An Exploration of the Unseen World

We are all one interactive vibrational energy, but we forget that when we become too immersed in our bodies.  It takes some focused actions to cultivate our continuing awareness of our selves as One energy – with everything.

We Are One With the Whole 

An Exploration of the Unseen World

As we sit here in our individual planet personas it is a bit tricky to understand, let alone feel, that we are, in fact, one very, very large vibrational energy field.  Not a piece of it, but immersed in and incorporated in the whole.  

But the truth is we ARE all one energy and with that comes both the power and the responsibility of wholeness. 

Like you, I am working to not just understand that but to feel it and embrace my place in the Oneness, to be responsible for my presence in the Web of Oneness.  

I’m Cara Lumen, spiritual philosopher and founder of the Deeper Song Community. I am a cosmic explorer who consciously travels into the unseen world to serve as a bridge to help us expand our relationship with the spiritual world. I share what I learn and guide those who are ready to the next level so we can sing a deeper song.  

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

In this episode of Reflections of a Deeper Song we’ are going to explore the concept that  We Are One With the Whole.

From here in our human form, living our restricted human lives it’s a little tricky not to feel separate. In fact, we sometimes rather pride ourselves on feeling uniquely individual. But we are all one energy and to experience ourselves as individual is like trying to separate sunbeams.  We are all one all-encompassing energy. There is no you and me. There is no us and them. We are all one, all-inclusive vibrational energy. We just can’t always experience ourselves that way. 

But when we learn to accept our oneness, to experience ourselves as an important aspect of the greater whole,  our perception of our role and our responsibility changes. 

To be an observer requires being a separate form.  We are not separate from Oneness. We are not  separate from our Collective Wholeness.  So how do we figure out what Oneness is and what are role is in it? 

Give that some thought. 

You cannot step outside of being “One” in order to see “One”.  Because we all are “One!”

How do we, from our seemingly separate vantage points, begin to experience ourselves as the Whole , The All-encompassing One Energy?

As long as we are in our body there is a tendency to experience ourselves as separate. 

We are to learn see ourselves as the energy field that we are, as one all-encompassing vibration. 

The we need to understand that Since we are this all-encompassing wholeness,  then we am constantly experiencing it and expressing it.

As long as we are in our human experience there is a tendency to experience ourselves as separate.

The fact is, here in our body expression we need contrast in order to understand anything.  We need black to understand white.  We need up to understand down. We need contrast. How do we begin to understand and experience everything as One?

I love being an individual. I love seeming myself as unique.  And in our human form we are unique expressions.  But when we feel unique we also feel separate. The metaphor of web of life doesn’t work for me because it makes me see myself as a separate strand.  I don’t want to feel separate.  I want to feel ONE.  I prefer the image of big part of the Cosmic Soup with my flavor adding to the well-bing of the whole. 

Seeing our selves as separate makes us feel separate, makes us unable to access feelings of belonging or being included in the wholeness of, let alone being and totally merging with All-That-Is.  So the first thing we have to give up is our sense of being separate.  I only know how to do that in mediation or moments of deep contemplation the I release my awareness of my body.

As long as we are identifying ourselves as humans we need contrast in order to understand anything. We need straight in order to perceive crooked. That’s why, we, in our human-ness, think of ourselves as Yin and Yang, masculine and feminine and therefore separate ourselves from each other.  When in fact, there is a feminine in the masculine and masculine in he feminine and energy moves in a constant cycle that contains both. 

The Truth is we are one all one encompassing vibration

Call it Tao, or All that Is, or the Nowhere That We Came From, it is the fundamental energy – It. Oneness.  There is no separateness.  There is no you and me, there is only One – Tao – All that Is – the Great Nothingness.  Let’s explore how we can know more about Oneness. How we can understand it.  How we can experience it. 

There comes a point in most of my mediations that my awareness of my body disappears and I seem to float off to wherever I go.  Shamanic Journeying is my major mediation of choice, but I also experience that in  Transcendental Meditation which is mantra based and also disappears my body very radially. Mantras are good.  Mudras are good. Slow breathing is good. Sitting still in nature is good. Those are all methods to help you disappear your experience of being a body – a separate body.  They help you merge into the experience of ONE. 

I like to use the word Tao to describe this oneness because it does not create an image for me.  It simply is a  fundamental, inclusive, non image-provoking word. 

Tao refers to our all-ness,  our oneness. It is the fundamental non-body experience. When you experience Tao you are in every thing ,of everything ,You are everything. 

How do we experience Tao?  How do we understand its concept? How do we feel it? How do we become it? There’s no becoming toTao.  We already are Tao. 

Don’t fall into the trap of being the observer.  Be the be-er.  Be Tao. Be All-That-Is.  Just BE One. 

Learn to immerse yourself in and merge with the Unseen World

I use shamanic journeying to experience myself as being in and of the Unseen World. The Unseen World is where I  begin to explore and experience the concept of one. And still, I perceive my helping spirits as physical form metaphors that have meaning to me here in my human expression. 

In mediation, I can disappear my body and yet my mind is still here, one last thread holding me separate. With patience I can leave my awarenss behind and experience oneness.  I get better with practice.

I want to bring this experience of Oneness more clearly into my human experience. To help me deepen my immersion in the Field of Oneness.  I could look for similarities rather than differences. That might change how I view others. I would experience the oneness of Tao in them. 

I could find my commonality with nature. Spend more time in a receptive silence just listening and feeling. I would experience the oneness of Tao then. 

Staying mindful of our Oneness helps us be more present, more aware, more reflective and accepting of a moment, an action, an experience.  

Perhaps being mindfully aware is as close as we, here in our body expression, can get to the Oneness of Tao. But we can keep practicing and we will get better at experiencing everything as one.

When you begin to deepen  your connection with nature – the wind, the sun, the earth, – the gradual growth of a plant, the simple celebration of life cycles thoughout the flow of nature – you begin to release your awareness of you as separate and begin to immerse yourself in oneness.

I like the world “tranquility.”   I create ways to experience tranquility. When I sit in a chair, and move deeply into  my inner experience, I begin to release all my body restrictions. I become tranquil.  It is a stillness that encompasses and embraces everything. It is All That Is. 

I want to deepen that experience. I want to feel my awareness of “self”  merge with the Unseen World.  I want to experience that All-ness, that Oneness – and disappear me as a planetary presence in a body.

I can do that when I allow myself to merge with the Unseen World. 

We consider this concept on One as well as we can from our human separateness.

And we can use our human-ness to merge with the Great All-ness, the Unseen World.

So we are aware that as long as we experience ourselves as confined to our bodies, we will continue to experience ourselves as separate.  We don’t want that.  We want to experience ourself as one all encompassing vibration

We are Oneness. With practice and focused choice, we can learn to experience ourselves as one.  It is from that stage of deep inner stillness that I began to feel and experience my absorption into the All.

One of the ways I explore oneness is exploring the Unseen World.  There are many ways to do that.  We do it in our dreams.  We do that in our imagination, in  mediation, in shamanic journeying. 

It is said that 95% of everything is unseen.  That’s means we are relying on 5% of what exists to understand and live our ives.  We have some exploring to do.  It is up to you to find your own path to the Unseen World. 

It could be the sense of disappearing into the melody of a song.  It could be total absorption in a moment in which you are totally unaware of your separate body.  Sometimes when I write, my body disappears and all tat is left are my fingers typing what is being shared through me from the Unseen World, the part of the All-ness I have set out to explore. 

But I also explore the Unseen World though Shamanic journeying where we are taught that whatever image shows up is a metaphor for something only we can interpret. I have guides and helping spirits that regularly  appear, and then sometimes I experience being asked to disappear my experience as a body and float in the Void and experience whatever I experience. I am given  messages and guidance when I go exploring in the Unseen World.  I have figured out that my job is to bring back the insights I am given and figure out way to apply them in the expression of our human constrictions.  Then share them with you.

Find your own pathway to experience your essence in the Al That Is. You may lose the limitations of your body though singing or drumming or running.  You may lose your awareness of being a separate self in nature. Experiment and find your own way into the Oneness of All.

Everything is One Energy

Absorb this concept. Live this concept.  We are all ONE energy. 

The vibration you put out affects the whole.  Begin there and monitor your thoughts and words and actions. Make certain they are for the highest good of all.

Begin to see yourself reflected in the actions of others and the world around you. It is you coming back to you.  The energy you put out comes right back at you. You can control what you put out.  Make more conscious choices in all you say and do and think. 

Become more aware of how you hold yourself apart. Begin to see others as a reflecdtion of you.

Initiate more quiet time in which you allow your body to disappear as you move into greater connection with Tao. All That Is. The Emptiness That Holds Everything.  Disappear your body and Be present in One. 

 We Are One With the Whole. We ARE the wholeness.

Deeper Song Process

  • Begin to notice your tendency to see yourself as separate rather than as one. 
  • Go to nature. In reflective silence let yourself experience an element of nature – a tree, a rock, the wind. Take time to lose your awareness of your body and merge with the nature element you have chosen. 
  • Notice how your body gradually disappears as you connect more deeply with the nature element you have chosen. 
  • As you move through your life, notice how separately you hold yourself and begin, at least mentally, to put yourself in the other person’s place, or merge with their energy or wrap that other person in loving energy that you hold out to them. 
  • Interact from a position of being one energy with everything and everyone  
  • Repeat frequently.

Deeper Song Affirmation

I spend time in mindful silence and feel myself fill with the presence of One. I carry that with me throughout my day. 

  • I hope I brought you some new awareness, deeper ways to connect and insights and encouragement for your next steps. 
  • Pause to be with what we have explored.  See what portals have opened up for you.  Where you will go exploring next.  This is a Journey of Discovery and we walk this part of the path together.

Insights From A Deeper Song

Ashe
(“Ah-Shay”)
 The Creative in me honors the Creative in you!

When I was a spiritual counselor in the Center for Spiritual Living in Santa Rosa, California several of us were always assigned to do High Watch for the service.  That meant we stayed focussed on the energy not the details of the service. 

I’m holding High Watch for the US elations.  I’m holding High Watch for the world and the pandemic. I’m holding High Watch for the environment.  

You get what you believe you deserve and what you believe is possible.  So although I have no clue how this gigantic evolution of multi-faceted change will unfold, I do know what I need to do. Hold a vision.  A vision of all of us living in harmony and inclusiveness  A vision of caring for each other.  A vision of new choices that save our environment.  

This period of time is a huge opportunity to manifest change.  We do that by our expectation – what we believe we deserve and what we believe is possible.

Look closely at what you are thinking. Turn it toward a positive outcome. 

All of humanity needs to be kinder to each other,  All of humanity needs to care for the environment. As I watch those who step forward to lead work to unify these varied needs and beliefs I am grateful that there are those who want to help us untangle what we have woven and move into an experience of harmony and inclusiveness and conscious caring for our planet and each other. That is the vision I hold.  I keep being myself living in the image of that environment – where everyone seeks to choose for the highest good for all.  

We make this positive change as we raise our own vibration and vision and believe in our ability to manifest change.  

We must be persistent and consistent.

How to Lob Light Balls to the World

An Exploration of the Unseen World

Sometimes I feel helpless, sitting here, one person with a great desire to heal our world.  I always feel better when I lob a few light balls to the areas of conflict.

Lob a light ball.  We can all do that.  I don’t see it as putting out a fire, I see it as raising the vibration so those who see it recognize their own powerful personal light and bring their light to the situation they are in.  

And when they, do, when they join us, we collectively raise the vibrio of the planet.

Inner Work

THANK YOUR BODY

The instructions were simple – appreciate your body, let it know you care.  

A month or so ago I Christina Gerber energetically removed a blockage in my right hip. I was emotionally aware of it leaving.  When I woke the next morning I knew my pelvis and realigned.  But that also meant that all the surrounding muscles were truly ticked off at being asked to work in a different manner.  It makes sense to talk to your body.  So I use essential oils, I thanked my body for its realignment, and together we are working things out.

What part of our body do you need to thank today?

***

Outer Work

ADJUST AND KEEP GOING

I have to get creative to accommodate the dry macular degeneration in my eyes. I have used the dictation feature on my Mac before but after really working at making the corrections to my typing, it occurred to me that I must begin to use it more often.  (Choose Edit >speech from the Edit menu) I have to say the punctuation out loud.  And I think super fast and type super fast so there will be some adjustments in my delivery speed. But in the long run, it will make the Grammarly check steps faster and easier because it will be typed in right in the first place.  That’s a change I am going to make.  

What fairly large change do you need to make that will serve you better in the long run?

***

PASSIVE INCOME

I consider myself an entrepreneur and when I was coaching I coached entrepreneurs.  There is a concept called passive income. That means you create something that people can buy without direct interaction with you  Thus the idea of “passive”  You make money while you sleep. You create it, make it available online and accept the income.

An online course comes to mind. You create a learning experience, put it in an online learning environment, and go create something else.  Does that idea fit into your business plan?

I guess most of our work goes off on its own to help those who find it.  New people continue to join our Deeper Song Coming from all over the world and I have absolutely no idea how they found me. But I do put my offering out there – a lot.  

Expand where and how you offer your work and let those who need it find it.  

Whether you create something to serve as a lead magnet or passive income, give some thought to what you can offer to help people connect with you with a smile click on a link.

THE ART OF NEGATION

Jake Tapper was interviewing US Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and one of the most compelling things she said was that she looked forward to collaborating with Joe Biden.  Theire views are a bit different but when both sides are willing to move toward a middle ground, progress is made. 

There seem to be many reasons we hold on to our views. But they are just that  – our viewpoint just s others hold their own viewpoint.  

When negotiating, we begin by looking at the overall objective.  What is our common goal? Once we establish that, we begin to discuss the options, the details.  But first, we have to have an agreed-upon common goal. 

That takes us back to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.  If you are in survival you cannot think about esoteric overviews. Know who you choose to serve and seek out those who are in a mindset to see the overview and the possibilities that resonate with you.  

Where are you on the pyramid and what are you able to see and consider from there? 

***

KNOW  YOUR ROLE

One of the interesting aspects of being old is that you sure can look back and see the patterns, patterns that kept returning.  I’m a good writer (I took that skill into professional radio and television and copywriting)  I’m a great organizer I’ve had my share of being in charge of things) I have used what I learned in my degrees in theater to move into podcasting. 

Look at where you are now and identify the most satisfying things you do.  It can be at work, at home or at play. What action makes you feel centered, focused, aligned, and gives you great joy and satisfaction?

Do more of that.

It’s good to know what your role is in the overall unfolding.

DEEPER SONGS I HEARD THIS WEEK

Online learning is a fabulous way to expand your world.  I am in a weekly Shamanic Class with Hank Wesselman, I just signed up for a FB group with shamanist  Sandra Ingerman and I am taking an advanced native flute course with Christine Stevens.  I’ve been on several summits this year – Shamanism, Sound Healing, Qi Gong.

OUR EVOLVING FUTURE

The US election is this week and we truly are fighting for the soul or our country.  We each have a choice because we are a democracy.  And we live with that majority chooses because we are a democracy.  

How we contrite to our future is by changing ourselves.  We need to monitor our beliefs, our actions, our thoughts.  Keep raising your vibration and shining your iight.  Stand up for our one-ness

CARA’S CORNER

THE PATH AHEAD 

My sense of strong change for my work is well, getting stronger.  I am patient and I am alert.  I am also excited.  

As the year comes to a close I pause to see what has changed. I like what I am experiencing. There is a whole new year ahead and oddly enough I cannot look very far into it because I am so content with what I have crafted in the here and now. But this increasing awareness of unfolding continues. It is exciting and I am patient.

I know that new portals of exploration are beginning to open. I will keep journeying to deepen my adventures in the Unseen World, but I have no timeline.  I only see the coming year as a slowly opening doorway to… who knows.  I’m going exploring…

I do know that I am going to offer more processes in my podcasts, experiences you can have as you listen.  That’s a rewarding new emphasis – learning techniques to deepen our connection with the unseen world.

I can feel something changing for me so I have begun to listen and see what I can learn.

It may mean looking at the harvest of my year to see what worked and what I want to do more of – and less of.

I am coming into balance.. As I get better at recording and editing, my offerings, in particular, have become balanced in the time and energy it takes to do them.

On a personal level, I have some new habits that I have begun or are evolving that are both physical and spiritual.

I am listening to my guides to see what I am to share with you. It’s like waiting to open a present!!!!

But most of all I am aware of a slight shift in my purpose that will affect what I offer. I cain’t put that into words yet, but I feel the shift and it is changing where I look for my answers. 

Go exploring and see what your inner voice tells you about change and the year that is approaching.

How to Lob Light Balls to the World

An Exploration of the Unseen World

Sometimes I feel helpless, sitting here, one person with a great desire to heal our world.  I always feel better when I lob a few light balls to the areas of conflict.

Lob a light ball.  We can all do that.  I don’t see it as putting out a fire, I see it as raising the vibration so those who see it recognize their own powerful personal light and bring their light to the situation they are in.  

And when they, do, when they join us, we collectively raise the vibrio of the planet.  

Pretty good work for an old lady in the Midwest.  Will you join me?

I’m Cara Lumen, spiritual philosopher and founder of the Deeper Song Community. I am a cosmic explorer who consciously travels into the unseen world to serve as a bridge to help us expand our relationship with the spiritual world. I share what I learn and guide those who are ready to the next level so we can sing a deeper song.  

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

In this episode of Reflections of a Deeper Song, we learn How to Lob Light Balls to the World.

I don’t remember when I first started lobbing light balls. But I know why I did.  I’m 88 and my activist choices seem to be centered in intentional energy work. We can all do that. 

Sometimes I sit here and watch the many disruptions all over the planet and I feel a bit inadequate to do anything. Until I remember Light Balls.  I can lob Light balls any place I want.  Like Lebron James or Steph Curry, just making one ringer after another.  

A Light Ball carries your intention. 

A Light Ball raises vibration.

A Light Ball encourages others to raise their own light.  

That’s a lot of positive change coming for lobbing a light ball!

Light Balls carry your intention.

A light ball is just that – light – vibrating wholeness. It carries with it a higher vibration that enables us, each and eery one of us, wherever we are, to send a light ball of raised vibrational energy to any situation, any person, any group of people, or any disruption in nature. 

Our initial tendency is to work only from within our body existence and allow ourselves to feel limited by our thoughts and our emotions. Bur remember  when we are so much more than that. Our Higher Self works in the Unseen World and it can do anything!!!

Lobbing a Light ball is extremely empowering.

For me, the purpose of a light ball is to do just that, bring some light into the darkness, some compassion and inclusion and – you get the picture – a Light Ball goes and does what light does – it raises the vibration and reminds us that we are all one energy. 

That’s pretty powerful stuff. 

How do we use these Light balls?  Why do we use these light balls?

A light Ball raises vibration.

Sometimes I lob a lot of light balls in one direction.  Sometimes I toss light balls more often than at other times  but the intention is the same – to remind us all that we are one whole interconnected vibration, that there is no difference and we harm ourselves when we harm others.  

That’s a lot of powerful results come from a little light ball. 

I have also been known to toss a light ball up in the air and then stand under it till it bops me on the head and I get it!

Now, I could attach a strong intention to the light ball I lob, but light is light and it is whole and that’s what I want to send – the awareness of, the feeling of the knowledge of our oneness, our wholeness, our inclusion in the one energy. 

A light ball.  Lob a light ball…

I suppose we could make them colored, but I’ll leave that up to the light ball.  And since I send it with my intention, I don’t even have to be a particularly good shot  – it knows where it is to go.

Light Balls know where they are needed, so you can toss them in the air with a general intention, and like a guided missile, off they go.  

And you can also focus light balls on a specific situation or an energy of unrest.

I journeyed to find out how best to use Light Balls.  Here are some of the insights I received:

Light balls carry a high vibration that can raise the consciousness of any situation.

Light balls know where their energy is needed.

Light balls know whose heart is open.

Light balls carry a high vibration that can raise the consciousness of any situation.

When you chose to Lob a Light Ball you begin by raising your vibration, by making your intention be for the highest good of all. You do not choose an outcome, you simply send in a higher vibration though the Light. 

Light balls know where the energy is needed

Let the light balls go out into the planet’s atmosphere and like a programed drone, know where they are to go, where they are needed.  There is great power in the light.  We may choose an overall intention to send light balls to a special situation but then we release the light balls so they can go where they are most needed.  There is no way we can know whose heart is open or who is ready to change, but Light does.  Light knows who is ready to raise their vibration and it will move to those who are ready.  Ready to raise their vibrato-in  Ready to raise their light.   

Light balls know where their energy is needed.

Light balls know whose heart is open.

A light ball is an intently raised vibration that goes where it is needed. A Light Ball encourages those it lands on to raise their own light.  

So here’s what is happening.  This is a transformative period in which those of us who are aware of ourselves as light move more deeply into our light center, raise our vibration, and move into a new level of conscoioiusness . Not everyone is called to this next step, but those of us who are, are to act as a bridge for others who are ready to raise their awareness and move into the new consigns. We do that through our example. We do that by raising our vibration and sending out light.  One of the ways we can do that is by lobbing night balls.  

What happens when a person reeve the light ball? They recognize the light within themselves and recognize it as a part of themselves they want to cultivate and expand.  They respond. They look up and there, encircling the planet is an ever-thickening layer of light – our collective, intentional energy, our combined energy holding high watch for the world, inviting other beings to join us.  We are joined in raising the collective consciousness all over the world. 

Those who see, respond.  They raise their vibration. They begin sharing their own light in a more conscious way.  The world balances. 

Light balls know who’s heart is open.  They are heart-seeking missiles that are drawn to those who are ready to open their hearts further and raise their vibration and move into the New Consciousness. 

Just as the roots of the trees connect all trees to each other under the ground, our light, our intention healing light, our light of oneness, will journey where it is needed in the situation or person you direct them to. They know what is needed.  They know the specific place to shed light to change the entire trajectory of the situation.

Light Balls know where to go, who is ready to receive their enlightened energy. Bless the light balls, release  them and let your general intention carry them where they are most needed, to those who are ready to receive them, to bring the light into their heart and create positive change. 

It only takes a second to lob a light ball.  One thought, one intention and it’s done.

Lob a light ball to a friend who is struggling. 

Lob a light ball to people and places on the planet that are struggling. 

Toss a Light ball up in the air and stand under it until it bops you on the head…

It’s not about looking for negative energy, it is more about encouraging you to feel that you are working for a higher good and it is effective. 

Next time you are feeling a tad helpless, get out our bag go light balls and like a ball throwing machine, start tossing them out into our world with the intention that those who see them and are ready, will recognize that light within themselves and will join us in the collective consciousness that is forming a layer of fling around our planet.  

Where will you lob light balls today?

Insights From A Deeper Song

Ashe
(“Ah-Shay”)
 The Creative in me honors the Creative in you!

I sat here buzzing with the powerful energy from the items I had placed in front of  me.  I felt I was being surrounded with healing, wholing, energy and I just sat there and soaked it in. The  energy flowing toward me was incredibly powerful. 

I had just rearranged the items I have around me at my desk, in particular, the shelf I face that is an altar.  Granted, I have lots of great crystals and meaningful objects but this was a huge and unexpected experience.  

I have a small desk with a shelf across the back. I have been using for my major altar since I spend a lot of time at my desk. I took everything off the shelf and then listened to my inner voice to see what belonged there now.  

I journeyed to recite guidance from my helping spirits.  

I was told my shelf alter was to have three areas, each with a specific intention. The middle area was to guide me on my inner world exploration to the Unseen world,  the right side was to honor my guardians and guides and the left side was for my personal transformation. 

I listened to my inner voice as I intuitively selected things to put back on the shelf/alar. Not everything was returned. Sometimes it made a difference where an item was placed.  Even a few inches sometimes felt different.  I would hear an inner voice that said no, it belongs over there”.  So I moved it. I put back less than I took off and I can clearly identify the three areas of personal choice, adventure, and guidance from the Unseen World.

I had a lot of things left over.

I moved them away from the area and sat there with my newly arranged shelf/alter and felt the energy surround me –  More energy than I have possibly ever felt from simply rearranging objects.  I became wrapped in and healed by and guided by the arrangements of the items I had chosen and placed there. 

I sat there for a long, long time and absorbed the powerful energy flowing from my new altar arrangement.   I became aware that my arrangement suggested a triangle with me as the point. No wonder I was blown away by the energy. As I sit at my desk my altar sends me very intense, powerful energy.  

And all I had done was clean and rearrange one shelf.  

It was interesting to have a purpose for each area.  Particularly the area that held the objects that were to help me create change in my life.  Change is about letting go and making room for and consciously choosing what I want in m life.  

My mala beads are in that area and I will use them each time I journey.  Three are in a stone bowl with rocks from New Zealand and Hawaii and Australia that were gifts that called loudly to be worked with more often. They have very powerful energy and much guidance to offer.  I added a multipointed calcite that represents an antenna for my healing voice and my podcasts going off into the world. In my adventure area I have items that represent my path and a multi-pointed light box crystal that to me represents a space ship going off to adventure.  My first power animal was a dragon so my alter has several.  And in the area that reprints my guides and guardian in the unseen world I have a small vase with a lotus that represents may wiliness as a receptive adventurer to accept ongoing changes. On the wall behind my altar is a lithograph I have carried with me for 50 years of a manual typewriter on a desk with a conch shell on the bookshelf behind it – writing is at the core of my life.  

I have been working with energy for a long, long, long time and this was one of the most powerful experiences I have ever had. 

It came from listening to my inner voice and making conscious choices.  

That’s a good way to live life.  

Place your altar in a place where you spend a lot of time. With the space empty,  mediate and let your guides suggest and deepen the purpose of the whole altar or a specific part of it. Then follow your inner voice and make choices. Thoughtfully and with energetic awareness place items in it. Let things call to you from all over your home. Choose one at a time, listening to where it wants to go. Sometimes even a shift of a few inches makes a difference in the power of the energy. 

What you keep around you makes a huge difference in the energy you experience. 

This altar is in my workspace. I send a lot of time here.  But I also have altars by my meditation char.  Take your time and energetically and mindful manifest and arrange your altars.

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I create an altar that deepens my insight and awareness.

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

  • Select a location for your altar.
  • What is the purpose of that space?  Creativity, contemplation, inspiration, steady workflow?
  • Take everything out of that space and begin by looking at the location it occupies in the room. I turned my meditation chair to face the window so I can look out at nature while I play my flutes. The back of the chair now faces the room, but I face nature!
  • Put back the essentials.  My compeer for instance since my altar is at my workspace.. Will a slight change in positioning make a difference in the natural light? What do I need within reach?
  • Take your time.  Sit with each item you bring back in to hear where it would like to be placed.   
  • Be sensitive to how the energy changes with each addition.  Sometimes even slight adjustments make big changes in the energy.
  • When it feels complete, stop.  
  • Do this selective energetic practice to create other altars in your home

The Power Of Our Luminous Light

An Exploration of the Unseen World

There are specific steps you can take to consciously expand your awareness of your luminous energy. With deepened awareness comes an increased awareness of our collective energy as we experience that energy joining with others to balance our world. Let me show you how to consciously expand our Luminous Light Energy and expand our Light Collective.

HOW TO DEAL WITH NEGATIVITY

What you focus on you see.  But even as you look for and find positivity in our life, some negative may show up.  How do you protect yourself?

Raise your vibration.  Shine your light brighter.  

You can easily put up a Transformative Shield; (How to Create a Transformative Energy Shield for Protection ) which changes negativity into positivity – the fear or anger or apprehension you feel is immediately transformed and the negative energy that reaches the outside of your Transformative Shield also changes into positive energy to go back to the sender….

The next time you come across anyone who is angry or negative, put up your Transformative Shield and sit there and radiate light.  You do not move into the energy of the other person or the situation. Shift your focus to your own heart. Take some centering breaths, and sit there and radiate out streams of positive, high vibration.  

Notice if and how and when the negative person or situation changes. 

You now have control over your response to any negativity that shows up in a person or a situation

Outer Work

REDEFINE YOUR OFFERING

In these changing times, we need to develop a new perspective about how we earn our living, how we are in service, how we develop our own entrepreneurial offerings. 

For instance, I was coaching someone who wants to help people with money management and I realized the word “money” is not as meaningful as the words that describe what money brings us – safety, food, shelter – some people are having a harder time with those basics than others. Money also means learning, security, free time, adventure, an easy retirement…

So a goal of helping people with their money is not targeted enough and not emotionally connected enough.  If you are focusing on an entrepreneurial business, what specific outcome can you offer that will change a core situation for those you want to serve? What can you teach/show others how to do that will change their lives?

For instance, my podcast, Reflections of a Deeper Song helps us:

  • Expand our relationship with our inner world and learn to interpret its powerful guidance.
  • Raise the frequency of our vibration so we can be of greater service to the planet
  • Expand our role as Transformational  Leaders in the Unfolding of the New Consciousness

I help transcendent leaders who are stepping forward to define their role and potential participation so together we can build the bridges and pathways that guide us all into the New Consciousness. 

The catch is, none of this is very specific, it is more about an unfolding journey, an evolving future so I can only address the energy that we are cultivating in order to move into this new way of being.  But I do offer specific tools to use during the journeys that keep you aligned with your sou’s purpose.

Explore some phrases that describe your service to others and see if they open up some new portals to be explored. 

Who do you help and what do you help them do?

THE POWER OF YOUR INDIVIDUAL CHOICE

I voted this week. I have not missed an election since I started voting.  What a powerful experience to know that I have a voice in this world, in my country, in my city.  

We must make informed choices, thoughtful choices for the highest good for all and vote our conscious.

THE ENERGY OF THE PLANETS

I’m not very deep into Astrology but I have noticed that my actively seem to slow down right before the New Moon and my energy and willingness and accomplishments take off with the New Moon.  It’s rather like being shot out of a cannon.

If this interests you, begin to notice your seemingly stuck times and your I-can-do-anything times and see if the moon phases have anything to do with it.  Then plan accordingly.

OUR POSTURE

Bending over a computer or a phone will eventually make you unable to stand up straight. I know this from experience. 

Between bifocals and diminishing eyesight, and a huge amount of time at my computer, my body has not been happy. It resists standing up straight. Then I discovered this awesome OMOTON Laptop Stand, Adjustable Laptop Stand for Desk, Portable Foldable Laptop Holder 

It raises and tilts your laptop so you have to sit up straight with your shoulders relaxed. It is already proving to be be a posture game-changer!  It would make a great stocking stuffer.

Look at your own posture.  Look at the posture of your chorine and begin now to make the changes that keep your spine straight.  You want to be able to stand upright in your old age! Trust me

OUR EVOLVING FUTURE

I am sensing a new  awareness of my unfolding role in the New Consciousness.  It has not taken shape yet but I can feel it evolving.  I am fascinated. I am patient.  I am curious, and I am willing.  

Watch for the nudges from the Unseen World and see how where they are taking you.

CARA’S CORNER

THE YEAR AHEAD

I’m a bit ahead of myself here but I’m giving some thoughts to next year, 2021.  What would I like it to hold for me, for the planet?  You begin by looking at where you are now because all your thoughts and actions brought you here. 

A few things for me are settled. Podcasts are ow my preferred platform  I love writing in this newsletter all week.  I like the Still Point quotes I offer because I have to consider them more deeply myself in order to write the sentences and process. So in one sense, I’m tucked in with my work for the coming year. 

But what needs to unfold is my direction.  I know it is exploring the Unseen World but since it is the Unseen World and I only know to use intentions to direct my exploration, I cannot make plans. 

Now that’s actually a good thing as I participate in this changing world we are living in.  We do not know the future so how do we make plans?

For me, the strongest step is to listen to my Inner Voice.  The more I listen the more I hear.  I pay attention.  Often it is in the form of a phrase I like and I sit down and write how we might apply that or add that concept to our consciousness.

We have to trust.  Trust that the perfect ideas will come to us and trust that we will hear them and trust that the steps we figure out to take are the most effective ones. 

So there is not much to do right now except look back over the year and see what was effective, what I had a great time doing, what touches my heart, and see if I can find some clues to what is going to unfold. 

Then I have to trust. I have to trust my body to hear the messages and trust my ability to apply what I am shown and share it in a way that you get it too. 

2021.  Look over your year at what you have harvested and give some thought to what you want to plant next year.

The Power Of Our Luminous Light

An Exploration of the Unseen World

We have great power. We have great power as individuals and we have even more power as a collective.

I would like to teach you a simple, powerful meditative practice that will expand our Light Collective. 

There are specific steps you can take to consciously expand your awareness of your luminous energy. With deepened awareness comes an increased awareness of our collective energy as we experience that energy joining with others to balance our world. Let me show you how to consciously expand our Luminous Light Energy. 

I’m Cara Lumen, spiritual philosopher and founder of the Deeper Song Community. I am a cosmic explorer who consciously travels into the unseen world to serve as a bridge to help us expand our relationship with the spiritual world. I share what I learn and guide those who are ready to the next level so we can sing a deeper song.  

Thank you for being a part of this journey.

In this episode of Reflections of a Deeper Song, we talk about The Power Of Our Luminous Light

It is important to know how to work with the Power Of Our Luminous Light because it raises our own vibration and it empowers us to make a difference in our world and in our lives and in and the lives of others. Raising our Luminous Light firmly establishes us in the Collective Consciousness that is raising the vibration of the entire planet. 

Find a quiet place in which to experience your Luminous Light where you will not be disturbed. This is a guided mediation.

We begin by centering ourselves. Become aware of the place four inches below your belly button. It is called the Tan Tien and it is the center of energy in your body, your chakra energy system. If you like, you can place your hands upon your abdomen but you can also just sit quietly and feel the energy expand from that Tan Tien place of power.  

Take a slow breath and breathe into your TanTien in your lower abdomen.  Feel it expand and quicken.  Let that energy radiate and expand.  Exhale.

Continue to breathe evenly and allow this inner light energy to become more intense.  Feel it radiate throughout your torso.  Let light energy fill your legs. Let light energy fill your arms and hands and fingers. Let light energy fill your head, the back of your head, your face, your crown, your third eye,  feel that energy fill your head.  Your whole body is tingling, your third eye is expanding. You become aware of your connection to the unseen worlds. Allow this core energy to expand until you feel you are radiating luminous energy –  light energy, vibrational energy from every pore in your body. Feel that pushing vibration radiate out. Feel that radiant energy create a golden circle around your entire body.

Now that we have centered our selves in our Tan Tien, the second step is to expand our light. 

With each exhale, feel your vibration strengthening in power and reach. Sit quietly and tingle and radiate energy from your entire body. As you align your whole being with the energy body created at your spiritual core, feel yourself heal and balance in your physical expression, feel your vibration increase in power as you heal and balance all levels of your body –  physical, emotional, spiritual. 

As you mindfully absorb your inner light, begin to extend that light into your room. Fill that room with your increasing,  vibrating light energy. Each corner, each object, absorbs the light and begins to radiate at a higher frequency. The whole room is humming with balanced energy.

Extend your radiating energy to the rest of your home. Extend your radiating energy to the land surrounding your home. Extend your radiating energy to your community. Extend your radiating energy to the world. Sit there in this amazing state of tingling vibration, feeling yourself  radiating, sharing your light energy, your radiant energy,  your spiritual energy with the entire planet.  

Firsts, we have centered our energy in our Tan Tien, we have raised our vibration within our body. Then we have sent that raised vibration out into the world.  The third step is to join our raised energy with the raised energy of others to increase the power of the collective field. 

It takes being light to see other lights. Now that you are were of our own raised vibration, you will easily recognize others who have raised theirs. 

Notice the other vibrating lights nearby.  They may be colored. They may be iridescent. They may be pulsing. They may be steady. 

Consciously and intentionally begin to join your radiating light with theirs until the entire group of luminous lights encircles the earth and the layer of light grows deeper and thicker as more luminous lights join in. 

Then just be.  Be that vibration. Be pure light. Know that you are a part of a global and galactic healing that is taking place by the simple act of being aware of being light, raising that light, and consciously radiating light in tote world.   Feel your power increase as you join your energy with others in this powerful and ever-expanding field of light energy  

Sit there as long as you like.

When you are ready, know that your light still radiates at this tiger frequency, even as you gradually bring your attention back to an awareness of the existence of your body. Return your focus to your Tan Tien.  Sit there and radiate out your expanded light field, your own Luminous Light.

You can access your Luminous Light any time.  Once you establish your awareness of your luminous light body it will become easier to access in more conscious moments. 

The steps are: 

  • Establish your awareness of the luminous light within you and raise your vibration. 
  • Radiate your energy body into the world. You join with others doing the same, each raised light expanding the growing power of the collective consciousness. 
  • You experience everything as one.  One energy. One spiritual essence. One All That Is.

Slowly bring your awareness back into your body and notice how you feel.  You have just expanded your Luminous Light 

This is how we change our world. This is how we change our future.  By raising our vibration and  radiating light. We don’t direct our energy field.  We simply radiate and expand our vibration and those who are ready, when they are ready, will recognize that vibration within themselves and consciously join their light with ours, their vibration with ours.  And the light field of illumined energy will grow stronger and brighter.  

Take this Luminous Light Journey every day. This is our collective energy body, core light, whole light, and it will attract others to join with it in wholeness – on all levels – in your body and in your Invisible self.  Your aura extends 22 feet from your body so as you radiate you will be sharing your light with all you pass on the physical plane.

That is how we heal the world.  This is how we heal ourselves.

Radiate Luminous Light – every day.
