Infinite possibilities begin with you



It is too easy to shift blame and anger onto someone else, something else...to look to the future for a cure or the past for an excuse. Looking here and now with no shame, no blame and no fear of retribution is a healing experience.
Kindness to yourself begins with kindness to others. Learning to unravel the occurrences and happenings with objectivity, mixed with a healthy dose of compassion for yourself and for those involved, will move mountains.

Affirmations for a balanced Mind

When the new year comes around it is often heralded with an insight into how busy or lonely, fulfilled or longing, light or heavy we are feeling. The observance of such things can bring us the opportunity and the enthusiasm to make beneficial changes and to plan a schedule of achievements to aim for.

I use affirmations to help me set up a vibe for the day or week or month. Some of them I'll use each and every day, others I'll keep for when I feel unbalanced and off-course. During January I am compiling a few of the affirmations I'm using and popping them into a file I've named 'Affirmations for a balanced Mind'. In time I will make it available as an ebook for you to download and use at will. I'm intending to put them as a file on my phone so I can access inspiration at my fingertips wherever I am, but you might like to save them as a screensaver so that it rolls across your computer when you have a little downtime.

Here are a couple that I've make up into posters already. They are formulated from the message of the day I am receiving while I wake up and perhaps meditate or contemplate the day ahead, or the situation at the time.



To write your own affirmations for positive thought enhancement, take the 'problem' at present and examine what it means to you. For example: I had a frought morning of children fighting, demanding and whining. All I had wanted to do was enjoy the birdsong from the mountain and cool down as the heat had already risen to an uncomfortable level. When I took the time to observe what I needed to do to achieve harmony and peace I was able to see that my energy was being scattered and I felt scattered, unbalanced and definitely off-course. 

I redirected my emotions from anger, frustration and immaturity towards being the adult they (and I)  needed. And so I thought to myself 'this is all about using my energy wisely and purposefully'. I thought some more on this as I drew the curtains on the sunny side of the house, whacked the fan up to high, and hugged each child quietly asking them for what they needed right now. Within a few minutes everyone was peacefully eating, watching or drawing and no one was fighting or upset. It was within those moments of quietly being a responsible adult (ugh! why IS that so hard sometimes when in reality it's exactly who we are?) that I worked through to the affirmation of "I embrace the most supportive avenue for my energy now". And it felt good.


When things seem to be 'out of control',...specifically your control, it can be therapeutic and restorative to take the time out and formulate an affirmation as a solution. You'll find yourself calmer, more confident and feeling like you have your personal power back! An affirmation for personal power and protection can be "I am now surrounded with Peace & Harmony in every aspect of my Life Experience".  This could set up great vibrational energy for you if you are about to go into a meeting where you feel confronted, or expect confrontation. 

I hope you'll enjoy the affirmations and formulate your very own, specific ones to help you stay on track this year. It is something I work with and weave into the consultations as part of the service for a Holistic Feng Shui Assessment and Home Health Check. Our homes are not free-standing structures unaffected by our emotions. These places we inhabit breathe and love us back when we support them with great quality energy :) Placing affirmations into a space can dramatically affect the occupant's behaviour, and it's as easy as saying them quietly while you clean, or when you perform a Space Clearing Ceremony, or even just in your Mind and projecting them into the space so they sink and vapourise into the area. It is all part of the power within our intentions; that unseen and often untapped resource just waiting there to support YOU and your endeavours.


Blessings for awakening your intentions into their full power!

Flying Stars Feng Shui - May Forecast

Hello cool weather! it's May in SE Qld and we know it because we actually have to wear pyjamas to bed...

May sees the awkward combination of Annual Star 4 visited by the Monthly Star 5 in the Centre...this pretty much sets the tone for the month, where our innermost loves undergo Change in some way. Its a pull on the emotions, the stability of our homes and relationships, and our general demeanour. IF you are experiencing ill-health or a bunch of injury related 'argh', then do input a Salt Water Cure in the Centre immediately and clear away all clutter, repair broken things and just love it up with some calming and healing essential oils and essences. Provide high quality vibrational Qi to lift the Grid and establish Beauty, Harmony and Peace. This goes for the EAST as well...

Following are the Summary and Alert paragraphs from the AIG 2014 (now on Sale for $35.00)


Summary 

If you play your house / building right this month you can pick up some great energy combinations! But if you have a place with a East to West (or vice versa) main door to back door arrangement, well… see if you can find another way of entering the building. Even the SE is getting ansy and has potential for a bit of argy-bargy… A month to “pass the Lavender and Chamomile” for sure. 
The gorgeous things darling are located in the South and the NE. 9,8 is called ‘Healthy & Wealthy’ combination because of the vivacious Star 9 teaming up with that beautiful Wealth Star 8. Its ‘The Angel of Vivacity & Vigour’ (9) with ‘The Angel of Wealth & Happiness’. Just what this month needs! The combination in the NE is the ‘Young Romance’ and can be used to bring us that feeling of being loved, in love, loving other things and other people. Generally, it invites in Love. Pleasure (7) with Happiness (8). Feed both with beautiful jewels in red tones, candle-lit dinners, red cushions, gorgeous things in Fire hues and lots and lots of happy human energy.

North is great too with the ‘super balance’ combo of Water 1 with Fire 9. When these are together you can take a breath, and relax. (repeat) . There may be a tendency to overwork if you are a dominant female and work or sleep or have an entrance door in the SW. It may also lead to a male of the house feeling slightly overlooked. Remedy with Metal element in Shape and Colour…and a little healthy perspective.
Because we are in the month of transition from warm to cool weather, I thought you may like to have this reference diagram for bodily associations of the Flying Stars...might help you to understand any oncoming illness and apply appropriate remedies to rebalance and regain good health. 

Alerts


Centre: Challenges of the Heart can occur as the Star 5 of Earth flies in to meet the Annual Star 4 Wood. This is a forced energy relationship, and Star 5 is going to feel pushed about by our desires. A month to bring Metal in beautiful forms into the Centre of our homes. White lights, sparkling silvers, pearly and serene table runners perhaps…

East& West: The ‘Fighting Bull Sha’ & ‘Clashing Swords’ combinations can really ‘turn it on’ for arguments and fighting. Occurring in the Family and Children sectors gives us a heads up to where the arguments may come from. To dismantle the East combination add lots of Metal and a little bit of those visual representations of Love, Patience and Compassion. For the West, absolutely drown it in Water representations in Shape and Colour only. NO running water at all.

SE: The Abundance sector is hosting the ‘Competition’ combination of 3,4...both Wood elements, one ‘big’ one ‘small’...so they are competing for the same nourishment. Add lots of Water to it if you are in business here, add plenty of Pale and Beautiful Fire to it if you are in a family home.

JUST to reiterate ... there is a LOT of potential for conflict and arguments, even fighting, in this months' energy grid. My take on it is that we'll feel friction from virtually anything, so being conscious of that possibility, and doing all we can to enjoy as much peace and tranquil nature as we can will go a long way to diffusing the possible explosions of emotional behaviour.  If we can't find a way to resolve arguments that leave us feeling 'good' and leave the other party knowing they have had their issues addressed, means we haven't really accessed a solution at all. 

"All Solutions I access bring Peace and Understanding"

Rescue Remedy is available from HTC for only $15.00 and is perfect to have on hand for any situation where we feel emotional overload or 'life overwhelm'. I also use it as a preparatory strategy for any situations that I find give me anxiety before they happen. You might also love to have some Aura Protection Mist as well ;} Magic Earth Mumma (my alter ego) has some natural and organic aromatherapy ideas you may find helpful. As always, I am available for consultations in person at your home or online via an e-consultation. Please see the website for details here, or contact me direct here, for any questions you may have.

Blessings and Beautiful Things

April Feng Shui Forecast - it's sort of an East meets West 'thing'

Welcome to April!
This month's Energy Signature is all 'bi-polar' to say the least. We have a set of influence combinations that can be really (really) troublesome if there is any low level energy about, and a couple that are pure gold if activated 'the right way'. It can herald a period of transformation, extension, and expansion. It might take us places we hadn't planned to travel to 'yet'.

To get the most out of the energy layers for this period starting in the first week of April and running to the first week of May, I suggest that everyone take keen observation of their living and working spaces, and with a critical eye, assess the level of energy present. I'll be writing up a small post about some ideas to follow as a 'step by step' process very soon, so stay tuned, but there are guidelines for decluttering and clearing spaces in the AIG 2014.
For now though, here is the Forecast...

This month, "I float serenely through my life experiences towards a bright and prosperous future"

Here's the Summary from the AIG 2014...
"A great month for anyone who’s business relates to the Arts or creativity of any sort. The ‘Rich & Famous’ combination of the Wealth Stat 8 visits the Annual Star 6 in the Creation sector in the West. This bodes well for anyone who’s deal is creating, working with children or the child-like concepts of wonder and imagination. Enhance the Wealth Star with Fire element representations in Shape and Colour. A similar tone is set for the South with the Annual Wealth Star visited by the Wisdom Star 1. This really propels the Wealth Star into action as it is Earth put in motion to ‘act’ via the emotive Water element of the Star 1. Balance this productive energy with lots of Fire and small amounts of Metal element to really move the Sheng and Ko cyclic energy.
Beware of illness affecting employment or endeavours as the Star 2 of Earth visits the North and is nourished by the Annual Star 9 of Fire. This can see issues of stomach bugs, and indigestion problems relating to ‘fire in the belly’. Fevers relating to digestive system problems can flare up. To alleviate this potential give the area lots of Metal in Shape and Colour, and if it is a bedroom or kitchen then apply the Calabash or Golden Gourd cure.
Not much contemplation happening in the NE if you have a social room or main entrance there. The socializing combination of Vivacious Star 9 and Pleasure seeking Star 7 can really kick up their heels if given a good stage. Great for a Tarot n Tea morning if you’re thinking of something a little more reserved and restrained."
and the Alerts ...
"SE: “ugh” the litigation combination of 5,3 means that if you are involved in contracts, negotiations or any form of litigious communications and doings you will want to play it very quiet and very very correct this month. In fact, if you can get a sick note for the month do so...all the paperwork will be there in June when you’ll have more energetic support to be competitive. Add the Sound of Metal here to soothe and relax. Do ANY paperwork twice and then again with fresh eyes on it. Namaste!

Centre: in matters of employment, this combination can really mean a trying time for anyone in the Authority spectrum. Star 4 is helping everyone realize their true talents, which may or may not correlate with their required daily tasks. Breath deeply. Managers will need to be gently firm with delegation and regulation. And this goes for parents and carers too… Add Water and Pale / Beautiful Fire in equal doses. Add those items that remind you of Patience and Compassion into the Centre… See? It’s so good to recycle isn’t it?"
The April Monthly (bold case number) & Annual Influences Chart - you can find out more about the associations of each number in my manual 'Holistic Feng Shui & Energy Layers' available on the website
So the shimmy of it all is...

  1. if you have a front door / main entrance in the North or West you are in for a busy month, so prepare to get your priorities quickly in order and prepare the spaces here for maximum 'wealth' expansion strategies.
  2. if you have an office in the SW you will be in for a month of intense connection making! 3,1 is the Commerce combination of 3 Wood (Ambition/Preparation/Growth/Competition) being naturally nourished by 1 Water (Wisdom, Ideas, Expression, Danger, Vocation, Career, Life Path). Its big 'go get'em' mojo and manifesting in the Connections sector means there is a potential for extreme burnout, so honour thy energy levels and prosper ;)
  3. if you have an 'important place' like bedroom, front door, home office, office, shop front etc... in the SE then this month sees you exercising extreme caution with all contractual dealings. There is also a potential for any low level energy to affect our sense of Abundance, our perception of our passion in life and our purpose for 'being here'...it can get heavy, so I strongly suggest that you beautify and organise this area this month to be pristine, 'loved up' and nourishing. Cleanse, Clear and keep quiet.


It may seem that for some of us we have a very quiet April to experience (mainly because we'd be 'keeping out of trouble') the other half may be in for a 'hold on tight you're in for the ride of your life' kind of time. Duplicitous energy to say the least...

Time to Reflect

I've had the opportunity to spend a little time in contemplation each day since moving house. I made this time 'appear', gave it to myself, requested its arrival...there are many way to get Time to do what you need to do...

The beauty of contemplation is that unlike a directed meditation, I had no agenda. I was sitting in quietness, or apart from the noise of life, and simply inviting in the messages that needed to arrive...with the Time ;)
"Hello Life, what is it you need to tell me?"

Recently the message coming through had been to do with the journey of the last few years...specifically since a mini-crisis in 2007. I was moved towards Kirtan, meditation with chanting Blessings and the names of Divine Beings  in a group. This repitition and gathering of like Minds and Hearts was truly cathartic and healing. I didn't really know what I was going through at the time, just that it was a blossoming of sorts, and it felt relieving, ... selfish in some ways. 'Reservist' is how I'd describe my mindset of the time. I was sorting and sifting my knowledge, being inspired and dejected at once.

Once through the establishment of this healing I got sick. Very sick, but thankfully I healed quickly too. Then I conceived my third child. Then I went through a healp more confusion and angst, almost apologising to people for my health and fertility! A child is a Blessing, a challenge and the reward all in one go. I ended up having the most empowering birth experience.

Life once again turned into a game of 'can she take this much?', and me, ever stubborn and quietly willful, would rise again and again to the tasks of each hour, each day, week, month until finally another year had passed and I had survived, family intact, mind a little wiser, heart a little fuller.

What I have done is continually 'upgrade' my life by the thoughts and actions I choose to take. The choice of what I consume in both physical and non-physical terms has been radically overhauled in a matter of years. And the outcome?
More Harmony, better Health, a vastly improved appreciation of Wealth and the hunger to grow more and more. I'd say I've actually got ambition now... (!)

So as I move towards 2012, with the knowledge streams flowing towards me that I have intentionally set up, I feel 'prepared'. I feel that this new babe I am to birth in mid-February next year will again provide avenues for me to be challenged to succeed and grow into whoever Jannette is meant to turn out to be. And I trust that will all work out Perfectly too.

Blessings for Beautiful Journeys

Flying Stars Feng Shui Forecast for September

'Verbal Expression' is the Energy Signature of the 7,1 combination which manifests in the Centre this month, and it can also have several other manifestations....
Star 7 associations of Mouth, Teeth, Thorax, Chest, Pleasure, Destruction, Joy, Speech, and Star 1's associations of Ears, Blood, Kidneys, Gonads, Danger, Wisdom, Ideas and Expression, has the potential to lead to some Very Interesting energy combinations!
In the positive state (with high vibrational energy in place and maintained spaces of Love) 7,1 produces an energy that can bring excellent communications, wonderful quotable insights within conversations and 'everyday wisdoms' born of mundane activities. It manifests as a joyfulness in life that feels like a pleasant energy layer descending upon or enveloping all that we do.
In a negative state (unloved places, ugly situations) 7,1 can mean sexual harrasment, perverted thought patterns, biting speech, hurtful communications, health issues with teeth/mouth/gums, tonsilitis, bronchitis, indigestion, etc.

I'd prefer to go for the positive state anytime, so the Centre of my house is getting a really good clean up and tidy out this month! I'm going to love it up with some gorgeous incense and a thorough cleaning :)

Here we go for the sectors 'round-up': (I've also just completed a new 'page' on the blogsite to explain why and how the Forecast is used)

NW: Star 8 is visited by Star 2 which is always a great thing for anything 'property' related. Star 2 is associated with the Earth, hence the property link, and Star 8 is also Earth, but more so Wealth and Happiness. Could mean an acquisition of property or an improvement in your current abode. 'Receptivity' is also a key part of Star 2 which will show its best side in company with Star 8. "I am open and Ready to Receive Beautiful acquisitions" could be the mantra of the month...
Tip: BOOST with beautiful Fire and Earth representations. Gorgeously inspirational posters of beautiful places you enjoy looking at, or a bowl of gemstones on the table to run your finger through...

SW: 4,7 is a potentially 'naughty' combination given the Passion and Pleasure associations ;) In its lowest form it can result in sexual harrassment, but in its best expression it can mean a joyful connection to one's true passions and loves. 
Tip: ENHANCE with Pale Fire representations like a large specimen of Rose Quartz.

West: 9,3 can mean excellent inspiration for the Creation sector. Star 9 is Beauty and Clarity (the Fire Agent) which will be naturally fed this month by the Wood Agent of the 3 Star.
Tip: Meditate here upon any need for creative input into any situation. BOOST with representations of Fire and Wood elements.

East: 5,8 means that the usual 5 Star 'dramas' should abate. Health and Family situations have the ability to resolve and repair this month if they have been an issue throughout the year so far.
Tip: Please keep in place, or put in place, The Sound of Metal which is the most potent distracting method for Star 5.

NE: 1,4 in the Contemplation sector can lead to really excellent meditations! 1 is Wisdom and 4 is Passions...yeah :), it can get very insightful!
Tip: BOOST with Metal and Water representations. Metallic blue wavy objects, or make your own artwork for the month to hang on the wall.

SE: The Growth and Wealth sector is visited by the Vivacious Star 9, however its not always welcomed by the Authority Star 6. This combination can lead to excessive or flippant spending of Time and Money. Be alert to this and put the credit card away.
Tip: BALANCE with a combination of Earth, Water and Wood representations. See the helpful diagram on the 'How to use the Forecast' page for ideas about Shapes and Colours.

South: Uggh! the Perception sector has that uck combination of 5,2. Don't muck about. Keep it quiet, and clean and tidy etc... This has the potential to make you have the syndrome 'making mountains out of molehills'. If it all seems like its falling down around you take some time away from your home and see if they change in space can help you change the perceptions that have formed.
Tip: The Sound of Metal in double or triple dosages! A wind chime, play the piano music inside the house regularly, and also put som bells on the doorknobs. Remove anything that could be a Fire representation if you can, if not, SUBDUE heavily with physical Metal representations.

North: The Vocation sector is influenced by another contentious potential...the 6,3 combo. Its Authority and Ambition which only works well if they can form a harmonious union. Flashpoints occur with the Authority energy attacking the Ambitious urges. Subordinates will feel oppressed while Superiors may fall into 'power trip' mentality. Be alert to these low level manifestations and change tack if possible before anyone gets injured...
Tip: SUDUE the whole combination by placing Pale Fire and Water representations. Also utilise high vibrational energy affirmations and printed quotes that encourage Harmony, Unity, Integrity and Beautiful Peace.

Apologies for this forecast being a little late. The Feng Shui month began on the 8th of September, so we are only a few days shy of it all :)


Wishing you all a beautiful, peaceful and healthy September.
Blessings

I wanna build a bonfire...

...a HUGE one, built out of all the things I want to ignite in my life.

Usually bonfires are associated with the ritual of burning off 'stuff' we no longer need, and the symbolic meaning of returning unhappy events' energy back to the ethers for recycling into good mojo for the next turn of Time, but it doesn't have to be this always. Gypsy people have a saying, 'make fire your friend', because fire, the ignition of energy into heat and light, brings us comfort, the ability to be warmed, see clearly in darkness ... and that inner-radiance that we carry recognises the Energy Signature of a built fire. It says 'hello friend' :)

I suppose this idea of 'building a bonfire' is akin to beginning a vibrational frequency of thought+spirit+intent and allowing it to expand, bloom and flourish.

  1. Firstly, what is my bonfire's purpose? To ignite and establish a beginning point for some of my true passions.
  2. Secondly, to create a community of support where we all help each other 'feed our inner radiance, and grow our bonfires'.
  3. Thirdly to create the catalytic energy required for real change.

I can't imagine doing something like this solely for myself anymore. Everything I do now is tuned towards creating a greater awareness for many people...as many people who can connect to it as possible.

So what's my bonfire primarily made of? :) I love to think of each intention, thought, dream and spirit wish as a stick or log that I bring to the pile. Each one will become part of the intense heat of expression I release. So for now I'm building my pile. I've got sticks that are for Love, and Health, and Peace. The usual deals ;) Then bigger logs the size of tree branches for Life Purpose, Actualising Self Sufficiency, Providing Security for my Family and more...it'll take time to refine my intentions so I feel they are in Perfect Alignment with my true self's journey here and now. Some of these additions to my bonfire will take a while to burn fully, and when spent, will indicate the successful completion of that intention into manifestation. Others will provide immediate warmth and a glow that will make me smile and sigh with contentment :)

I'd love to know about your bonfire, its purpose and how you're building it. Bonfires of this kind aren't for burning off 'stuff', they are for transforming latent energy into Ecstatic Light! Remove associations with 'I don't want this anymore', and bring to your bonfire the energies of, 'I wish to attract THIS'. Positive Affirmation junkies (or nerds...if you will) can enjoy this kind of exercise, and for others it is a way of transforming thought processes from negatives to positives.

That's always an 'enLIGHTening' thing to achieve, ...it 'FIRES UP' your enthusiasm, ... provides 'KINDLING' for your future success ;)....alright...stopping now ;P

If you'd like to become part of the community supporting each other's bonfires, you can comment on the blogpost or join me on FB on my personal page or the biz page for HolisticTherapyConnections. (I'm also on Twitter too...social media is a great way of connecting)

To begin, add your first one or few 'sticks' to your bonfire. You might even like to name your bonfire...'Harold' or 'Mary'... or something more evocatively appropriate like 'Ignatious' 'Eldred', 'Seraphine', 'Eithne' or 'Enya' ... all names that have associations with fire, flame or spiritual fires. My bonfire is called 'Gypsy' because this is where I first began to learn about fire as a friendly thing instead of fearing it. This word, 'gypsy' has so many associations in regards to freedom, knowledge, healing, walking outside of the mainstream, the natural world, strength, fierceness, and community for me that it became my fire's name immediately. So, 'Gypsy' has its first few sticks and branches, and I feel the need to provide more kindling...I need some 'crunchy stuff' for it to consume right away...
oooooh! there you go... I do feel an Intention or two for the coming few weeks emerging :) ...


Blessings for Radiant Manifestation!

Tuning into Love - 029 Solutions

Nothing like a particularly trying morning to put into perspective 'how' you cope or 'deal' with situations when they arise.

Take today for example. I wake up, check the email after a quiet breakfast, and am greeted with a notice that a quite large payment has been 'automatically' taken out of my account as part of a website hosting agreement I don't remember making...not a great start...
I contact the company to be met with the startling truth that 'yes, apparently you have this charge and it is correct'. Eeeeeks! I can't remember this being in the fine print but of course...its Mercury Retro at the moment, so I'm half smirking to myself, the other half is slightly panicking about the size of this unexpected payment...

For a while now I have been considering revamping the HTC website so that it flows with where I am now in Life, Biz and Love...and you know, only last night I had been trialling things out in my head..."maybe I should just cut it all away and start again", "maybe it would be good to have some collaboration with the design", "maybe I can just chuck it all in and use the blog for a while till I figure out what to do...", and then I wake up to this 'opportunity' :) Gotta love it eh?

For a little while I'm in 'worry mode'. 'ooooh all that work and effort' in the current website....'oh dear, what a lot of work to put it altogether again...' etc etc etc. And then I look at the screen again, with the annoying and condescending 'e-assistant' response to my harried questions. I breathe. I take it all in and think, 'well actually, this is what I've been requesting, a whole new opportunity to start again'.

No idea where this pic comes from (had it for years) but I love the energy of Ammonites...they are said to hold ancient earth, sea and star knowledge within their spiral manifestation...

So today I Tune into Love with the realisation that I have beautiful opportunities coming my way with only a small amount of prompting. And, that it's not about figuring out the problems or rising to the challenges that come along, but for me it is about sitting back and surveying the many solutions that arise from the opportunities that present themselves for my perusal.

Tuning into Love 026 - 'Its the simple things in life that make you Happy'

GratitudeToday, my children are arguing over what to play before we leave the house to visit family.
Today, I have changed the sheets on my bed and am looking forward to sliding into bed tonight with that 'clean sheet sensation' I remember from childhood.
Today, I've had a celery, apple, pomegranate, flaxseed oil and superfood powder smoothie for breakfast.
Today, the dining table is tidied, with a new white tablecloth and doiley.

There's not much to this Gratitude mindset. Its as easy as looking around to find that I live in a country with no war. To see that my home is comfortable, secure, pleasing and provides my family with a sense of place.

The simplest things in my life bring me the greatest joys, and the most significant expressions of progression (some of you may know these as 'challenges' ;] ). My home is a constant source of expression, solution-finding exercises, and sanctuary.

What's your simple joy?

"I embrace my child's unique expression"

"I gather the Love and Joy, Safety and Happiness, that my Home offers me"

"I am Grateful for the Peace around Me"

Love and Blessings

PS: I love the idea of a Gratitude Book, but think that it would be a marvellous expression of a life's appreciation to assemble over a period of time. Wouldn't you love to receive a Gratitude Book about YOU from birth to adulthood that your parents put together? or one about the first year of marriage/partnership compiled by you and your partner? There are any number of ways you could 'time frame' your Gratitude Book, ... good project huh?

Tuning into Love 025 - "So far..."

Wow, this year has certainly begun with its full share of Destruction from the Star 7 energy. We are all feeling the effects of shock, sorrow, displacement and sadness, but also there is immense hope, beautiful energy of compassion and kindness that is emanating from all of the events in the past two months. Humans are realising that we are here for each other. Out of all of this pain comes something as dazzling as human love. And for those of us who are still raw and bruised within the grip of grief, or experiencing first hand the grief of someone we care for, we can take heart that in time the shock eases, the pain eases, and the memories of the best times with those now lost, or times past, bloom soft and soothing.


"I now invite Beautiful Memories to my Mind"

Star 7 is the Ruling Influence for 2011 to Feb 2012, and its name is 'The Spirit of Destruction', with associations of Pleasure, Destruction, Joyousness and Speech. It has the energy of 'hidden messages' because the ancient way to write its name using a Trigram (three lined drawing) looked like a mouth speaking, and of its other association with the landscape of a marsh...shallow water (emotions on the surface) and unstable earth below. It is compelling for me as a student of Flying Stars Feng Shui to study the correlation of events this year with the Ruling Influence associations. Floods that have moved over our landscape and earthquakes that have rocked the stability of our world. While it is great to be forewarned of possible misfortune, it is quite difficult to predict what our planet will go through with pinpoint accuracy, and to do so can systematically destroy a flow and beauty to Life itself.


"I am Me because of the happenings of my Life"


For now, the emphasis is on looking to support those in need. If we are not physically close we can help energetically, by performing meditations, quiet contemplative moments sharing our Heart energy with anyone in need. If we are physically close we can open our homes, and our hearts to people who need comfort and sustenance. Its not about how much money you can or cannot donate, the currency of Love and Understanding, of really being there for someone, far exceeds any financial assistance we could offer. And yes, that means putting up with the question of 'why me', or patiently accepting that the natural instinct is to find someone to 'blame'. If you are providing assistance as a carer or counselor, you too are in need of support. A combination of therapies like 'time out' in silence, regular doses of Rescue Remedy (Bach Flower Essences) and soothing aromatherapy like Rosewood and Chamomile to encourage good sleep will help you cope with the emotional onslaught.

Destruction is always a catalytic thing. It brings about change and new growth. People find within the experience of Loss, emotions never felt, and reserves of strength they've never tapped before. With the event of Solstice 2012 coming up, there is much for the human race to consider. As an observer of planetary and galactic energy I see there is a powerful shift taking place during the last decade, it has been building and building from one massive display of action and emotion to another, each one changing the consciousness of our societies. The culmination of it all is something I trust the powerful force of Love that guides this reality has in order.


"We are all Infinitely Powerful and Loved"

So far, we have come, and so far we are here, and so far, we are able to provide relief, help, comfort, love and understanding for those who need it. So far. We have come SO far and wherever we are now, we will get 'there' from 'here'. Exactly where we are Now.
Blessings for Hope and Security, Love and Compassion

Tuning into Love 024 - 'Watching the Gratitude grow'

Many years ago, I discovered that I felt really good when I loved where I was, instead of wanting to be somewhere else. I discovered that this feeling of being grateful for what I had made me feel wealthy, contented and happy. I felt 'good'. I didn't know at the time that I was tapping into any kind of 'secret' way of thinking that provided success and good health, I just noticed that it helped get me through some very tough life challenges, and situations that were 'bringing me down' ;)

With the rise in interest created by using concepts of 'being in the Now', we find that more and more focus is put on being or feeling grateful for what we have, even if what we have is only a few things left over from some disastrous occurrence. After a tragic happening in my own life I remember distinctly that focusing on what I still had helped me get through the worst of the pain and helped my recovery. Something as simple as realising that I could still walk (shakily) was liberating, because I knew I would get stronger and stronger, and walk easily again one day. And I do now.

I see so many websites and businesses now that focus upon Gratitude as a powerful force of Life. The Law of Attraction works with, or in tandem with, many other Universal Laws, but especially works well with Gratitude. And it doesn't have to be overtly difficult to find things to be grateful for.
I find that closing my eyes and requesting beautiful memories brings up feelings of Gratitude.

Remembering the sound of my Grandmother's chiming clock, and the smell of her house, and the carved woodwork in the doorways of her house. This memory fills me with Gratitude for the time I spent with her in my childhood; the endless pots of tea, the pikelets and jam :) I was loved and adored, and I had a place that I was welcomed into, and at that moment in my life I belonged there, completely. That's something I am truly grateful to have a memory of, because I use it whenever I feel like I am in the flux of Life, and without an anchor...I use these kinds of memories as my anchors.


"I am Loved and Treasured in all Time and Space"
"My Existence has Infinite Purpose"
"I am held softly in the arms of Grace"

Acknowledging my many wealths makes them to Grow even more. Have a look around, there is so much to be grateful for.

What are some of my simple joys?
Teacup print Pyjamas
Chatting, and the sound teacups make when in use
Comfortable sheets
Healthy children
The need to ask "?"
Blue sky, and clouds, and rain, and grass
Sunset
Plants in my garden that I can eat
Almonds in my pantry and Blueberries in my fridge
The desire to 'help', 'assist', 'serve'
Coconut Oil (SO MANY uses...)
Knowing that nothing really needs to be done quickly
Being taught to breathe out slowly when I stretch

...and now my Mind is just chugging away like a locomotive, accessing 'this and this' that I am grateful for, that I find joy and pleasure in...amazing to experience the sparkliness of the human Mind in its happiest state! :))
So good to sit back, and watch the Gratitude grow ;)

Blessings and Beautiful Dreaming of All Things That You Love

How to promote opportunities for WEALTH ...

So its Feng Shui New Year straight after Chinese New Year in 2011! That means we can get preparations completed and great new energy grids set up for you and your property to receive Peace, Health and Prosperity this year :) Great stuff!

What you absolutely need to know this year to promote opportunities for WEALTH:
Clear up and make gorgeous the NW area of your property and building. The Annual Wealth Star 8 is residing in the NW Progression (Travel and Helpful People) sector this year, and will be encouraging wealth opportunities via advice from Mentors, Gurus, Teachers, Good Samaritans, Guardian Angels and the like. The energy of the NW is one of Divine Synchronicity, where you are able to 'tap into' the collective consciousness and find exactly what you need when you need it.

*de-clutter - this promotes the good Chi Flow in all matters of wealth. If you have no 'space' in your physical living or working environment, then the Universe interprets this as meaning you have no room for new energy. When we don't de-clutter we may feel heavy, possibly distracted, and overwhelmed with the care and storage of possessions. Without an outflow there can be no beneficial inflow, only blockage, bloating, stagnation. Remove items that would keep you locked into unhappy memories, past problems or unbeneficial connections.

*clean  - using environmentally conscious cleaning choices, remove dirt, smells, dust, rubbish, etc from the NW. View your work as if it was an invitation to the Universe to come on in with the wealth ideas!

*set an intention/affimation - what do you need in your life? what is your 'wealth' going to be? how would you like wealth to manifest in your life? Set aside some time to identify just what it is you are intending to attract this year to make you feel 'wealthy'. Write up an affirmation and place it in your diary, in a frame for the hallway table, or in an envelope to put into a Wealth Vase.
"I attract spontaneous windfalls of cash in Perfect Ways"
"My business' Prosperity increases every day"
"My family Love and Appreciate me just as I am"
"I invite the beauty of Time for All Things to manifest in my Life"
"I am now receiving Healing on all required levels of my Being"
You will figure out what your 'wealth' is... ;)

*Place a running water feature in the NW for this year, and clean the water regularly. This stimulates Chi Flow and 'activates' the wealth influence.

*Place some reddish coloured gemstones in the NW to support the Annual Wealth Star 8, which is an Earth element and nourished by Fire.

*Place images of things that imbue the space with a feeling of 'Flow'. Waterfalls, Rivers, etc, or icons like Arch Angel Micheal, Ganesha (Remover of Obstacles), Lakshmi, a Cornucopia (horn of prosperity), Golden Buddha, etc that invite in the kind of energy you require to help with your chosen affirmation.

Not sure where I got this image from....if its yours let me know so I can credit you with it :)

Use the Northwest area of your property or building as a place to take breaks, brainstorm with pad and pen, surf the net with a laptop, read, listen to radio programmes, watch TV...etc, any activity where you enable a conduit for messages to reach you...'unexpectedly'. ;)



Feng Shui New Year begins on February 4th 2011. Chinese New Year is on Feb 3rd 2011. In either case, its good to have done a stack of cleaning, tidying and clearing out before these dates. Clean the front door area too so that your property says 'hello! and Happy New Year' with the best possible appearance :))

You might find this post called 'New Year Feng Shui' helpful if you need a few more tips for New Year preparations. And you can find out all about the energy layers for 2011 in the Annual Influences Guide and Calendar available only from Holistic Therapy Connections.

Blessings for Peace, Health and Prosperity :)

Tuning into Love 023 - 'What is your treat?"

Since when does giving yourself a 'treat' equal piling up with processed sugar and gunk?
"I can't give that up! its my Treat!!"
I hear this when I talk about aiming for good health and making serious but life altering changes to the way we live. The whole concept of what 'normal food', normal life, happiness, fulfillment, is, is totally skewed. The concept of what a Treat is, is totally skewed.

A treat to me is when I get a meditation done without being interrupted by a little person needing help to go to the toilet. A treat to me is getting a half box of gorgeous smelling Mangos from my Brother, and then a box of Cherries too, and a half box of Lychees as well! What a treat! A treat to me is finding a place in myself that is quiet and responsive enough to help my children past an emotional issue. A treat to me is the smile on my partner's face and the twinkle in his eye when he is relaxed. A treat to me is finding moments of Peace.

A treat is not a pastry and cafe coffee. It's a bad food choice. Especially if you are doing this each week or each day as 'your treat'.
A treat is not ice cream. That's non-nutrition, heavy and undesirable to the human metabolism.
A treat is not a day out trolling through shops, mindlessly looking at consumables. That's a waste of time and energy.

Tuning into what I LOVE helps me in making good choices about my Treats. I love treating myself to the things that truly nourish me. I LOVE that I've made the connections in life that have brought me great teachers. I LOVE that I am still learning and still falling over at times...it gives me Perspective on the whole situation facing humanity. We aren't here to make treats for ourselves, they are already in place for us to enjoy.



"I LOVE my simple pleasures"
"I am provided for and Loved in so many different ways"

Beautiful Blessings for being able to acknowledge real blessings, small mercies and miracles.

Tuning into Love - 022 'It's certainly OK to freak out now and again...'

...especially if you are able to take perspective of the situation by recognising your behaviour as 'freaking out'.

It's not as if this world we live in doesn't give us ample opportunities to be completely shocked, amazed, dazed and confused at any moment during a day or a week or a month. By the end of the year we may truthfully and justifiably be asking "Has the whole world gone insane?", to which will come the hearty reply, "Yes!-we-are-all-utterly-mad!!"

Losing control can sometimes be cathartic. It can establish a connection to behavioural patterns from our parents, guardians or other authority figures from our childhood, and help us acknowledge a 'learned response' that may or may not be beneficial. Consider how the loss of control made you feel. Did it encourage an energy flow that felt like 'release' or 'aggression'? If it was the latter then of course its time to identify another way of handling stressful situations, or avoiding them altogether....

If it was a 'release' that you received then perhaps observe whether you are 'holding on too tight' to the control of a situation. Maybe there is a need for you to be able to loosen your grip, take a step back and survey what's going on, instead of trying to negotiate every single twist and turn of action taking place.

"I tune into Love by letting go and trusting the flow of my Life"
"I consent to letting others live their own lives"
"I always send Love out into the world and receive it back"

Take the time to apologise or explain yourself if you need to. Don't carry around any guilt about exploding emotionally,...we are all living in times of trial, but also, don't expect other people to put up with repeated displays of excessive emotional tides. Its just not fair to you or them.  
Tune in to the Love that surrounds you. 
Find the connections that bring you back to the best person you are, and then give 'em a big hug. You deserve it ;)

Ample quantities of Rescue Remedy also help immensely...

Tuning into Love 021 - 'The view from up here'

At times life can bring us some enormous challenges. At times, we can feel completely overwhelmed with obligation, commitments and responsibilities. And at times our Perspective is the thing that is ultimately challenged. Through all of these things we can remember that those times are but 'episodes' in our normal life...and that drama and trauma, sadness and grief are fleeting occurrences.

You know when someone says 'I fell into Depression' or 'I feel really down'? They are literally describing their Energy Signature and what their aura, or energetic vibration, is going through. Personal energy sinks when we are faced with problems and obstacles, difficult situations or people, its just what happens. The actual event or person or place is dragging on our energy, and it weighs us down, below our normal 'vantage point' of contemplation and examination of any situation. When we are 'down' we can never see the whole picture, we become enclosed in the drama or sadness of the occurrence taking place.

When we exhibit recovery a person may say 'I feel on top of the world now!' or 'I feel like a weight has been lifted from me'. The sensation can be one of immense relief and sometimes a physical 'lightening' or floating feeling comes over us. It's Happiness, Peace, Gratitude...all of those things wrapped up and woven into a vibration that is what Life is meant to be. The solution to unhappiness in any form is gaining the best vantage point for your personal perspective. Training your Mind to accept the truth of a situation, instead of the panic story it can sometimes tell you, can be one of the most empowering experiences you can achieve in human form!

Imagine walking down a long hallway in darkness, and then finding the light switch. You look back at all the perceived obstacles you thought were there, all the fears of tripping over something in the dark, or being attacked by some invisible assailant, only to see the way was all clear anyway, and you didn't have anything to fear in the first place. Perception is Everything ;)


I know from personal experience that when we are 'in a ditch' we don't see right. The clarity of our thoughts is skewed, our Heart is bruised, our Mind panics. I spent episodes of Life not so much in a 'hole', but more like I spent years mining through solid rock, not seeing that the tunnel I was creating was not a solution, it wasn't a 'way out' of the mess I was in; it was forward in some respects, but it wasn't easy, it wasn't pleasant, and it didn't make me happy...it just exhausted me more and more as I dug further and further under the mountain. Getting out of it took a decision that my previous choices were incorrect. I had to backtrack and find where I'd taken a wrong turn,.... and then it appeared. The Way Out. And it was upwards. Back on the surface the view cleared, a way appeared, I continued climbing up, up, up. I have a clear vision of me climbing trees and viewing the world as if I was perched high above the goings on below me. Confident that the view from here was the real deal.
.
Solstice is a time of reflection and also a time of planning. Its a 'pivot point' for our planet, and we can use it's Energy Signature to gain better perspective on any of our perceived current challenges.

"I tune into Love with contemplation on Gratitude"
"I know that only Happiness is enduring"
"I am strong, loved, and protected always"

Beautiful Solstice Blessings of Lightness and Clarity for all who are feeling a little overwhelmed at this time of year. Time passes forward for us in this dimension,and we can rely on it to fade pain into the Past, bring in new energy, new hope, new Life and new connections to Love in many forms.

Light and Peace

Tuning into Love - 020 'Listening to the Light'

One of the most amazing things I've read in the last 5 years was a paper published about the human brain, and how light is created from the tiny electrical charges that come from minute hairs (cilia) in the canals of our brains. 'Mindblowing' stuff for sure. The paper was called 'The Divine Light of Consciousness' and apart from a heap of heavy bioscience references that went way beyond my attention, it described the rush of brain fluid through these canals that moved the cilia and created an electrical charge, which is Light.  The paper went on to discuss that as Light carries with it a frequency, these movements of cilia could in actuality be messages in a language only the brain understands. The question of the whole paper seemed to be whether we could equate these light frequencies to messages from the God Mind. I loved it.


I loved it because I often find myself with a certain phrase or word running through my Mind for a set of time. Could be days, or hours, could be a whole month or more; and I smile at the correlation it usually has to world events or momentous events in my own life. (I've really got to start recording this more directly when it occurs...) Could this be a set of Divine Messages sent to guide or reassure me in this Life? I like to think so.

"I tune into and accept Divine Love's assistance"
"I know I am deeply cared for"


This last month has been all about 'propulsion'. Specifically the words 'hydraulic' and 'pneumatic'. Water and Air, very elemental. I love the idea that things are being moved with that dramatic force associated with hydraulics and pneumatics, where the ability of humans is enhanced by the simple use of these available resources. That soft 'shhhhhh' of air or 'whooosh' of water and the immense weight it can help us lift and move. Feel it too? :)

Blessings

Tuning into Love - 019 'Shine like a Diamond'

It only takes one bout of 'the lurgy' to make me appreciate my general good to great health all the more. This last week I've nursed my three babies through a nasty set of high temperatures, snuffles, coughs, chills and the rest, till finally on the weekend I went down with the same thing. Perfect Timing of course, as my partner was home and could take care of them and me. (he was so pleased to go back to work on Monday, I can tell you)

We are all on the mend now, thanks to a weaving of therapies like Homeopathy (thanks to my beautiful friend Butterfly), Crystal Therapy (Oh how I LOVE and appreciate Black Tourmaline and Clear Quartz), Aromatherapy (Yay for Eucalyptus, Cedarwood and Lavender mixes!), Hydration Therapy, Massage (Sinus massage and Lymph massage help incredibly well), Yogic Breathing exercises, heaps of nutritious superfood smoothies, the blessing of having Holy Basil growing plentifully and mixing it with pure, natural honey, and finally, the 'lifesaver', Sea Salt.

When a body is depleted of nutrients because its run down, exhausted or over stressed, it is open to infections, and this can lead to ill-health. Restoring this nutrient balance is essential for a quick and full recovery. I had been able to just click into gear with all of the therapies I've mentioned but strangely, I'd not given myself the Sea Salt. Come to the 2nd day of being 'ill', and I'd just had enough. (I do not know HOW I got through adolescence let alone childhood with the relentless barrage of sickness I experienced almost on a monthly basis)

Another dose of Rescue Remedy and more water, and while it calmed me I wanted to be 'well'. I was lying there and suddenly I noticed that the thing MOST annoying me was my 'lack of connection', my mojo was running low! I felt 'unaware'. My consciousness seemed drastically impaired and as I drifted off into a daydream I had a vision of blue crystalline structures, washing into my Mind. 'Sploooshy' waves of 'ahhhhh'. Then, 'ping!', I remembered the salt.

Over the next few hours each time I had my Holy Basil leaves and honey I also gave myself a pinch of ground up Celtic Sea Salt. Its got the highest content of minerals of all the sea salts. Within two hours I'd got a huge turnaround. This was about 3 or 4 doses of salt, taken with the other things and lots of water too...got to have water to help the body assimilate it all. I sat down to meditate/rest/re-align and had a beautiful vision of my body radiating Light from a myriad of pinpoints. As if all the Meridian junctions were lighting up!
''I tune into Love by nourishing my Self''
''I access infinite Solutions with Perfect Ease''


Our Inner Light of Knowledge is a powerful teacher. It stores all that information we have accummulated and  waits for you to connect in and access it. Crystals are used in computers to store just a fraction of what the  Mind can retain, so imagine how many 'crystals' there are inside you now! Shine like a Diamond? More like 'Blaze like the Sun'! :)) ''Flame ON!!'' :))

Tuning into Love - 018 'The Inclusion of Angels'

Some years ago I began to come out of a phase of denying myself assistance. I had been through a period of life where the negative effects of 'trying to do it all myself' were extremely evident, and I began to see that there was a heap of help out there for me to access.

One of the forms this help came in was the choice to include Angels back into my life.

My upbringing in a strict religious family had left me somewhat 'bruised' when it came to the more spiritual beings that lend us their energy. I'd been really happy communing with plants, flowers, trees (oh I love talking to TREES!), rocks, gems and the like, but then the leap I had to make with opening up to Celestial help seemed enormous. Shouldn't have been obviously, but for me, where I was 'then', it was.

During an exercise at my Holistic Feng Shui course, we were asked to simply step back and 'read' a person's energy field,...just to see if anything came up, popped in to say hello or reveal itself. I call this 'pinging' now...my special term for when the unseen is sending messages ;] The session was a revelation for me. I saw Angels. I saw ANGELS. Their Light was bright, their shape distinct and their message very, very clear. They were there, I could see them, and from now on they were going to converse.

So since then I've noticed lots of 'angelic energy' enter my life. My next daughter was named Angelina, completely not planned, but there you go... ;} I had angels come in via presents, books, pictures, people, you name it. One beautiful thing happened, ... I 'met' a good friend over the internet who is in my 'circle' of friends, and she is an Angel Intuitive. The peaceful and nourishing friendship has been an absolute life saver at times over the last three years, with life taking unexpected turns. Challenge,Solution, Growth, Progression, Expansion.
The first Christmas card of the season...we have to make do with these instead of snowflakes... ;]This one is from my beautiful healing friend Butterfly Tara of ChaiBliss.com


Think about inviting in more angelic energy into your life and see what happens. They seem to be THE agents of Synchronicity, knowing what we need when we need it, assisting with the emergencies we perceive and popping in to say hello just when we didn't expect it. They bring with them great energy, so I'm never bothered by the spontaneous company :))

''I am worthy of being assisted, loved and appreciated''
''I tune into Love by inviting assistance in all areas of my Life''

Tuning into Love - 018 'Blood so thick with Magic, it congeals...'

Ooooh, spooky title ;} but seriously,....you know that feeling at Full Moon? That awareness that every cell is pumped full to the brim and without letting that energy course through you it can make you feel kind of sleepy and sated...like a plum pie full of brandy, bloated with richness, sticky and congealing in its own sweet juices.

'Moon-rise in Winter' by Charlotte Tibbs

I think of the millions of people all over the planet, who at Full Moon lift their eyes upward and marvel at this luminous beauty in the sky,...just connecting into that wondrous feeling is exquisite. I need no cauldron :), no ritual fire (however, that is a good way of honouring our place here in the galaxy) to express my love for being here to witness this beautiful display each and every month. Whatever is happening in my life, whatever disaster I'm made aware of, or whatever gorgeous thing I've been told,...it can all be washed in with the fabric of existence each month with a little designed moon-gazing therapy.

"I tune into Love with quiet moments to honour the passage of Time"
"I tune into Love by connecting to the galaxy above me"

Love is often our feeling of wonder, of connection. It can be the romantic stirrings of things unknown, or the heartfelt joy in understanding there are magnificent forces at work to keep life on this planet available to us, and that can bring current struggles or woes into immediate clarification of perspective. Correct Perspective completely rocks... :)

Blessings

Tuning into Love - 017 'Waking to Birdsong'

Mornings should be beautiful, and the other day I woke up just after dawn and felt 'awake' and 'here', and then I heard what had woken me up...the call of birds outside. The gentle piping of birds greeting each other and greeting the new day, it just filled me with gratitude for living in a spot of the world where I couldn't hear the roar of engines, but I was witnessing this beautiful chorus of natural sounds.

Later on that day I had another visit from bird friends in the courtyard. A cheeky and lusty Wagtail wren was showing off his shiny black tail feathers and whippling and warbling away to a little brown wren nearby...she was pretty impressed too I could tell. Well who couldn't be really... They jumped and twittered around each other, him shaking his tail feathers at her in a "hey baby, look at my SHINY black feathaaaahs.." kind of way. So cute to witness this, and then they flitted off together, him shouting out his 'chit chit chitter' delight at having looked so marvelous that he had a groupie following him now ;]

http://www.juliusbergh.com/cocky/ww.html

Ah Love....aint it grand.


"I tune into Love through the wonders of the natural world around me"
"I tune into Love by noticing Beauty all around me" 


'Tuning into Love' is being a wonderful expression of what I find in my life that makes me stop and glow from my heart. Love is the highest vibrational energy, and I hope I am inspiring you to take moments in your own lives to just 'notice' what you love, even the tiniest things :) Tuning into the vibration of Love can ease stress, lower your blood pressure, improve your outlook and even relieve pain. Give it a go next time you find yourself a quiet moment, ... or a noisy one :) maybe it will be more valuable that way ;)

Love and Blessings
Jannette
