  • Let Go & Flow into Your True Path

    Let Go & Flow into Your True Path

    The following is a direct transcript of the video.

    Thank you for joining me for this week’s card reading. It comes from the Kuan Yin Oracle deck and this week it’s Blossoms of the Sky Dancer.

    Okay, so as always, just try to allow yourself to be in this moment. Letting yourself tune out the things that are external, whether it’s a to-do list or the noise around you. Just allow yourself to take these few moments to be present, to be with your breath, be in your body and to take in the message…the part of the message that resonates with you.

    Blossoms of the Sky Dancer

    Kuan Yin dances creative energy and light across the sky, causing blossoms to descend. In the same way, when we tap into our spiritual power of creation, we cause our life and all of life around us, to bloom. Creation is a natural spiritual power within you, beloved. Force can slow down the process. It is time to stop striving and to allow your manifestation to occur. Trust, let go, allow your creation to flow.

    Kuan Yin is a being of divine feminine power. She dances with the sky, the heavenly powers of inspiration, and as a result, life blooms around her. Kuan Yin brings you guidance that you are creating something important right now, something that is aligned with heavenly forces and light, that is significant for the path of spiritual awakening on this planet. Whether you are fully conscious of it or not, it IS happening. Your spiritual light is flowing into the physical plane with the intention to manifest certain life situations and circumstances.These manifestations are in accordance with your spiritual path, and Kuan Yin will support you in their manifestation with her sky dance, which calls the divine light of inspiration and support into earthly creation so that we can experience the divine in form here on Earth.

    The way of the Sky Dancer Kuan Yin is the Yin Way or the way of Divine Magnetism. Yin power is the consciousness and ‘beingness’ that allows us to draw into our lives that which we desire. We become attractive to it – wealth, wellbeing, peace, passion, purpose, friendship, support, success and so on. Rather than going out and striving for it, as though we do not have it within us already, we can grow in our ability to simply be and become simultaneously, until we experience it physically into our lives. It is only a matter of time until it happens.

    To cultivate Yin Power to allow creation to manifest in your physical reality, you can focus more on allowing, flowing, surrendering and participating in the greater flow, rather than the usual ways in Western culture of doing, making things happen, forcing, intending and holding. Kuan Yin guides you now to balance doing with being. Beingness is presence, it is appreciation, it is joyful stillness and wonder, it is the realization within that you are a spiritual magnet, and whatever you want to attract you can, simply by cultivating the qualities you seek to experience externally within you. She guides you to Sky Dance with her now, to become receptive to heavenly energies and to allow the manifestations to blossom, like flowers falling from her divine feet.

    Healing with a Sky Dancer

    Perceive yourself in a vast, peaceful, dark space that feels simultaneously full and empty. This space holds you and yet does not confine you in any way. As you imagine this dark space supporting you, like a cosmic cradle, gently say aloud, “I now call upon the Yin Potency of Kuan Yin to help me let go of the need to force, to struggle and to believe that I must make things happen of my own accord, that I must be in control for my creation to manifest! Help me trust the Universe, trust my own Soul, trust in the inherent goodness of life and the responsiveness of the Cosmos and my own value. Please help me, Beloved, that my creation may occur swiftly and gracefully, with beauty and divine perfection.”

    Imagine that within this darkness, you sense a light weaving gracefully, endless blossoms of light following in its trail. Allow yourself to join with that light, becoming aware that it is the beautiful Sky Dancer Kuan Yin. If you wish, join her in the dance, feeling the heavenly light of creation flowing all around you both now, as a beautiful, open blue sky streaming with sunlight. Feel the joy as blossoms flow from Kuan Yin’s aura and swirl around you both in spirals.

    Be in your heart and when you are ready, just open your eyes.

    And I would encourage you to take a moment, even if you’ve already opened your eyes, maybe just allow yourself to sit with that visual, that energy. And again, notice what resonates…where you might be feeling any sort of sensation in your body.

    This was a lot today. So maybe even listen to this again or read the transcript and just really see where there might be opportunities for you today and maybe more generally to allow…to recognize that you do have within you what you need.

    The creation and authenticity and even ultimately healing doesn’t come from the striving and the need. It comes from the flow and the allowing.

    And I know that’s easier said than done, but it’s a practice, an important practice. And the more you give yourself space to be in that, the more beneficial it becomes, whether we’re talking about taking a message from the universe or even thinking about your own desires.

    Allowing yourself to have desires, to dream, to imagine, all of that is a creative process. And creativity flows naturally, organically, when we create space to allow it to move.

    When we constrain ourselves, we constrain the ability to think outside of what our fear, what our beliefs, what our self-doubt will allow us to consider.

    I know that I’m going to sit with this a little bit more because there were a couple of things that really kind of hit me, and I’m kind of in a little bit of a creative space right now and finding myself getting caught up a little bit.

    So I’m going to sit with this and see where I might be able to apply it a little bit more significantly.

    I’d love to hear from you. What came up for you? Share in the comments.

    Thank you for joining me. Wishing you a beautiful week.

  • The Sign You’ve Been Waiting For: Answering the Call

    The Sign You’ve Been Waiting For: Answering the Call

    The following is a direct transcript of the video.

    Thank you for joining me for this week’s message.

    This week, we drew a card from Native Spirit, from Denise Linn. And this week the message is Answering the Call. I’m really curious if this is more on an individual thing or a collective thing.

    So as always, maybe even pause this to get ready, but try to allow yourself a little bit of space to just be, to listen, to take it in and notice what resonates.

    So allowing your body to relax. So whatever surface you’re on, allowing your muscles and your weight to really be absorbed into the surface and letting your body relax, releasing from your jaw and your shoulders and your hips, your thighs, and even your ankles.

    Just take a nice full deep breath and exhale and notice what comes up for you.

    Any sensations? Did your mind take you somewhere? Is there any resistance or resonance? Just notice. No analyzing, no judging.

    Answering the call

    You’ve been called. If you’ve been waiting for your life to shift, the waiting is over. Your true and authentic life is happening. If you’ve been hoping for a sign, this is it. Right now your spirit guides, ancestors, and loved ones who have passed on are sending you messages, love, and healing. You’ve been called, and a gateway is opening for communications from these spiritual realms. Now, and in the days ahead, signs from Spirit will be all around you. Watch for them.

    Your Native Spirit Wants You to Know

    Indigenous people look to the clouds, the winds, and the movement of animals to discern the secret messages from the Creator. In native traditions, life is ruled by signs. Right now, your spirit helpers are telling you that this is your time. The waiting is over. Sometimes, we spend so much time wanting for life to happen that we miss the joy in the moment. Cherish the here and now, and know that no matter what concerns you may have, in the deepest sense, you are ready. Believe. Follow the signs, and miracles will abound. Your time is now.

    The Journey

    Look for signs. They are all around you. The feather that alights at your feet, the penny that mysteriously appears, or the rainbow splashed across the sky may be sign that Spirit is trying to get your attention. Watch your dreams. Messages from Spirit are often conveyed in nocturnal hours.

    So just take in a full breath. And exhale. And just take a moment to kind of notice, maybe scan what is present. Sensations in your body. Maybe your mind wandered somewhere. Maybe you feel some tension or resistance. Or maybe you feel a relaxation into some resonance. There’s no right or wrong. Maybe give yourself a little bit of space afterward to journal a little bit about what you’ve noticed.

    It’s interesting that when I read the messages from these cards to you, for you, I’m thinking about what it means for any of you. And I have to remind myself sometimes that the whole reason I started doing this was for me and to remember that this message is for me as well.

    And I really hope that you are able to think of this message. I know it’s just a random card that I pulled, and it’s easy to dismiss it. But I think no matter where it comes from, if there’s something that we hear and it resonates, there’s something about it that just kind of hits. And whatever way that might be, there’s a good chance that there’s something important to take from that.

    And I know for me, as I read this, there are some things that I’m going to just kind of let myself reflect on and notice what comes up as I reflect on it and see where that takes me. And I hope that you do the same.

    Thank you for joining me. If you like these card readings, please leave a comment and let me know. I don’t mind doing them. I enjoy doing them. I certainly am going to continue to do them for myself. But if it’s not necessarily something that you’re interested in, then that’s okay, and maybe I won’t continue to share them.

    But if you are interested, make sure to let me know so that I know that you are enjoying it and it’s something that you’d like to see continue.

    Thanks so much for being here. Have a great rest of your week and weekend.

  • A Moment of Reflection: Trusting Your Timing

    A Moment of Reflection: Trusting Your Timing

    The following is a direct transcript of the video.

    Thank you for joining me for today’s card reading. This is a message for the coming week, the coming days, and I invite you to just take in what feels like it resonates, maybe reflect back on it as the week progresses. But today I want to share with you a card from the Kuan Yin Rracle from Alana Fairchild. This is a beautiful deck, both in terms of the imagery and the messages.

    So maybe put one hand over your heart, one hand over your belly. Maybe in order to feel a little bit more open and in a space of receiving, maybe allowing your palms to rest open facing up on your thighs or beside you. Or maybe if you feel you need a little more grounding, maybe put your hands palms down on your thighs.

    So whatever you’re doing, just breathe naturally and fully and notice what comes up for you. If you miss something in the message, you’ll be able to rewind and come back to it. But just try to notice and feel into the energy that is present for you. If any thoughts or to-do lists come in, don’t analyze, don’t judge. Just let it go and come back to the sound of my voice.

    “Did you know that there are no mistakes in the universe and all events, circumstances, relationships, and situations are unfolding in perfection with the timing and intelligence of the divine plan? Any apparent delay is in your favor. If something is happening for you right now, then that is perfect too. Divine timing is perfection. It is safe to trust this now.

    You might be wondering if anything is ever going to come together for you, or if it seems to be happening quickly now, if you are even ready for it. The answer is yes.

    Divine timing is always at play. Whether we are letting go or trying to force something, an intelligent power that is faster than our comparatively limited vision is always in flow, and we are a part of that. We can find so much peace and joy when we realize this and learn to trust and relax in the unfolding of our divine destiny.

    Chinese bamboo helps us learn this wisdom of divine timing. For about five years of its early life, not much appears to be going on as the small roots attempt to ground themselves. Yet when they are ready, those roots are exceptionally strong and the plant suddenly grows like wildfire. There was much more going on in preparation for powerful growth than what appeared to be at the humble beginnings of the bamboo plant. So it can be with divine timing.

    There are periods when not much appears to be going on at all, and we can begin to accept that this will always be the case. Yet this inner preparation time allows for swift development and growth when we are ready. When the time for patient and thorough preparation is over, our growth can happen very quickly, and we might then be concerned that it is all too fast and we cannot keep up with it. But of course, we shall keep up with it because the inner preparation has allowed us to develop a good foundation of spiritual strength. Just like the cycles of the moon that shift from hidden light to full splendor of solar reflection only to shift again, your unfoldment is just a matter of timing.

    You are being encouraged to trust in divine timing and know that all is well in your world. Your dreams and divine destiny are manifesting right now, whether it is obvious or not, and all will continue to unfold according to your highest good.

    Be at peace, beloved. You are not forgotten, nor are your gifts being over or underestimated. All is well in the divine plan unfolding of which you are a part.

    Healing by the bamboo moon. Imagine that you are amongst a lush green forest of bamboo, abundant, cool, and serene. Overhead, the moon rises and you notice that it has grown full. Soft light, serenity, and peace abounds. You become aware of vast fields of bamboo, golden in the moonlight. The bamboo moves peacefully with the breeze. Feel the peace and recognition in your heart. You don’t need to do anything other than just feel it. You belong to nature. You too shall flourish.

    Just feel it.”

    Just let yourself take a moment and feel into, again, that the energy, whatever energy you notice, you might feel it a little in your limbs or your fingertips. You might even notice a little tingling in your ears or warmth. Again, no judgment, no analyzing. Just feel.

    I hope this message lands in some way. I hope it helps you feel a connection to yourself, with me, with our community as there will be various people hearing this message, sharing in this message for this coming week.

    I love to hear from you. What came up? What did you notice? Thanks so much for joining me.

  • Embracing New Beginnings on the Path to Emotional Healing

    Embracing New Beginnings on the Path to Emotional Healing

    The following is a direct transcript of the video.

    I want to share something with you a little different today. So I’m not going to get into the whole history of this for myself, but I have gotten back into a practice of trying to pull Oracle cards whenever I’m feeling like I’m a little disorganized, a little distracted, which has been a lot lately, and I wanted to share it with you today.

    If this is something that you enjoy, definitely let me know in the comments. I might do a little bit more of it. If it’s something you don’t enjoy, that’s perfectly okay. Feel free to scroll by. But I’m going to encourage you to consider this as just a sign to take a step back, take some deep breaths, connect with yourself, connect with me, connect with the community.

    So the deck that I pulled from today is the native spirit deck from Denise Linn. This is a really beautiful deck. She’s part of the Cherokee nation and I just really love it and there’s a lot more I’d like to say about it but I don’t want this to be too long.

    So spirit keeper of the east…so I’m gonna read to you just kind of briefly the message from this card. There’s more that this book goes into with it, but again, I’m trying to keep it a little bit brief. So I’m just going to read the first part to share with you. So if you can, maybe close your eyes and just breathe naturally but fully, and just notice what comes up for you, okay?

    “New beginnings. A fresh cycle is occurring in your life. Wipe the slate clean. It’s now time to release the old and start again. No matter what has happened in the past, it doesn’t need to repeat in the future.”

    And in the East, and the book goes into this a little bit, but the East is where the sun rises. It’s a new day, right? So just kind of let yourself continue to breathe into that. Let the energy of this message come, just land within, and notice the energy that it brings. Really breathing into it.

    Stay here as long as you’d like. Just notice what came up for you. Notice what you’re feeling, where your mind went. I’d love to hear from you. What did you notice coming up? Did you like this? Was it something that you would like to continue to connect with? I have several decks that I pull from.

    Some of them have much longer meanings than others, but I’d love to hear from you. Share in the comments.
