Bee deaths in Florida

The title seems to indicate that the bee deaths are a mystery but if you read the article it also mentions the spraying of pesticides just prior to the bees dying. They are doing tests to determine the cause but it seems pretty obvious. This is a devastating event for the bees, the beekeepers and farmers. We need to be better stewards of this planet.

Walk the path by St.Germain

From St. Germain:

You know the pathway, it resides in your heart. Know that it is and that everything is provided for. Let no fear encumber you as you pursue the goals of the path that leads to freedom, self-assurance and wisdom. Rise on golden wings upon the currents of fulfillment and rejoin with your soul's purpose once again. It is the time of renewal for all those who have been waiting on the sidelines these past few years. Heed the calling and remember who you are and your purpose in being here on the planet at this time. Many of you have encountered great obstacles and are now overcoming all stumbling blocks that may have been in your way. The road is clear, you may walk forward with the assurance that all is well with you. Trust yourselves to know the Way. Remember that the divine works through you all and that your divine radiance is needed now more than ever to shine forth as beacons of Light to all the people.

Stand tall and walk forard upon the pathway. Ride the currents of the divine wave that are carrying you Home. Know that you are in every way safe and secure in your journey upon the earth. Be all that you are and do not let others deter you from your rightfull path. Continue to rise above the chaos of the world around you, continue sending your light out into it, continue to show the way for others to follow. Continue, in all the sense of the word, to do what is right for you, surmount the odds and overcome all of the life issues before you. You will shine even more brightly than you did before. There is nothing in your pathway that you cannot deal with, nothing at all. Seek within and you will know the way to accomplishment of all your heart's desires. Keep taking the steps toward fulfillment and you will see the transformation of your life unfold with the speed of light.

Now is the time

For too long I have held back on doing the things that are good for me, trusting to my own instincts. I allowed the opinions of others to override my own voice, but now I am breaking with the past and the rut. I am recentering myself in the present. I have found that there are so many out there that have felt the same way. Frustrated for so long, it is time to redefine my path in life and chart the course that I want to take. I am doing it from an inner sense of knowing, using my intuitive connectivity with the universe to create joy and happiness in my life. Some call it the path of the heart, which seems an apt description. It was a rough year last year for me and for many others. My sister's passing was a bombshell in the middle of my life and caused me more upset than I could have possibly imagined. I am doing better with that now. This year has been different. The energies are more supportive of positive change and the way is clear to do the things that have been on the drawing board for so long. The messages from the spiritual side of life have been supportive of renewal. There is a certain diligence and focus required to achieve the path, but the path is there again, where I had felt it had disappeared completely. I am not alone in these feelings; I know so many other Lightworkers who have felt the same and they are also rededicating themselves to their higher purpose in this world. The calling of our hearts cannot be ignored anymore. We need to work together to make this a better world. There still so much work to be done. The planet still needs us to be who we are. The way is clear for us to walk forward and make a difference in this world.

Back to basics

After a lot of soul searching, I am returning to the things that bring meaning and joy to my life. There are so many things that I want to do with my art that I have, as yet, not done due to external events and circumstances in my life. My sister's passing in May was one of them and I am just starting to regain my equilibrium. I am returning to my pursuits of happiness and a more prosperous lifestyle.

I am doing a lot of exploring and will be posting the results shortly.

Gratitude and Faith

Lately, it seems that I have encountered so many people with so many stories of what they have been through in their life. Most of it having to do with health issues and dealing with close family member deaths or severe illnesses. Many have been shocking and tragic stories, others have been filled with hope and a deepened appreciation for life. No one knows how much time they have in this world. It puts things in perspective. It tests your sense of what is real and valuable in life. It makes you get off your ass and do something about the circumstances in your life because, after all, they are inconsequential in the grand scheme of things. Just go forward, one step at a time. Have some faith and don't look back. Past is past and, oh yeah, easier said than done. Do it anyway, eventually the world will catch on, just see it through. Carpe diem. You get the picture. Okay, enough with the cliches.

And so a message from St. Germain: On the subject of Faith
This will be a brief discourse, although the subject bears much longer consideration. We would say to those that live within the world during these extraordinary times, that faith is often necessary to accomplish one's goals and feed one's dreams until they blossom into fruition. Faith carries hope, and without hope there can be no new endeavors, dreams or desires fulfilled. Otherwise, why bother pursuing a goal, if only to be constantly dashed upon the rocks of disappointment. Faith, a true belief in one's self and the Creation to respond favorably to that belief, is evidenced in the action of pursuit of one's desire until it comes to fruition. There is always hope, my friends, and dreams left unsatisfied tend to, if they are a matter of our Heart's desire, linger in our psyche until we do something about them. And so we percieve things as we wish the to be, as we hope them to be and act in faith that we will, in fact, accomplish them.

Some dreams require a more diligent pursuit, but if given proper attention and the right circumstances, the dream becomes a reality. That reality is created by the person with the conviction, strength of mind and sometimes, sheer will determination, to see it through. Others fail, often just before bringing something to light, because they lack one of the aforementioned qualities. These qualities are in fact aspects of faith. Some will find this hard to understand. Action alone does not accomplish the goals of the Heart. It takes a manifold coordination of subtle energies to achieve said desire. The world is a complex weaving of energies and within the Grand Tapestry your will spins its web, intertwining itself with other aspects of the web of life, each one striving for new inroads to accomplish what it will. There are always responses coming to you from the Creation. If you pay attention to them you will find a smoother pathway to bring about your dreams, but you must pay attention. Not all things are created with difficulty but those things that are, are often the stuff that makes life worthwhile. They are often the things that are closest to ones Heart. So, walk forward with Faith into the unknown territory and remain open to receive the blessings that life has to offer you. You will find yourself fulfilled beyond measure if you have the courage to walk the path and see it through.
