We have updated the Vision for Spiritual Connections:

 

Spiritual Connections is a site to help spiritual people connect to each other... to connect to those who are interested in the things you are interested in .... but even more than that, for those people living in alignment to their life's purpose, those that are discovering... or have found ...what their unique gifts are....what it is that they uniquely bring to the world that other people need to connect to .... that can inspire other people and open their minds ot the possibilities that they havent even considered yet.

This is a place where they can find you and you can find those that you need to bring your gifts through for.  

Your gift may be: being a loving being and helping others to receive love, or it maybe something that seems very profound like channelling through information to to move the world forward into the new reality.

What ever it is that you've got to offer, or whatever you are searching for.. there are so many ways Spiritual Connections can help you make those connections.

Hope you enjoy the newsletter, you will find you can click on most pictures or phrases in blue to be redirected to websites or send emails direct.  Enjoy the articles from our regular writers and from mebers of Spiritual Connections.

Introducing Keesha Goode

Intuitive Mandala Artist

    

The Mandala is a universal sacred energy circle used as a focal point for meditation.

I am sensitive to the energy of people and places and passionate about empowering people to develop their intuition.

I am a self taught artist creating from my heart to channel love and healing energy into each Mandala.

These sacred circles emit a gentle yet powerful vibration helping to take you out of the "mind" and bringing you into Heart-Consciousness. The energy emitted from each Mandala can be reprogrammed according to your needs. You work with them using intention when you want transformation in your life.

Mandalas are a reminder to come back into the NOW moment. The more you work with them the more personal power comes forward to reveal the love within.

Whether you use them for meditation or not, their energy helps to facilitate the safe "falling away" of any unhelpful attitudes and the clearing of any personal blockages, or negative energy in a physical space.

Personal Mandalas can be created for weddings, births, naming days, homes, business and holistic centres. I also enjoy painting large mural Mandalas directly onto a wall or floor.

Personal Mandalas in acrylic on canvas

90x90cm- $550  

60x60cm- $350

Wow! The website this month is an absolute hive of activity! So many new and wonderful events being added daily - this Angel has been delightfully busy keeping the event directory updated and it is looking really fabulous right now-such a dynamic and refreshing array of events currently on offer.

It is so wonderful to see all the wonderful spiritual service and product providers, both big and small, coming together and listing their offerings in the one place- so thank you to all you beautiful people who have taken the time to share your unique gifts and offerings on Spiritual Connections, so that those that need what you offer can find you quickly and easily. Spiritual Connections is now holding such an expansive, supportive energy, and is truly much much bigger than just the sum of its parts. I for one feel so blessed to be a part of such an incredible group of individuals, all living their truth and following their joy.

There's a few angel house-keeping things I did want to mention this month, and they are likely relevant to you so stay with me!-)...If you are adding events please watch the short instructional videos now available as there are new short-cuts for adding events, new ways to copy events to save you time, and also a list of the 'event type' tags for you to refer to when adding events (here). Also this month, there's a new Music feature so all you Spiritual music-makers, get adding your tunes so people can listen to your healing sounds whilst on the website. Lastly, I hope the 'How to Set Up your Page' helps those of you who are having trouble setting up or completing your page set up. There's still a few empty-looking pages on the website and it would be really great to find out some more about the members that have recently (or not so recently!) joined. So be brave, and have a go at setting up your page- this is a gathering place of like-minded people, so let us know who you are and what you do. If after watching the Page Set Up video you're still a little stuck, please send me an email and I can help you out.

As I already mentioned, there are so many fantastic events happening this month, so be sure to regularly check the directory and get your own events up there if you are an event organiser. In December we also have an exciting new event, the Woy Woy Art Market, where we will have both a stall and a Wellbeing Circle.

Lastly, if you are interested in meeting some like-minded, spiritually aware people like yourself and celebrating a bit a christmas spirit, come and join us at the Conscious Connections & Singles Mingles end of year Celebration at Terrigal Haven on Saturday 17th December, click here for more details or to RSVP.  We do need RSVPs in order to proceed with this one. 

Merry Christmas & Happy New Year,
Lisa!

Creativity   

by Eckart Tolle

Eckhart on Creativity

There's a particular dimension where creativity arises.  It's a little bit like the wick burning the flame, and its sustenance is the oil - it's in an oil lamp, and you are the flame.  All the analogies, by the way, are very deficient, but it's just a distant approximation to get you into a sense of what that place is.  So you are the flame, and you feel your way into the very source - down the wick into where the oil is, inside yourself.  That's the place, the source, so if anything is new, creative, then it has a fragrance of the source.


Somehow, humans, even humans who are still very much identified with their mind, many of them are touched by when they see or hear or whatever - come into contact with - something that came out of that deeper level, whether it's a work of art, or a piece of music, or it could just be somebody talking.  And the words come from that deeper level.  It could just be somebody who has a good sense of humor - even that is already a form of creativity.  Spontaneous humor is to suddenly see something that one wouldn't normally see - a connection between two seemingly unconnected things, and suddenly you connect them and everybody laughs.  Some people have that. Some people have one small area in which they can be creative, and that can be enough to provide you with fulfillment and an income, for the rest of your life - and to contribute that gift to others.


Great stand up comedians, for example, have that gift.  Of course, not everything they say is spontaneous, but when they prepare their stuff, they have to be creative.  Now I don't know if anybody here has tried to be a standup comedian, but it's difficult.  Many people try.  It's hard to be funny.  But some have it, and it's amazing - those few that have that gift.  And there too, the sense of humor is spontaneously something arises, and there it comes.  It's being in touch with that.  It's wonderful to be able to be in touch with that, and feel the power that flows from there, out into this world.  Now for that, of course you need some kind of vehicle, because the power needs to flow into some kind of form.


You can touch that place also, within, and it may not flow into creativity, because you have not developed a vehicle for it.  The very same power that gives rise to creativity can also manifest itself in different ways that we would not call creativity.  It could be a healing power that comes into effect the moment you enter into relationships with others.  Healing in a wider sense, not just physical healing.  You will not suddenly become a great musician if you have never touched an instrument, just because you touch that place within yourself.  It's not going to manifest as a great scientific discovery in my case, because the vehicle is not prepared for that.  My mind is not prepared for that.  It doesn't even work that way.  So for me to expect to come up with the Unified Field Theory that Einstein didn't come up with - he tried after the theory of relativity, he tried for the rest of his life to come up with that - I am not going to come up with that.  It's very unlikely.  The vehicle has not been prepared. I am not going to be a great pianist, because I don't know how to play the piano.  So no matter how deeply I go within, it's not going to flow into that.  You need to prepare the vehicle for creativity.


More important than that is the place - to be able to go within to that place of vibrantly alive stillness, where creativity arises.  And you can go in there, and if there's no vehicle, it will not express itself in any form of creativity, not any conventional form of creativity.  But it may actually express itself in different ways.  I just mentioned one, which is an outflow in human interactions - and outflow of - very hard to put a word to it, but you can sense it, when you meet a person who is present in the interaction.  It's a different energy frequency that operates.  And that is healing.  It is so formless that it does not require a previously prepared vehicle.  You can just be.  And you emanate Being.

Revolution of the Evolution & Emergence of Cultural Creatives

Dr Bruce Lipton interview by Lilou Mace http://www.facebook.com/liloumacewebTV recorded under the rain and sun in Honolulu Hawaii at the Quantum Medicine Congress on October 10th 2011.

Example comment- According to Seth's The Nature of Personal Reality, even the thought that most of "us" is hidden in a place called the subconscious and therefore hidden from us, makes it more so. The consciousness is an eye of awareness we can use to reach outside or to look inside ourselves. What is subconscious is there because we placed it there.

Feng Shui- Then and Now 

 Feng Shui Spot

Written by Marlih Jung

Marlih Jung
 
 
This question pops up every Christmas. The best place to place the Christmas tree is the Wealth Sector in your home or office and if you can decorate it with purple and gold all the better. The gifts under the Christmas tree will add additional abundance energy.

This is a time where everyone is in the mood of buying gifts. I would like to take this opportunity to remind everyone to consider the receivers and honour them with gifts that empower them rather than giving a gift that clutters their space/life.

As we have entered this new Piscean Energy the need to clear is greater than the need to collect. Support your family members, friends and business associates with gifts that support the integration of this new energy.

Ultimate gifts are Feng Shui Consultations or workshops, Bazi Readings, Energy Healings, Massages etc.

There is no shortage of gift ideas on the Spiritual Connections Site.   Also visit my Profile page to see the courses coming up about feng shui.            


Love, Joy and Abundance

Novembers Arty Party at The Arts Barn  

 

 

Arty Party 2011
Arty Party 2011

 

The video above is the pre-party set for the Arty Party. 

A circle of spiritual / healing artists had a party to celebrate the year and the expression of healing art with an exhibition of their artworks and some products for sale.  They each endeavour to raise awareness of art that portrays and contains spiritual healing energies.   Each woman in the group, not only has their own brand of healing which, in most cases their art is used, but also infuse healing energies into their art works.  There is a strong community spirit within the group, as each woman in some way is part of community projects that enhance the coming together and awareness within the community.   

The party was a great success with champagne at the door and lots of nibbles and indulgent goodies.  They were so busy enjoying themselves that they forgot to film the actual party!   For information about each artist and their artworks click on the artist below.

The Arts Barn provides the perfect set for art exhibitions, events, movie nights and workshops.  It provides professional lighting and art hanging equipment, with a computer for music and graphic displays or projections.  It has kitchen facilities for entertaining and smaller space upstairs for more intimate workshops or meetings.

In The Beginning

In the Beginning

 

We know there's a beginning, a kind of misty secret

that wraps itself around us - that way we get to keep it

it snares us and it binds us and makes us slaves of dreadful longing

Then loops back and sings a story of the light within its mystery

And we, spellbound turn from longing with eyes born again to see

All gods children in heaven & earth gather round to hear the story

Of this light family's birth

From the cosmos they sang stories - woven like a spiders web

silver strands of luminescence from the 3rd eye in their heads

And the garden it was perfect cloaked in the glory of heaven & earth

In our cocoons then she watched love over us

She is our mother, she gave us birth

For we are ancient and we know not what our true beginning is

We've forgotten our own nature

Dreamed a dream that's not worth living

Lost our way in our own garden

Separated from our source... Separated from our bliss

Coming back to the sweet memory of your cocoon of luminescence

Silver threads that sing your light to you from the mother you are bred

Sweet white water from the cosmos fills your body with delight

Igniting all the Gods & Goddesses, animating the family of the light

We have grown away from our mother

We grew up and then took flight

And disregarded all her lessons and claimed we had all the might

Taking everything she offered - like a child demanding more

Our lovely mother patiently loving

The mother in our hearts whom we adore

Remember then that we were born from seeds sewn in a cosmic garden

So long ago that we have forgotten

That we are the inheritors of this jewelled earth

A seed in a pod on a vine we grew with our families of light

Cosmic humans birthing consciousness for the Mother's own heavenly flight

So ancient a plant in the garden

So fragile that silvery thread

That luminous remembering has gone from our heart to our head

Hence we have forgotten our Mother as puberty pulled on our strings

Seduced by a garden of beauty

Seduced by the distractions she brings.

 

We know there's a beginning

A kind of misty secret.....

that wraps itself around us

that way we get to keep it.

Releasing Limiting Patterns With Your Relationship To Money  

How Do You Limit The Flow Of Money In Your Life? 
Are you in a cycle of debt?
Do you never seem to have the money to do as you want?
Are money and finacial stress effecting your relationships, your health?
Do you feel you deserve more than you are getting?
If you answered yes to any of these questions, there is at least one program about money tucked away in your energy field that is impacting your life in a destructive way.  Money is an energy which, like all others, can be sabotaged, suppressed, blocked, lost and/or not flowing in your life.
The money we attract is determined by many factors such as: our beliefs, genetic programs, religious/spiritual programs, karmic patterning, self worth, self love, our willingness to achieve, vows and promises, past life imbalances, and the financial situation we were born into.  We usually hold these programs beyond our conscious knowing, such that we repeat the same patterns and feel stuck in an endless cycle.  
Money is an energy currency of exchange in a world that promotes credit and interest free purchases for some years, working with money in the most productive way is one of lifes challenges.
A money balance from Rekindled Ancient Wisdom Identifies and reprograms the factors that are creating the repeating patterns around money on your life.
Is Your Health And/Or Weight Being Effected By Money Programs 
I recently worked with a client who came with health challenges.  She was gaining weight despite her rigorous diet and excercise regime and had dangerous blood clotting and fatigue.  We were both a little surprised when the balance indicated was a money balance.  Another client was working through chronic anxiety and loneliness issues.  Again we were suppreised to clear the issues using a money balance.  How I love (and trust) that the RAW balance always accesses through your bodies wisdom the correct balance for the issues.
Money is just one part of our life and probably the most distructive force when it is out of balance.  There is no doubt that it effects every area of your life. 

 

Gaia's Children  

   

 possum

Here are 2 precious Brush Tail Possums who live nearby.

The night I took this photo the baby climbed down and sniffed my arm.

Tonight I was sitting on my verandah step and the baby possum ran out of the bush, ran over to me, sniffed my foot for about 10 seconds, then ran back to mamma. Soooooo awesome.

In Scott Alexander King's (who I met the other day and is just divine!) Australian Animal Possum Oracle Cards, the possum means opportunity. To be in such close commune with wild animals is an amazing opportunity in itself - that spiritually they herald opportunity is just an added bonus!

Thank you Gaia!

 

Shadow Self 

 

Terri Graham medium

Posted by Terri Graham on on November 23, 2011 at 5:39pm.

So how is it possible to not just shield one's self from the every day onslaught of nasty behaviour, but to not join in as well. To always come from a place of love, not sit on that judgment throne we as humans love so much (an animal would never stoop so low) and to remain pure in a toxic environment. I asked a similar question of a Buddhist monk from Nepal a couple of years ago. He spoke of going within and being still, clarity will come. I personally think he was trying to say "don't sweat the small stuff".

 

This is the shadow self we try to pretend isn't there. The ugly part of us, that comes out upon occasion, usually at the most inopportune of times and is very primitive. The shadow self is full of ego but also full of self esteem issues as well. As soon as we feel inferior (in our own minds), it's easier to handle by making someone else deficient. After all, if we felt better about ourselves we would have no need to put anyone else down. Putting others down immediately lowers us energetically and spiritually, contaminating our aura. The shadow self creates an illusion between our egos and the real world.

Influenced by environment, upbringing and past lives, it can feel like a battle of control at times. But that uneasy feeling in the pit of your stomach is the conscience at work. Listen to it. Usually the biggest reason for doing the gossip thing is to integrate with others, feel like you fit in. The irony is that these same people are probably gossiping about you. Don't forget the saying 'what you send out is what you get back'. It's amazing how these insecurities about others can completely mess with your head too. Inflaming anger, insane jealousy and paranoia towards the most innocent of people, who are unaware you are even having a problem. I copped a dose of this from someone recently and was left bewildered for awhile. Then decided to hand it back over to her to deal with, it had nothing to do with me in the end.

All you can do, is keep doing the work on yourself. Regular meditation to quiet the mind of clutter, that tends to build up. Remember that compassion and empathy releases judgment from your energy. Being conscious of it as soon as it happens will shed light onto the shadow to help diminish it. At the end of the day, does it really matter if someone looks like Shrek, after all, millions of children and some adults think he is fabulous and even cute. There is good in everyone, even those you feel are being mean to you.


 Create Your Christmas Spirit 

Bliss Feng Shui 2011

Don't we all wish for a happy, joyful and harmonious Christmas? When practicing Feng Shui it is most important for me to address my clients' life circumstances and the desired improvements. Over the years I have noticed that the most desired improvements relate to Health, Family harmony, Wealth and Relationships. If any of these relate to your life circumstances, here are some tips.

 

Regardless of the sector we are dealing with, it is essential to clear and clean out this area and only put back what you or your family members really, really, really like. Remember, you would not make tea in a cup that had coffee in it without washing it first, or pour white wine in a glass that has red wine in it without washing it, the same relates to any space. If you are not sure about the sectors, see www.blissfengshui.com.au tips.

 

Health/Family - This area is in the left middle sector of your home. Place a picture of yourself and your family members (it is important that everyone is happy and as everyone would like to see themselves). Place a wooden or green bowl with fresh fruit and/or fresh vegetables appropriate to the living space. During the Christmas Season you can add nuts and other treats that you can eat without feeling guilty. It is important that we only display what we can eat and makes us feel good.

 

Wealth - This area is the front left sector of your home. If possible put up your Christmas tree in this area. Decorate it with gold and purple. Flashing lights are great activators. Hang pictures of an item or a wish on the Christmas tree. Make sure that the presents under the Christmas tree are gifts that will make the person receiving it happy. If you don't know what the person would like, ask or give a gift voucher. Cluttering someone's space does not attract abundance in the give's or receiver's life.

 

If you can't place the Christmas tree in this area, create a vase or bowl with tree branches and decorate it with similar items.

 

Relationship - This area is the front right sector of your home. First make sure that anything you have displayed is in pairs and when you look at it makes you feel happy. This area calls for yin nurturing energy. Rose Quartz Crystals and red candles preferable in pairs are great activators. Write on a red paper with black pen or on yellow paper with red pen what you would like in relation to a new or existing partnership, fold the paper and place it under the item(s), you can make more than one lists, as you may have more than one Item.

 

Most important, make a list with what you offer to the relationship as there has to be balance in a good relationship. Carry this list with you during the day, so you can make amendments as you think of it. During the night place this list under your pillow.

 

Wishing everyone Love, Joy and Happiness


  Wish Upon A Star

Posted by Michael Goebel on November 22, 2011 at 4:30pm 

Wish Upon A Star
I wrote this because I want everyone to know what can be achieved through focus of sheer desire.

To me, it now appears that the dreams we hold in our hearts can be REAL.

They are of substance and therefore do not exist only in our heads.

But because we only see them in our mind's eye - we sometimes think they are imaginary and therefore cannot or do not exist - Imaginary.

But if you reach deep down FAR ENOUGH, you will find them and bring them INTO YOUR REALITY.

This is the story of how I did just that.







When You Wish Upon A Star
(Ned Washington/Leigh Harline)

When you wish upon a star, Makes no difference who you are
Anything your heart desires Will come to you
If your heart is in your dream, No request is too extreme
When you wish upon a star, As dreamers do
Fate is kind, She brings to those who love
The sweet fulfillment of Their secret longing
Like a bolt out of the blue, Fate steps in and sees you through
When you wish upon a star, Your dream comes true
No request is too extreme, When you wish
As dreamers do
When you wish upon a star, Makes no difference who you are
When you wish upon a star,
Your dream comes true

Preface
My name is Michael Goebel. Here begins the story of the (even) better part of my life :-)

Being of German descent, my parents brought me up to believe in the ancient Germanic doctrine (I don't like the word 'religion'...). A somewhat pantheistic belief and simplistic belief, granted, however it does agree with Quantum Mechanics...

God within me, God without
How could I ever be in doubt ?
There is no place where I may go
And there not see God's face, not know
That I am God's vision and God's ears
So through the passing of the years
We are the sowers and the sown
Gods Self unfolding and God's own

This particular belief system has a very simple canon of laws:

1. to Love God, for God IS Love.
2. to Love not only one's 'neighbour', but all human beings and living creatures
3. to never inflict needless suffering on any living creature
4. pray to God, not for oneself, but for others

In this 'view', God is like this "ultimate parent" figure - all loving, all compassionate and all knowing. He IS one with his creation. He is ALL. You make life what it is, either a Heaven or a Hell, according to your actions. He does not punish or Bless - YOU do. Do the right thing and you "go to Heaven", so to speak... be bad and you make your life a "Hell".

Simple. Easy to remember.
