Winter Solstice 2012; what is ending, what is beginning?

Happy Solstice!

 

I wanted to make sure and get this post out before the world ended… Oh wait just kidding. I don’t actually believe the world will end 12/21/2012, but I do know that there are a lot of people who are entertaining the idea that it just might. I also know that the energy has been intense enough that it’s really very obvious that something IS actually going on.

 

This is the time in the northern hemisphere where the days are short and the nights are long. It is the darkest night, from which the light of the New is born. It is a time of cycles beginning and ending. It is a time of power and wonder, and wisdom and promise. It is also a time that calls for a deep faith and trust; trust that the light will return and that it will not all be endless night. These are the things our ancestors confronted at this time of year, and it is to a great degree what we are still asking ourselves; especially this year.

Let me address the idea of the world ending, just because it ends up being the “elephant in the room” when dealing with spiritual matters in the later part of 2012, especially in December. I believe that our worlds begin and end several times each day, and most certainly when we go to sleep for the evening and wake again each morning.

The fact that we wake to anything like the semblance of what has gone before, is a testament to our tenacious power of focus and our ability to hold energy in place through belief. This can be a really good thing! It helps to know that when you wake up from a particularly disturbing dream that you will arrive safely in your bed once you open your eyes. ( I must say however, that I am not quite as pleased when I wake from a dream of winning the lottery…ahem…but it’s all part of that belief system, and having a dream of something pleasant says to me that at the very least I am entertaining the idea of it energetically.)

But I digress. In any case it’s nice to know that gravity is basically going to work more or less when you step onto the floor. Our lives are a series of events each moving on to the next and each one changing the world as we know it and creating a new world. It’s why free will is such a powerful idea and experience. And even though there are things that happen that if you were to ask me directly I would say a resounding “No way” to, they do sometimes take place; and even if I do not always know the answer to the question of “why?” in the moment; I am still left with my ability to exercise my free will in the area of “where am I going to place my focus now?”.

So I ask you the question. Where are you focused? And how does that affect you in your new ever-ending ever-beginning world? Is this the darkness from which the New light will be born?

Are you noticing that we are in a world of shifting sands and so are focusing on your grounding and meditation so you can breathe more freely? Are you in an ocean of turbulent seas desperately treading water hoping the waves don’t get any higher? Are you grieving a loss? Are you celebrating a new life? Are you avoiding all media in general in order to mitigate the onslaught of information and imagery that continues to be distributed? Are you secretly hoping that the world does end on the 21st so that you don’t have to finish your Christmas shopping? 🙂

Where is your attention? Is it serving you? Is it serving the world? What would you change if you knew that your focus strongly effected the mix of what was happening in your life, on an emotional, mental, physical and spiritual level? Perhaps you already know that and still find yourself focused in ways that seem less than ideal.

If that is so, welcome to the club, and welcome also to the continuing opportunity to gradually but consistently choose to steer your own personal course in the direction of strengthening the kind of world in which you would like to live. What if 12/21/12 was the end of the world, what “world” would you have end, what would you leave behind; and more importantly what “world” would you create in its place?

We are in the middle of an influx of energy; it is tangible and sometimes hard to navigate. It is effecting all of us on the planet in different ways. No it’s not just your imagination, or maybe it is so perhaps it’s time to start paying attention to where your imagination gets to play.

I had a yoga teacher that had a practice of suggesting that we say to ourselves every evening before bed “I am going to wake up tomorrow and know that in the night miraculous things will have happened and I am waking up in a world more full of grace than the one I am going to sleep in this evening; and that these new miracles will be revealed to me all through the day.”

Sounds like a good plan to me. 🙂

Happy Solstice! Welcome the Light, in all its forms. So mote it be, and So it is.

Aloha and Blessings,
Erika

 

 

Subject: World Wide Energetic Clearing…November 27th

20121125-204427.jpg

I just received this from a friend; thought it was worth passing on.

=============================

Subject: World Wide Energetic Clearing…

Good Morning Everyone,
We are coming together to make a difference in Our World and The World
Next Tuesday, November 27th, we will be joining others around the planet for:

“World Wide Energetic Clearing.
I would like to ask you to participate in an awesome event.

The following comes from John English and DreamtimeOnLine.com. and it explains the everything. This will only take a minimal amount time and will be incredibly powerful.

Worldwide Energetic Clearing

Hello and Bless You,

I believe that the human being is a magical being of the universe with a very important destiny to fulfill.

I have felt for sometime now that humanity is at a point where we are going to evolve on many levels to live that destiny. I look around and I see that we have created a scenario where we must evolve to solve the challenges we have collectively created.

I believe we will do so.

I am asking you to join many others and myself on November 27th 2012 in a worldwide energetic clearing to make it easier for us to heal, and for this evolutionary leap to take place.

One of my teachers taught me that energy organizes matter. I have found this to be very powerful and true. As a human being you have the right to remove any energy that is negatively impacting you against your free will.

This clearing will take place with the following command. I have included a glossary of terms.

Please do this early morning, mid-afternoon and early evening on November 27th 2012 wherever you are located on this beautiful planet.

“It is by Intent and Purpose Spirit of (Your Full Name Here), with the help of the Universal Life Force Essence, that we will immediately provide any and all matching frequencies required to zero out all negativity that is impacting me now in all times, all forms, and all dimensions, paying particular attention to all negativity that is in and on the earth. This will include my personal energy field.

Further should it be determined by my higher self that any of these frequencies of negativity should not be zeroed out, we ask that the Universal Life Force Essence dispose of them as it sees fit, including returning them to the great void of creation. Begin harmonics now.”

Wait three minutes and then give thanks with the following statement of gratitude.
“I believe, I receive, I accept this healing. Thank You, Thank You, Thank You.”

Can you imagine The Shift on this earth that will take place if millions of us use this command on the same day? It’s going to be life altering! ☺ Please forward if you feel moved to do so.

Namaste,
John English

Thank you for reading. If you don’t get this message in time, feel free to do what they suggest at any time. I know all Good blesses, so go for it!

Aloha and blessings,

Venus retrograde and Venus conjunction 2012; bring on the gold energy.

Erika Ginnis

Faith and TrustLots going on as we have been seeing and hearing over the airways. Energy at really high levels; effecting people in many different ways; not all of which have been useful. Plus Venus; planet of love and beauty and grace, is retrograde for 6 weeks (we all feel the transit for a bit longer just due to the time it takes for things to slow down or then speed back up). I have written about this before (by the light of an old flame) although it was a different energy then and different signs were involved. What is still true is that when Venus goes retrograde it can feel as if a gray screen is placed over life.

This is not set in stone, so if you are having a grand time then please party on! You may if you wish just skip down to the meditation at the end of this post; which is for everyone no matter how much or how little fun you are having with this transit.

Having said all that; I know of many people who have been asking me “what is happening??? I feel yucky when will it end?” and so I write some of this next part for you.

You are NOT losing your mind. The energy IS really intense, and with Venus retrograde there IS the potential of feeling lack luster, or like you aren’t attractive or never were :); it’s possible that you may find yourself with a tendency to be self critical…or other critical. It’s hard to see value with this transit. Things that look good now may not look good in a little while, our sense of esthetics gets all messed up (maybe wait to do that daring new hair style after the transits are a little better suited for beauty LOL). We can lose hope or feel things are moving backwards. This isn’t essential but if it is happening just remember THIS TOO SHALL PASS.

Truly this happens every year and a half for 6 weeks and if you know what’s up you can have a better time and perhaps not let it get to you quite so much. This current retrograde started May 15th 2012 and continues until June 27th 2012.

Another hallmark for this transit is the entrance back into your life of people from your past. It’s time to look back over old relationships, and often people who you have not seen or thought of will contact you. I had the wonderful experience of having someone get in touch with me from my HS days. I adore him and it was so nice to have contact again, so not all of Venus retrograde has to be “bad”… quite the contrary; it can be really nice.

I have also heard that what you were dealing with around the last time Venus went retrograde you may revisit and experience some completion with regards to it.

Something that is always true but not always commented on; is that Venus retrograde is always sandwiched between two Mercury retrogrades; there is a little breathing room between them but not a lot, just due to how retrogrades fall. So I think this is another thing that can makes it all feel so fricking long. One thing to remember is that mercury retrograde is more mechanical in nature (and that can mean the mechanics of communication of course), but Venus retrograde seems to effect the heart and the emotions and so they are really two different feeling transits.

Things to do during this transit?

  • Visit with your newly re-discovered friends.
  • Take time for self care and make it a habit to say nice things to yourself daily.
  • Remind yourself that your perception of a thing really creates a large part of that thing; so pay attention to how you are viewing things.
  • Take the time to complete relationship issues you swept under the rug a year and a half ago.
  • Meditate.
  • learn and practice grounding.
  • Give yourself (and others) some slack.

What to avoid if you can?

  • Making drastic changes in your appearance 🙂
  • Big ticket items as an impulse buy.
  • Redecorating your home on a whim.
  • Making major commitments.
  • Buying a house.
  • planning a wedding.

Now onto the other thing involved with this transit. The passing of Venus over the Sun.

Venus is conjunct with both the sun and the galactic center on Tuesday, and Venus will pass in front of the sun and we here in Hawaii will definitely be able to see it.

The energy (as it has been explained to me) will be coming from the center of our galaxy (reminds one of the center of the earth where we ground into, doesn’t it?) and flowing through the sun and through Venus right onto us on planet Earth. The Sun, Venus and Mercury are all in the sign of Gemini right now.

This is a tremendous amount of energy directed at us; it is one of the reasons some people are having such a hard time right now; especially if they don’t have a way to ground off the excess energy. The good thing about “lotsa energy” is that it can be directed, and it can assist in the manifestation of dreams and visions.

I almost didn’t do a Venus retrograde post this year (until people started asking me about what was up), but then I got the internal information tonight (on the inner-net 🙂 ) that it would be awesome to put the meditation I intend to do; up on my blog and it might be a good way to allow many people to use the influx of energy to bring about some positive experiences for our lovely planet.

If you have been feeling powerless about all of this; relax and surrender on the one hand, and get pro-active with the energy on the other. You kind of need both because if you hold onto the reins too tightly nothing moves.

Here is what I am going to be doing. It is a meditation I have done many times before; some of you may have done it with me. I think this week is an excellent time to bring it back into circulation; especially Monday or Tuesday. If you don’t read this by this week, feel free to do it any time.

 

Meditation:

You can do this in a group or by yourself. If you are in a group I would suggest sitting in a circle and working with the energy inside of the circle.

If you are working “by yourself” (and I put that in quotes because it really just means that we are the only one physically present when we are working; we are never really alone on a spiritual level) my suggestion is to sit in a comfortable chair (like you would when you are meditating in general) imagine that you are joined in a circle by your “spiritual entourage”, meaning your guides, or your ancestors, or the Fairies of the Universe, or whomever you would want to ask you to join in for some energetic enhancement on a planetary level.

Ground and center and possibly create and destroy some roses (if you aren’t familiar with this I have included links)

Get your own energy running and find your own peaceful centered place. Breathe and relax and know that all is well and that you are adding to energy that is already flowing and in motion for the Greater Yet to be.

  • Close your eyes and imagine/create/be aware of  a warm Gold energy. This is an angelic energy, a wonderful neutral cleansing balancing vibration that is associated with the experience of the emergence of our inner Divinity higher self in harmony with physical reality.
  • Let a column of this gold vibration flow from infinity into and through the planet until it reaches the center of the earth; imagine it as a waterfall of bright energy flowing from far above you into the center of the circle you have created and flowing down into the planet.
  • Sit along side of this energy and bask in its warmth and light that radiates outward. Let this energy heal, cleanse, balance you and your life and your circle and the planet. Let it enhance the natural goodness which is already here and eternally present.

Breath and ground and observe the flow of energy with your minds eye, or with your awareness.

  • Let the golden energy flow through the sun and through Venus and through the Earth; allow it to cleanse and balance all the energies as they flow from the galactic center to our lovely little home. Let it assist with the harmonic comfortable balance of spirit and matter.
  • Next allow ribbons of this energy to venture out from the main flow. Let these ribbons of gold energy flow out to anywhere on the planet where they are needed. You don’t have to know what or where, although you can certainly watch where they go if you wish.
  • Notice these ribbons of golden light as they flow to heal any hurts or pain,
  • cleanse any toxins,
  • comfort those that are alone or afraid,
  • flow and encourage people,
  • aid in their alignment with their highest best natures,
  • flow to the oceans and the mountains.
  • You do not have to direct the ribbons, simple know that there is what which knows what to do and how to do it, and allow that to move within the gold energy as is flows to where it is needed.
  • BTW it is completely appropriate to allow one of the ribbons to flow to you. 🙂 There is an unending supply of this loving warm golden light.

Let yourself (if you wish) ask this energy of enlightenment if there is any information that would be useful to you personally for your own unfoldment. Be still and let the information come to you in whatever way you like; images, words, pictures, feelings.

Let this process unfold as it needs to; and at some point you will feel it’s completion.  Let the ribbons join the main flow. breath and release energy down your grounding.

Thank the energy and thank your guidance. Know that you have done a great service to the planet and to your own life. Know that you do make a difference. You rock. 🙂

  • let this energy flow into the earth and release it, so that the column is no longer there. Take time and ground and release excess energy keeping anything you need for yourself and your body.
  • bend forward and release energy from your head and shoulders into the earth; come back up when you are ready. Make some notes if it feels good to do so, so you can remember your experience.

Thank yourself for taking the time to do this. And please also accept my thanks in advance. You are a Divine spark of the All that Is. I honor your light.

Namaste’

Bright Blessings and Aloha,

Erika

Balance for the equinox; for the coming alignments and our inner cosmic convergence; Sept 23-26th 2011.

Erika Ginnis

There is a lot of information on the internet about the coming “Cosmic Convergence” of Sept 23-26th 2011; and while it may have outer manifestations; on occasion I remind myself to look within and see where these events are taking place in the inner realms.

 

It’s been a really wild ride lately. So much goodness and so much to distract from the Truth of who we are! Interesting times as they say. I have been doing a lot of living, and not so much of the writing about it all 🙂 I had the opportunity to go deep this evening and had some good information come forward. This is such a good thing, as I have been so very taken by the appearances in my day to day world. I feel like I am swimming coming up for air and diving under; repeat as necessary.

 

This is what comes to me as important.

 

Remember the love remember the balance, remember that everything around you is an ever unfolding process that looks stationary but is always in flux and in movement. Remember that even at the heart of the matter that there is movement and action and vibration and becoming-ness.

 

This is the place to put your wonder; the place to connect to and dance with; this is where to put your “stock”. The energy that gathers itself into galaxies and stars and quantum eddies is not separate from Its creation but it IS the creation. It is part and parcel to this incredible evolving amazingness that we call life. Life is Good; the very essence of Life is Goodness; tap into that truth and ride it through all the shifting and changing waters that break against the shores of your consciousness.

 

Fear not; tempting as it is. There are so many things coming to the surface and then flowing away. Fear not because what you think of as solid is only a temporary form and it is changing even as you look at it. Trust the Love; trust the Heart; trust that there is a Divine balance in all things no matter the appearances. Remember the core; remember the Heart.

 

What if everything changes entirely tomorrow or the next day, what if all the structures that you worry about had no meaning, what if it all changed on a “dime”. How would that effect your position today? What if the future you are worrying about never came to pass? What if there was a moment and in that moment all expanded and melted; erasing all those things that worry you? How would that change what you are doing today? How would that change what you are thinking about; if you knew that, if you really felt that? Fear not.

 

Find your balance in the mystery, stand in the question, let the breezes of infinite possibility lift your heart and ruffle your hair, let it caress your cheeks and spark your interest.

 

Take a break from worry. Put it off for a week or two weeks, come back to it if you want to but for now, put it on the shelf next to those old photos you haven’t put into a binder yet. Let it just be for now. Turn your attention to the idea that at any moment the perfection of creation may show Its face to you, be ready, be on the look out for this, don’t be distracted, be called…be on call. The phone may ring at any time.

 

What if we really didn’t know how it all turns out, what if it ended up being so much grander than we could ever imagine. How would that change our thoughts and focus today? Relax into balance; the entry into fall, the equinox, the movement of the seasons, the wheel turning.

 

Ahhhhhhhhh.

 

Now for a nice chakra balancing meditation…

 

Ground and center and breath.

 

Create and destroy some roses and let your energy flow…

 

Close your eyes and imagine in front of you an old fashioned gauge, like the kind you might have found in a recording studio. The kind that measures amps with a pointer that moves from left to right.

Imagine that the left is black and the right is red (or red and green as the one pictured) and that right in the center straight up, is the zero point, the balance point.

 

Since we are a lot like a battery in our vibrating energy, it can be really helpful to balance ourselves now and again. The equinox is a perfect time to remember to do this…

 

Starting with your awareness at your first chakra, turn your awareness back to the gauge. Let this gauge represent your balance (balancing giving/receiving, yin/yang, male/female, positive/negative poles) for this chakra. Don’t be surprised if the needle fluctuates back and forth; that is not unusual.

 

As you breathe and ground; begin to create and destroy roses to release energy, and watch the gauge; keep this up until the gauge reads straight up zero/balance point. Take all the time you need.

 

Ground off the excess energy and let the process be enjoyable as you do this. This is your balance for today, it doesn’t mean 50/50 is simply means balance for you in this moment. It can be a lovely realignment for your energy.

 

Repeat this process for each chakra 1-7.

 

After you have done the 7 main chakras, do three more things.

 

 

 

 

  1. Do the same exercise for the balance between your hand chakras and your 7th chakra
  2. Do it once again for the balance between your feet chakras and your first chakra.

 

Finally create that gauge one more time and balance head & heart. This balance is the fertile ground for wisdom, and is a wonderful thing to cultivate.

 

As you balance and align yourself you heal everyone else as well. Thank you, and blessed be.

Aloha,

Erika

Light workers…Anchor the light in this Reality.

Erika Ginnis

 

 

 

Light workers…Anchor the light. Your new job description (if you choose to accept it) is to anchor the light in this reality.

 

 

Calling all healers who want to heal everything in sight…Upgrading the healing process can release “burn out” and overwhelm as an energy worker. I keep getting this information and I am finally getting around to writing it down!

 

 

The old form used to be…heal people around you by taking on their energy and then healing it within yourself or your body and then letting it pass away diffused. With a lower energy state this was possible and worked for a long time. However now everything is changing (have you noticed?) and the new paradigm has indeed shifted. If you use the old way of healing then you will actually be lowering your energy level; and it’s harder to keep up with the shifts that are occurring.

 

We have been doing this older way of healing for many many lifetimes so it is a habit and feels so familiar. To many of us it has been our self identity and why we feel we are valuable. It used to serve us as healers really well and so this is a strange shift to be making; but the information keeps coming about this, especially when we as healers want to assist with all the planetary shifts that are occurring and the results of these shifts on a physical level.

 

Do you ever feel weighed down, sad for no reason, overwhelmed with energy and the cause is unknown? There may of course be many reasons for this but on an energy level part of what I see happening is that the old energy of taking on another’s energy to shift it is no longer viable. We do it all the time especially during times of great change; we do it on purpose sometimes but more often it is an unconscious process.

 

I often ask people to do a quick energy check when this occurs.

 

 

  • Ground and center

 

  • Close your eyes

 

  • Quickly (before your intellect can tell you what it should read) put up an image of a percentage thermometer (0-100) in front of you and ask the question

How much of this energy I am experiencing is someone else’s?

If you get more than about 20 % or so (people are often surprised to see that thermometer reading 60-80%) then take a few minutes to breath; ground and release anything that is not yours.

 

 

What you can find that happens is that your energy will clear, and your vibration will raise and you will feel much better. The other thing that happens is you become more able to work with the energy and assist (by harmonic example) others more effectively.

 

The deal now is to bring your energy up to a point where it can really vibrate rapidly and comfortably and let that anchor the vibration into this reality. As you do this then it will make each subsequent beacon just that much easier to activate.

 

The healing happens now by catching the light by vibrational proximity; because everything is moving so much faster than it used to be.

 

This is not suggesting to deny empathy or compassion, but rather that we do it from the place of more light rather than less. Set the vibration and let the Universe/Divinity do more of the work; we can do more with less effort than ever before. This is good news yet since everything is moving quicker this means it’s also easier to find ourselves full to the brim with others’ experiences; so it becomes more of an ongoing practice.  🙂

 

We are of course all One on the truest level; however we have incarnated with individual perspectives on purpose, so this is a melding of those two realities. Let the actual healing happen on the Oneness level, based on the energy level you maintain; not the individual “I must take this on single handedly” level. Lean into the larger power source; with this comes inspiration and better focus.

 

If we use the old forms then what happens is that we take on other’s energy and so all the lights dim; our bodies feel worse and get overwhelmed; we become less effective. The lie is that the only way we can heal (or the way we are supposed to do it) is by absorbing pain somehow and then healing it, or getting someone to take our pain on and then letting them heal it. This was the way we worked in the past but times have changed; what I was taught years ago and am finally beginning to understand is that to the degree we are overly responsible for external energy the less we are able to “upgrade” the whole system.

If you were to watch every packet of information in a computer download it would slow the process down to a crawl. What we generally do these days of course, is to let something download, store it wherever and then open it and access the information. It is not necessary for us to process each bit of information personally; just facilitate the flow.

 

By anchoring the light here on this beautiful planet; we are doing more than we can imagine; yet it is a “doing without doing” kind of activity. Think of something like capacitors each being fired up…coming online and allowing more energy to flow with each additional placement. Think of energy wanting to move but needing more and better bandwidth to achieve the process; each brilliant anchor then increases the ability for the entire system to function optimally.

The analogy for energy-workers, healers, teachers etc. is to be the light as much as possible on any given day and let that actively remind others that they too are the light and with that memory they start to automatically glow.

 

Anchor the light. Bring on the Aloha.

 

Blessings,

Erika
