INSPIRATION

 
Astara
 
Quote from "A Return To Love: Reflections on the Principles of A Course in Miracles."  
 By Marianne Williamson. 
 
"Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate.
Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.
We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?
Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God.
Your playing small does not serve the world.
There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. 
We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.
It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone.
And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same.
As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others."

Heart Opening
 
Our heart center is a magnificent place of transformation for our growth in consciousness.  Through our heart center, we feel and process the emotions that move through us.  Although emotions vary, the highest guiding light is Love.
 
The challenge for the evolution of humanity is to move from fear based emotions to love based emotions.  Many authors deliver essential messages reminding us of the power and value of Love.
 
When we are triggered to feel intense emotions, an opening is created for the flow of feelings.  When we experience loss through the death of a loved one, a friend, a family member, a pet, a national leader or a celebrity, there is an opening of the heart center.  The emotion of grief washes and cleanses our hearts while the remembrance of love and appreciation expands the heart.
 
When many people collectively focus in one direction, the opportunity for significant heart opening is multiplied.  For example, when Lady Diana, Mother Theresa and John Denver all passed away within a week, the collective grieving created a collective shift in heart opening.  With the recent passing of Michael Jackson, the magnitude of collective focus also created a significant shift in heart opening.  These events create shifts in our awareness and advance us collectively in our awakening.
 
With an expanded heart, we can look within ourselves and define with clarity what we want to create.  The importance of what we focus on is significant.  Thoughts and feelings are powerful creative forces.
 
Let's say you want an increase in prosperity.  When your thoughts and feelings focus on not having enough, "not enough" is what you will manifest.  When you think and feel from a place of worry, doubt and fear, the results will be more of what you don't really want.  When you think and feel from a place of faith and trust in what you desire, you will manifest more of what you really want.  If you trust your connection to prosperity as a force in the Universe that supports you, manifesting what you desire will occur.
 
We can apply this to global issues as well.  Placing our focus on prosperity, wellness, safety, peace and more, aligns us with the power of attraction to manifest these desires.
 
The world we live in is continually changing and transforming. The themes for 2009 are on balancing issues of power, authority, integrity, responsibility and communication. Although circumstances may be challenging, the opportunity to increase our gratitude, compassion, honesty, creativity and love is great.
 
Change and transformation is not always a comfortable process but it can be an empowering process.  It is a time of renewal, creative inspiration, letting go of old ways and attitudes while deepening our sense of inner trust and wisdom.
 
Let's remember the value of our gifts, the techniques of healing and meditation, the significance of a grateful heart, and our compassion for others.
 
 We have the power
 to create a better world.
 The time is Now to manifest it.
