Ending 2015 With Positive Thoughts!
The new year is upon us as we say goodbye to 2015.
I got brave today and decided to make a video instead of blogging my message to you for the New Year. My husband had some fun with it too. I look back on this year and see how truly blessed I am. I am looking forward to all the things waiting to happen in this next year of 2016.
I hope this video gives you giggles and food for thought.
Happy New Year!
May love always surround you, flow through you and guide you.

The Force Awakens
Today The Force Awakens comes early to some theaters. My family and I have been watching Star Wars episodes IV, V, and VI, leading up to today and it got me thinking. There couldn't be a more perfect time for them to release Episode VII.
I grew up with the original trilogy. I was just a young lass in the 70's when the original Star Wars was released. It all seemed so magickal, so new, and it created a culture and fan base that followed it through to Return of The Jedi, Episode VI.
In between Jedi and The Force Awakens, there were three more episodes that didn't seem to have quite the impact that the first three had on fans. As a Star Wars fan I will always consider Episodes IV, V, and VI the first three. With all of the special effects in movies today repetitively infused into just about every film, the new generations would not have the Star Wars experience that our generation had.
Besides the special effects, there was something more important about these films. We were introduced to the Force. This mysterious force inside a Jedi that allowed him to reach deep with in himself and manifest abilities that seemed almost magickal. Until then these powers were reserved for Wizards and Super Heroes, not everyday folk like a boy named Luke Skywalker.
Here was this young man who dreamed of being more. More than just what his Uncle Owen told him he could be. He didn't give up and the Universe aligned to bring him to his destiny. Yes, there were tragic events as there are in real life, but it's Luke's attitude and perseverance that keeps him hopeful and on the path of a Jedi.
We can easily find how this mirrors our time, not so far way in our own galaxy.
Let's just say, for arguments sake, that we all carry the Midi-Chlorians. Maybe that is not what we would call them, but lets say that they are not found in our blood, but our DNA. How much of our DNA is unidentified? They say about 85% of our DNA is useless, but is it? So I ask you is it so far fetched to say that we all have the force within us?
Among the turmoils we deal with in our time, we have choices. You can choose to feed on the negative- anger, pain, revenge, and be engulfed by the dark side or to choose love, patience, forgiveness and walk the Jedi path.
So today I ask you to believe in yourself and know yourself, because today The Force Awakens.

I Feel Like I Am Falling Apart.......And That's Okay.
The wind is blowing wildly outside right now and the air is crisp with the wavering of Fall and the coming of Winter.
I love the wind. She is my Siren calling me to hear her sing, beckoning me to let her tousle my hair and place cold kisses on my cheeks and nose. With this day being that of a New Moon, I am reveling in the magick of the this beautiful day and this very moment. Yesterday was completely different.
I started yesterday with joyous intentions. Our tree was selected the night before by my wonderful son, and we planned a festive day of holiday music and decorating. As my husband brought in all the holiday totes, I sat down on the floor and started to sort through them. I opened the tote that held the hats and stockings and as I pulled the stockings out one by one, tears started to well up in my eyes. Just as they are starting now while I type this, but my Princess is on my chair next to me as if she knows I need her company right now. I pulled the stockings out and looked at the names written in gold glitter; Lucky, Thunder and Tux. Those are the names of our kitties that have crossed the Rainbow Bridge over the last five years. I held one stocking in my hand and glanced down at it through a blur of tears. It was Dupey's stocking, we unexpectedly lost him late this past September. That one there had sent the tears falling uncontrollably, unstoppable.
I had four more stockings to put aside as I kept thinking about how at one time we had a wonderful array of Christmas stockings hanging from the fire place, 3 dogs, 7 cats, and 4 humans. It was always one of the high points of decorating for me. I started to feel myself longing to be back in that moment before we came here.
I pulled out the four stockings, Peanut, Lil Monster, Tommy and Fezzy. Tommy and Fezzy are hunkering down with my mother-in-law and her furry clan. She was kind enough to take them in when a move almost two years ago forced us to re-home some of our animals. We were renters now and had a pet limit that had to be followed. Monster and Peanut were re-homed to good people we knew. With Peanut we would find out months later that the person we left him with was not who he had led us and others to believe he was. We have no idea what happened to Peanut and it breaks my heart to think about it. All these emotions had taken me to a place that I just surrendered to. I submitted to the guilt, the self hate, the pain of having to make decisions, the anger that we couldn't make things work in the place we were before, the emptiness, the sorrow, the abyss, I succumbed and I let it all run it's course.
There were many more thoughts that contributed to my emotional demise yesterday that don't need to be mentioned here. Where I am going with this is - I let the emotions come to their peak and sat on the floor crying the rest of the day away. To some this may not make sense, it may not seem like something to make all those tears over, and that is OK. This was my pain, a path that I walked, things that I felt a great loss over and had not fully dealt with. So here it was again, in my face not letting me suppress it. So I owned up to it, I accepted it, I gave myself permission to cry over it until I could cry about it no more. I let it go and when I was done, when I could cry no more, I went upstairs to go to bed. I was dehydrated and exhausted, I released a lot of energy that had quietly been weighing me down.
As I laid in my bed I felt like I would never be happy again. I thought about my precious furry companions I still had and knew one day I would have to say goodbye to them too and feel this pain all over again. Then, at that moment, my little Princess Creepy cat snuggled her way under the blankets and started nibbling on my fingers. Boots then also jumped onto the bed and after purposely stepping on Princess, who let out a sound of disapproval, snuggled up by my head. I couldn't help but smile and decided to live in the now. I had my bad day, tomorrow would be better. And you know what? It was!
We are allowed to have bad days, they are part of the healing process.
May love always guide you and light always protect you.

Dont Give Up, You Got This.
Today I wanted to step out of my comfort zone and share a video with you.
I was inspired by a dear friend to do so, there for I have made a Vlog for my Blog.
I didn't know what was going to happen when I turned my camera on or what I was going to say, but did it. I was scared, thought I would draw a blank and just sit there staring at the camera. I didn't choke, well not much, and surprisingly the words began to come. I wanted to share that message with you.
But first, I want to share something else. Hopefully you all have special people in your lives who inspire you or have guided you to go deeper with in yourselves and seek who you really are. For me that person is a wonderful soul named Shakti. I can take up a whole blog talking about her and what she has done for me and can offer you, but instead I will post her link so you may go on your own discoveries with her if you choose to do so. I highly recommend that you do. You can learn about Shakit and her services at www.OneAscension.com.
I hope you enjoy this video. Have a blessed and wonderful day.

Why Yes, I am a Healer
What gives you the right to call yourself a healer?
I am sure that is what many people are thinking when I tell them what I do, who I am.
We are brought up to look at people with medical training as the ones who can diagnose us and prescribe a remedy to alleviate our pain. I am not a medical doctor, but yes, I am a healer.
I know for some people it can be hard to digest, but keep an open mind as you read, then it may all make sense. Looking at healing with a different prospective may help you understand why many people refer to themselves as healers.
Let us look at the definition of heal
As a child do you remember how your mother could make everything feel better? A little snug hug, a kiss on the forehead, or just having her hold you made the world seem so much better. She is a healer.
Have you ever called a friend or family member when you felt like things were falling apart and felt a little better after you talked to them? They are a healer.
Have you ever felt better by someones kindness, either in words, gestures, or touch, even from a stranger? They are a healer.
Have you been greeted by your pet at the end of a bad day and felt better after just seeing them or spending some time with them? They are a healer.
Did you know that you are a healer too? Everyone has the ability to be a conduit for healing energy. Have you been that friend who listened or just sat quietly with some one who was alone? Have you given a smile to a passing stranger and received a smile back? That was a healing gesture.
Everything that you do in your life that is done selflessly and with love, is an act of healing.
Now, you know that we are all energy and energy can run through us. I mentioned that you have the ability to be a conduit for healing energy, but what is healing energy? Now I am sure some poeple may disagree, but I can tell you from my journey to where I am now, healing energy is unconditional love.
When you move forward and ascend from ego, leaving behind emotions of lower vibrations, you become a lighter being and a better conduit for healing energy, which is basically unconditional love.

healhēl/verbgerund or present participle: healing

When you move forward and ascend from ego, leaving behind emotions of lower vibrations, you become a lighter being and a better conduit for healing energy, which is basically unconditional love.
Do you know some one who is always refered to as being kind hearted; the person who lights up a room when they walk in the door or the one person everybody wants to be around? The healing energy flows stronger through them becasue they most likely live with love in their heart, unconditionally. This permits them to allow more energy to flow through them. Negative things are like gunk that clogs pipes. Water can't flow as fluid through a clogged pipe as it could through a pipe with less build up and things get backed up right? Now lets look at what something like this would look like in your body. If you allow everything that is the opposite of love to flow through you, it gets stuck on you and you get clogged up with bad energy and then you become physicaly ill. Do you see where I am going with this?
The human body is a perfect machine, a machine that works as a whole in the physical and in the ethereal. What manifests in your energy field will eventually manifest in the physical. Did you know it takes more energy to be angry than happy? Your purpose here is too important to expel your energy negativley. So take care of what you allow to flow through you. Choose to walk with love in your heart. Choose love and I promise you that you will experience life in a whole new way.

From the Ground Up.
What do you do? You ground yourself.
You connect yourself back to Mother Earth, you ground your energy field.
Don't electricians install a grounding wire for safety? Isn't your body like a big circuit? Doesn't your brain fire off electrical impulses through out your body? Why wouldn't grounding make sense for you too?
When our energy is all over the place, so to speak, we can feel out of balance emotionally, physically and spiritually- it is all connected.
Remember the term "Down to Earth", how would you describe that kind of person? Easy going, laid back, peaceful, and lack of stress, they sound pretty grounded. So how do you ground? It's not complicated and there is not just one way to do it. Here are just few ways:
Earthing
Simply making a connection to Mother Earth with your bare feet. Stand or sit outside with your feet touching the ground.
Meditation
This doesn't have to be elaborate, it can be sitting in a quiet space, visualizing roots from your body connecting down deep into Mother Earth's Core, her Heart Center.
You can sit with a grounding stone at your Root Chakra.
You can hold a stone in your hand and repeat "I am grounded, I am centered, I am whole."
Find what feels comfortable to you.
Breathing
Do breathing exercises or just take a few long deep breaths and relax. You can do this also while holding a stone or placing it at your Root Chakra or between your feet.
What Stones should I use while Grounding?
Black stones are really good for grounding:
Black Obsidian
Black Tourmaline
Apache Tear
Black Onyx
Smokey Quartz
Smokey Quartz comes in a range of light to dark. The three stones to the far left in the picture are natural Smokey Quartz, You may come across some that are very black, they have most likely have been heat treated. I like to work with stones that are colored naturally, but you can work with heat treated ones if you choose.

If you would like to stay grounded I would recommend making a medicine bag, aka, Mojo bag, of stones to carry with you. This bag can also double as a protection bag.
If you would like one made for you, you can contact me with your request.
We will discuss how to protect yourself from Negative Energy in our next blog.
I hope this information was helpful. If you have a question and do not want to leave it in the comments section, you can e-mail me.
Have a wonderful day and Happy Grounding!
