Transforming Energies for May 5, 2010

The light in me greets the light in you!

All is being aligned.  The energy is calm within yet anxiety can be felt outside surrounding us.

There is so much to say, but where to start?  Today I believe we will begin where I found myself recently.  I was very blessed to be invited to a dear friend's wedding in Maryland this past weekend.   To witness such a beautiful event of shared love is indeed breathtaking.  Denise is the daughter of my dearest friend, Diane in Maryland.  Diane has been a special friend, mentor, teacher, and inner child playmate (I love her tinkling laughter in our conversations!) for many years.  I was pleasantly surprised, being the mother of the bride with the impending nuptials on the morrow, that she found time to graciously guided me to her back yard for some quite one-on-one time when I arrived.  No matter what needed to be done the lesson here for me is there is always time to greet a friend and chat. (We can "create time" when we need to now, have you tried it?) To be in her presence once again, surrounded by her angelic glow allowed my own light to safely shimmer out and shine brightly.  Ah... I felt so at home!

This summer is going to be a very busy time for many (myself included - more on that) and so Bruce and I decided to take a mini vacation to Ocean City, MD after the wedding in Bell Air.  The planning of this trip was several months ago.  Being the Google gal that I am I searched for several weeks for just the right place to stay at the right price.  Infinite Spirit definitely provided very well for us as the area and accommodations where exceptional! 

One peculiar thing about my energy, I really don't "feel" energy strongly while at the ocean.  I have noticed it before, never really put my finger on it as to why, yet I just feel cocooned in a soft nurturing bubble.  A friend called while I was at the ocean and was talking about the energies.  I expressed my concern about not "feeling" anything and that is when we discovered together the neutralizing effect of the ocean on me.  Ah... I must say it was nice for a time to step away from all that I feel and sense and just "be" for a spell. 

As I sat and watched the ocean waves thunder into the shore I was reminded of change.  I have often talked about change and will continue to do so as we are all rapidly going through many changes.  Like each wave that changes the pattern of sand as it recedes, so does the energetic waves we experience change us forever.  Looking out over the ocean you can see a constant activity of waves rising up and riding inward.  Though we may crave calm tranquil waters, it is this motion that allows old patterns and issues to be washed away and cleared.  The energetic waves then create space for something new to enter, something more fulfilling, and it allows the necessary space needed for expansion of self.  How else are we to evolve?  Does the sand squeal, "Oh no! Another wave! No!"?  Or does the sand embrace the wave, releasing to the current, willing to be taken and shaped into its next stage?  What type of sand are you?  Could you be the type that releases fear of the unknown and enjoy what is happening this very moment?

As for me, you may know I have many changes coming quickly.  We all have choice right now.  We can pick our own direction and "dream a new dream" of how we wish our life to be.  I do however caution to not solidify that "new dream" to the extent it doesn't have room to breathe and grow.  It is human nature to set our sights on one outcome and be so focused that we may miss some of life's adventures that  may lead us in a totally different fulfilling direction. 

With the changes coming on the horizon for me, (my youngest is graduating and moving on and I am going to re-marry next year) I have spent time quietly talking to Spirit (God) and asking for guidance as to the next step to take.  I wish to mesh all aspects of my life which include personal growth, relationships, and my service to God and other light workers. ( I digress for a moment to my new readers that have expressed they don't understand certain terminology in my writings.  A light worker is one who has chosen to heal self through their personal journey  of self awareness and mastery then reaching out to others on their path giving assistance which is all done to bring balance and harmony to earth. )  There is no set way to do this.  Just follow your heart and listen to the God within.

My question of late with all these time consuming changes coming quickly, is should I still teach or has that era of my life ended.  I do so love to teach Reiki and holistic classes to others.  I love sharing their experiences, watching them grow and become who they shall become.  I pictured a world of never teaching again and felt an empty spot in my heart.  Yes, I really would miss teaching.  Yet if that phase of my life has ended I know that I must gracefully move forward without resisting.    In my little chat with God I asked him to direct me.  When I came back from my vacation I found wonderful encouraging emails and it does appear that I will continue teaching!  What a gift has been given to me!

I find myself going in so many directions it is hard to concentrate on which one to walk towards.  As with anything if you are willing to release, you shall see the perfect alignment of each step.  It seems at least for now I am giving guidance to dabble a little here and there beginning and continuing projects.  It feels like a new form of multi-tasking, that ancient gift we seemed to all had at one point, yet as of late could no longer do.  The exception is that instead of working on multiple projects at once, you work on a little piece, let it go while a different project comes in to be worked on.  Perhaps it is taking life by little "chunks" instead of diving into the entire cake!  Ooops!  Do ya think that involves that "p" word? (patience!)

Our life right now is changing so rapidly that even the changes don't stay for long until we are releasing and changing again.  It is like having a great big puzzle to put together.  Perhaps we can't wait to see the entire picture so we eagerly dive into the pieces searching for matches.  We concentrate on one specific area carefully matching pieces and attaching them.  Then we come to a point that we can no longer find anymore pieces to match yet we know the picture is not complete.  It is at that point we move onto a different area of our puzzle and start to piece together what we can.  We may move along to several different areas of the puzzle placing together what we can, then going back to the original section knowing all along that eventually all pieces will fit firmly in place and we will indeed experience the beauty of completion.

Finding a balance of work, play, creativity and rest is most important right now.   I have found the communication doors opening and old friends popping in to say hello.  Some are friendships that I had to let go of and it was oh so hard to do that.  Yet though I enjoyed the recent communication I realized that things really haven't changed and that "closeness" I once felt may never be felt again.  And that is ok.  Allowing others to be who they are while you continue your journey is one of our current lessons.   I still find myself not being able to stand loud noises or even music for any length of time.  The longer I am subjected to it, the angrier I become.  It brings disharmony to my system.  The same goes for being around being who are disharmonic.

One last comment and that is on facing our fears head on and releasing their hold on us.  This may not seem easy yet I know you can do it.  Another friend who lost her job has some work compensation issues to deal with.  Nothing major yet when she receives letters from her ex-employment or lawyers they instantly bring a quick sense of panic to her.  She is very evolved and can release the energy quickly yet she asked how she could not be so affected.  I too went through a similar thing only it was receiving communication from my "ex" and it usually it wasn't nice.  I learned that when I received mail from him, I would leave it on the counter top and not even touch it.  As I would walk past it I would breathe out the energy of fear and remember that I am always divinely protected and that I could no longer be harmed.  (back to the "God is stronger than this person" manta.) I would clear my energy until I was able to pick it up.  I had to face the fear, allow it to swell in me, dig through it to find what I was really afraid of, look that beast in the eye before I could release it totally.  You can do this to with what ever fear you may be presented with.  You are always divinely protected in all ways and no one can ever harm you. 

Much love to you all and may you always remember your radiance!  Vickie
