Theme for Retreat in Perú August 2024

 First explore the cause, connection, black sun.

Once we are connected, unified, then we can go to the physical exploration and

talk about how that translates into pachamama and our experience

Themes:

• exploring cause vs symptoms

• Sourcing: choosing your cause (Being a conduit for God's Grace - my new tool to trigger my connection)

• The trinity of divine feminine

• Sacred laws of creation

• The change I want to see in the world, sacred action, I want the two sacred laws of creation to be honored in this world, beginning with me.

• To live life from your heart you must first be at peace in your soul

Search for the energy

Cause vs symptom 

Humility is the path

Drop the walls of pretense and conformity 

Put your weapons down

Dream your future present

Honoring life, means honoring ALL of it. The good, the bad, and the ugly. This is the key to mastering the physical because in truly honoring ALL life, we no longer feel the need to hide and create pretense. No longer feel the need to conform. We see life, and choose death to allow renewal. This feels like a great lesson for me in this moment. I’m dealing with an agent that I do not want to honor. I want to condemn her. The more I judge her, the less of the physical I am mastering. Judgment of myself and/or others separates me from the ability to reflect authenticity into this world. Makes me a victim of the physical, not the master. I think you need to go a step beyond acceptance, and honor all, to achieve mastering. Death to allow renewal means leaving the past in the past so you can create your future in the present. No longer using the past to imprison you. Begin to use the past to inspire you to create what you want.

Things that are up to be resolved:

• Everything is already known, just not felt/seen, the challenge is most people believe because they know it, that they actually are doing it. They don't see when things are out of alignment. I can't say anything to them because they are holding on so tightly to the pretense. Fear has them trapped. They are not in humility, so no compassion, so not able to be open to see what is brought to them.

• How do we nurture humility in this world? How do we create the fertile soil to be "defenseless" and stop the judgment which makes us blind?

Preparing for the August 2024 Retreat

June 16, 2024

In preparation for the upcoming retreat, I think it is a good time to begin to shift some of the lanaguage around what we are currently working towards.  Increase our awareness on how often we tell the story that we are disconnected, afraid and alone.  

As we become more aware of what we are "thinking" and begin to check to see if what we think we are thinking is also what we are "saying" and "doing", we can begin to use the 2 Laws of Sacred Creation from the Native Americans Cosmology that was brought from Mu.  

What you are honestly thinking is what is reflected into your physical experience.  It is what you see around you in others, and it is a reflection of the thoughts you are holding.  All creation is birthed from what you are thinking.  In the darkness, we lost the honesty that is needed as the first step in all sacred creation.  As we move more into this new age of light, it requires our search focus on honesty and alignment.  

So the first challenge is for all of us to stop thinking and saying that we are disconnected.  The more we say it, the more we make it true.  Do we belief we are ever disconnected?  I don't.  

Whenever you are feeling uncomfortable, angry, conflicted, anxious, scared, alone ...

Instead of sinking into that lower vibration, think and say something like ... I did not choose to create from my connection to the divine energy of unconditional love.  Now, I will create from my connection to the divine energy of unconditional love.  

This affirms that you are always connected but in that moment did not choose to create from that connection.  

Until we are honestly choosing the cause of our creation to be that of unconditional love, then we are choosing the cause to be the absence of love (fear).   

The second challenge is to stop saying I am making progress, it's better than it was, etc.  Those are all ways we are not being honest about what we are creating from.  We don't want to be honest about it the fact that it is either love or fear.  There is no in-between.  Causation is not grey.  It is either black or it is white.  Grey comes in the coloring we choose to add in the physical.  It is not part of causation.  Anything in between black and white is an elaborate story we create to justify continuing to choose fear.  

Honesty shows us that we are either creating from love, or we are not.  That is 100% responsibility for our experience.  That is the ultimate power to be the architect of our lives.

June 23, 2024

The following is an accumulation of text "thoughts" shared with individuals and LIA text thread.  

Charles Smith:

Great opportunity for you to remember your own power and greatness.  I know who you are and what you are capable of.   You got this.  You will always do your best and that is always good enough.  Love you.  

Katherine Vega:

Love you too!

Charles Smith:

Compassion means to be WITH the suffering, not to resolve it.   Just be with her energetically and she will find her way.   

There is nothing to do but to be love and compassion.  Open up the floodgates of that beautiful energy and bring it in.  Let everything flow and take shape as it needs to.  Just anchor into the love.  There is nothing wrong.  It's happening the way it needs to happen.   Be at peace with it, as much as you can.  

Katherine Vega:

I laugh because my pretending is to resolve. 

I think I am a solver

Charles Smith:

The 'dark' understanding for compassion is to relief the suffering in the physical.   The 'light' understanding of compassion is to be with it and honor all of life.  

Your power is in who you are, not what you do.   

Katherine Vega:

This applies to all

Charles Smith:

Go into her energy and help her feel comfortable with either choice, staying or going.    Help her to feel at peace to choose when she is ready.  Be with her in her suffering and be with her in her joy.  

Absolutely!

Come into the light, and be with her suffering.  Be with the suffering of the world.  Be free to be you.  

You do not need to hide any more.  It is safe to come out and play.  

Katherine Vega:

Be with the suffering of the world just gave me chills

Charles Smith:

That is why you are here.  It is your purpose.   

Katherine Vega:

Allowing choice is huge too! 

Charles Smith:

Compassion frees us all to choose.  Without it we feel we must suffer and have no choice.  

Katherine Vega:

Ok so that thought leads to self compassion

When do I have it and when do I lose it. 

Charles Smith:

Whenever you are suffering, you lost it.   When you are in joy, you have it. 

We can always choose joy, but first we must have self compassion.  

Katherine Vega:

That is the portal to choose. This is why I feel like I can't choose at times. I have lost self compassion. 

Charles Smith:

In the end he apologized.   

Andrea Gonzalez:

Wow. You’re my hero! 

Charles Smith:

Since I was clear and honest.   I was in my power.   It gave him space to look at what was really going on.  

Andrea Gonzalez:

Ooooohh. Yes. 

I THINK something similar happened with dad but much smaller scale. 

He came to me and tried to manipulate and blame me and I said “if that’s what you want to think, that’s your choice but no that’s not my truth” and he exploded and then I just didn’t respond.  

I can’t quite be clear on it all. Because idk if I was in love because I just felt so strong “fuck u with love” you’re not going to do that to me. But idk. Is that fear love? This is where my head spins. 

-------

“ From Tribal Whispers:  "Ideally, a balance should be found between two energies, and this is what the Full Moon invites us to do. The moon is illuminated in the house of Capricorn and tells us something has been building inside of us, and now is the time when cosmos demands that we let it out but be gentle in how you release this." ”

Charles Smith:

To me, this is our universal purpose.    Balancing between two energies.   That is what we were born to do.  When we focus on that, we find unlimited possibilities of authentic expression.  Everything else is fine tuning the process as we understand more about life.  What it is, who we are, and what we want to create.   

Donna Sadler:

And we know when we are out of balance so acutely

Charles Smith:

Yes.  If we are humble enough to allow the honesty.   

If not, we pretend, rationalize and justify.   

Yes.  Humility is the path.   

In many ways, compassion is surrendering all attachment to the physical world.  It ends our suffering and allows us to flow into this new age of Aquarius.  

Honesty, equality, tranquility, and humility.   

---------

From some old notes that Donna took at one of our meetings:  

Our old law is our absence from the moment.  We become victims.  We rely on our old laws.  Our absence becomes our presence.  Compassion allows us to see clearly and to free our will.  When one becomes uncomfortable, you know you are out of alignment!  Need to un-ask the question....Must have balance and responsibility of change to be present!  Once the awareness shifts, will allow the collective to shift---that is why community is so important----we reflect the truth to each other.   One of the biggest places we hide in is in our "wrongness" -----

When we are in hell, it's because we have chosen it.  Compassion is honesty---nothing needs to shift and change!  Choose to be present rather than absent.  When one has compassion,  one is in the grace of God.  In grace, all things are clear.  All solutions are clear.  We have to take responsibility to choose our response and not judge others in exchanges we have.  Honesty is the first stop in the E in the Compassion wheel! Default in the collective is to ignore that something is here.  Honesty is in the East, Equality in the W., Tranquility in the S., and Humility in the N.  Center is compassion = Chuck!  Unity wheel is Honesty in the E (Wisdom - Intuitive), in the W is strength, in the S is Compassion (respect) adn in the N is Understanding.

Thoughts 7/1/2024

Whenever I begin to work to build, strengthen, expand, etc the masculine container of creation, it becomes very clear that this is not the most effective or efficient way to nurture change in this world.  

It seems like no matter what we do with the masculine container/creation, it just comes full circle back to the place that we began.  Nothing actually changes.  

As we get closer to the retreat, the intensity of my knowing that the focus must be on the energy of our origin and the container to hold that.  Beginning from within each of us individually and then collectively.  

My experiences are all showing me that we must be aware of the container we are holding on the feminine side and what energy we are filling it with.  

1. Clarity/Awareness/Honesty/Humility....

2.  Source/Cause....

3.  Strengthen the feminine container....

Seeing the world through the eyes of the Kausay Pacha, the living energy, increasing our awareness on how energy moves in our physical reality will help us make more aligned choices.  So we can choose the source or cause that wish to create from versus defaulting it to the collective energy around us.  

When energy is moving around us in a conflicting way to what we want to create, we have 3 choices of how to interact with the energy.  We can reflect that energy back (this is the most common, we call it a reaction, fight response), we can absorb it (becoming the victim and invoking a flight response), or we can transmute it by strengthening our feminine container and doing nothing to violate the energy we have chosen to hold there (transcend).  As long as we are clear on our container, and then fill that container with the aligned energy, that is the ultimate and only true power and that transmute everything around it, into alignment.  

-------------------

Text Conversation with Kathy as she's spending the final moments with her Mom.  

Charles Smith:

I don’t think you need to know why.   I don’t think we ever need to understand for ourselves or others.   The need to understand is what keeps us from moving.  I am not sure what is going on is physical anymore.   

The spirit and physical energies are rebalancing, naturally.   The most helpful thing is to just wrap her in a warm burrito and be with her.   

Katherine Vega:

Ok so let go of my need to understand 

Charles Smith:

You are not on this earth to fix anything.  You are on this earth to hold strong to the absolute truth of spirit so others can resolve their own energetic conflicts.  

Set her free to choose.   Support her free will and let her work through these last few things so she doesn’t take them with her.  This time now in the physical will save her from having to do this after her transition when it will be harder.  

Katherine Vega:

Just be

Charles Smith:

Be at peace and know that all is well.   

Katherine Vega:

It is hard to listen to the suffering 

I thought we were past it 

Charles Smith:

Suffering is not a bad thing.  Shift your thought on that or you will not be at peace yourself.   You can’t support anyone if you are not at peace.  

Katherine Vega:

Right ok

It is about mw

Me

Charles Smith:

Yes.   It is always about you.  

She is resolving what she can.  She is also taking a lot with her to be resolved in another way.   The suffering is a tool which helps us.  This physical world is not here to punish us or to suffer in, it is one that is defined in a way that helps us learn.  Making the suffering bad keeps us in the dark.   Seeing everything as good, accepting everything, allows us to walk in the light.  

As a rainbow warrior, you are constantly pushing against the urge to succumb to the darkness.    When you want to just surrender and remember that there is only light.   The darkness is not real.   

This is where you want to see beyond the physical.  Which is looking beyond the present.  

This is not about what we are creating.  This is about who we really are.   That transcends time and space.  

Thank you again for allowing me to be a part of this.  This is so helpful in my learning.   I am applying these truths to my current physical experience as well.

7/13/2024 Preparing for the Circle Meeting (and the retreat in August)

Eagle:

When the Eagle and the Condor fly together there will be Peace.  

All creation is birthed of Woman and do nothing to harm the child.  

Sacred creation begins with spirit and then we create a container to hold that spirit.  That is the center of our creation.  That is our 'cause'.  Then we create emotions that put that energy in motion over time and space, directed by the mind.  This is the pattern of creation that is beneath all things.  In order to keep our creation balanced, whole, we must not allow any one direction be in Command.  The commander of our experience must be in the center of the circle, aware of each of the 4 directions and holding balance among them to match the time and place of our manifestation.  

Condor:

The only thing that matters is the balance between the Apu's and Pachamama.  If there is any conflict, disease, or challenge to our peace, it is that we have allowed the experience to go out of balance.  Healing (wholeness) is always about first bringing balance back.  All of their ceremonies are related to bringing balance back between the Apu's and Pachamama.  We must bring balance back between within ourselves between our absolute spiritual nature and our relative physical experience.  

Sami is ordered energy.  Hucha is free energy (no container).  Balance is ordering the energy.  

**** We all yearn to feel loved and safe.  Feeling love is recognition of our everpresent connection to  spirit (unconditional).  Feeling safe is the container that we build around the energy and then protect as we walk this earthly walk.  

Hermandad Solar:

The path back to Inti (inner sun) is humility.  Man only paid attention / to the symptoms of the diseases we are experiencing, / he did not worry about the causes, / now we investigate / the true nature of things.  / Why? ... / To know and live, / universal harmony!

Pachamama

When you say you are preparing to share about Pachamama  at the retreat, are you talking about the element of the earth (fire, earth, water, and air), or are you talking about Pachamama as the visible portion of our life on this planet?  

To me the element of earth, and Pachamama, are different but I think most people think of Pachamama as being one of the 4 elements (building blocks) of our planet.  I think the real meaning of Pachamama has gotten lost in the age of Pisces as many things have also gotten lost.  

It helps me to think in terms of the sacred geometry and sacred mathematics beginning with the symbol of the solar brotherhood.  The symbol contains 0 (the circle), 1 (point in center), 2 (split between the triangle and the square), 3 (the triangle), and 4 (the square).  This symbol is the core of the wisdom of Mu that was given to the solar brotherhood to keep.  This is the key to Life, in it's simplest form.  This came directly from Mu and I believe understanding this symbol will help us return to Mu.  

This "sacred" sequence (0, 1, 2, 3, 4) is what we are going back to as we move into the Age of Aquarius and head back to our origin.  During the age of Pisces (and we are still holding this consciousness) we created backwards and the sequence was 4, 3, 2, 1, 0.  We would begin our creation with defining the outcome (physical) and then try to connect the energy to the outcome.   

In the age of Aquarius, we are shifting to begin with the energy (the black sun) and then allowing the outcome to be defined based on the time and place in which we are creating.  In that way, our creations are ALWAYS a full reflection of the Black Sun.  The light is not diminished in any way.  

Understanding the square has been the focus for so long for so many people.  This focus keeps us looking at the symptoms and distracts us from exploring the true cause.  The square are the symptoms.  The triangle is the true cause.  

If we wish to begin exploring the true cause as is talked about in the sacred fire ceremony, we must begin to explore the triangle.  

"Man only paid attention / to the symptoms we are experiencing, / he did not worry about the causes, / now we investigate / the true nature of things.  / Why? ... / To know and live, / universal harmony!"

My view of Pachamama is as one of the points on the triangle. The Apu's are another point. The mind of humanity is the third point. When shamans do healing in the Andes, they are focusing on bringing balance between Pachamama and the Apu's, through the mind. Their offerings and ceremonies are all about establishing a balance between the two before creating from the 4 elements. They go back to cause. It doesn't matter what the symptom is, the healing is achieved by bringing balance back between Pachamama and the Apu's. This then opens up the point and allows the energy of the black sun to flow into this world through whatever we create.

It is time to begin exploring the true nature, the true cause of our existence and of our creation.  It is time to explore the trinity of energies that we balance to form the triangle as the solid foundation for all the "squares" that we create.  Why?  To know and live in universal harmony as we did in Mu.  

At this time we have forgotten the importance of the Triangle, and the only thing that humanity values is the Square.  That is what causes conflict across the world.  

I would love to being exploring Pachamama, the Apu's and the mind of humanity that holds balance (or not) between the two.  I don't think further exploration of the 4 elements is helpful for the path any longer.  I think we must go to the cause and explore the trinity, the triangle of energy that is the true cause of all existence.  

The element "earth" is the container that is created to give form for the energy to flow into.  Understanding how the 4 elements fit into the creation process is important, but if we don't master the energy first, then we will stay in the age of Pisces.  

I don't know if any of this will be helpful for the retreat but I do look forward to sharing thoughts on this in August.  

Much love....

Everything In Our Physical Reality is Held in the Mental Plane

The philosophy of Idealism was reported to have been founded by Plato in ancient Greece. This philosophy was an evolution and expansion of some of the ideas found in the 7 Hermetic Principles that were attributed to the Egyptians, specifically to Hermes. These principles were published by the Masonic Temple in a book called the Kybalion. 

When the first branch of wisdom left Mu, it went to Peru, then to Egypt, and then to Europe. The wisdom then evolve more and more as it traveled further from Mu. Everything began in Mu, so everything, everywhere has evolved from Mu. The challenge is that as things have evolved. they have gotten more and more complex and many times the energy may be lost. The evolution is relative to the time and place in which the evolution occurs so it may not seem to be "correct" when looked at from a different perspective (time and place). 

These idealist philosophies are relative to the time and place they occur. I find that Hermetic Principles from Egypt, as told by the Masonic Temple, to be simpler and more aligned with how things were in Mu. More absolute and less relative.  They are still very difficult for most people to understand or put into practice. 

 I've attached a copy of the Kybalion in Spanish if you want to take a quick look. They are also influenced heavily by the perspective of the time and place that the three initiates wrote them down for the Masonic Temple. As with all of this spiritual occult knowledge in all the different secret schools, they have become blended and influenced over time by all the other schools. I found this to be equally true within the solar brotherhood. 

 It is exciting and fun for me to explore all these different concepts, but all of these evolutions don't feel like they will help us on this part of our journey. It is important for us now to trace back these principles to the very basic truths that were birthed in Mu. It is only there that we will find a universal language that can help to unite everyone together. I am happy to explore all of these concepts with you, if you wish, but I am not sure we need them for our journey for humanity. More just for our personal enjoyment. 

The simplicity is what we need. The path you are already on is a good one. It is about the energy first. Involving all of these evolutions back to the source energy from whence they began. Channeling all that energy into this world so that it can be felt by everyone. That is what brought me to Samana Wasi. Searching for the origin of the energy so we can find the true cause of our existence. It is only by reconnecting ourselves to this energy that we can move into this new golden age of light, the age of Aquarius. As that energy strengthens, more and more people will feel it and connect into it, and growing it even more. 

You and I already hold this pure unconditional love within our physical bodies and channel it into this world. Together we can open up that portal even larger. Yes, all of our existence in this world is held in the mental plane. It is within this greater mind that the container is formed and held for the energy to flow into. The form holds much less of the energy now, as we emerge from the age of darkness, so it is time to recharge that battery once again and renew our world anchored in this beautiful unconditional love that is the black sun. 

It helps me to know that the Pleiadeans are the ones holding the container of energy of our world in relation to time and that the Sirians are holding the container of energy of our world in relation to space. Each adding another dimension to our experience here. I hope this is something that inspires you in some way. There is just so much that I can talk about. Take a look at the Kybalion and after reading this email, let me know if there is anything you would like me to expand on. I'll try to send you an email tomorrow about Pachamama. Much love to you dear sister....

Ending the Madness

 It is my mission to bear witness and see the madness.  Then embrace the madness to bring out the beauty within.  The madness does not need to be changed.  If I feel it does, then I add to the madness.  

The madness needs to be seen, and then the beauty within brought forward and illuminated in the light of honesty, of truth.  Only I need to see it and know it, which makes it available in the greater collective.  No one else needs to see what I know.  Nothing needs to change, but the paradox is that it will change.  It cannot remain the same once it has been brought into the light.  

I have the gift of strength in addition to my gift of clarity.  My will is strong and I can hold stubbornly to the beauty despite the madness reflected in the earthly realm.  I can bring that beauty forward into this world for all to see.  Beauty always exists even if most people are not able to see it.  It is always there at the core of all things, of all people, of all places.  

I can heal the collective even if the individual that comes to me is not ready to release their madness.  Everyone that comes into my experience, comes to me, for me to heal the collective aspects of their madness, not for me to heal them individually.  That is still their choice.  I am to see the individual madness and heal it within the collective consciousness and release the individual from any judgment.  In order for them to be free to choose, when the time is right.   

My energetic intensity is connected to another healing realm where the hidden ones are waiting to help me.  This is the Merlin lineage.  This is the Merkabah.

I refuse to wear the cloak and disguise anymore that allows me not to be seen, and to blend in with humanity.  That cloak of judgment that breeds hate and fear, is too heavy a cross to bear.  Pretense and conformity are no longer tools I wish to wield.  Love and compassion are my new tools.  

Sacred Action - Mission/Vision

To honor the sacredness of life both individually and collectively, we must measure our learning not by the physical shape it assumes, but by the unity it fosters in all things, and all experiences.  Our accountability to the sacredness of all life engenders both individual and collective unity simultaneously.  This unity in turn sparks the desire to perform Sacred Service, programs that will support our own learning and that of others, building unity for all.  We achieve reciprocity with the sacredness of life by surrendering our attachment to our old stories and embracing the new stories that are possible when our choices are in alignment with our authentic selves. 

We are supporting and nurturing the unification of the individuals’ physical experience with their expression of their authentic self, through the reflection provided by our collective experience of community.  

The simple vision is UNITY.  The simple container holding the energy is UNITY.  So if ever there is doubt or fear, look for how the experience you are creating, can foster unity individually and collectively.  Remember the purpose of the VISION is to remind us of what we are moving towards.  It is our destination.  

When our backbone disappears and we begin to stagnate and suffer, it is because we have lost the connection of our authentic selves to the experiences we are creating (the decisions being made are being made relative to the physical world, which is temporary, and not against the container of UNITY, which is a reflection of spirit and is absolute).  

When we struggle to create as a group, the group has lost the focus of UNITY, and compassion has been lost (the decisions being made are being made relative to the physical world, which is temporary, and not against the container of UNITY, which is a reflection of spirit and is absolute).  

UNITY is living our Life in Alignment.  It is the unification of our twin-ness.  It is the honoring and balancing of the masculine and feminine aspects of life within us, and outside of us concurrently.  

Celestial Hearts nurtures the understanding of UNITY through compassionate accountability to the creation of UNITY in all of our experiences, both individual and collective.   

Unity of the individual, Unity of the family, Unity of the group, Unity of the community....Unity of  all Humanity.  

 

It is important to remember that this is not a linear progression, yet one that progresses both linearly and circularly simultaneously.  We learn in both sides of our twin-ness and bring the learning from one side, back to the other, and vice versa, over and over and over again.  

We cannot understand ourselves, without understanding the collective.  We cannot understand the collective until we understand ourselves.  

Within Sacred Action will be many physical manifestations that will all reflect UNITY. 

Inner Balance

 The Circle of Law - The Wheel of Inner Balance

“For anything in the physical world is already history. That is divine paradox at its best. It took me a long time to realize that mystical truth. To truly grasp that the stuff of the physical world is really over. It's the end product of our choices, not the beginning.” ❤️ Caroline Myss

When we begin to create, we start with the pure energy, and we build a container around it.  We begin whole, perfect and complete.  

The spark of our contrary, severs connection to the old creation and begins a new one.  You can't start something new until you let the old die.  

Once you have the container around the energy you want to express, you are done with the feminine side of creation.   

Nothing is in physical form yet.  

Then you look for different puzzle pieces of possible expression in the physical, begin moving energy through and into them and see if it fits.  

At the end of the masculine side of creation, the physical form appears.  

At that point, life stops. 

Life is the period of time during which creation happens.  

Once complete, it is dead and superfluous.  

And correct, what particular puzzle doesn't matter, only that it contains the energy you want to express.  

So feminine is first sacred law, masculine is second sacred law.  

The details don't matter.  

Correct.  The sacred masculine brings us joy by completing the expression.  

Suffering is the time we spend holding on to the creation, thinking that it is still alive, versus letting it die and continuing to live.  

Questioned “Once you have the container around the energy you want to express, you are done with the feminine side of creation.   ” Andrea

Yes.  Then the masculine ego takes over to protect the child.  

Life is the wholeness of both.  

The first step of creation acknowledges the death in the present, to create the past, which allows the future that you are dreaming to be birthed.  

What can help us is to really understand the power of death to bring alignment and joy into our lives.  

We have a belief, a mindset, that when things begin to die that we get scared.  We become uncomfortable and try to stop the death.   We feel as if the peace we have achieved is being threatened.  

When actually our refusal to embrace death, threatens our dreams from becoming reality.  

We must be willing to sail into the turbulent waters to find the learning, growth, and change that is life.  

If we fight or resist, we suffer.  If we surrender to death, we are reborn and rise from the ashes.  

This is the essence of the circle or law, sacred creation and the balancing of mind(s).  

---------   

If we are looking to balance the mind, then we must take a moment to understand balance as it relates to the circle of law.  

We as a collective are trying to create balance, find balance, and peace with the way things are. 
So our focus is always working to achieve balance.  When we think we have achieved it (all our ducks are in a row), then we become very protective of trying to keep everything balanced.  If anything threatens the balance, we judge it as being wrong.  So our mind, the masculine, the ego protects the dead physical manifestation.  When doing that, we are creating in the dark.  Not allowing light in, we are dead, no longer living.  We are trying to breathe life into something that is dead.  It can not be done.  Life is not resurrected, it is renewed.  

If we understand that it is the essence and not the form that we need to protect, then we can create in the light, and live, move, change, learn, and expand.  Life is about constantly expanding.  When we stop expanding, then we stop living.  We are dead, temporarily, until we can choose to begin expanding again.   

Feeling Conflicted

 When feeling conflicted, recognized that you’ve split internally, and back up.   Remind yourself that unity is what’s important and that those around you will work with you to resolve the split.  

Remind yourself of what you want to protect (trust/connection) and defend it against any attack from inside or out.   (2 sacred laws).

Sweetgrass

The elders tell us that it takes longer for us to heal today and the reason is because the old trails our ancestors used to use to find us have been destroyed....so now our ancestors are having a hard time finding us to help us heal.

We are also told that was the first plant to grow on Mother Earth

When we harvest Sweetgrass,we get three bunches of seven strands

So there will be 21 pieces of grass,,

We do not pull it, this is the hair of Mother Earth.

We braid the three strands of seven pieces right there on Mother Earth 

Then we gently cut it

 If we want to state our intentions,, we can bring tobacco as to bring Creator in on our words as to how we will use this

  For an offering we can offer something the plant can use,, like water,

So offer the relations around it, it’s brothers and sisters,mother and father

And so on,give them a gift of water.

When we burn sweetgrass, remember these things:

Its a kindness medicine...with a sweet gentle aroma when we light it.

Its symbolic...

There are 21 strands used to make a braid...

The first 7 strands represent those 7 generations behind us~

Our parents

Our grandparents

Our great grandparents and so on for

7 generations behind us~who we are and what we are is because of them~they've brushed and made the trails we have been walking up til now...but the trails have been destroyed, we have lost our connection.

The time has come to heal and reconnect with our ancestors. 

The next 7 represent the 7 sacred teachings...

Love, Respect, Honesty, Courage, Wisdom, Truth and Humility.

The elders tell us how simple, powerful and beautiful the teaching are:

1 Love: unconditional affection with no limits or conditions that starts with loving yourself.

2 Respect:  due regard for the feelings, wishes, rights or traditions of other, with consideration, thoughtfulness, attentiveness, politeness, courtesy, civility, deference.

3 Honestly:  have a character of integrity, and honor be free from fraud or deception, legitimate truthful.

4 Courage:  bravery, permitting one to face extreme dangers with boldness withstanding danger, fear or difficulty 

5 Wisdom:  the quality of having experience, knowledge and good judgment the quality of being wise.

6 Truth:  the face of the matter, veracity, sincere, candor and genuineness 

a determined in principle entirely by how it relates to things

7 Humility:  freedom from pride or arrogance, being humble, when we truly understand the teaching of humility, that we are not any better then anyone else and you are not any better then me. that at the end of the day we are simply human beings, this is what makes this teaching powerful and beautiful.

The last 7 strands are those of the 7 generations in front of us~

Our children .....

Our grandchildren .....

Our great grandchildren .....

as well as those children yet to be born.

It is important because everything we do to Mother earth will one day effect them... We have lost our way, Mother Earth gives us everything we need to heal ourselves and the earth.  We must go back to our roots and bloom.

Path of the Gold Horse

 There is nothing in the way.  

I have chosen this path.  This path makes me happy.  

The path of the Gold horse - Opening the portal.  

Everything I do with the circle is a reflection of my choices on my path.  100% the effect of my catalyst/choice. I invite others within the circle to choose for themselves freely and to reap the joy.  

Release all need to conform, all pretense, and all fear. 

It is time for peace, joy, and universal harmony.  The coming together in spirit, adding the flavor of the physical, on our journey home.   

Reduce reliance on tools, build reliance on self.  Self soothing, self satisfying, self validating.  

2020 is the year to free the will, so the choice of 2021 will be a clear reflection of our inner God-like nature.    

Free the will through: 

• understanding the role of will in creation

• understanding the two types of will

• becoming aware of when you are using which type of will

• beginning to shift to a conscious, aligned way of creating whenever possible

2021 is the year to begin creating together.  The foundation for creating together is Compassion (Honesty, Equality, Tranquility, and Humility) and Unity (Wisdom, Strength, Compassion, Understanding).

Compassion frees the will.  Judgment binds the will. 

The Circle of Law will be important once the foundation is set in the next cycle (2021-2024).  

The Trinity of the Horse Race:

Dec 21, 2012 to Dec 20, 2016:  Unwinding (undoing) of making the physical most important

Dec 21, 2016 to Dec 20, 2020:  Winding (doing) of making the spiritual most important

Dec 21, 2020 to Dec 20, 2024:  Laying the foundation to make both the physical and the spiritual both equally important, but the sequence of creation being Spiritual first, then Physical.  

The foundation that we lay in the third cycle of the trinity will be using a spiritual measure as the beginning of the creation process, instead of a physical measure.  

Rainbow Warriors or Soldiers of Light (or whatever we want to call ourselves) are marching forward through aligned creation, the more we create aligned with life, the wider the portal becomes.  

Mechanical will is always triggered when judgment energy is felt.  Judgment energy (ours or anyone else’s) will immediately trigger us into the mechanical will (old pattern) unless we consciously stop it.  

Conscious will is always inspired when compassion energy is felt.  Compassion energy (ours or anyone else’s) naturally activates Conscious Will.  

Embrace the sameness and stand in wonder of the differences we see around us.  

Seeing the interconnectedness of life allows us to hold compassion and vice-a-versa, holding compassion allows us to see the interconnectedness of life.  

With compassion, we travel the energetic grid of life.  All paths are open, will is free, joy abounds, and creation is energy efficient.  

The Reason I Judge Others

The reason I judge others, and always look for what’s wrong, is that I am afraid I won’t be able to do the right thing if others don’t do the right thing.  Still afraid of opinions of others and fear that I am a victim and that being myself isn’t enough or accepted.   

I react when my expectations aren’t met because I am afraid I won’t be able to perform to fictitious outside expectations.   

Shift the paradigm and the consciousness goes with it.    The effect shifts to reflect the consciousness.   

It allows me to create easily and effortlessly.

What Triggers Me

 If I were to look at the root cause of what triggers me into fear, into my old law, it is always when the balance and peace that I have established looks like it is threatened.  

This highlights my attachment to having things “Right”, versus attaching to being a good sailor and being able to sail through any type of weather.  That shifts my measure and also gives me complete control over my experience which is what we are trying to do.  

Trying to have control of the physical isn’t possible and physical is getting less and less stable.  This undermines our confidence, our backbone, our strength and we give our power away.  

I am changing my measure to be focused on my ability to sail, so that I can actually become a thrill seeker and sail into the storm in order to get better and better at sailing.  

Sailing is the metaphor for honoring the 2 sacred laws of creation.

Turning of the Square

When we have a circle, we have four directions.  Each direction represents an element of our creation.  When we turn the square we are able to see the center, the truth from a different view, from another direction which allows us to create in balance.  When we walk the wheel and create in the mind, in balance, we start in the east, from spirit and use the perspective of spirit to begin to form our creation.  Then we turn the square and look at things from the West, from the perspective of the body, the container.  Then we turn the square and look at things from the south, from the perspective of emotion (energy in motion) as we determine what direction we want to point the energy as we begin to put it into motion.  Then we turn the square to the fourth direction, the north and we look at things from the perspective of the mind to put the finishing touches on our creation, the completion, the understanding and the honor of the balancing of all four.

 

pectA turn of the square is a bold move ( that illuminates the honesty (keeps us present) so that we build the honor of all perspectives so we can hold our creation in balance.  

 

It gives us a fresh perspective and breaks the judgment/fear that may threaten our balance.

 

4 turns completes the creation.

 

The completion is the sacred number 5, The balanced creation.  The perfect child.

 

There are many metaphors here.  Another is that in order to turn a square (into a circle) you must shave off the points.  Each time you honor one of the 4 perspectives in the story, you shave off a corner and are making the unified circle.

 

In the physical, we see things from one of the 4 perspectives.  In Spirit we see things from all of the 4 perspectives so it has soft edges, not hard ones.

 

Each of the points of the square represents the potential for us to be in fear and not love.  Making something right and something wrong.  As we turn the square we shave off the places for fear to hide in the corners and find ourselves to be closer to the grace of god, allowing us to be, without needing to do.
