THE POWER and WEAKNESS of FEAR

I have been trying like crazy to think of what I can write about after these last two crazy years...finally, it hit me and it is a subject about which I am passionate - FEAR!!!

When my dad had his stroke in August of 2011, I immediately reverted back to my old, fearful and controlling self.  I was determined to force the process of his recovery and in doing so, I not only made myself miserable, but I made everyone around me just as crazy.  I was absolutely surrounded by and operating from a place of deep fear.  

Obviously, this was understandable given the circumstances; however, by approaching the entire journey from fear, I was unable to receive or even know how to ask for the divine help and intervention that both my father and I needed.  My vibration was far to low.

Fear is a very stagnating place...when we are in fear, we vibrate at a very, very low energy.  Consequently, we cannot solve any problems which require a higher vibration for solution. Science (specifically quantum theory) has proven that we are not solid, but instead total energy which vibrates at changing levels.  Additionally, this same science has revealed that we cannot solve a problem from an energy lower or equal to the energy of that specific problem - we MUST seek a higher level of vibration in order to find the solution. 

Have you ever noticed that when you concentrate on a problem and stay in that problem, you end up only circling the problem, but rarely finding a solution to it?  However, when you get out of your own way and do something that raises your vibration and emotional state, you suddenly are "given" the solution to the problem...it is as if by magic that you receive the answer!

Recently, I have been having a terrible time sleeping through the night.  During my dad's illness, I became used to staying awake when he was awake and many times this would be throughout the night.  Over months, I began to change my rhythms and I established a pattern of sleeping only one or two hours here and there.  After dad died, this pattern has remained.  Everyone I know has had a big reaction to this and many have tried to convince me that I need medication for sleep.  I am not the kind of person who can safely use any medication even for a short while.  

Mainly, I could sense everyone's agitation over my not sleeping and I believe this agitation came about out of their own fears of becoming an insomniac as well!!  The point is, I had faith that I would find the answer to my sleeplessness as long as I asked for the answer and then allowed the answer to come.  I kept asking and asking but no solution.  This was very frustrating for me because I was convinced the answer was there but I could not see it.

Then the other day I was reading about Transcendental Meditation and I just knew that deep, deep down TM was a technique I needed to learn.  Although I have meditated for many years, I have never learned this method.  As soon as I became focused on my reading, I noticed a shift in my vibration.  I was raising my vibration significantly as I read and resonated with the technique of TM.  

I reached a place in my reading where the author stated that two sessions a day of TM was equivalent to getting an extra two full nights of sleep!!!  Suddenly, the answer I had been looking for found me!  I did not need to sleep more at night, but instead I should acquiesce to the sleeplessness and begin meditating two times a day instead.  This would make up for the lack of sleep! 

Basically, I had raised my vibration significantly and I let the PROBLEM go.  Once I got out of my own way, the answer found me! 

When I look back at my spiritual journey, I can safely say that ALL of my answers and solutions have come in this exact way.  As long as I do not freeze up with muscles clenched in fear, I am able to rise above the problem. This allows the solution to become clear, with virtually no effort on my part.

Overall, we are bombarded with messages of fear throughout our entire day.  It is nearly impossible to go a full day without being subjected to something that tells us we must be afraid and initiate a "fight or flight" response.  Even if we don't watch the news, nowadays almost every show on television demands that we see life as a battle.  

Very rarely do we see anything or hear anything that encourages us to have gratitude and raise our vibrations up to a higher level - after all, fear sells because it is such a powerful emotion.  Unfortunately, fear is also a very weak energy because it is such a low vibration. Very little gets solved when succumb to fear.  Moreover, we are likely to create more problems for ourselves if we approach life from a state of constant fear.

I leave you with this:

What would this world be like if we approached every day from a state of pure bliss and gratitude?  I won't answer this for you, but I hope that you will ponder the question and perhaps try an experiment where you change your own perspective and see how your world changes accordingly.  

Namaste my friends!

THE REAL TRUTH

NOTE: This was first posted to Facebook in response to comments about the previoius blog post


Just wanted to shout out a huge thank you to all my FB buddies for your support and love.

However, I don't want the true point of my last post to be missed. Remember that the world and the people in it are a mirror to you..in other words, how you are treated, the things that are happening to you are simply a reflection of just how much you love and value yourself. 

When things go wrong, don't look for the answers outside of yourself. We all come into this world with contracts we made with our spirit guides and human relationships - we make these contracts so we can learn and grow in the ways we most need. Consequently, if life is getting bumpy, it is because you are being challenged to learn and grow - there is something you need to work on.

Have faith in this...get comfortable, quiet and ask for help. I guarantee you will receive it from God, your guides or angels (whatever you believe in). Listen for that still small voice that will tell you what this problem is trying to get you to learn...

Most importantly, no matter how bad it gets, do not be afraid. Fear is such a low energy that it can block out answers and that keeps the problems front and center. Release your fear, anger and resentment so that you can receive all your answers and all the help that you are meant to receive. 

We are never given more than we are capable of handling even when it seems like things are insurmountable. And, we are always, always loved and watched over so we are never alone. The best part of this is that we are self-correcting and made to heal!! The ride may be bumby but it is never dull!!!

When You're Alone and Life is Making You Lonely

I have had a rough few days. First, I have been sick off and on since Thanksgiving. This is especially hard because my dad needs me to be with him and available. Being sick has forced me to stay home and get well, making me feel incredibly guilty.
Secondly, I have had some tough calls with family ...we have never really been close but when my dad had his stroke, I was hopeful that things would change. They didn't ..in fact, the more difficult the situation becomes, it seems the more cruel family can become as well.

Lastly, I reached out to someone for whom I have always been available and I was basically told that their issues were far more important than mine. I was devastated and feeling so alone. I hardly ever ask anyone for help because I am usually able to get myself out of these crazy places with a lot of prayer and instruction from higher help! This time was different...maybe because I am sick or because I have been under so much stress, I don't know, but I have been truly low, low, low and was so certain that this friend would be there no matter what.

My first reaction was deep hurt and then anger....my second reaction was to write out my feelings and share them. Finally, I got it! Until I love myself enough to attract the right people into my life, I will forever be disappointed. Most of us want to look outside ourselves for what is wrong in our lives..I choose to look in. When I am not attracting everything I believe I want and should be blessed with, then I am doing or not doing something crucial that needs to be looked at.

Most of the time, this comes back to how we truly feel about ourselves. Are we deserving of what we work to achieve? Are we finding friends and/or other relationships that mirror back to us what we think of ourselves, good or bad? The answers are NEVER outside...they are within as is the Kingdom of God. This is not religious in any respect..it is instead a hint to where our true power lies. WITHIN!

But, and this is critical, that power is ONLY surrounded by love and light without ego, expectation or judgment. We cannot access this power if it is bringing someone else to there knees or if it is not truly based in self love that radiates from within us.

So, I ask you...Who are you??? Are you pure love and light or do you expect to be fulfilled by those people and things that are around you? Remember, that which is around us cannot be taken with us into eternity...but love and light are more powerful than anything else and INFINITE!!

Look into your mirror...forgive yourself for everything but take your lessons to heart. And then, when you are clear and free, tell yourself how much you are loved whether or not you are part of a huge group of friends or just a few. Love yourself as you would love your best friend, you will not be disappointed.

The Most Precious Christmas Gift of All

As many of you know, my father suffered a massive stroke in August of 2011.  Despite the pain and difficulty of all this, we have both been blessed with realizing that this is a journey we are both undertaking for the better. 

My father has always been extraordinary and although he is quite different from who he was prior to August 18, 2011, he is by far still the most extraordinary man that I have ever known.

As a child, I was always somewhat disappointed by Christmas.  I never understood gift giving and receiving as the entire point...I far loved giving  more than receiving, but all in all, I was sad when the holiday was over because I felt that everyone, including me,  had missed the point of the day. 

This Christmas has been frought will flu, nursing homes, financial stress and overall emotional hardship as I do not have my dad home just yet.  My hope was that he would spend Christmas at home, but that has not happened despite my intentions...I am learning to surrender yet again and it is hard.

But...and this is one big huge moment in the craziness of it all...last week, I received a Christmas card - from my dad!  He had signed it in the nursing home, "With love, Dad."  I nearly broke in two...this is by far my favorite card that I have ever received in all my fifty years!  I am so grateful that he is still here and was able to sign that card even if he never remembers doing it!  

Finally, I understand Christmas and all its meaning ...it is not in the glitter and lights.  It is not under the tree.  It is not in all the food and the pounds gained.  It is in family and love - shared love that transcends all the pain of an entire lifetime.  It is in gratitude for being able to love to this depth.  And most of all, it is in knowing that we all are Holy Children of a most Loving Creator. 

Blessings to all of you this Holiday Season.

Why Did God Let This Happen?

I often hear people ask during times of tragedy: “Why did God let this happen?” or “If there is a God, why would he let bad things happen?”

The truth is this: God did not let anything bad happen because God created a beautiful, perfect and infinitely loving existence for all of us. God created a universe and world that gives us everything we need in abundance and without pain, injury or illness.

Man, in his/her infinite wisdom, has separated him/herself from God and therefore can only see a world with imperfection, tragedy, illness and death…these are all MAN PERCEIVED, not God Made!

Ask yourself each morning, when you are given another chance at renewal, to see the world as God has made it and not as man has perceived it. It may take some time until you truly see the work of God, but I guarantee you that eventually, you will see a world that is far different from the one you used to believe in.

Love is the Answer

Some of you know that I was forced to give up my beautiful kitty of 11 years as I looked for housing. With the heatwave and all that was happening, I felt that she needed to be somewhere she could be better cared for. Just last Friday, she was adopted and I was heartbroken as I always thought I would get her back. Amidst my tears, I prayed to understand why I was in this painful situation...the answer came right away - I was to share my beloved Cashew with others who needed to experience the unconditional and divine love that only an animal can bring! My heart is healing knowing this.

The Rainbow Dream Vision of Hope (Prophecies)

The Rainbow Dream Vision of Hope

Intertribal Medicine Societies of Turtle Island

The Twenty Count: 1993-2012

Make copies of the Rainbow prophecy, and give or send them to people
anywhere on the planet. Then let them be guided by their hearts to do
the same until all planetary citizens are brought to life in the
Rainbow dream, so that we may dream and work together for true peace.

Love, Thunder Woman

Introduction by Aleran


Throughout the ages humanity has sought out the prophecies of the

spiritually gifted to instil a clear hope and vision into life. During

this time many prophecies come to us trying to lead us in many

different directions.


Some prophecy points to disaster, hopelessness and the annihilation

of mankind. But other prophecies create a vision of joyful

transformation through quantum leaps into love and light.


As things stand now, the human race is dreaming a hell.


But as individuals and as a collective humanity it is our potential

to dream of paradise and to create the kingdom of heaven on our Mother

Earth.


Could it be that the pain in our hearts caused by the hell we have

created will spur us on into visions and creations of a world formed

in love?


It is my prayer and dream, along with a multitude of others who

have taught me to dream the Rainbow dream, that each and every one of

you learn to dream both while awake and sleeping, the dream of unity

and love through divine transformation.


This prophecy is a dream and vision that is a potential reality for

mankind. It is not an ultimatum. But it is ours to behold and to

create if we only dare to dream it together.

The Rainbow Dream Vision of Turtle Island


Prophecies of The Native Americans

1993-2012
PART ONE ~

The distribution and giving back to humanity of the Twenty Count.



In the Turtle Island lore we say it is the time of finding one's path

with heart.

The time of seeking perfection, growth and development.



Most importantly the time of trust and innocence, when mythologies of

the world are revealing secrets.



PART TWO ~

The critical time. The time of the animal. The time of Tuwalananie,

the dark force.


The reason for this is that seeds of light have been planted and we

are starting to grow and the teachings are starting to come out and

all those ones who have taught partial truths, who have taught

deliberate lies in history, are going to be threatened by the

awakening of the Rainbow people because the Rainbow people exist in

every country, in every nation, in every land.



The Dark Forces will be threatened and they will use their power and

their power exists in technology. We are going to see new technology

appearing which will be a tremendous threat to the survival of humanity.



We must exert our influence by gathering together and sharing our

ideas and plans for alternative power and for world peace. If we put a

double amount of energy with what we are for, we can change it. We can

change it.



PART THREE ~

The time of human to human communication.



The time the human family finally starts to become human.

There will be more information brought out into open format than has

ever been seen on this planet.


We will re-establish contact in a very knowledgeable way with our

ancestors from the stars.


So mark that down because it will happen. The first contact will be

with the Pleiades and will be totally acknowledged and will be known

to all the world powers. The second contact will be with Sirius.



PART FOUR ~

When truth seekers begin to open the veil of the crack between the

worlds, we will see our memory circles.


Many of the leaders who are trying to keep us locked in the past, will

not function today, will fall.

Many teachers and wise people will be seen for who they are and they

will be the farmers, the labourers and the gas station attendants

because the tagashala will be fully awakened.

People will begin to link up with other people in gathering together

circles.


Many of these will be the so-called 'common people' and not the

teachers you see up there now.



PART FIVE ~
The various winged serpent wheels will begin to turn, to dance once

again and when they do the rainbow lights will be seen in dreams all

over the world and these rainbow light dreams will help awaken the

rest of humanity.

We will sit in a new circle of law.



All civil and social laws will have to be in conformity with natural

laws or the people will not accept them and they will have the

enlightenment necessary to reject those laws.



Science will once again become metaphysics. They will discover four

laws that will help them jump to universal law and transcend the

time-space continuum which is the limitation of the age and once again

we will begin to take our power and to work with rules and laws that

are cosmic laws.



PART SIX ~


We will once again see the way to continue a new dream.


We will be given the road map back to the stars and we will see the

star people come out of the illusion of their two-legged form and into

their actual great sleeper-dreamer form.

A powerful time approaches humanity and its really hard for me to talk

about it.



I am a great dreamer but I don't know if I dream that large.

We will see a real shift in planetary consciousness.



Many of the enemies of the humans will begin to drop away.

We will totally gain the light of the great light wheel.



There will be one humanity, one planet composed of all the different

ways of dancing in complete harmony in the great gathering together

circle.



All the seeds will be planted.

The Earth will have its true reality formed.



It will join the sisterhood of planets, the daughters of Copperwoman

and it will create within itself all forms of all things in harmony

with the everything.

We will see a whole new way of perfection.



There will be plants on this grandmother earth that will give life and

sustenance as never before seen.



Starvation on the earth, all those things will be gone. There will be

total balance and harmony.



PART SEVEN ~

The new race of humans will begin to design their new reality of life

on this planet as they intended it to be when they first came here

from the stars.


We will begin to establish this planet and use the collective

consciousness to hold the power of this space in harmony with the

Great Circle of Twelve and all the planets. There is a whole lot I

don't even know. There is more that I am not supposed to talk about yet.



The dream will be actualised and this planet will hold its space in

the great council of planets and become a part of the universal

enlightened sisterhood and brotherhood of humanity and keepers of the

light circles. It's happened on many planets and it's expected to

happen on a lot of other planets.



There will be a moment when the population will be 'the' Population,

and something great will happen.



This planet will have its design of energy movement guided by all of

humanity living here.



The Great Spirit will leave its seed and the egg of everything here on

this planet and it will create itself 20 times over at the speed of

light and this prophecy ends as I have been given it by the

Grandmothers that I share with you now.
