Teal Healing Newsletter for October 10/11 (Halloween 2011 – A Lightning Metamorphosis)

by Heather Green | Oct 11, 2011

The Tower – XVI tarot card

This month of October promises to be a power packed month of–you guessed it, IMMENSE change. So much in fact, that on some level by the end, you won’t remember what the beginning was like, or the essence of what you thought, felt, or how you experienced life. There are 3 portals this month, one of which we already passed through on the 5th (and are still feeling at this point). Another one comes with this week’s full moon. The last will present itself timely at the end of the month on the 28th and through the Halloween holiday. During this time and into the end of the year, time as we know it will be accelerating, many will experience a quicker or instant manifestation, and will be able to heal and transform in ways previously unable. And I am talking, over lifetimes..

This is just the beginning. But let’s talk about the portal we just went through on the 5th. There is a new energy on the planet reflected by the new planetary influences in the cosmos. Many of us are adjusting to this as I speak. If you feel off, disconnected, numb, or like you just want to zone out, watch TV, and munch on the snackies, you are most likely adapting to and processing these energies (not to be confused with true depression or isolation of course). These energies can cause a disrupted or chaotic feeling in your energy fields that will leave you wanting to distract yourself with familiar comforts. This is temporary, and my feeling is to just go with the flow for the time being, until it passes. Give your emotional and mental bodies time to catch up to the shift in your energy body. The above experiences, as well as restlessness or mild anxiety is also due to your being’s greater assimilation of this light and the current frequencies. However uncomfortable it is, know that if you are feeling this, it means your consciousness has expanded enough to hold the light, making you a role model for humanity in the coming new earth. There is a need to express or radiate the grids and codes you have come to bring forth in the world. These codes benefit the Earth, humanity, and animals/nature, and if we hold back on our release of the energies due to self-doubt, fear, ignorance or denial, our health, well-being, and spiritual growth could be hindered (as well as the world’s). A big part of expressing these codes comes with the territory of soul’s purpose–being able to tap into it and let it shine in your life. The soul’s purpose awakening is about delving into the depths of your soul, knowing who you are, and choosing how you want to express this part of you. That is essentially how these codes and grids are released.

This is also a time of stillpoint as we adjust and our systems are updated with the new energy of the 5th. We will experience a similar feeling around the full moon on the 12th, which will feel like a new or dark moon because it will bring with it a renewal and a replenishing energy we are so in need of. Like taking a vacation or traveling to new horizons, our souls and energy fields need this refreshment. This re-filling, magical and mystical moon is much needed in preparation for the portal on the 28th because of all the change it will bring. So be receptive to this healing and calming time mid-month. Take time for the inner stillness needed to contemplate, locate and identify yourself again (especially if you have been feeling not quite your self, like ever wonder who’s skin you’re in these days)? At stillpoint, your energy is reset so it’s more aligned to the universal energies leading to effortless, yet massive movements in spiritual growth and divine grace.

The biggest portal as I stated before is the 28th, but I must emphasize that the month of October is huge as far as transformation goes overall. The best symbol for this month’s revamp is The Tower in the tarot deck. Have you seen the card? What do you think of when you look at it? Picture a looming tower struck by lightning, victorian style, with two people thrown off the top. Water surrounds the tower and there is no land in sight. If you must, google the image to get the point. Without instilling fear–and this is definitely not my intent here, the tower warns that change has been broadcasted for awhile now…if we aren’t willing to step into in willingly, we will be thrust out of familiarity. The rug will be pulled out from under us so to speak. There is a major dismantling of the old, in our inner structures (physically, emotionally, spiritually, and mentally) as well as in our world. This is what may be the most painful for mass consciousness to see. Our outer world ref lects what’s going on within. But if we know this, we also know that this transition will pass…new structures will be built, as we are receiving and incorporating the new blueprints for the divine human right now (which affects ALL levels of our being, especially our biology). We are discovering and remembering who we really are, thus leading to harmony, peace, and love internally. So what comes after? The world’s reflection to us of what we are experiencing within. This is what we can look forward to. And for those of us who have already gone through this process of inner dismantling–we will be protected from the experience of this reality shared by mass. Can you believe that it’s truly possible for the realities of heaven and hell to be lived out on the same planet, depending on where you are in your spiritual growth and evolution? I have spoken of many of the ways the dismantling may look in our world today in other newsletters, but one that will bring great interest i s a cosmic uncovering that will make the spiritual aspect of the great shift on Earth undeniable to all of those previous doubters. It will bring much peace, comfort, and understanding to many as well, although there will always be those who choose to view the surreal and unimaginable as dangerous.

On a physical note, this time of assimilating the light and new energies brings more physical body pain, particularly digestive issues, including gas, bloating, heartburn, diarrhea and/or constipation, irregular heartbeats, dizziness and headaches. Yes, more of the same. I should also mention that this is why many unidentified “illnesses” that are falling under the labels of Lupus, Fibromyalgia, chronic pain or chronic fatigue are actually just the transformational processes’ affects on the body. There are many more dis-eases as well, and I still advise all to see a doctor just in case, but temporary bouts of many of the previously unexperienced or otherwise unidentified are just that. Just remember, we are processing lots of energy, so this is actually a GOOD thing, however we decide to treat or deal with it. Meanwhile, take time to rest and be tender with your bodies.

As time accelerates, we will become more telepathic and therefore more able to send and receive information from all over the universe (not to mention our own planet) thus overcoming time in its linear form. We can literally integrate knowledge, information, and communicate with lifeforms from the past, future, and everything in between with our intent, so don’t discount all the eerie or sublime experiences or desires that have occurred for you. Use this time to heal and transform like never before as you bypass the “normal” timeline. This is also why it might seem to you that there is never enough time in a day…or night. For myself, I moved to Arizona just a little over 2 months ago. It already feels like it’s been 2 years. We are getting closer to the reality of time in the 5th dimension. Can you comprehend how just knowing and using our telepathic abilities can change the world and affect our experience of time as we know it now? Just take a moment to think about it. Ins tant communication. Instant download of information and healing. Boom. Now you’ve just moved forward 2, 3, 5 or 10 years into the future with your knowledge, health, spiritual growth, career, and relationships. And just think about what you could create…

This is what I think is so exciting about this month. I have been feeling it all through the end of September. We now have the ability to instantly create and manifest like never before. Be aware of how your thoughts and emotions influence your reality. A big part of what I teach my clients is how to work with the mind and feelings to bring forth the life you truly desire. We have learned much about this in 3rd dimension. So it’s time to fully master it. There are a number of ways and methods. What I will say here is to use the tools you have to shift out of the thoughts and emotions that you know are creating negativity in your life, even the oldest of the old…those hurt feelings and betrayals that continue to draw the most unhealthy of people and circumstances to you. If you can’t shift it (in the moment), surrender to the feeling and thoughts because they will actually pass quicker this way than if you try to fight them. Next, seek out the healing you need in the form th at is appropriate for you. We are coming into a time when there will be a great awareness for mass that healing is necessary to create the world we want to live in. What comes after the healing is complete? The joy and play we have all been primed for, and this we can experience now as well. As we should!

Really, whatever we want to create or manifest in this world, whether it’s a new career/job, place to live, better health, more money, a new relationship, emotional well-being or inner peace or anything else, the quickest way is to bring in the frequency that matches how you will feel when you have it. We don’t have to focus on visualizing anymore, although we can. But the frequency is more important. Here is why: Let’s say you want a new home on a beautiful property because that will bring you stability and peace. If you just focus on visualizing the property and home you want, and not bringing the frequency in, you could get that exact home and property you desire, but with a landlord or neighbor who’s a tyrant, or circumstances line up that make it impossible for you to afford it in a year. Instead, if you bring in the frequency of peace, stability and security (which is really love disguised), at the same time putting out to the universe that you desire a beautiful home, perfect in every way for you, you will actually get the PERFECT home–even if it doesn’t look the way you would’ve envisioned. It will bring you the peace and love you have desired. So the main frequencies for manifestation are: peace, love & joy. Ask to bring these in (with the help of your guides) to create the life of your dreams.

Along these lines these days is the hot topic of abundance and prosperity. It is important to remember that prosperity is more than just having lots of money. If you have lots of money, but no time to relax, is that really having an abundant life? True abundance is good health, many healthy relationships and friends, happiness, peace, freedom, good food, and doing your life’s work to name a few. To bring more abundance into your life during this time in the new energy paradigm, it is about following your bliss. Do what brings you passionate feelings, joy, what is playful and fun, easy and smooth. This will attract abundance on all levels to you. If you know what this is begin doing or being it. If you don’t have a clue, remember what brought you a sense of joy and wonder–freedom as a child. If childhood wasn’t a good experience for you, imagine what would’ve brought you joy or freedom, or what you have always longed to do–if only…Then begin doing it, no excuses. If you ne ed to keep your day job, do just that, but spend your free time, even if it’s only a day off, doing what you love. Keep in mind that this does not have to be what you do for a living–that is more your life’s work or life’s purpose. We are talking about what you love doing, what feels joyful. It could be gardening in your backyard, or tinkering with old cars in your workshop, collecting rocks or antiques (and cleaning them up) or listening to music. Start this today. Begin dabbling. Living your passion and joy ties in with soul’s purpose which is what I discuss in more detail in my classes. It is the bigger meaning to why people are losing their homes and jobs. As they fall away, new ones become available. It is about finding out who we are behind all the masks, labels, and layers of identity. So get to know what moves your soul, what you experience while doing or being that helps you connect with your uniqueness, who you genuinely are, and your gifts. That will be your firs t steps in discovering soul’s purpose if you haven’t already.

Here are some more simple steps to aligning yourself with the new energies and bringing more abundance your way:

-Cut back or eliminate what you call ” hard work”, anything that involves striving, struggle, or dread. (Btw, dread is being experienced by mass consciousness right now so if you are feeling a heavy dose of it, know that it will pass or take the initiative and clear it).

-Take care of your responsibilities (like what you do for a living), but then spend time doing what you WANT to do, not what you have to do.

-Adjust your schedule so you have downtime or free time, time without an agenda. Sometimes people complain they never are able to relax, but their personal schedule is so jam-packed they have no room for it in their lives.

-Let go of any logical or common sense ideas on how to make money (unless it’s something you are motivated and inspired to do). Logic doesn’t work the way it used to in this time of the new energy. Many “logical” and commonplace jobs no longer exist.

-Spend time in solitude or stillness (like meditation, prayer or yoga). This will help you receive guidance from the higher realms, your guides, and your higher self on the next steps in your life and what will bring money or abundance your way. Be open to ideas you would’ve never considered or that do not make logical sense. Like the time of the full moon this week, the stillpoint brings an opportunity to feel that we are all parts of the bigger whole–separate, yet all one. If we can get this on all the important levels, we have learned the lesson of the new age!

This Halloween story includes the Energy Activations to assist in the assimilation of greater light and frequencies, adjusting to the shift in magnetics with comfort, activating and discovering soul’s purpose, healing all appropriate heavy, negative emotional/mental baggage, and bringing in the frequencies of peace, love & joy for manifestation and abundance. You will receive them as you read it, if you intend to, to the degree your soul chooses.

This story is in honor of and dedicated to my soul’s experience in another time and place, as well as to all of our loved ones who have passed over. May we bless them during this magical Halloween time.

It was mid 14th century in Wales. Ruth was just fifteen years old and had recently lost her family to a devastating fire that swept through their village. She was the lone survivor. After her extended family arrived, notified of the death of her parents and brother, it had been decided that she would live with her Aunt Betsy and Uncle Frank. But Ruth never liked the look in Uncle Frank’s eyes or the feeling she got in the pit of her stomach when he was around. She made up her mind to run away and live on her own.

Ruth’s mother had taught her much in her brief childhood. She knew how to grow food and run a household. She had also always been gifted in the intuitive arts. Like the feelings and impressions she had about her Uncle Frank, Ruth had a way with being able to read people. She could see into their lives, knowing things about their personalities, hidden desires and longings, and detecting skeletons in their closets.

At first she planned to move on to one of the neighboring countries, perhaps working as a maid or caring for a wealthy homeowner’s children. But one day a band of gypsies came by in a horse and wagon. She watched them from the corner store, as they set up camp in a nearby park. She felt drawn to them somehow. The wheels already starting churning inside her mind as she thought of how convenient it would be to befriend and perhaps hitch a ride with a group of wanderers. This way, she would never have to worry about being found.

It was easier than she thought. The lead gypsy, Tom, was a talkative horsetrader who was easy to get to know. He had an open, optimistic demeanor and his gentle, easy smile told Ruth he was safe. Ruth acted interested in his horse work, as well as the arts and crafts the others sold in the park. They were considered eccentric by the community, on the fringes of normal society, but not yet outlaws. Ruth turned a sympathetic ear to their predicament and before she knew it, within a matter of weeks when it was time to leave, she accompanied them on their travels to England.

Tom, a short, heavy set, gray haired storyteller, kept her company with his tales as they rode long, hard days and nights in the carriage. It was a journey she wasn’t used to and it took some adjusting on her part. Ruth had told Tom that her family perished in the fire, but that she had no living relatives. Afraid he would report her to the authorities, she asked if he would take her to England where a family friend lived. There she would look up this person, a woman she called Anastacia. She told him Anastacia lived in a city called Chester, conveniently closest to the border of Wales. From there, she knew she could always travel on by herself, but this opportunity would get her out of Wales fast. Tom believed her story and agreed to help.

The other gypsies kept to themselves, often eyeing Ruth suspiciously. Ruth looked at least seventeen, inheriting her mother’s tall, lanky build and good looks, light blue eyes with a sprinkle of freckles across her nose, which was to her benefit considering she had to look for work. She hoped this would deter the other gypsies from asking too many questions. As she combed through her knotted, flaming red hair, she wished she had a mirror. It had already been weeks on the road and she knew she must be a hideous sight.

The night before they were due to arrive in the destined city in England, there was trouble with the carriage. A wheel spoke had busted. They all needed to walk to the nearest park or unclaimed land. It was already dark and Ruth was beginning to feel afraid. At least all she had was a suitcase to carry, but even that got heavy as they trudged along on foot. Shivers went up and down her spine, as Ruth heard the owls hooting in the distance and wild predators like coyotes whimpering. She prayed they would be protected from any harm wherever they bed down for the night.

They finally found a place in the middle of a heavily wooded forest. Ruth had no bedding, so she had to borrow some from the other gypsies. Unfortunately, there was not enough room in the tent for her. This was for the adults, two married couples, except Tom. Ruth and Tom slept outside, under the stars. Tom fell asleep quickly on his on bed pad, and it wasn’t long before Ruth felt the reemergence of her friends, fear and loneliness. She could hear movements in the trees, like footsteps in the distance, and clung to the bedding in hopes that it wasn’t a hungry animal looking for his next meal.

At one point during the night, there was no avoiding it. She had to pee. She summoned all the courage she had, and finally slipped out of the bedding and made a run for it. After doing her duty, she saw a shadow of a human before her, reflected off the moonlight onto a tree. Trying to tell herself it was just her imagination, she couldn’t break through her denial when she saw the shadow dance across the tree again. This time there were two figures, much like a human man and woman. Ruth grasped the tree before her and tried to breathe. She remembered that tonight was Hallow’s Eve, the night of the dead, and as some of the town’s pagans called it, Samhain. Attempting to hang on to her sanity, she thought maybe it was a practical joke.

Then she felt the hair stand up on the back of her neck. She knew there was someone else behind her. She closed her eyes to prevent herself from seeing the projected image of the two people come into greater focus in front of her. Ruth suddenly felt a hand on her shoulder, and giving in to the terror, she let out a scream. In shock, she fell to the ground.

When she came to, she saw what appeared to be her late mother and father, except they were see through. They looked like some kind of optical illusion. Still in heart pounding shock, she finally put it together. Could it be real–the ghosts of her parents?

When she heard her mother’s calm and comforting voice, Ruth began to relax. They wanted to send their love, that they were okay, and that they were so sorry she had been left behind all alone. After a few minutes of reuniting, Ruth’s mother explained that there wasn’t much time. She had specific instructions to give her, to help her along with her life. She told her to find an office in Chester where a doctor named Herskel worked. He would let her work there, using her gifts of intuition to help others. She would also be able to see into the future more and more, guiding people in that way as well. But most importantly, she told Ruth there was an actual family friend who lived in the middle of England, a town called Norwich. Her name was Margaret. She needed to go to Chester first, to meet her, though. And the biggest perplexing detail of all–that the name Anastacia would help her find Margaret. As they continued talking, Ruth heard someone approaching from the other side of the forest. She turned around and saw Tom. When she looked back where her parents had been they were gone.

Ruth and the band of gypsies made it to Chester. Just as her mother had said, she did find a Dr. Herskel’s office right downtown. She introduced herself, and was able to get started easily and quickly, doing fortune’s for the townspeople. Herskel was a believer, and Ruth was happy to be making money, good money that is, and taking care of herself. She even lived in a little cottage behind his home, paying him with money she made in the office during the day. She spent weeks trying to figure out what her mother had meant when she told her Anastacia would help her find Margaret. She had no luck so far, and they had not appeared to her again to explain.

Over a month went by, and now Tom was asking her if she had found her family friend, Anastacia. Not knowing what to say, Ruth told him she hadn’t been able to locate her. She asked if they were going to a town called Norwich. Perhaps she got the town wrong. Lying, she said the town Norwich stuck out in her mind and that it was possible Anastacia was there instead. Tom looked hard at her before deciding he would take her to Norwich. After thinking about it, he figured it would be a good place for the rest of them to stop before they went on to Scotland.

That night she packed her things in the cottage and thought about leaving. She had grown to like this old town, even the colder, frigid nights as fall led into winter. She loved her work in fortune-telling, even if it was considered witchcraft by some. She felt sorry for those that saw her in secret, not wanting the common townspeople or family members to know, but she knew her work helped them greatly. Most of all, she worried about how she would make a living in Norwich. There was no Dr. Herskel there. Who would let her set up an office doing what she did? What if she couldn’t find work caring for children or a home? What if she couldn’t make enough money? Ruth started to cry when she thought of this and began to miss her family, too. She hadn’t shed a tear since they died. Instead, she had been focused only on her survival. She fell asleep crying.

The next day as she picked up some food at a local market, Ruth had an even greater surprise. She saw a law enforcement officer standing outside of the county jail talking with none other than her Uncle Frank. Yes, it was definitely him. Dark skinned, dark eyed and with that same creepy energy she could feel miles away. She could hear everything from where she stood. Uncle Frank told the officer that someone had seen Ruth talking to gypsies and that they had traced the tracks of the wagon here. The officer wrote down everything.

Without a second to lose, Ruth ran off to find Tom and the others. They were loading up, and Tom had concern written all over him when he saw Ruth. She explained in the calmest way possible, that she really felt like it was time for her to go. Could they leave sooner, today even? To her amazement, Tom said they were leaving now within the hour, that he had been planning to go out and look for her.

Relieved at another bout of good fortune, Ruth jumped into the wagon and settled into her usual spot. They drove off a few hours later, but before they could get very far, they were stopped. She stuck her head out the side of the wagon to see who it was and fear froze her stiff. It couldn’t be.

The officer hauled her off to jail. He told her Uncle Frank was taking care of business in a nearby city, but would be back for her in the morning. Then she’d be going back to live with him. Staying in the jail was no fun and no place for a child! At least they kept her in a bigger cell, away from the adult criminals. Ruth was glad the officer hadn’t asked many questions. She made sure to stuff her money away into her undergarments, just in case. Poor Tom and the others had been thrown in jail too, for helping a minor. Ruth didn’t know what would happen to them, but she couldn’t think about it. She needed to focus on getting out of here.

That night a black cat appeared outside her jail cell window. He slipped through the rails on the window, rails that a human could never fit through. Once inside, the black cat rubbed up against her, penetrating her gaze with his deep, green eyes. Ruth felt a connection to him that went beyond time. Then he walked through her cell and into the jailhouse area, where the guards were. When he came back, Ruth noticed he was playing with something on the ground, like a toy. She looked down and discovered that it was a key. Without hesitation, she fit the key into the lock of her cell. Quietly, she slid out past the guards who were both fast asleep.

Having no idea where to go, Ruth ran and ran through the night. Up ahead of her, she saw the black cat again, slick like molasses, a mystery like the moon. He looked back at her and met her eyes. Then he took off for the hills. She decided to follow him. What other option did she have? After what seemed like hours, with exhaustion setting in, Ruth saw a sign in the distance. It looked like lights from a carnival. She remembered Tom and the gypsies, and that most of their work was at a local carnival. Could this be it? Someone might be around this hour.

Ruth slipped under the fence of the carnival. There were a few lights on at a few booths. The cat led her on. He turned a corner and there it was. A house-like booth with the name Anastacia at the top, in bright neon lights. The cat stopped right in front of it. There was nothing else left to do. Ruth knocked at the door. When it opened, a witchy woman appeared. She had straight, long, jet black hair, heavy eye make-up, and wore a floor length, purple velvet gown. She was gorgeous and terrifying at the same time. A huge smile wrapped around her face. At first she explained that Ruth needn’t worry about the gypsies, they would be fine. She was married to the lead jail officer and he would let them go tomorrow. She asked her how she had managed to take her cat with her on this long journey. Ruth shook her head, confused.

Then she said, “I am Anastacia and I know you are Ruth. This cat belongs to you. Do you notice he doesn’t have a collar? He belongs to no one, yet he led you here, didn’t he?” Ruth nodded. When she asked what his name was, Ruth noticed a clock behind her that was just striking midnight. “Its midnight, of course.”

“My cousin is Margaret who lives in Norwich, said Anastacia. You are safe here until I can take you to Norwich. I know everything and I think you will understand. Afterall, I just saw a ghost.”

Happy Halloween,

Teal Healing Newsletter for September 19/20 (Rebirthing and the Fall Equinox)

by Heather Green | Sep 20, 2011

Mid-next week brings the Autumn Equinox, otherwise known as fall. As I look out my office window today, I feel the crisp and gentle breeze, the cool breaking summer’s heat wave that heralds this time of change. Beginning a new season is a perfect time to reflect, to look at where you have been and where you are headed. The themes of harvest, safety, hope, letting go, grounding, and self-illumination come up as we enter a new cycle in our lives and our world.

The first major theme of harvest is about enjoying the fruits of your labor, particularly all you have done during the flourishing months of summer, both on a literal and spiritual level. Take the time to notice all that you have available to you, physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually, to be grateful, and to learn from every experience over the summer (whether it be good or bad according to your ego). This is personal inventory time. As we head into this new season, it is time to tie up all loose ends, finish projects or studies, or heal whatever has lingered too long. This is a great time for having a celebration or feast in honor of the accomplishments or abundance you have acquired (again on all levels, no matter how big or small). You could plan a meal using the seasonal and symbolic fruits and veggies: grains, squash, corn, apples or pomegranates, apple cider or wine, and connect to Earth in this way. Or feel the joy and gratitude in a simple meditation to a cknowledge the equinox. Living in the world we do today, many are taking for granted all they do have, and just focusing on what they do not have. We all have SO much that we don’t appreciate in our lives–good health, friendships, money or jobs (for those that haven’t lost them), a roof over our heads, more than enough food that so much still goes to waste, sunlight, clean water, and spiritual resources. As we feel joyful and grateful over these, and with our intent, notice and acknowledge them, we attract more abundance to us.

As I touched on in the last newsletter, there are still many who are processing survival issues in the root chakra, feeling scared and hopeless. Mass humanity is working through the survival issues as a collective. But it is our responsibility as individuals to do our part in helping this process go smoothly and gracefully by working out our own issues with survival. Tap into your inner source of security, safety, and eternal life within your own divinity, the divine line that runs through you. Be present with this part of you every day, and eventually your external world will change, or you will know exactly what actions to take if necessary to receive the abundance that is your birthright. This is no time for victim consciousness. For all of those who have lived too long with fear, particularly fear of poverty (literally or on an emotional, relational, or health level), from all times and dimensions, activate the spiritual lessons of empowerment and love. You can do this no w with your intent, simply and easily. Keep doing this as often as necessary and you will receive the shifts each time, getting to the place where you will find the issue has passed.

The biggest key here is SELF-RESPONSIBILITY. As a culture, we are long overdue for learning and mastering this. It is no longer about anyone else, no matter what your situation is. It is no one else’s job to tell you what to do or how to live your life, or even to examine it. It is time that we all pick up the pieces and begin to sort things out within. How do you think you are doing? What is off in your life or inside yourself? What are some ways to make things right? We all resonate with certain healing techniques, practices, or life choices. As a professional psychic, I have people ask me all the time, where am I headed or what should I do with my life? My question to you is, what do you want to do? Where do you want to see yourself by the end of this year, next year, or 5 years down the road? We all have the ability to create this for ourselves. Don’t let what you think are your limitations or weaknesses get in the way. Find a way to work with them to achieve your dreams. For example, let’s say your dream has always been to be a doctor. Perhaps you think you aren’t smart enough or that the schooling will take too long. Look into why you want to be a doctor. Is it about helping others heal? Is it about your interest in medicines or healing devices? Look at specifically what it is. Then, follow a path that leads you to living the essence of that goal. You can help others heal in many other ways besides being a (traditional) doctor, for instance, as a counselor, energy practitioner, yoga instructor, Doctor of Chinese Medicine or herbalist. These don’t necessarily require as much time and book smarts. If its about the medicine, find a way to study that which sparks your desire. But it is also important to look at what you see as a weakness, because you probably have more of the book smarts and patience than you think you do, especially if this is your life’s passion. That spark of joy or passion that you feel when you think of what you would lov e to do tells you this is the path to follow. Bingo!

When we begin to feel safe and secure, hope can prevail again. This is another one of mass humanity’s issues right now, so if you are feeling hopeless when you usually do not, release it. If it is yours, ask your guides and the beings of light to help you shift it into hope. As we enter the time of fall over the next two weeks, the veils will be thinning to a degree that many of us will have the opportunity to hear our guides easier, as well as the spirits around us. This is true for great strides in spiritual and evolutionary development, so if you’ve been feeling more psychic and sensitive this is why. And it will continue…Divination will be easier during this time as well, and many who usually are not adept with these skills will get glimpses into the future. Ask for the messages that will help you achieve and maintain hope for where you are heading and as we get closer to the portal into the 5th dimension. With time and mastery, this hope will transmute into a knowingne ss. And then there will be no fear. I say this to help those who feel hopeless right now, because in reality there is nothing to fear. We are headed into a beautiful, harmonious, and peaceful time in history. It is why we have all come. Just remember not to buy into the events that may or may not precede it. This is just about the old fading away.

And speaking of fading away…the fall time is just that. Letting things fall away. Let yourself fall. What does that take? Letting go of control and what is familiar, and most of all, fear. Remember, we can do this with grace and ease, or it can be a struggle. Which do you choose? This autumn equinox also signals a time of even more letting go. Yes, more of that! Letting go of attachments to people, places, animals, and life circumstances. Look inside yourself now and ask, what is it that I really need to let go of that I have not been able to yet? All things must die before they can be born. This is what the time of fall symbolizes. It’s a preparing for death. All spiritual ascent requires descent first, and all those who look for light must first face their inner darkness. Have you really begun to look at those deep dark places yet? Or are you still trying to avoid it? There is no time for avoiding now, as mass consciousness is going through this as a whole as well, and th is fall is it. We must arrive at a balance before beginning the descent, but we must decide we are really going to go for it first. Do your part and make that decision now. As we come into the time of Libra, this balance is essential. My guides are telling me to encourage you to think of it like a mystery. Haven’t you ever been interested in a good mystery novel, sci-fi movie, who-done-it game or show? I realize this can feel different when its your own personal mystery, but at least view it the same as the experiences above. Because afterall, this life is really one big game, isn’t it? We have to be enough in our bodies to feel the truth of it, in order to really master the lessons, but at the sametime, we can’t be too plugged in or we lose our spiritual perspective. So my advice is, play the game. Be in the experience of this life, really feel what it means to be human, and simultaneously move the chess pieces on the board but know that it really doesn’t matter how things end up. It’s like the saying by Ralph Waldo Emerson, “Life’s a journey, not a destination.” When we get to the destination, it won’t matter, and by the time we get there, it’s just another beginning of a journey anyhow. Even the worst fear of all, death, can lead to bliss. Who says that if that is what unfolds for you or any loved ones, that something is wrong or off, or that it could’ve or should’ve been prevented? Most mystics and mediums would say there is usually no suffering after death. And again, if there is suffering, it is the soul that creates it. But without getting to deeply morbid, I really want to impart a message of comfort. Most of what we fear is suffering itself, not the object, person, or life circumstance that brings it about. So take the time to explore the basis of what you think the suffering will be. Is it really real or valid? If that person, object, or circumstance comes into you life, how do you know you will really suffer? Perhaps as you let go an d fall into a sweet surrender, new ideas, options, and inspiration will come to you that couldn’t before (because you were blocked by fear). As you sit with them, put them into action or inaction, you are becoming empowered. Now you won’t have to suffer. When we look at it this way, I think FDR had it right when he said, “There is nothing to fear, but fear itself.”

As we come back down to Earth, this fall is a time for grounding and centering. I spoke of the need for this in my last newsletter. As the Earth shifts, so do we, and vice versa. We cannot ground and be nourished (energetically and physically) the same way through her etheric field, so we must reground every few weeks or months as necessary (and as the shift continues). Ask the nature spirits and the spirit of your physical body to work with Earth and reground in a way that benefits both our and Earth’s evolutionary process as well as sustaining and supporting us. This will help with irritability, insomnia, anxiety, fatigue, headaches, hunger, weight gain, and muscle aches. I am getting so many questions about this from clients, that I am mentioning it again here. Drink lots of water and consume more protein to help with your transformational process. This will ease the above symptoms and keep you grounded. We can also take the time to ground this fall by walking in the woods , mountains, on a beach, or in an open field. Be present, viewing the leaves changing color, smelling the wood and pine aromas, feeling the Earth under your feet. The Nature Spirits and trees are working to help us anchor into our physical bodies even more as we transform during the shift. Notice them, sit with them, and enjoy their messages. You might receive whispers of guidance and self-illumination. The energy of the trees and Nature Spirits will also help to calm and protect from the chaos in the external world. They are a life-saver for our sanity during this time.

As I write this, the cicadas sing hymns to me from the Sycamore trees in the nearby, Oak Creek. Their choir is a reminder of coming together, teamwork, and that what we do as a group is in service to the whole, not for us as individuals, although we can be benefited here as well. We can take note of the importance of groups in our lives during this time, and how they can usher us forward spiritually.

Cicadas also role model to us the process of going deep within for transformation before being re-born. They bury themselves in the Earth and hibernate, usually for 2-5 years, and rarely for a decade or two, feeding off the roots of trees. When the time is right, they instinctually know to come out. This brings to mind the qualities of patience, right timing, and renewal. We can utilize these qualities in our own transformation process, harnessing patience and perseverance, but also knowing that it is up to our own soul to decide when we want to resurrect. So ask yourself, is it your time and you are delaying or holding yourself back, or are you pushing too fast, too soon? We can follow the example of the cicadas hibernation period and review our pasts, maybe even the last 2-5 years or a decade or two, discovering what needs to be transmuted. Like many cicadas in the southern U.S. coming out for the first time in 17 years this year, many of us will be reborn during this time. It might just be the first time in our lives when we can actually sing, delight, come together, and take flight!

AN ENERGY ACTIVATION IN AN UNKNOWN PLACE

This Energy Activation will occur for you if you intend it, to the degree your soul chooses.

Today’s Energy Activation will occur in an unknown place, a place of your choosing. Think of a beautiful place in nature, anywhere in the world, or in your imagination. The place can have anything in it, people, objects, or animals, be inside or outside, or you could be alone. But it must have trees and cicadas. Don’t worry, it doesn’t have to be a place where trees or cicadas naturally live. They will come to you anywhere you are, even if you are cozied up in a secret hideway or on the moon…Pick the type of trees you want surrounding you, and bring them into your place now.

For those of you who can’t think of their own special place, you can work with mine. I am out in the Arizona desert. But it is fall, so thankfully the weather is cool. I am headed up into the red rocks, making my way up each boulder with steps towards the towering monoliths above. As I walk the trail, I pass Prickly Pear, Mesquite, and Juniper trees. As I climb higher, I can smell the many Pine and Fir trees and the fresh scent of the afternoon’s rain. It is dusk, and the full moon illuminates my path. I now reach the top of the trail, a platform rock with which a panoramic view of the city is easily available. The lights of the city twinkle like stars in the distance. I am surrounded by the ancient, cathedral red rocks. This is a magic, crystal city.

I find a prominent Ponderosa Pine, and place myself under it. As I rest there, the Nature Spirits join me, and the spirit of the tree connects with me. I take a few deep breaths, and breathe in the beauty, feeling the joy and gratitude in my heart for all I have. I bring all that I appreciate to mind, and feel safer and more content than I have in a long time…In the silence, a peace permeates me. All fear of the unknown, fear itself, drifts away with the help of the spirits. I take a few moments to meditate with the Nature Spirits, the trees, and the spirit of this soaring Pine. As Mother Moon shines radiantly above me, a mystical feeling comes over me. I am reminded of times from the past, in this life and others…Times when I have triumphed and times when I had lessons to learn. Do any of those times resonate with what is going on in my life now? How about for you? As you meditate for a few minutes, let the trees help you self-illuminate. What must you face in your inner darkness? What does this have to do with the past 2-5 years, or even decades past? Look for connections, they are all there.

In a distant creek in the valley below, I hear the cicadas. They sing together in their community. In their own timing, the music crescendoes, and they all stay in sync. Let this activate connections for the communities and groups in your lives, for better balance and integrity. As cicadas are deeply connected to Earth through their hibernation process, they are working with you now, to connect to Earth for extra grounding and safety, support, and security. Earth is the source of most all of our resources, what we utilize on a day to day basis. As you do this, you receive love from her for all your hard work during the shift. Now send this love back to her in turn. She is the reason we have come this far as a collective on this planet!

Cicadas are insects that come out in the heat. When they emerge from their hibernation, they look for their mate. Feel the love inside for yourself, Earth, and others. If you are not in a partnership or marriage and you desire a special someone, with your intent now, ask for a healthy love relationship to come into your life. This is the time of bringing together soul mates and twin flames for the purposes of healing each other and our planet. If you have a beloved, just ask that the love you have together or within heightens to a degree that you can serve in an even greater way. You can also ask for new friendships, animals, or other types of loves to come into your life. Remember, this is a time to follow your passion and greatest dreams! Let them be ignited now.

Cicadas usually come out after approximately 2 years, which is again, the number that represents polarity and the need for balance. As we enter the time of Libra, this balance is essential for us as individuals and a collective. Ask yourself, what needs balance in yourself or your life? If you don’t have a clue, ask the cicadas to reveal this to you in their song. As they do, they begin to help you become more aware so you can make changes. Also, any karma keeping you in the trenches of duality consciousness is cleared, so you can move towards unity.

Now it is time to contemplate your rebirth. Are you ready? Ask the cicadas for help. They remind you that this is your choice, and you can always bide your time. What do you need to let go of so you can be ressurected? Ask the Earth, The Nature Spirits, and the trees to help you let this go. Bury it, or dispose of it in a way where no one else will come across it, and so it naturally disintegrates. You can do as a ritual in your “real” life if you choose. Even with non-physical or symbolic issues, you can write them on a piece of paper and bury it in a special place in nature, or burn it in a fire ceremony. Cicadas also represent magic, that you reap what you sow. It is time to receive the harvest of your labors, that which you have earned through your spiritual growth in this lifetime (that you haven’t received already). Begin your descent from the mountain in the desert (or head back from whatever place you chose). As you walk on your path or road, there is a gift that awai ts you. This is your harvest. Take it in with open arms. This might symbolize something that you don’t have today, but that is coming to you…just around the corner.

It is going to be a marvelous fall…

Enjoy & Many Blessings,
