Finding the Divine Within

In this heavy and dense 3-dimensional existence, we often feel alone, separate from everyone and everything in the world around us. It is this sense of separation that leads us to feelings of fear and depression. We don't feel we have the power to cope with the obstacles we face every day. Indeed, we are taught to look outside ourselves for something bigger and better that can to save us. We see this scenario played out in our fairy tales, our television programs and even our religions.

The fact of the matter is, each one of us contains a spark of the Divine. Each one of us has the ability to tap into a place deep within that connects us to Source energy and all that is. This is the place of all wisdom and understanding. This is where we know we are part of the grand whole that is life itself. We are never alone once we understand and live this connection.

Separation is an illusion. Learn to connect to that place inside that connects you to all that is Divine. Your life will never be the same!

I would love to hear your thoughts on this topic! How have you felt this connection to the Divine and what was your experience? Your understanding might be key for someone else to experience their own connection! Please share below!

Calling All Empaths

Are you one of those extra-sensitive people who literally carry the weight of the world on your shoulders? I have a message for you! Your higher purpose begins now. It is time to join with your fellow empaths and BE the healer you came into the world to be!

There is a reason you were given the gift of sensitivity in this heavy third-dimensional world. Empaths are the first people to understand problems exist. This is because empaths are highly aware of feelings, and feelings are the language of the heart--the place of connection to the divine and the source of all knowledge and wisdom. Empaths are the first to feel and identify the heaviness and pain in a situation, hence problem awareness.

Empaths are natural problem solvers. When we feel pain, anger, sadness, etc. we are the first to ask why and look for ways to fix it. Because we are in tune with our hearts, it becomes easy to ask questions that lead to real heart-based solutions. Our feelings help us identify the best path to take in a given situation.

You feel the pain of the planet and her inhabitants. You have felt it building to a peak for years. The pain, anger, and frustration are almost unbearable now. There is growing awareness among the masses that something needs to be done about our problems. They are trying to come up real world solutions. The problem is, the solutions less sensitive people come up with are based on the understandings of the mind. As the mind does not have direct access to the knowledge of the divine, the solutions that come from the mind are extremely limited. Sometimes they can even cause more problems than they solve.

Let me give you a real world example. Gun control is a raging debate here in the United States. One side believes that guns are bad things that people need to be saved from. Their solutions are to either take guns away altogether or limit gun ownership to people who can pass very rigorous background checks. While I don't believe either of these arguments are "bad", I do believe they are limited. Criminals are not likely to follow such rules. Consequently, you haven't really solved anything, including gun violence.

On the other side of the argument are the people who tout the "right to bear arms". Again, I don't believe this is "bad" in and of itself. There are people in the world who wish to physically harm us or take away our possessions. I can also see the argument that a government out-of-control could seek to take away the last of our freedom through force. Guns can be used for defense of life and property. Still, is being allowed to own a gun solving any problem? No. Crime still exists.

What is the solution? My heart tells me that people need to be provided for. They need food, water, shelter, clothing. They need comfort, security and love. If people can learn to work together to help each being obtain these things, they have no need to fight among themselves. The solution to gun control does not lie in the guns themselves. It lies in teaching people to live with integrity. It lies in learning to cooperate instead of compete. It lies in seeking the ways of the heart.

This is why you are so important as an empath. You are tuned in to the ways of the heart. Your compassion is unmatched. Your understanding of the world's problems is second to none. Your sensitivities have called you to the work of healing a broken and dying planet. You, as an empath, are here to change the world! Allow yourself to join together with your fellow empaths and begin the work you were called to do.

Connect To Your Knowing

Have you ever just known something without understanding how you know it? I'm talking about the sort of information that spontaneously comes to mind when you are occupied at some task that has nothing at all to do with the information. The knowing is so strong you cannot deny the thought. Then later--it might be an hour or a day or a month or a year--you find that understanding has worked itself out just the way you knew it would. I believe we all experience this from time to time. This is the sort of information that comes from connecting to Oneness, and Oneness is something you have the ability to intentionally connect to if you so desire.

What is Oneness? Oneness is the place where everything exists and nothing is judged. It is the place of truth and contains all knowledge and all understanding. For me, it is the ultimate place for answers because nothing is hidden there.

In our 3-dimensional world, many things are hidden from us. It is easy to hide information from us here because we have been taught to think purely with our minds. We use our five senses to gain information. Coupled with the lessons we learn from our families and the society around us, we base our beliefs and understandings on this extremely limited information. The irony comes when we believe we have all the answers. What the mind provides to us is merely one or maybe a couple particular perspectives. It does not provide a complete picture.

Our hearts are what connect us to Oneness--connect us to our knowing. As Oneness contains all knowledge and information, a person can access anything they want to understand by connecting to the heart. Our hearts think through feeling. This is why listening to your feelings plays a crucial role in accessing the knowledge that comes from connection to all things. Feelings give you immediate feedback about direction in life. If a choice makes you feel happy and expansive, understand this is a choice that will move you toward purpose. If you feel sad, angry or fearful, it is time to back away.

Connecting to Oneness is the place of creativity. This is where artists and musicians and scientists go for insight and understanding, even if they are not consciously aware that's what they are doing. People who have good problem-solving skills are often connected in to the heart. Again, Oneness contains all knowledge and information so this is where new knowledge comes from.

There are techniques and tricks you can use to help you tap into this infinite understanding in an intentional, conscious way. There is no right or wrong way to connect. Not every technique will work for every person. That said, what you need to understand is this: connecting to your knowing lies in the ability to connect to and think with your heart. Ask the Universe for help connecting. Answers will come when you ask.

When we are all able to connect to our knowing--connect to our hearts--our world will be a very different and wonderful place.

The Power Of Naps!

I have a definite fondness for naps. Part of my appreciation for them stems from my time as a Pre K teacher. My home state of Georgia uses its lottery earnings to fund a free Pre K program for students all over the state. Because students are only 4-years-old, lawmakers required an hour rest time to be included as part of the school day.

Needless to say, most of the kids did not appreciate nap time even though quite a few of them still needed it. As I observed them before and after nap, I could see it often made a huge difference in how they handled the rest of their day.

The older I get, the more I enjoy naps. Not only do they rest my body, but there is a component of naps that also nurtures the soul. Naps allow you to break away from the physical world and connect to the quiet, where God and Oneness dwell.

Take the time to take a nap! You may just discover the pieces of your life all begin to fall into place!

The Choice

There comes a point in our lives when we all have to make a choice. That choice is to follow the way of the mind or the way of the heart. While neither choice is good or bad in and of itself, they involve two very different ways of functioning--two different ways of BEing. That said, the outcomes of both ways of existence are very different.

The way of the mind is living within your programming. You are born with specific genetic birth parents, which determines certain characteristics about you. You are then raised in a family or tribe that places you within certain parameters.. These parameters separate and divide us from each other and include things like culture, religion, country, gender, etc. As we grow up, we are taught the boundaries and limitations of each parameter, which shapes the way we think and act. Quite often, we learn to identify ourselves by these parameters. We also use those parameters to identify and classify others. While we function in the present, living through the mind can also encompass visiting the past and future as well. Many of us are quite happy living within these frameworks of separation.

The way of the heart is living through a natural and internal guidance system which is accessed through the heart. Instead of being shaped by outside forces, it gains wisdom and understanding by connecting to all things through an internal source. It is nonjudgmental, basing its choices on instruction coming directly from this heart connection where all wisdom and knowledge exists. The heart functions in the now, but is not dependent on time. Past, present, and future exist simultaneously within the heart, even while living in the moment. It is a very different way of thinking--a very different way of BEing. It is a state of living in flow. While we sometimes are able to exist within this space, for most of us the instances are rare.

At some point in life we encounter situations that make us question all those values we have been taught within the framework of the mind. These are choice points. They are experiences where you can BEcome something different than what you have always known. They usually occur when something out of the ordinary happens--job loss, death, illness, etc.--although they can happen at less pivotal times as well. The point is, you have come to a place in your life where you are jolted into the realization that your mind programming does not fit the situation comfortably. Most of us are so ingrained with our mind programs that we continue to look for (and find) solutions that come from that way of thinking. Understand that we when find solutions by thinking with the mind, the problem will eventually come back. It may come back in slightly different form, but it always comes back.

The choice is about making the transition from living through the mind to living through the heart. It is not an easy transition as, for most of us, it means letting go of what we think we know. Still, the more we can learn to think and act from the heart, the more we will begin to make decisions based on what is good for the collective instead of our separate selves. We are able to find our place in flow. We are empowered to live in abundance and blessing. We become examples to show others the way.

Animal And Plant Energies

I do not consider myself an animal person. While I typically like them (and they like me back), they don't seem to hold my interest for long. I do have an ongoing love affair with plants. I enjoy being out in nature, soaking in the green that surrounds me and talking to the trees. I have a fairly green thumb when it comes to gardens and houseplants. I even have a wonderful shamrock on my kitchen counter I talk to frequently. I have never really thought about why I prefer plants to animals until today, when I finally asked the question. Plant energies are much more soothing to me than animals energies.

Many people get a great deal of comfort and satisfaction from loving animals. Animals can provide unconditional love that is often lacking in the world today. That said, sometimes the energy that comes from animals can be little too intense for me. It is at times almost frenetic. It requires more interaction than I often have the energy to provide back. Consequently, I have a tendency to hold myself back from animals.

Plant energies are much less intrusive. I can go outside and interact with them when I choose. Their energies are much lower key and in that way less demanding. The interesting thing about my relationship with plants is that I talk to them, and in certain ways they talk back to me. My shamrock is always sure to remind me when he needs more water. When I am walking in the woods, certain trees come into my awareness more than others. It's as if they are calling out to me to pay attention to them specifically. For me it becomes an almost magical experience.

I'm not here to say that communing with plants is better than communing with animals. Communing with plant energies is just more soothing to me personally. I know a good many people who feel the same way about animals. It's all good! No matter what you are drawn to, understand there is probably a reason for it. Allow it to exist without judgment. It is through honoring the various energies around us that we are able to connect and remember that we are all truly One.

The Language Of Frequency

What if I told you that everything has a sort of consciousness? We are not trained to think that way. We believe humans are at the top of the food chain because we have the ability to think and move and communicate. Animals come in second, largely because we can see they have many of these same abilities. Everything else that makes up this planet--plants, water, minerals, etc.--is seen as useful but not conscious. The consciousness I am referring to can be experienced and understood as frequency, and, yes, literally everything carries one!

For people who are sensitive to energy, frequency carries a language whose messages can be interpreted. Often these messages are difficult to pick up because we are so used to living in this state of separation we forget we are all part of Oneness. Still, the messages--awarenesses--are out there.

I have always been sensitive to plants. I have a shamrock plant on my kitchen windowsill that lets me know when it needs something--water, more sunlight, etc. I find myself drawn to certain trees, shrubs and plants when I am out in nature. There is a stand of trees in my yard that I put some of my kitchen waste (grease and table scraps) in so they don't clog up my sink. When I first began doing it, I would dump some of it out when it was still hot. After a while though, I was made aware that the heat was hurting the trees! I felt awful! Needless to say, I make sure everything is room temperature before I dump it out now.

It is frequency I hear when I get messages from people who are profoundly disabled. It is frequency I hear when I feel led to check the pockets of my coat and find money. There are literally thousands of voices that surround us every day, all calling out through the power of their personal vibrations.

Perhaps the easiest way to become more sensitive to them is to begin talking to individual things when you connect to Oneness in meditation. Explore a single blade of grass. How does it make you feel? What do you appreciate or dislike about it? The more questions you ask, the more you will begin to understand about whatever you are consciously connecting with.

Frequency does carry a language you can learn to communicate through. It's all part of becoming more aware and connected to your heart. You may just discover your life flows much more easily as you hear the messages from the world around you.

Eradicating Evil

Just a few short years ago, I lived in a make-believe world. I thought most people, including those who ran the planet, were just like me--trying to do good in the world while making a few mistakes here and there along the way.

I no longer believe that. Instead, I believe the people who currently run planet Earth are evil beyond belief. Murder, lies, theft, corruption. If it gives them advantage, they are willing to do anything to maintain their power and control.

I didn't want to leave my make-believe world. It was comfortable. It felt safe. It was what I had always known. One of the hardest things I've ever done in my life was to give up my false beliefs for the evidence I began seeing once I asked the right questions. I literally watched my world crumble down to its very foundation, and I have had to work hard to build it back into something I could once again depend on. It's difficult to believe I lived in denial for so long, it all seems obvious to me now.

As I look around, many of the people I love still live in that make-believe world. It's frustrating to me because they try to fix the world using the same old tired solutions--solutions that have been provided by the false gods of this pseudo-world to keep us occupied with meaningless gestures that maintain their status quo. The problems can only be fixed if we actually see them. Consequently, the powers that be have done everything they can to hide their actions.

In order to eradicate evil, we have to expose it to the light. We have to spotlight what they do so powerfully it is impossible for anyone to be in denial any longer. It is only when people fully understand the evil that they are willing to step up in their own power and change things. This is what transparency is all about.

This is also what connecting to your heart is all about. When you connect to your heart and access Oneness, you access the divine. You access all knowledge and wisdom available in the One. There can be no greater transparency than that.

Connecting to the divine through your heart also has another advantage: it allows you to clearly see the path your own life needs to take. Your heart is what connects you to the bigger picture and shows you how you can help improve life here on planet Earth.

Eradicating evil will not be an easy task. It is a process and will probably take years as there is a lot of light that needs to be uncovered on our planet. Understand the process begins with us taking the time to connect to the light within and using that guidance and wisdom to be the change we wish to see in the world.

Home Is Where The Heart Is!

I've lived in quite a few different places over the years. I began life in Ohio and lived in that state until the summer I turned fifteen. At that point, my father's job took us to South Carolina, where I spent the next three years making friends and absorbing a whole new unexpected culture. During the next phase of my journey, I ended up in Iowa. I went there for school and pretty much stayed there most of the next twelve years after marrying someone who also had family there. My life changed again when that marriage fell apart and I moved to Georgia to be close to my parents.

While I've made friends everywhere I've lived and enjoyed various things about each place, Georgia is the only place I've never wanted to move away from. I'm not saying Georgia is the best place I've ever lived. It's just that this is the place my heart tells me I should be.

When I was growing up in Ohio, I was always curious about new places. I enjoyed going on cross country trips with my family. I loved meeting people from new places. I always wanted to explore and I was definitely open to the idea of moving someplace different.

South Carolina met that requirement in ways I never imagined possible. I got to see the ocean for the first time. I was able to hike small mountains and appreciate the sweetness of fruit grown in red clay. Even more interesting was exploring a culture I had read about in my history books, but never really knew or understood until I found myself living in the middle of it. It was all wonderful and all worth it! Still, it wasn't really home.

Iowa was perhaps the place I had the most trouble living in. Between college, my job, and the church I attended I had lots of good, solid friends. There was a great deal of beauty in the rolling farmland and the colorful sunrises and sunsets. Still, I was never content there, never at home. I always felt like I wanted to be somewhere else the whole time I lived there without ever understanding why.

The why is that my heart was calling me elsewhere. It knew I was not meant to be in Iowa forever. It knew there was somewhere else I needed to put down roots. Consequently when I ended up in Georgia (pretty much kicking and screaming in the beginning), my life began to take on a more calm and settled quality.

I was very broken when I came to Georgia. I had been trying to keep my ten+ year marriage afloat while raising three very small children and I was literally exhausted. My parents welcomed us with open arms, and I found even more family in the church we attended. As I healed, I began to appreciate the world I had ended up in. While Georgia has many of the same geographical features South Carolina has, it also has a much more cosmopolitan approach to life and the world thanks to Atlanta and its international airport. While I am still curious about various places and peoples around the world, I find myself wanting the visit those places but see myself coming back home to Georgia.

Georgia is the first place I feel settled--the first place I truly never want to leave for more than a vacation. I love exploring the countryside. I enjoy wandering in the city. I know that mountains and beaches are easy drives away. I love the fact that Georgia still has four seasons but the winters are mild. There are many days when I look at my husband and say, "I'm so happy to be in Georgia!", and indeed I am!

Your heart knows what your adventures need to be. Your heart knows where your best interests lie. That's because your heart is your connection to God/Source/Oneness. If you are discontent with anything, understand that is the wisdom of your heart calling you to change. Trust its guidance. It will lead you home.

The Lie

We have been told that nature's way is the survival of the fittest, that man as well as animals are always in a state of competition. They compete for the best food. They compete for the best territory. They compete for the best mates. It is through the struggle for dominance and control that our various species strengthen themselves and become better. We are even shown "examples" of this in the animal kingdom to justify the same behavior in humans. "Instinct" they call it. I'm here to tell you this is a lie.

How do I know this is a lie? I know it's a lie because my heart tells me so. My heart hurts when I overpower another in the name of winning. It feels sadness when I see that someone doesn't have what they need to survive. My heart feels anger when I see people who have much more than they or their families could ever use in a hundred lifetimes taking even more. I know that, when I help someone in need, not only is the other person stronger but I am stronger as well.  

None of those feelings indicate to me that competition is a natural thing. While I can see the possibility of a starving person going a bit crazy and fighting for food, I believe that it is more the fact that food is limited than it is that person really wants to fight. There are many who starve to death every day without fighting for the limited resources around them.

We have come to a point in our history where we can no longer survive in competition mode. The quest for money and power has almost killed our species, not to mention the plant and animal kingdoms and Gaia (Mother Earth) herself.

It is only through nurturing ourselves and the planet that we can begin to heal from the destruction this competition has caused. It is only through cooperating with our fellow beings that we can bring about solutions to the problems currently plaguing us. 

It is only through connecting to each other through our hearts we will know and understand the way.

The Day Of Atonement

Beginning at sunset tonight (September 22nd, 2015) and ending sunset tomorrow (September 23rd, 2015), Jews the world over will be celebrating their New Year. Called Yom Kippur, it is also known as the Day of Atonement. Traditionally, it is the end of a ten day period where believers are supposed to repent of all their sins in order to make themselves right with God.

I have seen and heard the word broken down a little differently that resonates with me a whole lot more; At-One-Ment. Today is the day to become One!!! For me, that means looking at all those barriers we have placed upon ourselves to keep us insulated and apart from everyone and everything else and doing what we can to remove them.

Separation is an illusion. We are taught we are independent entities who need to rely solely on ourselves, but this is not true. We are connected in unseen ways. This is why the energies we put out into the world always come back to us.

Take some time today to identify those barriers that separate you from your fellow man. Maybe the issue is money or culture or race or sexual preference or any number of things. Look beyond the labels to the person within. Recognize the light that is there. Allow that light to enter the light that is you and feel that connection.

We can fix the world on this Day of At-One-Ment. We just have to remember our connection. We just have to remember that we are truly all One.

No Man Is An Island

The Importance Of Dreams

Dreams are funny things. They contain seemingly random people and events that make absolutely no sense (and quite often openly flout the laws of nature). They leave us confused and asking how we came up with such strange thoughts in our sleep. Why do we have dreams and why are they important? Dreams are our sleeptime connection to God/Source.

Even though we don't always understand dreams, they are very important to the human psyche. People who don't go through regular sleep/dream cycles begin to have mental breakdowns. Dreams are our subconscious way of working through issues and problems that occur in our daily lives. Quite often we receive insights at some level. In our sleep we are not burdened by the confines of our day to day world so our hearts are more free to explore the unlimited knowledge that is Oneness.

There are times when we have dreams we just "know" are prophetic. Typically, these dreams are knowledge that is so important for us to have they come through in our sleep. If you are awake and aware in other ways, these sorts of dreams will back up what your conscious heart connection is already telling you.

Understand that dreams are there to make sure all of us have some connection to God/Source, whether we consciously seek it or not. Pay attention to those dreams you remember. Chances are they will reveal information that could change your life!

Focus On Connection

This morning I feel like I am sitting on a powder keg. Right now, everything seems calm and relatively normal. However, it feels like it would only take one little match to set everything off in flames. It is for this reason I would urge you to focus on your own personal connection to God/Source today and in the days that follow.

Take the time to get out in your environment. Feel the earth under your feet. Get a sense of the rocks, and trees, and water, and everything in your environment. If you happen to be in a city, take the time to sense the buildings, the street, the cars and people. Allow yourself to be very aware of what goes on around you. Be intentional about it.

As you begin to sense individual things, allow yourself to focus on the energetic interactions between yourself and whatever object you are focusing on. Feel the connection and interaction between it and yourself. Ask if there is anything important you need to understand.

At times of great change, it is important to understand your connections to all things in order to gain the wisdom and insight those connections hold. When you feel your connection, you are able to see solutions where many people can only see the problem. You become the answer.

Problems are only problems when you don't have solutions. Remain connected to God/Source and you will have the answers you need.

Connecting To Nature

I spent a great deal of time outside when I was a kid, especially during warmer months of the year. There were two trees in the yard of the home I grew up in. The one in the front yard was a maple tree that turned a magnificent red in the fall. The tree in the back yard was a huge black ash tree. It's dark and rough channeled bark is still etched in my mind even though it has been years since I've seen such a tree. There were a few rose bushes my mom had planted in the side yard beside my driveway. Behind the garage there was a huge lilac bush, and on the shaded side was a patch of lily-of-the-valley that would appear every June. The rest of the summer that same flower patch was home to perennial spearmint. Many were the days I would lay in the grass and study the movement of the ants or the lazy way the fluffy clouds moved through the sky.

There has always been something about nature that called to me. Even though my current yard is extremely small, there are times I feel the need to go into it, sit in a lawn chair and put my bare feet on the grass. There is definitely something powerful in the physical connection we all have to Gaia (Mother Earth). Scientists have even discovered that physically connecting to the ground has an antioxidant effect on the body and can help the body heal itself.

On a spiritual/energetic level, allowing yourself to being open to the energies of Gaia and nature opens you to the love and abundance available in the Universe. Just as a mother gives everything she has to make sure her children have what they need, Mother Earth supplies all those things we need, including inspiration. Connecting the Gaia not only grounds a person but can also have a calming effect.

The process of connecting to nature is simple. I find that sitting in one location gives me the opportunity to explore the individual energies of what is around me in a little more depth, although walking in nature is also therapeutic. Allow your mind to wander to all those things that draw your attention. It might be the grass, a rock, a particular tree. Notice the color and shape. How does it make you feel? What does it make you think of or remind you of? There are no right or wrong answers here. Different people will see different things and connect in different ways. Don't judge the thoughts that come. If something comes to your attention, your awareness is kicking in. Allow the process to happen.

The more we take time to explore the gifts that Mother Nature bestows on us--the more we take the time to be thankful for those blessings--the better able we are to connect with all the blessings and gifts the Universe has in store for us. Make it a point to connect every day. You will feel much more energized, loved and grounded when you take the time to remember the natural world around you.

The Fight For Control

This morning I read a blogpost written by Kerry Cassidy of Project Camelot which discussed some of the recent information put out by David Wilcock and Corey Goode on the Blue Avians. (Blue Avians Layers of The Onion and Thoth Returns) I have to confess, I have not been all that interested in following the information although I know a great many people who do. What Kerry points out in her post though is definitely on the path of truth. Basically, she addresses the fact there are many groups that are all vying for control of the world and that we need to use our discernment before jumping on this bandwagon or that bandwagon. The truth of the matter is, no one group is going to get it totally right because all these groups are self-serving in some way.

There is a huge worldwide battle going on for control of planet Earth. It is not a war per se, although there are some wars going on at the present time that are connected to this power play. It is a behind-the-scenes playground of moves and counter moves. It contains all the drama of a soap opera, including things like arranged power marriages, spying, and even murder! The stakes are high as the world has abundant resources. Make no mistake. This battle is a winner takes all scenario.

Take a closer look at the world's financial system. The western banking system, which is run by an extremely evil cabal, is on its last legs. The past few weeks have seen huge drops in markets in China and Europe because everything is tied together worldwide. The only reason it still seems to be floating is because they now have sophisticated computer technology that allows them to manipulate the actual statistics. They also still have control over the mainstream media, so they can keep a large portion of the problems out of the public eye through distraction stories.

Those of us who are awake enough can see these problems. We can also see things going on in the background that give us hope for positive change. For example, a good many people see the BRICS bank that is opening up independently of the western banking system as a good thing. The question we need to ask ourselves is, will it truly be better, or are we just jumping from the frying pan into the fire? (Or are we jumping into another frying pan? A more likely scenario I believe.)

We have all been programmed to wait for a savior. We have all been conditioned to believe there will be some outside force that is going to come in and make everything right. Religion does this to us. Politics does this to us. Even fairytales do this to us!

The reality is, the fight for control is not about the Rothschild/royals/Vatican cabal overpowering the Rockefeller/Bush cabal. It is not about east overcoming the west. It is not about capitalism versus communism, Christianity versus Islam, or any other fight we have been trained to do battle in. The real fight for control begins inside ourselves. Apathy has been our worst enemy. Because we have chosen to give up our own power and allow others to take control, we have chosen to be taken advantage of.

It is time for us to become aware that control begins in the heart. When we connect to all that is we recognize what it is we came here to do. We are able to follow our own personal part of the plan. We come to the realization that we are here to take back our power and use it to create a better world. The future is up to each and every one of us!!! Set aside your apathy and take an active part in creating a better planet!!!

Preparing For Collapse

Regardless of the fact that the powers that be have managed to prolong their stay in power, change is coming. There is not much you can learn in the mainstream media yet, but the collapse is on course if you follow the signs. Greece is key here because once they are officially declared bankrupt and pull out of the Euro, the other EU nations (and the banks they prop up) will all have to declare bankruptcy as well because their economies are based largely on derivatives, which are not actual assets but the promise of future assets. Once this happens, the dollar will also collapse as this has been used to prop up the same system.

That said, the powers that be have done a really good job over the years convincing people we need their system. Through use (and monopoly control) of the mainstream media, they have given us working memes that prop up their system. Remember the collapse of 2008? The biggest meme here in the US (used to justify the bank bailouts) was that the banks were "too big to fail".

Let's take a look at "too big to fail". It was thought that if we let the big banks fail, our nation's economy would totally sink. All the big businesses that the banks prop up would also fail, leaving people jobless and destitute. The irony of all this has been, the banks received more money to gamble with (after gambling and losing all their previous gambling money). Corporations continued to hemorrhage jobs while paying their bigwigs million dollar salaries. The rich continued to get richer, the poor continued to get poorer, and the middle class became smaller. The fact of the matter is, job creation is still based largely on small businesses that had absolutely nothing to do with the financial mess in the first place. All their economy is designed to do is take more and more from the little guy. Don't believe me? Google Libor scandal and Forex scandal to learn how the banks are literally manipulating interest rates and the markets in order to pocket more loot than they deserve. (And none of the bank CEO's involved in these scandals went to prison where they belonged!!!) We have been sold a bill of goods where nobody pays except We the People!!!

That said, living through such change will not be easy. For a while, it might be difficult to access the luxury items (that may not seem so luxury here in the US) we use every day. Things we import from other countries, like coffee and cheap clothing and electronics, will inevitably become more costly. On the positive side, jobs will inevitably be created as we become much more dependent on ourselves to produce the goods we need right here in our own country.

There are many people out there who believe there are funds that have been set up out there for years that will head off the coming crisis. While I would like to believe this (and I do believe funds are out there), accessing them will not be as easy as we think. We have been taught in our society to watch for saviors that never actually come because the real saviors are we ourselves. The process of change will not happen overnight because there are way too many people who believe the myths the powers that be have encouraged to keep themselves in power.

Now, more than ever, survival for everyone will be dependent on living from the heart. We need to use what assets we do have to help those less fortunate. We need to make sure everyone has enough food to eat and their basic living requirements met.

Even more importantly, we need to tune in to our hearts for the wisdom and knowledge that comes from connection. When we ask our hearts what our next move should be, don't question its seemingly random advice!!! Following inner guidance does not always make sense in the beginning, but as events begin to play out you will see how this action falls into place!

The end of society as we know it does not have to be a scary thing. The powers that be want us to be scared because our fear will cause us to keep them in power. Understand that the breakdown of something we have always known allows us the opportunity to create something much better in its place!!!

Use this time of transition to clear away the debris from old, worn out system and build a new society on a bedrock foundation so our children and grandchildren can live healthier, stronger and more prosperous lives!!! Our future is entirely dependent on our actions. Choose to make the world a better place for all!!!

The Importance Of Sleep and Dreamtime

Did you know we are "connected" when we sleep? It seems somewhat incredible when you look at it through the mind's viewpoint, but it's true! Honestly, most of us are probably more connected when we sleep, and I'll tell you why. Sleep is that time of day when we all let go of our minds and allow our hearts to take over!

The two deepest phases of sleep, Theta and Delta, are perhaps the most important. For me, these represent the critical times in the sleep cycle when we are most connected. Theta perhaps gives us a little more connection to our bodies, but it is still a highly connected state. Delta is a state where we completely let go of ego and allow ourselves to embrace the energy of Oneness.

Do you try to make sense of your dreams, distorted though they seem? Subconsciously, we all know dreams contain awareness. There is information to be gathered when you take the time to decipher those meanings. Most of the time, dreams help you work through the everyday problems and traumas that occur.

However, sometimes dreams can be more prophetic. Most of us have had deja vu sorts of experiences where we have seen things in dreams that occur at later stages in our lives. It can even be over silly, insignificant things, but it does occur. Note these dreams can help reveal direction and purpose in our lives. Particular care should be exercised when these dreams are experienced.

For me, dreamtime is one of the most important and active parts of the whole day. People who do not sleep and do no go into regular dreamtime literally go insane. The reason is clear: sleep was designed to be one sure fire way to make sure we all connect at some level. When we find ourselves in a total state of separation (and cut off from the source of our strength), we become debilitated.

Our true power lies in our ability to connect to Oneness. Accessing this power on a regular basis is largely something bestowed on us through our sleep cycles. Take the time to make sure you are getting the sleep you need. Not only will you be physically better, but your spiritual life will be better as well!!!

The Importance of Connection To the Divine

I have recently had a very dear friend become upset with me because he sees me as having "changed my tune" about exposing evil. Honestly, the original incident was far enough back that I don't remember all the details. I do believe he came to me with questions trying to resolve some things about his job that didn't resonate with his heart. Because of all my recent posts on Facebook exposing darkness to the light, he has now decided it have done an about face from how I had responded to that earlier inquiry. Maybe I have changed my tune. Like I said, I only vaguely recall the topic in the first place.

There is nothing wrong with sharing a problem with a friend and discussing your concerns. Often it helps to talk things out and get them off your chest. The thing is, sometimes we allow what others say to effect how we think and believe about the topic at hand. This is where we all make mistakes, and yet we do it all the time. We look for answers outside ourselves.

If there is one thing I know, it is that listening to the advice of another person can be full of peril. The advice may be faulty. Your interpretation of what the other person is saying may or may not be accurate. My point here is, you are not asking for answers from the One that speaks to your heart. You are looking for answers outside yourself.

If you want the real deal answers, you have got to inquire within!!! The only way to get accurate information is to develop your own personal relationship to the Divine and ask and listen from that place. All other information is questionable!!! I only have to look at the road I traveled with Jeff Lundgren and company to see where listening to the advice of another can lead you!!!

I am human. As such, I do not have all the answers!!! I make mistakes!!! If you have read anything I have written in this blog I am glad to be acknowledged, but my ultimate goal is not to become a guru or spiritual adviser. My goal is to help you remember the importance of having your own one-one-one connection to God/Source/Creator/Universal Intelligence!!!

The best answers are waiting for you within your own heart. Inquire there first. Take time to listen to the answers. You will find your life will become much more smooth and free flowing when you allow your connection to the Divine to take precedence in your life.

Transparency

We live in a world where transparency is supposedly the ultimate goal. In reality, our world is anything but transparent. Our mainstream news is based on made up truths designed for their entertainment and shock value. Education is not used to enlighten but to mold people into worker bees for the good of those who consider themselves elite. Our sophisticated PR machines crank out all our pro points while glossing over or hiding the cons. Darkness and secrecy abound.

This condition of non-transparency is allowed to exist because we do not think with our hearts. Our understanding is limited to our experiences in this lifetime and the information we pick up through the five physical sense (sight, hearing, taste, touch and smell). With limitations such as these, it is no wonder the wool is so easily pulled over our eyes! Those who rule and enslave us wish us to continue on in this fashion so they can continue their non-transparent ways (all the while telling us transparency is the ultimate goal). 

Thinking through your heart allows you to connect to the Divine, and in doing so the doors of all wisdom and understanding are opened to you. The only thing required of you is asking the question. If you ask with your heart opened, you will be able to instantly go to where that specific information is located. Easy to do, but difficult to understand if you spend most of your time accessing your brain. Thinking through the heart is a very different mindset than thinking with your head.

True transparency can only come when one no longer has the ability to hide information. 

It is time for the world to wake up from its slumber. Transparency and understanding are necessary if we are to transcend the mindset that brought our problems on in the first place. In the evolution of mankind, transparency is key. 

Learn to think with your heart and nothing can be hidden from you.

The Things We Learn From Children

My life has been a bit stressful lately. Money concerns. Bipolar disorder and depression. Some days it can be hard to get anything done with the walls of my problems closing in on me. Today was definitely one of those days, even though I tried to spend some good quality time at the park with my granddaughter.

Tonight it caught up with me. I sat with my face in the computer just surfing the web, hoping to find something to distract me from the chaos that is going on in my own life. My husband had the movie "Frozen" playing in the other room for my granddaughter to watch and he was with her so I didn't need to concern myself with what she was up to.

Still, somehow she sensed what was going on with me and kept coming in to check on how I was doing. This little imp of a person won't even be two until July. She can't talk much and she gets frustrated easily. Even with all those impediments, she could still sense that something was up with Mimi. She wanted to play. Sit in my lap. Read books.

Finally she pointed to the rocking chair next to my desk. When I asked if she wanted to rock she vigorously shook her head "yes". I sat down in the rocker and she climbed in my lap. 

As I sat with her back to my chest and rocked, I felt her spirit comforting me. I felt her love. Tears I could no longer hold in streamed down my face as I wept silently. She looked up at me briefly as if to say, "It's okay. I understand." I felt the tears release most of my anxiety of the past few days.

And in that moment I appreciated who she is in the world. Yes, she's a very cute little squirt, but I saw her as so much more. The soul that she is is so much bigger than her 20 months displays. It is brilliant. Strong. Powerful. Full of light and love and intelligence. 

It is so easy to connect to the heart--connect to the One--when you are a small child. Most days I believe they are so much closer to God than I am. My granddaughter easily sensed my need and did what she could to help me take care of it.

It is on days like this when I know we can learn a lot more from children than we, as adults, could possibly ever hope to teach them.
