That’s A Wrap For 2014

 

image

2014 has been a very special year for me, and there have been huge changes in the world.  I look back and I see that a lot of healing has to happen to bring the world energies back into balance.   To do that healing, we each need to work on ourselves.  We are the ones that make a difference.

Every day, I look around, and I am amazed that the Creator still puts together such beautiful sunsets, skies full of twinkling stars, birds that sing the most beautiful songs, and all the other joys I find everyday. 

I wish each of you a year filled with light, love, joy, and peace.

Namaste.

Angels Speak - Take Little Steps

 

image

The Angels say that often, we try to do too much or we try to take steps that are impossibly big because we expect instant gratification.

This message is to remind us all that we need to work through the process and that we need to take small steps to achieve our goals.  As the saying goes, one can only put on one shoe at a time.  It is the steps that condition us to be strong enough to hold the goal, once we achieve it.

To get to the top of the stairs, one can only climb a step at a time.  You can try to take two or even three, and often then, you will trip and fall.  This little illustration shows us how important steps are. 

Namaste.

Mother Nature Speaks - Beautiful Space

 

image

As the New Year comes closer, my mind goes to the beautiful spaces that I have seen.  These are my go-to spots for meditating or for going to recharge my energies on a day that is constantly draining.

Mother Nature says that in a beautiful space, the following things happen:

  • The thoughts that make your body sick and cause depression are gently pulled from your body.  In its place, you are given new energy.
  • The smells clean out the congestion of the trauma of working. You breath easier.  Your lungs fill with air.  You feel the peace.
  • The quiet soothes your mind and slows it down.  You feel the quiet and know that you are closer to your self and to Creator.

Namaste.

Angels Speak - Keep a Clean Mind

 

image

Today, rather that talk about Christmas, I want to share a philosophy that has been serving me well.  Keep a Clean Mind. 

For me, that means not getting caught up in someone else’s drama, rants, taboos, values, or judgements.  Those are the mud and dirt, and smelly things that make up dirty feet.

Rather, I let the sound of birds, or the sound and smell of the ocean, or even the sound of the rustling of leaves, bathe my mind when others are “carrying on”. 

I wish you peace and love and joy.

Namaste.

Angels Speak - Be Love

image

Sit and be still for ten minutes.  In that ten minutes, think of all the people that you have shut out of your life because …. they were mean or they made you angry, or they were not like me, or they did not agree with me, or, any of the reasons that you have come up with.

Love is the only way.  Therefore, if you have resistance to loving and accepting someone, then, you will not move forward.  You will stay mired in the same things that you complain about holding you back.

Take a break and do something else.

Come back and sit in meditation for ten minutes.  In that time, contemplate the concept of love.  What does love feel like?  Does it have a taste?  Have you observed what you thought was pure, unconditional love?  Can you love like that?

Most of us want compensation for our love.  That makes love conditional.  It is not love.

Namaste.

Angels Speak - Life Philosophy for Winter Solstice 2014

 

image

Keep moving.  Stay balanced.  Stay grounded.  Look up to the Stars. Sing. Be in service to something outside yourself.  Bend. Sway. Find the rhythm of the energies within you.  Like the ocean, the energies ebb and flow.  Stay within the flow.  Life is easier. 

Namaste.

Angels Speak - Describing Life

 

image

I believe that there is more to life than we engage with.  So often, we expect life to be within our construct, or our control. Mother Earth, the Universe, random acts, and even weather, can change the way we perceive life. 

The easiest way to deal with life is to roll with it.  Walk with grace and ease.

Spirit Speaks - Nature is Part Of Me

image

As we move through the next several weeks, I know that keeping grounded and being in Nature will help me to cope with the mixed energies of those around me.   For me, December is a happy time.  For many, it is a time of great stress and of anguish and anger. 

When you feel that stress hit you, find a few minutes to walk in the park or by the river or lake or ocean. .  Lean against a tree.  Sit on a bench and be still.  Le the World talk to you.  Mother Nature has lots to say.

Namaste.

Angels Speak–Understanding Patience

When we walk into a situation, we often cannot wait for it to be finished. We tap our foot, or our fingers.  We fidget. We complain.

I love this poster.  Attitude is everything.

Angels Speak - In Motion

This poster reminds me that sometimes, we get going so fast that we cannot stop.  And, some people never get started.  It is a wonderful thing to be so happy in life that one just keeps moving and growing and loving.

Angels Speak - Life is Fast

 

image

The topic of our discussion at the table was how fast everything seems to be moving.  Microsoft puts out new software about every six months on the ERP systems.  New smartphones come out fast and furiously.  New TV shows are given six weeks to make it or they are canned.  Kids grow up quickly. Even the Earth is revolving a little more quickly than it did ten years ago.

As things speed up, the process can wear us down.  People like to be able to move at turtle speed sometimes.  It is hard to move at racing speed all the time. 

How do we cope with this intensity?  There is not a perfect way.  Each of us needs to find our way to move through the fast times.  For me, meditation in the morning, ten to fifteen minutes, and ten minutes at night helps me to slow down.  During the day, I do Still Breath, where you breath in, and hold your breath for a count of ten or so, and then breathe out, and hold for a count of ten.  Repeat for at least three rounds.  This gets rid of the tension that attaches to your body during the day.

Namaste.

Angels Speak - Thoughts On Failing

image

This quote resonated deeply for me. Failing or succeeding is in the eyes of the person walking the action, not in those that observe the action. 

While this might seem cryptic, I mean if I run a race and beat my own time by several seconds and yet do not win the race, I may have failed at winning the race but I succeeded in improving what I could do.  I succeeded!   

Sometimes, we do not see how we have been succeeding because we focus on the failing.  We need to change how we observe, and we need to have faith that we always succeed in some way.  Our faith and an attitude of gratitude will keep us from failing.

As long as we are in service to loving kindness, which is a great recipe for living, we cannot fail.

Mother Nature Speaks - A Blessing Prayer From Nature

 

image

When the time seems to be rushing past you, that is the time that you need a beautiful blessing prayer from Mother Nature.  This prayer lets you tap in to the energy of the Earth that is timeless.  It is something that Buddhists use to energize themselves.  Our Earth Ancestors used Nature to cleanse themselves.  Having a garden is like having a blessing, and yes, it is Nature. 

The Sun and the rain represent part of our spiritual nature.  They bring about Earth changes, and often, changes in us.  Time and time again, I find that my best ease for stress, sorrow, or tiredness, is a walk with Mother Nature.

May you feel the love in these words.

Angels Speak - What Should You Do Today?

 

image

What would I leave undone and be okay with, if I died?  I really did think about this.  Mostly, it was work in my daily job.  This made me think about all the things I want to do.

My list is not that long.  I don’t call it my bucket list.  I call it my FUN List.

  • Finish my several quilts
  • Have a Vegas weekend with my sisters
  • Swim with the dolphins somewhere
  • Walk with a wolf
  • Work with an elephant

Whether I get more education, attend conferences, or do anything that takes away from me time, seems to fade away. 

Where are you in your journey to have FUN.

Angels Speak - No Excuses

image

Gotta love the practical message in this poster!  Making excuses is an easy way to deflect responsibility from one’s self and to blame others.  (See Monday’s post)  Accept that you have to do “something” and that you have made that commitment. Accept that you cannot always meet commitments as there are circumstances beyond our control.  However, own up that you “did not do…..”, regardless of the reason.  It is going beyond and the feeling is quite freeing.

Spirit Speaks - Step Beyond

image

I saw this picture and loved it!  How cool is it to be able to step through a portal into the beyond?  We all know that this picture is a metaphor for life.  It is about moving beyond:

  • jealousy
  • greed
  • anger
  • racism
  • fear
  • control
  • manipulation
  • guilt
  • blame
  • regrets
  • grievances
  • self doubt
  • intolerance
  • pettiness
  • mean spiritedness

And the list goes on.  Add to it.  The list has emotions, attitudes, and actions on it.  

As the picture shows, when we move beyond any of these life hurdles, we move up and beyond that limitation. 

What a wonderful world!

Spirit Animal - I’m Hungry

image

The Wolf will go to any lengths to provide for her young.  Part of human kind on the other hand, would rather buy alcohol, drugs, or cigarettes, then find food to feed their young.  The puzzle of life is what causes this kind of selfishness in humans.

Wolf will scrounge and go hungry herself.  She understands that the future of Wolf kind is not in the elders but is in the young.  They need to be nourished and trained.  They need to be cared for.

What will happen if we rewire the human super conscience to change from exploiting children to caring for children?  Shall we collectively, consciously send out this message to see what happens?

Wolf thinks we should.

Angels Speak - Deal With Fear

image

Recently, it seems that people are talking about being worried or being afraid of “something”.  There are many changes happening.  People are losing jobs. However, many are seeing this as a good thing and moving on to getting better jobs.  People are seeing interest rates rise.  This is a good thing because spending should slow down. Each of these things is not something to fear. 

How does one get over fear?  Here are a couple of tips.

  1. Trust yourself.  You know in your heart what is best for you regardless of what the experts say.  Use your timing, not theirs.
  2. Research but do not get caught up in the perfect answer.  There is not any perfect answer.  Look to Nature to see how imperfection always is perfection because it is unique.
  3. If opportunity knocks, pursue it.  The Angels, or The Universe, or God, has placed this opportunity in your path.  Don’t go around it.
  4. Remember that everything takes some effort.  Do not be afraid to put some hard work into something that interests you.  You do not know what that hard work may bring you.  It may be connections for other opportunities.

Namaste.

Spirit Animal - Orca Dives In

image

We never really know what we can do until we dive in and do it.  Orca comes to remind us that being fearful and holding back from doing things is a form of laziness.  Doing new things and pushing the envelope of where you are comfortable causes us problems from time to time.  Yes, it takes more effort.  Yes, the effort sometimes hurts, especially if the effort is physical.  We need to move, to grow, to experience.  This is part of why challenges come our way.

Orca tells us:

  • The waves and current are mostly on the surface of the ocean.  Beneath, it is much calmer.
  • It takes strength to dive deep and swim in the calm.  It takes more strength and effort to swim in waves and current.  One gets exhausted faster.
  • Coming to the surface for air gives one a chance to look around and to experience what is on the horizon, above in the heavens, and to rejoice in the ability to move between experiences.

Namaste.

Recipe–Black Beans and Rice

 

image

More and more, I find that processed food is unsettling to my stomach.  The food that tastes the best is what I prepare from scratch.  This is an easy recipe to make in the crock pot.  And, as you get creative, you can add and subtract ingredients.

 

Ingredients

· 1 pounds beans, black, dry

· 7 cup(s) water

· 1 medium pepper(s), green, bell, coarsely chopped

· 1 1/2 cup(s) onion(s), chopped

· 1 tablespoon oil, vegetable

· 2 bay leaf

· 1 clove(s) garlic, minced

· 1/2 teaspoon salt

· 1 tablespoon vinegar, (or lemon juice)

· 6 cup(s) rice, cooked in unsalted water

· 4 ounce(s) pimento, sliced and drained

· 1 lemon, cut into wedges

Preparation

1. Pick through beans to remove bad ones. Soak beans overnight in cold water. Drain and rinse.

2. In large soup pot or Dutch oven, stir together beans, water, green pepper, onion, oil, bay leaves, garlic, and salt. Cover and boil for one hour.

3. Reduce heat and simmer, covered, for three to four hours or until beans are very tender. Stir occasionally and add water if needed.

4. Remove and mash about 1/3 of beans. Return to pot. Stir and heat through.

5. When ready to serve, remove bay leaves and stir in vinegar or lemon juice.

6. Serve over rice. Garnish with sliced pimento and lemon wedges.

Spirit Animal - Secret of Life

image

I love the question, “What is the secret of life?”

Yes, it is a big question.  It has many answers.  I read in one of my books that the problem with humans is that they always look down instead of looking up.  They watch for rocks and stones and holes and things that could trip them up.  They watch from fear.

If humans looked up, they can follow the Sun, the Moon, the North Star, the flight of the birds, and watch how the wind blows the clouds.  Looking up brings us guiding messages.  Looking down all the time slows us down.

Yes, tripping and falling may cause a delay, however, there is much to be said for learning to pick yourself up time and time again.  Babies learing to walk do not look down.  They look forward and up.  They fall.  They stand up again.  They persevere.  They grow.  They are fearless.

I wish you fearlessness.

Namaste.

Mother Nature Speaks - The Strength Of The Trees

image

There are lots of shifts in commerce, inter country politics, and in weather that have happened this past week. Many individuals are wondering if the recession in Japan will hit North America.  At the end of the day, everything is a process that leads to something else.  To worry it, as a dog chews on a bone, does not fill the belly, or bring comfort. 

What is needed at this time is a strong faith, in what ever your belief system.  Above all, we all need to be flexible.  I saw this poster and thought how apt it is for describing how we humans need to be during the turmoil.  I wish you the strength of the trees.

Spirit Animal - Life On The Rocks

image

Neil Diamond sings a song called “Love on the Rocks”.  The first verse is:

Love on the rocks ain't no surprise
Pour me a drink,
And I'll tell you some lies
Got nothing to lose,
So you just sing the blues, all the time…

As this picture shows, in nature, love and life is always on the rocks, the land, or the ocean.  Sometimes it is even in the sky. 

In this case, life on the rocks is about getting out of the water.  In spiritual speak, water represents emotion.  So, getting up on the rocks is getting out of the emotions.  Rocks represent being grounded or being practical. 

The animals are taking a break.  They are looking around and taking time to smell the seaweed.  Life is good.  Life is. 

Namaste.

Angels Speak - A Prayer for Strength

 

image

Some readers have asked for a simple prayer or blessing or mantra that they can say to help them be strong in very trying times.  I like this beautiful blessing from Chief Dan George. 

It speaks to the things that plague many of us – sadness, the aching to find beauty in something, acknowledging the tears that we cry, and why we need silence.

My suggestion is that you either write out the words, or print this, or put it on your phone so that you can say this silently four or five times a day. Say the blessing for yourself first, and then for one other.  Over time, add more people to the blessing.  Notice how the blessing makes you feel.  Be grateful for it.

Namaste.

Mother Nature Speaks - A Time For Everything

image

This beautiful poster makes me think about work and the pace we seem to be  expected to keep.  We are always in a hurry.  We brush off family and friends.  We lack sleep.  We do not value what we have and we want for more.  We are focused on STUFF.  The more stuff that we have, the more that we need to carry that responsibility of having STUFF.  It weighs us down.  It causes us to put on weight.  We become consumed with maintaining STUFF.  We hurry and hurry, and we grow weary.

Take one day, and try to move with the flow through the day.  Leave the hurry and the worry behind.  It is difficult to do.  How does it feel?

Angels Speak - Don’t Stop for Fear

image

Fear has been coming up a lot in conversations at work, in the discussions that I overhear at lunch in the open area at the food mall, and even in interviews on the radio.

What is going on in the world that is causing people to focus on the fear instead of on the goodness that is happening in many places?  Is it a hysteria that is being promoted by the media?  By religion? By politics?  Or, is it that great, group consciousness that realizes that there is a big change happening.  It is so big that no one really has a handle on it, and yet, everyone is feeling it. 

One of my teachers said that fear is the absence of faith.  Not the religious kind of faith, although that counts, but faith in a greater existence beyond what we know on Earth.

Mother Nature Speaks - Shades of Blue

 

image

Often, when we see a scene in Nature, we stop and reflect on “things”.  It may be life, work, kids, spouses, or family.  For many belief systems, the color blue is associated with truth.  In a scene like the one above, the TRUTH of thoughts is triggered.  Shades of blue indicate the various levels of truth. 

Really, what is true is individual to everyone, and will depend on the level of spiritual development that the person has achieved.  Someone who is extremely advanced or a the Ascended Master level will tell you everything is true.  They say that when you think something is false it is because you do not see the truth in all things. 

I think that the shades of blue help us to focus on what is important.  What do you think about when you look at this picture?

Angels Speak - Prayer On Peace

 

image

From Native American Prayers www.ronpaulforums.com

Yesterday was a reminder that PEACE is what everyone craves.  However, the biggest opponent of peace is greed.  Perhaps we need to expand the prayer to ask that greed diminish until it no longer exists. 

Unfortunately, we see greed at work, at home, at sporting events, and on all the media.  We cannot see peace when we cheer footballers for pummelling one another, or cheer fights at hockey games.  Each time we do, ticket sales go up, and the pride of competition feeds greed.

I wish all peace.

Spirit Animal - Being The Black Sheep

image

Do you have black sheep in your family?  What does that mean?  The poster shows us the black sheep looks different from its siblings.  That is a wonderful thing.  Black Sheep shows a reaching back to a different set of genes.  This trait in Nature keeps our species strain quite powerful.

If someone has labeled you the black sheep – take heart.  You may be a rebel in your family’s eyes.  However, you are striking new pathways for the family and community around, and that comes up behind you. You are powerful.

Angels Speak - No Need For Fear

Sometimes, fear feels like an ocean. It is so big and the waves seem to come and wash over you.  You feel like you are being swallowed or drowned.

Angels Speak - Believing In Yourself

 

image

This poster is a great reminder that others will never believe in us if we do not believe in our self.  More importantly, often even when we do believe in our self, others work against us because we do not follow their belief and “they” cannot be wrong.  What a strange world!

Spirit Animal - Herd In Motion

image

Spirit Horse Speaks:

“We are at a time of the Great Herd.  We see it.  As a Herd, we know to protect the mares and the foals.  They are the future.  Yes, we will lose some to the natural course of events.  We stallions do not turn on our off spring and kill them or abuse them.  We work to give them life.  We do not make war on our own kind.  We set boundaries and share meadows and great fields.  We drink at the lake with the cougar and the bear.  We are the model.  Heed this well.”

Blessings.

Spirit Animal - Sink or Swim

image

This picture tells such a story!  Little Elephant was so brave when he jumped into the water.  He did not know how deep the water was because the bottom was hidden.

All of a sudden, the Earth was pulled out from under him.  He felt so afraid.  There was nothing he could touch, except, all that water.  He could see his Mother.  She always protected him.  Why did she not help?  He could see the shore.  However, he was so afraid that he could not move. 

Baby Elephant shows us ourselves, our fear.  Sometimes we are so fearful that we are stuck.  We do not know how to reach out for help.  Swim.  Hit for land.  Ask for help.

Blessings.

Spirit Speaks - Something

 

image

Spirit Speaks - Wishes

image

On Tuesday, I had somebody say that they wished they were me.  I was flabbergasted!  And, I was curious.  I asked why they wanted to be me.

The answer was, “Well, your life seems so perfect.  You don’t really seem to have to work hard for anything.”

I started to laugh.  I work very hard.  A lot of my hard work is behind the scenes, however. To keep up to date on technology, I read many blogs and newsletter (and sometimes I just skim them, focusing in on things that interest me), and download software, or take online courses. I have two big dogs that need walking and some play time everyday.  I write one blog and contribute to another.  The list goes on.  Sometimes, even when I am tired, I “do” and the tiredness lifts.

I use my story as an example of how people perceive a situation, without having any facts.  It seems some people decide that something is a certain way, and then create the story to support it. I am flattered that someone thinks my life is easy.  It confirms that that person does not hear me complain.

It might be interesting to ask people around you –not close friends – if they think your life is easy.  And, is there anybody that you might wish to be?

Blessings.

Spirit Speaks - Are You On The Uphill or the Downhill?

 

image

I am always grateful to those who share their stories, not just the stories that they write to sell as fiction or self help; I mean the stories that they share about themselves.  The Poster above comes from the famous “Harry Potter” author. 

If someone who has hit rock bottom can come back as a multimillionaire over a period of seven years, then each of us can achieve this type of movement – uphill.  However, as Rowling points out, she had to do the downhill thing, first.

I have been trying to decide if I am on the uphill or the downhill.  When I do the life line test, I am on the uphill.  Yippee!

Where are you?

I had a very busy work week this past week and had to put off several things that I wanted to do with friends and family.  I was feeling somewhat sorry for myself.  One of my friends sent me this poster.

I realized that my business life was dictating my whole life this week.  I checked with my friends and heard the same thing from them.  It seems that all of us are out of balance.  Life is too short to stay out of balance.  I am making changes.  Are you?

Notes from Judy - Destiny and Fate and Career

 

Fate is what we resign to, while Destiny is what we work towards…

modified quote from Rick Jarow, PH.D.’s audio book called, “The Ultimate Anti-Career Guide”.    You can order this from the website for Sounds True.  (http://www.soundstrue.com/shop/The-Ultimate-Anti-Career-Guide/470.pd)

As we move through life, we all question why we are doing the work or career that we seem to be locked into.  Many people do make career changes. We see people make up to three career changes in their lifetime.  However, it is a difficult process.

The ANTI-CAREER GUIDE talks about the spiritual process involved in making career choices as well as the practical requirements for careers.  I found the meditations very thought provoking.

If you are in a place of chaos around your career, you may find his set of CDs very helpful.

Spirit Animal - Marmot Whistles

image

Every time that I hear a high pitched whistle, I think of the Rocky Mountain Marmot.  Marmot is like a big squirrel crossed with a gopher.  She and her pack live in the higher altitudes of the Rocky Mountains, up and down the west coast of North America. 

Marmot is very shy.  However, if she thinks that she can trust you, she and her babies will come as close as they dare, and then whistle for a handout.  Marmot has a variety of whistles.  Each whistle, like the words in English, have a different meaning.

The evening whistle is my favourite.  It sounds of running through the rocks, scrounging for food, and of the smell of lichen and spruce and fir trees.  It sings of successes and satisfaction.  Most of all, it sings of freedom to be a Marmot.

The whistles that Marmot makes remind me that not all of nature has been subdued and bullied into being a servant to man.  Good job, Marmot.

Blessings.

Spirit Animal - Dog Is For Everyone

image

We all know that Dog comes to us to “help” us in some area of our lives.  We may have had Dog so long that we have forgotten when and why they appeared.   When we ask for help, and we get a DOG, even the most disbelieving of a higher consciousness should be asking where did DOG come from?

What would happen if the Universe sent an ANGEL instead?  Well,

  • people around you would disbelieve and say that either you are crazy or that it is a plot by some government.  Or, worse, that it is a conspiracy.
  • you would have a very difficult time looking at them because their light is so bright, and they give off a lot of heat – like a furnace – so you could not stay near them for any length of time.
  • since Angels can’t swim as they hover, you can’t take them swimming, out on your surfboard, or in your canoe or boat.  Dogs are great swimming companions.
  • I have not heard of anyone taking their Angel for a walk, but I suppose it is possible.

Dog, the shining example of unconditional love, is the answer to giving people the HELP that they need.  Dog is the guardian angel.  Dog is the Animal Guide.  Dog is the Blessing, Spirit Animal, guided by Archangels and Great Spirit, letting their person roll in the Abundance of love.  How cool is that?

Blessings.

Beloveds -
A unique and visionary soul passed away today, Dr. Masaru Emoto.


Through Dr. Emoto's work with the consciousness of water, he brought new understanding to the power of thought, vibration, and our collective influence on the quality of our lives and creation.
It was Dr. Emoto's work that catalyzed the inception of Go Gratitude so many years ago, inspiring us to see the hidden messages in water, note the fractal nature of creation and embark on a path of grateful living.  His offerings have influenced the paths and lives in multitudes of beings, and will continue to do so for many generations.

Here is the message we received today, on his passing:

"Dear friends of Masaru,

Early this morning, Masaru has passed away. His wife was with him.

Since he became ill in Shanghai, he has received so much love and gratitude from his dear friends of all over the world. He was very encouraged and happy to receive your kind messages with love.

His last word was "Arigato". ("Thank you" in Japanese) We believe his last word was to you, everybody. He was so grateful for you
and thanked you all so very much.

He used to say, "Life is LOVE which is a gift from God and parents, and DEATH is gratitude for going to a new dimension".
So now he is in another dimension and continues to look over us warmly with love and gratitude.

We are going to carry on his mission of spreading the power of "love and gratitude".

We thank you very  much for offering prayers for Dr. Emoto, and please send your love, light, and gratitude to him once again.
With much love and gratitude,

IHM Staff"

Please join us in offering prayers of Love and Gratitude to our mentor, teacher and champion of conscious living as he flows into his next great adventure. 

Arigato, Masaru Emoto. Thank you for being a beautiful shining
crystal of Light.

Signed with flowing tears of Love and Gratitude,

As you yourself are water, no matter where you are, your prayers will be carried to the rest of the world." ~ Masaru Emoto
