While energy is engaged in trying to reveal something submerged in a muddy pond you may well get covered in mud. It is only when the sun comes up to illuminate the pond that we can clearly see what it truly hides. So focus on the light and add energy to that until the truth can be clearly seen.

In terms of contribution, this isn't sitting back and doing "nothing" , instead I see this as doing a great big deal of "something".💖

So beautifully written 💚
We need to unify right now, not divide.
To do this let's pray for everyone- even those we think don't deserve it. Because they do. 💙

It is quite common to confuse forgiveness with 'letting someone off the hook' from being accountable for their actions-- as if forgiveness robs someone of the opportunity of owning the gravity of their most unconscionable behavior. While untrue, it stems from a subconscious belief often suggesting, "if I don't condemn, I'm being compliant. " It's quite an extreme view that is ultimately rooted in fear-- in particular, the fear of being associated with atrocious actions or believing atrocity will only get worse, "if I don't relentlessly judge, condemn, and criticize insidious behavior." Even though attacking victimizers does more to strengthen the worthlessness that causes them to hurt others as a way of bypassing their own unresolved pain than it does to rescue those being hurt.

In essence, condemning a victimizer creates more time and space for that criticism to become additional ammunition to unload onto more innocent people. It furthers the problem instead of resolving it at its root. In order to cleanse this planet of predatory patterning and create an energetic grid with a vibration that allows change to be processed, growth to be inspired, and even hardship to be overcome without harm done to self or another, both the victim and victimizer must be healed.

By praying for the salvation of a victimizer, you aren't saying anything is okay or let's let it go. You are aware that, through our interconnection of oneness, praying for the salvation of a victimizer transforms that aspect into a version of self that cannot and will not do harm, creating greater space for their self-accountability to arise. Simultaneously, such an act of salvation liberates every victim of that abuser, including the ancestral lineages of all victims and victimizers through your courageous desire to serve and further the healing of life's most daunting depth of suffering. It's nearly like being face-to-face with a criminal who has victims held hostage, not knowing this is a stand-off with your true Buddha nature. If it was a stand-off with your ego, you might be conflicted as to how to spare the victims held at bay without letting the victimizer go.

And yet, when understanding the grace of Universal redemption, no one is let 'off the hook' to go spread further harm, but rather escorted directly into the heart of Source to undergo a radical process of transformation and self-accountability that cannot be confused with rationalizing the damage done in moments of abuse. And so, the wise Buddha grants the victimizer salvation, freeing the victims to begin the healing process, while the victimizer begins the journey of facing hurt and the hurt caused without hurting another.

None of this will feel fair to the human self which is why, as a form of karmic yoga, the human focuses on how each courageous act of prayer, contribution to social reform, and donations made to reputable charities furthering change on this level help rescue victims from abuse. If and when ending cycles of violence, war, abuse, suffering, and separation weigh deeply on our hearts, then may we leave no stone unturned in the unconditional redemption of each soul. Since not everyone is ready for this type of step or contribution, please hold no pressure over yourself to push and push until you can achieve the unthinkable. That type of push would make it more about self-achievement than the abused beings we are so selflessly serving.

No matter how much or how little you are able to contribute, dare to bless the selflessness of awakened beings who are willing to 'go there' on humanity's behalf—whether anyone else may go there, understand its importance, or would rather condemn such a being for the healing inspired and the number of victims and ancestral lineages quietly set free. It is all a part of know thy self. You can go within and know yourself as an entire Universe of infinite Universes. And yet, you haven't truly known yourself until you come back from within to meet extensions of yourself as the people you help to heal. This is why the deepest self-realization is not a phrase or concept, but a humble movement of inspired service for the liberation of all. May all beings be healed and liberated by the inspired actions we take, the prayers we create, and by becoming the change we wish to see — now and forever. And so it is.

All For Love,

All we need to do is bloom, do what comes naturally, flow with nature, trust timing. Nothing in nature can be forced. When we get this and align to it , things that we are meant to serve and that are meant to serve us , land. Effortlessly.

Just like my magnolias. 💚

As a society we've been taught the opposite, to strive , to work hard , to do and do and do because of the belief that's the only way things can happen. This was a huge belief system in me, one that I am still peeling back layers.

I share in the hope this helps others who feel this polarity, this misalignment . This is presently surfacing for many. Brushing it off is a big dis-service to yourself. It is only going to get louder.
Know you have the answers within. Sit in silence, in trust and humility for them to surface. Act on the guidance you receive. If there's wounding which we all have , seek to heal it . Give it love, give it your time to understand it better. Open up to those you trust.
Question the I have tos and musts- does it serve you ? You will know because if you pay attention it will feel constricted.

May we remember who we truly are , what we came here to be.

From my heart to yours xx 💚

There’s is so much divine intervention and light coming through right now and for the rest of December. Wherever you may be at on your spiritual journey , if you feel in need of support or just in need of something without even knowing what that something is , a void, take a few deep breaths into your heart space , open your palms up and say this , out loud is even better-
I allow
I receive
I trust
I thank you

Repeat 3-5 times and feel every word deeply as you say it.

You are always supported even and especially when you don’t feel it. Just sit with yourself , in nature if you can, to tap into it. Also, please reach out to anyone who you might feel a ping with . A fleeting thought or desire to connect with . The world has many people waiting for another person to make the first move.
Make the first move. ❤️

My daughter's love of nature on a plate. Quite literally! All either picked off the ground or she asked each one permission before she plucked and only took what came off easily. Her idea and handywork, start to finish.
We think we need to teach our kids, give them projects, keep them busy with things to do .
This is how they truly learn, by living and being free to enjoy the moments . This is how they teach us- to unlearn, to truly live 💚.

Is it a whisper or a roar? Either way, it doesn't matter, just listen. Listen with your heart. Willing or even unwilling to begin with, just listen.

I feel like I say this every week but it's the same message I keep receiving- the winds are changing . It's a beautiful wind and the change it's bringing for you, for us. This is the important bit- This is not about external change be it political, climate or lifestyle you want or think you need . This is what many seem to look toward, to focus on, to desire. It's about the change in you. Internal. Go within. Take notice. Feel all the feelings. Notice the shoulds, coulds and musts that don't actually serve you. Listen to the guidance that is for you and of you.

I see and feel a pink light whirling. Shimmering. Floating. A union of the red and white divine light. The red rose and the white jasmine. I see this as a purification, an alchemy bringing about our divine (inner) union . An integration of ego and soul. The subconscious becoming conscious.
An activation for our transcendence. This feels strong for the next 6 weeks. Dance with it, bathe in it. It is fun ,it is light.
It is here to help you remember, to remember your soul contract, your soul family. What you came here to do. Not in terms of a career or profession , but your way of living. Of being.

You are here to bring that into reality as you remember. This is manifesting, calling in what your heart knows, not what your mind wants. You may be surprised by what you feel and see with your heart and it could even contradict what your mind has wanted. Stay here. Listen. Feel deeply. Let the thoughts come and go. You will know because it will feel right even if you mind wants to tell you no.

Go for long walks, sit in nature and soak it in, stretch your body to diffuse stagnant energy, to bring in light energy. Let it in slowly but completely. It will tell you things you need to hear. They may seem new but at the same time familiar. This is the remembering and if this is happening to, for and in you now , know you are on path.

On path to joy, to unity, to love.

From my heart to yours, may you have a wonderful week of remembering xx

Grey clouds. Clear skies. Rainbows. Lightning.
It doesn't matter how the outside might seem. It's not about how it looks. It's about how you feel. You have full control of that.
Right now, more than ever we are being asked to take control, not allow the external to control us. Bypass the distractions. By going within. Working with all aspects of self, to shine light on our shadows. This light serves you and the collective both, for we are all one.
There is currently so much light frequencies for us to receive. It is pouring in. Breathe into your heart space a few times.Visualise and feel the light. Bring the light in through the crown and feet and feel it swirl, glow as bright as possible and allow it to warm you up. To fill you up from head to toe. Do this slowly with your breath, taking the time to notice and allow it to go wherever it needs to.
This will appease the tiredness, overwhelm, confusion, inner conflict, rage, dread , physical sensations of pain or discomfort such as breathlessness, tense body-neck/shoulders, restless feet. This is how you transmute it -with light.
Do this often and even when you feel good.

Needed change is coming. It is already happening . Those holding faith know this. If you aren't hopeful, ask why. Why do I deny myself this trust, this comfort. Why do I stay distracted, fearful or maybe even numb to it. Faith is trusting everything is and always will be ok. How you practice that faith is up to you. Do it in any way that resonates. Nature, God, meditation.Love. There are many ways. All connect us back to Source.
Open chest stretches, grounding, prayer, time in nature, journalling, a heart felt conversation with yourself are ways to be heart centered and connected. Connection to Source is our remembering, our returning home and it feels good!
Strengthening this connection feels very much the present ask so deep change and healing can happen. On a personal and collective level. For unspent tears to be shed. To listen with our hearts to truths wanting to be revealed. To start living with integrity. To realise we are all one. To find our way back home.

Stay strong, hold steady and have faith.
From my heart to yours xx

🙏

Each time I communicate more kindly, may the oceans be purified. Each time I love myself or another, may all sentient beings be freed from slavery. With each act of generosity, may selfishness have a change of heart. As I become more tolerant, may equality and opportunity be provided for all. Each time I offer gratitude, may cruelty find a more humane way of healing its pain. Each time I act from a space of kindness, may humanity align as One. If these changes and more is the world you wish to see — it always begins with you. It’s not the only solution, but it remains the most viable option you always have the power to embrace along the path of inspired action. This is the heart of unity consciousness.

Numb
Broken
Insignificant
Sad
Worried

Vibrant
Connected
Secure
Happy
Peaceful

Which of these 2 groups are you more in right now?
I'm feeling both in the collective. Passion being sent out as anger by some, others love.
As divided and contrasting as they may seem, it is what unites us, what brings balance.
The higher frequency emotions are helping transmute the lower frequency emotions. If you are feeling low, that is perfectly ok. As humans, we cycle .We have our ups, we have our downs. In our ups, we lift us and others up. In our downs, we may not be aware of this but there are others doing the uplifting for us. Bringing in the balance. Things are always in balance. Always as they should be even when we insist this isn't so. If we can't see it, perhaps it's because we need to take a step back. See the bigger picture. Get outside our heads.
Trust the balance and allow what is to be. Feel rather than think about what is or isn't right.
When you feel deeply, even in a storm, you will know there is peace. Why? Because your soul knows, if you listen.
Listen now. Go to your depths.
Deep soulful breathing is so needed in the world right now. Breathe in peace, breathe in love, breathe in compassion. Feel it in your depths, then send this out. Regardless of how high or low you feel presently, this is how you bring in balance. In you. In the world . In the multi-universe to which you belong. As we heal, as we remember, so does the world.
Do this as often as you can.

So for this and the next few weeks, find balance. No big gestures needed, just kindness and compassion firstly for yourself (flaws and all- especiallly what you view as flaws) and for others too. Even those and especially those that seem to be at opposing ends to you.

Nothing is ever wrong, everything is just so.

I feel I should start by asking , how are you doing? If you are feeling alone, unsupported, as many are right now, know that there is support. But why can't I feel or see it you say? Because you need to tap into it. It's waiting for you to do this. To come to the table. To stop feeling like a victim. Change expectation on what and how this support may feel. Because if it's 'small', you may be missing it and wanting a big 'save' or answer to come your way. Big or small, it is offering you comfort. It's saying "One step at a time, my love. I'm here for you. Take my hand." Feel into all of it and receive it with a grateful heart.

Feel the warm sun on your chest
Allow the breeze to soothe you
Reach out and seek the warmth of a friend
Seek professional help from someone your heart resonates with
Pay attention to soul urges you've been feeling and act on them. Be brave. This is a big one. We tend to sit in discomfort for longer than we should.
Sit on the earth and breathe along side her
Eat light ,eat nourishingly. Soul food over tasty food
Start some daily rituals .This is a great form of fortification. Start small, notice changes, then build on it.

All of the above is support . Don't downplay them. Get off your bum and start doing something. Do it for YOU.

Many right now may be feeling discomfort in the form of worry, anxiety, sadness, doubt, loneliness, irritability, overactive mind, muddled thoughts with physical manifestations such as sleeplessness, shortness of breath, tightness or fluttering in the chest, mild seasonal illnesses asking for you to rest , to pause because you may be doing or thinking too much .
While these feelings may make you feel bad or that something is wrong, there is nothing wrong at the same time. It is right to show up , to get you to pay attention . So start noticing, ask what it needs from you not with an intention to fix but to give it love and compassion. If we keep looking at discomfort as wrong, it stays wrong. You don't get rid of it with a kick or push, you lovingly transmute it with kindness and understanding.

Go easy , go gentle but I urge you to GO. DO. It is time and you are ALWAYS supported. You just need to believe 🙏.

From my heart to yours xx
