What's New

Happy Love day this month to everyone!! The Groundhog saw his shadow on February 2nd this past week! That means, according to the tradition, six more weeks of winter for us in the northern hemisphere. The Groundhog seeing his shadow is very symbolic to what has occurred/is occurring this week. What happens when you see your shadow? A whole bunch of stuff comes up for acceptance, transmutation and release. You must surrender and transmute. Do the work. If you resist, it is that much harder on you. Instead be conscious, be kind and ease out of this transitional period with grace and faith. Read below for the full energy write up.

THE ENERGIES THIS PAST WEEK
This past week was a tumultuous week for many of us. Mostly it was the energy. And sometimes we had experiences that backed up the weird energy we were feeling. My technical word for this energy is: ick! Just a lot of icky energy! :) The theme I've noticed from several of us are questioning the very people or thing we usually trust. Questioning our very survival with what we've already processed even. Shaking up your core beliefs a bit and making you question yourself. Basically, questioning our very connection to Source (to see this at a higher level). And also because of the strange energies our "buttons" are being pushed even more so than usually. It's okay as long as we learn to not react first but breathe and then come from a neutral place in our acceptance of the situation. It seems to be an upheaval of energy mixed with much of the same but what is being tested is our very faith in that which we are. The very core of our being is being tested to say, "Will you remain faithful in me even when some things on the outside are not totally what you expect or want? Will you remain trustworthy? Will you not react poorly or negatively to even the smallest challenges? Will you pick yourself up? Will you RISE ABOVE the rest? Can you live in the stillness within you during this upheaval?"

If you have been feeling this way or experiencing any of this, know that you are not alone. It is a test that we will get through. It is prudent to stay in your faith! To stay with your trust that if "God brought you to it, then he will bring you through it." To trust that everything is happening the way it is meant to for you. Stand strong! You can do this. You can do more than your mind tells you. Create a new edge in standing strong in the face of challenges. Everything is as it should be and have faith that the outcome is a beautiful and graceful for each of us. Flow now with grace through these strange energy patterns. We can stick together and shower love upon ourselves and those around us. How well can we reign in our immediate unnecessary reactions to the ick that comes our way? When something occurs, instead of reacting, step back and breathe. Breathe deeply. Then come to each situation from the witness state. Connect to the deeply peaceful stillness inside ourselves. Ask if there is anything that you can say or do in this very moment that will be of greater assistance to the highest good. If not, then let it go and be in the stillness you are connected to. If there is action that is to be taken, flow with grace with your action for the highest and best, good of all. RISE ABOVE the ick energy. Don't allow it to grab a hold of you and drown you in old ego patterns long released from your being. Take this challenge and show the Universe you are residing in your peace with grace and taking beautiful action when necessary. This wave will ride itself out and you will find yourself on the Other Side tremendously overtaken with joy that you faced this challenge and won by simply being who you are from within.

Things that will assist you in staying centered are: Always being consciously aware of what is happening within you and around you. This means the ego can't sneak in! Always take breathing breaks and if something challenges your emotions or ego, walk away and take several deep breaths before reacting. Meditate daily so you can get quiet and listen to the blissful stillness within you. Practice Yoga, Dancing, Tai Chi, Qi Gong and movements of any kind that rid residue and old energy from your body. Get outside. Even if it's cold out. Even just for a few minutes. Especially when you are in the thick of these wonky energies. The air refreshes and renews. The sun uplifts and cleanses. Nature feeds your prana; your life force.

Practice things that will remove the negative energy that is being brought to the surface (which, by the way, is eventually lifted right out and being transmuted). The ascension process is doing this for us right now. And we can assist by doing the above and move. Practice energy healing if you are a practitioner. Receive treatments from others. Listen to uplifting music. Take a shower to clear your physical body and aura. And one of the best things that has been working for me this week (along with all of the above) is SHAKING! That's right, I said shaking. This is a beautiful Qi Gong method that Kim Engh shared during a seminar I attended that removes residue and that ick energy from your body. She said during her awakening process she was doing this daily or several times a day. And I'm finding that I'm doing this every day this week and it's really helping me a lot. (See below for instructions!)

We will get through this energy flux and be more evolved because of it. Let's ride the waves and live in the flow of life. :) I feel the energy receding as I type this. We will have a little time to reflect before an amazing influx of energy – another opening – comes in during the spring equinox timeframe.

SHAKING
Start with Shaking your hand fast and furious. Then your hand and arm and then hand, upper arm and should. Then do the same on the other side. And move to your feet. Start with your left foot shaking vigorously. Then shake your foot, and knee. And then the whole leg. Move to the other side. Then bring your arms and legs and whole body into shaking up and down, slow at first and picking up the pace into almost jumping. Start shaking your head a bit too. Then get really into it and jump up and down, arms up high and shaking. Really let go. The Letting go is the most important part of this too. Let loose! Let it all go! Then stick your tongue way out and say, "Blaaaaah" to the air around you. Do this three time or however many times you want. Shake it, shake it, shake it! When you feel like you've really released and let go of a lot, stop. Observe your body. Stand straight and strong, arms and legs straight and activated in Mountain pose. Feel the beautiful numbness and tingling sensations in your body. Feel the aliveness that you are.

Yoga Pose for February (NEW)

Legs-Up-the-Wall
Sanskrit: Viparita Karani
Image courtesy of yogajournal.com

I chose to add one yoga pose a month to my newsletter to assist with energy peaks and valleys. This month a great pose to practice after your shaking exercise (above) is Legs-Up-the-Wall pose or Vaparita Karani. This pose is a restorative pose that is very relaxing for the mind and body. While your legs are invert they are receiving benefits of reversing gravity. This changing the blood flow direction and increases circulation in the legs. Your legs receive great healthy benefits. And this pose also relieves mild backache. The mental benefits are a reductions in stress and anxiety. The first week in February having been quite tumultuous, this pose is a great one for relieving that stress and any worries that may come up. Just relax and let it all go.

Directions on how to come into the pose:
Now, let’s come into Leg-up-the-wall pose or Viparita Karani. We will be utilizing the wall for this pose. And grab a couple blankets in case these are something you may want to utilize. If using a blanket place it up against the wall. Whether using the blanket or not, come up against the wall with your left hip up against the wall, either on the blanket or on the floor. Skooch your hip as close to the wall as possible, touching the wall. If you feel you are very tight in the legs you can still receive great benefits practicing this pose a few extra inches away from the wall. Do what feels right for you. Now, support yourself with your hands placing them behind you as your swing your legs up onto the wall and with care allowing your upper body, back, shoulders and head, to rest onto the floor, blanket or mat. Your hips should be nice and even against the wall or slightly away from the wall if that is your preference, but still parallel. Rest your arms out to the sides of your body, palms up. Close your eyes and relax. Allow your breathing to be natural and smooth. This is very calming pose that is great for reducing depression and anxiety. By coming into this inversion you are reversing gravity in the legs assisting in better circulation. Stay in this restorative pose for 5 to 15 minutes. To come out, slide your legs down or bend them down. Then roll over to one side and stay here for a few moments. Then come up to a seated position very slowly.

When not to do this pose or to modify/Contraindications:
Any eye, neck or back injury may be aggravated while doing this pose. For back and neck issues, take care and see if you can modify the pose in order to feel good. If you feel any stress or pain modify the position or come out of it completely. Always listen to the wisdom of your body.

The 2012 Shift
Galactic Alignment and Our Ascension

Although we can never really know at the highest level what is occurring during this major shift, I can tell you that we all are feeling a shift at some level. A part of us knows changes are coming. We can feel it deep within us. We are awakening now, not later. Maybe by a certain timeframe we will all be awakening or awakened. Maybe that timeframe is 2012 and maybe it is not. But some of us are already awakening or are already awakened and some are in the process of awakening and some are about to embark on the journey. We will all get there in our own beautiful time. However, it is also fascinating to note what is happening on a galactic level to Mother Earth right now. To best explain, here is an excerpt from Simone Matthews of Universal Life Tools, Waves of Love:

“On the solstice of 21 December 2012 (Summer Solstice in the Southern Hemisphere and Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere), our entire solar system will be in the Photon Band of Light, receiving direct energetic transmissions from Alcyone and from our Galactic Core of the Milky Way – The Waves of Love. “In addition, we are also coming to the end of the Grand Cycle of time, the end of another 225 million year cycle, 26,000 year cycle and 365 day cycle. Thus on this December solstice there is a grand alignment in our stellar skies of the Galactic Core of the Milky Way, with Alcyone, with our Sun and with Earth – marking the end of some significant cycles of time (or frequency’s of consciousness).

“The Greater Central Sun (Galactic Core) is directly pulsing electo-magnetic Wave of Love vibrations though our Central Sun (Alycone), through our Sun and into Earth…..bringing through very high pulsations or frequencies of light energy to Earth. “What this electo-magnetic energy is facilitating is a shift in consciousness, a divine shift of the level of awareness of humanity from an egoic 3D state of fear, to a consciousness …an 5D state of being.

"So how can you prepare for 2012 and the entrance into a 5th Dimensional existence? My advice is to slow down and begin to ‘feel’ again as spirit will provide us all with the answers. All too often we get caught up in such a physical existence of ‘hurriedness’ and ‘no-time’ that we have forgotten how to trust and allow. If we refuse to listen to spirit it is a kin to swimming up stream - life just gets harder and harder.” ~ Simone Matthews, UniversalLifeTools.com

The energies have been building for some time and I’m sure will continue to do so! It feels as if the awakening is happening now, not 2012. It feels that by 2012 a major shift will have already occurred because we are getting there now in order to be in a new energy space by that timeframe. It takes time to make that leap. it’s not an overnight process. It seems as if the shift is occurring more and more, and in more people than ever before. The time is only now.

I have been feeling that the shift truly *is* only within. That, possibly, for those that are called to shift the land are those by karma or free will choice that may be clearing something within *themselves* tied to the land. So therefore assisting themselves more to elevate their vibrations or consciousness to this new reality. I feel that whenever we are clearing (often called healing) someone else we are assisting them (selfless service/karma) and clearing more of ourselves and again raising our vibrations to that higher reality. This speaks to the ancient Hawaiian clearing method, Ho’oponopono. You can find out more about Ho’oponopono on my website under the articles section. I feel the only thing that truly changes *is* ourselves to the higher vibration. And Mother Earth is raising Her frequency as well. So as a collective we are planning to raise our vibrations along with the planet. As a collective it works as the land and ourselves are cleared together. Or at least I feel this way today!

We know the strongest vibration wins. When thinking of men versus woman in regards to strong vibration, we know most men think they are strong because they are men so tend to have overbearing energy. This is due to their own upbringing and conditions of years past. And we, as women, were also taught our energy is to be "meek" and "submissive" throughout the ages. We are coming back from these stereotypical beliefs one step at a time. So it's not about being forceful. It's about being in our peaceful vibration and keeping *that* vibration strong. Sometimes action speaks and sometimes stillness speaks. Whether action is speaking to you or stillness it is a call within that will tell you in every moment which one feels right. With either one, the stillness remains. It is our ever constant connection as the Divine recognized. Did I just rant on and get off the subject or did you follow that!? :)

So much to ponder! Do we have parallel lives to transmute as well? Do we just merge with our other parallel selves? Is this what 2012 is all about? Are we actually transmuting all our parallel selves into the one highest vibration, rather than shifting one of ourselves into another higher vibration? Each could be right possibilities depending upon who you are talking to. Several experts will say we are transmuting all "lower" selves into the one as a part of our clearing out. This rings true to me. However, these questions can’t really be answered with 100% authenticity yet. It’s an individual answer that you may come to one day and switch back the next. It is of my belief right now that we are all choosing to move into a higher dimension or reality as a collective with Mother Earth. This is what feels right to me.

You know, in yoga it is said that when you focus on one item or subject in study, contemplation and meditation you will eventually merge with it and become one with it. Thereby, all knowledge of that item or subject will be known by you. It speaks to taking your time and not allowing distractions from your focus but to breathe into it. This is something that you can practice when it comes to finding the truth of this subject. You will feel it and know it within your entire being. Not only that, you will see the Universe answering your questions with synchronicities, people and places that will pop up to answer your questions about such a subject. This is a good practice to implement here. We are all One with the Universe after all. So it makes sense that all knowing is within us for the taking.

We are all One. That bridge of conscious realization of the Self, the Self as One. I like what a friend of mine said to me about how she is simply doing what feels good and following that guidance system. Following ones truth is at the core of our essence and what feels good is our core. What feels good to me is practicing feeling the energy within daily or several times a day and sometimes that happens when we study a subject such as this (becoming one with a subject and merging with it for the truth of it to emerge from that Oneness) and other times actually practicing the art of healing the self, others and the land. I know every time I've done a clearing of the land or body it feels wonderful and we do come away feeling lighter and freer; a higher resonance to our Source energy. Even more connected to what we truly are. Amazing!

It seems that we are having a collective experience with Mother Earth in order to (or rather the conclusion naturally being to) ascend to a new vibration. Like we are always evolving and expanding and contracting and expanding. As she ascends so do we, as we ascend so does she. A natural progression. Of course I won't know 100% for sure till I "get there". And really we never get anywhere, as we are already there. We are already one and just need to remove the blinders and blockages to see that. Become aware of it...a natural shift in “reality”.

And so with my soon-to-be-published book and matching workshop Divine Embrace^TM (yes I swear it's getting closer now!) it is my hope that you receive the Energy Awakening process that works best for you. Divine Embrace can assist you with the Ascension that is occurring for all of humanity to raise our vibrations and connect more fully. (Exercises are found in the book to assist you.) You can connect and open up more fully to the person that you already are.

It is a heart connection; a melding of one and all together. In this you raise your vibrations powerfully with the conscious decision to open up. You connect more clearly to All That Is. A very powerful connection. It is called Divine Embrace because you are embracing the Divine. Since you *are* the Divine, you are embracing and opening up to the Divine in you! We ignite that fire and watch each other soar!

Enjoy, live, laugh and love always!

Peace and Bliss be with you ,

Favorite Books, photos and/or Videos of the Month:
I've embraced video land and had to face facts that most of my time is spend on you tube and watching little video clips online. So with that said, I must include a favorite video from time to time sometimes in place of books. Enjoy!

Ascension: Connecting with the Immortal Masters and Beings of Light
by Susan Shumsky, D.D.
This book was a pleasure to read and exactly the book to bring into your awareness the ancient knowledge you need to know in order to break free of your limitations and achieve the ultimate supreme state also known as, Brahman. It was such an easy read, filled with information that came through so clearly! Read about divine beings and practical how to's that allow you to flow through your very own ascension process.

Video: Shifting Reality
This came from a "reality shifters" group I am in. A woman explains to Bashar her experience with a reality shift or shift in vibrational consciousness to a new reality. This fits nicely with this month's article above. Excellent to make you sit back and ponder!!!
