Transmutation News – February 2019

In January I had the wonderful opportunity to do the New Year’s show on Renee Baribeau’s Winter Solstice Summit. The talk and the practice I led was very well received. I thought you might enjoy watching my presentation. You can click on:

The last few years have been filled with so much change and sculpting away of old parts of my personality that no longer reflect who I am now. So many of us are experiencing the death of what is familiar, what we know, and what we can count on.

This leads us back into the language of Nature and the cycles of death and rebirth.

My life, even before I started practicing shamanism, was filled with a deep desire to make people feel loved and worthy to be here. I have always and still feel so much unconditional love for people and of course for all of life. At the same time, I find myself doing the paradoxical dance of” being” love while my ego/personality continues to slip into separation and judgement.

I am still teaching, still trying to sing my own authentic song in the world. But I am get so caught up in the facts that:

There are too many people on the planet.

Human beings are making a choice to give birth to babies and then feed them with polluted water, air, and food. Babies are coming in with illnesses that no child or family should have to experience.

Humans are losing all sense of humanity. 

And most of all humans don’t know the language of Nature. And how does a species survive who does not learn his mother tongue? How do we learn the wisdom of Nature that provides us with life instead of feeling like we are the most evolved species and in dominion over Nature and life?

While I think about these things endlessly, I find myself being strongly called within. For the ruminations of my mind are not productive. 

My words of inspiration in some way start to feel meaningless. At the same time spiritual energies come closer to me dancing with me, going away, coming back, all the while sharing amazing mystical information about yes, the process of letting go but also the miracles that are possible through the really old practices of shamanism – not the superficial practices and ceremonies that make everyone feel good for a short period of time.

For these miracles to happen we go through a death. For right now a part of the collective is only singing dismemberment chants – not realizing the power of their words and thoughts. We no longer have our Creation Stories that teach us how to sing intentions and chants of creation and rebirth.  

It is important when facing death and dismemberment to say goodbye to what no longer serves. And then it is a time to go within and cultivate and tend to your inner landscape through deep spiritual work. Plant the seeds of textures, colors, tastes, sounds, feelings, sights, and even good memories that help us remember how to create and reengage fully in life.

The collective is separating into different dimensions of reality. Or as I have writing for years, we are all finding different waves to ride. For those who want to join in the process of rememberment this is a time to focus your energies in ways you might have not chosen to before.

In January I had a very powerful journey and a very different message from the spirits.

They reminded me how people who journey to the different species in nature keep getting the message that there is compassion for us as we grow into our higher selves and evolve.

If nature is compassionate and we are nature (we are not connected to nature) then what does it say about our own essential nature.

This is helping me with some of my judgements. But it is a work in progress learning how to be compassionate for myself!

As I keep repeating shamans are gardeners are energy. When the helping spirits shared this teaching with me it changed my entire understanding of shamanic practices and healing. To fully grasp that we are only energy and as shamanic practitioners we only work with energy gives us more choices than just looking at the dying of forms as we are seeing today. We are dealing with the thoughts that formed through erroneous and unevolved thinking. We believe that we have the intelligence to think our way through everything. And we don’t.

In reality we don’t even know what to pray for. For we don’t know the language that would make our prayers a reality. I have reflected deeply on when words of power that serve your intention, do not come, be still silent, and let your heart speak.

It is imperative for us at this point to let go of even thinking about the outcome of where the world and our lives are going. This is a time to be silent, pray, perform your ceremonies with as much energetic fuel that you can and let the wisdom of our next steps simply unfold.

Trust me it will!! That is part of being in the flow. When in the flow all the next steps of our practice and actions will unfold.

If everything is energy think of the energy required to transform the current collective’s energy. Ask yourself are you putting in compensatory energy to fully be a transformative force?

If not, then this is what you want to reflect on this month.

The full moon is on February 19. Let’s raise our energy to experience the depth of transformational light we can radiate within and throughout the Earth to really flood all of life and the Earth with radiant light feeding the energy of new birth, life, and creation.

During the month of February Valentine’s Day is celebrated by many. It is a day of celebrating love!

In shamanism reciprocity is one of the most important practices we can engage in. For example, nature loves to be sung to. But when a common language is found between two different species and songs of love are sung to each other magic happens.

Let’s continue to share our love with all of life. Sing love songs and listen to the songs sung back to you!

Transmutation News – January 2019

As we spiral into a New Year there is always a sense of hope. Hope burns bright when we realize that we have new opportunities for healing, growth, and change.

There are always new doorways and openings in the collective fields of energy to find spiritual help for transformation. But many of us wait to see who shows up in our behalf instead of seeking out hidden and infrequently traveled realms. In these unseen territories there are actually very ancient powerful allies that are ready to help if we seek them out, ask the right questions, and learn how we can work with them.

More and more students are sharing with me that they are carrying the Ancient Ones energies into the world.  And there is so much knowledge waiting to help if we take the first step of seeking.

Over the years I have written that the unconscious behavior of humans stems back to the basic principle that most of us did not receive the kind of nurturing love that would help us grow into a mature person who honors oneself, others, and all of life.

If we truly experienced the unconditional love that went into our creation, we would organically carry the energies of love, light, and honor, and respect into every single action we take and into every activity, and meeting with others.

We came here to remember the power of love and light.

First, we have to start with ourselves and relearn how to hold ourselves in unconditional love. And then we have a chance to be able to do the same with others.

And we do know that what is needed is to open up the box we put ourselves in and learn the language of the Earth and nature. Find a being that calls to you in nature – a rock, a leaf, grass, a tree, a river, and so on. Befriend this being. Leave it where it is but make the effort to visit it daily and tell it about your day, talk to it like you would a friend.

Notice if once the nature being you are now in relationship with starts to share with you over time. It takes time to build a connection to nature for we have to open ourselves up to a new way of thinking and a new language as we relate to other species we share the Earth with. But what a lovely practice. And see where it leads you over time. You will probably notice that you open a deeper relationship with yourself and also to nature. Learn the language of Nature and watch how you change.

What an amazing way to greet the New Year. You might also reflect on performing a ceremony to release what pain you are ready to release and set your intention as we welcome in hope and new possibilities of new beginnings. Instead of focusing on the outcome you want, focus on how you want to deepen your work. For that will lead to the highest outcome for all.

The full moon is January 21. Let’s open to the unconditional love of the power of the universe and Source, and radiate beautiful frequencies of light and love that weave into a brilliant web of light that embraces, supports, honors, and uplifts all of life.

I join our circle in holding the best for all of life as we spiral into a New Year!
