Are You a Transcendent Leader?

Are You a Transcendent Leader?

An Inner Word Exploration

“Transcendent leader” is a new phrase for me, and I wondered if I was one.  I want to be.  But what does that look like? Feel like?  Act like?

Transcendent means spiritual, metaphysical, above the range of normal or physical human experience. 

Leader – well, to me that means a guide, way-shower, path-finder.  

We can do that. 

If we are Transcendent Leaders, it means we are aware of the oneness of everything – of our interconnection with All That Is. It means we are aware of everything as vibration – merged, interactive, one vibration.  It means we have an ever-deepening, ever-evolving spiritual practice that permeates and influences all we do. 

There is no separation in transcendent leadership.  We are all one.

What is my job as a Transcendent Leader?

To me, it means to continue to raise my vibration so that it, in turn, raises the vibration of whatever and whomever it comes in contact with.  

I do that in my spiritual practice, my shamanic journey work, my vibration healing work, my thoughts and beliefs, and actions. My choices.

Not a leader – a way-shower

A way-shower says, “Here’s one way if it calls to you.  Hers’s a path I explored that really resonated that I’d like to share with you.  I learned this way to deepen my spiritual practice, or raise my vibration or….” 

You simply become a living example of the energy you cultivate and embrace.  Others see it, experience it and adapt it or not to their own way of being. 

In my case, I write to figure it all out and share what I discover with others. They in turn resonate or not.  Act of not.  I have simply said, “Here’s one way.”

A Transcendent Leader walks beside others

A Transcendent Leader is always conscious of his or her vibration and its impact  We are also aware when someone comes alongside to walk a similar path beside us.  Then we engage in an exchange of energy.  We listen. We share.  We encourage.  And at some point we part ways.  That’s simply the nature of walking your own path.  For it is the purpose of each of us to cultivate and walk our own unique path.

How can I be a better Transcendent Leader?

First, you have to realize that you are a Transcendent Leader.  Whatever you are doing, however you are doing it, you are also impacting others.  Perhaps by guiding them, perhaps by encouraging them, perhaps simply by showing them by example.  

The cornerstone of  being a Transcendent Leader is to know that you are one.  And accept that responsibility and choose and act accordingly.  

Well, fellow Transcendent Leader,  what shall we do to transform the world today?

How to Transform Energy Before You Release It

How to Transform Energy Before You Release It

Adventures in the Unseen World

Energy cannot be destroyed, it can only be repurposed.  So it makes great sense that before you release energy that is blocking you, you must take steps to convert it into a form of energy that will be useful elsewhere. What?! How?

Begin from where you are

I only have one example to share from my own life so far since this is a relatively new idea for me.  I was doing a ceremony to release a blockage, which in my case was my reluctance to exercise (I’m 87 and was never a fan of exercise when I was younger).  Along with this was a reluctance to take better care of my home.  Was that laziness? Or that it’s a bit harder?  Or simply that I don’t care? How can I release what I cannot identify as the cause of the problem?

Actually, I don’t have to know.  I can  use the phrase “I release what no longer serves me.”  Or “I relate what is keeping me from moving forward.”

However, that doesn’t address the idea of transforming the energy into something useful before sending it on its way. 

Change the energy into a positive form before you release it!

Your Home Within

An Inner World Exploration

The more you go exploring in the Unseen World, the trickier it is to find words to describe it.  All-That-Is, the Emptiness That Holds Everything.  Kahlil Gibran says,  “Live in the Nowhere that you came from even though you have an address here.”  

So what is nowhere like?  How do I relate to the unseen world?  What does it feel like to be part of the Web of Life or the Cosmic Ocean?  

These are all metaphors for things that we cannot describe from our body suits.  We sense this energy.  We know there is something a great deal larger than we are in our body suits.  And we also know that we are part of it.  In fact, we are it. 

So how do we feel that, embrace that, understand that?

The Transformative Sphere

By 1 Comment

The Transformative Sphere
An Inner World Exploration

I was on a shamanic journey. My guide and I were floating on our backs in an iridescent void of white light. 

I turned to my guide: 

“I would like to release my fear about the current world chaos.”

My guide holds out his hand. I take a large red fiery ball of energy from my body and hand it to him. He holds it in love and it turns pink, then it becomes the green light of healing, then it turns to the power of indigo light.   

He gives it back to me and I accept it. 

I feel better. 

My guide says: “You can do that too. See yourself remove the energy you do not want from your body, hold it in your hands and send light to it until it changes color.” 

I had gone on this shamanic journey looking for actions I could take in my body suit life that would allow me to help the planet and help me. 

“I’m carrying a huge amount of fear and apprehension over the way the world is going.  Can you help me shift that?”, I say to my guide.

We were both lying on our backs.  And he said, “Remove the energy of fear from your body.” I do and hold in my hands a very red ball of anger and fear.  

“Now,” my guide said, “Release the anger. Release the fear.” 

I do.  I see it floating away, I see the sphere I am holding cool and change coolers – from red to orange, from orange to blue, from blue to green – the color of the heart. I felt calmer and more centered. 

“You can put it back now – your love of the planet,” my guide suggested.

I held the glowing globe in my hand and watched it turn into the same white iridescent color of the void that surrounds me.  Then I gently place the glowing sphere back into my body suit.

“You can do this any time,” says my guide.  “Bring out what troubles you and focus light on it until it changes colors.”  

The Transformative Sphere

I call this the Transformative Sphere. You can do it any time. First, become aware of an un-ease.  You don’t even have to define it, you just need to be aware that something within you needs to be balanced. Set an intention to place both the known and unknown that needs releasing into the Transformative Sphere.  See  yourself energetically remove it from your body and work with the colors of the rainbow, in whatever order or form they show up, until the sphere you’re holding, which is an unbalanced section of your body suit vibration, become iridescent, or translucent or clear or whatever color lets you understand that what is no longer needed or wanted has been released. 

Then metaphorically return the transformed sphere to your body suit.  

Repeat as needed. 

Deeper Song Affirmation

I have the ability to transform any negativity through my intentions.  

Deeper Song Process

  • Look at a situation that bothers you.  It may be a really deep undefined fear, or it may be something you would simply like to shift in your life.
  • Place yourself in a quiet atmosphere, sitting or lying down. In your mind, gather up both the known and unknown energies that do not serve you. See it as a transformative sphere.
  • Remove that sphere that holds what you no longer want or need – known or unknown – from your body. 
  • Notice what color it is.  Perhaps it takes a different shape. 
  • As you hold the sphere of vibration, allow it to change. Perhaps it takes a shape that offers you a metaphoric message. Allow it to change colors.  Allow yourself to envision whatever form of releasing that shows up – evaporating, turning away, dissolving, fading away. Watch the sphere you are holding gradually change colors. 
  • Keep working with it until it becomes a color or shape that feels comforting to you – a color and shape that you are willing to accept back into your body. 
  • Play the newly attuned transformed sphere back in your body and notice how it affects your body suit life.
  • Repeat as needed and desired.

How Vibration Heals

How Vibration Heals

An Inner-World Exploration

Before there was light there was sound. In the beginning, was the word.  Our core existence is vibration. Our bodies are simply denser versions of vibration. 

It makes sense that the vibration of sound can be used to alter and support our physical experience.

Although we are one vibration, we are also individual and unique in our expression of that vibration. And we are responsible for how our vibration shows up. What we say and do and think will affect how our vibration expresses itself. 

What does your vibration draw to you?
