what is in shadow into the light.

Reflecting

I see so many images in this photograph.  It gives me a sense of relecting into the many meanings we may find in our lives.  It has been a long time since I posted on the blog.  Like the ripples in the water, the ripples of change seems to be taking place in my life.  We all seem to be making changes, can you sense it...transitions, not longer accepting things that we use to. 
I had my first real massage the other day, yes, I know how strange for someone that has been in Alternative approaches to health but it's true.  It was interesting because we don't always realize how much tension and stress our bodies are holding.  I know from the view I have with people that I have as clients as a Energy Kinesiologist.  I was surprised at how many blockages that my Massage Therapist found.  None of us are exempt to holding the stress.  It was a good lesson and experience, even though I thought I was dealing with things just fine.  It illustrated to me of how important it is to take care of yourself.  Go to your Energy Kinesiologist or Massage Therapist regularly just for tune ups that your body needs.  Your body is your receptor of all things in your environment, it needs to be taken care of. 
So many of us get so busy with our lives that we forget about the most important thing, taking care of self.  We take care of ourselves and our body will take care of us.  Be healthy on all levels....physical, mental, spiritual. 
Breath life into everyday.  It reminds me of a saying...to me it has much humor, have no idea who wrote it, but here it is.....
"Powerful Women's Motto:
Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders and says...." Oh sh--she's awake!!!
Have a beautiful day!

Blessings

Sometimes this time of year it is hard to slow down enough to see what nature is showing us.  I have been on the go all week and decided that today was going to be the quiet day at home.  Slow down take a breath.  It is going well.  What I have been shown today is we have a family of Pheasants in our yard along with our several dozen Quail.  Our yard is so full of bird life that it feels like are whole yard is in movement.  My husband can't keep the bird bath water full.

As I was finishing with the Christmas decorating I noticed that my huge Jade Plant is in bloom.  I had no idea that Jade plants flowered even.

So many blessings have been visited to me.  I went to a lecture on Thursday and saw several people that I hadn't seen in years.  It made me realize how much I missed meeting with people from many walks of life but all have the common goal of expanding our awareness...our consciousness.  I had forgotten how wonderful group energy can be and how life is really kinetic and if we are not interacting with life then we are just going through the motions.  If we talk of the global community and want to contribute, we need to be engaged with that community.  I have spent too many years in isolation so to speak.  I have froze in movement, no moving forward in a physical way, emotionally, mentally.  I think I really devalued how much I need the engagement with others, I will be changing how I do things.
I haven't drawn a card for the blog or a bit so I thought with all that has opened to my awareness I wonder what a card would bring.  I drew the card CIMI...CIMI is about forgiveness and surrender in order to have a transition.  Its about pruning away old growth, clearing away the things that no longer serve you.  Move into life.  "Through awareness and clear intention, old patterns can magically shift, offering you a loving hand that shows a new way."  What a blessing, what a gift.  What is your world showing you.  Is it showing you the areas of your life that need change?  Is it showing you the parts of your life that needs forgiveness, either for yourself or other?
Its time to reweave your life tapestries, weave them with more like, weave them with new intention, weave them with love.

Time for change is now in this moment.....

Thanks--Giving

So how have we chosen to give our thanks for the wonders that we have in our world.  As I have been driving from point A to point B gathering items for our feast, I looked out over our valley and looked to the sky, to acknowledge what a beautiful place we live in.  I give thank for that.  When I drew the card for this post I asked what do we need to know on this day of Thanks--Giving.  I drew the card Eb, from the Mayan Oracle...of course what it has to say is perfect for this day of Thanks--Giving.
"Now is a time for celebration!  With Eb, you have received the cosmic cornucopia of abundance, the grail for which you have yearned.  Open as the receptive chalice.  Lift you empty cup, that it might be filled and quickended with expanded consciousness.  Your circuits are being prepared for transformation through the activation of the gifts of Spirit.
These precious and often subtle gifts may be overlooked in your busyness.  Slow down.  Be receptive, freed from expectation.  Even if this is a difficult time, open your heart to receive.  Sweep clear your schedule and your mind.  Ready yourself to be penetrated and quickened with this vortex of empowerment.  Through the fruits offered by this star-glyph, you are being activated, cleared, and tuned to become a fully potentiated human being.  You are a chalice, an open vessel to recieve the unlimited resonance of the expanded self.  Embrace the mystery that the chalice of your human form is actually the chalice of the spiraling galaxies!
Shadow Wisdom
Do you see your cup as bieng half empty instead of being half full?  Do you feel a lack of love, support, or money?  If so, you may be experiencing shadow of Eb.  These issues of self-limitation are arising from your past to be healed.  Herein lies the key to the cornucopia.  Are you projecting responsibility for your own feeling or lack onto someone else?  No one else can fill your cup.  Be self-nurturing.  Discover what gives you joy and fulfillment.  Be receptive and decide what you can do to fill your own cup.  Then the universe will naturally fill you with your heart's desire.
Another shadow of Eb is either over- or undervaluing your intellect.  Eb asks you to befriend your mind.  Old negative patterns such as confusion and anxiety of "trying to figure it out" may be surfacing at this time.  Working with Eb can transform the very circuits of your brain.  In meditation, allow a feeling, metaphor, or image to surface in order to assist in rewiring these fixed mental patterns.  Be open to what is presented, and bring it itnto action in your life.  Embrace the magnificence of your mind and natural design.  Be empty and aware, that you might be filled with limitless abundance and light.
Do you evaluate and judge yourself as not being all that you could be?  Lovingly understand your humanness, rather than attempting to transcend the body-mind and its emotions, pains, and problems.  Quicken and align your senses with a more mythical intent.  Honor your body as a sacred chalice of Essence Self."

Chicchan for the second time....Pay Attention

I have put the whole Magical Child Poem from the Mayan Oracle because this card came up for the second time, so this says to me that we need to understand more and we NEED TO PAY ATTENTION, what is going on in our world.  Are we seeing the powerful beings that we are, if not, it may be time to look.


I am Chicchan,
   molten magma of pure life force,
   vibrant, vermillion flame of awakening and purification.
I am the heat, power, and vitality of crative essence.
I am instinctual wisdom.
I sense solutions and secrets
   within the belly of your being.
I am the flame of pure purpose galvanized within you!
I am the promise of awakening
   and the luminous lotus,
   crown of illumination.
I am the sacred fire of the serpent's dance
   lying coiled within you,
   until stirred to wakefulness
   in lightning quickness or serpentine grace.

My sacred river will ignite
   your whirling wheels of spendor,
   setting them spinning into the dance
   of their own divine timing.
As I dance with you,
I gently light the pathway of your natural unfoldment.

Fulfill your desire for sacramental intimacy
   and transcendent union
   in the divine dance with the Eternal Beloved.
When summoned in love,
I am the flint and tinder of the sacred fire,
   the potent energy that unifies
   the instinctual passion of beings
   with their divine nature.
It is I who provide the serpent feathers
   with which to make wings.

Open to your enlivened passion!
I am the scred serpent,
   and it is my effulgent light
   flowing vitally through your being
   that initiates you into the sacred chamber
   wherein abides the crown of purest love,
   awaiting, like a silken lotus, to adorn you.

Motivation, Desire, Creativity

I know I haven’t written on my blog for a bit, so I thought today is the perfect day, this is the perfect moment. Just do it!


The card I drew from the Mayan Oracle is Chicchan, of course the words are so perfect, everything that has taken place in the last week or so. It also goes along with what we saw in our visions for each other on 11-11-11. Also what we put into the fire.

“Chicchan’s qualities are: passion, sensing, body wisdom, motivation, desire, instinct, creativity, serpent, kundalini, integration, purification, intimacy.”

“Chicchan is the vital life force that encourages you to act intuitively in the moment! Follow your gut-level instincts and intuition. Sense the solutions to your concerns. What do you instinctively sense about your current situation? What motivates your choices? Listen to the temple of wisdom in your body. Allow it to integrate all levels of your being. Create a relationship with your body that will free you of the entrapments of past patterns.

The vital fire of purification can serve your clearing process at this time. Chicchan’s instinctual transformation is available to ignite and purify your body. Listen to the teachings and insights of the energy of each chakra. Utilize your passion in the tangible expression of your creativity. Bring your entire being into attunement with your sacred fire.

Be willing to look at issues you have concerning intimacy and sexuality. Make sure that you are not separated from the dance of passion that is in union with your divine nature. Sense your deeper desire for union and intimacy. Chicchan calls on you to awaken your vitality, body wisdom, and passion for life.”

Chicchan reminds me of the Red Orange Fire of a tree in the fall.

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.
