Emergence Vol V - 2015 Special Summer Update!
| |
|
When our eyes see our hands doing the Work of our Hearts, the Circle of Creation is completed inside us, the doors of our Souls fly open and Love steps forth to Heal everything in sight.
Greetings!
What a ride the month has been thus far. Much has been going on and our sensitivities are heightened. The New Moon of May 18th ushered in the Mercury Retrograde in Gemini (5/18 - 6/11). This cycle offers us the opportunity to gain a new understanding of the beliefs, attitudes, and assumptions about life that have shaped us up until this point. There is tremendous healing potential to be found by exploring those depths. Keys to our creative potential lie within those questions. Our environment and how we engage with others may come up for review. We are asked to think beyond the status quo. The primary focus of Mercury Retrograde in Gemini is communication, learning, adaptability, and creativity. What are we learning? What are we resisting? And, what do we yearn to create for ourselves?
As we know, the Mercury Retrograde supports certain activities like life reviews, self-care and renewal, completing projects already started, reassessing plans and business directions. We also know that it challenges others. Since Mercury and Gemini are of the mind - your mind may be very busy during this time. This could be great as concepts may be grasped easier or we could jump to conclusions. To successfully navigate this cycle, I encourage everyone to:
- Ground themselves more often. Walk in Nature or any other activity that connects you to Earth.
- Hydrate - the central nervous system is impacted by the Mercury Retrograde. Water will help balance the currents/impulses.
- Slow down. Listen to others. Ask questions and ensure that you are clear in your communications.
- Exercise tolerance and patience in all of your activities. Things may not move as quickly as you would like. Pushing would not give your better results.
Throughout the rest of the month, our sensitivities may ebb and flow. If you are an empath (sensitive), please be self-aware. Observe your emotions/responses to outside stimulus, and release what is not your energy. The end of month thru early June herald a time of positive transformation and creativity. This influence energizes communications and artistic endeavors. We are encouraged to put to use the wisdom gained during this cycle.
Dance Life, my friends!

Some Thoughts on Nepal
 Many of you have asked me why the earthquakes struck Nepal and why epidemics of inhumanity seem to be escalating. This space does not suffice to fully address those issues. I suspect that on a soul level a greater purpose is being served - the details of which we may never understand with our minds. It feels to me that all of these serve the collective evolution of the Heart. Humanity, for some time, has been programmed to view and interact with life through the lens of "us" and "them". The truth is that our our Oneness with all of Life is not a catchphrase but is Reality. Pain and tragedy act as soul teachers. They soften and unite us - offering us opportunities for breakthroughs in consciousness. Massive relief efforts are underway in Nepal. In them, we see many nations coming together for the purpose of healing and assistance. Political and cultural barriers crumbled in the wake of these earthquakes. Many voices and hands are now joined in compassionate purpose. If we can work together in times of tragedy, then together we can envision and write a new story for humanity. The power of compassion changes hope to faith, tears down walls, builds bridges, reconstructs lives, and even creates miracles. It feels that Universe is shining a spotlight upon us to let us know that we no longer require catastrophe to awaken our hearts. We are a strong and beautiful people. At our core, we know that we are fully capable of creating a better world for the Good of All. Perhaps, Nepal is the moment we will choose to keep our Hearts open in spite of the pain and fear - so that we may heal ourselves and the beautiful Earth we share.
The heartache and devastation of Nepal remind me that it is no longer enough for us to pray for those stricken by tragedy. This is not to diminish the value of prayer but rather to encourage us to empower our prayers with spiritual activism. That is the medicine that is needed at this time. Sometimes we fail to take action because we think that what we have to contribute of time, energy, or money is too small to make a difference. Every act of compassion makes a difference to the Soul of the World, to those that received that goodness, and to those that shared of themselves. |

The Tao of Forgiveness: Healing Practices for Freedom & Personal Transformation
Sunday, May 31, 2015 12:30pm - 3pm
Heart of the Dove, Westford, Ma
Did you know that forgiveness heals? It can lower blood pressure, reduce depression, ease anxiety, increase our sense of well-being, and facilitate the body's natural healing. Life sometimes throws us curve balls and there is no playbook on how to recover from them. We may flounder in "why did this happen". Many of us get the concept of forgiveness but we don't understand how to navigate the field of forgiveness so we get stuck early in the process. This workshop will guide you from concept to mindfulness and well-being. We will also enjoy a Healing Meditation from the comfort of "0 Gravity Recliners". It will open us to allowing our Good to flow. Join us and learn how to live more freely, reclaim your joy, and reactivate your Wellness Gene! Details and registration: Heart of the Dove or call 978-302-6607.

Heart of the Dove, Westford, Ma
I am so excited to present Spiritual Warrior! It's message is timely and an opportunity to awaken to the immensity of ourselves. Spring/Summer 2015 is ripe for reclaiming our power and taking action on our Good! May the precepts discussed in the course serve as a guide for your personal evolution. May they also inspire and empower you to achieve a deeper, more meaningful relationship with yourself and the world. We will explore: pathways to open the Heart channel, practices to overcome our fears; and we will learn how to move into and maintain states of clarity and vision. The group will learn the value of Presence and identify/heal our responses to the common pitfalls that keep us from walking our Paths. We will journey via guided meditation to reclaim a lost/forgotten gift that serves our Divine Purpose. After, we will honor it in a Spirit Reclaiming Ceremony .
