Love is in the air, snowdrops everywhere, anticipation to see if the groundhog sees his shadow, and Chinese New Year! Welcome February! So many things to celebrate this month! I will start off with Imbolc, which is Groundhog Day or as the Christians call it Candlemas. I love celebrating this day as it is the halfway mark between the winter solstice and the spring equinox. The days are getting longer, and spring is slowly starting to show herself as Mother Nature awakens from her winter's nap.
Musings from the Editor
Next on my calendar is Family Day, a stat. holiday here on the 9th, and while I might not be with my family in person, I will hold them in my thoughts and give them a call. Valentine’s Day will be next up and I tend to show my love to those who are special to me each day, but a celebration is always looked forward to and this will be no different. A nice wine, some good chocolate and time spent with my love. Chinese New Year arrives on the 19th. I plan to purchase and place some of the beautiful red decorations around my home to honor the New Year. Fish dinner is a must on this day, to bring a surplus of good luck and money in the year. The last day of the month will see a new beginning as our great niece will be getting married to a wonderful guy. There is so much celebrating to be done this month that I am glad I had a quiet January! It truly feels like the energy has been renewed and refreshed. Just waiting for us to take our first tentative sip, then dive in with gusto. This month look for something new to appreciate and value each day. It is the shortest month of the year and will be over before we know it. Remember where there is love there is life, love is a feeling you can have towards life itself, not just for others, so love your life. If you don’t love your life, this is the month to change that. Sending all of you love! Brightest blessings to each of you this month! Namaste

With many looking to find that special someone to spend time with I decided it was time to come out about online dating!
should have a fairly good idea of what they really look like. They also might have fudged on the personal information form and could be years older than they lead you to believe. It happens! One lovely person told me they were 50 when in fact they were 67! YIKES! Imagine my surprise when we met for lunch. While they were very wonderful the age difference was just too big, on all levels! I was 43 at the time. Before you think I am age biased, I will tell you that the guy I finally did meet is twelve years older than me.
Online dating is a wonderful adventure. Where else can you fill out a profile and then start connecting with people from the comfort of your home? No need to get gussied up or spend money heading out to clubs. All that is required is your computer, an internet connection and you are on your way! Online dating works well if you are older and have been out of the dating scene for more years than you care to admit.
Which brings me to my next point, be prepared to be rejected. Hey, you are not going to like each individual you meet up with, and they are not going to like each individual they meet. Don’t take being rejected as a bad thing. Instead, think of it as wanting the best possible outcome. Both parties are looking for a match that clicks on all levels, to accept anything less would be settling, not the best way to have any relationship. Let’s face it to meet your prince or princess you might have to toss out a few toads! Be as gentle and honest as possible when turning down another. Perhaps point out that you want the best for them and you are not that person. Wish them well in their search and carry on.
I did try online dating and happened to find my wonderful partner in crime and love. When I set out on the online adventure, I viewed it as just that, an adventure. I was so glad I did! I was soon tuned into the different aspects of online dating and not all of them were, shall we say, wonderful, but they were eye opening and served to have me discover what I really wanted in a mate. I really feel online dating sites are the way to go if you are seriously looking for a partner. First off you get to email back and forth to get to know them a bit. You can get a sense of their humor, and often their life history as people tend to be open from the other side of a computer. If the emailing seems to go well, I suggest setting up a coffee date. Do not worry that it might be too soon. Remember this is an adventure, one that you hope will facilitate finding your prince or princess. If you hang back and stay behind the computer you will miss out on connecting with the energy of the person. Many people are not good with the new fandangle internetemail-chat stuff and are much better at presenting their awesomeness in person.
Have a positive attitude. If you think that people have agendas, are weird, are jerks, or are fake, then that is what you will attract. On the other hand, if you keep it light and look at it from the point of view of meeting new people who could be new friends, you will stand a better chance of meeting positive upbeat people. Finding a mate can be serious business if you are lonely, however keep it fun! Be in it for the long haul, after all you are selecting someone who you will want to spend time with, a long time with, the rest of your life.
My first advice is to keep it real. Be yourself, don’t try to “fit” in with what they are looking for because their picture tingles you to your toes. Think of it this way, both sides of the computer are looking for their “match made in internet heaven.” At the beginning of any relationship everyone is in what I like to call “being on our best behavior”, it is easy to go along with whatever is coming our way. After 6 weeks or so, your natural self comes barging in like a freight train, as does the other persons, this is our comfort zone, our true self that responds without having to think first. We want to show our best selves and we do, yet that is not all we are.
Oh on that note… know yourself and be prepared that you might not know yourself as well as you thought. Many have a checklist of what they are looking for in a mate, but I suggest you toss it out! Yes, you heard me, toss it. We are not purchasing a new vehicle here, we are looking for a mate. If we start our search with a check list and expect to have each box checked, we are setting ourselves up for failure. Besides, if we have a check list we never see beyond it. What marvelous person are we not getting to know because they have facial hair and brown eyes when we want clean shaven, blue eyed hunks? Life is constantly changing and while we have ideals about who we are, and what we like, we have not tried or experienced everything. What we like and who we are today can be drastically different tomorrow.
Also, be prepared that the pictures people post might not be current! Or they might look better in person than their picture. Although with today’s technology you can always video with the person on Skype or Facebook messenger, and 7

Be prepared to have an exit planned when you meet in person, just in case there are no vibes whizzing through the air. Don’t hang in there thinking it will get better if there is lots of awkward silence, but do ensure that you have made your best effort. Follow your gut! If it feels off, it probably is. A quick exit ensures that neither of you is wasting your energy on something that is going nowhere. Also ensure you go “Dutch.” For some reason there is still the “entitlement” aspect of having someone pay for your coffee or meal. Even in today’s society, some still think if they pay for your meal they are paying for a trip to the boudoir. There is nothing wrong with wanting to have a few passionate kisses if you feel drawn, or even taking it further, but, the choice is up to both people and should not be an expectation because one of you paid for the evening. Finally don’t expect that this person is going to change your life. Wouldn’t you rather they enhanced your life? You probably have been supporting yourself, have a close group of friends, and basically your life is perfect, but you would like a mate. Someone to share your life with. Remember that, when you are on this adventure. The life you have now will change somewhat, but the foundation should stay the same. Love yourself and your current lifestyle enough to know that you are not forsaking your life, but rather both parties are merging two terrific lives into one. Love is a many splendored thing, opposites attract, and hearts do get broken. Yet no matter what happens on the adventure, you will create some memories that will last a lifetime. Some you might want to forget, but eventually you will find your mate. Each person out there, if they want, has a special someone, timing is everything. If you are looking for companionship, which looks like love, take the chance on online dating. For me it was fun and led me to the right person, 9 happy years and counting!

I know it sounds simple and obvious. But what is it...really? We’re all looking for it whether we know it or not. We are all involved in some way in a desperate search to find out where it truly comes from and how we can form an unbreakable bond with it. Why?
novels or magazines. We create expectations and set up rules/ contracts based on our beliefs about what it ‘should’ look/feel like. Because these experiences of ‘love’ only seem to come from sources outside of ourselves and because we often see that we need to do something to ‘deserve it’ we tend to function in ways that will keep that love coming in, however far afield that may lead us.
I believe this to be the ultimate human quest. The journey of all journeys!
We experience an obvious dilution of Love which comes from a place of lack and is unsustainable for all. An easy example of this is someone who gives in order to get something in return (approval, recognition, reward etc.) – consciously or not.
What is the essence of True Love and how can we gain unlimited access to that? I remember the first time that I asked my Self this question. I was 16 and was getting off of the phone with my high school boyfriend as he slipped in the ‘I love you’ just before we hung up. I can recall the stunned feeling I had as I stumbled to form a quick reply of ‘I love you too!’. It was that night that I wondered to my Self ‘what is Love?’. I remember writing this question in my journal before I fell asleep that night with zero understanding or insight into how asking this simple question would affect the rest of my life.
Our challenge here is to move through the fear and conditioning and to let go of our attachments to certain outcomes. In other words, the practice of living in true surrender and in alignment with our highest paths and truest, deepest expressions. Choosing to align with our own personal energies and using our higher wisdom and internal guidance system to direct us towards our highest path – our most authentic life - no matter how challenging it may be at times. Choosing Love. To be Love, to share Love, to express Love, to align with Love, to explore Love, to receive Love, to experience Love – in all of its forms.
I’ve come to realize that my true life journey began that night; the unending search to discover the true meaning of Love and to experience the greatest expression of that Love in various ways.
We can all strive to experience Love in its purest form – which to me, is the perfect connection with all things - where energy flows from the deepest aspects of our being to the deepest aspects of all beings and vice versa – it’s in this state where we experience our sacred bond to all things i.e. ‘Oneness’ where the energies of pure joy and bliss exist. It’s in this space where the depths of our beings are infinitely expanded and fully liberated.
In my later years, my attention returned to this question while on the Big Island of Hawaii. The image I received was that of pure white light filtering through a crystal prism breaking into many different shades and colours. The message of that was, Love is the pure white light, we are the crystals, the Love that comes through us is expressed in many different ways and yet, it all comes from the same Source. The clearer we are; the more pure is the quality of Love that flows through us. And with our free will (taking into consideration our karma, preincarnation agreements etc.), we determine how that Love is expressed out into our experience and in relationship with others and the world around us.
To me, this is the ultimate journey. And this is what it’s all about. Remembering and returning to TRUE Love i.e. clearing our crystals... Questions: Where do you Self sabotage the experience of receiving pure Love? How can you clear your crystal and connect more deeply with the True Essence and experience of this Love? What is your experience so far with the truest form of Love that you can remember?
I understand the journey of Love to be the process of clearing away all of the things that are clouding our crystals and restricting our connection to that beautiful, pure light that is always present and awaiting our desire for deeper connection. Thoughts, behaviours, judgments, unconscious beliefs, traumas, painful memories etc. keep us in a perpetual cycle of denial and Self sabotage – leading us further into separation from the very thing that we all need/want most in the world - LOVE. WE deny the Self of Love! Why would we do that? Most either don’t understand Love and even more feel unworthy of it. There is immense confusion and disillusionment surrounding what it is and how we access it. We often think about Love and compare it to what we see in the movies, hear in the love songs and read in

A lack of self-love can lead you down many dark paths. You can feel incomplete compelling you to feel the need to be worthy by trying to please others or be “good enough”. Feelings of self-worth can lead to anger in which case you may isolate yourself denying the universe your beautiful gifts.
ative thoughts. To make matters worse, I woke up every morning angry and would stay in that state all day long. I especially noticed it while driving to and from work as my thoughts quickly became negative. Once I realize that I was on a path of destruction, I had two choices: (1) I could turn the situation into another reason to hate myself, or (2) I could see it as my opportunity to change. I’m proud to say I chose change! I surrendered to the pain of money issues and allowed myself to be broken open. Instead of choosing to stay angry and hopeless forever, I chose to let go and invite miracles to occur.
For instance, in my case, my lack of self-love for years led me to a deep bottom that later became the catalyst for my greatest change. I was a self-proclaimed achievement junkie, and I suffered from low self-esteem. My need for outside approval from everyone I met reflected my inner world of disapproval. I couldn’t love myself and didn’t know how to, so I needed the world to compensate for what was missing within me. I lost my connection to the Divine and forgot that I was already a perfection expression of God. On the outside, I seemed to have it all: the handsome boyfriend, a job in management, the fancy condo, and all the necessary trappings of a “happy person”---but on the inside I was a mess. Striving for outside approval and love led me to inner turmoil and a constant state of feeling overwhelmed and empty.
We all face this decision at some point in our lives. Oftentimes, hitting bottom gives us the opportunity to recognize that there has to be a better way. Hitting bottom was the greatest gift I received. My bottom became a turning point and a time for me to take all the necessary steps to turn inward and establish my own practice of love. And I did just that! I stopped shopping and stuck to a strict budget. One day at a time, I rebuilt my inner state of self-love through affirmations, prayer, mirror work, extreme self-care, meditation, journaling, and a serious forgiveness practice. In short, I took focused and positive action. I reignited my relationship to myself. Upon reconnecting to this state of peace I went through a steadfast spiritual process to forgive myself and chose to perceive myself as a child of God... already perfect!
When you search for your self-worth in external circumstances, you will never feel fulfilled and whole. Unless you start doing the inner work required for positive shifts, you’ll travel on an endless search, struggling to find “enough” approval and love. I was searching for love in all the wrong places. I even got a nasty addiction to shopping buying anything and everything I wanted and charging it to my credit card. Took a fancy trip to New York which I didn’t have the savings for, etc. I thought that buying things would make me happy, which they did in the moment, but after a few weeks of excitement over a new pair of shoes or a fancy purse, I felt empty and depressed again. My ego was looking for love and happiness through material possessions when in truth they only made me feel more lost and disconnected from my truth. Nothing could make me feel good about my life and my constant ignoring of my credit card bills was causing health problems.
Today I own business “A Clear Pathway To You”. I use my story to empower others, and have made it my mission to do so! I turned my problem into my life purpose, and today am a powerful example for the world. The ego works hard to keep us stuck in self-attack even when it seems like we’re attacking others. When we’re hooked into the ego’s perception of self, we often compare ourselves to others. Comparing leads to self-inflicted judgement and attack, however, having deep connections with family, friends, Great Spirit, including ourselves is the way to everlasting joy and harmony.
Then one day in 2007, I got a wake-up call that would change my life. As my boyfriend, son and I were driving down the road the muscles around my heart started tightening and I felt a panic of anxiety with thoughts of an on-coming heart attack. The muscles around my heart were pretty intense and didn’t seem to go away so I went to see the doctor and underwent some tests only to find out that there was nothing wrong with my heart. My doctor told that what I was experiencing was as a result of too much stress and that I needed to change my lifestyle to avoid having a heart attack or stroke. My immediate response was to blame not only my boyfriend but myself for allowing myself to get into so much debt that I couldn’t even look at my monthly credit card statements and would quickly shred them. I dreaded picking up the mail with visions of bills, bills, and more bills!
I hope my story empowers you to dive deep, transform your life, and reignite your connection with yourself and with God. Love, Light & Blessings,

The chakras, the energy centres or vortexes in our body, are gateways that create a connection between the physical body and the spiritual body. They also link you to the Higher Light Bodies, and – when you leave this sphere, be it with this physical body or without it – these chakras will still be there with you and evolve further and adapt accordingly to the next body. They are divine organs within you sustaining the circle of eternal life, in the same way as your organs and your heart ensure that the circulation within you remains active. Your chakras are responsible for maintaining the eternal Flow of Life within you, God’s Flow of Love, the energetic flow.
similar experience, these also can be seen as blocks which prevent us from taking on new experiences and jumping over our own shadow. The good news is that our souls have gathered enough lessons here on this plane that most of us can complete the game and go on to the next level – this is exactly what is happening in this shift of consciousness. So what many souls currently have on their agendas is to clear out all the old baggage that we no longer need. Part of this includes transforming these blocks from the old memories and clearing the chakras so that you can reactivate the chakras back to their full glory. Today our souls have unique ways of calling experiences into our daily lives which are designed to trigger those blocks and bring them up to the surface so that we can work through them and ultimately release them. Sometimes "normal life" processes can clear them, other times we need to be more active to clear them through personal and transformational work.
Currently the Earth and its inhabitants are experiencing a shift in consciousness from the 3rd to the 5th dimension. In spite of the current turbulences in the external world, humanity is nonetheless opening up to a higher knowledge, a higher potential, a collective awakening is taking place where we are recognizing our true selves and the need to upgrade and enlighten our current systems and ways of thinking.
In the transition to the 5th dimension, the chakras vibrate and radiate differently than in the 3rd dimension. Instead of 2 energy funnels front and back of each chakra, the chakras radiate light outwards which wraps around the body on both sides. This energy emanating from the chakras merge, creating a torus of energy around us. Then you can consciously merge the 7 main chakras together with the Alpha and Omega Chakra into one unified chakra, which we call the Unified Heart Chakra. This resulting collective torus centred in the heart then ultimately provides us with a protective cocoon of high vibrating light which completely surrounds us. The Unified Heart Chakra is an important step to fully reactivating and reconnecting us with what we call our Crystalline Light Body. And the basis for all this is the clearing and activating of the chakras as the first step.
Sometime in the past tens or hundreds of thousands of years, your own soul chose to participate in a particular experiment in physical reality here on Earth, whereby we all would collectively lower our vibrations and incarnate here in a very dense, physical 3D form. Unique was that we agreed to cut ourselves off from most of our natural spiritual abilities and our connection to the higher dimensions of light that we were quite used to, a type of amnesia, in order to "properly" play the game of duality here on the planet. This also included a significant downsizing of our whole energy system to make this experiment work, including of course our chakras. Before coming here, you were this huge, crystalline light being with fully glowing, activated chakras and an aura as bright as a sun. We also were aware that at the end of this game, we would come out of it and elevate ourselves back into a state of higher knowing, and when we do, our chakras will be even more stronger, richer and brighter through our sojourn here on earth.
Therefore, it is good when you take care of your chakras, as they will always accompany you. Feel your chakras. Feel when they are a little tired. Give them light and energy with the help of Light Crystals, with the help of the energies of the angels and masters who look after you. And when you get used to communicating with your chakras, they will be very thankful. They will always provide you with all the energy you need.
Our chakras can be seen as spiritual organs that have a consciousness. They have participated in all of our experiences over the ages and from many lifetimes, including all the ups and downs and the many lessons that this system of duality has offered us. Often the chakras have stored specific memories including the pains, shocks and tragedies from those experiences and these memories still affect us today. While in some ways the chakras wish to protect us from repeating
The co-founder of Litios Light Crystals, Angel Medium Antje "Kyria Deva" Eisele, channels Archangels and Ascended Masters, with Archangel Metatron being her direct guidance. In the following meditation, Metatron gives us not only an inspiring and powerful description of the chakras from the 19

spiritual perspective, but also gives us a bath of divine light which is nourishment for the soul and the chakras.
This is Metatron, the Radiant One. Out of the primordial spheres of the Glory of God I come into this time and space and touch your inner self with the endlessness of infinity. I bring countless angels of pure joy. These Crystal Angels are at home in the primordial spheres of creation. They receive the light from the all-seeing Eye of God and through this they create, they establish the first Light and Creation Crystals in the Crystal Spheres. The original building blocks of Creation exist here, since everything is essentially pure crystal in its original structure and form. The Crystal Angels manifest these primordial building blocks and forms of creation out of the light of the all-seeing Eye of God and send these out into the whole of Creation.
Lightlord Metatron explains the chakras in crystal clarity and from his higher perspective. The chakras are portals for your here and now in the spiritual spheres. Through your chakras you create vibrational connections throughout all spiritual dimensions. If your chakras are closed, for example blocked, you cannot take up contact with the light, the gifts of grace, the blessings from the lightful spheres cannot permeate you. You have cut yourself off from the stream of life. If they are connected to lower vibrating spheres through dark experience from the past as well as karma, then these karmic contacts are established and you wonder why unpleasant situations always appear in your life.
I, Metatron, regent of these crystalline, primordial spheres, come with great joy from my heart and pour the crystal water of the Holy Spirit into you that flows to you from the highest source of the Divine.
If however they are connected with higher light dimensions, with angelic beings and Ascended Masters, with Star Brothers and Sisters, then you are filled with love, light and joy and your life is transformed.
It is the purest, finest light crystals out of the highest beingness that sink into your aura and call in the original source, the purest crystal water, into your aura. They flood all with clarity, beauty, their original form. You are completely bathed in this crystalline stream that refreshes you and awakens the vital power of the Divine in you.
You yourself – your consciousness – is the keeper and master of your chakra portals – decide in every moment of your life to open them to the Light.´

The chakra flowers of humanity are often like wilting blossoms that sadly lie in the dust of the dessert of time. The dust – those are the worries and thoughts that surround you, that suppress you with fear, with struggle, with deficiency. Slowly the chakra flowers wilt in these unproductive surroundings. During childhood they are still fresh and clear. The older they get, the more they begin to exhale their life through manifold experiences, disappointments and external conditions in the harsh and cold world. They lie sadly defeated, for humanity more often than not chooses not to connect to the infinite source of God. The infinite Source of God pours out into the Universe and floods everything with the magic of purity, of clarity, the recognition of endless life, of emanating power and of joy. Your chakra flowers are once again flooded, immersed and refreshed as if from fed by a mountain stream. This mountain stream tumbles and gently pours over your blossoms. They are reconnected and cleansed, they are awakened again and they begin to raise themselves and restore their strength. They are uplifted and their colours begin to radiate and shine. The dessert around them – your entire auric field – begins to blossom. The chakra flowers become stronger

with every day. They blossom more brilliantly and intensely, pampered and maintained by the Angels. And the stronger they get, the more they raise themselves, aligned and uplifted to the Divine Source. In time they are able to take in the radiance of the Divine Sun. With dignity and sovereignty your chakras begin to take up their God intended tasks and purpose, namely to provide all with the divine primordial power, with the Divine Radiance. First you take on the intuition and inspiration of God, the realisation of God within you. People often say: "I have spent so much effort to open intuition and inspiration within me so that I can differentiate them from my daily thoughts". This is then possible with strong and radiant chakra blossoms that align and rise towards the source. You have the ability to integrate within you the insights of the Divine. For your chakras are receivers for the spirit of God and all blessings. By the same token they are dispensers and distributors of illumination and love. When they are fully in their power, they receive the purest, primordial thoughts and you can understand them. Light Crystals are raining upon you and transporting the Light from the highest of beingness into your aura, in your here and now. In the stream of this crystal light, you are carried by angelic vibrations. Embraced and gently elevated, you can release everything, to hand over in full trust and gain clarity again for your life. Loving angels with the power of authority accompany your soul and connect you with the light of the higher worlds. They activate the process of consciousness enfoldment and the ascension. How wonderful it is for us angels and light beings to see when the chakras blossom again in their splendour and magnificence. How wonderful it is to observe an awakened soul in its beauty, grandeur and magnificence. Scent, sound and colour are irradiated from them. The radiance from the inner being fills the whole surroundings. The beauty of such a soul attracts all the helpers of the heavens to it like a magnet, all the lightful powers that be. And so it is, Beloved Ones. I am Metatron, the Radiant One who stands before the Throne. Contact Ursula & Peter Schnell, Litios速 Light Crystals Canada contact@Litios.ca, www.Litios.ca.

When we start upon the spiritual ladder we often find ourselves working from the level of our chakras to give us an understanding of the separate mini vortexes of energy which need rebalancing within us. This is a journey that many take working from the root chakra climbing the spine until they reach the crown chakra at the top of our heads. During this journey we rebalance layer upon layer of karma, separation and fear which have to be brought back into alignment with our true essence which is love.
have had the energy within us to deal with them if they came up for realignment when we were in the first phase of releasing. Meaning we would have done serious damage to ourselves and maybe others around us if these core issues came up too soon. Secondly, we needed the opportunity to test our new love vibrations so that we could see how much quicker we can bring ourselves back into the vibration of love after each core issue is released. Finally, it’s all a case of divine timing and we all are linked with the journeys of many souls and sometimes we have to wait until all the souls are in place for these energies to align.
Then usually for a few years or more (much less for the NEW children) we are in a period of deep excavation shedding the ways of old (fear) and aligning with Love in our lives. Bouncing from chakra to chakra working through our Head based patterning in a continual state of letting go and absorbing more love into our lives. After a colossal amount of realigning work we reach a certain quota of light within us and are able to hold a base level frequency, which you can’t drop down from again. I liken this to playing a computer game where you reach a certain level and never have to start from level one again, you're always starting from a higher base!
Once we have fully grounded our incredibleness then the fun really begins! We start to embody and act upon our truth. It’s where the energies engage with our feet and allow us to walk our talk. Something that we have all struggled with during this ascending and descending process due to the lack of grounding that existed within. This is where potentials can be actualized as they have been accepted within the earth and can now be delivered in a human and grounded way to all. Rather than a cosmic and flighty energy, which we have all dealt with before, which, never really had any grounding or earth-felt power behind it.
At this point your energies can reach up out of the crown chakra and absorb some of the cosmic vibrations which you came to Earth to deliver. This is different for each of us and can be life altering or very calm and peaceful, dependent upon what our cosmic energies consist of. This part of the process can take minutes or years which again is totally down to your soul’s instruction.
Many souls have been embodying the warrior energies to defeat the collective fear with this planet to bring us to this point, much has been surrendered and sacrificed to make this sacred task possible. So for many you are on the precipice of greatness as you start to walk in synchronization with your truth. These are intense and magical days in which we live. The question is can you remain in your heart whilst the world transforms around you?
Now here is where the fun begins! You now have the task of grounding this energy into the Earth so that you can fully ground it into your reality to work with it in your lives. So it has to pass through all of your chakras on the way down. Again, this can happen in any order and may even bounce around like a pinball wizard game many times before the ball of energy drops right down into the Earth. This game of pinball wizard can produce incredible highs when you hit the soul gifts, and it can produce staggering lows when you hit upon core vibration issues which still have to become whole within.
Much love - Ryan

“Staggering lows “Now hold your horses! You're going to ask me “why are we going to experience staggering lows when bringing this incredible cosmic energy into the world for the good of all?”

A few days ago, my son blessed me with my first grandchild, a girl. He called me immediately after and when I heard her lusty cry announcing her arrival, I broke down in tears.
joyous. They are joy incarnated. We can hold that for them and encourage them to keep on keeping on.
It was a visceral response that I hadn’t expected. I knew I would be happy but this exceeded the happiness I had anticipated. I was moved to the very core of my being.
We can help guide them in their massive awareness’s that feels to them, sometimes, like it is all too much. Too much sadness, too much anger, too much fear and doubt and all of that doesn’t fit in their world. They cannot comprehend the sorrow that is out there. Their very being will cry out to us-there is another way.
They live in Ontario and so I will have to wait a bit until I can fly out for a proper introduction. Then I will be able to look into her eyes and say, as I do to all babies that I meet-“welcome to the world little one-what adventures are you planning?”
And so there is another way. It is one of joy and allowance. It is one of love. It is one that will be walked by all, far down the line. These blessed children have arrived to walk on the planet earth that you have pre-paved for them. They waited for it to be just the right time, in order that they would be just the right age to effect change upon your planet.
I have a feeling that I already know this little one. I have a feeling that we have spent time together in another life. As I mused upon this I realized that of course I have. We are never placed willy-nilly on planet earth. In fact I believe that we choose exactly where we want to be.
So dear ones, when you see a child, any child, you could welcome them to planet earth and thank them for coming. You could encourage them in their dreams-whatever they may be, because you never know where those childish dreams will lead.
Sometimes it doesn’t looks like such a good decision from a human point of view and other times it looks absolutely perfect from a human point of view. However, The Group is telling me as I write that it is always perfect from their view.
And dear ones, if some of them feel very familiar to you, it is because they are. They may tell you when they are able, why that is and so listen closely, hug them, smile and tell them how glad you are to have them with you once again.
My new granddaughter has wonderful parents and a huge support system to surround her and she has me-a slightly mystical grandma who views the world from a different perspective. I have a feeling we will get along just fine.
There are many blessings arriving all over your planet. Did you really think that they would come to a planet that is broken and dying?
The children who are coming in now are more aware than ever. Each one that I meet and welcome to the world usually has a smile for me. Sometimes it is a little shy but most often it is big and beaming. Their eyes are intent upon my being sharing themselves with me. Often I am moved to joyous tears.
They haven’t nor would you have. It is all perfect and all will be well. All of you on your planet are busy working out the details and that is the most interesting part for us to observe. Yes, we do get surprised-delightfully so!
These wonderful children are here because they want to be. It is never a mistake and some have waited patiently for this time. They know they are landing on planet earth at a time where they will witness more magic than ever before. They know that they will help to birth a new way of being on planet earth.
And so will you.
Go For The Joy Linda and The Group
They will refuse to live in fear. They will refuse to doubt themselves, which may end up being a bit of a trial for the parents and the teachers who think they are here to teach them. They don’t need teaching-they already know and they are counting on us to hold the energy of remembrance and gently guide them when they falter. If we don’t they can be hell bent on going where they want to go-no matter what. This is a path that we can walk together with grace if we allow them their own autonomy and allow them to just be who they be. If we don’t then things will get prickly. They can be teased out of prickly with laughter and a light heart. They want to be

This article is about freeing others from the expectations we hold of them. Being a therapist allows me to listen objectively to the expectations one individual, be it partner, parent, child, colleague or friend, has of another. I see the impact of inappropriate expectations, and the way in which the true potential of the relationship goes unrealized. It is appropriate for parents to have expectations of responsible behavior from children who are not yet adults. It is appropriate for adults to have expectations of respect, integrity and honoring agreements between one another. It is not appropriate to make another responsible for our happiness.
unappreciated, he began to withdraw emotionally. She then criticized him for his lack of affection. A downward spiral was developing. With some work she was able to shift her focus away from her expectations, towards what she appreciated in the relationship, and so things began to change. As she stopped trying to control him and instead negotiated for what she would like ( a couple of nights a week of couple time, and one night where she could go out and participate in her favorite sport) she became more fulfilled. With fewer complaints and criticisms directed his way, be became more affectionate. As things continued to improve, he wanted to spend more time at home, so cut back on some of his sports commitments. In both of the above examples, we can see how an unconscious ego attaches to another person, and wants to use the energy of the other almost as an emotional life support. The other person, in ego’s eyes, does not exist as an independent being, in his or her own right, but is being pressed into service to meet the insatiable demands of an ego that has not learned to fulfill itself. If ego was successful in continuing to draw on the energy of the other, the vitality and uniqueness of that person would begin to fade, and with it the quality of the relationship. It’s a little like cutting open the goose that laid the golden eggs. You might get what you want in the short term, but you are altering the ability of the individual to give freely and spontaneously in the future. Eventually he or she won’t want to give at all. If you feel your ego is grasping, relax, let go, and move into soul.
I am reminded of the mother who became estranged from her newly married daughter, because she was no longer top priority in her daughter’s life. She took it personally if her daughter had other commitments and could not stay the whole time at family functions. She showed her anger and resentment towards her daughter, which caused the daughter to avoid her all the more. She tried to control her daughter through guilt in order that she might continue to feel ‘special’. The more she tried to control, the farther away her daughter retreated, and the more bitter and demanding the mother became. It sounds so simple, but if she just dropped the expectations she had of her daughter, and simply loved her, the relationship would be transformed.
By loving and allowing, you raise your own vibrational level. This energy then acts as a magnet, drawing towards you easily and effortlessly that at which ego could only clutch and claw, and helplessly watch slip away time and time again. Loving and allowing is easy and natural. Getting ego out of the way so we can do so, is the human challenge.
A similar scenario was being played out with a young professional couple with two small children. The wife had the expectation that her husband would conduct himself in accordance to her idea of what a good husband does. In her mind, a good husband always puts his family first, and has minimal involvement outside of work and home. Unfortunately, she chose to marry a man who loved playing soccer, and who had spent his adult life coaching young players. It was his passion. He truly loved his wife and enjoyed time with his children, but did not want to give up something he loved. She also expected him to call her several times a day at work, send her romantic cards and surprise her regularly with flowers, but that was not his style. He saw no sense in robotically carrying out these gestures, but preferred to allow them to manifest spontaneously, albeit less often. Because he did not live up to her expectations, she was very critical. As he felt increasingly judged and

For the last two years or so I have been writing about the meaning of each rune as an ideograph or phonetic value and the god or goddess they represent. Now we will start learning what their meanings are as magickal symbols, which was what they were first used as. The word rune is derived from r첫n or r첫na from the Old Norse, Old English, Gothic, Old Saxon, and High German and meant secret, mysterium, secret council, mystery, magickal signs, etc. The original meanings were not written but handed down orally from runemaster or vitki to student and are not the same as the concept "letter" meanings that we have been looking at so far. But both are considered runic.
With this type of cast you must believe that magick is real and part of the natural order of the universe, or no matter how skillfully you lay out your runes, nothing will happen. Science is just beginning to understand what the Pagans knew instinctively. That the earth, along with everything else on this planet, is a living organism. Each part is essential to the healthy functioning of the whole. Magick was accepted because they knew it worked.
A quote from the medieval philosopher, Basilius Valentinus states, "the Earth is not a dead body but it is inhabited by the spirit that is its life and soul. All created things draw their strength from this Earth spirit. This spirit is life; it is nourished by the stars and it gives nourishment to all living things it shelters in its womb." Wow! Think about that statement for a while. This was from a guy in medieval times and yet, he understood and accepted that concept without question. In some ways, the smarter man has gotten, the less he understands. We are one with everything that exists. Everything that Is was made by some higher Force along the ordered lines of concrete physical laws. As with all life, we partake of the Communal Life Force, and as we partake, so we can interact. This interaction is Magick. Now I am not going to quibble what we call this Force. Some refer to it as God, some call it Source, and others believe it is Energy. Whatever name you refer to it as, the entire universe, and all the other multiverses (if you believe this theory), were created by it. I will use the 33
name, Source, as I feel it is more palatable for the majority. Feel free to insert whatever name you feel most comfortable using. It is from Source that the runic vibrations are drawn, and it is to Source they return, bound together by the magician. The more you meditate on and work with your runes, the easier it will become to feel the energy as a tangible force that you can mold according to your personal needs. Note the word "needs" and not wants or desires. Magick should not be used for such petty things. You can, but often you will have no luck with such endeavours. The key to success of any operation is the sheer force of will the magician uses to charge the operation. Without a true need, it is often difficult to project the force needed to complete the work. Example: the magician who will be evicted if he doesn't come up with the money for rent is likely to be more successful with his money magick, than the greedy businessman who wants to win the lottery or get ahead at the expense of another. As with the Law of Attraction, if you truly believe you can succeed, there is no reason why you shouldn't. When you first start, magick may seem like blind faith, but the more success you have, the more proof you have that it works. The laws of magick are much the same as the laws of cause and effect, and they work in the unseen world as they would in the world of matter. Forget all the preconceived ideas that magick is mysterious and complicated. If that were true, early man would have never gotten it. It is merely about subtly changing your reality. If you follow the rules, choose your correct runes, and have a genuine need and belief, then your magick is sure to be a success. Next month we will breakdown what the various runes mean in regards to magick but there are many good books on the subject as well. Maybe go to the library and exercise that card you have in your wallet or purse. Until next month, Sk책l, my brothers and sisters

A mantra for those who are wondering is “ a sacred verbal formula repeated in prayer, meditation or incarnation.�
listening to constant reinforcement of one message and repeat them either out loud or in my mind ( depending on location) as I walk, I am sure my dogs know the words as well and if they could speak would ! Visual Mantras are also important I have them written down and on display through out my home, so that when I see them I am reminded to be mindful and to touch base with who I am in my now.
I often use a Mantra to motive me and also to still my mind during meditation. I find them to be a powerful and easy method to bring my constantly wondering mind back into a place of calm and centered focus. The trick is to remember to keep the phrase you use, short and simple, but one that has meaning for you. I have for many years used the Mantra :
Words have power, and how we think and talk about ourselves have power. Keeping ourselves on track to being the best us we can be is work, incorporating habits that help us to remain mindful of that does not have to be a long painful process. Find a few mantras that work for you, that you resonate too and give them a try. I know you will be amazed at the results
I Can I Will I Am
I am flow I am Love, Grace and Joy. I am abundance and abundant I soar and see opportunity everywhere
For me this means I can do this, I will do this and now I am doing this. This is a inner motivation for me to switch over from being passive ( I can) to starting ( I Will) to doing ( I Am). I find this Mantra a powerful motivator especially when I am exercising.
Have a fabulous month
For years I have taught clients to use a mantra for helping them to focus on stilling their busy minds when they are learning to meditate. To give your mind a focal point is a must and again keeping it simple is also necessary. The easiest mantra I use is : In and Out and it is timed with each breath I take.
Namaste Debra Rae
If you do not give your mind a job it will cross over into creating one to share with you! On my phone I have downloaded some power mantras from Louise Hay ( yes I do believe that a affirmation is a mantra ) and from artists like Deva Premal who has albums of Indian Mantras and I listen to them as I walk. I usually theme them so that I am

Last November, as I passed by my TV while walking through my living room, I heard a ‘TV’ voice from the Marilyn Denis show referencing a ‘100-Day Challenge’. I paused as a tiny inner nudging seemed to say, ‘Pay attention to this!’; and so I listened, the result being that I entered the Show’s 100 Day Challenge through their online page. Oh yes, I did. With no prior intention or fanfare about accomplishing a goal, I simply followed a spontaneous inner prompting and stepped across the threshold.
with the logical mind only, this small creation grew. (For anyone who might be interested in watching the 100-Day Challenge update, here’s is that link: http://www.marilyn.ca/video?vid=525206 ) So why is this outcome important? To me, this story embraces potential as well as the energy and synergy that appear when those gentle ‘suggestions’ arising from the realm of intuition emerge from within. Intuition reveals pathways that direct us towards what is possible to create or encounter in our lives in this world. Intuition always produces life-affirming possibility (if it isn’t life-affirming, then it is not intuition). It transmits, as an undercurrent, a kind of quiet intention that is perfectly in alignment with our own inner longings about how we were meant to show up during our time on this earth.
For those of you who may not know about Marilyn Denis, she hosts a nationally syndicated Canadian TV show and I decided that my challenge, as a result of this show, was to create a small watercolour artwork (6” x 8” in size) and/or work through some watercolour techniques, every day for 100 days. And so, I began. Now, the holidays did intervene a little bit and I lost a few ‘painting’ days in favour of indulging in those wonderful, seasonal celebrations with family and friends; however, I am happy to say that I am back to the drawing board; or, in this case, back to the watercolour/acrylic board. Um…yes, it’s morphed into adding small acrylic works to the adventure since painting is about flow and following the inner muse.
My logical mind could never have taken this project on alone because it functions as a linear model rather than a creative one. It has far too many rules to follow if left as the sole director of my life. Even so, I definitely require my rational mind as a helpmate to partner with my more creative intuitive nature. So do you. Moving with that inner inspired vision that we all carry within, even without really knowing where that journey might lead us for certain, arouses a growing sense of faith in the process as well as an increasing comprehension, that this is indeed, a benevolent universe. On this intuitive path, who knows what beauty or what human connection might show up? One small endeavour can lead to more possible paths, to endings that become beginnings in a way that we might never have imagined. Finding myself on national TV was admittedly a bit of a thrill, but best of all; I walked through a project that brought me to understand that I now knew how to make YouTube videos too if I so desired…and, as it turns out, I do!
After some time and to my surprise, a producer from the Marilyn Denis show contacted me, asking if I would provide a short webcam video outlining how the 100-Day Challenge was affecting me. Amazing! I immediately agreed to her request even through the clamouring of those inner and worried voices in my head (noisy thoughts) explaining in great detail how I needed to figure out how to really use my webcam for filming this, how I might not be able to do this, how to adjust for sound and light, how to set up a background, how to give my appearance a little boost and then how to work through a couple trial filming runs so that, ultimately, the prospect around sounding reasonably coherent might emerge. Whew! It felt like a lot to embrace and the timeframe for completing this project was approximately one and a half days which for me, considering my lack of abilities in this techie realm, was a very short time indeed to pull this together. But pull it together, I did. It rather flowed. In fact, I felt directed from some inner mentor or source that calmly led me through each stage of production so that I felt clear-headed and filled with an attitude that if expressed might have said…No worries, let’s simply see what happens…OneStep-at-a-time. There was no certainty that my little film piece would actually appear on the show as I sat down on the appointed day to watch the designated episode. As the minutes passed by, it seemed as though the segment wouldn’t air, but then, during the last few minutes of the show; the 100-Day Challenge Updates appeared. Along with several other videos from women also participating in the 100-Day Challenge, was my little production! Whoa! I have to say that I laughed with delight for out of seemingly nothing, emerged possibility. Then, by listening and following the suggestions rising from the quiet of intuition rather than from abiding

Once upon time’s strings, notes were tuned to one another, echoed across the darkness.. Melodies mingled, evolved a call-response, like lyre bird retells its day – the swell of tunings sung throughout those creations, became the colors of our borealis. ****** Relationships are the ponds of our common memories, where sea grass is laid down, tangled by the tide. When water returns to land it will rise to sing again. It’s in the pause that we can find the notes, remember who we are.

Planetary ‘Action’ at a Glance
and excess. Jupiter is very slow moving which allows us to settle in and really grasp the energy presented. We start the year off with Jupiter continuing in a retrograde in Leo (inner spiral) where we can contemplate and create our own opportunities of growth.
Double Whammy Days for the Month of February – 4, 5, 11, 27 … take care – with short meditative breaks throughout the day – remember to breathe. Favorite Meditation or relaxed days for the Month of February – 1,19, Experiment with different types of meditation, breathing - moving (chi gong) or walking silent or music/talking.
Jupiter Squares and Oppositions for the Month of January – 11, 17, 23 … Don’t lose sight of your budget, over -indulging or over-committing, watch that others do not take advantage of your generosity.
Mercury, our planet of communication in all forms from old fashioned verbal & written – to communication that travels on air waves. Mercury is in the middle of a Retrograde – Inner spiral… keep re-doing and revising your old files and emails. This will last until the February 12th.
Saturn… Our planet of boundaries, restrictions, limitations and possibly fear. Just at the end of 2014 (25th) Saturn moved into Sagittarius, and will travel through this fiery optimistic energy for the next couple of years. Saturn in Sagittarius will help you infuse flexibility and passion into what you are manifesting, focus on healthy boundaries. As he moves through Sagittarius you may feel a little more unorganized (lack of details), so create a system of to-do-lists that will ensure success.
Mercury squares and oppositions for the Month of February – 2, 10, 10, 11 …Think before you speak, CHOOSE YOUR WORDS WISELY! Venus … our planet of Love, Security (which often shows up as monetary wants) and what we like to surround ourselves with (art, greenery, food, music, colour things … ) with a very individual flare and expression. Venus continues to move through Pisces. Venus Flytrap …exquisitely beautiful – then becomes deadly as she moves into Aries on the 21st ;-)
Saturn conjunctions, squares and oppositions for the Month of February – 12, 18, 25 …You may feel that life is hard work. STEP UP and MEET THE CHALLENGE! Neptune … Our planet that dissolves boundaries and limitations. Neptune continues through Pisces so take care with experimentation of drugs and alcohol and Be MindFul of what you are creating.
Venus squares and oppositions for the Month of January – 5, 14, 27 … Heartache/domestic and security challenges. LOVE and EMBRACE LIFE anyway!
Uranus … Unleash your Genius, this is our planet of sudden ideas and change. Uranus is slowly moving through Aries – creating impulsive moments in our lives … be a rebel with a cause. Focus this energy on new and innovative ideas that make your life the best it can be!
Mars … Our planet of action, passion and anger. In today’s society I think Mars is one of the most difficult planetary projections into our personal psyche. It is important for you to connect to and work with your Martian energy – utilizing healthy expressions of action. Mars travels through Pisces until the 21 where he takes back his power as me moves into Aries. Run Forrest … Run … the limitations dissolve and away you go.
Pluto … Our planet of transformation, control (ego) and power. Pluto slowly plods along moving through Capricorn – Pluto continues to push for change to our old and outworn patterns of dictatorship and inflexible leadership (although you will continue to feel the resistance).
Mars, watch squares, conjunctions and oppositions for the Month of January – 6, 20, 27 …Use Caution! Be careful of temper tantrums and accidents! RED LIGHT

the Sun to infuse you with health and vitality
together blending their energies, creating anticipation toward something new.
Solar cycles … New and Full Moons – it is important to step outdoors and connect to the early evening sky, and again in the early morning just before the Sun peaks out from the horizon, consciously wake from one dream and step into another. The lunar cycle is a monthly marker giving us a time line in which to complete old tasks, then birth the new. When we do this we inherently connect to our genetic/collective habits and patterns of our multi-dimensional bodies. As above So below.
Chinese New Year … year of the Goat. We have a very late degree New Moon which is quite capable of taking an abstract idea and seeing it all the way through to completion. Jupiter our planet of opportunity and growth is in charge of the flow of energy in the pattern of this New Moon, adding a little twist to the story… the opportunities will be created by you! You will need to have faith in yourself and accept that YOU are deserving. Don’t get frustrated and in a hurry to complete your goals – slow and steady – create lasting change by working on a solid foundation – and building on that. Let go of needing to control the outcome.
The Full Moon – February 3th at 14 Leo 48’ (3:09pm)
In order to embrace and recognize new goals this month you will need to incorporate and contemplate the following energy: Develop ideas of what you want but you need to have faith that you are a powerfully magnetic Be-ing. Have a ‘can This is a very dynamic Full Moon – if you need to dig do’ attitude and accept (deeply) that you deserve it … but it is your heels in to get the job done – tune in and embrace important to create healthy boundaries but avoid too many the passionate determination of this Fixed Air/Fire dy- rules and limitations … balance the polarity between all talk and no manifestation. … meditate often in order to create namic duo. Jupiter supports growth and optimism with- clarity and clear up any fogginess.
The Full moon is the opposition of the Sun and Moon – shining light into every dark corner.
in your daily habits and patterns – make sure the patterns you have created support your goals. Uranus is in a great position to help uproot habits that you have developed in the past that no longer serve your goals … that which you have been clinging onto and need to let go of and there is opportunity to create lasting and meaningful change. Don’t be afraid to make adjustments in order to achieve your goals. Use tools such as the Cartesian Co-ordinates (see below) In order to complete goals this month you will need to incorporate – and contemplate the following energy signatures: Do you feel you are lacking in your ability to magnetically draw what you need? You may need to contemplate an overabundance of ego and a series of mini surprises or twists that try to throw you off track … instead use them to shakeup and shake-off old habits and patterns … you have an abundance of emotional bounce back & optimism to push you forward … be sure to increase grounding … incorporate passion in your problem solving.

Full Moon
The full moon in February falls on February 3, 2015. One day after Imbolc or St Brigid’s day, which celebrates the half way mark between winter solstice and spring Equinox, and Groundhog Day. This full moon is known as the Full Snow Moon, it was said that the heaviest snowfalls happened during this time. It has also been known as the Full Hunger Moon due to supplies laid over for the winter dwindling. The word February is born from the Latin word Februarius, from Latin februare meaning to "purify" or "expiate." February is a unique month in that the holiday season is truly over, we have used January to get back into our normal routine and now we are looking forward to spring. It has been called the transition month. The perfect time to finish off projects so that we are ready for the return of warmer days when we will want to be outdoors.
February 3
Using the thought “to purify”, what can we release in our lives in the form of finishing off projects and seeing where we are at with any goals we made back in January? Anything that you feel needs a breath of fresh air to re-invigorate it. To do this make a list of all the things you wanted to get done this winter. Cross of those you have completed and start itemizing the rest of the list in the order of importance to you. This works equally well for any resolutions or goals you made in January. It could be a simple as reading a book you have wanted to read for a few months. Now is the perfect time, winter is still upon us, and our homes are cozy and warm. From now until the new moon see how many of those items you can complete and cross off your list. 48
www.nourishpublication.com
A simple purifying ritual is called for this month. Draw a bath (to represent water), using Epsom salts (earth), your favorite bubble bath (air), and light a candle (fire). Before you slip into the tub, ask your angels to be present (spirit). Allow your thoughts to wander where they may for half an hour as you enjoy the warm water, favorite scent, and the flicker of the candle. It is not necessary but if any visions or thoughts come up, jot them down when you get out of the tub. This simple ritual is very calming and purifying to the body, mind and soul. Enjoy.
new Moon
The new moon in February arrives on February 18th and is in the house of Aquarius. Once again we are going to experience a super moon and as a special added bonus, drum roll please, this new moon is also known as a black moon! What does all this mean? A Super Moon, which basically means it is close to the earth and has a stronger magnetic pull than normal.
February 18
Usually, there are only three new moons in one season, the period of time between a solstice and an equinox – or vice versa. However, there are four new moons in between the December 2014 solstice and the March 2015 equinox. Some people call the third of these four new moons as a seasonal Black Moon. Not much information is around on the significance of a “black moon” but I felt it should be mentioned. The super moons strengthen our impact for change. Given that this New Moon is also a black moon, it enhances the tendency to turn inward. “BE THE CHANGE YOU WANT TO SEE IN THE WORLD” is what is coming to me. This is the year to empower yourself, your intentions that you set right now should reflect this. On the 19th we enter the Chinese New Year of the sheep, a gentle year is promised with this yin energy. We collectively are being given the opportunity for personal greatness this year, and I think we should all jump on the proverbial band wagon and get er done! Celebrate this New Moon with some me time. Whatever allows you to feel pampered and special set aside some time to indulge yourself today. It can be as simple as booking a massage to as elaborate as a mini vacation. No matter what you decide to indulge in, allow yourself to quietly meditate on where you would like to go this year, what area would you like personal growth in? Write them down in your journal. Do not try to figure out how you are going to achieve them, just allow them to brew and lead you in the direction you need to go. Be ready, in this way you will be able to embrace the new potentials emerging in your life as they happen. Welcome to a wonderful year of amazing! Celebrate you on this beautiful New Moon day. 49

A crystal reading for February Week 1 Chrysocolla
February is the month when we look around and recognize and acknowledge those people who are dear to us, people whose presence in our lives makes a difference. While the commercial focus is on romantic love most people have others whom they acknowledge on this day. As you celebrate the presence of love in your life remember to look into the mirror and celebrate the beloved that looks back at you‌ Reaching out in a quest for information that can help you to walk the path of joy and light is a natural thing. We are often confused as to which way to turn, what voice to listen to. Always, always heed your own inner voice, your intuition. Carry and use crystals, allowing the frequency of each stone to assist you in hearing your own wise self. You are love. You are dearly loved.
Week 2 Serpentine
Week 3 Pyrite
Week 4 Calcite

Week 1 - February 1 – 7: Chrysocolla: This week is all about ‘seek and thou shalt find.’ You are looking for answers, for a new job, for a friend, a lover or even a good book to read. We often send our heartfelt longings out to the universe. Now is the time to put some energy into achieving your desires. Do not take this to mean that you should become a model of busyness – oh, no! Rather recognize your desire, let the universe know of it, breathe it and then listen to what your heart tells you to do. Whether it makes sense or not, follow your heart’s suggestion. Resist the urge to ask all and sundry for direction. Week 2 - February 8 – 14: Serpentine: This is the week to wear your heart on your sleeve – literally! Surround yourself and your being spaces with hearts, partly to remind yourself that love abounds where you are and partly to share that awareness with others. It may not be easy, but by the 14th you will be so glad you gave yourself the gift of preparation. You pulse with love – and you need no other person to make it happen. If others join you in your celebration, wonderful! Be willing to give yourself the gift of love. The world is waiting for you. Week 3 - February 15 – 21: Pyrite: Structure is a necessary part of our lives, from the structures we create to live in and move about in our world to the simple structure of our day. This week look at your structures. Are some in danger of toppling over? Do some need to be de-cluttered? Space is an integral part of structure. Allow that which is no longer needed to move on, whether it is possessions, a job you are finished with or a person you used to call friend. As you move the clutter and allow light and air to permeate your world that which you are seeking will be able to find you.
Week 4 - February 22 – 28: Calcite: The air softens as we move closer to spring. The sun is warmer and the air is fragrant with the promise of spring. Now is the time to breathe: long, deep breaths that fill you with freshness and possibility. Movement in the open air will encourage a lighter heart and bring laughter easily to your lips. Song will burst forth, expressing the joy that dwells within. Make the time. Take the time. Giving yourself the gift of life, of love, of openheartedness… 51

Well. There is a pun waiting to happen and I might as well get it out there right now, otherwise it will be sitting at the back of my mind. Punishing me, as it were. Are you having the thyme of your life? Can’t seem to find thyme for all those tasks? Apparently, carrying thyme essential oil with you can help to improve all sorts of time management problems. I haven’t actually tried it for that yet – but you can bet I will be testing it this month. One of my biggest complains is that I don’t have enough time to do all the things I need to do. Hah!
Enjoy exploring this essential oil, and please – always remember to use only 3rd party certified therapeutic grade essential oils.
Please remember to use only 3rd party certified therapeutic grade essential oils. For more information on Young Living Essential oils and blends, please contact me by email at lightvera1@gmail.com or go to the website: www.youngliving.org
All right – with that out of the way, let’s have a good look at this essential oil. Like the plant, it can seem like the shy oil of the bunch. Mint pushes it out of the way, oregano climbs all over it. Tarragon and rosemary tower over it and basil just puts its delicate broad leaves out and thyme is simply forgotten. Don’t let her soft ways fool you, though. This is one of the most powerful oils you will connect with. Thyme has a spicy, warm, herbaceous aroma that is both intense and penetrating. It has been known since ancient times as a medicinal herb, being one of those listed in the Eber’s Papryus (16th century BC) and other herbal remedy guides.
Vera
Thyme is one of those oils that seems to be beneficial for almost all of the body’s systems. Added to an organic carrier oil (such as sweet almond oil) thyme can help to soothe aching muscles and to relieve muscle spasms. Taken sparingly in a gel cap it can help to relieve symptoms of respiratory distress and digestive complaints. It is another oil that is helpful for rheumatism and gout, due to its ability to stimulate the circulatory system and its diuretic properties. It is antiseptic, antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal. It is helpful when fighting a cold – taken early enough it may be enough to ward off the bug altogether! Diffuse into your home during cold and flu season to keep the air clean and fresh. This is not an oil to use in the bath or neat on your skin. Always use a carrier oil and test on a small area prior to use. As with many essential oils, thyme may also be used to enhance the flavor of food. Anywhere that you would use the herb you can use the oil (provided, of course, that you are using certified therapeutic grade oil). Add it dr op by dr op to your stew, soup or other dish, giving it a couple of minutes to be absorbed and then tasting before adding the next drop. Too much of a good thing is too much! Photo: © youngliving™
Although not often used by itself aromatically, thyme can help relieve depression. Diffuse alone or with bergamot, cedarwood or juniper. Experiment with this and all oils, because what works for me won’t necessarily feel right for you. Muscle testing is always a valuable resource if you are not sure what to use. I have also held two (or more) bottles side by side to see if I like the smell of them together. It’s a very quick and easy test to get started, at which point you can begin to refine your blend. Carolyn Mein, in her book, “Releasing Emotional Patterns with Essential Oils,” recommends thyme as the oil to use in order to restore security when we are feeling a lack of protection. Mix 2 –3 drops of oil combined with V6 mixing oil and apply about 2 inches above the belly button, rubbing in a clockwise circle.

Recently, one of our authors, attended a weekend retreat. During this retreat she met many healers and practitioners. One healing session she had left an impression upon me and I decided to connect with the facilitator. What impressed me was how in a short 2 hour period he was able to pull so much from her gang and the universe. I have been long distant friends with this person for 15 years, so know the history and I felt that what Robert and Jennifer were able to help her with, in 2 hours, was amazing!
when to say, “You’re not ready.” True healing must be sought by the client, it cannot be canvassed or cold called. There are some who are awakened later in life, and when they do the inner work, they are very good practitioners, but sadly, I have had to work with many practitioners who have been taught wrong, or who have passed a test procedure to get them a certificate, but not knowing how to even sense energy. I say all this not in ego, but in letting you know, my work in the last few years has been in helping the new practitioners achieve their goals, and the needs of their clients. It has shown to me, every practitioner needs a practitioner, but one who is of higher a vibration. That’s the learning curve.
I was under a different impression of what they did, but was quickly and gently steered in the right direction after emailing them. I still was not sure exactly what was involved, that urge to understand and learn more along with an offer from Robert to write for Nourish and share his knowledge, lead to the following interview.
3) How long have you been involved in healing work? The involvement was from an early age, just not recognized then. The usual symptoms healers experience were there. Not belonging to family or friends, feeling different, having thoughts of emotions, no other person had at the time, taking the blame, feeling the pain of others, knowing when to give a word of encouragement, always been at the back of a party, too much empathic energy, and the list goes on. Now I have been shown, through my new life partner, that when healing is shared and put forth to our clients, the outcomes are surreal.
I am very pleased to introduce to all of you Robert; 1) In your own words, please describe your practice. My practice is one of divine healing through God, Goddess and Gaia. Through them I have been opened up to the potential of universal healing by allowing their light, healing and knowledge, to shine through me to assist others in their healing journey. As a practitioner of light, I have been trained in the old ways of releasing deep emotional dark energies, some so deep, most modalities cannot reach them. I find the most descriptive way to explain what I do, is the healings that have occurred by my students, and I think more so, by the number of masters we have created. The main success of healing is to create an atmosphere whereby the student heals in 1 to 2 sessions, and then tools are given to help them continue, without the need for years of counselling or psyche techniques which keep you coming to them for years in some cases. Our practice is therefore a deep hit to the emotions that are holding you back from finding the deep love of self, which in turn, finds a deep love for others. I have found many practitioners are not self-trained, they are textbook trained, and that is detrimental to today’s healings, though it may help a little, we have been sent to many who have been not properly served. I strive to keep up to date, not by text or rote learning, but by connecting mindlessly (my term), to receive the guidance needed at each session we provide, i.e., we tune in at that moment of time for each student to serve them the best, through their higher self, and any guides that may assist.
From the above information provided I have a better sense that Robert follows his intuition when working with those who seek him. From previous communication with Robert, I know that up to 10 different modalities are used during a session, this is to enable a deeper healing process for the client. Basically, from what I gather, all healings initiated are dependent and guided by what the client requires. Another important fact is he is not tied to an outcome! The best healers understand that they are but a conduit, the healing occurs when the client is ready and in the right space. Often healers have expectations on what “healing” should look like, Robert allows healing to meander in whatever direction it is needed, for as long as it takes and to the depth that is required for each client. If you are in the Toronto area and are working on healing any area of your life, I highly recommend you connect with Robert and his wife Jennifer. Please watch for an article from Robert and Jennifer in next months issue. If you wish to connect with Robert, you may do so at
2) What lead you to offering your services to others?
celticthunder51@gmail.com
In retrospect, I have always offered my services, from the sandbox in grade one, to the many souls who felt my presence and aura of healing. Many souls throughout my life have come to me, in fact, 99.99% sought me out, the few I have tried to help by going to them, showed me they were not ready. My services have been steadily given to people over 40 years. In the process I have been shown when to grow, when to heal within to better serve them, 57

This month my adventure with Clearly Conscious Energetic and the sound technology continues. For this session, I travelled to Bill and Ann’s home for a personal sound session and tune in. Upon arriving, we enjoyed a cup of tea and caught up on what has happened since the “Tuning into Love Retreat” I wrote about last month. The sound technology was playing and the house sung with the vibrations and frequencies of love, safety and protection, making their home warm and inviting. The technology in their home provides those visiting and coming for sessions a different experience than when participating in a group session.
ing with guidance gently folded in. Some of the message my 3 dimensional-self did not understand but my higher dimensionalself did. The message reached into my multiverse to my multidimensional selves imprinting in the now of love. The effect of this session has rippled out for days and I suspect will continue to ripple for weeks, months, years and beyond.
After finishing our tea and lovely conversation, it was time to head downstairs to the session room, where we made a new set of my personal tones (¹Did you know that your voice is more unique than your DNA? Each person has a unique energy signature. Using an amazing software, Bill & Ann create a unique set of frequencies specifically designed to help harmonize and balance each client). As I settled into the lounge chair a portable handheld device (²pocket cube – link below to see what it is) was placed on my solar plexus, another technology (³ICube-link below) was placed on my heart with my left hand holding it, and one was placed on my sacral chakra. I was now ready to drift off into a different reality as my tones, gamma frequencies with wave sounds, and the song “Opening to Love” were plugged in. Cozy and snug with the technology, a blanket, eye mask and the lights out, I drifted off as the session started in an altered state of consciousness.
“Be at peace and know. Know that your multiverse of selves is always watching out for you and guiding you. We know this sounds far-fetched for some of you, but rest assured it is not. For you are filled with infinite possibilities in all directions of time and space and beyond. You are the adventures of the universe and beyond. There are adventures within adventures within the very fabric of who you are. These journeys of love enfold you, expand you and yes challenge you to follow the bread crumbs deeper down the rabbit hole of yourself. Are you ready?”
I finished off my adventure with Bill and Ann with a hug and a farewell. The rest of the night was spent in quiet bliss with the angels drifting in with a message for us all: Dear Ones
With love for your adventures The Angels Thank you Bill Little and Ann Sahadath for holding the space and doing the session. Check them out at www.clearlyconscious.ca ¹what the heck is a personal tone? Explanation from clearlyconscious.ca ²pocket cube ³ICube
Bill and Ann settled in nearby, holding space for the session. I drifted down and expanded out beyond myself and the boundaries of the house into the waves of universal source, literally tingling with love. The tingles radiated out on the wave of “All that Is”. I was the tingling waves of the grid of the universe. Colors swirled in indigo, blue, purple and pink for me, indicating the expansion into the higher consciousness of love. I Floated in “All that Is” for what seemed infinite when in reality it was about two hours. The sound session ended and I gently came back to reality with a stretch, a sigh and a yawn.

The rune I drew for February is Naudhiz. I was reminded that Naudhiz was the same rune I drew last February as well. As it seems to appear at this time for a reason, I will look into its meaning a bit deeper than usual.
Make no hasty judgements, and do not act out of impatience, because at this time your actions will only lead to disaster. If it is too late and you have already become stuck on the wrong path, this rune's message is to be honest and admit to your error, and try to salvage whatever you can from the situation.
Naudhiz is the rune of need, delay, and patience. No matter how much you want something now, one needs to lay back and allow things to work out in their own time. This rune always indicates a time of passing through a difficult learning situation and this time is known as "crossing the abyss." It is often a time of extreme emotional challenges. This should be met head on, because by conquering your fears, it can be the catalyst that drives you to overcome whatever obstacles appear in your path at a later date.
In reverse and paired with justice runes such as Jera, it indicates you will be called on to make restitution for past misdeeds. Be prepared to step up and accept what is rightly your due, if you don't, an "outside force" will step in to ensure you do. This could be karmic, a force of fate, or a justice issue. As a magickal rune, Naudhiz has two aspects to it and you would be advised to remember them when forming your runescript. Naudhiz represents need and distress but also the release from that distress. Through the utilization of this rune by will, one can change Fate via knowledge and wisdom. This rune is a very powerful rune in Icelandic love magick and represents the primal needs and desires that drive you to seek a lover.
It is interesting that Naudhiz comes up at the same time as Mercury in retrograde because both signify it is not the time to sign anything or take on new projects. They both advise sitting back, conserving energy, and waiting for a more advantageous time. If Naudhiz is drawn with health runes, it could indicate ill health, perhaps a chronic affliction. However, if drawn with upright health rune like Kenaz, it shows an alleviation of illness or perhaps even a cure, especially when the rest of the runes in the cast are positive.
Uses: 1 overcoming distress 2 achieving your goals 3 protection 4 love magick - finding a lover 5 impetus to get a relationship off the ground
In questions of romance, this rune implies that one is ruled by an emotional need which is not being met to your satisfaction at this time.
Until next month, Sk책l my brothers and sisters
Naudhiz indicates your needs as opposed to your wants and you should ask yourself if what is bothering you, is merely a minor inconvenience which you may be blowing out of proportion or if you truly have a problem. The key here is "needs" vs "wants." Runes should never be used for selfish purposes and are not to be trifled with.
phil
Naudhiz reversed should give you pause about anything you may have planned. It indicates you are setting off on an improper course of action and if you continue, Naudhiz warns of certain failure.

Message from the Angels
February 2015 We come to sit with you, soothe your brow and hold your hand, and we ask that you open your heart and mind and hear the message we bring to you today. It does not matter when you are reading this, when you need to hear our message you will find this and know without a doubt that we guided you here today. You are worthy, YOU ARE WORTHY, you are worthy. How does that feel as it washes over your soul? You are worthy, no matter what has been spoken or unspoken to you or about you, you need to embrace this state of being and know it to your very core. No more can you hide behind the words and thoughts of others. You need to purify yourself from those thoughts, as they hold you back from your brilliance. There are many prejudices in the world, and perhaps the most insidious are the ones you have developed about yourself. Peer pressure, parental influence, teacher control, management in the workplace, abusive relationships, emotional blackmail – all of these over the course of your life, can lead to feelings of not being worthy, and not meeting the expectations of others. Those prejudices would not be truth, yet you would see them as such and hold them like precious treasures, pulling them out to polish on occasion, keeping them alive. Understand that you are the caretaker of yourself. You alone can change. Do not allow others to define you or your worth. We are offering you a renewal, so accept it, and with compassion we will gently cleanse your spirit of any feelings of unworthiness. We are here to help you for-
give yourself and others, and set into motion the healing that needs to take place so that you may fully step into your brilliance with confidence and self-assuredness that you are indeed loved, and worthy of all you can ever dream of, and more. You are ready now to accept this, and in fact you have always known this on a soul level. All the world is anxiously awaiting for your contributions. The time is now to put yourself first and honor your knowledge, the knowledge that you can accomplish and achieve anything. It is time to do what is right for you. Your past has led you to this moment, and it has prepared you with many ups and downs. You have weathered them all by doing the best you were capable of doing. Now you stand on the precipice of having the life you want, and it is time to take that leap of faith. Faith through the knowledge that you are truly worthy of the best life has to offer. How else would you have arrived where you are today if you did not have faith, and somewhere deep within you, know you are worthy? Step into the future with the knowledge that you are ready. You are worthy! We will walk beside you and gently remind you when you fail to feel you are. Power of three.
