Are You in the Right Place of Service?

February 3, 2022 By Cara Lumen

Are You in the Right Place of Service?

Living Our Deeper Song

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

My daughter’s job is making her sick – literally.  It is a big job that she created in a reorganizational move at the company she has worked in for twenty years and it is working very well. But it is a big job and it is making her sick.  I don’t know why. It may be that she cares too much. Maybe because she met with some resistance to change in general as they reorganized departments and combined some.  It’s never very easy when the people you are trying to help resist and make it harder on themselves. She has had to fire some people which was very hard for her to do. Her job is literally making her sick. And at the same time, she keeps getting large raises because management recognizes the value of what she is doing. 

Here’s the other catch.  She is just a few years from retirement and the insurance coverage she needs. Plus, they keep giving her more money. There is motivation to hang in there. When I asked who she was grooming for the job, she said, “No one else wants it.” That says a lot. 

Does your work still make you happy or are you simply hanging in there until retirement?  Is your work rewarding and satisfying?  What will you do if it is not?

We deserve to be happy and productive.  Are you making choices that provide you with the depth of life experience that you want and deserve or are you locked into one facet of your life so deeply that you are giving more of yourself than you are receiving?  That’s called burnout.  And it sneaks up on you.

My work is certainly changing rapidly, not in what I do but in what I explore and share, the direction my exploration is going, and the new insights that are emerging.  With the rapidly changing technical world, I think a good majority of people now working may not be able to change directions partially because of the unknown skills and knowledge that are needed in the new industries. 

I don’t have an answer.   

But after we retire, we have another 30 years to be proactive.  Are you looking ahead?  Are you learning what you need to know?

For instance, I have come to realize that the training and reasoning behind internet marketing that I have worked with for a lot of years may very well be not as effective today. Only a few digital entrepreneurs are actively exploring to discover how to build entrepreneurial businesses in the current environment. On top of that, we the people don’t know what is possible let alone what we want to choose from in this new smorgasbord of opportunities.

I don’t have an answer here, it’s more of a question.  Are you still in the right place of service and if not, where do you want to be, and how to you plan to get there?

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I look more closely at where I am, where I am headed, and where I really want to go and I make changes to take me there. 

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

  • Notice how your work has changed. Is it still something you want to do?  
  • What new cause, industry, or need is calling to you?
  • Go exploring and see how to do that work.

===INNER WORK===

Life is a Series of Options

In every moment you have a choice. Do this or not. Think this or don’t. What is the standard that you hold that helps you choose from the options presented to you? Do you choose what is easiest? Do you choose what nurtures your mind? Do you choose what nurtures your inner world? Life is a series of options. What are the standards by which you make your choice?

I Don’t Pray, I Connect

When I was in my 20s, I met a man who said he was an ex-priest and I said, “If I believe that God is within me, what do I do when I need help?” He said, “Dig deeper within yourself. Pull yourself up by your bootstraps.” That was a game-changer in my life and has made me a very self-sufficient person all my life. I am responsible for how my life unfolds.  I am the one to make the changes I desire.

My belief system says that we are all one huge interconnected web. So I see everything as one energy. That means everything I need is within me. There’s nothing out there to pray to. I am responsible for my own outcome. What I do is go within to my Still Point and connect. And listen. And ask questions. And get answers. All by sitting still, going within, and listening. The guidance you seek lies within you.

===SELF-HEALING===

Release, Realign, Restore

In my own self-healing, I realized there were three steps I needed to take – release, realign, and restore. It looks like a pretty good pattern for life. 

The first thing you have to do is release. Release all the layers. Release the damaging thoughts. We have to make room for new growth and new possibilities and new potential. How do we do that? 

We stop doing whatever we’ve been doing that has contributed to the condition we wish to restore.  What is crowding your life? What is keeping you from doing what you want to do or need to do? How can you release that? Or devote less time to it? We have to make room for self-healing. 

The example that prompted this is my body which is slowly realigning. It is restoring its alignment, restoring its strengths. Slowly, but steadily. And not very comfortably. But it is realigning and that makes all sorts of things possible that were not possible before. 

The second step is realigning.  Have you ever emptied a room with the intention of rearranging it for your new needs?  If you empty it out you have room to observe each new placement, each new choice of what to include. And you leave a lot of stuff out.  Do that with your self-healing process. Examine the basics of your self-care and be choosy about what you bring back in.

Gradually, over time, the space you have changed is restored – not to the way it was but to the way it needs to be right now in your life to keep you moving in the new direction you have chosen. 

What do you need to release in your life/body/relationships? What does that newly cleared space allow you to realign and make room for? And what balance is gradually restored in the new space you have created? 

===OUTER  WORRK===

See The Gifts in Others

Pause a moment and think of someone who adds to your life.  Three that immediately come to my mind for me are the staff here where I live who keep the building and grounds repaired and clean and organized. It is a lovely place to be. The second is my new friend and homemaker Shelly, who loves to clean and is making my life possible at this point. The third is my cat Sebastian who is my friend and companion and cohort. So my question is when was the last time you thanked or acknowledged or even thought about the people that add so much grace and beauty and thoughtfulness to your life? Look around. Offer your gratitude to those who are making a difference in your life.

What Are You Avoiding?

It’s easy to put off the hard things for another time that has yet to be decided. But all that does is keep the hard things staring you in the face. What are you avoiding that you need to handle that would make room for a whole new door to open?

I could use more movement in my life. My body would be happier if I did. So I have to think up clever and entertaining ways to move my body. I may put on some jazz music and wiggle. I can put in pauses to stretch as I move around my apartment during the day. I can walk the halls more often and go on a little further. I can practice and get better on my four-wheel walker “Adventurer” so when the weather gets nice again I can go outside more. Then there’s always room for more Qigong. 

What do you need to do that you are avoiding? And what steps will you take in order to move forward?

Meet the Challenge

I had really been putting it off. It was hard to do and I know it was good for me. The day I pushed through it all sorts of positive changes happened. What are you putting off doing that you know would be good for you?

I have a small set of portable rotating foot pedals that I can sit in a chair and pedal that would be good for my hips. However, it is hard to lift my legs to get my feet in the pedals. I’ve tried several methods.  I finally figured out a way to use a strap to lift my leg into the stirrup. Once I was paddling, I was aware of how much good it was doing my hips. The result was pretty immediate as far as how I felt and how I was able to stand. And still, I keep putting that off because getting started is hard for me – a bit of a physical challenge to get my feet in place. But the change and the gift it brings is tremendous. What are you putting off that is a bit challenging but you know if you do it it will have a major impact on your life? Do that.

Qigong Video Recommendation

Qigong for LongevityVideo with Robert Peng. Easy- quick effective. Everyone can do Qigong.

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

Keep it Simple – Sit in Silence

We can get so enthusiastic in our exploration that we clutter up our spiritual practice with too many choices. Pause in your spiritual practice and pick the one thing that moves you the most. Try simply doing that one thing for a few days and see how you can deepen the experience. Experiment with form.  Experiment with timing.  Experiment with intention. Focus on one aspect of your spiritual practice at a time. It could be meditation. It could be vibrational work.  It could be Qigong. It could be reading deepening material. Do one spiritual practice at a time for three days, see how it deepens and how it resonates. Explore another spiritual practice by itself for a few days to expand your awareness of its gifts. Continue to explore and experiment to create the most balanced spiritual practice for you right now. Be flexible in your spiritual practice and keep it simple.

Find Stillness

It takes just a second to take a deep centering breath and move into stillness. You just have to remember to do it. As you move through your life, notice when you start getting rattled or too busy or stressed, and pause, take one deep slow breath, and let stillness seep into all parts of you. Move into that stillness of your mind, take a second breath, and anchor that centeredness.

===HOW TO BE A STRONG CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF THE DIVERSE CIRCLE OF LIGHT BEINGs===

Are “What-If’s” Stopping You?

The interesting thing about trusting your inner voice is that you learn not to question it. You learn to trust it. You learn to explore what it suggests. You may want to imagine how it will play out, but make certain the “what if’s” are not stopping you. What if this happens? What if that happens? What if they don’t? We don’t know how something will play out until we step on the path and explore it. I can’t tell if I’m going to enjoy a book until I start reading it. I can’t tell if I’m gonna have a good time at a party until I go and start interacting with people.

I am diligently and actively looking for my role in the unfolding of the Divine Feminine. What will I miss out on if I don’t explore that next option? I would miss out on a whole adventure. Know that in each moment there is a door opening and step through until you see what it leads to.

===BROADEN YOUR HORIZON – EXPAND YOUR VIEW===

An Informative Interview

Years ago in New York City I learned about an informative interview. You literally call up a business and say you would like to understand your business better and the opportunities it contains and its requirements. May I please have an informative interview about your business? It works will small business owners. 

I had an informative interview with a film distribution company in NYC. Well, it was more of a film distribution person but it was his company and he had a really good time telling me about how his business works. I learned, he shared, and it was a good exchange. I left knowing I had no desire to go into the film distribution industry but that was my gain – I had new knowledge that would guide me on my career path. 

I think we could do the same today with the new industries that are unfolding. I would think that the person in charge of hiring new employees might be a person to ask for an informative interview about the demands and needs of their business so that you might better assess if your skillset has a place in that field and what new skills you need to acquire. I wonder what you would learn. You would learn the skills you need. You would learn the functions of the various jobs. You would learn the culture of the company. And who knows, maybe you’ll get a new job. Go exploring in this day of change and see if there’s a new path for you to embark on. 

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

Dismemberment

Sandra Ingerman had an interesting idea in her latest newsletter – The February Transmutation News.  She suggests that this is a time of dismemberment for us so the Sacred Feminine can emerge. “For dismemberment happens by some destructive force breaking up life as usual so something new can be reborn out of the death of the life we once knew.”

So this is a healing process we are going through, but just as a boil must erupt and a wound must drain itself of the infection, it seems as though the negativity and divisiveness in our world are making sure that we know that negativity is there so we can choose not to let it be there anymore. Awareness plus choice equal change. This is a time of becoming aware and each day we must make conscious choices for the highest good of all in order to manifest the change we desire. Look for the healing. It is there. Nurture it. 

======THE UNFOLDING DIVINE FEMININE=== ===

The Divine Feminine in History – Sekhmet

There are not many female role models among the Gods of Ancient History, Sekhmet is a great one to begin with. 

The Egyptian Goddess Sekhmet was depicted with the body of a woman with a lion head wearing a sun disk. She is best known as the Eye of the Sun, the violent, dazzling, and protecting aspect of the creator god, Ra.

That’s a very big, responsible job. She was seen as the protector of the pharaohs and led them in warfare. When she was in a calmer state she would take the form of the household cat goddess Bastet. Sekhmet was associated both with disease and with healing and medicine.  

She seems to be a woman of eclectic interest and powers. A good example to explore. 

I have begun the book Sekhmet: Transformation in the Belly of the Goddess by Nicki Scully

I plan to connect to Sekhmet through shamanic journeying to gain insights on our role as guardian of our planet. More to come on this new adventure.

Heeding the Call

In our exchange of emails, my friend and international author Deng, Ming-Dao wrote, “If you write a book about the Divine Feminine, I would read it.”

Now I had not thought about a book.   I have been exploring the emergence of the Divine Feminine in this newsletter since for several months but one other prompt had crossed my path when a friend commented that I had already had a lot of powerful interactions with the Divine Feminine in my life.  Looking back that would explain some of the bold and unusual and dramatic choices I have made in my 89 years. 

I know how to create books.  I have a few on Amazon.  I know I like a short form.  There are tools to make preparing them for self-publishing easy although I will have to learn the new versions.  So I have begun.  And I will complete this project because writing is how I figure out things and I want to figure out my role and perhaps our role as the Circle of Light Beings in helping the Divine Feminine take her rightful place of leadership.

Listen to the nudges and calls that come your way and go adventuring.  That’s how you learn what you are to offer the world. 

===SING A DEEPER SONG ===

The nudge was not subtle, it was more like a bop on the head.

The nudge was not subtle, it was more like a bop on the head, but it set up a resonance I could not ignore.

Help Your Inner Voice Speak Louder

January 27, 2022 By Cara Lumen

Help Your Inner Voice Speak Louder

Living Our Deeper Song

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

Universe is always talking to us. Are you listening? Do you recognize it as your Inner Voice? What are you doing with the information it gives you? The Inner Voice is a few steps higher than intuition. It goes into greater detail. Intuition is a hunch, a feeling. Your Inner Voice is a statement – often a complete sentence. In my case, often a series of sentences. But then I’ve been listening to my inner voice for quite a while.

A dear friend of mine recently made a decision to move ahead with a business project that she and I have been talking about for years. My mind immediately went crazy with ideas and content for her website and product ideas and I could hardly shut it off.  It was my Inner Voice dictating to me as fast as I could type. This happens to me fairly often. I wake up and a thought starts coming so I rush to the computer in the middle of the night to capture it. I might be doing something else when a thought pops in that needs to be captured right away and again, I go immediately and write it down, explore it, and capture the expanded idea. When I do this, I feel like I am simply opening a channel and typing what I’m told at the time. I often just dictate. It’s exciting. It’s relevant. And some great ideas are coming through. Clear ideas, complete ideas. Profound ideas. I trust my Inner Voice.

So how did I get to be such good friends with my Inner Voice? I paid attention. I stop and I listen when it shows up – even with a whisper. I have learned to interpret it through the nudges that it gives me, the phrase that suddenly pops into my mind and the complete sentences and paragraphs it often offers. Sometimes it’s like my Inner Voice is simply dictating and I’m just sitting there in the body vehicle to bring it in. 

The more I listen to my inner voice the more I trust it. The inner world speaks to you in hunches, feelings, and sometimes opportunities. You have to notice and respond to what shows up. It’s not enough to receive, one must choose what to pay attention to and then explore it. What form does your inner voice speak to you and are you listening?

Be open to receive.

Practice listening to your Inner Voice and see how detailed it will get for you. Perhaps ask it questions for clarity. Practice following through on the responses that show up and see what great adventures they take you on. Learn to accept a feeling of inner knowing that supports you in making a particular choice. This is you talking to you. The more you listen the more you will hear. Keep listening to your Inner Voice. It has great insights and guidance for you. 

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I listen to the wisdom and guidance of my Inner Voice. 

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

  • Notice the nudges of your Inner Voice. Are they a complete thought? A visualization? A feeling?
  • Follow through on the nudges and notice how accurate they are. Where do they take you?  What do they reveal?
  • Ask your Inner Voice for guidance and clarity.
  • See where that leads you.

===INNER WORK===

Create Space Between Doing and Being

When we cultivate and nurture our inner world, our outer world prospers.  We must set aside time in our daily life to simply be – to be still, to be present, to be aware. To quiet our mind. To listen to our inner voice. It is in the silence that we can evaluate and explore and choose. We monitor our physical plane thoughts and bring them into order so that we can quietly listen to our inner voice. Find times in your day to be still to listen, and to simply be present in the knowing.

===SELF-HEALING===

Do The Work

The reason I am so immersed in understanding how self-healing works is that whatever is going on in my body is mine to rebalance. The doctors have not identified a “problem.”  There are no pills to take or procedures to have because what I think is happening is the gradual realignment of a hip that was tilted. How or when it got tilted I have no idea. But a year ago it un-tilted and my body has been uncomfortably and noticeably realigning ever since. 

So what do you do if you have a physical problem for which there is no Western medicine cure? You start working with energy medicine. You learn about the biofields. You work with Qigong and acupressure and herbs and sound healing and visualization.  And you shift your belief system into the belief that your mind and your beliefs create your reality so the change that you want is all up to you. That’s why I’ve gone exploring. It is all up to me. I need to walk more in order to get my body stronger. I need to consciously stand up straighter to support my body in retraining itself. I have to change my beliefs, but most of all I have to take responsibility and believe that my choices and my intentions will bring my physical body back into balance.  There is no Western medicine procedure to straighten and strengthen my body other than me and the choices I make. What I do or don’t do. Whatever changes my body can manifest are totally up to my actions and my beliefs of what is possible. I’m pretty sure that’s the way it is in all cases. Whatever the symptom that is showing up is a request to change some of the choices you are making or have made and question the beliefs you hold of what is possible.

Now I’m pretty old, so at some point, my body is going to say, “Well we’re through here.’” And that’s OK. But meanwhile, I’m going to take responsibility and do the work to help my body regain some of its strength and flexibility. What do you believe is possible and what are you doing to make it happen? Do the work. You will get the results.

Restorative Self-Care

When was the last time you took a nap? Or a long hot bath? When was the last time you did nothing? Perhaps you sat and looked out the window and were simply present. Self-care is about pauses and choices. It is about meaningful pauses in which you evaluate and question the choices you’ve made and explore new ones. How do you give yourself restorative self-care and how often do you do it?

===OUTER  WORK===

Spread Understanding and Awareness

It was a huge shift for me when I realized that all this world changing was about the Divine Feminine coming into prominence.  When I did, a lot of what was going on began to make sense.  So I’ve been thinking about it and writing about it and sharing my ideas.  The more I am aware of how the Divine Feminine is manifesting, the more understanding I have about how it might unfold and what could be expected of me and how I am to change.  Share your evolving ideas with others.  Find those who are curious and questioning and concerned and together increase your understanding of the energetic changes and your awareness of your role in the unfolding new world view. 

Be More Curious 

We have to be curious.  We have to wonder what we don’t know.  We have to look for how we can do things differently. Then we get to go exploring to see what is available for us to examine next, to do next.  What new adventure will you have today?

Look It Up

When something needs adjusting in your body look up a Qigong move online for it – Qigong for eyes, Qigong for back, Qigong for shoulders.  The exercises are easy to do and powerfully effective.  

I have taken several classes from Daisy Lee on The Shift Network but looking it up online is an easy way to add a few powerful Qigong moves to your life and health. 

Watch for the Signs

It can be a thought, an insight, an opportunity – all are signs that the universe is ready for you to move.  What are people asking of you?  What situation is calling to you to heal and balance? What resistance has dropped and what new role is emerging for you to consider?  Whether it’s a major bop on the head or a small but potent thought, listen to the nudges of the Universe and let them guide you on your path…

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

Intuition and Sacred Knowledge

The oracle card I drew from the SpiritSong Tarot was  The High Priestess – Lynx – Intuition and Sacred Knowledge.  Wow, do I want to be this.  I could live my life around intuition and sacred knowledge.  How do I go deeper?  How do I learn more? Where do I begin? 

Intuition – I listen to my inner voice all the time and the more I listen the clearer the messages become. I listen and I take action. Sometimes that inner voice simply dictates into this newsletter.  It is a very busy inner voice.  

Sacred Knowledge.  For me now that means finding the highest path I can walk and get on it.  It means looking for the guidance of the Divine Feminine as she makes herself known and adjusting as rapidly as I can to accommodate the new wisdom and direction.  

If you drew the High Priestess – Intuition and Wisdom how would you build on it?

Nested Meditations

Nested meditations first came to my attention in the June 2004 issue of Spirituality and Health magazine in an article called “Surprised by Grace” by Kevin Anderson, PhD.   

Writing a nested meditation is like opening a surprise package. Once you write the first line you are open to unexpected revelations on the succeeding lines.  You don’t have to stop with three lines either. Just keep going. Each line becomes a meditation. You can write more than three lines. You can use the same start and conclude it differently. You can change the punctuation, or a single word within a line. It is a flowing, living expression of self. 

How to Write a Nested Meditation

Sit for a moment and choose a phrase that comes to mind which you then write down on paper. It becomes your first line. 

Then you write the first line again and add a second line. 

The third time you write lines one and two and add a third line. 

It’s the third line that often comes out as a surprise for me. You can change the meaning of the words by changing the punctuation.

===HOW TO BE A STRONG CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF THE DIVERSE CIRCLE OF LIGHT BEINGS===

Turn the Page, Begin a New Chapter

We are not who we were yesterday and we are not who we will be tomorrow.  Our life story is constantly changing.  So however messed up our past was, we can always start now, in this moment, to make new choices and hold new expectations.  You are not your past, you are your potential.  Turn and look ahead.  Where do you want to go? Take a broad look and then go exploring until you find the path to your new future.  The past is over. It is an old story. How would you like your life to unfold next?  Perhaps remember the lessons but leave the old story behind. Today is a brand new day – the beginning of a new chapter.

===BROADEN YOUR HORIZON – EXPAND YOUR VIEW===

Know the Size of Your Sphere of Influence

Some things I can change.  Other things are not mine to do. Understand the edges of your responsibility and tend to what is yours to care for.  

There are global things that feel like I cannot control. I am not interacting with them on the physical plane but boy, am I busy on the inner plane – holding High Watch, sending energy, staying on the high road. Participate in change by using your thoughts and visualization to change everything.  Take specific action in your own sphere of influence and make it count. 

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

Outdated Information

Not long ago I made my living as a Content Development Coach helping people write the copy for their website. I loved it. I am good at it. However, it occurred to me only recently that it is possible that some of the marketing premises that I was basing my work on may no longer applicable. If I were still in business I know where I would turn, to Brian Clark for one and his innovative look at the digital nomad. But boy, is there a lot to learn in order to not only catch up but to keep up – let alone stay ahead. How has your business changed and what do you need to learn in order to adapt it to the unfolding new order of our rapidly changing world?

The Peaceable Kingdom

The Peaceable Kingdom is a painting by minister and painter Edward Hicks. The painting represents a prophecy in the book of Isaiah (11:6): “The wolf also shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the kid; and the calf and the young lion and the fatling together, and a little child shall lead them.

A Peaceable Kingdom seems a long way off right now.  What do we do?  How do we change?  What do we change?

Picturing a peaceable kingdom might be a good place to start.  What if everything we did was about compassion and caring? What if everything we experienced was about inclusiveness and generosity of spirit?  That’s exactly what we need to do – visualize it into being. 

It begins by monitoring your own actions.  

It’s hard for me not to be a bit angry at the people who have ideas and beliefs that are in such opposition to mine.  I’m very inclusive in my embracing of different forms of spiritual expression, but I’m having a much harder time with the people in this country who, to me, seem only to care about themselves, not about the higher good for all.  But see, that’s judgmental of me.  I’m not sure what to do about that, particularly when those who see the world differently than I do seem very intolerant of my viewpoint.  

The steps I can think to take are to keep focused on the concept of a Peaceable Kingdom – where everyone exists in harmony. Hard to imagine, isn’t it?  What would that feel like?  It’s not so much about being in agreement as it is about making room for each person to have their own opinion, their own response, without the need to find affirmation or agreement by bonding with others to force their beliefs onto others and make your way the only way.  

Peaceable Kingdom.  What would that look like?  What would that feel like?  How do we get there?

======THE UNFOLDING DIVINE FEMININE=== ===

What Makes You Feel Inferior?

A lot of the opposing positions that are moving into place are because if someone does not agree with your beliefs you begin to feel inferior.  And you turn that into defensive anger.  It is not easy to feel you are wrong. It is even harder to know you are wrong.  At least in America, there is a group of people who are negatively responding to being outnumbered in their beliefs, and are especially angered at definitely becoming a minority race.  And they are angrily fighting those feelings of being less-than.  Perhaps they don’t even know it.  

Being around differences is challenging.  If I can’t eat with chopsticks, for instance, I may feel less than a friend of mine who can when we are in a Chinese restaurant.  That’s a small thing and perhaps barely noticeable, but it is those small comparisons that can build into resentment or unexpressed misunderstanding.  

I know very little about other cultures.  It doesn’t make me feel less than, but I am not as sure of my choices among people of other cultures.  

Uncomfortable, less than, different from.  What happens if we change that to expressions of diversity and broad cultural knowledge and the fact that there is so much to learn from each other, particularly from other cultures.  

Where will you go exploring to expand your understanding of another way of being?  Are there people from other cultures in your workplace that you could get to know? What about a friend of a friend who can teach you about his or her culture?  I know so little sitting here in the mid-west.  The coasts are more diverse and I would have learned more if I had actively gone exploring with the set intentions of getting to understand the beauty and insights and gifts from other cultures.  

The human was not meant to be one particular race. We are born into diversity and we must learn to live within the joyous beauty of that diversity.  How will  you go exploring another culture today?

===CARA’S CORNER===

 Living the Divine Feminine

A friend recently pointed out that I had been living the Divine Feminine for a long time.  And I flashed back to 1977 when I moved from the Kansas City area to New York City and lived there for 13 years.  I was 45 when I arrived and 58 when I left. I thought I went because my only friend, who happened to be gay, was going to NYC to be with his partner.  To this day, I do not know how it happened but suddenly in a single moment, with no debate, I knew it was time for me to go there too.  I made a trip to NYC and found an apartment in a former department store with 18’ high ceilings and a loft. It was above a grocery store on the Upper West Side.

My friend was going to help drive the moving truck with our things and helped me load it but then he had to go ahead for the first leg of the journey. So I drove a big moving truck from Kansas City to St. Louis by myself to meet up with him.  When we got to NYC a few days later, we unloaded my things at my apartment, then his things at his partner’s apartment, and I was the one who drove the rental truck to lower Manhattan, turned it in and took the subway by myself back to the Upper West Side.  I walked alone to my apartment and there I was – a new resident of NYC. On my own.  It was the most important shift I made in my life for it was in NYC that I got my metaphysical education.  My friend moved back to KC in a few years but I stayed for 13 years, I learned a lot and I loved every minute of it. 

The Divine Feminine was strong within me even then and I am very grateful for her presence and her guidance and her great strength.  

How long has the Divine Feminine been nudging you and where will you allow her to lead you next?

Heeding the Call

The call was clear and direct.  I had no choice but to heed it. 

The call was clear and direct.  I had no choice but to heed it. The adventure was huge and it changed my life forever.

The call was clear and direct.  I had no choice but to heed it. The adventure was huge and it changed my life forever. I am grateful for both the call and the courage….!

Universe is always talking to us. Are you listening? Do you recognize it as your Inner Voice? What are you doing with the information it gives you? The Inner Voice is a few steps higher than intuition. It goes into greater detail. Intuition is a hunch, a feeling. Your Inner Voice is a statement – often a complete sentence. In my case, often a series of sentences. But then I’ve been listening to my inner voice for quite a while.

How to Self-Heal

How to Self-Heal

Living Our Deeper Song

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

We are responsible for helping ourselves.  It is our job to change our focus and do the work.  We do that by staying tuned to the vibration of wholeness.  How do we do that?  

We have to believe healing is possible.  We have to imagine ourselves as healed and restored.  We have to believe that we have the ability to self-heal. 

Imagine. We use our imagination to visualize and even experience ourselves as whole. Remember what it felt like to… Use your imagination to create a vision of what is possible, what can be restored and corrected. Rather than focusing on what ability is slipping away, remember what it felt like to be active and strong, whole and healthy.

Focus on the positive. When I feel a positive self-correction in my body posture, I focus on that, I acknowledge my body for that and my spirits are lifted by that success. 

Visualize. Visualization gives your cells permission to change, to repair, to strengthen.  Visualize the way it can be. Visualize the way this positive change will make your body self-correct. Visualize yourself as whole and perfect and complete.  

Trust. Your body knows how to self-correct, to heal itself.  Watch for the small improvements.  Watch for the subtle changes that make new ways of being possible.  

Each day I sit in meditation and draw energy up from the earth and down from my Soul Star.  I imagine those moving in a counter-clockwise spiral within my body that clears and releases and restores and replenishes.  I don’t have to know the details, I trust my body to do its job. I just have to keep the positive intentions coming its way.

Notice the subtle changes.  Let that encourage you to keep imagining wholeness, to keep expecting wholeness, to experience wholeness.  We are responsible for our own self-healing.  Do the work.  Reap the rewards.

Imagination, focus, visualization and trust are our guides to self-healing.

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I am whole, perfect and complete. 

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

  • Create a visualization process in which you see what is out of balance return to balance and wholeness.  What does that feel like, look like, be like?
  • Trust the self-healing process and notice the positive results.  Let that encourage you to keep self-healing. 

===INNER WORK===

Honor Your Natural Rhythm

We get so busy and caught up in life that we have no clue what our natural rhythm is – how we would prefer to organically move through life. My daughter has a very big job and works long hours and when I asked her what she did on a day off she said, “Nothing”, she just sat around all day. That was restorative for her because she does not have a job that will allow her to establish and work at her own rhythm. If you are caught up in a demanding situation, how do you find and establish your own rhythm?

In the 80s I worked as a temp at Estée Lauder’s headquarters in New York City.  Of course, Estée was a woman and all of her officers were women. There was one vice president who, every day at 4 o’clock, stopped everything for 20 minutes and had a Perrier and was not disturbed. She regrouped. She grounded. She balanced herself. She changed her rhythm. Where would you put a pause to regroup in your day? And what would you do in that time? You might meditate. You might go for a walk. You may look out the window and take deep breaths. Build some conscious pauses into your life and establish a way for you to re-center yourself. Honor your natural rhythm and stay balanced.

===SELF-HEALING===

Raise Your Vibrational Set Point

We have great control over where we focus our attention and intention. We can focus on what is not working. Or we can focus on what is positive and creative and nurturing. In an instant, we can change our focus and our life experience.

Nurture and raise your vibrational set point.  Focus your thoughts,  your expectations and actions around your life so your experience will always be expansive, inclusive, and rewarding.

You are your higher self, expressing itself through the human form. Know that.  Be that.  Experience that. Remind yourself of that as you move through your day.

Give gratitude to your Higher Self, your Cosmic Self. Give gratitude to your human self, to your heart. Commit to this unfolding and trust you cannot do this wrong. It is your birthright. 

===OUTER  WORK===

Monitor Your Response

This is an incredibly important time to monitor your responses. Do you respond out of fear? Do you respond out of anger?  Or do you focus on the higher positive energy? Somehow, someway, in this unfolding Divine Feminine, we have to build a new path. Each of us has to choose the direction and form of our own path. We must choose it with deepening awareness. And we must stay on as high a road as possible. Each day brings us a variety of circumstances that ask us to question our beliefs. To rethink our position. To re-visualize our future and make new choices. Making those choices, those changes, will get us there.

The old habitual responses are damaging. Many are based on outdated beliefs and no longer useful habits. They no longer have value. Once again we go back to ask what you believe you deserve and what you believe is possible. Thats what you will get and it should keep changing for the better. I can sit here and focus on all the ways and things that can go wrong. Or I can use my imagination and visualize how things could work in entirely new ways, in new structures, new formats, and new interactions. Everything needs to be examined and questioned. Then we must turn to focus on the unfolding possibilities that are being revealed to us in every moment. Are you getting the lessons? Are you changing your viewpoint? Are you free in your thinking to move into this new unfolding incredibly unusual Divine Feminine?

Foresight and Exploration

This is a time of change that is so dramatic that we need great foresight to see the unfolding possibilities. Then we must go exploring and see how we can shape the new ideas we find and utilize them and bring them into being. Be on the lookout for new ways to accomplish what resonates with you. Then explore and experiment and see if it is yours to do. Technical things come to mind, but there is huge philosophical change being called for in today’s changing world. Look ahead, go exploring and participate.

Have You Stopped Exploring?

It had been a very long time since I simply sat outside in nature but this week I did – on my new blue four-wheel walker with a seat.  I call her “Adventurer”. I took my double flute and sat on the patio and played to the world.  Now that I’ve managed to do that, I can do it again – often.  I’m not sure what the neighbors thought about the old lady and her flute but they will figure it out.  So now I have solved the physical challenges of sitting outside.  Yeah for adventuring.  What change do you need to make in your life that will open up new possibilities?  

Preconceptions and Expectation

Preconceptions are limiting beliefs.  They are made up out of our imagination, low expectation, and lack of information. And they can mess us up.  Move into a new situation, a new experience, a new relationship with inner stillness and observe and experience and evaluate as you go.  Let it unfold and choose in the moment. Be present.  Do not anticipate. Immerse yourself in the experience and evaluate from your Still Point. 

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

How Do You Shift Your Consciousness?

You can intentionally use the power of sound and vibration to shift your own state of consciousness.

Do you find yourself humming when you are happy?  You are using vibration to shift your mood. It is an organic response that helps shift your mood.

Stop what you are doing and notice your mood.  How is your day unfolding?  What has been your response?  You can change your mood by consciously altering your focus.  If I focus on a beautiful sunset it moves me and deepens my connection with the flow of the universe and all my human stuff fades away.  

Perhaps identify a doorway that you pass thorough during you day and each time you move through it, pause to relax your shoulders, take a deep breath, perhaps close your eyes for a moment, and move to your center.  Be fully present and move into your Still Point and simply be in the Center of your Being. 

Pause.  Breathe.  Make a conscious choice. 

===HOW TO BE A STRONG CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF THE DIVERSE CIRCLE OF LIGHT BEINGs===

Explore New Pathways

The first step in understanding where you fit in to this rapidly evolving planetary change in opportunity, is to understand yourself. Understand your gifts. But most of all, understand your calling.  You may have been on your life path for a long time, so you can see the pattern of the choices that you made. But this is a time to not just examine the past. Let’s stand tall right here at the entrance to the future and look around at what has become available. Look at what is now possible. Look at what calls you. Look at what gifts you can offer. Look what you need to learn in order to move forward. And go learn it.

I don’t have to get a job, I don’t have to earn money, but I very much want to remain relevant in our world today. I know many of my gifts, but where are they to be placed in service now, next? I can only ask that question of my inner self and wait patiently for the answer, or the insight, or the actual opportunity. I have given away some really good ideas recently because they’re not mine to do. But they need doing. And I seem to know people that could do them. 

It seems like our next steps are all about change. Changing what we think. Changing what we believe. Changing what we think is possible. Changing our expectations. So I am standing here and looking around at what is evolving in the world around me and noticing what needs doing. Then I am to consider the “doing” part and see if it is mine to do.  

I’m in the waiting stage right now. The nudges I’m getting seem to be ideas for other people which is actually very exciting. And that’s what I’m supposed to be doing right now – getting ideas and passing them on to the people who are ready to do them or whose path it fits.  So my job is not to do the ideas myself, but to allow ideas to fly through me to others for the doing. I can do that. 

Look at new fields of opportunity, look at new pathways leading to them, be very aware of your own gifts in a particular passion. Go exploring, make some choices, do your thing. 

===BROADEN YOUR HORIZON – EXPAND YOUR VIEW===

Path of Curiosity

This is the time for trying new things. Of course it’s more comfortable to walk the familiar path and do the familiar things but with the world changing so rapidly we will be left behind if we remain on the path that we have been on. I choose the path of curiosity. That means I explore new ideas. I may try them on for size. I may make a different version of them. But I am mostly looking at change –  how to change, ways to change and what to change, because the world is changing very rapidly and we have no idea what is going to look like yet. Our expectations will take us there. Our imagination will take us there. Take the path of curiosity. That’s what’s called for now in this unfolding world. 

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

World Work

It’s a tad tricky to be an 89 year old woman and still feel like you are contributing to life.  I felt much better when I realized that I am fulfilling an important role – making others think.

As I go exploring wherever my wonderful mind carries me, I write to figure out what I discover, how I might bring the concept into my life.  When I share that with you, I hope it prompts some new insights in you.  

Our impact can be very subtle and it can be very far-reaching.  This idea that I am still relevant by sharing my inner world explorations adds a depth of meaning to my life that is very welcome. 

How are you touching lives in the world?  What is your world work?

======THE UNFOLDING DIVINE FEMININE=== ===

The Divine Masculine Has to Change

I’ve been so busy wondering what the Divine Feminine will look like that I forgot that the Divine Masculine has a tremendous amount of change to make too. It involves a great deal of letting go of how things have been and expectations for how they can be.  It calls for moving into a place of honoring a new role, a new participation in the group involved in the formation of the new world. The masculine must be a partner, not a dominant force – a collaborator, not a boss. How flexible can Divine Masculine be? It’s going to be a little like pushing and shoving to find space for the feminine self expression as roles grow bigger and smaller. It is time for both male and female to let go of old beliefs and expectations and gradually evolved into what is to be.

 Watch the Signs?

Sometimes the Universe has to bop us on the head to get our attention.  A friend of mine got Co-Vid even though she had two shots and a booster, her boyfriend ended their relationship and she got so many personal clients that she got to cut back on her job!  It was like a helium balloon being freed to fly.  

What is holding you to the ground and how do you let it go?

As I watch my body continue to adjust and strengthen I must ask more of it, expect more of it.  A long time friend is ready to do her website and I get to write all the content for it.  It is wonderful and exciting and rewarding.  My hot-air balloon rose a little too. 

What is releasing in your life that leaves change for expansion?  Pay attention.  The Universe has exciting plans for you. 

===SING A DEEPER SONG ===

The Nudge

The change was subtle – a shift, a release, a new way of being. 

The change was subtle – a shift, a release, a new way of being. But the vista it opened up was huge – wide and welcoming. 

The change was subtle – a shift, a release, a new way of being. But the vista it opened up was huge – wide and welcoming.  First I will go exploring, then I will choose. A new path is unfolding for me.  I will find it deep within.

Find Your Own Voice

Find Your Own Voice

Living Our Deeper Song

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

This is a time of searching. This is a time of exploration. This is a time of questioning. Most of all, this is a time for choosing. It is time to find your own voice. It will be a new voice. It will be a different voice. It may be an unexpected voice. It will be a stronger voice. It will be based on the dramatically changing needs of the world today, the calling of your heart, and the most impactful and far-reaching use of your gifts. It may be a professional job. It may be a volunteer position. You may step out on your own. It may be a service within the confines of your group of friends. But your role will change. And much will change because of it.

Find your voice by noticing why people are drawn to you. What do they seek from you? What do they ask of you? How has that changed recently?  What is your new unfolding vision for yourself and for our planet? What do you believe is possible? How do you see your own role evolving?

Notice how your beliefs and expectations may have changed. Notice what new strengths you have developed in response to the emerging Divine Feminine and the violent reaction of the Divine Masculine who is lashing out in all directions. We must keep our center. We must keep our focus. And most of all we must continue to choose for the highest good for all. Or at the very least the highest good for the most people.

Let your new role unfold. Be patient. But be curious. Go exploring. Try on different versions of similar paths. Or try a whole new path all together. Find your voice. It is needed. Make it a strong voice placed deeply in service for the well-being of all.

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I step into the passionate calling of my new voice

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

  • Close your eyes and listen with  your heart.  What circumstance, situation on earth calls most to you?  
  • Give some thought to how you might serve that calling.  
  • Go exploring and find your new voice. 

===INNER WORK===

Being Light

How can you simply “be” light? How do you walk through your day as a Light Being? You do it with intention. You do it with an awareness of yourself as a spiritual being, cosmic consciousness itself. You are essence in a physical body. It is an essence of the highest vibration. That’s who we are. If you know yourself to be light, how does it change what you do and how you do it? 

I will move into a gathering with more awareness of the collective consciousness. I will give gratitude to my human form and for the many ways it allows me to participate in this life. I will give gratitude for my mind which is part of who I am, a favorite part granted, but just part of me. Since our consciousness creates how we express ourselves, I will listen to my consciousness. I will support her in staying on the high road and seeing the highest good for all, for being present and not just reacting, but for responding with compassionate inclusion. This inner work is constant. It’s about being continuously aware. Aware of what you are thinking. Aware of what you are doing. Be aware of the nudges of the universe and what you are to do with them. Move through your day with awareness and let Spirit guide you.

===SELF-HEALING===

The Power of Encouragement

I was practically cheering as I walked down the hall to get the mail. My body is doing such a fabulous job of self-healing and the results are encouraging and rewarding. Which do you notice – what is working or what is not?

Focus on the wins and build on them.  

===OUTER  WORRK===

Focused Action

As both men and women search to find our new role in the unfolding Sacred Feminine, we will have to try out a variety of roles. Some of them are roles that have not even been invented yet. So we have to keep listening to our inner voice and turn to the world and try to place  ourselves in new roles in unfamiliar and rapidly unfolding situations, finding unexpected but much-needed evolving places of service.

So many new ways to do things are being discovered daily that we need to stay alert to what is calling us, what is appropriate for us, what is next for us, what is possible. And then we go exploring to see where it leads us. How does our heart feel? What are our goals? What are our accomplishments? Are our choices accomplishing what we want to get done? Are we going in a positive direction?

Take an action, focus in on a situation, and adjust according to the response  you get.  Stay flexible.  Do the work. 

Find Your Natural Rhythm

We get so caught up in schedules and appointments and obligations that we forget to establish our own natural rhythm. When do you do your best work? Are you a morning person? A night person? Do you work in strong bursts and then change pace for a while? Or are you a strong, steady type? Those are all valid ways to work which may not be allowed in the way we structure our life and work. It is helpful to know your natural rhythm and find ways to honor it.

I’m super creative in the morning. So whatever writing or creating I’m going to do is worked on then. Sometimes I find study is a good use of my energy in the afternoon. Take time to notice your natural rhythms and see how you can adjust your day to accommodate them.

Bring Nature Into Your Life

I have been known to have twigs and leaves and acorns in an arrangement in my home.  My windows are lined with plants with colorful leaves. I have sun catchers in my window rather than shades so I can easily look out and be with the flow of nature.  How do you bring nature into your environment?

My meditation chair faces a window so I can be with nature during that time of contemplation. I play my flutes to the new day.  I play my flutes to the sunset.

My Qigong practice begins by bringing energy up from Gaia and down from Cosmic Consciousness.  I pause as I move through my day to look out at nature to see what she’s sharing with me, what mood she is in, what messages she has.  

How do you live with the unfolding cycles of nature?

What Are Your Options?

There is always more than one choice. There is always more than one way around a problem. What are your options? Do you simply stop and stare at a blockage in your life and not move forward without looking around for different ways to get around it? Over, above, around – all are approaches that offer different options. Is it really a problem or is it actually an incredible opportunity that asks you to rise to the occasion and give more of yourself than you have before? It is an opportunity to grow. There are always options. Do it. Don’t do it. Partially do it. Give it to someone else to do. Consider your options and expand your expectations before you move forward.

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

Cultivate Your Inner Voice

It takes time to cultivate the interpretation of your Inner Voice. Mine sometimes shouts at me. Other times it is a nudge so slight that if I’m not paying attention, I will miss it. Sometimes I reject what the inner voice says because it doesn’t feel like it’s the right time. But usually, it is. My Inner Voice has so many good ideas that it often makes me stop what I am doing and go act on the idea. 

Learn to trust your inner voice. Learn to ask your inner voice for guidance. And listen closely to the very soft nudges it brings to you throughout the day. 

===HOW TO BE A STRONG CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF THE DIVERSE CIRCLE OF LIGHT BEINGS===

Continue Working On Your Own Evolution

We are being called to set aside who we are, what we know, and where we think we’re going because our world is dramatically changing. It clears out the old and births the new. We have to stay flexible. We have to evolve. We have to chart a new path. We have to explore and make new choices. This is a time of major change.

The question I’m asking myself a lot is what I am to do now? What is needed from me now? Where will I have the most impact?  How can I be the most useful?

What’s coming up for me is based on my natural curiosity about the unfolding feminine and the form she is evolving into. 

I also intend to go with the flow. I will not plan so far ahead that I cannot make an instant course correction when a new insight shows up or a new opportunity comes to me. I will not lock myself into a long-term plan for now, I think there’s too much change going on.

You can’t rush change. You can’t rush recognition of new possibilities. But you can teach yourself to be aware and observant and thoughtful. As this unfolding continues, you will find criteria to use as a measuring stick. You will also find things that are so exciting, it will blow your mind because you never thought that would be possible in your lifetime. The idea that you would be able to do it opens realms of new possibilities. Let your imagination soar.  Go exploring.  Make new choice.  Create new expectations for what is possible.

I’m not sure what staying flexible does for year-long plans or objectives or goals like we used to do. I think we might have to take it project by project. Perhaps even moment by moment. A project could be completed in any length of time that will make it usable and we will find out what change that leads to, what it evolves into. Continue work on your own evolution and enjoy the unfolding opportunities that present themselves. 

Reach Out

 I cherish my online friends.  I talk to them at regular intervals and we support each other on our respective journeys. Each friend seems to address a different area of interest of mine and it is very supportive to be able to have regular conversations with people who are walking a similar path and exploring in a similar direction at a similar level. We do not share all parts of our paths, but we support each other on the part of the path we share. 

Perhaps you make the first connection. Reach out and make arrangements to have a conversation on Zoom with someone you would like to know better. Or begin with an email exchange. The more specialized your area of interest, the trickier it is to find someone interested at the same level you are. The more advanced you get, the more you need advanced people in that area to share your journey with. Reach out. Arrange a monthly call and see how you can support each other.

How will you begin to build your far-reaching online community of friends?

===BROADEN YOUR HORIZON – EXPAND YOUR VIEW===

Expectation

As I watch the challenges in the US, I have a choice – I can worry or I can raise my expectation of what is possible. I’m going to do the latter. So even though the answer, the next move, the solutions are not yet obvious, I’m going to trust that the solution for the highest good for all will emerge and prevail. What do you expect is possible? Raise your expectations and you will invite in higher energy.

Understand Your Process

How do you learn?  What process do you go through to make your observations?  What are the criteria for your choices? 

I’m an over-view person.  I see the potential and its variations very rapidly.  I do not remember detail very readily.

I have a friend who remembers detail forever.  She weaves it into lovely patterns of understanding.  Both of those learning styles are gifts. 

Give some thought to how you learn, how you make choices, how you choose your action steps.  Once you understand your pattern you can create a methodology to evolve an effective deepening process for your decisions. 

However you make decisions is perfect for  you but understand how  you work and figure out how to utilize those preferences. 

Change and Possibilities

Because change is happening so rapidly around us, we have to keep looking for the new possibilities that are emerging. They may be in a form that we recognize. They may not. They may be ours to do. They may not. I think we are entering a stage where we need to question everything we do because there’s going to be an alternative way to do it. Solar panels came to mind. 3-D printing of houses come to mind. Elimination of plastic come to mind. These are huge changes in how we used to do things. Keep learning. Pay attention to what is new and available. And keep questioning your choices so that you can keep building and finding new ways to do everything and anything.

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

Creator Economy

Brian Clark says this is a creator economy.  There are so many platforms that give us access to people all over the world that our business goals can and need to be global.  This includes coating, teaching, designing, marketing, technical development, and reaching a worldwide audience.   Brian says, “It’s an amazing time to be a creative entrepreneur and build your personal enterprise.”

Look imaginatively at the unfolding needs that you can now identify in the world and find innovative ways to fill that need.  This is a period of creativity and originality. Enjoy. 

======THE UNFOLDING DIVINE FEMININE=== ===

Establishing New Feminine Qualities

This has been such a male-dominated world that there are no Divine Feminine examples for us to copy. We only have the masculine view of the world. But that is changing.  So what do you see as the new, unfolding feminine qualities? I see independence. The Divine Feminine walks her own path in her own way in her own time. She has confidence and she is strong and she is very, very, very attuned to the guidance of her inner voice. She is so strong that she does not need support. She may choose to partner with someone in order to increase that strength or expand the possibilities. But she really prefers to walk alone. Independent. Wise. Inquisitive. Smart. Feminine is all of those. If you don’t believe that, you are still listening to the male-dominated world. And you have some choices to make. There are probably some beliefs to change. Forget what is out there right now like unequal work opportunities and unequal pay. And especially look out for the unequal expectations – by others and by ourselves. Each of us, both male and female are evolving into this new feminine. Men and women both have to change their beliefs in what is possible for women to do. 

How do we do that? We notice what calls us and we go exploring and keep a lookout for any of those restrictive feminine role clichés that are bound to show up. 

There are many ways to approach a situation. If I wanted to help fight fires but am  a small sized woman, not a big strong man, I have to perhaps create a role for myself in that profession. I may be the pilot to spot the new fire path and report back. I may create a new tool for fighting fires. I may develop a new conservation technique that prevents forest fires or reseeds forests. There are many ways to participate in helping a cause. We have to learn to think beyond anything we’ve imagined before because the opportunities are different and the tools are different. Be clever. Be creative. Be innovative. Create your own version of being in the Divine Feminine in this unfolding time.

=== DEEPER SONG  PHILOSOPHIES ===

Look Within

My strongest guiding philosophy is to keep looking within. I love my inner voice. I love that the more I listen the louder she speaks. And when I listen, I discover new opportunities, new paths, new possibilities. Are you listening to your inner voice? She is showing you the way.

===INTENTION BLESSING===

May we hear and heed the call of the Divine Feminine. 

May we expand our hearts and our expectations.

May we walk the Path of Light with a sure foot. 

May we keep our gaze on the summit.

May we take this journey with a full heart. 

I entwine my light with yours and we move forward to guide the way.

===CARA’S CORNER===

Pass It Forward

I have been collecting crystals for 50 years.  This week I passed along my crystal jewelry collection, with the exception of one labradorite necklace I wear, to my daughter, Cathy.  I was surprised to find that I felt relief the next day. I had made some of the jewelry in a jewelry-making class in New York City and I got to point those out to her.  One rutilated quartz necklace had been shouting at me for days that she wanted to go be with Cathy now.  It’s interesting how rocks can talk, can make their wishes and their needs and their gifts known.  We just have to listen.  

What do you need to pass forward?  What do you need to let go?  I still have a huge number of crystals but I found a group who were ready to move on to help Cathy deepen her spiritual practice.  

There is a time for everything. Sometimes that time is to stay and sometimes it is time to let go. 

What do you need to pass forward?

===SING A DEEPER SONG ===

Letting Go

I let go.  It was time. 

I let go.  It was time. What I released was needed elsewhere. And it made room for me to bring in the new. Or expand what I kept. 

I let go.  It was time. What I released was needed elsewhere. And it made room for me to bring in the new. Or expand what I kept. Now there is room to grow.

Weaving Our New Home

January 6, 2022 By Cara Lumen

Weaving Our New Home

Living Our Deeper Song

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

We are going to create our new world from within ourselves – with our beliefs and our expectations. We’re going to create each new strand with our choices. That means we must create internal change before weaving our new home. We are weaving a new way to exist and this must all come from the changes we make within ourselves, from the inner work we do, from the vision we create, from the work we do to raise the vibration and consciousness of wholeness. Our work is for the whole and especially for the Circle of Light Beings who are charged with changing the vibrational harmony on our planet.

We much choose to create new possibilities, new potential. We are to acknowledge where we have been, be flexible about where we are headed, and creative about how we can get there. That takes a lot of fortitude, diligence, and courage. We can do that. 

Begin by strengthening your spiritual practice – your meditation time, your contemplation time, and your visioning time. Deepen your relationship with your Inner Self and learn its language. 

Listening is important. It is our imagination that makes things happen. Imagination creates reality. And with the emerging of the Divine Feminine, we are being offered a new way to imagine our existence, our interaction, our world into existence.  Our potential is already different. The possibilities are rapidly changing and unfolding. The expectations are evolving. All because the Divine Feminine is stepping forward to say, “Let’s do it a different way.” And we have to figure out what this “way” is.

How do we do that? We question everything. We question our beliefs. We question our expectations. And we stay alert and receptive to all the new ways of being that are possible and unfolding in our experience today. Strand by strand, moment by moment, we are weaving our new reality. We must pay attention. Choose well. Choose wisely. We are creating our new and beautiful “next.”

DEEPER SONG AFFIRMATION

I am deeply conscious of my choices and my expectation and stay focused on the Unfolding Potential.

DEEPER SONG PROCESS 

  • Put aside all your expectation for yourself in the coming year. 
  • Choose one thing that is the most important to manifest.  The one thing that will affect all else you do.  It can be a belief, an expectation, or a specific action. 
  • Begin to visualize and manifest that in the form that will move you forward into the new word of the Divine Feminine. 

===INNER WORK===

Vision is the World Beyond Sight

Vision expands and unites our ideas in scope and power.  Vision has the ability to become anything.  It is a door-opener to possibilities never before imagined.   Use your vision to see your new world.  Use what shows up as clues to what is unfolding. Always look beyond the obvious.  Use what you discover as hints, not the core message. Listen with your inner knowing and let your vision lead you into your unique unfolding.

Keep Space Open For The New

If we fill our lives too full, we will not have time to explore the unexpected gifts and opportunities the Universe provides.  Leave space in your life for new life experiences and subsequent choices. 

Offer Gratitude to 2021

I was so busy looking at what might be coming in 2022 I almost forgot to thank 2021 for its gifts. I’m not sure that a body in moving through rather dramatic healing is a gift but that’s a lot of what I got. But I also got deepening friendships, continued encouragement, and expanded insights. 

I learned to move effectively and use biofields to heal my body. There continue to be major lessons there. I have deepened relationships which are very important to me. I have shifted to a higher level on my path two or three times in this past year. I have learned the signs of feeling a cycle coming to an end, and how to wait patiently for the beginning of the new cycles to let themselves be known. I am more patient with the unfolding process of my life.

I can build on that. I can build on increasing my awareness of the ongoing cycles. I can increase my patience at letting them unfold and make themselves known.

Another huge gift from 2021 is the recognition that the Divine Feminine is unfolding and we are to help her establish herself even though we have no idea what form she’s going to take, what lessons she’s going to bring, and what new ways of being she’s going to suggest. What are the lessons you learned in 2021 and how are you bringing them forward into 2022?

Spiritual Fire

Let your inner spiritual fire light your way.  Keep it showing you new paths to explore, new dimensions to immerse yourself in, new ways of being in the world.  Cultivate your Spiritual Fire with meditation and intentions and whatever form  your spiritual practice takes.  Build that fire and hold your light high so it can show you the way.  We are Light Beings holding High Watch for the world. Raise your light so all can see. Light the path for those who follow.

===SELF-HEALING===

I Am Self-Healing

This has not been a fun process. I picked up a cane in June and started using a walker in September. Technically I might say that my tilted pelvis righted itself and my body has been realigning itself ever since. What I do know is that each day now I am standing up straighter and feeling the alignment continue in my body. Change can hurt. 

So what am I doing to make this self-correction take place? I am working with bitfield energy. 

One of the forms is acupressure. Three times a day I massage my body – particularly the places that hurt to encourage the flow of energy through them and to them. The biofield energy work is taking several forms, reiki, Qigong, breathing visualization, vibration, intention. I have identified physical stretches that will strengthen my changing body structure.  The point is – I’m helping it happen! I’m doing the work. My body is responding and giving me results.  

I have several outer things that may be contributing – PiMag Waterfall® the KenkoTherm Cocoon , the Kenko Naturest® Custom Pillow and Kenko PowerSleep Mask  One main meal is Garden of Life Raw Organic meal Replacement Powder in almond milk. I am supporting my body from many directions and it seems to be responding.  

Talk to your body.  See what it needs.  Then find ways to give it the support to rebalance and realign and grow stronger.  

Hurrah for self-healing….

How Do You See Yourself?

I can see myself as a crickety old woman with a walker or I can see myself as a fascinating woman with a vibrant, inquisitive mind.  I can see myself as living alone in a senior center in Kansas or I can see myself with deepening friendships all over the world with whom I communicate regularly via Zoom as we support each other on our respective paths. 

Are you aware of how far-reaching you are?  Are you aware how far your unique ripple extends and what shores it touches?  

Look beyond the obvious circle of lives you touch and know that what you say and think and do and believe is rippling out to touch lives all over the world.  Be thoughtful. Be aware. See yourself as the light being you are. 

===OUTER  WORK==

Plant a Garden of “Surprise Me”!

I’ve been drawing lots of scenarios in an Experimental Garden and I was going over the ideas for the zillionth time when I decide to simply plant the whole garden with “Surprise Me”!!!! That sure eliminated a lot of thinking and planning and evaluating.  If I grow a whole garden of
“Surprise Me” I don’t have to plan ahead, I just get to see what comes up and work with it. What an interesting way to live.  Take each day as it comes and respond from your Inner Self, your Cosmic Awareness and trust your Inner Voice to guide you to your necessary “next.”  That sure takes the burden off of planning ahead.  Just respond in the moment and trust your choice to bring you the necessary “next.”

For instance, I seem to have organically stopped producing podcasts for the moment. I have several recorded that simply need editing, but I seem to have turned to share my explorations and discoveries in this newsletter.  It is better to stay fluid in your plans when there is so much change going on that may require a different approach, different thinking, and even new ways of communicating.  So we must stay in the moment and let our Surprise Garden – well surprise us!

Change Your Perception

Look at things in a whole new light, from a whole new perspective.  It’s like shifting to experience something that looks like a confrontation to experience it as an opportunity.  We can make that shift in a second.  The next time you feel you are in a negative situation, pause to reframe it.  What is the opportunity to grow here?  What is the lesson I might learn?  How will this change my options?  Pause when you hit a snag, see how you can change your perception, and see where that leads you.

Keep Exploring

We have an unfolding future here.  The Divine Feminine is opening her arms to receive us and we are to step in and accept her blessings and support. What does she need from us?  What does she need from you? From me?  We are entering a period of broad exploration and unfolding change. That means we are to stay flexible and alert and willing to change.  Put on your explorer’s cap as the Divine Feminine makes herself known.  Explore, sample, choose, experiment, move forward.  We are to broaden our willingness to explore and make good use of what we discover. 

Self Responsibility

I have one more physical therapy appointment and then I’m on my own. I have to be responsible for establishing a pattern of movement that continues to strengthen and straighten my body. My physical therapist has given me lots of ideas. I can go online and find even more ideas. But I have to do the work.  I have to choose a movement. I have to put it in my life on a regular and steady basis. I have to take action. And I have to monitor how it works and adjust it and strengthen my choices until I get the results that I want. It’s all on me.

What objective do you have? And how will you make it happen?

===DEEPEN YOUR SPIRITUAL PRACTICE===

Be With What Is

Be with what is.  That doesn’t mean you won’t work to change it, it simply means you observe what you have created, what you have drawn to you, and consider your options. You may understand what got you where you are and decide to change it. You may decide you will work with what you have.  You may decide to release your role in it.  What shows up in your life is the result of choices you’ve made, thoughts you had, and your expectations of what is possible. Self-correcting things begins within.

What Makes You Content?

Contentment is peaceful.  It is accepting.  It is working with what is. There is action in contentment but it comes from an inner awareness and acceptance of the gradual unfolding of life and circumstances.  Be content in a moment.  Be content with a completed task.  Be content with the sound of rain on the window.  Look for moments of contentment in your day and absorb and embrace them. 

Strengthen Your Foundation

A foundation must be aligned.  It must be on solid ground. It must be taken care of – maintained. 

My body is giving me this lesson. A year ago I had a tilted pelvis on the right side. I have no idea when it happened or how. A year ago the pelvis organically untilted and I have spent the past year feeling my body realign herself based on the proper placement of the foundation. It has not been comfortable.

Has your foundation tilted? Is the ground upon which you built your foundation still solid or has some weakness seeped into it to take away its solidarity? How do you even know if your foundation is off kilter? What are you doing about it if it is?

I have used energy to help my body self correct – focused energy, vibrational energy, intuition, intention, awareness. So how do we shore up a foundation that has gotten off-kilter?

We don’t do it with our mind because that’s too limiting. We do it with the energy of wholeness. And intention. I’m straightening the foundation of my body with both intention and physical action. I have used acupressure and vibrational healing and focused intention. It is working. I’m healing and balancing and restoring and strengthening the foundation of my life, mostly I examine and adjust and strengthen my spiritual beliefs. For instance, I don’t think we need to try to raise our vibration, I think we just need to recognize that we already are the highest cosmic vibration. I believe in the unfolding and revealing of our next as an organic process that is unfolding, gradual, and ongoing. Don’t make a new choice without questioning what you need to let go that might be in opposition to it, might keep it from flourishing. If I have a belief about the aging process being one of deterioration, it is a bit of a challenge for me to envision my body getting stronger and straighter. But when I envision an easy and active restoration, my body does grow stronger.

Begin with your foundation. Examine your beliefs and your expectations of what is possible with stronger images and stronger expectations. Strengthen your foundation from within your inner vision.

===HOW TO BE A STRONG CONTRIBUTING MEMBER OF THE DIVERSE CIRCLE OF LIGHT BEINGs===

Vitality

I drew the oracle card “Vitality and Joy” on the first of the year and passed to give thought to what that means to me and my choices. Vital. I want to be vital. I want to be relevant. I want to make a difference. All of these take vitality. All of these take energy, vibrancy, liveliness. How vibrant is your day? How joyous is your life? Are you filling your thoughts with vibrant expectations? How can you add the power of vitality to your life?

===BROADEN YOUR HORIZON – EXPAND YOUR VIEW===

Our Unfolding Adventure

Our role in this evolving unfolding adventure is also evolving and unfolding. We are light-bearers. We are to walk the earth in the highest state of inclusive awareness that we can muster. Just holding that consciousness affects others. There may not be a specific physical action you are to take. But there is a specific spiritual focus you are to continue to expand as you become aware that you already are the highest vibration possible. And you must live with that awareness. We’re not just Light Bearers, we are way-showers – holding inclusiveness in our hearts. Being compassionate in all we think and say and do. How do you see your own role as a Light Bearer? What lives are you touching? How are you touching them? Do you need to do more? What will that be?

2022 – Gestation and Release

According to astrology, 2022 is a year of gestation and release. That means ideas take time to evolve. It will be a time of experimentation, trying things on for size and potential, so to speak.

2022 is a time for broad reorganization and expanded liberation. That means we have to really pay attention to the choices that we are or are not making. It is a time to let go of an outdated, outgrown way of being and go exploring to establish and shape the unfolding feminine into our lives and choices.

2022 is time to investigate our assumptions, rebuild the foundations of our lives and review and perhaps rechoose our social contracts. 

You don’t know what you don’t know. You don’t see what you don’t see. We have to examine our assumptions and beliefs because they are no longer true. The world is changing and we must change with it. Learn to look at things from a new perspective. Put yourself in the other person’s place. What beliefs are you holding onto that you simply absorbed from your family that are not really beliefs that you want to establish in your life? Question everything.

This is a period of rebirth. We have to give it time to evolve. Be patient. Be aware. Be very willing to change. 2022 is a period of gestation and release. What are you birthing?

===OUR EVOLVING FUTURE===

What Do You Want to Learn Next?

I love to learn so every once in a while, I take so many classes that I really feel full up. I would like not to do that in the coming year. So I’m giving a little thought to what I actually do want to learn. I will always take the free Shift Network summits on Shamanism Qigong and Self-healing. But I don’t need any more classes in any of those. What I am doing is biofield healing, which is basically energetic healing. As I work with acupressure, Qigong, intention, breathing, meditation and visioning,  I’m getting results in my body which is very heartening for an old person. I guess I really don’t have to know how this works, although that would be interesting to learn more about. I will stay open to learning new ways to heal in the biofields.

Do you ever get excited about too many things so that you feel overwhelmed and can barely choose? I have a tendency to do that. So I’m suggesting we pause here at the beginning of this new year and examine what we may now know enough about, and give some thought to what we might want to learn more about, and still leave room for the unexpected “Oh my, I have to learn how to do this because it looks like fun.” Be discerning. Be selective. Keep learning with calls to you and put aside whatever does not.

Let Your World Unfold from Peace and Compassion

For all this striving to figure out my next, I drew an oracle card that said Peace and Compassion.  I am to strengthen my spiritual practice to gain more inner peace and let my outer work grow out of my deepening compassion.

Create a New Dream

The present creates the future. Create a new dream for the earth. What do you need to change in the here and now that will change the future? What are you focusing on?  Keep it positive.  What do you believe is possible?  Raise your sights and let the yet-to-be-known unfold and reveal itself.

If you focus on the negative, you give it great power. That doesn’t mean you have to ignore its presence, you just have to focus on the alternative to the negative. What is possible? What would you prefer? Envision that. Envision a world of peaceful cohabitation with great loving care for our planet earth and for each other. Create a vision of wholeness. Inclusion. Where is your focus? What is your expectation?  Imagine a new world into being. Create a new dream and step into it.

===THE UNFOLDING DIVINE FEMININE=== 

The Vision You Hold For Yourself

Growing up I did not realize how deeply ingrained were the social expectations for women. Get married, raise kids or be an old maid. No college. No career. It’s interesting how a collective expectation or lack of expectation can color your choices. Young women of today have a wide range of careers, opportunities, and choices.  Not all men see those same opportunities for women, but women can see them. We know we are smart. We know we can lead corporations. We know we can invent things. We just get to go do it.

I’ve been thinking about the composers of symphonies lately – how there seem to be no women who wrote classical music. I’m sure there were women that could or can and maybe do, but the great masters are all men.  Women have to learn to see new possibilities for themselves. 

The other question I had about classical composers is how did they hear their work? One does not just have an orchestra handy to practice with, to try out their ideas and harmonies. They made their whole composition up in their head.  What a lesson that is! Make up your life in your head. An artist sees a picture in her mind before she paints it.  A writer feels the story unfolding within before she writes it. 

I’m not sure where I would start making up my life as a young woman of today. I would want to look closely at my passion and my gifts. I would identify how I would like to be in service, then I would look to see how I might translate that into supporting myself as a living. 

I love to write, and I particularly love the freedom I have now to write whatever I want to, but I also did my fair share of writing television and radio commercials and black-and-white copy for advertising agencies and web content for clients in order to earn my way.

What would you teach the young woman of today about her future? She does not need to have children unless she wants to. She does not need a partner although she could have one. They don’t have to live a lifetime together and they could. The profession that may ultimately call her may not even have been invented yet. So here are young women standing at the entrance of their future with no clear paths or expectations. What freedom! What a challenge! What an opportunity!!!!

Most of my friends are in the vicinity of retirement which means they have a whole other 30 years to do something fun or great or meaningful. It’s a bit like starting over but with a bigger arsenal of skills and experience. Look at your gifts, look at your passion, and look at the possibilities. Then go exploring. 30 years is a long time for a new adventure. What is the vision you hold for your
“next”?

=== DEEEP SONG  PHILOSOPHIES ===

What If You Were Persecuted? 

Years ago I wrote a post titled “What If You Were Persecuted.”  In response to gay rights, Bush had just said that all marriages should be between a Christian man and woman.  I hadn’t been Christian for a long time by then and I was acutely aware of limitations being set on me by someone who did not know me at all.  I didn’t want to get married again, but I did not like the limitation of my spirituality. What if someone tried to stop me from traveling my chosen spiritual path?
I experienced a sense of persecution for the first time in my life and I wrote about it.  

Two things happened with that article – it was investigated by Army Intelligence and it was republished in a lesbian publication.  Different takes on the idea of persecution – danger to the country, danger to personal freedom. 

The word “persecution” means oppression, victimization, tyranny.

Every time we take away a freedom, a right, it is a form of persecution. It is denying others the freedoms we so greatly cherish. Look closely at your own beliefs and prejudices about what others have the right to do. Women’s freedom of choice over their bodies is high on my list. The right to vote is paramount in its importance. When we deny others their freedom twice, freedom of choice and their right to be heard, we are killing off the soul of humanity. We are denying the greater whole its presence. Do not participate in taking away the rights of others. Make all choices for the highest good and well-being of all concerned.

===INTENTION BLESSING===

May we hear and heed the call of the Divine Feminine. 

May we expand our hearts and our expectations.

May we walk the Path of Light with a sure foot. 

May we keep our gaze on the summit.

May we take this journey with a full heart. 

I entwine my light with yours and we move forward to guide the way.

===CARA’S CORNER===

I had a bit of a giggle when I thought of this.  I live in a Senior Center in the Midwest.  With the exception of the Social Services Director who has become a friend, I have nothing in common with anyone here so I do not go to any events.  The giggle came when I imagined sitting at a table of seniors where someone asked me what was going on in my life and my answer would be: “I’m doing self-healing using the bitfields and exploring the unfolding role of the Divine Feminine on our planet.” Pretty sure I would not start up any conversations or make any new friends.

Seek out like-minded friends who stimulate your thinking and give yourselves room to open up new vistas of exploration. 

Zoom is an awesome way to deepen international friendships.  Reach out and connect with more like-minded people this year. You deserve stimulating friendships.
