Settling
Back into Ease
The sense of urgency and fear that many have felt in the
past few months can be talked about in several ways. I would
say that Gaia, the soul who has taken on the form of the
Earth, has been moving into a higher dimension of energy
more closely related to emotions. Our physical bodies rely
on her physical form, the Earth, for grounding. Therefore we
have felt this same uplifting process.
In some ways it is thrilling, and there have been moments of
expansion and ecstasy. But it has also been terrifying,
especially for those who have no experience of spiritual
energies or who have difficulty moving through and
expressing their emotions. Even for those of us with an
understanding of the larger picture, it can be frightening
or startling to feel what we have held as theory come into
actual form.
Gaia has recently shifted back to the lower physical energy
and so too the Earth has settled back into the lower
dimension of energy to which we are accustomed. Because of
the expansion that we experienced at the higher dimensional
energy, we are having a difficult time with the lower
contraction phase now. It is like being on vacation for a
month in Hawaii, and having to return to a cold and grey
northern city. All that we find uncomfortable is in our
awareness. And we don't like it!
This is magnified by the time of the equinox. When the sun
and Earth are most in balance, we can find both that which
is in greatest and least harmony within ourselves. In other
words, what works for us and what doesn't work for us
becomes more apparent during the times of the equinox.
The equinox is a great time of year to sit and feel what
both extremes feel like. By noticing what qualities we
associate with what fits and doesn't fit now we can more
easily make decisions about what fits and doesn't fit later
on, when the sensations may not be as strongly apparent.
When Gaia is in her higher emotional energy state, our lives
change rapidly. This has been true since mid-January. Now we
are back in the denser reality where change can take awhile.
Seeds that were planted will grow, but at a pace that is
partially determined by the density of the larger world and
our connection into the mass unconsciousness of all life
relating to the Earth.
The discomfort that you may be experiencing now comes in
part because your soul utilized the time spent in the higher
emotional energy field to fill your body with higher
spiritual energy. As we all re-ground and bring the new
spiritual energies through our physical bodies, those
aspects of ourselves that are ready to be shed come into our
awareness. We notice them as habits that we can no longer
tolerate (in ourselves and others), physical illness, as
well as thoughts and emotions that are not comfortable.
If you find yourself thinking "I just can't take it any
more!" pat yourself on the back. You are exactly where your
soul wants you to be in your cycle of growth and change. You
are noticing what doesn't fit, and you are not going to keep
it going.
This is a natural cycle, and a natural way of learning and
growing. By feeling what doesn't fit, you can let it go. If
nothing ever felt uneasy or uncomfortable, why would you
ever change? So take this opportunity to know that whatever
is a bit out of sorts in your life has been squeezed out of
you by your soul. Let it continue to move out, so that what
your soul has spent time growing within you during Gaia's
time in a higher emotional state may now grow into your
spiritual maturity.
My best to each of you,
Norma, with Atamira
And speaking of
change
.
The Healer
Intensive Workshop
I'm offering April 26 in Richmond VA will include the Reiki
Re-Initiation, retuning of Financial Guides, clarification
around emotions, working with ghosts and emotional layers of
people who have not crossed over fully, and many new aspects
that are still unfolding. If you have felt drawn to this
workshop, know that what I share in each workshop is always
based upon the needs and desires of those attending. I feel
that what evolves into the workshop comes primarily from
those who are drawn to attend. So while the description
exists on the webpage, it is merely the outline of some of
the possibilities. For more information, see my
Calendar
page.
New
Reiki Re-initialization Workshop
(Atlanta
May 9)
For many years
I have seen the various lineages of Reiki has having
beautiful light. But often that light seems constricted. As
a flexible channel, I often pick up on other people's guides
(really handy during healings, not so great in a tightly
packed airplane). A group of guides associated with Reiki
connected with me, and showed me how my talents at seeing
'the big picture' outside of someone's body lets me see
energies that constrict or dull the light of Reiki.
As a result, I
developed a workshop that is a series of meditations, led by
these Reiki guides and your own Reiki or healing guides, to
free up the Reiki light and re-tune it according to your own
soul and the vibration of your consciousness now. Healers
who have done this process with me say they feel much more
power in their Reiki, and deep clarity in their own energy
fields.

your Reiki group is interested, please be in touch with me
about scheduling a workshop for your area.
