Good Faith

Faith does you no good unless you use it

The heart knows things that the mind can't comprehend

Ramion

I go to my Collective with questions. The Masters/Teachers within.
The chair that is to my right as I sit, for the first time is filled.
There is a Being there with such a love I have never felt before,
neither in it's completeness nor in it's complexity.

This Being seems oddly, vaguely familiar to me. I take my seat and am
introduced to Ramion. The Being seemingly appears to have no particular
gender, but rather a wonderful combination of both. There is such love,
kindness, acceptance and peace. A knowingness....

I am told that I have become many things....Brash, opinionated, close
minded, harsh, negative, impatient to name a few. These things I must
change in order to move any further.

I am frustrated by being told these things, but know deep down it is
true. This describes me very aptly especially in relationship to my job
in which I have allowed to carry over into the rest of my life. The
negativity that I have allowed back into my life has showed itself in
different ways recently. The subject matter may be different, but the
negative energy and bad results remain. One way it has come back to me
is having to sadly break off the connection once again with an old
friend just recently reunited because of the same type of close
mindedness of others.

Ramion and I excuse ourselves from the others. We walk down the hall
past the healing and lecture rooms. I have never gone any farther...We
turn a corner towards the right and it opens up into the most beautiful
garden. I am taken and shown a circle on the ground and am told that
this is my Breathing Circle. (I had been shown this exact thing last
fall) It is a circle of grass six feet in diameter. Around it is another
circle about a foot wide made up of stones about three inches square.
The four directions are denoted by large crystals.

I am told to sit in the middle facing the east. I become very aware of
the birds and butterflies all around. Ramion instructs me to close my
eyes and explains to me that these things that I have become are much
too negative in energy and they each actually have a weight. These
energies must be removed. The negative energy takes hold and spreads
becoming entangled throughout my Being on many levels. It is similar to
endometriosis in it's denseness, randomness. It's encompassing restricts
proper energy flow.

Here, in the circle I must come learn to breath out the negativity
daily. Each day, as I sit, the word/negative energy will be given me.
Some are deep rooted and may take several days to leave.

I am first told to sit cross legged and to place my palms on the ground
behind me near my hips. I am to sit tall and push my shoulders back.
This will help in the opening of my chest and energy flow. I am then to
take three deep breaths in through my nose, out through pursed lips. I
am now to rest my hands in my lap palms up and to slowly breathe deeply
counting my breaths from 1-25. On exhale I am to envision a dark color
leaving my body. This color will change day to day, subject to subject.
Here, in this exchange, the negativity, this way of being that I have
become, can be released. Then I am to turn clockwise and do the same
twenty five times in each direction.

It is explained that as I am lightened, I will become enlightened. Kind
of like...in with the good, out with the bad. Then I must give thanks to
all that are/have helped me.

Ramion and I then walk farther into the garden. Again I get the fleeting
feeling of familiarity and comfortableness with this Being. We walk in
silence taking in the beauty. We come upon a bench and then sit quietly
for some time.

Finally, Ramion turns to me and looks me squarely in the eyes. A
realization. A deep knowing and deeper love rush through me and I am
overwhelmed.
Ramion is my Mom.....

Finding Yourself

Harmony

If you live in harmony with nature, you will never be poor.

Enroute to the rooms in my mind.....

There are places I go when I go within. They are ancient, magical places that are familiar to me in a way I cannot explain. There, I find the answers. 

Isn't It Spring....YET??!!

I sit here as the snow swirls around outside my window. Just the other day I was out walking around my yard peeking at the new growth just starting to show itself. How exciting, I thought. I love spring. The freshness. The newness. The surprises. I honestly can say that I can feel it in my Being. There is a feeling of gratitude that encompasses me. I wish I could bottle that feeling for days like today.

Just a Penny

Just a Penny
The thought came into my mind, “It’s just a penny”. I began to contemplate…..

 It started as a thought put to a piece of paper. It then went through many drafts and needed the approval of many. This small thing of value developed to pay a debt or buy food for a family. Most times the debt paid in combination with other coin, but quite possibly, from one small child to another.

 It took men and women to find, gather and process the metals that were to be used not just in the penny, but for the machinery needed to make this penny. It quite possibly cost some their lives. Also, I think about the buildings that had to be built to manufacture the penny and security to keep this thing of value safe. Already, hundreds of people have “touched” this penny and it hasn’t even been made yet.

 Once produced, it begins to circulate. It is shiny and new. It finds itself being moved from place to place, from hand to hand. Over the years it has touched ...many. It has been lost and found and lost again. It has been appreciated by some and cast away as useless by others.

 This penny may no longer be shiny, but it is still of much value to me. I appreciate all of the men, women and children it has come in contact with from its conception and I send them heartfelt blessings. What dreams have been connected to this penny?

 I recognize the integrity within it, proudly having “Honest Abe” visible on its front and carrying its belief “In God We Trust” fore most on its mind always.

 And so to me, no….This is NOT just a penny.

 

Matter Doesn't Matter

Matter doesn't matter......

We all have Spirit around us....always. These perfect Beings are our own little army of greatness. But we must do four very important things. We must ASK, BELIEVE, ALLOW and THANK.

There is NOTHING that they cannot do. They want only that we be happy.

To not use them once you know of them is shear silliness. It would be as if you were drowning and you refused to use the life vest handed to you.

ASK. Start small to gain the confidence. Before you leave your driveway, ask for a convenient parking space. Ask for a short wait at your next doctors appointment. Then ask for more and bigger.

BELIEVE. When you ask, they immediately jump into action setting things in motion in order for you to have exactly what you just asked for. It is The Law of Attraction and their love for us. Believe in them. Believe in yourself.

You must then ALLOW them to bring what you ask for to you. If you are doubting, you are not allowing. Know that their timing is always perfect even though it may not be your timing. Don't let this deter you. There is confidence in this knowledge.

Then simply say thank you.

It truly matters not what you ask for. Matter, doesn't matter.

Operation Dream

Last night as I slept, I had a dream....or was it something else?

I fell right to sleep last night. Now that doesn't happen as frequently as I would like. I heard a voice say that I was in the hospital for some surgery. As the night went on, I would occaisionally "come to" as if coming out of anesthia. Things were foggy, but I felt quite comfortable and at ease. Each time I awoke I would be in a different room. This happened a number of times.

I felt that the part, or parts of me that were being operated on were not physical, but more on a spiritual level. It was like my core was being addressed. Then my chakra and also my head. I also, at some point felt as though I was receiving an attunement of some sort.

This morning when I woke, I felt both very calm and relaxed. These feelings have continued throughout the day along with a sense of power and knowing.

The trick for me has always been the ability to hang onto the feelings of the greatness I (we all) have within. Why do I struggle with this?
