Embodiment

Posted on by

For many years
we’ve been speaking
spiritual words
spiritual concepts
spiritual teachings.

For many years
we’ve been seeking
we’ve been the students
we’ve been the teachers
we’ve become the gurus.

Oh my Beloveds,those years are past . . .

Mental jargon
only continues to
spin more tales
and add to the many tomes
of enlightenment.

A shift in consciousness
can only occur
when you dive deeply
into the frailties
of your humanness.

It requires you
to fully embody
the words
the concepts
the teachings.

What you will discover
is that the human
has never been frail
it is only the mind
that is frail.

What you will discover
by diving deeply
into the human experience
is the true knowing
of Who You Are.

Compassion of the Soul

Posted on by

The deeper we go
within our selves
the more of our unconsciousness
is brought to the surface
playing out in full view.

As the dross is stirred,
the more raw
the more tender
the more vulnerable
we allow ourselves to be
in the face of what feels threatening,
the more easily it’s dissolved
by the light of day.

What is revealed
is the love and compassion
our soul has for us
with its all-knowing wisdom
ever guiding us
with the most gentle
ease and grace
if we allow.

Breathe deeply, Beloved
invite the revelations
of your soul
to introduce you
to the totality of
the Divine Love that you are
with its gentle ease and grace.

Moon Goddess

Posted on by

Goddess moon
pulling me into her dream realms
new creations
new birthing
new worlds
awaiting my awareness.

Pushing the pause button
putting life on hold
surrendering my full attention
to her wisdom
as she dreams
a new me into being.

Goddess moon
pulling me into her dream realms
with each and every
new moon
awakening me
to more of who I am.

Disillusion

Posted on by

Disillusion with life
is our awakening
to the awareness
that life as we’ve known it
is no longer our reality.

Disillusion
is the recognition
that it was simply a story
we created to experience life
with all of its aspects.

Disillusion
is our soul’s desire
to distance ourselves
from the illusion
that was never real.

Disillusion
is a gift from our soul
a gift of awakening
to embody the truth
of Who We Are.

Do not allow disillusion
to taint your illustrious life
with old perceptions
that no longer serve
and hold you captive.

Instead . . .
celebrate the dis-illusion
allow the dissonance
to dissolve of its own accord
by celebrating
new perceptions
of a new reality
being gifted to you
by your Soul.

Creating Freely

Posted on by

The first part of my life was spent
filling my mind with facts and figures
chocking it full of information
so I could speak with intelligence
to be accepted by society
as an integral part of the world

Until my mind became so overrun
with accumulated facts and figures
bursting with so much information
as the thought process sifted and churned
stuck in ceaseless circuits of judgement
that there was no space to freely ponder

The second part of my life
has been spent weeding through
a multitude of files of information
tossing antiquated so called facts
which by now were no longer fact
because the world is evolving so rapidly

Finally returning to the origins of life
when my mind was a clear palette
awaiting colorful brush stokes
to create openly and freely
to express my heart’s
pure Joy of Being.

Words of Wisdom

Posted on by

It’s time to go deep
into our hearts
to speak our own words
rather than lazily
continuing to pass on
the repetitive words of others.

You hold within you
the wisdom
of the stars
you hold within you
the wisdom
of universes.

Your words
do not need to be eloquent,
they only need to be
authentic and heart-felt
therein lies your wisdom
the wisdom of the heart.

Go Deep, Feel, and Speak!!!
Your words are important.

Creator of my Life

Posted on by

Early in the morn’
prior to opening my eyes
gently drifting out of dreamtime

I feel into the energies of my day
not anyone else’s day
not my family’s day
not my work day
not society’s day
my day

For I AM the creator of my life
by the choices I make in this moment
before I begin the day

I choose to savor
this delicious moment
savoring all of Who I Am

I choose to snuggle
more deeply in love with
the presence of my soul
I choose peace
from the inside out
for myself and all of humanity

I choose to listen
to all the cells of my body
singing with joyous regeneration

I choose to experience
a playful day of
ease and grace

For I AM the creator of my life
by the choices I make
in this moment
before I open my eyes
before I set foot on the ground
before the rest of the world
rushes in attempting to claim me

No one outside of me
has dominion over me
or how I live my day

For I AM the creator of my life
by the choices I make
in this moment.

Remember . . .

Posted on by

There is a sacred space
that holds the answers
to all the mysteries
that have been eluding us

That space is deep within us
just below our deepest breath
just below the surface of the silence
just below the clouds of confusion

That space is the space
that integrates the purity
of the human and the Divine
as our GodSelf

Breath deeply, Beloved
relax into the silence
of your Inner Being
and ask to remember.

Fully Available

Posted on by

So many pieces of myself
I have given away
in hopes that others may feel loved
in hopes others may find happiness
in hopes others may feel safe and secure.

In the end, I was left bereft and empty
with nothing of myself remaining,
and yet it has helped them not
for in depending upon me
they too have lost themselves.

And now that I have reclaimed
all of who I Am
as a whole and sovereign being
I am fully available to others
as the example
of a unique expression of the Divine
living life to the fullest
that they too may find it in themselves.

Kaleidoscope Pieces

Posted on by

Re-collecting all of my self
all the kaleidoscope pieces
that have separated off
to experience every possible
nuance of life

Buried deep within
needing to be resurrected
held, nurtured, and loved
after being shattered and bruised
by the throngs of life thrown at it
through duality’s door

Each precious piece
with its vast experience
is being gathered back home
embodied in the womb of the heart
enlivened by the spark of creation
to embrace its divine birthright
held in escrow by our soul

Once again whole and sovereign
sparkling brightly in harmony
with each creative expansion
to birth new realities
with our newfound
joy and freedom.
