Full Moon October Roses

Full Moon October Roses ~ A Healing Release                         October 30th, 2015

Yesterday my Angels showed me a dozen lemon colored roses at WalMart in the produce aisle. I knew it was time to do ritual, to honor and release the busyness in my life. After doing chores, and cooking blueberry muffins for my retired client, I headed home. It was nice to feel a balmy 68 degree October day. It reminded me of being in Texas or Florida. But for Maine, it is just a pause, a short break from the cold hard frosts and cooler days we are now experiencing.

Even when I am not feeling at my best, my guidance leads me to the right outcome. After dinner, I chose to listen to a healing lecture with John Newton. Remembering to grab my art journal and markers, I began listening by tuning in and doodling a "Freedom Page" . That is, just surrendering to the moment of letting the marker glide without needing to create a specific image. Circular movements created a matrix of interlocking shapes. I then added hearts and circles within those. Being in the "No time~ No place" moment of surrender, as I listened. I intuitively picked up pink, green, and blue, and colored in the patterns that showed up. I also added some of the healing words he spoke about getting to the root of healing.

Though I do find time to exercise, do yoga, and eat healthy between all the demands of daily living, my body is feeling tired and sore. What some call Sciatica, stiffness and nerve pain in the lower back and legs has been my challenge lately. It takes me one hours each morning to soften the pain with stretches and breathing to move on with my day. I also find that meditation also helps to relieve it.

As I continue to listen to John using his release method on the group call, I intend to receive what healing can manifest. Relaxed and feeling lighter, I head for bed. I lay down and place my hands on my hips to activate Reiki healing and call in my Angel team to work on me in the sleep state.

Angels are always ready to assist us in this way, but we must ask them before they are allowed to respond. This is a universal law.

Wild Freedom Friday~

I awake the next morning without the alarm, sleeping in until 7 am.  As I walk into the living room, I am greeted by a blazing red and pink sunrise. I grab my camera and shoot! A gift from the Divine! A sign of YES, you are nurturing yourself today! I see my yellow moon roses reflecting that inner compassion and love right here, right now.  I Am giving and receiving just by being in the moment of gratitude. I insert my Garden CD, light a candle surrounded by chakra stones, and I call in Our Lady's Love to surround me and my family with healing support.

My intention is to "Return to Love" in this moment and I feel the sweet release in my body. I look around and see all that needs to be done, but hear my angels say, "that can wait till tomorrow." So today I choose to feel the deep healing within. I set the yoga mat out between shoes, cat toys, and books. Sweet Lilly cat joins me as I stretch and breathe. She stretches and purrs too, waiting for my touch. Her softness and gentle spirit soothes me and we become spirit buddies" Being" in tune as the morning light streams in.

Yellow Roses, white Light,

Red and pink and purple sky,

Green living leaves of plants beside,

Purple violets in clay pots bloom,

With Altar stones and Fairy cards

Set on cotton cloth and wood

Honor East, Sunrise and Heart fire.

Warm Sun streams, hot Tea flowing in

I embrace these healing gifts

Blessed Morning, I chose to BE.

As I move my body into surrender, child pose, feelings of my ancestors come flooding in. Grandmothers and grandfathers remembered. I do not know all of them, but feel the strong pull of the Red Thread that connects us all. The tears come, I honor the feelings of the paths they walked. I know their lives were lived to pass on the lessons we are here to receive. In the pain and the healing, we are all one in the Journey of Love. No matter what. I choose to Let Go and be here now. I am connected to the Divine Love that accepts and blesses all experience.

I feel the compassion for myself and all beings who have walked the earth. I realize that my grandfather led me to the yellow roses. He promised to protect and guide my daughter's journeys from above. I am in gratitude to my angels and ancestors for guiding me into full moon ritual this day.

I am guided to skip the shower, grab my cup of tea and journal, and be in Cafe' as Shiloh says, to sit and allow time for me to just heal in the present moment with pen in hand.

As I write, Sweet Lilly climbs into the linen cupboard beside me for a nap. The yellow roses begin to slowly open their petals in perfect Love and Grace. I drink in the soft mellow yellow and delicate curly edges. Outside the sun breaks through the clouds while the golden yellow leaves that still cling to the branches dance in the fall breeze.

I miss the days when I could stay home every day creating, sewing, drawing and playing with children. Sweet times. Now I help seniors, my Dad (92) included, navigate their lives a few hours a week. Finding time for myself to write and paint through Intentional Creativity is my challenge and my love. I look forward to the fall and winter months to go within deeper into the desires of my heart. I am moving and expressing with the Divine. There is more to learn, to dream and to share.

I place my hand on my Heart and receive this day in beauty and grace.

And as the song "Open my Heart" begins the tears of release come again.

I send you each loving compassion for your self and your loved ones. Blessed Be.

"Wild Freedom" Friday

What is it that can make my Heart OPEN Wild and Wide?

On a cold -0 morning with sore muscles that need to be stretched and warmed, I treat myself to the luxury of a hot shower. Friday is my day off the road helping others. I move a little slower appreciating a house heated by a pellet stove and oil backup. And the glorious "Father" Sun appearing in the SE after days of cold and grey. This feeling of heightened joy as I feel the rays of golden energy streaming through my windows. Even Lilly Cat is stretched out taking in the precious passive solar gift. So Today "I claim my Wild Freedom Friday"! Friday the 13th - my wisdom number Born and married on the 13th. It is an energy magnet for me. I will let the beauty around me lift my cares away just for today. Home with my furry friend and only Art to command at my will. (Well after I start the laundry) 
I will have no thoughts of lack today. I have sent the "Critic" outside to count snowflakes, for she is most interested in preventing me from harm and will surely report later on what I need to be concerned about with the upcoming storm.:) This way she will not be on my shoulder while I work with my Muse of Creative Play. I love to see every object and every pattern of light and design around me as inspiration in my "Life of Overflowing Joy".

How can I live from this place, when I also have days of overwhelm, too many challenges, and not enough belief in myself to be motivated, or to know what I truly need? The dark days are always there to turn us toward the light. To reach higher, to Love more, and learn more about ourselves.

I use the tools of Intention.... 
To stay in Self Awareness of what is...
Accepting my emotions- all of it..
And also listening to the judgement of my critic (small self)
Then with my Muse questioning what I really want to create.
And taking time to SHIFT myself back to Clarity and Self-Love.

It takes commitment and a little time to do this. It is Heart Centered work. And I can magnify it by calling in my Angelic team. You see, they want us to have more "wild freedom" moments. And as we commit to becoming our true selves, we raise our vibration and begin to feel their presence with us. How can you do this? One of the tools is to think of the little things that make you happy! Become that child who looks and sees tiny miracles of beauty, and treat yourself to using a gratitude list every day. You can use a journal or just one single sheet of paper.
Write 10 things you are grateful for and see how it lifts you up! really feel it as you write it. 
Play a song that makes you "Happy". As you lift yourself up you will affect everyone around you. It is an inside job that grows to become an outward BEAM from your HEART!

Have a "WILD FREEDOM" Friday!

 You are your own special Valentine!

Honor your own Heart. 

Meditate on your own Self.

                                        God-Goddess dwells in You. Blessed Be.

Happy Valentines Day!!!

My life is surrounded by unfinished paintings, beautiful strokes of line and color filled with some sense of Presence, of Self, and also of the self undone. I begin to feel the churning within my internal mid section (solar plexus) that unsatisfied part that wants to rant and rave. “Why keep on doing this my critic cries? You know there is never enough time to keep up with all of the projects, events, and writing.”

But my heart knows the joy of stepping up to the canvas or into the art journal for that well deserved moment of “no time” as my fingers glide across the canvas and the page. My Muse insists that this is the right medicine for the Soul. It soothes the spirit and opens the intuition to “Listen and Breath” along the pathway into the open door of “Presence.” This moving meditation leads me beyond and away from the third dimension of cares and worries.

Can Art really transport one from stress to joy? YES! Being in the energy of the New Moon and deep in my Studio winter mode is a quiet gift to myself. I consider it “Living my Dream.” The new year goals have been written and considered. The tea and chocolate are available, the paint brushes are cleaned, and the candle is lit. She calls to me, “There are strokes to be made, tending and nurturing of flowers and hearts, and the claiming of yourself wholly blessed.” I am tuning in to all the feelings flowing through me as I tend the lights and darks. Painting from the sacred place of connection.

What wants tending in your Heart?

 My intention is" I am fully supported by the Divine Feminine through this process of Intentional Creativity."

Is your Heart calling you to paint this year? Do you have a desire to break free from the critic's pattern of false beliefs that keep you from living your dream? I would be honored to help you on your path.

Each Day is filled with Divine Treasures

After seven years of many changes and chaos in my life, an email came in from the Red Thread Cafe. It beckoned me to come and paint "The Muse of your own Heart". 

What pulled me there was the remembrance that I was after all an artist, who was just lost in the struggle of reclaiming my ground.  I was not creating in a way that I had originally intended.  Being a Creative spirit I knew I came to share the joy of creativity. But my heart was heavy.

I was side tracked by economic woes and not being able to retire. Resettled, downsized, and working part time with seniors my heart was more than ready to rediscover my true wise self. The one who had never left me, the one who had the strength to keep on going no matter what came into my life. 

But how could I possibility manifest this creative urge to do a new form of painting and do the teachers training as well? It seemed like a fading dream. But my angels knew this was my new edge to fly from. I was not as sure. But one day I was cleaning out a file and found this small pamphlet called "Your Golden Opportunity". This was the poem inside.

                                         
God Sends the Thread

by Alvena Hallett

                                                                    

The spider starts to 

spin its web

Without a thread in sight...

But it works,

God send the thread,

to weave the dream so light.

Be not afraid 

to start to weave,

That dream you would achieve...

Trusting in Goddess

just go ahead,

She knows your need,

She'll send the thread.

My heart  flew open wide with angel shivers up my arm! When you paint  "The Color of Woman" method through the Red Thread community, a special ceremony is performed using a red thread  which is passed around the circle to each one. The message is from an old tradition of many faiths. That those who were connected before birth by a cosmic red thread were meant to meet again in this life. And so as we join in circles, we remember our calling by passing the thread and tying one on each others wrist. In this way we support each other on the  journey of self discovery, and we can tug on the thread when one of us needs extra prayers or support. 

 Some times it's just a feeling, sometimes it's a song on the radio, and sometimes it's an old prayer that falls out of a folder that your angels bring to your awareness to find the answer you are waiting for. And all I had to do was say "Yes" and the rest unfolded in the miracle of what is now.

 I am guided on this new journey of offering workshops to woman who are looking for a new way to express their individual stories, their hopes and fears, the very healing of their souls right on the canvas, the cosmos of possibilities and dreams. The connection to our own personal heart space. If you are called to explore this beautiful process of Intentional Creativity with me, I would be honored to be your guide you as you step up to the canvas with magic paint brushes to meet your Muse and join the red thread community of woman around the world creating a place for transformation and joy!

Bring Me Loving Grace

                     Bring Me Loving Grace

Blessings on your Day of Self Love, Self awareness, and Self inquiry.
As I enter the compass of the medicine wheel of my heart
I ask that angels to surround you this day.
That you notice all the things in your life as blessings.
The water from your facet, "Thank you Water element"
The heat from your source, "Thank you Wood element Earth"
The fresh winter air, "Thank you Air Element of Life"
The sun, seen or unseen, "Thank you Life giving Sun element"
How many blessings of Love can you notice this day of Valentine.
This month of Being Love for self and others.
What is a prayer of loving thanks, but a noticing and intending to
be in gratitude for ones life,
 and all you share with the earth and humanity.
Be gentle with yourself this day and claim your own Heart.
Take a special cup for your tea or coffee, buy yourself a flower.
Do something special for you. And then from the deep place
 of peace that you access, then give to someone else.

Visioning A New Life

  What does my Heart Desire in 2014?

 

Can I look at my life from a place of Inquiry?

As I gaze upon the silvery trees dripping with ice and rain, I somehow still feel a peace and a calm deep inside. As if there is a balance and a mystery unfolding, and just for today I am being asked to let go of all the need to control my life situations, schedules, things to do and places to go. Why does it feel safer to be doing it all every minute, and then we find ourselves in an uncontrolled, seemingly inconvenience of a unusual event of snow, ice and rain? 

    Can I choose to see beauty in the chaos? 

It seems that mother earth is asking me to give thanks for this changing landscape. To bring myself to a new level of acceptance when things unexpected happen. Just yesterday I was informed that Sibella Poetry Magazine's website went down. And my first published poem celebration delayed. As I must resend all the information again. The learning curves and hills of my life seem to be a challenge that is continuously showing me that I can ride above my doubts and ask my inner wisdom to show me the way.

 Does Grace come in when all else fails?

 My faith in"everything happens for a reason "usually kicks in, and then some Ah Ha moments come to view. Oh, that is why things got delayed! Not because the universe is against me, but because the Divine Plan (or my angels) needed time to bring things about through a series of mini miracles that I don't even know about. And in all of the chaos my inner critic wants me to feel those old false beliefs that I am somehow "Not Enough."

What does my Heart know?

 So just for today, even though some of the goals are delayed, and new ones are yet to be visited, I will be OK without all the answers. I am going into my inner place of Knowing "All is Well" no matter what. And listen for the next steps. Nature teaches me. The birds are still feeding as the temperatures fall and rise -20 one day to 40 the next. The light is slowly getting longer each day. And I know that I am in the season of gathering my deep seeds of the Heart to create a life of beauty and joy. I can learn to flow through the chaos with my Muse of Creativity in all things before me, great and small. My spirit opens the door to the cosmic inquiry and I can ask and receive more. 

What is my Wise Muse saying today?

"Gather, write, paint, read and dream. Embrace Life!"
The gifts of a day in January from Mother Nature.

Blessings for your day!

Muse of Creativity ~ 2013

Blessings of the Season

Blessings of the Season

 Cynthia Taylor Clark

Glittering houses, crisp cold air, warm ovens cooking,

 sweet smelling fir trees, colored lights twinkling.

 List making, ribbon tying, presents hiding, mothers humming,

 choirs singing, bells in distance ringing.

 Snow coming, boots crunching, shinning starry nights,

 memories cherished, making new ones.

 Oh how senses come alive!

 Joyous planning, sharing feasts, family toasting,

 Fires bright for cozy nights, tucked in bed, children dreaming,

 loving gifts, hugs to share, blessing wishes each new year.

 Laughter echoes, stockings tiptoe, early rises sneak below,

 all the trimmings, such delight, pure abundance all aglow.

 Tis the Season, Merry Christmas!

 Just the feelings, heartlight grows!

                                                   

                                                   

                     Creating Magic & Balance              

Today I gave myself the gift of stretching and Yoga with the sun shinning through the skylights. Only 11 degrees upon rising. After painting yesterday, I feel the innocence of my inner child feeling the lightness of the holiday approaching. As I felt guided to turn on PBS, I was delighted to find a travel show about Christmas in Germany. The many outdoor markets in the beautiful villages of old filled with decorated booths of traditional wooden and glass ornaments, and their many tempting foods and treats. It was like walking through one of their sweet advent calendars that I have collected over the years. I have enjoyed this tradition with my twin daughters since they were 3 yrs old. Opening a window each day, to reveal an animal or toy as we counted down the days till St. Nicholas came, and the baby was laid in the manger.

        Can we keep the magic of the season alive with all the distractions?

 I must say that the feelings I carry about my own childhood and that of my own children bring that precious twinkle of Joy to my heart. But now I have to decide how to create more of that Joy within myself, since I do not have little ones around to remind me. Christmas is a delight to behold, even with the way too many cues to shop until you drop. I love to see the decorations and the little children's faces bundled in their snow suits and boots dreaming their Christmas dreams.

My prayers for all of us this season are for more awareness in the moments of celebration and being kind to each other. We need a little more patience as we go about the hustle and bustle of preparing for the big day. Let the theme of counting each day special begin with your own traditions. Let love and appreciation activate your heart center in making decisions of how much to do. We do not need to be in overwhelm. But we can make an intention to chose those things that make the heart sing, things that remind us of the memories that we are creating. And so that we may be a blessing to ourselves as well as to our family and community.
