So much is happening so fast. Whether it is earthchanges or politics, I find myself being bombarded by polarized thoughts -- every development is quickly judged good or bad. Each time I hear something labeled in either fashion, there is a palpable energetic heaviness created in the room. If I am already in a state of overwhelm, it is easier for me to give agreement to the judgment rather than to notice the heaviness and ask internally if it is really mine. (It isn't.) UPCOMING EVENTS September 8 Free Phone Meditation Oct 21-23 Tampa Florida concert - workshop - sessions Those of us who have a toe-hold (or even a tiny bit of one toe nail) in a quality of consciousness that lies beyond polarized thought are challenged by the polarized consciousness that is arising. People are reacting to this in many ways. Feeling emotionally on edge is common. Another symptom is an underlying constant tension within the physical body. As our Soul is able to express through our body and personality, we naturally move outside of polarity. When we experience a quality of compassionate consciousness beyond polarity, our bodies relax. But in these times, it can be very hard to find this consciousness that is beyond right and wrong, good or bad. What is whirling around us is a dust storm of judgment and polarizing arguments. And when we are not able to find that deep relaxation within ourselves, we are more apt to join in the game of argument and judgment outside of ourselves. As the world is so loudly filled with emotions and actions arising from polarity, it is harder and harder to hear our inner voice. Like ambulance sirens piercing the midnight stillness of our slumber, we are enticed again and again from our quiet meditative repose out into the combative world that we build from polarized beliefs. Remember: In any moment we can draw upon that part of our consciousness that lies beyond polarity, in the stillness of Spirit. We only need to remember that we are not always able to see the big picture of what is truly taking place in our world. The reason that we are seeing so much polarity in our world right now is because humanity is releasing itself from that consciousness. That which is leaving the consciousness of humanity is most visible as it is leaving. The Sirian Sun, a portal for the Sacred Masculine to enter into our lives, has been in alignment with our planet since the end of July. As this Sacred Masculine energy pours into our solar system, those qualities of consciousness that we are most ready to release are being activated. As they activate, we engage with them. As we engage with them we express them. Even judging polarity, and judging what arises from polarity, is an expression of polarity consciousness! The expression of polarity in our lives is an opportunity to learn about ourselves. Our souls do not understand polarity unless our personalities experience it. For this reason, we are swimming &endash; some might say drowning &endash; in a sea of seemingly polarized events on the world stage. As the annual portal of Sacred Masculine energy from Sirius closes in the middle of September, so too will much of the furor calm. And yet it is only because we are speaking about this polarity, calling it out for what it is, that this aspect of our division from Spirit can be healed. Much of the New Age and popular media coverage around 2012 obscures the basic principle of the new cycle, which is to step beyond polarity. It will not be an instant and total transformation. This is a process of many years, decades and even millennia. We are in the midst of this change now. No wonder polarity is such an issue for us! We are releasing the underlying quality of consciousness that humanity expressed throughout the old cycle. As humans, we don't change aspects of our lives that appear to be functioning well. We only bring our healing tools and attention to what is not comfortable in our lives. This is why the qualities of consciousness that polarity gives rise to are evident all around us now. We are ready to change them. At least some of them. I wonder, what am I judging in my life? When I see anything with judgment, I can see it only through my polarized consciousness. When I see this same issue as neither good nor bad, merely as an issue that is undergoing change, then I am seeing it with the eyes of compassion that Spirit offers me. I can change anything from the consciousness of polarity if I apply myself with hard work and personal effort. But this is not true healing. From this place of consciousness, I do not actually resolve issues; I merely act upon them, so that they cause me less pain and discomfort than before. When I am able to see an issue fully, beyond right or wrong, good or bad, only then can I heal it. Without judgment, the issue has no power over my emotions. In this consciousness, I can understand more fully the role the issue has played in my life to bring my soul new experiences and opportunities. Polarity leads us into the belief that we can fix all that ails us. Spirit reminds us that we are one of many dancers within Creation. Listening in silence to Spirit within ourselves shows us our next steps. May you each find quiet joy within yourself.

Introduction 2 Invocation of Sacred Space 3 How Energies that are not ours show themselves to us Creating clearer and stronger communication with your Guides and Angels. The quality of connection we have with our guides depends largely on our ability to understand when energetic consciousnesses, such as guides and angles, are telling us to let them go, or let them change and update their connection to us. 4. Home is in your Navel As we learn that there is a quiet still-point which already resides within us, the quality of spirit which imbues this silence moves out to our external world. 5. Meditation for Ease in 2nd Chakra It isn't just about sex. Our 2nd chakra helps to determine the quality of our life. The ease we have interacting with the world might be simple and uneventful, or each day might feel like we are bracing ourselves against the torments of daily life. In most cases our soul wants our body to have an easy and joyous experience of daily living. The polarities of this reality are more deeply held in the lower chakras then in the upper chakras. Early non-verbal cues that often teach us racism and sexism lie in the 2nd chakra. So too the belief that we are not 'good enough' or that we don't have the right to exist, or permission to be happy have their roots within the 2nd chakra.

Judging our body keeps our body from grounding itself because it keeps us contracted away from these nourishing energies. 8 Replenish &endash; from Norma's album "Songs of Spirit" 9 Deeply Resting into Home Home is the expression of the soul through the body in an unfettered manner. 10 Releasing Sacred Space 11 Questions / Responses from Phone Meditation 12 For more information   A Note on Phone Meditations and CDs of Meditations and Teachings: As of today, I have 28 Meditations and Teachings recordings available.

Any energy released goes home, to follow its own growth and evolution. This means that what is released does not return. And it means that those energies with awareness know that I mean to help them. In this way your agreement to "keep them safe" is brought to completion, because they are released with honor and respect onto their next step. This is true of all energies, big or small, that your soul and body are ready to release. Remember that any energy in your body or aura that is not in time or in tune with you will cause a slow, steady draining of your vitality. This leads to larger issues arising in the physical body, emotional overwhelm, and psychic cloudiness. A complete "deep cleaning" regularly can help you find, address, and release what is no longer yours to carry. This frees you up to engage fully with your own life's issues. (and yes, we can address life issues as well in the session). A recording is made of the session. When you listen to the recording your guides and the healing angels will return to continue to help your personal inner understanding and release continue. Sessions are $185 and last about an hour.
