Learn to Live From the Heart

Are you empowered to live the life you’ve always wanted to live? Here’s your invitation to meet the friends you wish you’d grown up with at the

ENCINO COMMUNITY CHURCH with over fifty years of community enrichment, an all-inclusive circle of Love that seeks to make a difference just as we are.

Christmas is the infinite renewal of the gift

that was given in the beginning…’God so loved the world that He gave a Son that would demonstrate the truth of all human life’. In Truth, we have been given many sons and daughters who came with the glad tidings that God is good! Life is good! and…so are you!! If we truly believed that we are innately good, would there be wars? Would there be prejudice? Would there be duality? We won’t know for sure until we live as though there were no yesterdays, only today. Let’s give ourselves the greatest gift of all this Christmas. Let’s allow ourselves to love ourselves just as we are, love our neighbors, love those who live far, far away and Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah. love the Oversoul who loved us first. Rev. Margie Ann Taylor-Black., D.D.

Healing from the Inside-Out

Dr. Richard Moss is a world r e n o w n e d t e a c he r, he a le r, who s e p r o c e s s i s he a l i n g through presence. “R icha rd Moss is one of the best teachers of transformational wisdom; hands down. I read everything he writes.” Marianne Williamson WP: Okay. I’d like to start. It’s where I start with everybody. I’d like to touch just a little bit on what it was like being the little Richard Moss. RM: Well, you know, I don’t remember very much of the little me, except I remember some of the birthday parties you know, eight millimeter camera stuff, my little cowboy hat. I remember playing pin the tail on the donkey, musical chairs. I was probably four and my brother was three. I remember that. WP: And was it a typical childhood in the sense that you had your primary caregivers as mom and dad, or grandparents? RM: I was raised by my parents. My father was a school teacher in the public schools of New York City. My mother was a nurse who stopped her career when I was born and then came my brother. She was a dedicated, devoted homemaker and mother. I was a very allergic child, and so as a young child I had a lot of trouble with allergies, particularly. They called me Celiac as a baby. I have no memory of that, but I had allergies and asthma until puberty and then it all absolutely vanished and never came back. WP: Wow! And how do you attribute that happening?

Interviewed by Tony Camacho

RM: To puberty. WP: To puberty (Laughs). Okay. That made it easy. So what part of the state did you grow up in? RM: I grew up on Long Island, outside of New York City. WP: And from there through middle school and into high school, was that back east? RM:Yeah. I went to public schools, I was lucky to be in what was called Advanced Placement class; they selected a group of students from all the various schools and put us all together. Very bright and successful people, and there were only about twenty of us. So high school was an experience, it was interesting. I was perfectly happy to leave it. Everyone was crying to say goodbye, and I thought they were nuts. Then I went to the State University of New York. I studied as an undergraduate and then to New York Medical College for medicine, to avoid the Vietnam War. And here I am. WP: Interesting, when you said medical school, I tend to see medical school as one of those places that from at a very young age and plays itself out, and suddenly here

we are, we’re out of college and we’re in medical school. Was it that experience for you or something different? RM: Do you want to know the dark secret? WP: Sure. Of course! RM: My mother was a nurse, as I said. She retired. And I remember going to doctors with her all the time where she dressed up and put on perfume and we went together. Dad was off teaching and I don’t know who was watching my little brother. So I realized after I finished my internship, and as I started doing emergency medicine, I was a seeker and I was interested in psychological insight. One day I had this enormous insight that I had really wanted to outdo daddy, and in a sense win mommy’s love. And that explains why I had a certain self-conscious, almost a shame in going to medical school. So I knew before I even started medical school what it was. I literally had an experience while I was a senior in college. I was walking through the woods, there was an imaginary line suddenly in front of me, and I knew that I wasn’t ready to step over that line; it was the line into the world of adulthood. And I stepped around it. WP: Oh, didn’t we all want to do that or didn’t we do it in our own way?


WP: Was it an arduous process, medical school, or did it come easy for you? RM: Medical school was not hard for me, no. It’s a lot of work. I never had been a person who studied hard. I just was a bright student.

it was presented to me I was supposed to have it. WP: How old were you when that happened, that pivotal moment for you? RM: It was a progression, but at the pivotal moment, I was thirty.

RM: I had the incredible insight, which was; I am not ready to be in the world. I need context to cocoon for another stage of development. So that cocoon became medical school. Then after that, five years of practicing medicine, I was done with the cocoon, and I left it, never went back.

WP: Okay. So you were out of medical school, or just finishing? RM: I finished medical school at 25. WP: Wow, very quick!

WP: You were a gifted young man. Yes, a beautiful gift! RM: I was walking up Fifth Avenue to the school, when Dustin Hoffman got out of a taxi; he was walking up next to me. He’d just done Midnight Cowboy…….. long before Tootsie. I walked into the Dean’s office at medical school and I said, “I’ve just been walking up the street, a few feet away from Dustin Hoffman. He can really make a difference in the world, his voice can be heard”. You’re deadening my soul here and all of our souls here with constant memorization, “I’m leaving” The guy said. “Well, before you leave, why don’t you work with one of our therapists?” It was like a bluff, a kind of rebellion for me. So I did, and I started to do psychoanalysis at the young age of whatever I was, 22. I’ve never stopped seeking and learning. WP: Yeah. Sounds like a wonderful revelation. You are an unusual man at that level, being so devoted to your process, to be on the path where you’re constantly seeking. RM: I was just unhappy. You know, unhappiness makes you seek. WP: Well, it does. But lots of us are unhappy, and we’re comfortable being unhappy and we stay there. RM: Yes, but then, I had what you could call ‘fundamental realization’, or kind of enlightenment, an awakened consciousness. After that, I wasn’t seeking because I was unhappy. I was transformed, I was learning by just listening. I never bought a book after that. Anything that was presented to me, I read. Because I thought if

I don’t know what the limit is. I don’t want to let any form of fear or pain physical or emotional close my heart. And I know now from years of practice, decades, that who I am starts right now...

RM: And then I practiced for five years. WP: And what kind of medicine were you practicing? RM: Emergency medicine, worked in an emergency room, outpatient medicine in a teaching hospital. WP: From medical school, you hung out there for a bit or you veered off in another direction after you completed school? RM: Well, as I said, I went to medical school in New York. I did my senior year electives and internship in California. I never left California. So I practiced ER in San Francisco

Bay Area. And then these awakening experiences, sort of like spiritual puberty, just took over, eventually there was no going back. I took a leave of absence. Some of my old patients started coming to see me. They’d go to a clinic, or they’d go to the ER, and they’d say, “Where’s Dr. Moss?” People and I would say, “Well, I’m not practicing medicine now.” They’d say, “But you were such a good doctor, we want to work with you.” I’d say, “Well, you go get medical tests from the nurse practitioner or something. I’ll tell you what I think of your lab results.” They’d come to my house, and I would sit holding their hands for half an hour in silence, and then I’d look at their lab results I’d ask what’s going on in your life, and they would talk to me and they would walk out changed. Then one day I got a phone call from a psychotherapist, she said, “You’ve been working with two of my patients who’ve gone through an incredible change. What are you doing?” I said, “Well, I don’t really know that I’m doing anything. I hold their hands, sit in silence, and listen to them.” And she said, “Will you do training for me and some of my colleagues?” I said “No”. Eight months later she asked me again. Asked me to teach a small group of psychotherapist and after a short time I was doing 30 day retreats. And here I am. WP: So I want to share with you a funny story, a study that speaks to what you just shared. There was a study which had two groups of therapists, actual and pretend. One of them being lay people who were asked to just listen. The other group were indeed therapists. The people seeking help were assigned to the different groups. One group assigned to the lay people and the other to the therapists. The lay people were given direction to not give any advice but to simply nod their heads. And so the lay people just sat there and then the therapists did what therapists do. And (laughs) Later they came out and questioned all of the people as to the quality of the session. The success ratio for those people who were assigned the lay people was much higher with this group of people than it was for the real therapists. I always think it is so profound because it speaks to this Continued on Page 9

need just to be heard. We just want to share and just want someone to be there and go “ahh hmm.” RM: That is a big, big part of it. WP: It is. And then if you are in a space, a heartfelt space, as perhaps I am certain you were, it is even more powerful. It is an experience that can transform people, and it is what you have brought to the table. RM: I was in a very strong energetic space so it shifted people all of the time. WP: Right! RM: So that affected them and I was learning, I didn’t really know about it. And they did not really have any books on it or at least I did not know of any books on it at the time. But I agree with you. If we truly listen and we listen with our heart and we mirror well, that is 90% of creating a field of rapport. It is very therapeutic and it is really healing. WP: So as your career moved on, and as you were doing a different kind of work, who were the people that were mentors in

your world, and that you admired? People you perhaps mirrored? RM: The first person who truly powerfully influenced me is the man that interviewed me from medical school. He was building the medical school at the State University of New York, the Stony Brook facility. They sent me to him, his name was Edward. He was the Chair of Ethics and Humanities at George Washington and eventually Humanities. He was an MD and a PhD, he was a lot of things. He interviewed me for medical school, he started with chemistry equations and I blew most of them. He just kept asking me questions about the meaning of life, and values and then he invited me to a harp concert, and I joined him and his wife. And then he said, “I am going to recommend you to medical school”, Quite heart fully “because you are never going to be a scientist, but we need people like you in medicine”. And when I wrote my first book, the “I that is We.” I sent it to him, and he wrote the most beautiful review. WP: Oh, that is beautiful! A wonderful knowing of what he saw in you.

RM: So he was the first. And then I was an intern in Berkley, CA and I joined a group called, Seekers after Truth that was led by a guy named Claudia, he pointed me to what I didn’t want. But it connected me to certain types of meditation. And then I met a doctor, Dr. William Boujoy. He was very influential, because he was a doctor that left medicine to really work with energy and consciousness. And another person who was influential was Franklin Merrell Wolf , a mystic philosopher, who lived out in Lone Pine, California . He was an old, old man when I met him. I knew him for the last nine years of his life. He died at 98.And he was probably most at the heart level. And then the woman in my life, and the relationship (laughs) that I botched. Or that we botched together. WP: (laughs) A very unusual process with most of us, I am sure. RM: But you know that showed me that whatever level of realization you have, you have to work on your ego. So I had this experience with cosmic consciousness realization as strong as any I have ever read. Continued on Page 11

WP: So you married, once or twice? Children?

WP: Very nice! then you’ve authored several books?

RM: Yes, twice. Step children I raised for twenty-two years. One I will see tonight.

RM: Seven. And I came out with Inside Out Healing: Transforming your life through the Power of Presence. It is with Hay House. I think my most important book is Mandela Being. Mandela Being is a model of how we learn to live in our bodies in the present moment. Rather than running away from our feelings.

WP: Oh very nice, very good, it is a rewarding relationship, I am sure. RM: Well the two older ones, when I decided to leave their mother, got angry and are not talking to me. The other spent six months quiet and called me up and said, “I was hoping you would not give up on me.” I said, “No, I love you too much.” We are very close, and of course I will see him tonight. WP: How old were you when the first book came out? RM: Thirty-four, Thirty-five. I had already been working with people for four or five years. And then I just never stopped, and eventually the books got translated to other languages. I started getting invitations to Europe, then South America and then Asia. I spend most of my time in Europe or South America, and the rest of the time here.

WP: We are pretty ingenious at that. I mean we become skilled at this age to deny our emotional bodies. RM: Absolutely. WP: Yea. It is interesting time right now. What do you think of what’s occurring on the planet? I mean all of the shifts and changes that are happening. What is your perspective on all of that? RM: Well, I think we need an awareness practice or a spiritual practice that is not tied to any religion. I think I have created a very beautiful, simple model for what that could look like in those last two books. Basically, it says that they are five NOWS.

The present moment not conditioned by a thought, something like flow or deep meditation. Athletes know it. And then the four other NOWs are the NOW’s that are created about you, positive or negative and not created about beliefs or judgments of others. And they are not created by anticipating the future positive expectancy and it is like a Mandela. The now that is not conditioned, the now that awakened when I was thirty. WP: It is an interesting concept. So as I hear it, how do you see it kind of reconciling with, if we were to trust Eckhart Tolle work with the Power of Now? Of just presence, of just now and of now being the only now. RM: Eckhart Tolle book does not tell you how to do it, but he is in the state, so you feel it. My book among other things actually shows you how to do it. Eckhart Tolle talks, and I lead experiential retreats where I really work with everything that people have. Their marital issues, their health and dying issues, their financial issues. I know you can help people to transContinued on Page 27

Harried Holidays?

Your Aura Colors - Signs of Stress & Tips to be Happy

H

ow we handle `the stress of the season has a lot to do with the kind of person we are. Knowing that, we can use specific strategies to deal with holiday demands and make the season what is was meant to be- joyous. How can we know what kind of person we are? The answer is in the colors of our aura. Everyone has an aura - what science calls the electro-magnetic field. We’ve all felt them. We’ve been instantly drawn to some people and repelled by others, because we’ve felt their energy. That energy is expressed in different color bands that radiate from our bodies- what we call the aura. I have learned in my work as a professional psychic who can also see auras that our aura colors reveal very important information about us- our personality, relationship style and compatibilities, best career paths, etc. Discovering our aura color personality type and unique coping skills is a valuable key to knowing how to handle stress. Take this quiz to discover your aura color, then read on to discover your aura color personality, the signs that you are stressed, and some helpful tips tailored to help you deal with that stress and take the harried out of the holidays. Yellows are fun loving, humorous, creative, physical, generous, sensitive & natural healers.

By Pamala Oslie

Everyone has an aura - what science calls the electro-magnetic field. We’ve all felt them. We’ve been instantly drawn to some people and repelled by others, because we’ve felt their energy.

Signs of stress: You are not laughing and enjoying life. You’re avoiding, procrastinating or distracting yourself with addictions (food, alcohol, TV, sweets, drugs, caffeine, etc.) Your back or knees hurt. Tips to become happier: Spend time in nature, exercise, dance, eat healthy, play, laugh, hang out with your dog, simplify your life, smile, watch a funny movie. Greens are intelligent and driven accomplishers, often business-owners, managers, sales, etc. Signs of stress: You’ve become a workaholic; you’re frustrated, critical, controlling, arguing, yelling, blaming others, or hard on yourself. You have tight neck & shoulders, heart problems or digestive issues. Tips to become happier: Write a list of your accomplishments, appreciate everything on that list, take deep breaths, organize your space, reduce caffeine intake, reassess & write a list of your goals, trust yourself, develop a plan. Violets are visionaries, leaders, teachers, artists & humanitarians who want to help the world.


17

Signs of stress: You’ve become overwhelmed, scattered, constantly multitasking, stuck, bored, restless, or depressed; or you’re bossy, judgmental & impatient. Your thyroid may be unhealthy or your eyes may be bothering you. Tips to become happier: Meditate, travel, listen to positive music & inspirational teachers, spend time alone realigning with your visions, get involved with humanitarian projects, be with people who inspire & motivate you, travel - hopefully to foreign countries. Blues are loving, nurturing, spiritual, emotional, and perpetually counseling and helping others. Signs of stress: You’re exhausted from giving too much, sad, cry a lot, feel unappreciated, feel unlovable or unworthy, guilty, or depressed. You may have throat, breast or reproductive issues. Tips to become happier: Pray, connect with a Greater Source, walk, breathe, meditate, appreciate your home & loved ones, let go of guilt, learn to love yourself by doing good things for yourself, learn to say no, help others without over doing it. Tans are practical, logical, patient, detailoriented, reliable, and value stability & security. Signs of stress: You’re worried, anxious, impatient, frustrated, critical, bottling up anger or intense emotions, pessimistic, withdrawn or shut down. You may have headaches or eyestrain. Tips to become happier: Exercise, watch less news, take a break from the details, develop a secure financial plan, rest your eyes, breathe, read positive & optimistic information, find healthy outlets for your emotions (talking with a trusted friend), research data until you feel more secure.

Let’s Rock the Holidays: Decreasing Stress and Increasing Joy With Crystals.

C

By Dawn Menting

rystals are all about increasing positive energy vibration. Formed in the womb of mother earth they are her gifts to us, tools for wellbeing. This article addresses how you can utilize these gifts for personal empowerment as well as positively enhance an environment for family and friends; creating sacred space for celebrating love and companionship. No one will argue that the holidays, though filled with joy, can be stressful. In addition to our busy schedules, planning family gatherings and holiday parties is also placed on the

“to do” list. This is the time of year when self-care becomes most important. Crystals can help you do just that. Due to their molecular structure they emanate, clear and amplify energy. This crystalline structure makes them perfect tools for distressing, which require little attention and can be enjoyed at any time. For example; imagine a square around you and create an energy grid by placing four terminated crystals, one in each corner of this square, with their points directed toward you. You can create such a crystal set up around your work space or while reading a book or watching TV. If you enjoy a good Epson salt bath, simply place four crystals around your bath and/ or in the water (Epson salt not required). By utilizing the energy grid, you are receiving the benefits of increased energy without adding anything extra to your busy schedule.

If you are able to embrace a quiet moment and meditate with your crystals, they will offer amazing new experiences and a heightened awareness of their healing gifts. Create your crystal grid while sitting in the Yoga lotus position or lying down in Savasana (for at least 15 minutes). Feel free to hold crystals in your hands or place them on your body; for the brow chakra place a crystal on your forehead. You may notice tingling, swirling energy; you may even feel yourself vibrating. If you close your eyes, colors may swirl past your darkened eyelids. We are all unique therefore our experiences with crystals will be as well. Increased energy vibration tends to give us, focus, calm, a scene of connection, creative insights, vitality, self-esteem; all bolsters for tackling extra tasks. Being vital, centered and calm make

Rose quartz, is a pink stone that opens the heart, resulting in unconditional love. It is a perfect choice for those family reunions.

Clear quartz is a “can’t go wrong” crystal, clear as its name suggests, this crystal has the highest vibration for healing. It even increases the power of the other crystals used with it. To maintain your crystals you simply want to keep them cleared and charged.

for an elegant host/ hostess at any celebration. You have cleaned, prepared the food and set up the celebration space. Add some sparkle and magical whimsy to your decorations with crystals and give your guests the gift of increased energy vibration. This is accomplished by placing four terminated crystals in each corner of the room with the points directing the energy into the middle of the room to make a crystal grid. You can also place a crystal cluster in the center of the celebration space; bowls filled with crystals work as well. The party goers will feel inexplicably good because they are being positively affected by the crystals. The crystals are emanating positive energy and increasing the energy vibrations around them, therefore any negative energy or low vibration is being cleared away and replaced. Your guests will feel lighter and joyful.

Don’t be surprised if you look around and all of your guests have big smiles and beaming expressions. The crystals suggested in this article come from the quartz family.

Amethyst is purple, a spiritual stone that connects us to the higher realms. It is perfect for meditation and bringing serenity to any environment.

Citrine is a yellow crystal with the power of the sun. It is perfect for increasing vitality.

Quartz crystals love to be clean; running them under cool water keeps them shiny and happy. Some feel that placing them in a bath of salt water is preferred. Burning sage over them is also an easy way to maintain their energetic cleanliness. When you feel that your crystals need to be charged, placing them in the light of the full moon imbues them with the divine feminine. For masculine energy the morning sun is yummy. Supervision is advised when charging your crystals in the sun. The clear quartz will reflect the sun beam and intensify it, possibly igniting a flame. Amethyst, Citrine and Rose Quartz, if left for too long in the direct sun, will fade in color. Take care of your crystals and they will take care of you and those you love. Tap into the magic of this holiday season by giving the gift of increased energy vibration to yourself and those you cherish. Experience how these simple tools from mother earth can influence your life in a profoundly positive way. Feel calm, centered, connected, vital and joyful this holiday season with crystals. Dawn Menting is a mental health therapist, (LCSW), Crystal Healer and Reiki Master.

God

is as close to you as your

next breath

Soul Transcendence is becoming aware of yourself as a Soul and as one

with God, not as a theory but as a living reality. Your Soul is who you truly are; it is more than your body, your thoughts, or your feelings. MSIA provides tools and techniques for experiencing your Soul and your own Divinity. We focus on how to incorporate spirituality into everyday life in a workable way. We call it “practical spirituality.” It allows you to tune more and more to your Soul and to increasingly live from that awareness.

“All that you want to be, you already are. All you have to do is move your awareness there and recognize the reality of your own Soul.” —John-Roger

Reality & Innovation By Edwin Harkness Spina

This past week

a reader forwarded me an article from Business Week, entitled Is Reality the Enemy of Innovation? The author explained that what we think of as reality is merely a model, which can change. He cited examples of scientific theories that had changed over time, and concluded that if we keep this in mind, we have a better chance of creating the future vs. reinforcing the past. This is excellent advice. Knowing that these models can change is liberating, especially when contrasted with the view of reality as fixed. While very helpful, the article only scratches the surface. The reality that you perceive is not merely a model that is subject to change. Reality is almost entirely a function of your beliefs, which are ideas you accept as true, but not necessarily so. Everything you see, hear, smell, taste and feel is filtered and interpreted via your underlying beliefs. Your entire life experience is a function of your beliefs. Consequently, your beliefs are one of the most important components of your future success. If you are seeking to innovate or striving for a goal, whether it’s designing a new product, attracting a mate, getting fit or creating abundance, your beliefs will profoundly influence your likelihood of success. Henry Ford explained this concisely, “Whether you think you can or think you can’t - you are right.” If you are not attaining your goals,

the problem most likely is not that you lack the knowledge to accomplish them, but rather that you have preconceived ideas, i.e., beliefs, that act as obstacles to your success. Often it’s more important to UNLEARN than to LEARN. A friend of mine wanted to take up fly fishing, which involves casting to a particular spot in a mountain stream and it seemed to require great skill. Ray didn’t know anything about this sport and so he called Greg, a tournament fly caster, to ask how long it would take for Greg to teach him to become proficient at casting. Greg asked, “Do you have any prior experience?” Ray said, “No.” Greg said, “I can teach you to become an exceptional fly caster in less than an hour.” “How is that possible?” Ray asked. “My neighbors have been fishing for years and they still haven’t got it down.” Greg explained, “That’s exactly the problem. Teaching them would take a lot longer because I have to get them to unlearn everything that they’ve previously been taught.” In other words, it’s not what you don’t know that can stop you; it’s what you think you know - which may or may not be true. Experienced venture capitalists and business financiers often joke that many entrepreneurs would never start new companies if they knew how the odds were stacked against them and all the unseen obstacles that lay in their path. Typically, these entrepreneurial risk takers don’t have advanced degrees,

and that’s the point. They just act without preconceived notions. The entrepreneurs don’t know and don’t focus on potential limitations. Thank heaven they don’t - the world would be devoid of much innovation if “reality” intruded on their visionary minds. Here’s a trick that often helps with beliefs: If you’re like most people, you probably identify beliefs as either true or false. A more constructive way would be to characterize them as supportive or non-supportive to your stated goal. By doing this, you defuse any emotions you might have with them and unlink your beliefs with previous associations that may lock you into preconceived attitudes or behaviors. Don’t worry if they’re true or false. Your goal should be to UNLEARN, ELIMINATE, or NEUTRALIZE non-supportive beliefs and only accept supportive beliefs, regardless of whether you might think of them as true or false. Remember, you can always find some evidence to support one belief over another. Furthermore, based on the electrical patterns that fire in your brain, your brain can’t tell the difference between an actual experience or one that you’re imagining. You may as well choose beliefs that are supportive. So don’t let “reality” get in your way the next time you’re asked to come up with an innovative solution to some problem or would like to attain some goal that you’ve set for yourself. Chances are it’s only a limiting belief that’s holding you back. Act in spite of your fears. Just do it and chances are you’ll surprise yourself. WP

form themselves if you teach people how to start their lives right now in the present moment.

RM: Struggling, because they are so advanced.

WP: Nicely put. Right absolutely! So, where is your future taking you? RM: Because for me, my Achilles heel is in relationship and intimacy, I continue to learn there. I have a partner that I live with, a woman. We have been working together for many years but we did not start living together until about two and half years ago. I am very interested in intimacy, not just on the sexual level, but in all ways. Most of the suffering that I see, everywhere that I go, it’s interpersonal. It is relational because of the stories we tell ourselves, about ourselves, in a relationship or about the other person in our relationship. I have worked with some of the highest performing people in the world, who are absolutely emotionally and psychologically crippled in terms of what they believe about life, they don’t have a clue.

WP: Yes indeed, but just having a knowing. It is no longer a kind of a linear process for them it is already deep inside of them.

WP: I certainly think it is the venue. RM: Where we are going? Awareness practice as it enters into popular consciousness will balance out our environmental, so we are going towards. We are all earthlings and we are going towards and it is only now and what you do in the now, because that is where you live. Vulnerability, that is where you heal relationship. It is for any age group, once the ego is developed enough that you can start to question it. WP: There are some incredibly advanced children on the planet today. I mean startling.

in a sense, of yours. I enjoyed that entire conference, it was wonderful! Thank you Tony!

RM: It is in the collective. The other thing that I think is in the collective, I would call the awakening or the reawakening of the deeper feminine or the intelligence of the deeper feminine. So, in a relationship, that means you need to be an individual but not individualistic. So you can’t have your position in a relationship, you have to say what the relationship wants. If you are a citizen, what does my community want? What the world really wants? We are inventing ourselves and I think the notion or in relation to notion of the return of the Buddha in the collective conscious. But setting people free to do that and showing them how they can, and there is absolutely no limit to how far you can go. That is where I am. So I will continue the rest of my life, one person at a time, fifty people in a room, five days, and ten days teaching. WP: I think you do a wonderful job teaching. I was privileged to be in a workshop that you taught. A couple of them actually, way back when you were attending the science and consciousness seminars back in Albuquerque and then Santa Fe. RM: Yeah, Yeah. And I remember coming in contact with you and it was a charm and a pleasure to hear you and be a student

WP: Yes, so kudos to you. It is always a pleasure to connect with a face that brings much wisdom and profound teaching. RM: Thank you! it is a pleasure to hear that. WP: I just want to say that I am an admirer of what you do. I think it is so critical, especially at this time. We are all asking or being invited to deal with what we have to deal with. RM: Exactly. WP: And so it is wonderful and beautiful to have people like you, who are there to guide and help to the population. RM: I feel really blessed and privileged, and did not know my life could awaken this way, nor did I know that I could invent myself the way I slowly am. WP: I like that expression of matching yourself, so you are on the path to reinventing and reinventing. RM: Continuously! I don’t know what the limit is. I don’t want to let any form of fear or pain -physical or emotional close my heart. And I know now from years of practice, decades, that who I am starts right now, and I can be very vulnerable in every Continued on Page 36

Dreaming Heaven:

Who Am I Really And The P owe r O f Forgiveness In

the beginning, there was the Light. The Light came form the Source, the Great Mystery, Creator, God-all terms for the World behind the world, the Reality behind our reality, the Sun behind the sun. It seems that if we sit with any great aspect of life for long enough, we come to a place of more questions than answers. Even science, with all its facts and figures, is only a snapshot of information, an interpretation of reality and truth. Creation is simply too vast, too multidimensional, and ever-changing to be defined by any definition or way of existing. Our attachment to the need to know how life is and who we are has driven us through time. We humans find a sense of safety and confidence in the belief that we “know.” We have been on a great journey of learning by experience, education, definition, projection, and reasoning. We use these tools to take in all that goes on within and around us, and we process our journey into a story of life that works for us.

BY LEE MCCORmICK We create identities and roles to which we give all our attention and in which we put all of our faith. My incarnations in this life have been rancher, commodities trader, musician, father, husband, son, addict, recovered person, teacher, CEO, and on and on. They were all roles I played in my story of life-some great and some not so great. As I have evolved in my life, I have come to realize that who I am really is the one who has lived through all of these phases and stages. I am the one born into the form of being human, and I am the one who has learned and grown, experienced, and taken on the beliefs that defined my perspectives and identities. I was not my beliefs or identities, they were what I believed about who I was. They were aspects of my life’s evolution and experience. I am the Light, the consciousness--that came into this world in the form of a baby boy. From that time on, I have lived

this journey one day, one choice, and one experience at a time. To return to me-the Light, the Spirit-and to be free to live my life without all the attachments I had accumulated in my first 40 years of life, I had to find a way to let go of my belief in what I “knew.” I had to find a way to put the past behind me, rather than live with it wrapped around me like a wellworn security blanket. I had come to confuse “comfortable” with “familiar.” I found refuge in the predictability of the familiar, mistaking it for comfort. The unknown of a bigger, more open life, was unfamiliar. I had been taught that I should appreciate material things and not expect anything beyond my basic comforts and needs. If I wanted something more than the cultural norms, it meant I was ungrateful or selfish. I lived within these rules until something snapped, and I saw myself as a programmed character who had lost an authentic connec-


29

In looking for answers, I learned some basic tenets to healing and reconnecting to my Heart and Spirit. I learned that I had to develop a practice of forgiveness. First, I had to forgive myself for all the ways I had sold myself out. I had put my faith in a great matrix of beliefs and stories about life that, as a child, I had no idea might not be true for me as a unique human being. My truth is mine; it is not necessarily something that fits into a blanket belief system. In forgiving and learning to release my attachment to the judgments that were interwoven throughout my beliefs, identities, and experiences, I began clearing my mind’s view of life and myself. Forgiveness was the key to cleaning my perceptions and uncovering my reality. In many cases, I simply had to forgive others for not living up to my expectations. That was a big one. People are who they are and do what they do, not because of me, but by their own free will. I have no right to demand that others fit into

tion to Self! I was not happy or content. I would not buy into the official story that something was wrong with me because life wasn’t good enough for me. I had a choice: to either live by medicating my discomfort with food, drugs, money, gambling, sex, excessive working out, diet fads, religion, on and on (all of those options our culture offers up as solutions to our feelings of disconnection) or I could find the way back to me and who I am really.

In forgiving and learning to release my attachment to the judgments that were interwoven throughout my beliefs, identities, and experiences, I began clearing my mind’s view of life and myself.

the role I might want to cast them in. The other side of forgiveness is to free myself from the energetic connection to the objects of my judgments. When we project judgment, we attach ourselves to the objects of our judgment. When I looked at it that way, I realized I didn’t want any connection to those things. I began the practice of not indulging in the beliefs that held my judgments in place. This is a practice. It takes time to undo our attachments, but we can do it because we are the ones who created them. By taking responsibility and shifting our attention away from the loop of thoughts that support the judgments, we shift our attention to thoughts of Light, freedom, running water… whatever works for you. By taking 100% responsibility for our life (owning our part in all of it), we can re-create what we have created-our relationships to our Self and the world around us. That’s a key to Dreaming Heaven: the power of personal responsibility and the practices of freeing our Self through forgiveness for the sake of living our authenticity. Blessings!

Creating the Holidays With Those In Spirit

As

By Medium Hollister Rand

one year ends and another begins, it is easy to get caught up in the expectations of the season. Commercials on TV show happy families around holiday tables, singing carols and children opening up perfectly wrapped gifts. However, holidays can be difficult when our own experiences (present and past) don’t measure up to the advertising ideal. Here are some suggestions for creating a holiday season with the spirits in mind. Decorate. Adding decorations during the holidays, especially the kind the spirits enjoyed while on earth, doesn’t go unnoticed by them. During a private session, a son in spirit asked his parents to decorate a big Christmas tree in the family room with all the ornaments he had made through the years. He didn’t like the “little tree on the table.”

His mother confirmed that the year her son had passed, the only Christmas decoration was a small table tree which had been given to her as a gift. She was happy to report later that when the family gathered around the big, beautiful tree her son asked for, they all felt his presence with them.

Eat. Those living in the spirit world talk about food -- a lot. It seems as though they never miss a meal that we make with them in mind. I received an email recently from a young woman whose beloved grandmother had passed. She wrote: “You had mentioned my mother getting a new recipe book and/ or cooking some foods my grandmother liked. My mom never ever cooks but it turns out that she came home from work that day with a new cookbook, and 2 days before, she had in fact cooked my grandmother’s favorite pumpkin-spice chili recipe.” Those in spirit may give you the smells of their favorite recipes. A woman who came to see me thought she was going crazy because she kept smelling barbecued ribs. Since her husband’s death, she hadn’t even fired up the grill. She was surprised and delighted when her husband brought up in our session that he was busy making his


33

secret recipe for barbecued ribs.

Remember. Spirits love to remember the good times, and they want you to do the same. Sometimes the last memory we have of someone we love is the dying scene at the hospital or the harsh words said shortly before a car accident or suicide. Spirits don’t spend a lot of time on those memories. They like to recount the happy times. Those in spirit also like to remember times of simple sharing as well. A father in spirit reminded his daughter of the many nature walks they took together before he fell ill and passed. He promised to join her each day as she and her dog walk around the local reservoir. Forgive. One of the most significant and profound ways to bring those in spirit close to you is to forgive them for dying and leaving you behind. Releasing the anguish, the anger and the guilt we carry about a loved one’s passing dismantles the wall between life and death. When you ask to feel a loved one near, also consider saying the following: “I forgive you for not taking care of yourself the way you should have

Sing. Loved ones in spirit love music, especially the music they loved on earth. So plug in the iPod and share their music. One mother got a shock (and thrill) when she got in her car and turned on the radio. She expected to hear classical music, but instead, rap came blaring out! Before her son died, they would argue about what station to listen to while driving. She was happy to let him win the argument that time.

Releasing the anguish, the anger and the guilt we carry about a loved one’s passing dismantles the wall between life and death.

so that your life could have been longer. I forgive you for not beating the addiction that took you so young. I forgive you for choosing to end your own life and I forgive myself for not preventing it. I forgive myself for _______ _______ ” Just fill in the blank. Forgiveness allows love to flourish and can diminish feelings of separation. Know that those you love will hear you and draw close for the celebrations of life. Indulge. Rather than overeating, drinking to excess and jamming 25 parties into the 12 days of Christmas, consider indulging in peace, love and joy. The simple way to do this is to choose to “unplug” for several minutes a day during the season - - or choose to retreat for an entire day if possible. Allow yourself to sleep in. (Without sleep interruptions, the spirits have a greater opportunity to visit in dreams.) Spend a few minutes a day sitting quietly. (The subtle messages of the spirits are more easily heard without noise and distractions.) Allow joy to come to you rather than trying to chase it down. (By expressing gratitude for what you already have and appreciating small pleasures, joy shows up effortlessly.) Appreciate the people in your life right now and experience holidays in the present moment. Spirits live in the eternal present moment so that is the best place, actually the only place, to make contact. Hollister Rand provides specific messages from loved ones living in the spirit world.

What Are They

SAYING?

e

ach month Whole Person Magazine and Lori Spagna will be taking your questions regarding animal communication, animal telepathy, animal health and nutrition, as well as Spiritual behavioral training and partnership with your pets. Please write in to the magazine at wholepersonmagazine@gmail.com and we may even answer your question in Whole Person Magazine.

Healthy Pet Food Tip of the Month: My Spiritually Minded Animal Loving Clients ask me all the time, ‘Lori, what do you feed your dogs, and more important, what do I feed mine’? In a related follow up question from a recent Whole Person Magazine Reader, she asked, “What can I do about the food related allergies my dog is experiencing? Our vet has no idea!” Most of the food we buy for our pets is garbage. Yes, you heard me correctly: Garbage.

By Lori Spagna

Even the products you are getting from your veterinarian are most likely not very good (after all, vets are not nutritional experts, they are only experts on treatments of existing physical ailments, and in my opinion, must rise to the occasion to act more from a place of prevention, rather than band aid cures, but that’s another story all together). In fact, if it’s sold in the grocery store, the veterinarian’s office, or any fast food related store, it’s probably junk food, marketed as quality pet food. Even if it claims to be the best quality, if it has anything like corn, wheat, fillers, by-products, soy, and even added vitamins and minerals, it’s not quality pet food, no matter how it’s marketed and no matter where it is sold. Veterinarians are not nutritional experts. They openly admit that in vet school they are rarely given any nutritional training whatsoever. Most of the food they sell is sold to them via expert marketers and sales people who intern provide them a large profit for reselling the food. What are you feeding your pet?

In general, your pet should be eating the food of his or her ancestors, so in the case of canines, that means wolves and in the case of felines, that means the wild cats. What do wolves and wild cats in the wild eat? All natural fish, fowl and game. That’s it. They don’t eat wheat, they don’t eat corn (which are synthetic products), they don’t eat soy or artificial bi-products and their food is never cooked or baked. There is an enormous amount of emerging science which conclusively indicates that the quality of our pets’ lives (and our own) is linked to the foods they (and we eat). I recommend an all natural, preferably organic, raw food diet for our pets. Raw is easier to digest and easier to absorb. Even the poop is ‘cleaner’, less smelly and easier to pick up. The benefits of all natural, raw, organic food are overwhelming. Raw food literally keeps our pets out of the vet’s office. Raw food, along with healthy exercise, assists in the prevention of most

Animal Companion Holistic Healing Tip:

Are you using drops (ie, Frontline, Advantage, Revolution) on the back of your pet’s neck to protect against f leas, ticks or mosquitoes? These products are actually pesticides which are being applied to the largest organ of the body, the skin, which actually eats everything which is placed onto it.

of the physical ailments we see in our pets (and in ourselves), and ultimately, when our pets reach the older ages, they spend less time in the veterinarian’s office, which ultimately saves you time, energy and money, not to mention all that needless pain, suffering and worrying which comes with illness.

years, including while I was living in Maui, where mosquitoes and f leas are rampant, is called Pet Alive by Parasite Dr. It is all natural and extremely effective at preventing tick, f lea and mosquito infestation (and by the way, it is the mosquitos which cause heart worms in pets). I also highly recommend a Flea and Tic prevention product which you can easily find via Holistic Veterinarian Dr. Karen Becker’s website.

Our vets and other professionals in the animal service communities need to learn this. Please say NO to harmful pesticidal drops; say YES to all natural preventative methods. I promise ~ your pets will thank you for it!

way, and I don’t use anything, particularly in my life, to protect me from vulnerability anymore. There is always a new frontier somewhere within us, but I never knew that I can reach the kind of life I have right now. I did not believe that was imaginably possible. WP: And here you are. That is quite fantastic! So in the short term where are you off to? RM: In the short term, I am going to see my stepson tonight. And then I am going to drive and pick up a woman who is a French/ English interpreter in Burbank, and then drive to Long Pine California. See my 26 Europeans from four or five different countries, who either have English as a second language or French as a first, and they will retreat with me for seven days at the home of the deceased Franklin Merrell Wolf, and so that is where I am going. On Saturday I will pick her up and on Sunday I will start with the group, and then we will go seven solid days, and I go to them in the winter. They come to California and get to be in an incredible alpine at the base of Mount Whitney. Only recently we have moved away from using kerosene lamps, it is an absolute pleasure to teach without having to record everything and the meeting room is small, it is like a living room. Everything we do for experiential work is outside, everything. And because of my leg right now they are going to pretty much do everything with me in a chair. I found out that I can have fun in a chair. WP: I understand you have some retreats coming up? RM:Yes, I have a retreat in Ojai in November. I used to do many retreats in the U.S and Europe. This is something that I have done for thirty five, thirty seven years. In the U.S, they are smaller, and I do this with my partner. In Europe, we are 80 plus people, plus a team of 100 people, and in Europe we do it longer, because they are use to taking longer vacations . WP: Oh yeah they have a lot more freedom. Oh great! Who are your current mentors? I don’t want to describe them as mentors, and we talked a little on that. But who, and I am sure that has shifted over time. So who would the people be today? RM: For relationship, it is a man named Jack

Zimmerman who use to be here in the L.A. area, and his wife Jacqueline McCanless, who did pioneering work. They wrote a book called: Flesh and Spirit. They are in their eighties. We signed a documentary or an interviewed documentary of them in Hawaii where they retired, it is on my website. Jack and Jacqueline also had been incredibly important to me in my relationship, and how I have really addressed the work and what the patriarchy has done in conditioning me and other people, and how to truly learn from women emotionally, psychologically, sensually, sexually. WP: Sure. RM: I would say they are the most, when I wanted I would contact Jack and integrate it over months and then we would chat again. I do not have any other people. Um Abraham Lincoln comes to mind. WP: No, but I implied that you touched on that with the femininity with women because I think today I think one of the really profound things we can do, you and I can do as men is in a sense to support the feminist movement, I mean that is so critical. I always think women are so much more powerful than men. That is my opinion. I just think that Women are much more heartfelt, they are more in tuned, they are more dialed into the planet. I am sure there are lots of men that are too, but I think by and large women have an easier connection there RM: I agree. I think you are right, between body and heart, body love, sexuality and the environment. They have something more intrinsically than men do. Though as you say, many men can develop that and have, without losing their masculinity. WP: Their masculinity, absolutely. RM: But, as I said earlier that return of the deep feminine is an essential part of the evolution of the collective conscious right now, and that is one of the reasons why I am doing so much with couples. To keep learning how to best support or answer the question, not what does he want or what does she want, but what does the relationship want. And teach people about the field that they create and the way they listen to each other, and the way they are present with each other. And how that field can heal them or not. WP: It is a good point because I think we look at the relationship, by and large differ-

ently and I think there is a gentleman that just passed away, Dr. William Glasser. I am not sure if you are familiar with him, he makes a nice metaphor in looking at the world, and looking at a relationship as a platform and the commitment it takes to stay on the platform. (Laughs), both parties are committed to be here. We can push in different ways, but we have to ultimately say, “We are here, and we are going to make this all happen and we are going to give in ways that we never have, and never thought we were capable of.” I think relationships are so powerful because they invite all that. We can grow individually by ourselves, or go hang out in a cave some place and have great growth, but I think relationships are really the one venue which offers the most possibility. RM: Woo! WP: Laughs. RM: Woo absolutely. I talked about inventing myself in the context to relationships, because this is what is really fascinating to me. And having that experience of cosmic consciousness and having learned how to ground and integrated it. It is still an enormous thing to love one person. And not just love them, but somehow be a disciple of the relationship with one person. WP: Right. RM: And I think we are in the process of inventing what real relationship is, and it will never end. I think as women become more and more empowered, men have to know how to serve that empowerment without losing their own sense of integrity and Masculinity. WP: Yes Absolutely. RM: I think that relationships can’t be invented just by women or just by men. It really is, and by the way it can happen to any two people who are committed, two women, two men I don’t care. As soon as you make a deep commitment to each other and you want to invent what relationship is, you are on a path. Nobody has laid down the ground rules, there are some who have gone deeply that can give us some guidelines like Jack and Jacqueline. And that for me, in general, we are and always will be, in every aspect of human endeavor constantly inventing ourselves and Continued on Page 39

A

Making

miracle we commonly hear about these days is that of a person dying of cancer whom is informed by their physician that they are not responding to treatment and their demise is imminent. Then the previously skeptical patient seeks out a holistic healing method, anything from laying hands, to a macrobiotic diet, to being the focus of prayer circle. Upon the patient’s return to the doctor, they receive shocking news. Today’s tests no longer show any trace of cancer. The malignant tumor has completely disappeared followed by the patient’s full recovery, the explanation of which is – “It’s a miracle.”

Miracles

This example fits all three modern day definitions of a miracle.

1) Science has successfully demonstrated that the most effective way to treat cancer is through chemo and radiation, which often eliminates the disease. Therefore when cancer is cured through any alternative treatment, it demonstrates a contradiction of scientific laws. 2) The sudden recovery from a terminal

disease through holistic treatment is a rare occurrence, and to qualify as a miracle, the occurrence must be rare.

3)

The combination of the inexplicable recovery and the rare occurrence are evidence of divine intervention. But are these three definitions accurate? By thinking so, you limit yourself of observing and creating miracles. A Course in Miracles defines miracles, at their most basic level, as changes in perception. Is the sunrise a miracle? When we focus on one closely, it definitely seems miraculous and certainly it would be -- if a sunrise only occurred once a year. But since it’s common and always on schedule, how could it possibly be a miracle? It depends on perspective, doesn’t it? So the first way to create miracles is to realize we don’t actually have to create them at all. We simply have to uncover them

Real BY David Spetner

through changing our perception. Then suddenly, miracles are everywhere. Suppose we have someone that we love more than anything we could have imagined. Many people are blessed with this kind of relationship but don’t necessarily see it as a miracle, and certainly don’t acknowledge it daily. But what happens when this loved one departs this life, whether prematurely or through age? When they’re gone, we feel so much anguish and loss that suddenly we realize they were a miracle in our life. But weren’t they a miracle every day we were together? Or can we only see the miracle once it’s gone? Nothing stops us from observing miracles every day. As we do, our eyes are open and magically we realize our life is full of miracles. But has anything rare or supernatural occurred? Not necessarily, we’ve simply chosen to change our perspective to see the miracle as it is. Miracles need not be created, they’re divinely revealed -- and they are revelations of our own making. Let’s examine another shift in changing perception. Most people believe that the best way to get a miracle is to pray to God to grant one, and upon delivery, we are very grateful. But here’s a different, more “miracle-making” perspective. What if the reality is that we experience the miracle first and then pray to God with gratitude? If we change our definition of a miracle to incorporate gratitude, a lot more miracles will be popping up in our lives.

The truth is that some of the most common occurrences in our lives are indeed miraculous; we just choose not to view them that way. Most of us treat miracles with an attitude of, “Well, God, what have you done for me lately?” Imagine giving a child gifts so often that the child stops thanking us for each gift individually. They do this because when gifts are this common, they don’t seem like gifts. Then one day the child decides that although they already have all these gifts, they now want and need something much bigger. So they come to us and say, “If you really loved me, you’d give me a pony.” Forget the child, isn’t that what we’re doing? We discount everything God gives us daily – the sunrise, our food, our loved ones, our jobs, our talents, etc. etc. etc. -- everything in our lives until something comes along that we really, really want -- like a miracle to cure our friend of terminal cancer. So consider this miracle-making shift in perspective. If we look at everything in our lives as a miracle, and we hear that our friend is dying, we’ll be able to see a miracle there no matter what the final consequence. Perhaps our friend will recover and that will clearly be a miracle. But if we are so practiced in seeing everything in our lives as miracles, or at least miraculous opportunities, there will be a shift. Then even if our friend expires, we’ll cry and mourn them, but we’ll also be convinced that in some way, this is a miracle too. These are the real tools to create miracles. Look right now at your surroundings and really notice them. Then observe this page, your fingers touching the page, and your magnificent mind taking this all in. If these aren’t miracles, what are?

relationship is probably the most important place right now. Because if two people can find a way to invent themselves into something that takes them beyond their limitations, then a community can; and then maybe nations can; and then maybe religions can; and then we get to something profound. I really do think that it is not just one person at a time, right now it is that, but it is one couple at a time too. WP: I want to ask you a question. It is a question I ask everybody because the magazine is called the Whole Person. “Is Dr. Moss a whole person?” RM: Unless he tells himself a story that he is not. WP: (Laughs) Ok, that’s very nice! I want to take a moment because it was such a delight, to thank you for taking your time and making your way down here. Sharing, and just being as open and honest as you were. I like what you said earlier about not having any barri-

ers around you, that are going to take you here and there. But just being who you are. It is a pleasure connecting with the authentic you. RM:Me too! Me too with you, Thank you, Thank you. WP: Thank You. RM: I have a workshop coming up in Jan 23 in Golden, Colorado. It is an opportunity for people in essence to reset their basic energy structure, and then lead with the tools to be able to sustain that. Nobody sustains any form of any transformative experience but to grow themselves into. I give them the tools to invent themselves in any aspect of their lives. But they first need to have an experience, I said there were five NOW’s, they need to have an experience of that central now in the Mandela, the NOW not conditioned by thought that is deep, deep in the body. And so, it is a highly experiential work.

WP: Right. Sounds extraordinary. I’m certain it will be enormously successful. RM: Thank You. WP: How might they contact you? RM: I have a YouTube channel too, And Facebook as well. The YouTube channel has videos that are instructional and relatively short. And there is a free E course on the website that tens of thousands of people take, which is about the Mandela process. I teach people how to recognize the stories that start over in the present moment. So that is a good thing for people to look for. WP: We will encourage them to look. It’s been an honor. RM:(Laughs), Thank you.

2013 Astrological Psychology

December

Aries - 3/21 – 4/19 The most obvious hurdle to your unfolding is sorrow. You came in with a certain amount of unresolved sorrow, you inherited another bit of sorrow from your parents and this lifetime has dealt you circumstances in which you perceived a loss. The good news is that you have the tools to turn inward and go beyond perception. There the absolute will reveal to you all that you are ready and prepared to experience/know at this time. The stress you are juggling is all self-created and the result of a belief. This belief tells you that appearances are important and will keep you safe. In the future, you are scheduled for a great flowering of sweetness, beauty, wealth and love. Prepare now; let go; be in the flow; and embrace each moment! Taurus - 4/20 – 5/20 You tend to sit back and bask in your success. With every success comes the opportunity to start again, as a child, to receive the next more powerful and special blessing. Your playfulness facilitates the blessings of the light that lights your way, your presence and the presence of all those around you. You have learned to operate beyond the illusion of everyday life. It is your ability to recognize that illusion that brings you so much joy and happiness. Your playfulness allows you to participate without a lot of ego. Keep it up please; we need more of that on the planet. Being alone is much different than being lonely. Notice the totality of your aloneness and in that aloneness its fullness. Both are there when you are by yourself and when you are with others. This is the key that deepens your connectedness to the Oneness. Every time you let go of what you are holding onto, you are for a moment without support. Then you connect again. All the emptiness, the fullness, the aloneness, and the totality of All That Is, is there when you let go of all ‘needed’ support!

Gemini - 5/21 – 6/20 There is an opportunity for you to acquire a ‘new vision’ that reveals what is beyond illusion once you cease comparing yourself to others. You will also have to perceive and understand that being alone is much different than being isolated, sad, and unhappy. It is partially your clinging to the past that causes you pain and causes you to have the perception of carrying a heavy load. Part of the problem revolves around your clinging to the success you have had like a miser who is afraid of losing! This new vision calls for you to rise above what you know and to travel to places you don’t even know exist! This can only happen when and if you let go and live in the moment. Patience is a key for you. Allow the growth to happen, and as it is happening welcome in the pink aura of new life - success without explanation and sweetness that only a mother can know.

Cancer - 6/21 – 7/22 For Cancers, this month is about the ghost, about being prepared to fight and holding on to the protective armor you have around you. You have a warrior aspect that believes that it is your job to protect others and to call out danger. While this is a noble and lofty job, does this job really belong to you? It is one thing to follow your guidance and another to continue operating as if you are going to be called into action as protector of the world at any moment. Somehow you are juggling elements from the past in order to keep from moving forward. Your belief system is holding onto a ‘moral duty’ to fight evil, again supporting your readiness to get into a fight. The change that is swirling all around you is uncovering more and more of the fire in your belly. Be aware of the belief that if you let go of what you hold to be your ‘moral duty’ you will lose. The effort to suppress, sort out, and/or deal with your issues is wearing you out and

is the direct cause of your holding onto what you know. Welcome the concept of allowing, at least for now. In the future, your success will cause you to want to sit back and enjoy what you have achieved. This is a perfect signal for you to redouble your efforts to move forward, invite more love to come forth, and to accept what is with gusto. Leo - 7/23 – 8/22 You keep yourself safe by juggling apparently meaningful fact and the meaning of certain experiences that you have had. What you do not know is that there is immeasurable abundance that is right there for you. Stop the juggling and you will accrue! Your innocence is the doorway to unbounded love. The belief that your innocence is gone is a mistake. Beyond what you have done and beyond what has been done to you in this lifetime and in all past lifetimes, is the image and likeness of God. That doorway is obscured by your mind making mountains out of clouds. Giving up in the Void is a recipe for sorrow, sadness and pain. Sit in silence, in the Void and receive a new vision and an expanded understanding from the field of all possibilities. Also know that you will have to continue to shed the conditioning you carry. Wanting to blend in runs deep - way beyond what you realize. Learn the art of standing up and being seen and counted on for who you are and what you stand for without purposefully harming others.

Virgo – 8/23 – 9/22 Hanging on to what you have as if it is all there is, creates lack. On the other hand, giving freely of what you know creates another opportunity. Slow down and notice that what you have has greatly increased over your life. Now is the time to consciously move forward and into the Light. The miser is held in place by stress created by the belief that keeping up ap-


41

pearances is better than letting the chips fall where they will! Have you become so busy keeping the appearances going, juggling past successes and holding the string on setting off fireworks that you are spending little time nurturing the field of all possibilities? The future calls for being playful in order to keep the light of awareness coming in. Be playful every day.

Libra - 9/23 – 10/22 Listen to your inner voice, as there is tremendous wisdom there. There is the wisdom from many species available to you, especially now. It is your receptivity that will carry you beyond your current comfort level. The wisdom of the Mother comes flowing in. As strange as it sounds, you must celebrate and dance in order to find the presence of wisdom. Believe it and you will see. You intensity is supporting your process and right now your intensity must adhere to your inner voice. In your intensity, you will find the face of your inner voice. It will show up is many wonderful ways and, you will find peace. Scorpio - 10/23 – 11/21 The rebel’s time has come. It is the energy that makes the rebel buck what is. Now you must buck the status quo, with some insight into the dream for your life that you had as a small child. The time has come to move on to a deeper realization. So far, you have allowed the status quo to win out with inaction. However, as you realize this, and cease and desist the comparative analysis you can make progress. Your insides compared to others outsides or your outsides compared to others outsides is a waste of time, unfair and will require you to travel into unfamiliar territory. You will find safety in recognizing that fear is a product of your mind. Plug into the rebel’s intensity and the light will burn through the fear, which will leave you in sorrow. This sorrow is temporary and very important to your journey. The sorrow is the doorway to the void, which at first may look to be even worse than sorrow. Have faith and courage that within is the image you are ready for, resulting in a huge success. As you nest in the void, you will awaken to a knowing that the void and the sorrow belong to all who have been and will

be in the world. All of us face these trials sooner or later, to some larger or lesser degree. Have faith and trust in what you find in the depth of your being, for this is what was there in the beginning; love. As your path unfolds and as you grow older, practice being friendly to all who cross your path, regardless of their outward appearance.

Sagittarius - 11/22 – 12/21 All along your path, at each point of growth you will understand more as you realize that you need to break through your conditioning. With each breakthrough, the child in you comes out a little further to play. Embrace what is present. Embracing what is and what is the reflection is important. Conditioning limits what is perceived in the void. Find the light by being alone with yourself. You are experiencing a rebirth. Blessings are coming to you. Deep in the rhythm of the ‘familiar’ is the guidance to step up into the light even while you are riding on the back of the furious past. You are a champion. Your creativity that is allowing your process to unfold so sweetly and smoothly for the Divine Mother, is uncovering for you! So much more is available to and for you. Blessings! Capricorn - 12/22 – 1/19 You will have to break through the mask of the present to participate in the fullness of the light. Although this mask is filled with infinite layers, realization that there is a mask on the present is good to accept. Guard your tendency to throw the baby out with the bathwater and/or withdrawing. In all your circumstances, there is a journey into being ordinary rather than wanting to be extraordinary, even though extraordinary occurrences are bound to occur. There is great healing in surrendering to the present as if it is just the most ordinary and perfect thing. Feeling guilty arises from time to time, whether you recognize it or not! Those that recognize the particulars of the guilt will break through easily and those that are yet to recognize the guilt will also breakthrough easily, as soon as you are ready. To break through guilt, rise above the circumstances of that guilt. Your breakthroughs are coming one after another, so consider each break-

through as ordinary so that you will continue to receive. If ego takes credit there is a slowing down. Ordinariness is akin to receiving a healing. Bask in just how ordinary life is, which opens the doors to the blessings of the light.

Aquarius - 1/20 – 2/18 Dancing in the light reveals the purpose of your life, so dance in the light often. The rebel within is supporting your dance. Especially now, listen and follow your inner voice. What you hear will definitely produce growth. While your desire to dance has been stretched and pulled leaving you suspended between what appears to be two immovable choices, that is only an appearance. The burden that you identify with is real only because you identify with it. The change that you suspect is available is real. It is time to let go of what you are clinging to for fear’s sake. As you let go, you will start traveling to unknown destinations and you will consider this dangerous only because of the conditioning you still carry. That conditioning appears to be a layering onto your Soul, which it is. Take that conditioning off and you will experience a completion, as you move forward. Slowly or quickly, take off the conditioning and complete an important piece. Pisces - 2/19 – 3/20 Harmony is in the light of awareness. It is there for you now! Know that your awareness is in the light within. There is more integration happening than ever before. You are aware of how integration begins, and you are discovering where it has taken you. While there is a secret part of you that wants to put it off, to be safe, now is the time to just do it and move forward. The totality is within your reach and all you have to do is to let go of what you are holding on to. To let go, you will need to surrender rather than be in a fight mode. You will have to act the fool rather than wait for logical and rational indications. However, as you turn inward you will fly. As you fly, you will be in the presence of circumstances that result in a completion that you never expected. The completion will slide into place smoothly and easily. Now the stage is set for a real adventure. www.Discerning-Wisdom.com Swaha@Discerning-Wisdom.com
