Roar of the Heart

Posted on by

Hear the heart roar
’tis the lion’s heart
the heart of courage
the fearless heart
that knows no bounds
the fire of passion
the cauldron of Love
that continues to liberate
the soul’s lust
for a life lived fully.

‘Tis time to take heed
to answer the roar of the heart.

Our New Way of Being

Posted on by

Today is the Mayan Day out of Time
this is not just a one day event
this is our new way of being
being free of the past and the future
allows us to SEE things
as they really are
in the moment of Now.

In this moment. . .
I am SO grateful, so open, so joyful, so excited
and yet there are tears
for what is being left behind
I don’t choose to hold onto any of it
and yet there is an element of grief
as it all slips away.

As difficult as some of it has been
it has also been a precious part of me
and I know I will never come this way again
so I offer my gratitude to my human self
for having the courage to live fully,
the good and the bad, the light and the darkness,
the laughter and the tears.

I now step fully into All-That-Is
I live as the Love that I Am
I live as the Joy that I Am
I no longer need to work at anything
for I am the flow of Life itself
and if anything feels like work
I shall run as fast as I can
back into the Loving arms
of Who I Know my Self to be.

Stand Firm

Posted on by

The collective unconscious
is bubbling to the surface
through the murky waters of the past
playing out through archetypical roles
and the bane of karmic characters
the curtain’s pulled back on the global stage
revealing our interconnections
in relationship with others
relationship with self
and relationship with the Divine.

Remain present in the now
with your golden gilded heart
as you observe the antiquated stage
refrain from engaging
in the timeworn past
as the murky bubbles
surface and pop
effortlessly dissolving
returning into the illusion
from once they came.

It is your Love of self
and your Love for humanity
that has stirred these mirky waters
no longer willing to live captive
to a past that continues to recycle
the density of the accumulating silt
from the fear of the unknown.
’Tis time to Love yourself
and to Love humanity
through the chaos and confusion.

You are the Love
You are the Clarity
You are the Divine catalyst
that stands firm in the midst of transition.
Be gentle with yourself
be kind to one another
knowing that . . .
within your heart space
a New Earth is shimmering
in the wake of the still waters that ensue.

Expanding Realities

Posted on by

As our conscious awareness
of the totality of
Who We Are expands
our conscious awareness
of reality expands

With an open heart and mind
expanding realities
are no longer earth bound
by the limitations
of the human mind

The awareness
of our true GodSelf
expands our experience
to include simultaneous
multi dimensional realities

Those who have eyes, let them see
those who have ears, let them hear.

Diet of the Mind

Posted on by

The human mind is hungry for drama
for it makes it feel alive
thus it is constantly
stirring the embers of drama
to feel worthy of itself.

What if you introduce the mind
to a more enticing diet:
a diet of Love
without the need to protect
a diet of Peace
in sync with your Soul
a diet of Harmony
that spurs new creative flow
a diet of Joy
alive with laughter.

Then the mind would feel
tenderly nurtured
deliciously satiated
enthralled with the beauty of life
honored as royalty

And . . .
the incessant hunger for drama
would cease to exist.

Soul’s Innate Knowing

Posted on by

As I awaken on the morn of a new moon
I ask myself….
What is the basis of this new cycle of life?

Instead of feeling excited
about something new
I am coming up blank

My mind
is saddened by this
for it wants a purpose
it wants a new mission in life

Whereas my Soul says. . .
Ah, we are finally free of our persona
no longer needing to define
or present ourself in any particular way

We can finally live
with the natural flow of life
allowing our energy to draw everything to us

We can simply rest in the Knowing that
everything is working out
in ways our mind can not begin to fathom

We can rest in peace
the peace that passeth understanding
the peace that will eventually infiltrate every heart

And thus “we” initiate a new cycle
with the marriage of human and soul

Co-creating a new foundation
from which all things
effortlessly come into being
with our innate Knowing
steering this human vessel
this vessel of the Divine Human.

Living by Divine Law

Posted on by

It takes a very strong and courageous person
to walk away from the old way of being
away from what others believe in
away from what you’ve been taught
away from what you’ve believed in all your life
away from the habitual way of living
into the unknown. . .

It takes a strong and courageous person
to lead the way
aligned with your Inner Being
trusting your Divine Wisdom
that’s aligned with your GodSelf
rather than the subservient human
who has been blindly following the pack.

You are living via Divine Law
rather than the laws of man, which are transient
You are in alignment with All-That-Is
This is your Knowing…. This is your passion.
Take a deep breath and renew yourself
with the Breath of Source, the strength of Source.
Breathe deeply… and forge ahead.

Creating Anew

Posted on by

In ancient times,
knowing the planet was descending
as part of our soul’s development
the Wise Ones anchored many a ritual
passed down through generations
mother to daughter
father to son
often taken underground
safeguarded from those
who coveted power

At long last,
we have begun awakening
remembering our ancient wisdom
drawing together in circles
openly reenacting the rituals
in sacred honor of our earth
in sacred honor of our selves
honoring all we’ve gone through
as the Christ Consciousness
being reborn in each of us

And now BeLoveds,
as our consciousness expands
we are shifting into a new reality
where the old rituals
no longer hold precedence
they have done their work
holding us true to who we are
as we evolve beyond our origins
to a new way of being

We offer gratitude
of acknowledgment
as we put these rituals to rest
allowing these energies to return
to the ancient ones
from which it originated
blessing them for bringing
us to this pinnacle of emergence
to remember who we are
as creators of a new reality.

Let the Story Go

Posted on by

Stories of old
stories untold
stories repeated by the mind
holding you captive
to things of the past things
things that are no longer real.

Glean the wisdom
from stories of the past
and let the story go
to create a foundation
from which to grow
and continuing to expand.

This moment
this is what’s real
experienced in the here and now
allow it to pass through
enjoying its thrill
knowing there’s so much more.

The Erupting Heart

Posted on by

Everything is erupting!
Words are flying
energies are exploding
our feelings
our personal lives
and the world stage.

And yet, everything that’s erupting
is all about Love.

At the core of it all
it is the Heart that’s erupting
no longer willing to be ignored
no longer willing to be walled in
no longer willing to be contained.

For some this feels like
long-awaited freedom
for others
it’s like pulling off the scab
of a festering wound.

Healing requires love and compassion

Can you be
the love and compassion
the world needs right now
as all that is not Love
is imploding upon itself

Can you be
the love and compassion
the world needs right now
until it results in free-flowing
unadulterated Love for all.
