When I was a little girl my mother used to say "make the time for it". Usually that meant making the time for chores I did not want to do. Lately I have been working on making the time for things I want to do. Things that make me happy, nurture me, things that make me laugh or help me heal. But what about making space? We can make space in our home when we reorganize furniture. We can create more space in our closets by getting rid of old things we no longer use or by adding a double hanging rack. But how can we create space for ourselves to process our emotions? This is a concept and practice I have been working with a lot over the past couple weeks. My Husband and I said goodbye to our beloved 14 year old dog Roxy July 1st. This has brought up much grief and sadness for me. I realized that this letting go was a trigger for all the grief I have experienced my entire life and had not been able to process thoroughly to come up for revisitation and release. Not only have feelings come up from this lifetime but from past lifetimes and indeed some of the unprocessed emotions from humanity's collective subconscious. This process has felt a bit overwhelming at times. So just like making time, I have had to make and hold the space for unconditional love in my heart to be able to feel and process the emotions as they flow through. I have needed to let go of self judgment and really be kind to myself as I realize this is a process that takes time and space. As humanity clears all the difficult emotional debris from the collective dark closet you may find yourself feeling unexpected anger, hurt, sadness, grief, guilt, shame or fear. It is ok to feel it. It is ok to love it. Be kind and compassionate with yourself and allow the waters of emotion to flow over and through you - without judgement. Try to be loving towards yourself during this process. For truly it always comes back to Love. Love heals all.. With an open loving heart, Tanya Corona As the clock ticks towards the Summer Solstice and the new moon is dark in the sky, I have been thinking about the seeds I want to plant and what I would like to create in the upcoming months. The new moon - or dark moon is a wonderful time to create, to manifest things in your life. One easy way to create things in your life is to write a thank you note to God, the Source of all things, the Universe (whomever you choose to thank for your abundance) Write a heartfelt note as if you have already received ____ (what you would like to manifest). Be specific. Feel the love and gratitude from receiving ____. Feel the joy in your heart. Be patient. Some things manifest quickly while others take time. If it is for your greatest good and you are ready it will happen. One thing I am thankful for- you being you! The Time Warp And I don't mean the song from the "Rocky Horror Picture Show" (although you will be singing that the rest of the day - ...Just a jump to the left....) Have you noticed that time is behaving wonky right now? It seems to be going too fast. The days, weeks and months are flying by except when you want it to hurry then it crawls. Wait a minute...what day is it again? Stop and breathe. When you focus on what is right in front of you - your task at hand - without thinking about the past or the future - you can create all the time and space required to complete that task. When you come to a place of stillness within the present moment time unravels and expands in a way that allows you to have all the time you need. Stop worrying about being late. Know you will arrive exactly on time and you will. The trick is knowing and feeling this crazy time warping works. When you know it, feel it and are grateful for it you are rewarded by the universe. Are you noticing a theme here? Practice makes perfect. You are opening up to amazing gifts and abilities. All you need to do is remember how to use them and be grateful. So flex those manifestation muscles and create magic in your life and the lives of those around you. If you want something ask. Say please and thank you. Mean it. You will be amazed at how easy it is once you get rolling. Don't be afraid to use your intuition and creative style. Experiment. The roses are blooming in my yard right now. I love this time of year. The flowers are beautiful explosions of life - the essence of Earth/ Gaia. When was the last time you stopped to smell the roses? Your heart is opening now like a glorious flower. With each day to the amount you allow it your heart opens more and more - like a rose with inner petals that only become visible under the right conditions. As more light and love are available to you, your heart can soak it in just like a flower soaks in the Springtime sunshine after a long dark winter - to the extent that you allow for it. Allow is the operative word. What happens when, instead of worrying about all the things around you (what needs to be completed, what is for dinner, when do you have to be somewhere) You stop, breathe deeply, feel and JUST BE? When you breathe deeply your lungs fill and a release happens. Grief and sadness stored in the lungs begin to release. Deep breathing also relieves stress and anxiety due to its physiological effect on the nervous system. Breathing slowly and mindfully activates the hypothalamus, connected to the pituitary gland in the brain, to send out neurohormones that inhibit stress. When you are relaxed it is easier to be in the present moment. To just be you, right now and appreciate your many blessings. This is when we allow that love and gratitude to flow in and the heart opens a little bit more each time. Take the time, many times per day to breathe and connect to the present moment. You will find your happiness quotient goes up. And who doesn't want that? The April 4th Lunar eclipse was a glorious sight to behold. A beautiful ruby moon with a bright silver sliver above it shone through my bedroom window at about 5am that day. Since then I have felt like I am being rebuilt - awakened from a cocoon. I have seen this with with many of the people I have worked with in the past month as well. As we grow up there are all kinds of expectations placed upon us. Ideas and ideals our parents have for us, our peers, our teachers, society. Emotions, roles and expectations that we have worn like a coat become us, or become who we think we are. They can become our identity. This energetic reset that happened between the eclipses has allowed the coat to begin to dissolve and what is emerging is our true self. Our inner divine self. Allowing this to happen can be challenging. We may see ourselves as changing. How will others perceive this changed me? What if they won't love us anymore? In truth you are just becoming more of the beautiful glorious being you came to Earth to be. You cannot control those who want to keep you in the box of their expectations. Have the confidence to stand strong in the inner divine self you are opening into. Allow your truth to shine forth. Soon you will discover that you can truly fly. You are the one you have been waiting for. You are a shining star planted here on Earth to help all of us shine more brightly. Now time to own it. The month of March came in like a lamb in California and like a lion on in other places. The next couple weeks may treat us roughly - like a lion. The last Jupiter / Uranus Square, Friday's New Moon, Solar Eclipse and Equinox, and the April 5th Lunar eclipse are all pushing forth a total reset. The Energetic aperture is widening. This will allow more higher frequency energy to be available to you. If you are open to it, the process can be quite profound and transformational. If you are resistant, it may be challenging. Reset, Let go of the old and move forward into the new. You can do it! The Ham A young woman wanted to make a ham for a holiday celebration. She called her mother for a recipe. Her mother told her to cut the ends off, put it in a pan and bake in the oven for 1 hour. The woman asked her "Why should I cut the ends off?" The mother replied "That's the way Grandma taught me to do it." The woman decided to call her Grandmother to get her recipe. When she asked Grandma why cut the ends off the ham? Grandma replied "I do not have a pan large enough to fit the whole ham." Sometimes our patterns and habits do not have relevance in our lives any more. Maybe we have 'a pan that fits the whole ham'. This Solar Eclipse reset allows you to re-evaluate patterns the do not necessarily serve you anymore. Meditation: Forgiveness One at a time visualize everyone with whom you've ever had significant dealings in your life - parents, mate, children, boss, landlord, and so on.. (calling the vision of that puts you in touch with their higher spirit selves) Tell them (internally or out loud) that you forgive them for any harm you've ever felt they did to you. It doesn't matter if they don't think they hurt you - it's what you think that is trapped in your fields. Tell them that you understand it was all done by prior agreement even if you didn't know that at the time. Thank them for for filling their end of the agreement and tell them that you love them. Next stand in front of the mirror and do the same for yourself. Forgive yourself for every time you thought you'd screwed up. Tell yourself it was all done by agreement and look at what you've learned. Remind yourself that everything happens exactly as we intend it to. We're getting down through it by now. We've blown out imprinting, judgment, fear and best of all, self judgment. Repeat the forgiveness routine but this time more generally. "I forgive anyone who has harmed me in this or any lifetime anywhere on any plane. I forgive all debts and erase all karma. I choose light for myself and all my selves." (Say this with meaning and intent. It may take a few tries but you will know when it's complete.) When you have truly forgiven look for gratitude. You will feel a sense of thankfulness for all you have learned. You are so divinely loved in every moment. Knowing this in your heart will allow you the confidence to hold yourself high - like the true being of light you are. Spend time with yourself this month and take inventory of what is working for you and what is not. What are the old ideas that have been ingrained in your mind and what truly serves you. Let go of the old ideas and grudges you are holding in your heart. You are the one who knows you best so be kind and honest with yourself and TRUST your intuition about the things you need to change. You've got this! One of the most important things you can do to bring forth your true self and purpose is get grounded. Not the kind of grounding your parents gave you when you were in trouble. This type of grounding means to bring your Higher energetic divine self down into your body and anchor it into the Earth. When you do this you begin to truly embody your divine presence here in the moment, working with elements of Earth to shine forth your light. Think of being on a merry-go-round. When it is spinning, the farther from the center you are standing, the more difficult it becomes to retain your balance. When you are clicked into that center things can be flying all around you but you are solid and strong. Here is a little guided meditation to help you connect and ground into your heart center:
Meditation: Sitting in Your Center: Start by breathing deeply. In the center of your heart you see a beautiful light filled chair. Directly over the chair hanging from the ceiling there's a large quartz crystal pointed downward bathing the chair in rainbow hues of light. Walk over to the chair and sit in it. It is your chair and fits you perfectly. You feel at home here, very peaceful. This is your heart sanctuary. Sense the energies from the Crystal bathing you in light. Listen to your heart. Be present. Be still. Be open to experience the presence of God and your higher self. Now link your heart to the Heart of the Earth. Feel the slow nurturing heartbeat of the Earth match your own. Feel the calm stability enter your body. Feel gratitude at the connection. You can come here anytime you feel out of balance. The beach! If you watch TV at all you have probably seen the Corona (beer - not me) commercials that encourage you to find your beach. A beach vacation can be a beautiful, relaxing escape from your day to day life. But, who says you can't feel this way every moment and every day. When you are centered in the present moment and focus on the things directly in you face you are at the right place at the right time. Right now. This is your beach. Let go of worries about the past and the future and create that space for calm and joy right now. In the present moment it does not matter what anyone thinks of you or expects from you. Being totally yourself is easy. In this space you become the calm in the storm. Holding this place for yourself and others can be tricky, especially not being in the habit of doing it. The more you are here at this beach though, the easier it becomes. Yes, sometimes it rains at the beach. When you see the rain as food for growth, the difficult things become easier. As you do this, it also becomes easier for those around you. Hold that feeling of the sun shining on your face and the sound of the waves daily, moment by moment. Practice makes perfect. Soon it will feel easy.
October and the fall season is here. While we are still experiencing a lot of heat and drought in California, the rest of the country has enjoyed cool weather and rain. For those of you outside of CA who are getting too much rain, send some to California please! (Thank You).
October and the whole fall season is shaping up to be quite intense energetically. As the emotional water table continues to rise, forcing us to heal and release all that does not serve the greatest good, new energy is flowing in at a staggering pace. Here are some of the alignments we will experience this month:
This Mercury retrograde is all about balancing communication in relationships. Are there things that need to be said? Talk it out with love and gentleness. Monitoring your thoughts: During this intense month it is so important to monitor the way you think, about yourself and others. Negative thinking can bring you and everyone around you down. Positive thinking can be truly uplifting. Here is a good illustration: Below: Dearest, may you shine and glow with joy, happiness, gratitude and love and share it with those around you. You are the pebble in the pond creating the outward to infinity touching everything around you... Calling Back The Jewel in your Heart Your heart jewel is a special piece of you and your magic that has been separated from you. The time is right to call that piece back to you. Meditation: Start by breathing deeply. Place your right hand on your heart. Bring your energy and consciousness into your heart chakra. As you breathe into this area feel yourself getting warmer and softening. See pink healing light fill and envelop your heart. As you sit with this energy, explore your heart. Feel the tiny void there that wants to be filled with love, joy and connection. When you do you can call your heart jewel back to you. State out loud with intention: "Magic jewel come back to me and connect into my heart center. I willingly call my heart jewel back into the center of my heart. I am grateful this is done. Thank you." When this is done take a look at your jewel. Feel grateful for the re-integration. Feel the void that was being full and whole again. Do this exercise daily until you feel your heart's completeness. I just returned from Hawaii. I was in Oahu, also known as the gathering place. I was amazed at how Oahu truly lives up to it's name. There were people from all over the world swimming on Waikiki beach. I met folks from Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, China, all over the US, India, Africa... So many people on one beach enjoying the water, sand and atmosphere. And living in harmony with each other. The photo below of Waikiki - Diamond Head Crater in the distance- was taken at 5:30 am as the sun rose. You have to be up very early to find that beach human free.
We are experiencing a time on Earth where things seem to be going crazy all over the world but truly people are people. When you get right down to it we all want to be free, loved, cared for and happy. We are gathering together for a greater goal. Sending love and peace to the people who do not have it in their lives is a powerful gift you can easily give. As you send love from your heart to the war torn areas on the planet know it is felt and appreciated. Sending love to the haters is just as important as sending love to those you deem 'more deserving'. Everyone is affected by this simple act of kindness, including you. This month, before summer is over, gather together and give some extra love to the people in your life including yourself. You will be happier as a result. |
