Tone Magazine – October 2007 Issue
Well, another summer over and done with and I hope you all enjoyed the nice, warm weather and have recharged your batteries for another year. Summer is usually a time for us to relax around the pool or at the beach, go on picnics with family and friends, and appreciate air conditioning on those really steaming days. Flowers, birds and butterflies help us to reconnect with nature once more as we breathe in her fragrance and energy. For some of us, it is time to contemplate what the following year is going to bring once we start all over again in September and the kids are back in school.
I usually enjoy some time off to relax and unwind after a busy year of teaching, counselling and workshops, but for some reason, this summer didn’t bring the relaxation I usually experience. The energy seemed to be building in the last few months and instead of the tranquility that usually comes with a hot, lazy summer, my husband Steve and I have experienced just the opposite. A lot of you may have noticed many issues from your past trying to sneak into your life once again such as unfinished business with others, regrets and fears from your past experiences, physical ailments and body aches and pains and a really general irritation with things in your life that have never bothered you before.
For those of you who are tuned into the energy on the planet, you may or may not be aware that the energy actually has been building as we accelerate to a new energy shift coming very soon. As I write this article, it is September 4, 2007, and you will actually be reading this in October. By now, you may be aware of the Quantum Leap energy that happened on September 18 of this year. For those of you into numerology, you will notice that September 18, 2007 is a 9-9-9 day with 9 being the number of completion. From where I sit now, on that date, hundreds of thousands of people from all around the world will be gathering to help usher in this new energy. Of course, there are always the gloom and doomers that will cry the end of the world (again).
The truth is, many of you probably experienced nothing on that day. If you are sensitive to energy though, you may have felt an energetic shift happen within yourself. Since that time, you may find things beginning to move faster in your life, maybe unresolved issues have suddenly disappeared or you may find in the coming months you are doing things that you’ve never done before but have always wanted to do. You may find you have more courage to confront the issues in your life that are no longer serving you, and you may find that those people in your life that don’t love and support you begin to fall away.
This isn’t the end of the world, but instead it is the end of an energetic period that we have been in for the past 2000 years that has slowly been building to this point in time when we can begin to reclaim our true identities. The energy on the planet has been getting lighter and lighter for some time now, allowing the process of healing and awakening to occur very easily for some. For others, this process of evolving spiritually and energetically is a very uncomfortable thought, and many will choose to stay where they are. There are many who will find it difficult to deal with their own personal issues and take back complete ownership of who they really are which includes being an all powerful creator.
If you find yourself stuck in this scenario, it is important to love yourself enough to honour your own personal process. The fear that exists with taking back every part of yourself that you’ve given away in this lifetime and other lifetimes is very real, but until you understand that you have the power within you to create anything in your life you want, you will remain in a situation where there is always something or someone outside of you that has control over your existence. Taking responsibility for your entire life and reality including all the negative stuff will be one of the most eye opening and empowering experiences you’ll ever have.
You can not NOT evolve. Evolution is a natural process that occurs whether you are aware of it or not, and it is happening to everyone who lives on the planet earth. This new energy is simply going to accelerate the evolution process and those who are trying not to change will find it very challenging indeed. Duality and drama will work in conjunction with your fears and try to keep you in the illusion that this is all there is and that we are just little humans completely at the mercy of some outside force that has complete control over us and our lives.
Over the past few years, my husband Steve and I have been teaching a variety of workshops on the various aspects of the self. Last year, we did a complete series that covered everything we understood from the perspective of body, mind, spirit and the energetics of who we are.
We found that there are so many people on a similar journey as we are, and we wanted to help those who were feeling stuck in their own process. Sometimes, hearing the unexplained explained to you can open up potentials in your life you weren’t even aware of. The most common thing we heard from clients who were stuck was that they understood the concepts of what we were telling them, but that these things somehow didn’t apply to them. There was always a but…… “My situation won’t allow me to think like that”, or “I wish my family was more supportive of me doing that.” Our response is always the same.
This isn’t about anyone else. It is about you and your life and what you are willing to do to have it the way you want it. It’s about taking back all the little pieces of yourself that you’ve given away to other people and situations. It’s about stopping the energy you’re leaking and keeping it for yourself. This may sound selfish, but until you put yourself first, you can not be a sovereign being.
In the last year, there have been many articles, books and movies about “The Law of Attraction” which supports the belief that like attracts like and therefore, what you are putting out energetically, you will receive back and thus create the circumstances of your life. The problem is, many of these movies and articles tell you the mechanics of how to create, but they don’t tell you everything.
They don’t explain that there are so many parts of you that are working underneath the surface of your personality and that are working with your spirit or soul energy to create every situation in absolute perfection for your journey in this lifetime. The workshops we’ve created will help you understand all these different aspects of self and give you a clearer understanding of why things may not be working for you, or if they are, how you can increase your energetic vibration and continue to call in exactly what it is you want in your life.
There are many who just know the answer to the question, “So, who are you really” Then there are those who really have to stop and ponder. The truth is, everyone has a different answer during their healing and remembering process, but in the end, everyone comes to the same conclusion. And, what is that conclusion? Well, I wouldn’t want to disempower you and spoil the ending, which is really only the beginning. Your own truth and answers will come to you in the most perfect way for you.
Now, the energy on the planet will make it easier for all of us to answer that question without hesitation. It is now supportive of you remembering that you really do create everything that comes your way, and you always have. Looking back on your past and seeing with new eyes the absolute perfection of each event whether it was experienced in a negative or positive way will alter your future thoughts and beliefs about who is really driving your bus. Wouldn’t it be nice to deliberately choose where that bus goes next?
