Inching Towards the Doorway…

“They were dreamers, and imaginers, and declarers; they lived looking and looking, seeing the apparent and beyond the apparent,
wondering, allowing for uncertainty,
also grace, easygoing here, ferociously unmovable there;
they were thoughtful.”
Mary Oliver

TODAY: Warm, hidden agendas, unsettled energies, faith needed, focus, settle….flow…

IN ONE WORD: Balance

COLOUR OF THE DAY: Violet

HOW I FEEL:
“As a child I felt myself to be alone, and I am still,

because I know things and must hint at things which others apparently know nothing of,

and for the most part do not want to know.”
Carl Jung

I woke aware that my mind was reliving parts of my past – yet, sensing the future, then back into the past…finally letting go! Over and over and over…I understood in a new way and was able to do more forgiving, and I embraced this new way of seeing the past.

Often I have felt alone and lonely, depleted, bare…then with fresh eyes and gentle realisations I am always led to inspiration and elation! Full once more…

Understanding and acceptance are constant for me this year…and prayers…for all that I am, we are…holding up the Light, expanding it – lifting and falling, holding and guiding, supporting and finally resting.

The insights kept coming, going deeper and deeper. Going through layer upon layer of deep healing and the strengthening…light shining through…more self discovery.

At this time, as we slowly move into a more Autuminal time, I feel freer, I feel wiser, different…I have expanded in so many ways, I feel self assured and safe…I feel gratitude, deep and intense…I feel reverence, I feel love…

I accept, there is much still to know. This journey is meant to take me somewhere that I want to go! Today, tomorrow and for as long as I AM here…I am soul. I am vast. And as of today, I fully honour my sacred purpose.

I AM blessed.

INSIGHTS:
“But if these years have taught me anything it is this: you can never run away.

Not ever. The only way out is in.”
Junot Díaz

It is clear that it is time to create a new world for all of life to move into. See and know that we are not the same beings anymore. I know I am not! We have been inching towards the doorway to the next world for so long, that many of us are tired of trying…tired of being…I say; “Don’t give up…”

THE COLLECTIVE:

But in the last months, it has become clear too, that we are walking through a mysterious door, and beginning to cross a bridge into the unknown world of which we have yet to create. We have had to re-think so much about what we knew to be true, and we have to learn new ways to live in this rapidly shifting world.

Let us choose this DAY…

10533179_570703019709349_9157041424153672939_o

Let us choose this day


To live true to our hearts,

To get dirty, to sweat…

To touch the untouchable,

To taste the forbidden…


To give even when it doesn’t seem

To make sense.

To listen to the other side.

To admit that we are human.

To search for the truth.

To evolve, to forgive,


To get up and stand up.

To respect all forms of life.

To love at all costs.

And to never be too busy to care.

Farewell Mandela…’parting is such sweet sorrow…’

“It is what we make out of what we have, not what we are given,

that separates one person from another.”

Nelson Mandela.

Hamba Gathle!

Go well and in peace – at last Madiba!

True greatness reflects in the true use of power – and you managed to find a deep and profound forgiveness in your heart and soul…. and refused to give into hatred and anger.

It is love which carried you through – and it is the heart of a rainbow nation you won in the end…. because your wisdom shone through it all.

Go lion of Africa – your ancestors welcome you home to the Halls of Amneti…

And Africa is rising again….

Nkosi S’keleli Africa –

God bless Africa and sons and daughters….

Written by Judith Kusel

 will say this one final time…

there be but one race of people, 

the human race.

and whether we accept it or not,

we are responsible both to and for

each other.

Perhaps the Earth’s greatest leader, Nelson Mandela, has gone home to God but he left large footprints for all to follow. His path points in a clear direction, toward: love, forgiveness, trust and a rainbow world filled with diversity that honors uBuntu/Oneness. I am because You Are. Thank you Nelson Mandela for being the change we wish to see in the world. You were that.

if peace be the journey…

let this breath be the bridge.

let us seek not to win,

but to forgive.

not redemption, but to redeem.

not to hold, but to give.

let us seek not love, 

but let us love…

be at peace, Nelson.

Walk with the Dreamers…

Walk with the dreamers, the believers, the courageous,

the cheerful, the planners, the doers, the successful,

people with their heads in the clouds and their feet on the ground. 

Wilfred Peterson~

 DAY: hazy, drizzle, cleansing

WORD: recognition

COLOUR: sea-green

FEELING: taller, stronger, regrouping, more certain

BODY: settling down, easing into all that within me, is ‘new’

THE COLLECTIVE: “There is so much light coming into the planet right now that the shift is happening. It certainly isn’t being perceived by the average person and certainly isn’t being reported by the mainstream media. However, you can feel the interconnectedness of people and the awareness that is growing throughout the world. It is a beautiful thing and creates a wonderful sense of hope that the darkness we have been living with will soon be dissipated.” Ted Murray

INSIGHTS: Take off the mask. Forgive everyone. Be all of who you are! On every level! Do it now, don’t think it, act it, or pretend to do it…Trust! As the inner changes, allow the outer to reflect this…. Change your hair, wear new colours, try new things, be bold, be wild, love deeply, dance and sing, sit in silence, weep, dine, rest, drink, rejoice and slow down if you are spinning out….but be sure to be True to YOU in every way! Escape all negative influences, leave them behind with love and thanks, release yourself from THEIR fears.

“Someone asked me what home was and all I could think of

were the stars on the tip of your tongue,

the flowers sprouting from your mouth,

the roots entwined in the gaps between your fingers,

the ocean echoing inside of your ribcage.” 

e.e. cummings

Unknown Destinations…

“Are you destined to ride a wave of light that softly floats periwinkles upon the seashore,

or a wave of light that takes you into unparalleled possibilities

thru unknown destinations of time.”

unknown

DAY: bright, crisp, cold, quiet

WORD: possibilities

COLOUR: silver/gold

FEELING: insightful, aware, compassionate, understanding

BODY: gentle aching, sleepy, slow, content

THE COLLECTIVE: There is no need to feel overloaded now. Pace yourself, allow rest time. Be truthful about how you feel and act on it… 

INSIGHTS: last night as I lay in bed, I was suddenly watching a movie of my 2013. What an extraordinary year it has been! I don’t think I have ever lived through a year quite like it…It has been a true roller coaster ride. Which is the perfect way to describe it, with so many magnificent highs and lows too. But, Heavenly in so many ways…

There has been love and disappointment, passion and sorrow, comforting and discomfort, illness and wellness, long periods of lethargy for integration, followed by dancing! Some days a need for music and then going into periods of silence, feeling reverence and a desire for solitude.  Occasional fear and panic, followed by great hope and expansiveness. Other moments of complete weakness and a need for rest, yet there has been much restlessness.

Motivation came in waves…or a complete lack of it! Living in isolation almost, but often a strong need to be out in the big wide world!  Ah, the shifts, changes, ideas, creations!

Ecstatic moments of awareness, seeing ‘otherworldly’ energies, ‘messages’, insights, nudges and alchemical action. Days of intense energies all around me and inside me, downloads, then depletion…Reliving the past and often sensing the future, then back into the past…finally letting go! Over and over and over! Always forgiving, always understanding, embracing all that is new…

The joy in giving and the pleasure of receiving…Ah, expectations and acceptance. Perceptions and reflections, loving and caring…Oft, going into the void. A broken spirit, a well of loneliness…disappointments and yet, so many joyous moments too. My needs versus fierce independence…resolving, releasing, healing. Sharing and caring, teaching and guiding, nudging and holding…Carrying and letting go.

Oh, then laughter and many tears. From intense happiness to deep sadness all over again. At times I have felt so alone. Empty, depleted, bare…then new realisations, learning, leading to inspiration and elation! Full once more…Understanding and acceptance were constant!

And another thing that has been constant is rain. The Great Mother cleared and cleared and wept and wept…as the Great Heart opened wider. Growing and awakening, over and over like the tides…allowing. Then just ‘being’ with a new found knowing-ness. And praying for ALL that we are…holding up the Light, expanding it, lifting and falling, holding, guiding, supporting and finally a need to let go some more…insights, deep healing and the strength.

Loving, always loving and being of that Love, intense love, my melting heart, aching, full, at times painful…And sensual, desiring, feeling…then lifting these same feelings and desires…to richer love and brighter light…metamorphosis?

AND THEN: A need for change, to rearrange, to alter! To begin again? To move, to stay. Yet, preparing for the new, restless, owning, giving, accepting, understanding the need to go in deep…Finally settling.

Am I home? Great losses and great gains…In a new space in every possible way…The ‘spiritual avalanche’ is over…

I AM…..

The higher we soar the smaller we appear to those who cannot fly.

~Friedrich Nietzsche
