Celebrating the Earth – Is the Spring here?

“Is the spring coming?” he said. “What is it like?”…
“It is the sun shining on the rain and the rain falling on the sunshine…”
― Frances Hodgson Burnett, The Secret Garden

MY DAY: Is Spring here? I am not sure. Crisp clear cold air, without the expected golden sunshine above – but the delightful daffodils show their beautiful faces regardless. Followed by rain, wind and more cloud.

MY WORD: Time for an ‘Adventure!’

SOUL COLOUR: I see swirls of Green and yellow…

HOW I FEEL:

“Pay the thunder no mind – listen to the birds.”
Ready for the new! To shift, to move, to experience, to change, to be fully accepting. To grow, to allow, to trust to surrender, to dance!

BODY FEELS: Healing, resting, restoring, stronger and alive!

MY INSIGHTS:

“If the world were merely seductive, that would be easy. If it were merely challenging, that would be no problem. But I arise in the morning torn between a desire to improve the world and a desire to enjoy the world. This makes it hard to plan the day.”

E.B White

We are activating codes from deep within our hearts to assist our evolution to soar! We are transforming ourselves on every possible level.

THE COLLECTIVE: Nourish the body, get sufficient sleep, exercise, meditate, study, spend time in nature, contemplate and reflect more. Pay careful attention to your thoughts and spoken words…live.

Expose yourself to great art. Be creative. Help others. Aspire to worthy things, be gracious and kind, appreciate Nature, the Earth and All That Is…Allow your wisdom to shine through, have loving healthy thoughts and ideas…

“And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed
and every morning revealed new miracles.”
Frances Hodgson Burnett

Standing At The Crossroads…

who then are you?
and who am I?
if not more than stars,
and something less than snowflakes…

the breath of a God,
who chooses to be unnamed.
the croak of a frog,
the moan of a dying branch…
eric

TODAY: Yesterday began cold, dark and wet. The rain falling gently. The town was silent, yet there was a profound stillness here…today is mild and brighter…

I lit my candles, said a prayer of thanks and offered up blessings to the world. My heart swelled with emotion…

I felt deep gratitude and reverence. There is a warm cosy radiance in the house…

IN ONE WORD: Gratitude

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Turquoise

HOW I FEEL: Many of you know that this year thus far, has been a physically challenging one for me. In mid January I will be going back into hospital for ‘explorative’ heart surgery.
Besides dealing with often intense energies here in Glastonbury, and managing my own health issues, I have still felt divinely guided and supported by the ‘unseen’, as well as by a few dear friends.
I was also led to continue creating more Colour Matrix Essences, and in the past few months have given time and energy supporting those who feel that they have ‘lost their way…’

I see 2016 coming in with a lighter energy, yet also feel that there will be more unexpected ‘happenings’ which may shock and surprise many.

PHYSICALLY:

“The physical body knows its own silence — that is its own well-being, its own overflowing health, its own joy. The mind also knows its silence, when all thoughts disappear and the sky is without any clouds, just a pure space…” Osho

INSIGHTS: ‘As you step solidly into this new phase of life, I ask you to leap over the threshold of the Gate before you. Leaving behind much of the old, whether this be a negative thought form, hasty action, or disillusioned mood…You are ready to move towards new friends, different places, people and positive right actions. You will soon feel lighter, freer, happier in your heart and mind, and this will filter down through all the layers of your ‘beingness’, to your newly re-structured DNA.’ Ashtara

‘standing at a crossroads…’
These words keep coming to mind. I suddenly remembered that in one of my channelled messages, a few years ago, it mentioned the true beginning of the ‘new’ would begin from 2017 onwards (not 2012)…and that for me, is feeling more real and true as each day passes…I have read reliable confirmations of that recently…

THE COLLECTIVE: The function of the mind is again to be a bridge between you and the objective world, and the function of the heart is to be a bridge between you and yourself. The silence that I have been talking about is the silence of the heart. Osho

Many people I know, are spending a very quiet, even alone Christmas this year. That seems to be the case more and more. Is there less ‘goodwill towards all men’, and more isolation? As more of us shift and turn and change and awaken…almost living a life straddling 2 worlds…which at times is unsettling and even lonely, especially the younger generation.

Years ago if there was someone who would be alone at Christmas, they would be invited or included at a Christmas lunch with someone. That’s how it was in communities and neighbourhoods I grew up in. But, today there is less traditional celebrations as times change and we move away from that well worn path…

‘As of we come to the final days of 2015 we are paused at an intersection, an inter-dimensional crossroads. We each stand at the entrance to ourselves, holding our breath, waiting for life to show us you what to think, how to walk, who to love, what to pray for…’

AFFIRMATION: “I am divinely protected and loved always…”

The Dream of the World…

“Each truth you learn will be, for you, as new as if it had never been written…”

Ancient Egyptian proverb

TODAY:
Severe dark wet days have been with us in the SW of England, for what feels like forever…Its grey, wet, with strong cold wintery winds…that at times, have felt energetically draining too.

IN ONE WORD: Grace

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Silver

HOW I FEEL:

She had stars behind each eyelid,
A galaxy in her soul,
That drew people to her endless heart,
She was made of earth and fire,
Of wishes cast on shooting stars…

Yes, I accept that I am still very fragile…should I be? I don’t know? But of course the whole of last week was extremely busy for me. Getting ready to teach (Colour Therapy) for 4 days, which required preparation on may levels. Looking for notes, sorting out printed pages, throwing away, tidying and arranging as I went…Pouring bottles, arranging, unpacking and finally – ‘me time’ to prepare myself.

It went very well and now its over. I am grateful and satisfied. Here I am with my feet up and a cup of hot tea beside me…

“I’ve learned that I still have a lot to learn.

I’ve learned that people will forget what you said,

people will forget what you did,

but people will never forget how you made them feel.”

Maya Angelo

PHYSICALLY: I have been forced to take one day at a time, since having a mild heart attack in October. Resting, pensive, yet lively thoughts and ideas fill my mind…
But, each body has received many mixed signals lately, with many conflicting truths. Are our bodies in overload?! Mine seems to be taking on a life of its own. Yes, I do believe that all of humanity is in overload. Especially physically and emotionally.

INSIGHTS:

“We are being challenged to step outside of our comfort zones,

forced to reassess and re-examine cherished and long held beliefs”

Sue Vincent

I get a strong feeling that its time of run all to help create a new world – for all of us to move into. We have each changed so much! Yes, in different ways, but we are not the same people we were last year this time. Are we? I know I am not!

We have been inching towards the doorway to that ‘next world’ for so long, that some of us want to give up. Stop I say! Lets do this together, because we can! We have had to re-think what we knew to be true, and we have to learn new ways to live in this rapidly shifting world.

THE COLLECTIVE:

‘The reason why most of us wear out, or give up –

is because they don’t know how to transform the beautiful things around them

into energy and enthusiasm.’

Ashtara

Do not despair, question too deeply, or attempt to understand ALL that happens, and as it unfolds in your own life, or to those around you. Take your time to rest, to think clearly, to breath! Let body, mind and emotions constantly re-balance. Then allow these world changes and the many earth changes, to be what they need to be, knowing that changes are happening in each and every moment. Much like a run-away train…And it may well confuse us and frighten us, yet at the same time, new ways of being are appearing in tandem.

“Between the lines we are being energetically whacked with numerous changes, as the winds of energy move through us.”

Dr. Meg

“We are only playing parts or acting roles in the dream of the world.”

Mark Cloudfoot

Solstice Blessings…

“Let me be still amid the beauty of Earth.

Let me be a silent admirer of all that is sacred.

Let me be reverent in the presence of another.

Let me restore my inner eye.

Let me put to rest the wildness of endless activity.

Let me end my seeking the glitter of streets that go nowhere.”

Solstice – June 20th/21st

In the northern hemisphere this is the Summer Solstice – in the southern the winter. It is a mid-point transformation and a favorite of many Lightworkers and Starseeds.

Solstice means “stand still of the sun”. The sun rises and sets at the same place on the horizon for three days….appearing to “stand still”.

The three-day Solstice window is powerful and always individual. With the other planetary alignments, this Solstice will move us into new energies and directions. Be open and receptive to real change.

It is important to remember as we walk this energy of June into July, we as a collective are in the midst of an unprecedented shift in consciousness about our beloved Mother Earth. Our frequency and vibration is accelerating at light speed, effecting every minute living cell with our body and every living thing upon our planet…

“Love all the Earth, every ray of light,

every grain of sand or blade of grass,

every living thing.

If you love the Earth enough, you will know the Divine Mystery.”

Dostoevsky

Destiny Brought You Here…

“Take me to the places that teach you how to dance,

 the places where you can risk breaking your heart… 

And I will take you to the places where the earth 

beneath my feet and the stars overhead

make my  heart whole again and again 

Oriah Mountain Dreamer

TODAY:

“And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed
and every morning revealed new miracles.”

Frances Hodgson Burnett

Crisp clear air, golden sunshine above, with delicious warmth and a truly glorious Summery feel!

IN ONE WORD: Exuberance

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Gold

HOW I FEEL:

“Your body cannot heal without play.

Your mind cannot heal without laughter.

Your soul cannot heal without joy.”

Catherine Rippenger Fenwick

A slow languid beginning. I smiled as I saw the clear blue sky. I felt stronger, rested, revived. After a few issues with the visiting squirrels and their tenacious instinct to find food, whilst trampling plants and breaking the bird feeders(again)…sigh…I used the Yellow Pulse Pomander, with all its citrus aromas…taking in a few deep cleansing breaths, I began to re-balance…finally I sat down with a cup of tea… I soon felt renewed, ready to embrace this gorgeous day!

INSIGHTS:

“The most difficult thing but an essential one –

is to love life, to love it even while one suffers,

because life is all, life is God,

and to love life means to love God.” 

Leo Tolstoy

We need to stay clear about who we are and what we believe…be as kind and honest as possible within your own world…rest, relax, and allow life to flow in the best way you know how.
Let us settle down, surrender to it ALL, and bless this time we have here on Earth. Remember, we are key players in a ‘game’ that we chose to explore and live through. So, whats the rush?

THE COLLECTIVE:

“I am stronger than depression

and I am braver than loneliness

and nothing will ever exhaust me.”

Elizabeth Gilbert – Eat, Pray, Love

What I am seeing is how fast we are able to move through our issues and barriers. This confirms that we are moving swiftly forward! Yes, we do seem to be hurtling forwards at great speed into a new and unknown world.
As we each begin to heal old wounds, we allow dated beliefs and patterns to be removed – and soon we become more comfortable being with others – able to meet on equal footing – eye to eye, thigh to thigh, heart to heart. Thats when the real vulnerability begins…

AFFIRMATION: ” I AM Joy!”

“There is a profound necessity at the heart of individuality.

When your life awakens and you begin to sense the destiny that brought you here,

you endeavour to live a life that is generous and worthy

of the blessing and invitation that is always calling you.”

John O’Donohue, Eternal Echoes

Shades of White…

“Rejoice! 

And behold the sun in the mirror. 

Bend your knees, at the altar of your greater self.”
Alison Nappi

TODAY: A gentle shift still taking place…cool, damp, softly drizzling. I stepped out to stand in the rain…it felt cool, refreshing, cleansing…clearing my mind and senses. The many species of birds twittering loudly, ready for breakfast. A gentle day slides into place, as we each rise to greet Her. Ah, the sun, is beginning to shine too…

ONE WORD: Gratitude

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Shades of White

HOW I FEEL: As I peer out of my window the view looks unclear, slightly hazy, cloudy with very gentle rain…Earlier it was quiet…chilly, and I felt cold! Lately I lack clarity yet feel strong. Sometimes uncomfortable, yet understanding and accepting…
I know that I am ‘dying to the old’…that ‘I Am becoming…’ more of who I am to be…as are you…
From all of this, will come a new rhythm to life, a new cycle, and more movement forward into the Divine Flow…

PHYSICALLY: Mellow, soft, peaceful…Recently, I have been having strong bursts of early morning energy, followed by extreme fatigue and lethargy, with little energy for the rest of the day….

INSIGHTS:

What will be great…Develops slowly.

Bobbie Klein

All the physical and emotional issues that we have had to endure and clear…often with little sign of actual change in our lives is almost over. We are in a ‘holding pattern’ ready to embark on our real dream. We are at the station waiting for the ‘runaway train’ to take us to ‘Never Never Land’, which to most of us, will feel like heaven…Ashtara

By moving slowly and deliberately, the changes and enhancements to your life, which you are just getting a hint of, will come into the light of your truth and will manifest as abundance in this coming earthly cycle. Look calmly and with a loving and nonjudgmental heart as you see and feel what is moving toward you, and let it be; don’t tinker with it and do not doubt that destiny is in alignment now. Bobbie Klein

THE COLLECTIVE:

“Fear not said He for mighty dread had seized our troubled minds…” is over.

The outside world may for a time, look nothing like your Dream, but know that it is simply the dismantling of the old grid system and all that it brought. Any outward signs of fear, discord even violence, are part of global cleansing.
Yes, life on Earth does have complex agenda – so intricate that the human mind can not grasp it. We need to trust and know that your soul understands, that we are safe – Stay calm, balanced and aware over the next 92 days and beyond.

What you are seeking will no longer feel so far away.

Ashtara

AFFIRMATION: “I am happy, healthy, wealthy and successful…”

Awaken All of Yourself…

“From the ashes a fire shall be woken,
A light from the shadows shall spring;
Renewed shall be blade that was broken,
The crownless again shall be king.”

J.R Tolkien – Fellowship of the Ring

TODAY: The day is undecided – vacillating between sun and heavy cloud…anticipation abounds. There is a chill in the air…(general elections)

ONE WORD: Expectant

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Green

HOW I FEEL:

“I became aware of my destiny:

to belong to the critical minority

as opposed to the unquestioning majority.”

Sigmund Freud

My journey is becoming a more deeply spiritual experience each day…soft, solitary, delving, releasing, often sad, a painful longing…Yet it feels right. I have been deeply reflective in the past few weeks, with a gentle awareness of inner changes, digesting yet another morsel of life and its many lessons. Always learning, always growing…Opening to new ways of being and with that, endless possibilities.

The energy of Glastonbury and a ‘free-spirit attitude’ (yet I am more at home in a big City) has allowed me the time and space to do this level of deep inner work, which I never anticipated…I have often resisted being here, yet, I am shown each and every day, the purpose for my time in ‘Avalon…’

PHYSICALLY: Unsettled within. Renewal in progress, processing emotions. Sleep comes and goes, days fly by…are there enough hours to just ‘Be’, to feel, to know, to understand…to integrate and rest?

INSIGHTS:

“Would you like to save the world from the degradation and destruction it seems destined for?

Then step away from shallow mass movements and quietly go to work on your own self-awareness.

If you want to awaken all of humanity,

then awaken all of yourself.”

Lao Tzu

I am sensing that only in the past 2 weeks, have we all begun to regain balance and strength…But, there will be days when we feel overtired, overwhelmed, too weak to go about your usual routine…then rest, be kind, allow yourself time to regroup and refresh.

THE COLLECTIVE:

“Another world is not only possible,
She is on her way.
On a quiet day,
I can hear Her breathing.”

Arudhati Roy

Life is hurling ahead at a speed that none can understand or believe – yet much time has passed and we are being reborn and reawakened to a new vision, seeing with new eyes. I feel the changes hourly and understand the many fears and uncertainties.

AFFIRMATION: “I let go of the control of my mental mind. I connect to the love and wisdom of my heart.”

“Let the new breath of God lift you higher and breath you forward

towards what it is you always dreamed of…”

Ashtara

Navigating The Energies of March 2015

I could not have said it better….Thank you Nicole. xo

Cauldrons and Cupcakes

“When you follow a star you know you will never reach that star; rather it will guide you to where you want to go. … So it is with the world. It will only ever lead you back to yourself.”
~ Jeanette Winterson, Boating for Beginners

I’m sure you’ve been noticing it, these intense energies of the last few weeks. The energies are astrological and are caused by planet positioning, the super moon, eclipses, solar flares and storms, and geomagnetic disturbances here on the earth with earthquakes, flooding and cyclones/hurricanes. These energies affect us physically, and sometimes mentally, emotionally or spiritually.

For some people this has manifested as a crushing fatigue coupled with an inability to sleep deeply or well, to the point where they wonder if they have succumbed to some terrible as-yet-undiagnosed disease.

For many there has been an increase in anxiety, sadness for no reason, digestive disturbances…

Technology – nothing is ever as it seems…

“Our feelings and emotions are like the tides of the ocean

never constant,

but ever-changing and as unpredictable as waves.”
Dr Jeff Mullan

TODAY: Bright, light, cold, restful, patient…

ONE WORD: Patience

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Silvery Blues

HOW I FEEL:

“Life is a succession of lessons which must be lived to be understood.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson”

Firstly I want to apologise for my sudden disappearance.
I was taken by surprise when the Internet router/hub connection burnt out! One minute I was online, the next everything was dead, dead, dead…A few hours of panic followed…was it the cable, was it the phone line, was it the adapter…and so it went on. Checking and re-checking, but to no avail…Oh dear, now what! No connection at all!

Long phone calls and hanging on, listening to loud distorted music, taking deep breaths…praying for patience, I tried to be understanding, but irritation was looming…more deep breaths…

Day 2 – I vaguely remembered reading these words, long ago – “Sometimes it is best to simply surrender our own striving and pushing forward and surrender to Higher Timing and will. Don’t knock the benefits of relaxation and meditation…of stilling the mind…and of appreciation the moments between breaths…”

I listened, and I was obedient…

I dropped into my power, became more assertive about what I needed, put my message across, then surrendered. Practicalities followed. New contracts negotiated with a better deal, new exterior wiring scheduled, a new router ordered…yet to arrive.

In the past 6 days I have paced, I have pondered, I have walked, read, meditated, chatted with friends, arranged files and folders, updated my Colour Matrix stock, poured and updated Essences, whilst playing with colour and having fun too, and rest…

I thought of all my precious friends, customers, Blog readers…all of you, and have missed you as well as the opportunities you present me with…I admit too, that there were twinges of guilt…about not being there, with a real longing to connect, to share, to write to you…

INSIGHTS:

Yesterday is gone  and took away its tale. 

Today we must live a fresh story again
Rumi

‘Nothing is ever as it seems…expect the unexpected, every day…’

No matter where we are with ourselves, these times that we are going through, call us to meet personal and collective challenges that are more difficult than anything we’ve ever been through before…
But, be in peace my friends, accept who you are and where you find yourself today, that is important.
I feel joyous today, enriched by every experience, joining you all with each step we take into a beautiful new world….

With Heartfelt Blessings…

AFFIRMATION: “Everything happens in the perfect time…”

“Right now, and in every now-moment,

you are either closing or opening.

You are either stressfully waiting for something –

more money, security, affection

or you are living from your deep heart,

opening as the entire moment,

and giving what you most deeply desire to give,

without waiting.”

David Deida

Spiritual Heart…

Those who don’t feel this Love
pulling them like a river,
those who don’t drink dawn
like a cup of spring water
or take in sunset like supper,
those who don’t want to change,
let them sleep…

DAY: Bright, strong icy wind, cold, time is altering, at times static, then racing…

WORD: Patience

COLOUR: Palest soft pink…

FEELING: Settled, deep inner peace with the magic and mystery of this life…

BODY: slow, unhurried, easily tired…

THE COLLECTIVE:

“Have patience with everything
unresolved in your heart
and try to love the questions themselves.
Don’t search for answers now,
because you would not be able to live them.
And the point is to live everything.”
Rainer Maria Rilke

Often I have talked about how we touch others as we move through life…how we never know how much we have affected someone’s life by a single moment, when we gave just a little more of ourselves, a smile, a touch, a kind word. Those moments in time are part of our purpose. They cause a ripple effect that is timeless and serves our true purpose.  If we are truly here to make a difference we must exist unconditionally.

I know, we have all heard this before, but do we really know what this means? Unconditionally or unconditional love is not an idea, it is not an emotion, and it is a way of being! And we must walk in that energy at all times – to the best of our ability, knowing that everything we do ripples both outward, communicating with all of creation and then inward, as we ourselves evolve further into our Light Being-ness.

INSIGHTS:

Sometimes, even for me,

It is hard to know how to apply unconditionality into everyday living.

How to touch others who just “don’t get it” yet?

Words, even actions,

Don’t always seem to be enough…

Ashtara

March is a perfect time to remember to breathe into our hearts and accept where we are. Breathing deeply into the heart always brings us back to a place of centre. Allow life to be. Let each day bring to you new experiences and most of all, let the love shine thru you and radiate out to all those around you…

Follow your dreams watch your thoughts, make notes, be aware of yourself over the next 7-10 days and become Love – I AM Love, you are Love, we are but Love. And know that as of today you are free, to Love and be loved.

Rise like Lions after slumber. 

Shake your chains to Earth like dew  

Which in sleep had fallen on you  

Ye are many they are few…
