MAY NEWSLETTER 2021
It is a joy to WELCOME All of you to my May musings.
These are transition times filled with every action, emotion, and response that human beings can conjure. Energies are high and intense, and change is inevitable. Yet some resist. Our access to information from every direction can be confounding and confusing at the best of times. Some people are calling this time an emergency and others say that the new age is emerging. What is your perception of what you read and hear about all the changes that are happening or are imminent?
A Course in Miracles says, “Perception’s basic law could thus be said, “You will rejoice at what you see because you see it to rejoice.” And while you think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see. Nothing is harmful or beneficent apart from what you wish. It is your wish that makes it what it is in its effects on you.” - Text, Ch 25, IV, The Light You Bring
Every day we are presented with myriad choices of what to think about our personal and political and community situation. I have a friend who is faced with a life threatening illness. When asked the inevitable, “How are You?”, my friend answers, “I am healing!” A choice of how to use precious Life Energy. I take in so much information, and I must listen ‘in’ for how I choose to think about and express my thoughts and opinions. ‘How can I facilitate balance here?’ is often an inner query. When there is confusion, I ask, "where is the guilt?" I seek to deepen into innocence, the essence of Being, at the core.
Fragmentation in our outer environment calls for congruence in our inner temple.
In the face of the intensification of energy, self-care is a life enhancing choice of how to use the energy. Throughout the day, I consciously connect my breath for 5 to 10 minutes, slowing down to express gratitude, or to do the Centring Process. I choose to listen to my friends’ and clients’ concerns about the world with an open heart, and I listen to my heart’s and my body’s response, then I verify as much as possible. I am so disturbed by misinformation, and take responsibility for what I take in and hold to be true.
Depth healing and the release of judgements leads to the inner ability to trust. Another time tested and honoured process for deepening your connection/relationship with yourself is mirror work. Take a moment first thing in the morning and last thing at night to say an audible, ‘I love you’ to YOU in the mirror. Each time you pass a mirror or reflection of yourself, give a nod of acknowledgement, ‘I’m here for you’. Discover the hundreds of small ways that are available in the day to give yourself praise and joy. I look up from my computer often to drink in the green of the garden and the cherry blossoms bursting now and the many different birds flying about. I am so blessed, and so are you. Love, Praise and Gratitude are the Ascension Attitudes. What are you seeking? That is what you will find.
I was interviewed by Samantha Briatico for the BIRTHING IN NEW EARTH podcast. This is a lively conversation with a woman who is creating a worldwide community.
I am reading and enjoying and highly recommend Rebecca Campbell’s new book LETTERS TO A STARSEED. The book is a commentary on the Soul’s Journey with clear and loving guidance. To me the Soul’s Journey is a Love Story, and Rebecca treats the subject with the respect and reverence that each Soul deserves. www.letterstoastarseed.com
