"It's Our Time, down here......"

 

There is a powerful shift happening with my sisters and I.  I cannot help but feel it.  We are being spurred on in our growth intensely, especially since the three of us came together.  It is as if we have focused our energies in a profound manner, and have been noticed by powerful guides.  

I recently started a Judaic meditation series which guides one in taking in the Ayn Sof and guiding it through the Sefirot into the Malkuth.  At the end of the series, your direct connection with "G-D" will be much closer, richer, and fuller. You will come to know your Higher Self much more completely.  It is strangely simple, but highly intense.

Each night I do this meditation, then I ask my guides to assist me in assimilating the information and to spur along my work through the night.  Needless to say, this has caused my sleep patterns to change, but I have also been given a certain amount of knowledge and guidance in my sleep beyond that which I am accustomed to receiving.  Last night I slept only four hours, but woke up because I *had* to write down all that I had been shown and told.  I am blessed.....

Pieces of the Puzzle

My coven sisters and I are on a journey.  Up until recently, that journey has been highly personal and separate for each us with us coming together each month to do a special ritual.  However, a path is being laid before the three of us that is no longer solitary. We are beginning to act as a Unified Force.

During our last ritual together, for the Wolf Moon, we met a spirit guide that is acting to guide our group.  She does not act as on individual's guide, but as a guide for the three of us.  Also, the night before we met for this ritual, I met another guide that has only imparted information to me that is meant to aid the three of us.  The other two have not met her, .... yet, but I feel that it is only a matter of time before they do.

There have also been a couple of strange bits of synchronicity.  I am currently doing research for a book.  In doing it, I am reading a great deal of material and have ordered many books for this purpose. My most recent splurge was seven books about the Sacred Kabbalah that I found online for 99 cents each.  Though I chose them based on subject as well as price, they appear to be fully in line with the path being laid out for us.

On the evening of our ritual, we chanted a name of G-D that was given us by a friend of Serah, for a specific result and purpose. Just a couple days after this, I received one of the books I had ordered in the mail, The 72 Names of God, where this name had been taken from. I did not know this until I met with Serah a few days later and showed her some of the new books that I had gotten.  She picked up that particular one and said, "This is the book!  The one the mantra was taken from...."

Then, last night, she had a dream.  I had given her a crystal to match my own, It is clear quartz with the shape of the Star of David faceted into it. If you turn this side over, it is in a star shaped pyramid... for lack of a better explanation.  This configuration I have found to be very powerful.  I have used it to meditate and it was insanely intense, every time. 

Anyway, she was given special information about a ritual that the three of us are to do together.  She gave me the bare bones explanation of the working, which was all that she could remember, and I gave her information about what I believed it could all mean.  Then I settled into my own research on topic of my book.  I had not completely forgotten what Serah had discussed with me, but I had put it aside to research later.  However, when I opened my most recently acquired book, I found that the very information she was describing was contained within the pages.....

.....Synchronicity.....

Woman of Mystery

I have a new spirit guide, or at least new to my consciousness.  I have taken advice that she has given me in a dream just before our coven's Full Moon ritual recently.  That is the first time that she appeared to me.  She told me that for past life meditation, it is good to use malachite. 

Today, during my morning meditation, she came to me again. Before I go further, a bit of backstory is necessary.  For about two years I have been on Implanon, an internal time released hormone birth control.  I decided to go without birth control altogether as a result of that awful stuff, and it has been almost 6 months and my body still does not feel 'right.'

After the birth control, my body seemed as if it was starting to regulate.  However, this month I found myself 3 weeks late, and not sure what had caused the delay.  I felt all the signs and symptoms that I was about to begin bleeding, even feeling cramps.  Unfortunately, it just didn't come, regardless of the telltale signs.

A different guide, not the one referred to earlier, told me that I was having blockage in my second chakra, the Sacral Chakra.  This was due to the years of birth control, and most recently the two years of Implanon. 

This morn, in my meditation I went in with no goal but to center myself and relax before a long day of work. I went in fairly easily and met my new guide face-to-face.  She appeared to me as a gorgeous woman with long, thick, dark hair. She told me that I could heal my chakra imbalances with Pure Sound. 

I am aware now that this is not new information. There are many people who have found the proper frequencies to accomplish this, and I am grateful.  I found wonderful resources on YouTube.  I sat and meditated while listening to one such, and in less than an hour, the blockage was gone.

"I am," she said.

I have a deck of tarot cards I very much enjoy, that is the Shadowscapes Tarot.  Recently it has been giving me the Star in a lot of my readings.  The Star is a good card, but the Shadowscapes I use daily, for sort of a take on the day and its possibilities.  I do not consider its symbols beyond the short term. When I want to do that, I look at my Ansata Deck.

The Ansata is Major Arcana only, and I really connect with that deck. For the longest, possibly 3 months now, it will only give me the Emperor as a card to signify me.  The Emperor is the sign of the Pathway from Tiferet to Chokmah on the Tree of Life.  This made perfect sense for me during that period.

Today, I grabbed the Ansata.  I fully expected to grab the Emperor.  Instead, I grabbed - yes, you guessed it, The Star.

It is a New Dawn, It is a New Day!

Time spent with my sisters is time well spent.  I feel overwhelmed with love and inspiration after I spend time with them.  Here is a piece of art, inspired by our interactions.

 

... And this is a poem that was inspired by our meeting last night.....

The beauty in life serene

When the known mingles with the unseen

I know in my very being

That the stars, they hold the keys

Workings of a Full Moon variety

Today is the day that my coven is celebrating our Full Moon.  We are using the aspect of Cancer to accomplish great things together. Being a bit giddy about our undertaking, I went to bed to dream with intention; I asked for guidance for our ritual. Many things came to me, but alas, I cannot remember them all.  What I do remember is that we were meditating with Malachite in hand.

I have an amazing piece of malachite that I had not yet taken out of the box it was in when I purchased it.  I suppose it was waiting for the right time to appear.  Tonight is that time. Being a bit unfamiliar with all of its properties (my memory can truly fail me at times) I googled it, and found this:

This morning, upon awaking, I sent my sisters a heads up that they should bring their malachite to the circle.  Then I did all necessary tasks so that I could meditate peacefully.  In my meditation I used the malachite to clear all of my chakras, as it stated is a good use of the stone in the link that I shared in the above paragraph.  My observation of the experience is that the stone "sparkles."  That is the only way that I can describe its energy. It sparkles like a Stephanie Meyer vampire! Wooo Whee!

In my short journey I asked only for a simple message, as I wanted clarification for some things I was feeling and sensing.  What I was given as a sign was simply a very large and beautiful bull Elk.

Teachers Everywhere....

I visited one of my favorite places a couple of days ago - Half Price Books.  Each year, after Christmas, they have a "20% Off Everything" sale.  The previous day a friend and I had done well at one of their locations, but hadn't found specific items we were looking for.  As such, we made plans to visit another location the following day, which proved a good plan for we both found huge stacks of treasures we had been searching for.

But the greatest treasure - while I was working to thin out my pile, I met a most amazing individual....
     I am a bibliophile.  I am obsessed with books and knowledge. If I see anyone engrossed in reading, I feel a strong urge to find out what it is they are engrossed in. More oft than not, I do ask.  So, when I sat next to the elderly Vietnamese gentleman, who for more than 20 minutes was fully entrenched in his reading, I could not help but ask him what had his attention.
    The elderly gentleman turned out to be a GEM!  He sat down with me and talked for a good long while. While talking, I learned much from him. It seems he knew just what to tell me to spur on intense inner realizations and growth.

One never knows when or where.... but if we keep an ear to that inner voice, we can learn a great deal in a few short minutes...
