This just in: Emotional Recovery Codes

2012-02-08T22:19:00.000-08:00

It is truly the "best of times, and the worst of times". More challenges, losses, confusion, energetic ups and downs every day. Faster manifesting, amazing spiritual upliftment and MORE POWERFUL TOOLS for healing, also every day.

I am excited about several different tools that have come my way recently. Here is one: healing codes using numbers, provided to us via Archangel Haniel. She recently came to Santa Fe Soul Health and Healing Center, where I am a practitioner, via medium and channeler Audrey Hanson.

Here are the codes, what they are for. Overall, these codes are to help stabilize us emotionally and also to heal any body part or area where there is pain, illness or injury. Some of my colleagues at Santa Fe Soul have reported excellent results with these codes, and I used them in a session with a client who senses energy well..she reported she could feel the clearing immediately.

I invite you to play with them as you want and need to. Have fun!

1. Chakra clearing code: 2-33-65
2. Mental clearing code: 1-12-13 (pronounced "one-one-two-one-three" not 1-12-13)

These codes are to repeated three times with your hand making a clockwise circle. You can circle your hand over each chakra in turn, and/or over any area you want to send healing to.

3. Sustain code: 23-11-76 This is to sustain our balance and positive energy.

This one was to be repeated three times but without any hand motions.

Many blessings,
Ellen

Join us tomorrow--Activate Your 2012 Intentions!

2012-01-10T16:52:00.000-08:00

Hello there...tomorrow night January 11th, at 9pm Eastern, I am doing a group teleclass on "Manifest Your Intentions for the New Year", an annual event that has been very popular over the years. To get ready, just write down one or two intentions for two or three areas of your life--personal, health, finance, creativity, business, relationships--you pick! And then register for the session at my website at www.repattern.com, under Holiday Season shifts. You must register by 7pm Eastern to be included in the session. It is a LIVE teleclass session, not proxy, though you can proxy in. (the date on the web page is incorrect, it will take place on the 11th).

To prepare you for this: Did you get a chance yet to listen to last week's session on Forgiveness and making a Fresh Start? If not, I recommend that you do...so you have a clear, present and open energy field for bringing in what you want to manifest in 2012. The link is posted in the previous blog post below, so just scroll down.

Happy New Year with love,
Ellen

Forgiveness, Fresh Starts and the New Year

2012-01-06T20:39:00.000-08:00

If only a really fresh start was as simple as taking down the 2011 calendar and pinning up the 2012 calendar! The calendar can be a symbolic way to start new of course, and many of us use it that way.
While we're on the subject of fresh starts, what I've been realizing is that forgiveness, acknowledging the past and what we regret as well as what we love, is the key to manifesting anything!

Whether that's a new relationship, more income, a fresh start in your business, improvements in your health or your personal habits...it's pretty hard to have energy, enthusiasm and openness to the new when you're dragging around an albatross of shoulda coulda woulda's.

That's why this month's "Your Time to Thrive" teleclass was on "Forgiveness, Letting Go and Giving Yourself a Fresh Start for the New Year." Did you miss the monthly free teleclass (usually on the first Wednesday of the month. If you sign up at my website you'll be kept informed about them at www.repattern.com)?

No worries, here's the recording link. Enjoy!

http://tinyurl.com/7hh7q95

If you have set intentions for 2012 already--or keep meaning to get around to it--or simply would like more support to make things happen in your life with ease instead of struggle, come join us on Wednesday January 10th for a session on "Manifest Your Intentions for the New Year." If you can't make the call you can be proxied in. (this is a paid session). To register go to www.repattern.com and click on Holiday Season 2011 . Register by noon Wednesday January 10th.

5 Ways to Stay Healthy in the New Year

2012-01-02T23:14:00.000-08:00

Wow..2012..the long awaited, much heralded and sometimes dreaded year has arrived. What will it bring?

My crystal ball is in for repairs--sorry! Whatever we believe about this year ahead, it's clearly a time to keep our vibrations high and positive and pull out all the stops in our self-care to stay grounded and come back to center quickly if we do get thrown off.

Which is exactly what my work is all about....so consider a private session or joining one of my group programs! You are so welcome. All events can be found and registered for at http://www.repattern.com.

To this question, raised by a well known practitioner, I answered "The 5 most important keys to staying healthy are...:

1. Decide and thenregularly affirm that you are choosing radiant health and aliveness foryourself, that you are fully supported in your choice of healthnad that you arecommitted to those actions and attitudes that create and sustain health.

Making a clear intent and decision is actually the first step to manifesting anything.

2. A daily gratitude practice..listing 7 or more things youare grateful for about yourself and/or your life. Great to do in the morning and as you go tosleep.

Not only is gratitude the highest vibration, but since wetend to find what we are looking for, this practice helps us perceive theblessings in our lives more and more.

3. Look at yourselfin the mirror with love and compassion as though you were the Divine gazing athis/her dearest friend or beloved child. Make it even more powerful by using the Ho-oponopono forgivenesspractice where you tell yourself "“I'm sorry. Please forgive me. I love you. Thankyou."

I believe that lack of forgiveness is part of many illnesspatterns, and most people forgive themselves least of all.

4. Each day find away to express love to another person or an animal--at least once. Discover the love languages that youuse--words of love or appreciation, acts of service, gifts, food, makingsomeone laugh, physical affection and practice speaking that love language.

Social contact and being of service has been proven to haveamazing health benefits.

5. Discover throughresearch, muscle testing and trial/error observations of your body, and/or consulting with apractitioner--the best foods and ways of eating, the schedule, the amount of sleep, theexercise and mind/body practices for you (such as the Emotion Code) that makeyou feel most balanced, vital and happy.

Then, do your best to build your schedule and lifestylearound providing these things for yourself. At the same time, accept with humor and understanding that there will bedays and times when you can't do your health routines perfectly or at all.

Remember, as my guides keep reminding me: “Self-care is not a luxury right now, it’s a necessity!”Self-care means doing your own inner work while also getting support you need from friends, family and practitioners. The days of going it alone are OVER!

Solstice Blessings to You!

2011-12-20T14:51:00.000-08:00

Winter Solstice takes place late Wednesday 12/21 or on Thursday 12/22 depending on your time zone. Can you feel the stillness, the inward pull of the shortest day of the year--despite the external pull of all the holiday festivities and busy-ness?

In the cycle of nature, the solstice is the time of seeding our dreams and visions of what we want to plant, grow and harvest in the next growing cycle. Even though all in nature appears still and underground, it is a potent time. So try to find a little time in your day, early in the morning, noon or in the evening, to be still and listen. Use breath and slow movement to find that still place.

Many blessings,
Ellen

Here is more Solstice and New Moon info from Lena Stevens, from http://www.thepowerpath.com/.

"Winter Solstice is Wednesday, December 21 at 10:23 PM Mountain Standard Time. This solstice is a time to celebrate your life, your responsibility to yourself, your power, your talents, your purpose, your vitality and your inspiration. Make a list of everything that stands in the way of this celebration and burn it with ceremony. Take note of where you are, what you are doing and who you are with. How is it? If you don't like it, change it. Since we are in an accelerated time, allow things to move and shift and manifest without the need to control or micromanage. Trust that your intentions are well set and step aside to allow them to manifest.

The New Moon is Saturday, December 24 at 11:08 AM Mountain Standard Time. This is a time for anchoring, for affirming, for sticking to your boundaries and for inserting order into something you can control. A good day to organize any space that is yours or improve your environment in some way. Being as this is also a holiday in many traditions, make sure you are not compromising yourself with unwanted distractions, but rather that you are in control of your decisions around how you are spending the day. It's OK to say "no" to what you don't want and "yes" to what you do want."

What happens in the Manifest Your Mate program?

2011-12-14T16:23:00.000-08:00

Manifest Your Mate is a program to move you forward easily, into the happiness, joy and the peaceful heart that comes from having love and a really wonderful partner to add to your life.

We begin this Saturday December 17th at noon Eastern with a live teleclass on “Increasing your Feminine Presence and Magnetism”. I will lead us in a group Accelerated Belief Clearing, using Resonance Repatterning.   This session is recorded so you can participate even if you can’t be on the call.

After that I will do 8 more belief clearing sessions, one per week. These sessions will also be the same ABC process except you won’t be on the phone with me. (’ll explain more about this in a second. )

Each session has its own theme or topic and these are custom designed for each group, so they are different each time I offer the Manifest Your Mate program.

For each session, you’ll be given questions to think about before each session takes place, which will be posted on my blog…you’ll also get e-mail reminders when the questions are posted.
Other features of the program:

A recording of the live teleclass, Session 1. For the 8 distance sessions I will provide detailed session notes within 24/48 hours. The notes tell you what we worked on and will help you relate what you are experiencing to the session. The notes will also tell you if there are any positive actions or homework from the session.

So there will be some work to do on your own, which is all self paced.   The goal is to keep the homework simple and doable, and not to overwhelm you—just what is needed to help you integrate the shifts that will happen from the distance sessions.

Apart from the first teleclass, and one other group support call (both of which will be recorded) the rest is done for you via the distance sessions. After the session I provide written session notes so you’ll know what work was done for you, within 24-48 hours. The notes will also let you know if there are any positive actions or homework you need to do as a follow up.

All you do is read the notes and do any positive actions or homeowork from the notes. It's not like school, if you fall 'behind' just catch up as you can. All the work is done at your convenience, on your schedule.
What else do you get by signing up?

Within the program itself is more group support, PLUS options for additional private support at a super discount.

There will be one prescheduled support call midway through, where I can work with anyone who needs it, answer questions and help you go deeper.   On request and as needed, there may be one or two other support calls to be scheduled as we go.

What is distance, virtual or proxy work?

I mentioned that the program will include 8 distance sessions.  In distance or proxy work, you don’t have to call in or even tune in at any particular time.

Whoa--how does this work? I’ll explain more on the December 17th call, but briefly here…in proxy work I tune into the group’s collective energy and see what needs to be repatterned. That’s a little different than a live session in person or by phone where I would speaking with you and get answers from you in conversation.

What is the same is that whether live or proxy, I use the same process—which is based on the detailed clearing process contained in the written Resonance Repatterning protocols as guided by my intuition and muscle checking or kinesiology.
My clients LOVE proxy work, especially my Joyful Manifesting 5 day Intensives. They keep coming back for more because they find it powerful and effective, and yet ultra-convenient. (What a combination!). During a proxy session you can be traveling, sleeping or doing whatever you want while the work is done for you. Then you get the notes afterwards.

Distance or proxy work might sound strange or hard to understand if you have not yet experienced me leading a repatterning session. How can this work as effectively as it does when we are on the phone or working in person? It works through principles of “nonlocal reality” of Quantum Physics…to try to explain that here could get pretty way out for you.

The best way to understand the ABC work and how it all works, is to experience it.

How can you experience this work directly, and get how proxy works?

You can do that two ways: first way is that I send you a link to a recorded session where you can follow along and experience the work that way.   Just email me at HeartsAbode@gmail.com and ask for it!

The other way for you to sample the work is to actually join us for the first session of Manifest Your Mate. That's why I'm offering the first session live by teleclass, to encourage you to sample a session. You'll be able to hear, see and feel how the process works, and to feel things shifting inside yourself as we work.

So I invite you to try the “sample a session” option and plan to attend (or listen to the recording later) the December 17th session at noon Eastern. What you do is enroll in the program, but if you then decide this is not for you, you can cancel after the first live session and just pay $40, my fee for a single repatterning group session. I refund you the rest. I am confident you won’t want a refund but I want this to be as low risk as possible for you, so you’ll feel safe joining us…and so you can get help to manifest your mate.

‘Cause that’s what it’s all about, after all!

To learn more, go to this page: www.repattern.com/Manifest_Your_Mate.shtml.

Many blessings and happy manifesting,
Ellen

PS Did you collect the gift I mentioned earlier? It’s for you whether you choose to enroll in the program or not….and I encourage you to share it widely with your single friends. Just make sure to tell them where you got it and the link to my blog or website.

It is a powerful healing ritual that was recorded. It is called “Releasing the Old, Opening to the New” for manifesting a mate. It’s about an hour and you are welcome to do this on your own.

To find it, scroll down to the previous few posts right here in my blog: www.heartsabode.blogspot.com. The 12/9 post has instructions on how to prepare; the 12/12 post has the recording of the actual ritual. Enjoy and let me know how you like it.

What do YOU want to manifest now and in 2012?

2011-12-13T09:59:00.000-08:00

I thought you might enjoy this transmission reproduced below. It's such a great time to focus on what you want to manifest in your life--that is also in alignment with spirit, soul or Creator. And to remember that we are loved indeed. I find myself remembering with joy an experience I had years ago of looking at myself in the mirror and seeing myself through the eyes of the Divine, with total love and appreciation.

If you are feeling called to manifest a mate this year, come join us to begin the journey this Saturday, Dec. 17th! the link is http://www.repattern.com/Manifest_Your_Mate.shtml

Wishing you an amazing holiday time and year ahead with great love,
Ellen

Discussions on 2012 by Archangel Metatron and Lord Buddha- Part 2
Channelled through Natalie Glasson- 12-12-11

It is with great angelic love that I step forward today to greet you accompanied by Lord Buddha, I am Archangel Metatron. In our previous communication together Lord Buddha spoke of the importance of the word 2012, encouraging you to use it as an activation for your being and growth. Lord Buddha also spoke about holding and understanding in your mind what you desire for the year 2012. The energies anchoring into the Earth and more importantly into your being are of quick vibration and so there is much power to fuel your thoughts and the ideas you wish to manifest. I encourage you to use this time to manifest your dreams and desire but to ensure that these are aligned with and blessed by your soul otherwise you may only cause greater confusion in your reality. Striving to achieve something that isn't the will of your soul and the Creator will only hider your spiritual development at this time.

2012 and the years beyond are aligned to returning to your original energies and source, which means returning to the energy of the Creator. This alignment is so strong that many people believe or feel that numerous Ascended Masters even Jesus will return to the Earth during this period of humanities growth. Their feelings are an acknowledgment that the veils between the Earth and the inner planes are becoming thinner and so our beloved Ascended Masters, the angels and our guides will feel as if they are closer. It is not so much for the Ascended Masters to manifest but for your senses of their presence to increase. You may also feel a greater closeness and connection with the Creator. Your sensitivity to energy will increase and so you will feel as if you are uniting with aspects of your being and soul, as everything becomes entwined and united together as one.

It is because of the presence of the original energy and a greater connection with all that is the Creator that your manifestations will be fueled tremendously. At this time it is essential to look within your being, while calling for a quicker vibration of the Creator and your original source to pour into your being. As the energy surrounds you, pouring into your being, you can place your attention within your being and ask for the same~~for the energy vibration of the Creator within you to quicken and for your original source energy within to emerge and radiate from your soul.

You may call upon your angels, guides and ascended masters to draw close and to support this process offering any guidance or wisdom that is needed. Experiencing the energies you can ask your soul and your original source energy what it wishes to create and manifest at this time. With the energies flowing it is a wonderful opportunity to ask or to affirm what you desire or need within your reality to encourage a smooth, appropriate and easy path way forward.

Your original source energy is the vibration that you existed as before you separated from the Creator's soul to follow your path of learning and understanding. It is also the energy that you vibrated at after the separation from the Creator when you first moved forward as your Monad or soul group. This energy is extremely pure. It is a vibration before physical incarnations and so doesn't hold any karma or pain, just pure energies of love. By connecting with this vibration of your being you are reconnecting with a wealth of love with the ability to bring forward this abundance of love into your current reality and current existence on the Earth. It is a wonderful and powerful process to acknowledge that every time you are connecting with or thinking about your original source energy you are bringing a greater volume of love into your being and reality. As more and more people achieve this, a wealth of pure love will be anchored into your Earth through the intentions of many. It is essentially to channel the vibration into the Earth to support the development and transitions of Mother Earth as well as humanity. I wish to encourage you to focus upon activating and radiating your original source energy of love throughout each and every day. If you connect with this vibration during meditation you can become familiar with its energy and therefore when you call it forward throughout the day you will feel at ease and comforted by the energy, understanding its colours etc.

This process in itself will create many transitions within your being as much that is false or unneeded will fall away due to the presence of your original source energy. Even connecting with your original source energy may bring back memories of separation when you missed your greater unity with the Creator. This can be healed and overcome as it may be continuing to play out in your reality. A deeper connection with the Creator will also be experienced as if a new magnetic pull is binding you on a more intense level with the energies of the Creator.

Love is extremely important at this time,. There is a need to observe your own energies and thoughts to ensure that all are aligned with love. Re-evaluate your radiance of love and magnify it at this time. Let yourself be pure love, experience pure love, think with and as pure love and express pure love.

Can you allow yourself to exist as a greater beacon and example of Creator love on the Earth? It is in this period of growth that there is a needed to focus upon love as not only will it be a healing and cleansing process for you but you will be able to heighten your energy vibrations and wash the Earth with love. This will create a foundation for the era of love to manifest in 2012. As you think and exist as love, you will be placing the intention of love into 2012 and the coming years. You will also be holding yourself and loved ones as well in love. We cannot ask for anything more at this time.

The love that we are speaking of isn't a romantic love, nor is it a soul connection love. It is the love of the Creator. It is the way and the energy expressed as the Creator loves you. It is for you to collect the love that the Creator shares and bestows upon you and to radiate this same love from your own being. You already have the love of the Creator within your soul and being, there is just a need to connect with this vibration and ask it to flow forward.

During meditation or quiet time you can ask to connect with and experience the love of the Creator for you. Let yourself soak up this love, then simply ask to share and radiate this love from your being. You can remind yourself to achieve this throughout your day. It is also a wonderful process to practice sharing this energy with your loved ones, with humanity and the Earth noticing how different this loving energy is to your normal expression of love.

This process is most beautiful because it allows you to acknowledge and realise that you are loved completely and absolutely, with the ability of sharing this with others. As other souls achieve the same you will also be surrounded in the love that the Creator has for humanity, a strong and unconditional love. This is a beautiful way of beginning the Era of Love and it is a practice that can be brought forward as a natural habit into 2012 and beyond.

You may have noticed that through these communications we are offering you a focus for each week as we draw closer to 2012, this will continue as we love you unconditionally and wish for you to know that we are with you at this very special time.

With love and blessings,

Archangel Metatron and Lord Buddha

Your last holiday season without a partner?

2011-12-12T16:32:00.000-08:00

Do you resonate with that intention, as a single woman? If you are already blessed with a loving intimate relationship, do you have a single friend or two who want to find their mate? If so, then the upcoming Manifest Your Mate program is for you. It begins at the holiday season and ends right before Valentine's Day.

The goal of the program is to clear blocks to meeting and starting a relationship with a loving partner, a true mate. Even if you have done some work to get ready for someone new, chances are there are some layers of beliefs and emotional programming that are keeping this from happening.

Manifest Your Mate, which you can begin right now...is designed to address those things in a focused and effective way. And to help you feel more confident, happy, and open..so that you can also enjoy life along the way as your partner is on his or her way to you.

You can begin the journey right now with this ritual and healing process, called "Releasing the Old and Opening to the New". It was done last Saturday and here is the recording..you'll need about an hour.

To listen to the ritual and do it yourself as you follow along: http://tinyurl.com/7lr8f5t
(See also the previous post at this blog for more info on how to prepare for it). Then.....

Your next step would be to join us next Saturday Dec.17th at noon Eastern for a session on "Growing Your Feminine Magnetic Presence". This is the first part of the paid program of Manifest Your Mate..if you are new to my work but this program sounds just right...I encourage you to register for it
under my "no-risk" sample offer. You would sign up for the whole program but know that you could withdraw after the first session and just pay for that session. (We have 9 sessions total plus an extra support/Q&A call...a LOT of clearing and energy shifts that will definitely move you forward and clear the path big-time).

Learn more and register here at www.repattern.com/Manifest_Your_Mate.shtml.

Manifest Your Mate/Ritual for Releasing the Old, Opening to the New

2011-12-09T11:31:00.001-08:00

Tomorrow December 10th, as we are within the energies of the full moon/lunar eclipse, I will lead a ritual as the opening to the upcoming program called Manifest Your Mate. The ritual is free and open to anyone, whether you intend to join the program or not. So if you want to manifest a mate, or vastly upgrade your current relationship, join us..if you are blessed with a loving partner but have single friends, feel free to invite them.

Utilizing the planetary energies we will be focusing on Releasing the Old, Opening to the New, and on forgiveness. Clearing the path of old baggage is a difficult but necessary step and that's what we will focus on...with the loving empowering energy of the group.

To prepare you are invited to write down any or all of the following:
1. Beliefs about love, relationships and yourself from past breakups or relationships that did not work out. Don't try to make an exhaustive catalog..just list the top three that come to your mind.
2. One or two mistakes or things you regret about things you have done or not done in relationships.

3. Areas where you would like to develop more openness and receptivity in your relationship--again, keep it to one or two.

When/where: Dial in to this number at noon Eastern, 10am Mountain time, from a quiet place:
1-218-237-3840 access code 134971#. This call will be recorded!

Come join us and expand the vibration of healing, love and forgiveness on the planet as you open your own personal path to deeper love and intimacy.

Many blessings,
Ellen

How the Intensive actually works..a particpant guide

2011-11-20T20:35:00.001-08:00

Participating in the Intensive:

The sessions will be done sometime during the day, each day. However there will be a break for theThanksgiving holiday so the final session will be on Saturday the 26th. While the session is happening you just go about your life. You do not need to meditate, sit quietly, focus on your intentions or do anything in particular. You can be sleeping, eating, watching a movie, working, or lying on a beach in

Costa Rica

(ahhh…)

If you’re sensitive to energy you may notice some feelings come up or some kind of energy shift during the days of the Intensive. Be sure to read the session notes, they will help!

I write up session notes, detailing what was addressed in the session and email them to you. My goal is to get them to you within 24 hours of the session so they are current, but my promise is no more than 48 hours after each session. If you do not receive session notes for some reason (check your spam filters) please don’t hesitate to contact me and ask where they are. Glitches do happen sometimes.

The emails will come from HeartsAbode@gmail.com.

The sessions will work regardless of whether you read the session notes, so you can relax about that. The session notes are provided for two reasons:

1-So you can understand things you may be feeling, new insights or shifts that you experience, and relate them to the session

2-To let you know of any positive actions (homework)that came up for you to do.

These are generally short and easy to do—the point of the program is to make transformation simple and not a lot of additional work.

Optional participation: I welcome your questions and also your experiences during and after the Intensive, so please do write me. I may share your experience with the group, omitting any identifying details of course. It’s very uplifting and enlightening for everyone else. (If you do not want it shared,

just let me know as I respect your privacy.)

That’s all folks! Enjoy the ride…

Ellen

Joyful Manifesting is revving up now...how to get ready!

2011-11-20T20:24:00.001-08:00

The next Intensive begins tomorrow night November 21st. This is almost 3 years since I began this program of accelerated energy shifts. You can still join in and you have until 7pm Eastern tomorrow to do so. Go to http://www.joyfulmanifesting.com.

There are two parts to this message..the first one, below is about preparing for the Intensive. The second part of this message will go in the next post and that is more about how the whole Intensive process works.

How to Prepare for the Intensive: Take some time to contemplate two goals or intentions, things you want tomanifest for this intensive and then write them down. They would be:

#1: A tangible goal: something you could see or recognizewhen it arrived such as a certain sum of money, completion of a project, acertain kind of relationship

Important: make it something that is a bit of stretch butseems possible to you..not something that your subconscious mind will totallyrule out as impossible.

#2: An intangible goal: a quality or state of being that youwant to experience more consistently (example: focus, peace, clarity could allbe intangible goals).

A few guidelines: try to keep the wording simple and direct. When it gets very complex, it becomes harderfor you to recognize when the goal manifests. Also using phrases like “I easily manifest….” helps.

You do not have to send these to me, but you are welcome to if you wantfeedback on the wording, or want someone to witnessthem. Why don't I ask you to send those to me?

The reason is because I'm not repatterning your goals and intentions, just the limiting beliefs. I use the repatterning and belief clearing to get whatever is blocking your manifesting out of the way.

Whatever your two intentions or goals are, write them down in your journal or somewhere youcan refer back to them. Keeping a journal throughout the Intensive is a great thing to do; I highly recommend it.

That’s all folks! Enjoy the ride…

11-11-11 is TOMORROW! Time to weave our hearts!

2011-11-10T12:20:00.000-08:00

According to many intuitives and seers, Friday 11-11-11 is a huge portal opening and another wave of major planetary shift. Whether it is or not, the fact that so many people are focusing on the date and using the 11:11 am and the 11:11 pm to dance, celebrate, meditate, set intentions or visualize world peace makes it a powerful time.

There is a whole calendar of events happening in Santa Fe that day. On the site for those events,
www.liveasone-11-11-11.com, is a lovely Heart Thread Meditation. I want to share it with you here---let me know if you try it, how you like it.

Happy 11-11,
Ellen

"The HeartThread is a simple technique for entering the space of the heart and linking with the hearts of others. We place our right hand on our heart and the left hand over the right and close our eyes. From that place of stillness and peace we then feel, imagine or see the fibers of our hearts linking together with those of other hearts. We are then able to experience a sense of connection or oneness and even receive messages that enhance our sense of peace, understanding and connectedness.

The HeartThread technique can be used in a therapeutic setting with trained HeartThread facilitators or as a simple method for people to connect with each other, one on one or in a group. It can set a harmonious tone when used before a meeting or group process and can be used to assist friends, family and loved ones to release old patterns of behavior that no longer serve them. This enhances a sense of self-reliance or self-autonomy when used over a period of time on a regular basis. The HeartThread process can also be used with animals and over distance (e.g. over the telephone).

The more people that come together in this space of oneness, the greater is the unified field. A few minutes is sufficient to bring people into this field so they experience its beneficial effect. It is possible to affect the consciousness of many on the planet when the HeartThread is used in a coordinated manner with many people at the same time. This is the principle on which the Live As One experience on 11/11/11 is based.

You can also find a view photos and testimonials of those who have experienced the HeartThread in session or at workshops where we teach people how to use HeartThread in a peer-exchange at http://HeartThread.wordpress.com"

Get Your Gratitude in Gear tomorrow night & all month!

2011-11-08T09:51:00.000-08:00

To inspire you, here's an article on the neuroscience of gratitude: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/ocean-robbins/having-gratitude-_b_1073105.html?ref=fb&src=sp&comm_ref=false (thanks to Adela Rubio for sharing this)

In honor of gratitude month I am posting on my Facebook fan page, 21 days of saying three things I'm grateful for. As I do this, and look for things to be grateful for, more good stuff happens! Come join me if you'd like to participate at Solopreneur Woman on Facebook and get your gratitude energy in gear!

Also, tomorrow night November 9th, I have a teleclass called "Get Your Gratitude in Gear" to celebrate and reinforce this month of gratitude. We've all been told that gratitude is good for us, and that it's always good to be thankful, but how do you do it when life isn't going your way, when the money isn't there, or whatever is showing up that we don't want..?

There'll be some teaching and group support and energy work on this call. It's part of a new series of monthly free teleclasses on "Your Time To Thrive", designed to share my work more widely, introduce myself to new people and reconnect with my tribe, while creating more uplifting vibrations and community.

Time: 7pm Mountain, 9pm Eastern time. "Get Your Gratitude in Gear" is a one hour teleclass.
It will be recorded. Dial in to: 1-(218) 237-3840 Guest Pin# 134971

I'm so grateful for you...my blog readers!

In gratitude,
Ellen

PS Please invite others to tomorrow night's call...all are welcome!

Today's New Moon and how to use the November energies

2011-10-26T14:33:00.000-07:00

The next several days aregoing to be power packed with energies of letting go and opening to the new, sodo tune in….and know that I am offering a lot of support in November foryou.

Today is the New Moon inScorpio, it is also the start of Diwali, the Indian new year..in which thegoddess Lakshmi, goddess of abundance is honored. As with all new moons, this is a perfect dayto ask yourself: “What do I want to create or manifest at this time, for this 4week cycle and beyond?”

Scorpio, the sign we havejust entered until late December, is about letting go of the old, and movingdeeper into the mysteries of transformation, death and rebirth. We also have the ancient earth-based holidaysof Samhain and All Hallows Eve, the Day of the Dead, as October ends andNovember begins.

What is dying, what iswanting to end, and what is wanting to come in? What are you most wanting to transform so you can give birth to your newself? You can use this time wisely byspending some time alone and going inside, journaling, doing some movement orwhatever helps you find your place of peace and inner wisdom.

I have a number of eventscoming up in November and December that I want to let you know about. A more detailed calendar will go out in justa few days, but here are the highlights:

Nov. 9 will mark a return todoing a monthly free call, and I’m looking forward to it! It will be an introduction for new people anda reunion for many of us who haven’t been on calls together. I will be doing some teaching and energywork, not a full repatterning session, but you will come away shifted—at leastthat’s my goal! These will take placeon the 1^st or 2^nd Wednesday of the month. The overalltopic is “Thrive Your Life” and there will be different themes for eachclass. They will be recorded as well.

Other upcoming sessions andprograms:

11/14: Manifesting Monday session for clearingobstacles (proxy)

11/16: Eating Healthy,Staying Happy: Stress free holiday eating and celebrations (phone or proxy)

11/20: Aligned for MercuryRetrograde ( proxy)

11/21-25: Joyful ManifestingIntensive (5 day proxy program of energy shifts to help you manifest twogoals).

Inclosing, this quote from astrologer Robert Wilkinson (Google the Aquariuspapers for his website):

“Begenerous of Spirit, show care, and the rewards will be great. Be a goodsteward, and build so that the good works will endure well into the future.This month we get new views on how we can join with others to conquer a form of"separativeness through group-cooperation." Through the projects weaccept that truly help others, we can lose all sense of separateness.

Thistime should be fairly productive, even if there is a lot of tension andseparations from illusions. Cooperation breeds evolution, and problems can besolved by applied cooperative intelligence and skills. Find projects thatbenefit the evolutionary needs of self and/or others, and this time of appliedskill will yield rewards by late November and early December.”

What Else is Possible?

2011-10-12T11:11:00.000-07:00

Our subconscious mind is programmed to fill in the blank when we ask open ended questions...it does not like to have something dangling at the end of a sentence, unanswered.

Instead of "Why can't I do better?" or "Why isn't what I want to happen, happening?" or "Why isn't he or she more understanding?" which keep us locked into the problem, we can switch to solution focus by asking open ended "How" questions.

My favorite two questions of the moment are used in powerful work called Access Consciousness. They are:

"What Else is Possible?" and "How Does it Get Any Better than This?"

Let me know how your life changes when you start using them..and I'll do the same!

Many blessings,
Ellen

The Turning Point: Full Moon Update

2011-10-11T21:15:00.000-07:00

Tonight is a full moon..a great time to name and release whatever you are ready to let go of. This is why I'm being guided to offer sessions that clear the roots of our issues at the oldest and deepest levels... Ancestral Patterns and clearing past life karma. It's time for THE CHANGE, to become who we are meant to be without all that baggage. To learn more about what I'm offering, visit my website at http://www.repattern.com/Ancestral_Alchemy.shtml

The full moon seems especially auspicious because of this month's theme according to shamanic healers and intuitives, Jose and Lena Stevens. The theme for the month of October is the "Turning Point." They give a simple exercise in the excerpt below to help you align with the theme of the month. Enjoy!

Excerpted from their monthly forecast which can be found at www.thepowerpath.com:
The main theme for October 2011 is Turning Point.

"The image is that of facing a well-known view, in fact a view you have become so accustomed to you hardly notice it anymore. And now you have just realized that you are turning away from this view 90 degrees to the right and leaving it completely behind in order to face a new view. Suddenly it dawns on you that the old view will be gone forever, never to be seen again in the same way. There is nostalgia around the permanence of the loss of this old view. It is familiar to you and it has served to inspire, entertain, give you feedback and be a placeholder in your life.

You realize that once you turn towards the new view the old one is gone forever. And despite the inadequacies of the old view in matching a new time, there is a resistance to giving it up and turning towards the unknown. What if the new view isn't as good as the old one? What if you won't be able to see the new view? What if it is not a clear view, or an inspiring one? What if there is no new view?

The Turning Point can also be called the Point of No Return. When one season ends and another begins, as in moving from Summer to Fall, there is no going back. You have passed the point of no return. And as you move clockwise around the medicine wheel from one direction to the next, you are at a point of no return as you arrive at the new position or direction.

The natural progression in moving forward is always clockwise or to your right. That is the way the clock works, the seasons roll, and wheels move forward. So we are at the point of turning clockwise into a new landscape providing us with a new view.We have been creating this new view for a while now. We just have not turned our sights on it as yet.

The new view has been waiting for our much-needed focus on it to come into being and we are just now at that point but some of us still unwilling to make the final turn. What we do not realize in our resistance is that the new view is fabulous, inspiring, supportive and perfect for where we need to go. However in order to see the new view we must turn away from the old one and turn towards the new one. This is happening whether you are choosing to or not. We are truly at the Turning Point right now.

Another image to work with is the idea of the Turning Point as the point at which there is enough energy moving in a certain direction to insure a result. If you have been ill and are recovering, there is turning point in your illness where you are insured a recovery. The same thing applies to an ending or a death. There is a certain turning point at which there is a certainty about the outcome. When a lot of energy is being put into building a business or starting a project, or cultivating a relationship, there is always a turning point at which it either takes off or you see that it won't work.

This month you have the opportunity to experience turning points in many aspects of your life. Perhaps you have set certain intentions, and worked with them over time. This month you may get to experience a turning point in manifesting those intentions. Other themes of the month are Transition/Transformation and Death/Rebirth. Transition/Transformation and Death/Rebirth are similar in that they both use the turning point to move from one point to another. The main characteristic of this change as a turning point is that there is finality to the ending of one experience that automatically turns you towards another one.

What is the experience of the Turning Point trying to teach us this month? What we need to learn is to be more present so we can fully embrace what is in front of us and then let it go with gratitude for the experience it provided. We need to learn to be less attached so that we can turn away from the old view and toward the new one with less resistance. We also need to learn to be more trusting and confident that the view we are creating that we are turning toward is exactly what we want and need. We need to face this view with confidence, enthusiasm and excitement instead of with fear.

Many of you know that there is a marker at the end of this month that marks the official end of the Mayan Calendar, namely the date of October 28, 2011. There are many predictions about what may happen at this time. Some predict 3 days of darkness, some predict major earth changes, some predict that nothing significant will happen, and other predict that the changes will be mostly personal, emotional and psychological

October 28, 2011 is simply a marker as it is impossible to predict what the Turning Point will manifest. What we can predict is change and transition that brings us all beyond the point of no return. How the month shows up: YOU PERSONALLY Use the month to get present. Use the month to fully take in your experiences with gratitude and use the month to fully release what you are turning away from.

You may go through feelings of nostalgia, sadness and even some grief, much of it general and not really connected to anything. Nostalgia is in the air as we are turning towards a new view. See and experience everything with presence. Practice saying goodbye to what you know, and hello to the unknown view ahead. This is an incredible time where you can experience the turning point towards the positive in many areas you have put energy into.

It is a good month for manifesting especially something you have been putting your focus into for a long time. You may also feel compelled to finally let go of what is holding you back from that new view. Make friends with death and the finality of its lessons.

A good exercise to do daily would be to face a literal view that you are familiar with and then to turn 90 degrees to your right, trying on the experience that you will never see the old view again. Take in the beauty and wonder of the new view and see its possibilities as positive and supportive. Do this as many times during the day wherever you are to practice the experience of the turning point."

Wishing you an incredible journey through this month of change and beyond,
Ellen

Riding the Waves in these Wacky Times

2011-09-20T12:32:00.000-07:00

I am back to posting here, after a strange and challenging summer. What's it been like for you? Time--and life--are moving faster than ever, and we are being constantly challenged to stay centered as things change and fall apart all around us. As a client said recently "Everything I ever believed in has fallen away. It's hard to know what to believe anymore." She lost her business, her home and her relationship within 3 months.

Many of us have or are experiencing loss, although hopefully it isn't as intense for you as it was for this client. Support is vital, though it can feel like we have even less money to spend on that...which is why I will be offering lower cost group sessions and programs to provide that support in addition to private sessions.

I will also continue my focus on helping you clear blocks to bringing cash in, and to manifesting money, clients, an intimate relationship or the quality of relationships that you want

The next Joyful Manifesting Intensive begins on September 26th and it's 5 days in a row of repatterning work to clear your obstacles..the beliefs, memories and subconscious counter intentions that sabotage you, etc.
Clearing the "stuff" that blocks the Law of Attraction from working for you.

So, happy to be back!

Many blessings,
Ellen

Are You Taking Up Too Much Room?

2011-09-19T18:29:00.000-07:00

Probably not—but in the name of being polite or “nice”, you may be acting like you do. Certain automatic habits, like constantly apologizing, shrink your presence and energy field unnecessarily. Women are especially trained to apologize almost constantly, but we are all subject to this sorry epidemic.

I noticed this in two incidents this weekend. First, standing around my kitchen at home, my guest kept apologizing for being in my way, making dirty dishes, etc. Finally I said, “why are you sorry? All you’re doing is being here..and you are welcome in my kitchen.. no need to apologize."

Even more blatantly, last night, at a friend’s house, another guest needed to use the sink which I happened to be leaning against. He said, “I’m sorry but I need to get in there.”

Again, I asked “why are you saying sorry? It’s okay to need something. All you needed to do was say excuse me."

Even the phrase "excuse me" is self effacing.

It’s this reflex of apologizing…for asking someone else to move, to do something for you, for “being in the way"..I think it trains us to put ourselves down or act like what we should be is invisible.

Does being polite mean apologizing for our existence?

We are trained to put others first, but do we have to cut ourselves out of the picture altogether with our “don’t mind me, I’m just trying to exist in as small a box as possible” apology habit?

What do you think?

Manifest Your Mate - Session 3 - Clearing/Releasing/Redefining Our Relationship Legacy from our parents

2011-07-18T10:53:00.000-07:00

Manifest Your Mate Session 3: Clearing Negative Beliefs/Examples from Our Parent’s Marriage

Intentions:

I discriminate between what is useful and positive from my parents’ example and what is de-energizing, outmoded and inappropriate. I chose that which is inspiring and life affirming.

I recognize that much of what my parents taught me is not appropriate for current day relationships and I open to a new paradigm for intimate relationship.

I am free to redefine and choose, in co-creation with my partner, the forms and patterns of relating that work for each of us, now.

Compensation Repatterning:

This Repatterning addresses compensation patterns that we developed, usually in childhood, to compensate or make up for the lack of love or positive attention that we experienced.

Compensation: Niceness
(non-coherent) Who I am is unacceptable
(coherent) People like and accept me when I am honest and genuinely myself with them

Compensation: Insecurity
(non-coherent) I have to hold onto my father’s attention/a man’s attention so he won’t leave me
(coherent) I feel secure even when there is silence in a conversation

Water Element Repatterning

This is one of the Relationship Repatternings and addresses imbalances in the water element. When our water element is out of balance we may be stuck, frozen, fearful and unable to access our own power and energy reserves.

What stops me from having the relationship I want is:

Believing I want too much/believing what I want doesn’t exist/ believing I can’t have what I want/ Negative expectations of relationships based on the past

I am afraid of being loved/commitment/not being worthy/disaster/metal

Non-coherent qualities of the water element blocking us:

I lack the energy to commit to what I want
I have low energy relationships based on control issues

Non-coherent earlier experience:

Age: 28 months/ involved parents/Something traumatic happens to one of my parents, or between them/big emotional shock in the family/I am not comforted or reassured

Feeling: Terrified
Unmet needs: Love bonding/Being heard/Self expression
Beliefs that resulted: I have to be good/I have to be quiet/I have to clamp down my feelings

Body position reflecting this: Hunched over, hands on belly, protecting belly

Feeling: Fear, dread

What is the new thing you can tell yourself about relationships?

I am open to new, fulfilling possibilities in relationship that far surpass my parents’ example or even my own past relationship history

Body position reflecting this: Open hearted, warrior stance
I live and relate from the power of my essence
Feelings: Optimistic/Encouraged

Acupuncture points done for you: Lg Intestine 11 (right side) while affirming “I joyfully release the past”

Relationship Modality for Water: Receiving Reassurance

From the Divine Mother: “You are perfect. I love you just as you are.”
From the Divine Father: “You are my beloved. I cherish and care for you always.”

Positive Actions:
This positive action is to be completed within the next week if possible. If you are overwhelmed or still working on previous positive actions, check in with yourself about doing this one now. What do you sense or feel intuitively, or in your gut about this one…I encourage you to follow that, and I can also test for you if you can’t get clear, as to whether these actions should be done now or later. I am testing that this particular set of positive actions may also be completed at the end of the 7 session series.

Step 1—this was previously provided, so if you’ve done it, move on to step 2. If not, go ahead now...

If you have photos of your parents, or if they are alive, just imagine them in your mind’s eye. What do you imagine were or are their beliefs about marriage and about the relationships between the sexes? What don’t you like, what upsets you, about how they related? What promises, vows or commitments did you make to yourself about relationships or marriage from being around your parent’s relationship?

Step 2: Ritual release: based on your explorations above, write down on small pieces of paper, what you want to release about your parent’s marriage. Then, when you are ready and in a ritual “space”, read these things out loud, and declare:

I now joyfully and completely release these beliefs, any pain or trauma these beliefs have caused, from my system, knowing they no longer serve me.

Continue with your ritual release by burning the pieces of paper safely, (Common sense: make sure anything you use to handle the fire won’t get too hot for you, and that you are not in a windy place or where the burning paper could fly off and start a fire, make sure there is ventilation, and that you’re away from flammables, smoke alarms, etc.). If this is not safe to do, or not feasible, you can tear the papers into small pieces and release them into the ocean or flush them away.

Things to Notice: As you complete the ritual, take a pause to notice. Breathe, relax your body and notice your sensations. Is there a sense of more relaxation, peace, safety, lightness and letting go? Take a pause to savor and enjoy, knowing you have made room for the new!

c)Optional additional positive action:
Is there anything positive that you have learned from your parents' example, or that your parents modeled, that you would like to keep and even build further on? What is their positive relationship legacy to you?

Session is complete.

Manifest Your Mate - Session 2 Positive Actions

2011-07-13T14:55:00.000-07:00

Manifest Your Mate –Your Homework of Positive Action from Session 2

a)This positive action is to be done just one time, within the next week. Take some time with this one. This contemplation is for you to explore, think about, and journal about, so you can come to completion with what has been hurtful or unresolved in your relationship with your mother.
The purpose is not to delve in-depth again into the painful history, but to see what the gold nuggets are that you have or can "mine" from that history.

Note: If this is something you have not done before, this may be a subject to explore for some time, beyond the time frame of this program and this one-time positive action. You may also want to bring this exploration to your private healing work with me or other practitioners you work with. For some of you, this may be a summary and recap..but always worth looking at. Here are the questions:

What is the truth, higher purpose or lesson that your mother provides or provided for you? What qualities have you developed in yourself as a result of that relationship? What did she teach you? Example: “My mother teaches me the importance of being loving and accepting of myself and others” “My mother teaches me the value of life and of treasuring each day”. She might have taught this by example or by an example of what NOT to do,be or say.

b)Things to Notice: During your interactions with people, and when you are alone, begin to notice whether your thoughts, attitudes and behaviors are loving to yourself. Is your self talk critical, or accepting and encouraging? How would you treat yourself differently if you could act like a very loving, attentive and and caring mother? Do you deflect or minimize praise and appreciation from others? How much more love, compliments, help, and other good stuff are you willing to take in from other people, and from yourself?

c)Action: Rampage of Appreciation…write down as many things about yourself that you enjoy and appreciate as you can, at least 6. Add to the list throughout the day.

Express out loud to someone else (or in writing) what you appreciate about them or something they did—2x per day. This one is to be done for the next 3 days..start when you read the notes.

d)Optional: Repeat Deservability Prayer daily for 7 days, best out loud, to another person or the mirror.

DESERVABILITY TREATMENT - a prayer from the Unity Church

I am deserving. I deserve all good. Not some, not a little bit, but all good. I now move past all negative restricting thoughts. I release and let go of the limitations of my parents. I love them and I go beyond them. I am not their negative opinion, not their limiting beliefs. I am not bound by any of the fears or prejudices of the current society I live in. I no longer identify with limitations of any kind.

In my mind I have total freedom. I now move into a new space of consciousness, where I am willing to see myself differently. I am willing to create new thoughts about myself and about my life. My new thinking becomes new experiences.

I now know and affirm that I am at one with the Prospering Power of the Universe. As such, I now prosper in a number of ways. The totality of possibilities lies before me. I deserve life, a good life. I deserve love, an abundance of love. I deserve good health. I deserve to live comfortably and to prosper. I deserve joy and happiness; I deserve freedom to be all that I can be. I deserve more than that. I deserve all good.

The Universe is more than willing to manifest my new beliefs. And I accept this abundant life with joy, pleasure and gratitude, for I am deserving. I accept it; I know it to be true.
And so it is.

Manifest Your Mate - Session 2 Notes - Feeling Deserving, Lovable & Worthy of being loved

2011-07-13T14:48:00.000-07:00

Session 2 Overview and Details of session notes

Overview of Session:

With this topic, it is not surprising that our relationship with our mother was the focus. Our first experiences of bonding and parenting (whether with our biological mother or another caregiver) imprint us with our sense of safety, of being loved and wanted, of being connected. From this relationship our infant selves form a fundamental sense of whether we are loved, wanted, accepted and welcomed—or not.

When I re-read the session notes again after having completed the Parental Repatterning for repatterning our primary mother imprints, the numerous negative beliefs and concepts that we are resonating with in relationship to an intimate partner, make perfect sense in light of mothering that did not meet our basic needs. This is not to trash anyone’s mother—most of our mothers were doing the best they could with what they had—but simply to finally clear those old imprints and resonate with the kind of loving mothering energy that helps us feel loved and secure and so that we can attract, be at ease with, and actually receive love from healthy caring partners.

If you are a woman seeking a relationship with a man, then usually it is the case that our father issues will impact our choices and outcomes in relationships, but our primary experience of mothering (again whether it was from our actual birth mother or another primary caretiver)and early bonding will most profoundly determine how lovable we feel and our ability to feel safe and relax into love, as well as form nourishing supportive bonds in our lives with partners and others.

Detailed Session notes:

Problems/Issues:

The person I want doesn’t want me
I don’t believe the soulmate I intend to attract would perceive me as a match
I don’t truly feel worthy and able to sustain a long term relationship with someone I really love
Once my soulmate truly sees who I am, he will reject/leave/abandon me
There is no such thing as a truly healthy happy relationship so I might as well give up now
Even if/when I find my soulmate, it won’t last – s/he will die or leave; nothing good ever lasts

Intentions:

It is possible for me to be one of the blessed ones who finds their soulmate and enjoys happiness with him/her

I let go of unrealistic and ungrounded romantic ideals for the joys and pleasures of a growing, authentic intimate partnership

I let go of expecting the impossible from my soulmate/the opposite sex

I let go of either of us having to be perfect and celebrate our divine humanness

I know I am capable of having, worthy and deserving of an amazing, paradigm-shifting relationship

Repatterning: The Parental Repatterning

This repatterning helps transform our non-coherent (negative) patterns in relationship to, or in reaction to, our mothers.

What was the core issue in your relationship with your mother? My mother was unable to provide unconditional nurturing and soothing / My mother was not able to be fully present and bond with me at a heart and soul level

What qualities did you not like in your mother? My mother is critical, aloof, judgemental and unable to see me for who I am

Do you have any of these qualities? I am critical, judgemental of myself and unable to see myself clearly for who I am

What were the developmental needs that were not met or that were provided for negatively?

I force you to be at a different stage of development than you are actually at/I disrespect you/I put you down

What was the feeling response? I feel hurt, ashamed and want to escape

Beliefs that resulted:

I am always wrong / I can’t please anyone, especially the ones closest to me / I am useless

Trauma reflex: I overcompensate to avoide pain even though the original pain is no longer present

What is the % of non-coherent energy we have as a consequence of this imbalanced mother relationship? I have 94% non coherent frequency patterns in relation to my mother (this changed by the end of the session to 0% noncoherent).

As a result of this, I have 6% coherent energy available for…Feeling good about myself/Feeling lovable/Having a warm, open loving relationship with my partner/Sexual and emotional fulfillment (Shifted to 100% by the end of the session)

What is the compensation patterns we developed to make up for the lack of needs being provided?

I separate myself from others because my needs will never be met
I feel I must sympathize or agree with you because if I say the truth you’ll reject me
I am weak willed

Planetary frequency involved:
Mercury –non-coherent – I communicate ineffectively

I understand my mother treated me this way because she was not appropriately mothered herself and had distorted perceptions of what good mothering is.

Positive developmental mother messages we need to hear and resonate with:
You can trust me / I am always here for you

Self healing modalities:
Palming / Color lenses – green-visualize green in our hearts
There are several positive actions from this session, do them as you can!

They will be provided in a separate email.

Manifest Your Mate Session 1 Notes

2011-07-08T12:36:00.000-07:00

Session 1, July 7: It’s Safe to Love – Overcoming Fear of Love and Intimacy

Issues/Problems:
Love never works out for me, so why bother?
Love is painful
Being in an intimate relationship is too confining
Being with a partner means giving up my selfhood and sovereignty
I hate being vulnerable / I can’t trust or depend on love
I disappear in relationships
I don’t trust when someone is good to me or expresses love and affection towards me
I am always waiting for the other shoe to drop
I never attract a suitable and available partner who truly wants to be with me
Negative feelings: Fear/Dread/Insecurity/Anxiety
I don’t listen to my inner guidance or body knowing about whether someone is good for me
I am in conflict between wanting love and pushing it away
I totally accept the present challenging situation (the current relationship I’m in, the type of man I’m meeting, or my lack of relationship) free of self-pity and anger

New Possibility Intention:
I recognize my fear of love as an outdated survival strategy and I release it with compassion.
I am willing to experiment with new ways of seeing and imagining love relationships.
I seek out inspiring and uplifting examples of successful relationships and declare “This, or something even better, that’s for me!”

Repatterning: Healing the Family System Part II – Repatterning for Receiving
This Repatterning addresses blockages and other kinds of non-coherence around receiving what we need, what is helpful, beneficial and nurturing for us. Some of the concepts in this Repatterning are based on the Family Constellation principles which I will explain in brief in italics, just after the statement. All statements or reference to content are direct quotes or derived from “Healing the Family System II” by Carin Block.

Intentions around Receiving:

I receive what benefits and nurtures me from my partner

Non-coherence around Receiving:

I intend for my partner to assume responsibility for my well -being and happiness.
[In Constellation thinking, this is non-coherent in that we are the ones who are responsible for our own well-being].

I deny my circumstances
[We can only really be at peace and open to receiving when we acknowledge and accept our current circumstances rather than fighting them]

Instead of taking my parents, I choose to ask my partner for what I need in solving my problems.
[“Taking our parents” is a Constellation principle which says we must accept, receive and acknowledge our connection to our parents and ancestors in order to have a happy, healthy life. It does NOT mean condoning or taking in their harmful or negative behaviors or energy].

I exclude my ancestors
[Similarly, we must include all of our ancestors, by acknowledging our blood, DNA and energetic connection to our lineage, whether we like who they were/what they did, or not]

I am intolerant and critical

My partner expects me to do what s/he tells me to do

Out of love for my parents, I fail at relationships
[This refers to the concept of systemic loyalty, where for the sake of belonging or being loyal to our family and “what we do in OUR family”, we may limit ourselves in some way]

Earlier experience related to blockages in receiving:
14 months old with our mother/caregiver
I experience alternating periods of smothering and neglect, making me confused and disoriented. I cannot trust her to be there when I need her and so love feels shaky to me.

Unmet needs: Rest/Sunlight/Freedom to express feelings/Ecstasy

Negative belief about love that resulted:
Love is erratic and undependable; I can’t trust it
Love comes and goes for no reason and I am helpless to stop it from leaving

Coherence around receiving:
I am in charge of my life
I accept that there are issues in which my partner cannot help me.
I face problems with wisdom and keep myself centered.
What I receive from my partner satisfies me
I perceive myself as part of my family system
I am loving and tolerant
My partner shares my joy and pain and respects my individuality
I am worthy and receive what benefits and nurtures me
Out of love for my parents I am successful at love

Modalities (from Healing the Family System):

Note: these have been recorded for you so you can listen and do these modalities yourself. That is optional, as the modalities have already been done for you by proxy.
#1: Empowering Statements: (Statements to be spoken/heard aloud)
Listen and follow along here:
http://tinyurl.com/4296w3p:

Imagine your father saying to you:
“I bless you to live in abundance and hold onto or grow your money”
“I give you a place in my heart”
Imagine now saying to your mother:
“Even if you leave, I stay in life”
“I give you a place in my heart”
“I accept and honor my destiny.”

#2: Fusing Symbols: The Adventurer
Here we “fuse” or integrate the energy of different archetypes or symbols. Again, this was recorded for you so you can do it yourself by listening to the recording, but it’s optional as this was done for you by proxy.
Listen here:

http://tinyurl.com/3hnvkzy:

Here are the directions:
“Close your eyes and relax. Create an image that symbolizes the Adventurer. You can imagine the Adventurer as a person, a light, a figure, a landscape, whatever you wish. S/he is naïve, inexperienced and candid. S/he embarks on his/her path without concerns, goes joyfully through life learning many things in order to evolve. S/he represents the void, the nothingness that appears at the beginning or end of the path, when wisdom is attained. S/he is nonchalant, spontaneous and enthusiastic. S/he looks for adventure and comes up with dazzling ideas. Sometimes s/he can go a little mad.”

Notice your image or sensation. Whatever you perceive is okay. Notice any details that make this more vivid and tangible for you.

Now, contact your heart, and say to the Adventurer, “now I see you and acknowledge what you are and what you represent: The Adventurer. You are naïve, inexperienced and candid. You embark on your path without concerns, you go joyfully through life and learn many things in order to evolve. You are the void, the nothingness that appears at the beginning and end of the path when wisdom is attained. You are nonchalant, spontaneous and enthusiastic. I now choose to take everything you give me, I am nourished by you and do something good with this. I give you a place in my heart and honor you.”

Now, take a bow or incline your head. This reverence represents honoring and accepting the Adventurer with everything s/he is and everything s/he gives you.

Finally do the open heart gesture (see below). Breathe in and fuse the Adventurer in your body, place him/her where you feel most comfortable. By doing so, you know have access to all the resources of the Adventurer and can use them for the greatest good.”

Open heart gesture: (The following is from Chloe Wordsworth’s Modalities book, paraphrased).

The open heart gesture is a movement that opens up the radiant energy field of the heart to giving/radiating and feeling/receiving love. According to Heart Math, this field can extend as much as 300 feet beyond and around the body! Stand up, and take some deep breaths. As you breathe, extend your arms out to either side as though you were embracing someone in a very wide hug. Feel yourself opening your heart wide to radiate and give love. Then, with another breath, bring your hands and arms in towards your own heart, receiving your own love and the love energy that is available to you from other people and Source. Go back and forth a few times, radiating love, then receiving it.

Doesn’t it feel great?

Positive Actions:
a)Action: Each morning, do the Open Heart Gesture 3x, as you do so imagine opening your heart up to radiate and receive love.

b)Things to Notice: Throughout the day, notice how open or closed you feel to express or receive love and affection, and as you become aware, come back to the open heart gesture. You may need to focus especially on opening your heart to yourself.

Manifest Your Mate: Session 1 Additional information

2011-07-08T12:26:00.000-07:00

Our topic: It’s Safe to Love – Overcoming the fear of Love and Intimacy

This pattern is described quite thoroughly in Phyllis Light’s book, “Love Now, Here’s How”. The following are excerpted from her book.

Common Signs that you have this pattern:

Avoiding relationships/not wanting to get involved
Feeling abused/attracting abusive partners
Leaving relationships when they get too good
Feeling as if you’re going to die because you are in a loving relationship
Feeling as if you aren’t okay in others’ eyes, and therefore not allowing them to be nice, kind or loving to you
Avoiding or finding fault with someone who is interested in you
Pushing away a man/woman who loves you
Feeling as if you can’t have love here, and therefore you resist getting to know people who are kind and loving to you
Maintaining long distance relationships or relationships with unavailable partners
Not wanting to settle down with one person
Avoiding intimacy in relationships
Being unable to be intimate with your partner (or vice versa)
Creating superficial relationships
Being a bachelor or loner

How did this pattern come about and how does it tend to operate in your life?
This pattern clearly keeps relationships from working out for you. You might have a fear of love if the love you experienced as a child was mingled with threats to your safety in some way. For example, if your parents physically, mentally or emotionally abused you, and that was your first experience of love, understandably, you may fear love or prefer to live without it.

If your parents were overbearing, unreasonably demanding, or frequently made you do things you really didn’t want to do, you may have felt overburdened, overpowered, or suffocated by love. If such was the case, you are probably inclined to resist love in any form.

The problem is that because of your negative programming about love, you are convinced that love is to be avoided at all costs. You are not truly open to creating a loving relationship with another because you are so fearful of the consequences of being that close to someone again. Your early experiences with “loving” relationships taught you to stay away from them, as a way to ensure your survival and sanity.

With this pattern you also may avoid people who treat you kindly and lovingly, because you are so accustomed to being treated poorly by the ones who “loved” you as a child, and the positive attention is totally unfamiliar. You may find yourself choosing pain over pleasure again and again, because the mind always gravitates toward the familiar. Your “inner computer” is “wired” to continually attract the poor, neglectful, unloving, abusive or smothering treatment.

Manifest Your Mate--juicy stuff ahead!

2011-07-05T10:20:00.000-07:00

I hope you have already done your Attract Your Soulmate ritual..that is, if you are wanting to attract new love into your life, or shift your present relationship to a richer, happier and more fulfilling one!

Just scroll down to the blog post immediately before this one and you'll find the written directions.

Manifest Your Mate begins on July 7th, and as it approaches, I am fleshing out the program more. My friends, this is JUICY. I have been working with manifesting, and with manifesting relationships, for years and have a wealth of background and resources to share with you.

Based on my own knowledge, and using Dr. Phyllis Light's book "Love Now: Here's How--26 Roadblocks to Healthy Relationships" and inspired by "Calling in the One" by Katherine Woodward Thomas, here are the topics for the sessions--the goal first, followed by what we are clearing:

Session 1) It’s Safe to Love: Overcoming Fear of Love/Intimacy
Session 2) I Deserve Love: Feeling Lovable, Worthy and Deserving of Love
Session 3)Clearing Beliefs from Parents/Parents Marriage,
Session 4)Clearing Beliefs about Relationships, Romance, Marriage from the culture
Session 5)Embracing my authentic self: Fear of Being Dominated/Loss of Self
Session 6)Keeping my Power and Healthy Boundaries: Fear of Being Used/Manipulated
Session 7)Opening to Greater Trust and Surrender: Feeling out Of Control in Love

Here's a sample of the self-exploration work and positive actions that will be assigned: This is the assignment for Session 2, to give you a sample of the kinds of stuff we'll be doing in the program:

Positive Action: Receptivity to Love, Self Love and the “good stuff”

a)Things to Notice: During your interactions with people, and when you are alone, begin to notice whether your thoughts, attitudes and behaviors are loving to yourself. Is your self talk critical, or accepting and encouraging? How would you treat yourself differently if you could act like a very loving, attentive and and caring mother? Do you deflect or minimize praise and appreciation from others? How much more love, compliments, help, and other good stuff are you willing to take in from other people, and from yourself?

b)Action: Rampage of Appreciation…write down as many things about yourself that you enjoy and appreciate as you can, at least 6. Add to the list throughout the day. Express out loud to someone else (or in writing) what you appreciate about them or something they did—2x per day.

c)Optional Additional Action: Repeat Deservability Prayer daily for 7 days, best out loud, to another person or the mirror.

Doesn't it sound great? I'm so excited! Please register now and share this blogpost with others. Go to: http://www.repattern.com and tab over to Manifest Your Mate.

Happy manifesting y'all,
Ellen

Ritual for Clearing & Attracting Your Soul Mate

2011-06-30T13:05:00.000-07:00

I am happy, grateful and excited to be offering a special ritual via teleclass tomorrow, at the New Moon and Solar Eclipse, Friday July 1st, at 10am Mountain time, 12 noon Eastern time. According to Vedic astrologers, this is a very auspicious time to be doing this ritual.

I personally feel quite strongly that now is the time to bring my soulmate in, and that many, many of us have been preparing, praying and longing and it's time. In the Soulmate Summit that took place earlier this year, over 60,000 people were registered for teleclasses or participated in a Facebook group. That's a MOVEMENT, my friends!

The timing, and the ritual itself, was inspired by Arielle Ford, who's written a book on Attracting your Soulmate and is leading a workshop at the Omega Center in New York this very weekend. She very generously shared an outline of a fire ceremony (much like the many fire ceremonies and Vedic rituals I participated in over my 20+ years on the path of Siddha yoga meditation) which I will modify to suit the teleclass format and have also adapted based on my own guidance.

I was also inspired to finally get it out there--Manifest Your Mate, a 21 day program of proxy or distance energy sessions along with self-discovery processes, which will begin on July 7 officially. But doing the ritual, either with us on July 1 or at any time on or before July 7, will really start the program for you. More about that in my next post!

First, some basics about how this is all going to work.
1) Teleclass will take place July 1, at noon Eastern (DST); 10 am Mountain time. The number to dial into is: 1-559-546-1700 Access: 824128#

2) If you can, please read through the outline below and take some time to
prepare for the ritual. It should not take more than a 1/2 hour to hour, so do the preparation when you are in a quiet place where you won't be interrupted. If you don't have time, it's okay, just show up to the call.
If you won't be on the call, you can still do this ritual on your own schedule, EITHER by reading through the outline and doing this on your own, or by listening to the teleclass where the group does the ritual together, via the recording I will provide. It will be powerful if you do it alone, and magnified if you do it with at least one other person. (wherever two or more are gathered..)

3) Preparing for the ritual:
You may use a candle, or even create a small fire in a metal bowl or oustide, if you can do this safely. I will be using a candle. If you do not wish to use an actual candle or fire, you may visualize a fire and do this symbolically. Also gather a bowl or sacred vessel, and fill half to 2/3 with water. Have an extra vessel and also a pitcher, jar or other container of water ready as well. You will also want to have a pen and paper handy.

Find something you can use to make an offering to the fire. This might be sage, tobacco, other herbs, flower petals, small pieces of paper (be careful if doing this outside as burning paper tends to blow away easily), corn or other grain,or some cooked food. Whatever feels right.

Beyond this, create a sacred space with any other objects or images that you would like to have around you that connect you with Spirit, with joy, love and your own heart. If sage, incense or essential oils are things you enjoy, bring them in. You may keep this as simple or ornate as you like.

When you have created your sacred space, take a few minutes to relax your body, shakout any tension or anxiety, and then breathe deeply in through the soles of your feet, letting the breath sweep through your body from the inside, like a fresh breath of wind. The breath moves up from your feet, cleansing and clearing any toxic or stale energies, emotions and thought forms, and then you exhale it out from your mouth, releasing any constrictions on the exhale. Do 1-3 rounds of this cleansing breath.

4) You may do these contemplations ahead of time, or while you are actually doing the ritual. These contemplations may also be useful to do again later on if you find there is rich material there. These are some of the things I will be addressing in the Manifest Your Mate program as well.

Round 1: Appreciation/Regrets--Offering & Release:
Take some time to acknowledge and appreciate all your past relationships and what you have learned from them. What lessons have you learned, how have you grown, what qualities have been strengthened in you? Then acknowledge anything else you feel grateful for in this moment.
Breathe in the appreciation. Make an offering to the fire, a pinch of whatever you wish to offer, or do it symbolically in your mind, in gratitude for your lessons, for your life, for the earth.

Now take a minute to get in touch with regrets that you may have about the past relationships. Just work with whatever comes first to mind, even though there may be a long list. We can use the power of symbolism and resonance so that we don't have to exhaustively list it all, whatever you come up with can be "proxy" for all the regrets you want to release.

Now, , breathe out what you are ready to release..and then scoop up a little of the water and let it wash over you, rinse your hands with it, or sprinkle the drops. This is using the power of water to cleanse and heal.

Round two: Our prayer for our hearts to be healed of anything that stands in the way of manifesting our soulmate. Write this on a small, clean piece of paper and offer it to the fire--literally or symbolically in your mind. The prayer request will burn, turn to smoke and release into the ethers. This allows the energy of the past to move along to its highest spiritual progression path as we bring in the healing energies.

Optional: You can also speak the words of "whatever stands in the way of manifesting my soulmate" into water, and then pour that water into another cup/bowl/or container. This is using water in additon or instead of fire.

Round 3: This is the prayer for “new” love (or if you are already with your soulmate you can use this ceremony to create a new career or new results in some area of life). On a clean sheet of paper write down your desire and then offer it to the fire, knowing, feeling and trusting that the result you have asked for is already ours. Or use the water method, speaking these things into the water and then pouring it into another vessel.

If you are using water, then go outside and sprinkle/pour the water on the earth (or on your houseplants), releasing this to the earth.

Closure: Take a few minutes to breathe deeply and feel the effects of the ritual. Notice your energy and how you feel. To close the ritual, if it feels right, you can recite the following:

God/Goddess and All That Is, (or use your own language here)

In this moment I am grateful for the healing of my heart of EVERYTHING that would stop me from attracting my soulmate. In this moment I remember that my perfect, right partner is magnetizing to me and my only job is to rest in perfect awareness that their heart is already joined with mine as I
“savor the waiting.”

And so it is.

Wishing you love, laughter, deep soul satisfaction and magical adventures leading up to and beyond the meeting with your soulmate, may you find in form a magnificent reflection of your own Divine Human self.

Many blessings,
Ellen

Three Seeds for the New Reality

2011-05-19T08:20:00.000-07:00

Greetings..finally figured out how to get back into my blog after access problems, so here I am! I am receiving part of a daily message series called "Blooming Humans". It includes this, from Charles Eisenstein's blog..enjoy!

Once upon a time, the tribe of humanity embarked upon a long journey called Separation. It was not a blunder as some - seeing its ravages upon the planet - might think. Nor was it a fall, nor an expression of some innate evil peculiar to the human species. It was a journey with a purpose: to experience the extremes of Separation, to develop the gifts that come in response to it, and to integrate all of that in a new age of Reunion.

But we knew at the outset that there was danger in this journey: that we might become lost in Separation and never come back. We might become so alienated from nature that we would destroy the very basis of life; we might become so separated from each other that our poor egos, left naked and terrified, would become incapable of rejoining the community of all being. In other words, we foresaw the crisis we face today.

That is why, thousands of years ago, we planted three seeds that would sprout at the time that our journey of Separation reached its extreme. Three seeds, three transmissions from the past to the future, three ways of preserving and transmitting the truth of the world, the self, and how to be human.

Imagine you were alive thirty thousand years ago, and had a vision of all that was to come: symbolic language, naming and labeling the world; agriculture, the domestication of the wild, dominion over other species and the land; the Machine, the mastery of natural forces; the forgetting of how beautiful and perfect the world is; the atomization of society; a world where humans fear even to drink of the streams and rivers, where we live among strangers and don't know the people next door, where we kill across the planet with the touch of a button, where the seas turn black and the air burns our lungs, where we are so broken that we dare not remember that it isn't supposed to be this way. Imagine you saw it all coming. How would you help people thirty thousand years thence? How would you send information, knowledge, aid over such a vast gulf of time? You see, this actually happened. That is how we came up with the three seeds.

The first seed was the wisdom lineages: lines of transmission going back thousands of years that have preserved and protected essential knowledge. From adept to disciple, in every part of the world, various wisdom traditions have passed down teachings in secret. Wisdom keepers, Sufis, Taoist wizards, Zen masters, mystics, gurus, and many others, hiding within each religion, kept the knowledge safe until the time when the world would be ready to reclaim it. That time is now, and they have done their job well. The time of secrets is over. Released too early, the knowledge was co-opted, abused, or usually just ignored. When we still had not covered the territory of Separation, when we still aspired to widening our conquest of nature, when the story of humanity's Ascent was not yet complete, we weren't ready to hear about union, connectedness, interdependency, inter-being-ness. We thought the answer was more control, more technology, more logic, a better-engineered society of rational ethics, more control over matter, nature, and human nature. But now the old paradigms are failing, and human consciousness has reached a degree of receptivity that allows this seed to spread across the earth. It has been released, and it is growing inside of us en masse.

The second seed was the sacred stories: myths, legends, fairy tales, folklore, and the perennial themes that keep reappearing in various guises throughout history. They have always been with us, so that however far we have wandered into the Labyrinth of Separation, we have always had a lifeline, however tenuous and tangled, to the truth. The stories nurture that tiny spark of memory within us that knows our origin and our destination. The ancients, knowing that the truth would be co-opted and distorted if left in explicit form, encoded it into stories. When we hear or read one of these stories, even if we cannot decode the symbolism, we are affected on an unconscious level. Myths and fairy tales represent a very sophisticated psychic technology. Each generation of storytellers, without consciously intending to, transmits the covert wisdom that it learned, unconsciously, from the stories told it.

Without directly contradicting the paradigms of separation and ascent, our myths and stories have smuggled in a very different understanding of reality. Under the cover of, "It's just a story," they convey emotional, poetic, and spiritual truth that contradicts linear logic, reductionism, determinism, and objectivity. I am not talking here about moralistic stories. Most of those carry little truth. To transmit the second seed, we must humble ourselves to our stories, and not try to use them for our own moralistic ends. They were created by beings far wiser than our modern selves. If you tell or transmit stories, be very respectful of their original form and don't change them unless you feel a poetic upwelling. Pay attention to which children's literature has the feel of a true story. Most recent kids' literature does not. You can recognize a true story by the way its images linger in your mind. It imprints itself on the psyche. You get the feeling that something else has been transmitted alongside the plot, something invisible. Usually, such stories bear rich symbolism often unknown even to their authors. A comparison of two 20th-century children's books illustrates my point: compare a Berenstain Bears story with How the Grinch Stole Christmas. Only the latter has a psychic staying power, revealing the spirit of a true story, and it is rich with archetypal symbolism.

The third seed was the indigenous tribes, the people who at some stage opted out of the journey of separation. Imagine that at the outset of the journey, the Council of Humanity gathered and certain members volunteered to retreat to remote locations and forgo separation, which meant refusing to enter into an adversarial, controlling relationship to nature, and therefore refusing the process that leads to the development of high technology. It also meant that when they were discovered by the humans who had gone deeply into Separation, they would meet with the most atrocious suffering. That was unavoidable.

These people of the third seed have nearly completed their mission today. Their mission was simply to survive long enough to provide living examples of how to be human. Each tribe carried a different piece, sometimes many pieces, of this knowledge. Many of them show us how to see and relate to the land, animals, and plants. Others show us how to work with dreams and the unseen. Some have preserved natural ways of raising children, now spreading through such books as The Continuum Concept. Some show us how to communicate without words - tribes such as the Hazda and the Piraha communicate mostly in song. Some show us how to free ourselves from the mentality of linear time. All of them exemplify a way of being that we intuitively recognize and long for. They stir a memory in our hearts, and awaken our desire to return.

In a recent conversation, the Lakota Aloysius Weasel Bear told me that he once asked his grandfather, "Grandpa, the White Man is destroying everything, shouldn't we try to stop him?" His grandfather replied, "No, it isn't necessary. We will stand by. He will outsmart himself." The grandfather recognized two things in this reply: (1) That Separation carries the seeds of its own demise, and (2) That his people's role is to be themselves. But I don't think that this is an attitude of callousness that leaves the White Man to his just desserts; it is an attitude of compassion and helping that understands the tremendous importance of simply being who they are. They are keeping alive something that the planet and the community of all being needs.

By the same token, our culture's fascination with all things indigenous is not merely the latest form of cultural imperialism and exploitation. True, the final stage of cultural domination would be to turn Native ways into a brand, a marketing image. And certainly there are some in my culture who, sundered from community and from a real identity, adopt Native pseudo-identities and pride themselves on their connections to Native culture, spirituality, people, and so forth. Underneath that, however, we recognize that the surviving First Peoples have something important to teach us. We are drawn to their gift, to the seed that they have preserved until the present time. To receive this seed, it is not necessary to participate in their rituals, take an animal name, or claim a Native ancestor, but only to humbly see what they have preserved, so that memory may awaken. Until recently, such seeing was impossible for us, blinkered by our cultural superiority complex, our arrogance, our apparent success in mastering the universe. Now that converging ecological and social crises reveal the bankruptcy of our ways, we have the eyes to see the ways of others.

The seeds of Reunion are sprouting everywhere. That which was hidden for millennia is coming to light. Soon, fertilized by the detritus of our decaying civilization, the sprouts will mature, bloom, and bear fruit. Our job is first to receive them, then to spread them everywhere and to guard and foster them with every ounce of our love.

Joyful Manifesting Intensive begins tomorrow! How to get ready?

2011-04-01T10:52:00.000-07:00

I always look forward to our 5 day Manifesting journey which I call the Intensive, because it is 5 days in a row of Resonance Repatterning to clear obstacles. It's different every time, depending on who's in the group and the planetary energies of that particular time.

If this is new to you and you're curious, visit the link above to learn more, or feel free to contact me directly at ProsperityCoachLN@gmail.com.

Here's how to prepare for it:

Find a short bit of time to be alone and get in touch with yourself. Use deep breathing, stretching or whatever you like to do to get into a quiet and receptive mode.

Then ask for, or connect with, two things that feel important, that you would like to manifest in your life now. These two goals or intentions will be what we unblock in the Intensive.

1. The first is your tangible goal..something that would actually exist in a form, that you could see, feel or touch, or recognize when it arrives. (with a business, financial or relationship goal, the outcome might not be something you could physically touch but you would know when it got here.) This relates to the SMART principle of goal setting: a goal should be measurable. The point of this is so you can see a result, or movement towards a result.

For this goal you want to choose something that feels like a bit of a stretch but not outside the realm of possibility.

2. The second is your intangible goal. This is actually more like a state of being, or a beingness goal (is there such a thing?).
For example, peace of mind, being more loving, confidence--any of these could be an intangible goal. They're all great of course, but which quality or way of being would help you the most right now?

State these goals in positive present tense statements, such as:
I am now easily attracting xyz into my life
I am confident

We do this because we are working with the subconscious mind, which does not understand past or present--it only knows the present.

As always, feel free to email me with any questions..and have fun getting your preparation done for the Intensive! If possible try to have this done by tomorrow morning April 2nd. If you don't have time right now, just let it percolate and write down the goals when they come to you. That's a process called retro-intending. I'll explain that another time..

Happy and Joyful Manifesting, y'all!

Wishing you your heart's desires fulfilled for the greatest good of all,
Ellen

Found this inspiring reminder digging in my own (blog)backyard!

2011-04-01T10:38:00.000-07:00

In reading through my own blog (I should do that more, it's pretty darn good imnsho), I found this gem. Full post is on September 10, 2010. (this is a reprint of other's writing btw).

What is expected from each one of us in nothing less than remembering, accepting and integrating in every facet of our existence and within the very fabric of our waking consciousness the fact that we each are a Living Miracle, the embodiment of Universal Perfection, and the co-Maker of our evolving reality.

All we need to do is ask... Ask for an universal upgrade... Ask to have our physical self, brain, bones and blood, adjusted to the higher frequencies now seeping through every atom of our physical reality to catalyze and precipitate the Shift of Ages into an unprecedented era of Heaven on Earth, Blissful Happiness in every soul, and ongoing Communion with the universal family of souls living throughout this galactic Milky Way and beyond in the Grand Symphony of Light, Life and Love

You may choose to remain on the sideline of evolution and persist in sticking to your egoic certainties and separate sense of self. There is absolutely nothing wrong in doing so, for you have absolute freewill, just like every other soul in existence. Or you may choose to shift up towards the Light calling us all back into full remembrance of our truly universal, divine nature."

Staying Protected: Medicines Of Light/Hathor Guidance through Tom Kenyon

2011-03-18T09:04:00.000-07:00

Tom Kenyon is a sound healer, among many other things, and he channels the HHathor guides. They have some great suggestions for how to deal with things like radiation, viruses, neurotoxins...practical things are good too, but we need our conscious tools as well.

A Hathor Planetary Message Through Tom Kenyon

Medicines of Light:

Protection and Healing from Radiation Poisoning, Neurotoxins, Bacteria and Viruses.

With the earthquake in New Zealand, followed by the earthquake in Japan, it is clear that you have entered a more complex phase of the Chaotic Node.

We wish to impart a method for protection and healing from radiation poisoning as well as other physical conditions. We call this Medicines of Light.

This is obviously related to current events unfolding in Japan, however, as future earth changes unfold, you may face similar challenges in your near future from other locations around the world.

This method will assist you to both protect and heal yourself from exposure, not only to radioactivity, but also to neurotoxins and to mutating forms of bacteria and viruses. From our perspective you can expect to see an increase of these in your near timeline.

The method involves connecting to your Celestial Soul, the BA. This action is to connect to the realms of light that are a part of your being.

Everything that exists in your cosmos can be viewed as a qualification or energetic expression of light—even your densest forms of matter are essentially a form of light.

In this method you connect to your Celestial Soul, holding the intent and expectation that it will impart to you an energetic that protects and/or heals you. You send this intent to your Celestial Soul with the emotional vibration of appreciation or gratitude. This is simply the vibrational resonance that activates this higher aspect of your being.

Once you send this intent conjoined with appreciation or gratitude to your BA, you shift your awareness into your heart chakra, receiving the energetic of healing or protection into the heart chakra. You might experience this energetic as a form of light, or as geometric patterns, or you may feel the sensation of a descent of energy. You may also experience this energetic simply as a thought/feeling.

Once the energetic is received in the heart chakra, it is ready to send.

For this phase you will need some pure water, since water holds this type of information extremely well. Holding a container of water in your hands, through intent, you send this energy that is in the heart chakra down the arms into the hands and through the chakras that are in the center of each palm. The energetic enters the water through this pathway.

We suggest you amplify this energetic by repeating the procedure three times, for a total of three times—two more times in addition to the first. You then drink the water. The water permeates the water element of your body, and the healing and protective qualities eventually enter every cell.

Through this action you are qualifying light, causing it to descend through the central pathway of your body into your heart and sending it into the water element. The consciousness of the water receives this energetic, and when you drink it, the body receives it.

If you find yourself in a situation where you have been exposed to radioactivity you would engage this procedure as we have described it, qualifying the energy that descends from the BA to protect and heal you from any possibility of radiation poisoning. If you have other means to protect yourself, you should obviously engage these as well, but even if you are left with nothing but the tools of your own consciousness, you can protect and heal yourself.

If you have been exposed to neurotoxins you would do the same. If you are in the midst of an epidemic that involves bacterial or viral infections, we advise you to do the same.

As you collectively enter more deeply into this more complex and intense phase of the Chaotic Node, bacteria and viruses will mutate faster. This method will allow you to protect and heal yourself from these mutating life forms.

It is important to understand that you are creating the protection and healing through the powers of your own consciousness. You have direct access to your own light realms. You have the sovereign right to engage the light realms on your own behalf and on the behalf of your loved ones.

If you find yourself in one of these difficult situations we have described, we suggest you take the Medicine of Light—which is the water that you have charged—several times a day, as your intuition guides you.

The physical ramifications of the earthquake activity in Japan and the resulting tsunami are very difficult to deal with. But we wish to shift our attention from the physical to the mental, emotional, and spiritual effects created by such a disaster,

Due to the fact that you are in a Chaotic Node and energies from deep space conjoined with solar flare activity are affecting your energy bodies, you, as a collective, are more affected. What we mean by this is that witnessing the suffering of your fellow humans shatters the heart. There is a recognition that their predicament could easily be yours. This recognition can create an opening in your heart, and it is through the heart—your heart—that higher states of consciousness are realized, and so the earthquake in Japan is, in many ways, an earthquake of the collective heart.

The times before you are not easy. From our perspective, increased earth changes are upon you. But one result of such events is that you are shaken to your roots and the mass hypnosis pauses for a moment. And in such utter and surrealistic devastation, many of you see very clearly that your civilization rests on tenuous grounds. We mean this both literally and figuratively.

And so our advice for this phase of the Chaotic Node is to learn and master the ability to create Medicines of Light for yourself, so that when the time arises, you know how to engage this power of protection and healing that you possess in your very nature. And we suggest you navigate through these times not only with your minds, but with your hearts—and let your hearts be touched, for it is through your hearts that you will ascend the spiral pathway to your own greatness.

The Hathors

March 16, 2011

Tom’s Thoughts and Observations

I have been channeling the Hathors for about twenty years now and started posting their Planetary Messages in February of 2003. And in all that time I have never sensed in them such an urgency to post one of their communications. Usually, I am given several days to dwell on and contemplate their messages before writing my comments. But that luxury does not exist in this moment. They have asked Judi and me to post this particular message as soon as possible, and so I will make my comments brief and to the point.

The central message here is that all human beings have the ability to create what the Hathors call Medicines of Light. And this type of medicine has an inherent capability and potential to protect and heal us not only from radioactive poisoning, but also from the effects of neurotoxins, as well as bacterial and viral infections.

The method is simple and to the point. Since some of you reading this may be new to the whole idea of a Celestial Soul (or BA), let me clarify its location and how to engage it. The BA, or Celestial Soul, is an aspect of your own consciousness that is outside the constraints of time and space. Some of you might refer to the Celestial Soul as the Higher Self. But whatever you call it, your Celestial Soul exists in what the Hathors call the light realms, and this aspect of you is engaged whenever you send it appreciation or gratitude.

Your BA does not have a location in time and space since it is transcendent to both.

But it does have an entry point to your energy field, which is about arm’s distance above your head. If you were to raise your hands over your head and touch your fingertips together, your fingers would be in the vicinity of this entry point. And this is where you place your attention in the first phase of their method for creating a Medicine of Light. (Do note that placing of your hands above your head is only for orientation purposes. You do not actually put your hands over your head when creating the Medicines of Light).

Once you place your awareness in the area of your BA point, you hold in your mind the qualification of light you wish to receive. Let’s say, for example, that you have been, or will be, exposed to dangerous forms of radioactivity and are in danger of radiation poisoning. After focusing your attention on your BA point above your head, hold the intent that the energy that descends from your BA will be an energetic of healing and/or protection from radiation poisoning.

You then send the feeling of appreciation or gratitude upward from your heart chakra to the BA point above your head—as you hold the intent or qualification that the energetic imparted to you from your BA will protect and/or heal you from radiation poisoning.

Next you shift your attention from your BA point to your heart chakra (in the center of your chest beneath the sternum) and then wait to receive the energetic of protection and healing from your BA.

Those of you new to this may need to send the intent or qualification along with the feeling of appreciation or gratitude to your BA several times before you notice a response. But just keep sending this intention joined with the feeling of appreciation or gratitude upward to your BA until you feel a descent of energy. When you feel the descent of energy from your Celestial Soul, shift your awareness to your heart chakra. Allow your heart center to receive this energetic of protection and healing.

You then place your hands around or over a container of pure water and send this energetic received from your Celestial Soul into the water. The energetic of healing and/or protection that has entered your heart center will move down your arms and into the water through the two chakras that are in the center of the palm of each hand.

Repeat this process for a total of three times. Then drink the water.

If you are in a precarious situation, the Hathors advise that you create a Medicine of Light several times a day and drink it according to your intuition.

As the Hathors point out, Medicines of Light have many more applications than just protection and healing from radiation poisoning. You can use these to protect and/or heal yourself from neurotoxins, as well as bacterial and viral infections. Although they did not mention it, I asked the Hathors after they gave this message if the method would work for other physical challenges such as cancer. And they said that Medicines of Light could most definitely be created in the same way to deal with this type of situation—as well as others.

Obviously, if you are dealing with a serious situation such as radiation poisoning, exposure to neurotoxins, and/or epidemics of bacterial and viral infections, you will want to avail yourself of all medical remedies. In other words, this method is not meant to replace medical or public health solutions, but is meant to be an adjunct, something you can do yourself—for yourself.

After giving their message, I asked the Hathors about making Medicines of Light for those who are unable to do it for themselves, like children and pets. They said that you would use the same method, except for the fact that you would qualify the intent for the child or animal you are going to give the Medicine to. For example, if you were creating a Medicine of Light to protect or heal yourself from radiation poisoning, you would send the thought that the energetic you are going to receive from your Celestial Soul is for your own personal protection or healing. If you were going to do this for a child or a pet, you would send the thought that the energetic you are going to receive from your Celestial Soul is for the protection or healing of the being you are going to give the Medicine to, i.e. your child or your pet.

It is here that I would like to interject something. It is far better to teach someone how to create a Medicine of Light than to create a dependency. The ability to create Medicines of Light is an inherent ability in all human beings. It is part of our multidimensional legacy. And to empower someone to do this for him or her self is a service to his or her mastery.

I would personally hate to see this method being used by “healers” to create Medicines of Light for others under the guise that they have some special powers that others do not. This method for creating Medicines of Light is a human birthright, and my feeling is that it should be shared with all persons.

There is much that I would like to share about this simple method for creating Medicines of Light, but philosophical and metaphysical observations will have to wait for another time.

The Hathors are insistent that we post this information and circulate it as quickly as is possible.

Full Moon/Spring Equinox update: wowza!

2011-03-16T10:36:00.000-07:00

I'm posting the following information from Jose and Lena Stevens, their site is thepowerpath.com. Another extremely powerful astrological configuration. I keep recalling the words of astrologer Dawn Silver, "These are not normal times!".

FULL MOON UPDATE
3-16-11

The Full Moon is Saturday, March 19 at 12:10 PM (noon) Mountain Daylight Time. This is a super moon with strong energies and very close to the earth. If you can possibly be around a power spot during this moon it would be a benefit. However, you can take advantage of the amazing energies wherever you are. Being so close to the spring equinox, this full moon signifies change and opportunity. Pay attention to any opportunity that has landed your way. If it has come easily perhaps you are prepared to act on it especially if it feels right. This is the time for a bid for power. Know that the planet is different. Our footing has shifted and quite literally. Symbolized by the reactor issue, we are being challenged to manage our own power, overcome our fears and step into a new paradigm. There will always be loss connected with change. Always look to the opportunity rather than what is no longer available. Trust the larger picture and greater design of evolution and know that spirit does not make mistakes.

The Spring Equinox is Sunday, March 20 at 5:21 PM Mountain Daylight Time. Do something to honor the fire element this month. Burn something old that represents not only what you wish to give over from the past few months or weeks, but something from your childhood or from your youth that represents very powerfully an identity of yours that is past. This would also be a great time to identify something you are still attached to and either symbolically or actually burn it. Fire is purifying and signifies complete change and transformation. Fire is also the masculine counterpart to the feminine power of water. Both of these elements are strong this year and should be honored as representing the masculine and the feminine within ourselves. Use them, honor them, and thank them.

Blessings,

Lena

ASTROLOGICAL NOTES:
Written by Patricia A. Liles. PATLILES@aol.com
Virgo Full Moon opposite Pisces Sun 28º Saturday, March 19 12:10 PM MDT
Vernal Equinox, Sunday, March 20, 5:21 PM MDT Sun enters Aries, 1º, First day of Spring

Look to this Full Moon and Spring Equinox as an opportunity to experience a portal of intense power, strength and beauty. Much learning, shift and rebirthing can take place in this time frame. The Full Moon preceding the Equinox by less than a day is preparatory and supports intensified emotional involvement and awareness. Because the Moon is full at 28º late in the sign, we will begin to feel the build up of energy when the Moon shifts into Virgo Thursday afternoon at 2:53 PM MDT. You will feel the intensity viscerally and your awareness of a much larger perspective will come with greater clarity. Added weight is given to this second of six SuperMoons of the year. Added weight in that this SuperMoon is the closest the Moon will be to the Earth (perigee) of all six. °Not until November 2016 will the Moon be this close to Earth. The additional magnetic pull on the Earth affects the globe's waters with extreme tides along the coasts. We too are made primarily of water and experience the concentration and pulling on our psyches.

Towards what are we being pulled? The Full Moon chart points this out clearly. The Sun at 28º Pisces is opposing this exceptional Moon at 28º Virgo, and this Sun/Moon axis squares the North and South Node axis forming a mutable Grand Cross. The North Node represents our point of spiritual growth and learning, where we are drawn to evolve. In this chart the North Node is exactly aligned with the Galactic Center at 27º Sagittarius. The portal points us in the direction of opening emotionally, through our hearts, to an energetic alignment with that pulsing, conscious center of our galaxy availing ourselves to the energies that are evolving our planet at break-neck speed.
If we are aware of this opportunity and make a sacred space and allow time to clearly receive its download, we can be gifted with a general re-set of our entire energetic systems - something we need frequently at this time! (Read more! link here).

How can we be of service right now?

2011-03-15T21:25:00.000-07:00

Hi..like me, you may be wondering what you can do to help or hold light with all the events in Japan. One thing I can do is share inpsiring messages with you, and here's one from Sandra Ingerman, a great teacher of shamanism and someone of great love and integrity. If you want to know more about her you can go to her site (just put her name into Google).

From: Sandra Ingerman

Our hearts expand as we embrace the enormity of all the pain being suffered by the people and all living beings in Japan who have been impacted by the earthquake and the tsunami.

When we feel that our hearts are breaking as we watch levels of suffering in actuality our hearts are expanding allowing us to be stronger and deeper channels of love and light.

Let us journey deep within ourselves transcending our egos and experience the vastness of our spiritual light and love. In this way we become beacons of light and love for all of life in Japan. Let us expand our individual aura and become one with a spiritual pulsation and frequency to transform the radiation that is moving into the atmosphere.

Move out of a place of pity for the suffering you see and focus on the strong spirit of the people, all of life, and the land itself. In this way you project strength which leads to a foundation of support for all in need.

Let us sing songs of love and healing to the earth, the waters of the world, the air, and to the element of fire. Go outside and sing!

There is an extreme level of panic that is being "blasted" into the collective over the fear of radiation moving through our atmosphere.

Of course there are precautions we all must take on a physical level. But it is also important to remember that it is our egos that are moving into panic.

It is crucial right now that you do the spiritual work you have been practicing over the years. Take the time to find your center. Go out and spend lots of time in nature to center and refocus. Breathe deeply and remember that you are spiritual light and have all the tools and internal spiritual wisdom to guide you during this time.

As a global community we do have great power as we work together spiritually. Let us project a vision of healing and peace. Project a vision of cooling for the nuclear reactors and further disaster being avoided.

Do your transfiguration practice daily and throughout the day and experience yourself as divine light. Divine light has the power to transmute and transform all energies into healing energies. For thousands of years mystics and spiritual healers throughout the world have been using this way of working to transmute toxins and illness. Let us carry on the work that has shown itself to have so much potential for healing.

We must strengthen our spiritual connections so that we can always be open to receive spiritual information when we need it.

Spend a lot of time in nature connecting with the elements and the heartbeat of the earth. Reflect on how you can live a way of life that embraces beauty, harmony, honor and respect for all of life. When we as a collective start to live a harmonious way of life we will see the elements around us reflect back a state of harmony.

Learn to read the omens that nature will continue to show to help guide you.

We must learn to honor the rite of passage and initiation that humankind is going through. We are experiencing levels of death on many levels. Death is not an end but rather is a transition.

In the bible it says that without a vision the people will perish. We are the dreamers of our world. Part of living a spiritual way of life is to be able to surrender to our deep spiritual wisdom and be the dreamers to help birth a new vision of a healthy way of life. We need to be able to hold a vision that the collective can move towards as the old is dismembered. Reflect on the vision you want to be projecting into the world right now and make changes to your vision to lead to a desired outcome. Engage your imagination in a more focused way. Project the best for all of life.

Build up your spiritual muscles!

Let us together hold the planet in love.

Remember that the media moves on after covering environmental, political, and economic events. People and all of life are still suffering the effects of the earthquake in Haiti and in New Zealand, the oil spill in the Gulf, the floods in Australia, the extreme weather in the U.S. - these are just to name a few. People in the Middle East are still fighting for freedom.

All of life needs us to be a channel of light, love, and spiritual healing. We are one collective. We are not separate cultures, separate countries. We are going through an initiation together. Let us do our work and live our lives in a good way. That is how we can be in service to the whole.

During the full moon let us transfigure and experience our divine nature as we beam light and love throughout this great earth.

During the equinox remember the wonderful memories and dreams for your life and for the life of the planet. Project beauty into the collective. Plant seeds of love and beauty and inspiration in your inner garden so that they grow, blossom, and bear fruit here in our earth garden.

Most of all be a channel of love and light in behalf of all of life!

Inspiration for these new times..

Hi, this information comes from someone who channels Melchizedek..I find it inspiring and hope you will also. a link to the source website is provided.

Melchizedek / March 1-7, 2011
Arise, Beloved Lightworkers!

The glory of your true Light is beginning to shine through your physical vehicles and is readily discerned by those who have ‘the sight’. Continue your practice of visualizing your etheric body which surrounds your physical body radiant with the pure Golden White Light of the Christ. This practice is very powerful in helping to bring in greater Light into your body and into your home and World.

As the density drops away from your bodies, you become luminous Beings and each of you walks upon this World with a halo of Light around your crown chakra. This Light is growing in magnificence each day so continue to reach upwards like a sunflower reaching its petals to the Sun celebrating life upon this beautiful Planet. Each day try to remember to thank the Earth, the sky, the four directions, above and below, the air for vitality and life force, the water for sustaining life forms, the elementals and all the kingdoms upon and within the Earth.

For when you are in gratitude, the Universe just loves to give you more of what you are grateful for. Each night before bedtime or perhaps first thing in the morning, make a list of all the blessings in your lives and really feel the emotion of joy and thankfulness from within your heart for all that you have been given. You can sustain yourselves in the frequency of joy and gratitude just by intending to do so and it is wonderful to observe that each of you is doing this more consistently and persistently.

Many of you are now moving into your next steps along the spiritual path that you have chosen before incarnating upon this Planet. As you let your heart and inner instincts guide you as you just follow, you will be surely and gracefully led to that which is the highest good for your selves right where you are now. The synchronicities are flowing smoothly and miraculously within your daily lives and your lives are moving in wondrous rhythm and Divine flow.

As you surrender to this flow and focus on each moment with your full and undivided attention, you will begin experiencing multi-dimensional flashes of insight and vision. Observe all that you can of these occurrences and record it in your journal along with the dates and times. Sometimes, your Higher Self and guides are giving you a message that will not be immediately obvious but which will be found upon the reviewing of your notes. Many clues and signs are being given all around you and being open to their messages will align you further with your Higher Selves.

The hidden worlds are beginning to come into view and you will be delighted to begin to see the inhabitants of these worlds as they become visible before you. This, of course, will happen as each of you surrender yourselves to the love of the Creator and just let go of all former preconceived mental expectations and just become as a child, full of wonder and delight at the magic that surrounds them. As you release the last of the density that has held you back for so long, you will begin to feel as light as the wind and the clouds and your feelings of joy will increase.

Along with these feelings will come moments of remembrance of the truth of yourselves and all that you really are. Many of you will treat these flashes of remembrance as ‘flights of fancy’ rather than ‘reality’ and we say to you, Beloved Ones, that you must have faith that what you are beginning to perceive around you, is in fact, the true reality. Believe in yourselves and trust your intuitive guidance in all things. Let go of any remaining fear and doubt and you will soon soar with the Eagles as your Souls rise in freedom.

And so it is!

I AM Melchizedek

The 9th wave begins on March 9th

2011-02-28T20:55:00.000-08:00

Friends, if you think things have been moving fast, just you wait! Here are some predictions based on the Mayan Calendar. This year, 2011, and the 18 days beginning March 9th, there will be great movement towards world unity. Hallelujah!

Things are also expected to be 20 times more accelerated than they have been. I can't even imagine what the implications of that are.

I am feeling moved to get something started in response, locally or online...perhaps a chain of events to support our coming together in a unity wave! Let me know what you think.

The following is from the website of Carl John Calleman PhD who has studied the Mayan calendar in depth:

March 9, 2011: Dawn of the Unity Wave

Last year large numbers of people gathered in the Conscious Convergence event on July 17-18, 2010, setting an intention to manifest unity consciousness as the Ninth, and highest, of the Mayan waves brings the universe to its highest state of existence. This event served as a base camp for intention setting and ascension towards Unity consciousness; We celebrated in joy in the most varied forms, ranging from the temples of Bali to the Mayan elders in Guatemala and from the Sami in the North to the Bushmen in the Kalahari. We could for the first time ever see our planet emerging as a sacred space encircled by a global medicine wheel.*

We are now approaching the actual beginning of this wave of unity consciousness, which begins on March 9, 2011. This is the ninth wave also known as the Universal Underworld. This wave includes thirteen uaxaclahunkin (18 day) periods that propel a process designed to lead the universe and the human beings to their highest state of consciousness.** The purpose of this article is to provide some additional background to this wave, its initiation date and suggest how the energy of the wave may be used in the most beneficial way. This requires that I again summarize the basic structure of the cosmic time plan as understood from the Mayan calendar.

Many people have in recent years come to know about the existence of the Mayan calendar and its purported end date, but surprisingly, not so many have assimilated what the ancient inscriptions are saying about it. In fact, there is only one known ancient inscription that mentions the calendar end -- Monument 6 from Tortuguero*** describes what will happen when the calendar comes to an end. The current reading of this ancient inscription by professional Mayanists is that we will then “witness the display of Bolon Yokte Ku in his full costume and regalia.” So whatever else you might have heard associated with the end of the Mayan calendar such as a pole shift, the end of the world, a galactic alignment, solar flares, radiation from the center of the galaxy, etc., actually lacks foundation in any ancient Mayan text.

Yet what obviously does have a background in an ancient Mayan inscription is Bolon, the number nine. At first sight, the reading of the Tortuguero Monument may sound cryptic and difficult to understand. There is however a lot of surrounding information about Bolon Yokte Ku that allows us to make sense of this insciption.*** Crucial to understanding is that Bolon Yokte Ku is the Nine-Support, or Nine-Step, entity of “period endings.” Bolon Yokte Ku, in other words, is a name for a cosmic pyramid in nine steps. Through extensive factual verification this pyramid has been shown to symbolize the nine levels of evolution the universe undergoes on its climb to its highest state of consciousness.

Each level of evolution, of Bolon Yokte Ku, the cosmic pyramid, is then developed through a series of thirteen time periods. These range from the hablatun (1.26 billion years) on the bottom level to the uaxaclahunkin of 18 days at the ninth level. This means a twenty times frequency increase and speed-up of time with every single step to a higher level. Soon, as of October 28, 2011, the energies of the nine waves are then all going to manifest fully. This final manifestation, I believe is what the ancient inscription refers to when it says that it will be witnessed how Bolon Yokte Ku will appear in his full regalia. The fruits of the nine waves will then appear in their fullness as these are simultaneously completed. This is no longer confusing if we accept that the ancient peoples of the world, including the Maya, would tend to personalize the cosmic forces describing them as “gods”, while, in the modern world, we would probably only describe this as nine energy waves.

As of March 9, 2011, the ninth and highest wave of the Bolon Yokte Ku will be activated. It seems to me that the purpose of this particular wave of 13 x 18 = 234 days is to cap the entire evolution of the universe that so far has been propelled by the eighth lower waves. From what we know about the changing polarities of consciousness of the nine waves it will do so by providing energies that are conducive to the human beings cocreating unity consciousness.

This is the purpose of the Ninth wave. So let us stop for a moment to contemplate the momentous place in time in which we find ourselves. Life, and especially human life, has evolved to the eighth level. Those that have actually climbed a physical Mayan pyramid, such as the pyramid of the Great Jaguar in Tikal, may be able to relate to the feeling of coming close to the top at the eighth level catching breath for the ascent to the top. We are now then about to start the climb to the ninth and highest level of life. It was to prepare for this momentous opportunity that many participated in the intention setting event of the Conscious Convergence last July. We now can follow the intentions we set at this event and actually manifest through co-creating Unity Consciousness. It is now time for us to follow up, and actually manifest the Unity Consciousness that was the intention of this event. The meaning of the unity wave that is now about to begin is for us to cocreate the appearance of Bolon Yokte Ku in its full splendor, the completion of the cosmic plan and its nine levels of evolution. As March 9, 2011 arrives, we are called to begin co-creating Unity Consciousness; March 9, 2011 is the dawn of the wave of unity.

Thus, the year of 2011 is not scheduled to be just like another year. Very likely this is our last chance to live up to being co-creators with the cosmic plan. As this Gregorian year began, the messages that circulated reflected our heightened ambivalence to the passage of time. On the one hand there were the every year kind of messages like: “Hope you will have a great 2011” or “what do you want to create for yourself in 2011?” as if this would just be like another year. Messages centered on the individual, based on a linear view of time made up from years following one after the other.

On the other hand, around the New Year reports started to come about the “aflockalypse.” Large numbers of fish, birds and animals simply died for no apparent reason. This instead pointed to anything but a linear continuation of time in 2011. The aflockalypse is possibly due to the frequency increase that the nine levels of the Mayan pyramid undergoes combined with the extreme degree to which humans have now pushed the ecology of the planet off balance. If this is true, it would call upon us to adapt to this new frequency and also shift completely from asking for things for ourselves and what we as egos or individuals may want from 2011 to what our egos may do to serve the delivery of the divine plan. The ninth wave of unity would then be calling for a complete shift in our way of being, to manifesting unity consciousness, which is the intended end result of the cosmic plan. If this is to happen, it may also call for extraordinary cosmic energies to fulfill the cosmic plan. In fact, maybe the ninth wave will be a Judgment Day that will save the world.

If there is a twenty-fold increase in frequency with every wave, the Ninth Wave, or Universal Underworld, will have a duration of 13 x 18 = 234 days and would then start March 9, 2011. It will progress through seven days and six intermediate nights, each being a uaxaclahunkin. In Mayan calendar language, this means an 18-day period. The 18-day periods can be subdivided into two nine-day counts (two days off from the classical nine lords of the night count) since they will have both an ascending and a descending phase and in this way we may see more clearly the link to classical Mayan calendrics. If the ninth wave is all about creating harmony from what has evolved previously then our task would be to ask the divine for guidance as to what we would do to arrive at this. If we are asking for global harmony we cannot however simply ask for our egos to guide us. Instead we will from the outset have to ask questions like: “What can I do to serve the cosmic plan?” or “What shall I do to further the manifestation of unity consciousness?” If the days of the ninth wave are the time periods most conducive to generating such unity consciousness then we will have to turn for spiritual guidance from the divine in phase exactly with these days of the Universal Underworld.

The ninth wave here joins the alpha to the omega in that for the first time in history it brings the nine-day count to the forefront of evolution. These will be extraordinary times and it is possible that we here will be confronted with a choice of truth versus tradition. The reason is that if the ninth wave will have the strength that we may expect from the evolution of a new underworld then it will be energetically more powerful and stronger than the traditional tzolkin count of 13 x 20 days. The Ninth level will, in other words, bring in a nine-day count that transcends the tzolkin in power and is more meaningful to follow for those seeking to align themselves with the cosmic plan. Still, of course, the tzolkin will continue to live on as an undercurrent of energies.

The rhythm of the Universal Underworld is then a nine-day climb of increasing intensity starting on March 9, 2011 followed by a descending intensity for the next eighteen (9+9) days until a new descent begins of eighteen (9+9) days. We will then have to learn to ride this wave in order to ultimately climb to the top of the pyramid to be able to witness the appearance of Bolon Yokte Ku in “his” full regalia. Calendars to follow this eighteen (or nine day) count are available in German (can be ordered from christiane biebl christiane.biebl@web.de, See also www.indalosia.de) and Swedish (www.livsstrommen.se), but also on web sites in English and French (http://4-ahau.com/
Home.html).

We are calling for everyone to be part of the initiation of this new wave on March 9, 2011. Each of you is welcome to make use of the web site www.treeoflifecelebration.com for communicating with others who share the same intentions. I feel it should be clear that it is something fundamentally new that is proposed here. A frequency of evolution, the nine-day count, which previously has only been vaguely discernible, will come to be the chief guiding rhythm. And if you think about it, it would be truly remarkable if the transformation to a new world could be the result of a mere linear continuation of calendars that have been used for centuries.

The call for events or celebrations to initiate the ninth wave on March 9, 2011 only means to point out that this is the beginning date, the initiation of our opportunity to move into unity together. We would also like to encourage you to find means of celebrating and transforming into unity consciousness during times that work for you, such as weekends around the first eighteen day period, as well as holding the intention for the beginning of true unity on March 9, 2011. In fact, the idea is that this process of transformation generating the unity consciousness of the ninth wave should not end. It will continue to October 28, 2011 and beyond.**** There is no single right answer to how this transformation to unity consciousness is to be brought about everywhere. Yet, there are tools available that can be used and further developed by all those who share the common intention of manifesting unity consciousness. Everything starts with an intention and if the intention is aligned with the purpose of the cosmic plan, it will be increasingly bearing fruit.

Life Is A-Bun-Dance/ Good Laughs from Swami Beyondananda

2011-02-25T22:45:00.000-08:00

I went looking tonight on Google for the phrase "Life Is A-Bun-Dance" and I found this by the satirist/life commentator Swami Beyondanda.

AN ALTER NATIVE REALITY by Swami Beyondananda

Do we really create our own reality? Or is it all scripted out over at Universal Studios? The debate has raged as long as debates have been the rage, and I can provide no definitive answer either. Certainly some really big blockbusters have come out of Universal -- and more disasteroid scenarios are predicted for the near future. And yet, small independents continue to write and star in their own successful movies.

As more and more of these alternative scripts get produced, this is helping to bring about an alter native reality. And that is a good thing. For indeed, the native reality could use some altering. In a recent reality check, 71% of those responding said they "disapproved" of the current reality -- the lowest approval rating reality has had since the Great Flood.

This is understandable. Consider the political scene, for goodness sakes. All those endless buttals and rebuttals. The media baits us into arguing, and we keep falling for debate. It is so silly -- we could be making a beautiful brainchild together, and instead we are mass-debating.

And even those natives who ignore the political goings on, they too are in need of altering. Perhaps you are one of those going through "psychic midlife spread" and are complaining, "I seem to have outgrown my old life and nothing fits anymore." Well, as my beloved guru Harry Cohen Baba, the Garment Center Saint, used to say, "When something doesn't fit, you need to make alterations."

Now in the old days when Harry Cohen Baba was still on the material plane, people would come in for alterations all the time. Perhaps they'd just been in a serious karma wreck or suffered a near-debt experience, and their old habits were in tatters. He'd snip a little material here, mend a little tear there, and the natives would leave in a truly altered state, often remarking about how well their life fit.

"Wow. No crimping in the crotch! No more constriction around the neck! And look -- my arms are swinging freely!" I tell you it was quite a blessing to have a guru who could custom-tailor your reality like that. I remember shortly before his passing, the great healer's disciples gathered at his bedside and cried, "What will we do without you?"

The Garment Centered One shrugged and said, "Suit yourself." And this is only fitting. We can alter our own reality (not to mention the reality of the natives around us) by following these simple suggestions:

1. Tell A Vision. If you don't like the current programming, be your own channel and tell a vision....

2. Be An Esteem-Generator. Each of us at some time in our lives has been flattened by an esteem-roller, and it's taken months or years to get back up to a full head of esteem...

3. Life Is A Bun Dance, So Get Out On The Flow.
Sometimes when reality becomes too unpleasant, there is a temptation to dance off into the void. Clearly, this is a void dance. The opposite of a void dance is a bun dance. If you want to enjoy a bun dance, you gotta get up off your assets and shake those buns. Sadly, too many of us don’t know our assets from a hole in the ground. To create an alter native reality — and promote a bun dance — we gotta move our assets and dance, dance, dance, till the sacred cows come home.

there's more..can't find it on the Swami's site but you can do the same search I did..Google the prhase "Life Is A-bun-Dance" and you'll find the whole piece!

I love his wordplay!

How to best use the energies this month: Clear Beliefs, Make Committments

2011-02-15T08:42:00.000-08:00

The opportunties this month: Commit to Your Intentions & Clear Beliefs!

These are always a good idea..and there are two specific repatternings that could be helpful: the Belief Repatterning and the Committment Repatterning. Many times, things we are committed to doing or having are not manifesting because we don't resonate 100% with our committment. An example was a couple who said they wanted a baby, but muscle testing revealed they were only 3% committed! What that indicates is that you have a whole lot of subconscious programming working against whatever goals or outcomes you are wanting in your life.

Here are some excerpts from Jose and Lena Stevens monthly shamanic and astrology based newsletter, their report for February. The full update may be found at their website at http://www.thepowerpath.com.

"This is the month where the "ifs" or conditions around your intentions need to be put aside and relegated to a position of less importance. You know on an intuitive level what you truly want and it is only the fear of not getting it that keeps you hesitant to commit. It is the mind that comes up with the reasons that feed the fear and keep you imprisoned in your story.

Are you willing to give up your story? Who would you be without your story? This is not an easy opportunity to deal with. It demands trust, courage and intuition. Use the aggression mode of the year wisely to cut through the bullshit of the mind and begin manifesting that which you have fully committed to. Remember that we are also in an emotionally centered time and headed for experiences that don't necessarily make linear or logical sense.

Belief systems are probably the most challenged this month as they create the foundation of our stories. Belief systems are anchored in the past and will continue to affect our future unless they are disconnected. They are instruments of the mind and only geared towards survival. They will continue to feed you false information until you examine them and give another instruction. This is a great time to examine your beliefs and see how absolutely divorced many of them are from what is really going on in the present. It is important to stay out of judgment as you realize how outdated your beliefs are and the enormity of what needs to change.

Everyone has specific beliefs about what will make them happy, healthy, loved, successful, well, tired, sick, sad, strong, stressed, depressed, anxious, relaxed, good, bad, responsible, irresponsible, forgiven, spiritual, productive, unproductive etc. Take some time to examine each of these categories and ask yourself what your personal and specific belief systems are regarding each one.

Sometimes it is easier to write in a stream of consciousness exercise unless you are able to do this with a partner where you simply express the stream of consciousness regarding each belief. This is not about judging anything to be either right or wrong. This is about uncovering what's there so you can see what has been running the show. Emptying the mind in this way is very powerful and you will get to see where your fears are hidden.

Belief systems are very limiting in that they constantly create the reasoning behind why you can or cannot do or be something or someone. There are many examples in history of people who have accomplished extraordinary things because they did not buy into the belief that they could not.

We have talked before about the power of the collective belief system that guides the evolution of all living things on the planet. In order to change the collective belief system, each individual must first change their own. It is the hundredth monkey effect that dictates that when enough individual belief systems have evolved to a less limited function, the whole collective will be free to evolve as well. So all of you out there that wish to be of service to the planet at this time can do so by working on your own belief systems.

Along with beliefs come expectations. Expectations are different from committed intentions as they are usually attached to a specific outcome. They are fed by your beliefs and their success or failure becomes part of your story. A true "don't know mind" leaves a lot of room for your intentions to manifest in interesting and wonderful ways. When you commit to something one hundred percent, without the need to know how you will get there, the universe will begin to weave it creatively into the physical world.

All information about everything already exists in the quantum field and that information will respond to the instruction it gets that comes from unwavering commitment. The minute you try and control how something is going to happen you diminish the power behind the intention that is necessary for the quantum field to respond.

If you commit with conditions (I will do it "if") the quantum field is a bit confused as to what you really want and will end up creating chaos from mixed messages. Sometimes you have to make a choice. Here is a good example of that. If you are involved in legal negotiations for damages for health reasons (accident, environmental pollution etc.), there is an attachment to your continuing to be in poor health as part of the argument. All the energy you are putting into the legal process is reinforcing the fact that your health and well-being are compromised. The quantum field takes that as an instruction from your belief system. You need to continue to be compromised in order to receive compensation. Therefore the other intention of actually getting well is clouded by the need to remain ill.

Regardless of the other players involved, you may have to examine your original motivation and intention and commitment. If your primary intention is to end up completely well then that is what you intend even if it comes to you in a different way than winning a legal battle over compensation. Beware of giving the field mixed messages. Committed intentions that are not compromised are indeed powerful and have the ability to become manifest almost overnight. If your intentions are compromised or clouded with doubt, mixed messages or conditions it will be much more difficult to see results.

We can't stress enough the power of these times and what they afford to everyone in terms of opportunity if you can commit, stay in present time and get out of your mental trap that needs to know and control the how of things. You don't need to know how, you just need to know what. In fact there is very little information available with regards to "how" these days. And what is available is outdated and doesn't work. So be a pioneer of your own life and decide what you want. Then commit to it one hundred percent without the need to know how you will get there.

The early explorers did not have a map. They followed their intuition and they followed signs. They paid attention and stayed present. Signs are different than conditions. You can always ask for signs to guide you so you know you are on the right track. Signs appear as support and provide synchronicity and magic. Conditions are what you place on your intentions that keep them from being fully committed.

Remember that self-deprecation is also one of the obstacles of the year and will be manifest by everyone in varying degrees. All the obstacles are nasty, do not serve spirit and will derail your good intentions and commitments faster than anything. So beware, try not to react to others and watch your own tendencies."

Many blessings for your clarity, committment and releasing outworn beliefs this month! Let me know if I can be of assistance to you in this.

Happy February,
Ellen

Happy Valentine's Day - A Self Love Manifesto

2011-02-13T22:31:00.000-08:00

I am loving myself today, and I invite you to do the same in your own unique way. Because you've got to "Make your own kind of music, Sing Your Own Special Song" as the Mamas and the Papas sang many years ago.

I Am Loving Myself Today

I am loving myself by making an altar with a mirror on it, that I and others will dance in front of. Below the mirror it says: Dear Ones, Help me Love What I See in this Mirror, and Let It Show.

I am loving myself by chanting and singing full out, even though my new roomate can hear me. I am loving the sound of my free voice ringing out.

I am loving myself by affirming that I am beautiful, unique and deserving of a loving caring partner who I really want to be with, who really wants to be with me, and that a relationship way more fulfilling than any I've ever had, is on its way to me this year.

I am loving myself by freely admitting and embracing my right, desire and ability to make a truly abundant living, that I can no longer accept "just enough to get by" when life's feast is before me.

I am loving myself by letting my voice be heard and the love in my heart shine out, in my spiritual community, "The Celebration" in Santa Fe, New Mexico, and by writing online and sharing my essence in this way.

I am loving and celebrating myself with a wonderful Trager healing session, singing karaoke and dancing on Valentine's Day.

I am loving myself by refusing to feel any kind of self pity even though I am single and 54. Even though I have never been legally married or had children. Even though my last partner died of cancer in 2006.

I am one with the heart of the Goddess, I am maiden, mother and crone, I am love, I am beauty, I am every woman and every woman is me.

I have had my heart broken, and my innocence shattered, but I take my place in the Divine Resurgence of the Divine Feminine TODAY.

Love and Light to all of you, my dear Divine Sisters and Brothers,
thank you for being in my life, and thank you for being.

Ellen

February Manifesting update

2011-01-27T12:53:00.000-08:00

Sending sunshine and palm trees to you from Las Vegas today. This whole city is a tribute to holding a vision and making it manifest, and to the human imagination. It isn't exactly the world I want to create but it is collective vision of paradise and it makes me think the possibilities for hte world that people such as you and I would like to create. We have to begin to envision that now.

And it starts on a smaller scale, and ripples out to the world. Each person living a more joyful life expands the field of possibility for all of us.

I'm writing to let you know about opportunities to learn how to manifest and create some breakthroughs. The time we are in now is a window of opportunity to get clear and create the new life you've been wanting and envisioning, so why not go for it?

February 2: Manifesting 101, the first of my new format monthly f*ree teleclasses. I will be teaching and leading exercises on these calls now, not offering a full free session. I will still do that on occasion but not as a regular offering, which is no longer feeling energetically correct for me to do. Time is 9pm Eastern.

February 3: Next Joyful Manifesting Intensive begins, 5 days in a row of repatterning sessions for insights, breakthroughs and momentum--to clear what stops you from manifesting! I now have some recorded testimonials you can listen to, to learn more about how others have benefitted from these sessions, and more info at http://www.joyfulmanifesting.com:

February 21: Manifesting Monday, a one night proxy or distance session to clear the path and keep the momentum going. go to http://www.repattern.com/Manifesting_Mondays.shtml:

What do YOU want to create or unblock this coming month and beyond?

Many blessings,
Ellen

Here is a report on the 1-1-11 Worldwide meditation from Maureen Moss, creator of the World Puja network. After you read what she has to say, you will definitely want to listen to the recording of the event. I personally can't wait to listen myself and am sorry I missed it, but I was soaking at Ojo Caliente, mineral springs here in New Mexico that day. Whatever you were doing New Year's day, the good news is this is being made available to all of us!

Maureen says:
"In over three decades of being in service to this Beloved Planet and brothers and sisters world-wide, I have not experienced the multi-dimensional profundity of what occurred during the planning of the World Meditation and Planetary Transmission on 1-01-11, or what occurred on that very day as the transmissions, activations, meditations and clearings took place.

Additionally, from what was written and sent to me by others worldwide, and what I have read in articles that people published in regard to it, neither had many others.

An excerpt from one article sent to me: "We, from the Higher realms were in attendance during this massive observance on the first day of your New Year, and there were Legions of Angels assisting in the activations that occurred.

Each person who took part is a Way-shower and a Pattern Maker who realized the great potential of this major event to create positive change for Humanity and the Mother Earth. What a wondrous boost to the Divine Plan this event was! We are still in celebration!" (author's name unknown.)

On the ground, I've been told that on that day cities throughout the world (and even airports) experienced a unique sense of quiet and calm.

Many were left speechless, while others couldn't stop crying. The shift was palpable.

Thousands met their main guide on a golden throne far beyond this Universe, with the help of Stuart Mooney, while still others, finally merged with their I AM Presence in the chamber of "The Diamond," thanks to Jacqueline Joy, resulting in most dancing their way through the day to the song "Lift The Light" that Barry Goldstein wrote and produced for our ending.

Diversity became Unity, a deep sense of well-being emerged, and hearts were literally blown open to accommodate the descent of The Divine, as thousands in over 100 countries experienced an awakening and came to know for themselves, that life as they had known it, had ended.

A full heart-filled with love thank you to all that were in physical attendance and those that were a part of it, whether you knew it or not.

All of the spoken words, transmissions, activations, meditations and energy are embedded in the 2 hour MP3 recording now made available to you, along with a full written transcription of the entire event. Each will prompt you into your awakened state and gracefully lead you through 2011.

It all awaits you at http://www.worldpuja.org and Click on 2011 Planetary Transmission or on the Home Page graphic

Enjoy, and many blessings,

Wow..there is so much good stuff flowing to us right now. I just have to share the wealth with you.

First, Jo Dunning, a master energy healer who I really like a lot, is offering her Activations of Awakening for f*ree this Wednesday January 19th via webinar, phone call, and I believe by distance. She normally charges for these powerful awakenings of the Pineal and other endocrine glands for spiritual acceleration. Go to her site to register at http://www.jodunning.com:

There are tons of other things available too...this list is from Maureen Moss, creator of the World Puja Network. She has also shared her experience of the 1-1-11 worldwide meditation, which I will post in a later post.

But for now, know that the recording of this event are available, free, to you. All of the spoken words, transmissions, activations, meditations and energy are embedded in the 2 hour MP3 recording, along with a full written transcription of the entire event. Each will prompt you into your awakened state and gracefully lead you through 2011.

It all awaits you at: http://www.worldpuja.org:

Other events coming up: Mark Your Calendar For January
Don't Miss Broadcasts (to name just a few of dozens):

First of all don't miss our newest host, Rikka Zimmerman with her brilliant weekly new show "Access Consciousness." As a global speaker, this woman wakes-up an audience with sheer exuberance. If you're ready to glean some fresh wisdom on Abundance this is the show you won't want to miss each week.

It has been over a year since I have interviewed three people in one month let alone over the course of a year. This month I was compelled to contribute to continuing to keep the energy moving powerfully in this first month of this powerful New Year.

First, I interview a global leader, great teacher and a man that I have long considered to be a great friend, and a no easy way out mentor. To say he's brilliant....well, an understatement. His name; Robert Rabbin and our conversation, all about Authenticity (perfect timing!) Jan. 13

Next is part 2, on "The Divine" with new trailblazer, Panache Desai, on Jan. 27.

And a woman who has contributed very quietly for decades through her brilliant book Oneness, Rasha. This interview will be part meditation and part conversation on Jan. 30.

All of Stuart Mooney's shows this month will take off where he left off in our global meditation. What an authentic, pure, uncomplicated blessing this man is to the world and to The World Puja Network.

Carla Rueckert joins James Gilliland on Jan. 25. Carla has served as a vocal channel since 1974 and was the instrument for the five The Law of One books. Not a show to miss, particularly as the Law of One couldn't be more timely.

Great wisdom, activations, and transmissions continue to flow from hosts Dr. Steven Greer, Judy Satori, Jo Dunning, Christine Day, DeAnne Hampton, Pippa Merivale, Kerrie O'Connor and Sheila Gale. All details, more guests, dates and times at http://www.worldpuja.org:

Preparing for the Manifesting Your New Year's Intentions group

2011-01-16T10:35:00.000-08:00

Set aside some time for this..up to an hour is best, or you may like to do this over several days. In your quiet place, where you have no interruptions, do what you need to do to get present. You may want to stretch, dance for a few minutes, shake out your body, whatever works for you. Now, take a few deep breaths and consciously relax your body. If you have a way you like to connect to Source, or to your higher self, go ahead and do that now.

Then have a sense of the year ahead, like a glass jar. This jar isn’t empty, though—it’s filled with the stones that are intentions and goals from the past. Empty the jar out, and sort through them..which are the ones that don’t fit any more? List a few that seem important to let go of.

If this image doesn’t work for you, you can use your own, or simply ask, “What do I want to let go of as I move into this New Year? What isn’t or hasn’t been working, or what feels outdated and outmoded?” Notice how you feel about letting them go…does it feel possible and easy, or difficult and scary? Does it bring up self doubt or negative/limiting beliefs and thoughts? Write those down too.

Now, onto what we do want—there may be new stones we want to add, or re-energize and activate what’s already in the jar. One way to determine this is to state the opposite of what we are letting go of, but sometimes what we want to bring in is not in relation to the what we’ve let go of. Now list these.

You may choose to focus on just personal or professional goals/intentions, or combine them. My experience is that it’s hard to hold more than three intentions in my mind and energy field at any one time, so keep that in mind. Most of us need to strengthen our focus and decision making skills, so why not use this exercise that way?

Enjoy your preparation, and hear you on next Saturday's call! I do plan to record it.

Here's to an awesome year ahead,
Ellen

To register or learn more: http://www.repattern.com/2011.shtml
I recommend attending in person (phone) but if you cannot, you are also welcome to do the preparation on your own and be proxied in (receive the session by distance).

How to make 2011 your year?

2011-01-16T10:27:00.000-08:00

I have a feeling, maybe you do too, that this is going to be your year. The year you make some important breakthroughs and go to a whole new level of clarity and living on purpose.

It's easy to make resolutions, promises to ourselves. But besides all the inspired resolutions, the question is, what needs to enter or leave your life to get there. What are you going to do differently and what support do you need to put in place to make the changes happen?

What do you really need to commit to this year? I'm not talking about action steps at this point, like eating less sugar. I'm talking about an overall committment like "Being more loving to myself and my body", "Allowing myself to be more successful".

I have two easy ways for you to receive clarity, clearing, and energy for moving forward, coming right up!

1. Tomorrow's proxy or distance session, Manifesting Monday, which I am planning to do once a month, to help you manifest money, support, helpful people, your health and relationship goals and intentions. More info at:
http://www.repattern.com/Manifesting_Mondays.shtml.

2. Next Saturday, my annual Manifest Your New Year's Intentions group by teleclass, at 10am Mountain, noon Eastern. More info at:
http://www.repattern.com/2011.shtml.

Instructions for how to prepare for the New Year's group will be in the next post.

If insanity is doing the same things and expecting different results, how do we get sane and grounded in making changes?"

Neediness: What' so wrong with it?

2011-01-08T11:40:00.000-08:00

I wanted to share some helpful teachings for anyone who is going through depression, health challenges, hard financial times or being challenged in making a living. During these times, all of our self-doubts, our insecurites, questioning if we are good enough, if we have anything to offer..rear up out of the depths of our subconscious. It is not an easy place to be and I personally have visited those places this past year.

The worst part is not necessarily even the circumstances, but what we tell ourselves about them, what meaning we ascribe. It's easy to go into judgement and shame about being broke, depressed, unable to pay for the help we need, or even feeling unable to help ourselves. On top of what's going on, we layer on shame, self-critcism, etc. for being in a needy place.

A dominant idea in our culture--which almost all of us have bought into, whether we consider ourselves mainstream thinkers or not--is that being needy is about the worst thing. Rugged individuals, we are to be self-sufficient, able to pull ourselves up by the bootstraps at all times.

Look at how our culture treats people with needs--the poor, the homeless, the disabled, the elderly. Even in metaphysical circles, we are often reminded that we are creating our own reality. It is true--and ultimately,on the big picture level, So if we are broke or depressed, we have created that and it is up to us to get ourselves out of it.

On one level that is true--we are responsible for our lives and how we think, feel and react. AND yet, we're not doing it all alone--we are constantly co-creating that with a higher Intelligence and our soul's chosen life lessons, our destiny.

But when you are in a hurt child place, when all you can feel about life is a resounding NO, or you just want to be held and comforted, judgement and shame wont' help. They will just make you feel worse, more helpless and keep you down even longer.

Time for a fresh look at the whole idea of having needs. Here's a really positive perspective from Sufism which Mark Silver has shared in his writings on Heart of Business, bringing spirituality into the business arena. The Sufis say that being needy is the human condition. We are born dependent on our caregivers for food, water, warmth, touch and care...and throughout our lives we depend on food, water, air from the Earth. We depend on others for love, comfort, our life force itself comes from Source/Spirit/God. We can't live for long at all without taking in something from outside ourselves.

So why not accept that needs are part of being human, of being alive, rather than fight or judge this being human? We simply must depend on others, and on the Source of all, to help us--at times more than others. At those times, our "job" is to ask for grace, and to completely turn it over. When self-effort is completely beyond us, or we just need a boost, it's okay to ask. In fact, this is how balance is created in the Universe.

When you do ask, let yourself be receptive and open. Let the grace come in whatever form it will...the kindness of a stranger or a friend, an unexpected gift of food, money, a healing....an inspiration for a new way to make money..a mentor..a poem or song that uplifts you. Throw off the shame about being human and having needs and let the Source of All return you to a place of peace, connection, trust and hope.

We already know that we are "spiritual beings having a human experience"; now it's time to full embrace being human while having spiritual experiences!

Here's to embracing, celebrating and honoring our needs...and being open to having them met.

Many blessings,
Ellen

Happy New Year! Awaken to the Dream of the Earth

2011-01-02T19:06:00.000-08:00

Happy New Year dear friends and readers. Mine is off to a wonderful start and I hope yours is too.

This poem was forwarded to me by Tracy Collins, a friend from the EmbodyDance ecstatic dance community in Santa Fe and I'm passing it forward to you. Enjoy!

Awaken to the Dream of the Earth

Let us remember within us
The ancient clay,
Holding the memory of seasons,
The passion of the wind,
The fluency of water,
The warmth of fire,
The quiver-touch of the sun
And shadowed sureness of the moon.

That we may awaken,
To live to the full
The dream of the Earth
Who chose us to emerge
And incarnate its hidden night
In mind, spirit, and light.

-excerpted from John O’Donohue’s “Praise of the Earth”, To Bless the Space Between Us: A Book of Blessings

Final gifts of the season!

2010-12-30T21:56:00.000-08:00

Hello...I am enjoying the quiet stillness of the snow and cold, as the old year winds down. Many people enjoyed that energy on our call last night, the winter stillness. And perhaps it was also our theme, "Aligning with Acceptance, Optimism and Peace of Mind."

Here's the link to the recording--enjoy! It's slightly over an hour long. On the call I mentioned that the format of free calls will be changing in 2011--they will be teaching calls, and more of an intro to my work. The group repatternings will continue to be available through paid subscriptions or a la carte sessions, as will my Mercury Retrograde and Joyful Manifesting proxy sessions. I also mentioned a holiday special on private sessions for new clients, which you are welcome to take advantage of.

Many blessings,
Ellen

Here is some powerful and useful information about the eclipse/Solstice, shared by Lira Wright, an intuitive healer in Santa Fe:

Solstice Moon by Allison Rae
Tuesday, 14 December, 2010 (posted 17 December, 2010)

A great moment of truth approaches.

Over the next seven days, our Sun aligns with the heart of the Milky Way Galaxy. On Monday night, just hours before the Solstice, the Earth's shadow will cross the face of the Full Moon, collapsing time in a dimensional portal of infinite possibility.

Welcome to this year's Solstice. Standstill. Night of Creation. Ancient home.

The total eclipse of the Moon will be visible throughout the Americas . The effects will radiate beyond time and space to all sentient life, everywhere, carrying our hopes and prayers into the next millennium.

The alignment of the eclipse with the galactic core is a rare cosmic phenomenon and not a coincidence. It's connected with 2012 and the Mayan calendar, the cycles of Venus, the Earth and the Moon. This opening in the heavens signals a time of great change on Earth, of purification and enlightenment.

Deep, unmasked truth lies at the heart of this eclipse. Whatever darkness remains within our own hearts will be revealed. Within the interplay of shadow and light, secrets from the individual and collective unconscious are exposed in tones of raw emotion. Suffering is transformed by the caress of perfect love.

This is likely to be a most uncomfortable passage through the heart of darkness and into the ultimate bliss of self-realization, the galactic consciousness that awaits our embrace.
The Serpent
Right now the Sun is transiting a part of the sky that connects us with the Great Beyond via Ophiuchus, the Serpent Bearer.

The medicine of this great healer is truth, a potent elixir that heals the wounds of many lifetimes and helps us find our way home to love. The serpent initiates our becoming.

Each year, the Sun aligns with this region of the heavens, and divine cosmic frequencies stream to Earth on the galactic cross. This is the alignment that religions and spiritual traditions around the world celebrate as the return of spiritual light to Earth.

As 2012 approaches and the Mayan calendar comes to a close the feathered serpent symbolizes our ascended state as fully realized, galactic humans. Out of darkness we are reborn.
The Eclipses
A most auspicious event happens this year as the lunar and solar cycles dovetail in a special eclipse series that coincides with the Turning of the Ages on Earth.

These eclipses echo the Grand Cardinal Cross eclipse series earlier this year and yet another series a year ago. This entire period marks a turning point for humanity and the Earth.

Eclipses happen in six-month and 19-year cycles. Issues that surfaced over the summer months will be back, with higher stakes this time. Themes will also relate to 1991 when eclipses previously happened in the same place in the sky.

Both individually and collectively, we're beginning a new cycle along these timings, within the context of the great cycle shift known as the Turning of the Ages.

The December 20/21 event is the first total lunar eclipse in three years. There will be two more in 2011.

In the Americas , where the eclipse is visible, it happens overnight December 20-21. Here's the timing:

Partial eclipse begins 1:33 AM Eastern December 21
Total eclipse begins 2:41 AM Eastern December 21
Mid-eclipse 3:17 AM Eastern December 21
Total eclipse ends 3:53 AM Eastern December 21
Partial eclipse ends 5:01 AM Eastern December 21

As the Moon appears to darken, it will actually turn a deep shade of red. The entire event lasts three-and-a-half hours. Within that, the period of totality is 72 minutes. If you live in North, South or Central America and have a clear sky, you can watch the entire event.

All the phases of a 28-day lunar cycle will be condensed into three-and-a-half hours. Beyond the Full Moon, 26,000 light years away, lies Galactic Center , the heart of the Milky Way. Gazing in this direction activates your cellular memory, awakening wisdom codes deep within your being.

The Sun enters Capricorn later that day (3:39 PM Eastern December 21), as lunar and solar energies bathe the Earth in divine love.

This is a Solstice to be remembered, a galactic initiation available to anyone open to receive it.

The December 21 lunar eclipse is paired with a New Moon Solar Eclipse on January 4. As the Sun and Moon meet in Capricorn, the new year begins.
The Potential
The ongoing galactic alignment in December and the 2009-2011 eclipses bring to completion millennia of spiritual darkness on Earth and mark the beginning of a new era of enlightenment, peace and prosperity. Our divine hearts are awakened.

Each year, the Sun appears to rise and set in the same place for three days surrounding the Solstice before turning south (or north, if you're in the Southern Hemisphere) for the next six months. Time seems to stand still, creating an extended moment of silence ideal for quiet reflection and review in preparation for the next cycle.

Timed within the Solstice gateway, the December 21 lunar eclipse expands the potential to infinity. The effects of prayer and meditation are magnified exponentially through this portal. Energetically, humanity is poised for a quantum evolutionary leap.

We're invited to step into our power as divine co-creators who will shape our destiny and craft a remarkable future for humanity and the Earth.
The Experience
Each of us needs to find our way through the maze of meaning within this rare alignment. Issues central to this experience will be:

- Addictions, the ways we numb ourselves and limit the actualization of our highest potential

- Emotional and physical healing

- Alignment with the soul, the cosmos and our deepest purpose

It might seem easier to ignore the vastness of this opportunity, yet the consequences of denial are far more devastating than facing the truth.

There are many ways to attune to the celestial frequencies to embed and direct the transformative effects of eclipses. My favorites include:

- Time in nature
- Communion with the planets and stars
- Healing work with exceptional practitioners
- Purification of body, mind (thoughts) and emotions
- Journaling
- Celebration with loved ones
- Creative activities (art, music, dance, drumming, chanting, etc.)
- Devotional practice (prayer, contemplation, meditation, drumming, chanting, etc.)

- Movement (yoga, t'ai chi, xi gong, walking, running, swimming, etc.)

- Eating foods that grow in and close to the Earth (especially root vegetables and dark, leafy greens) plus mineral supplementation
- Crafting intent
Ceremony is most potent in the hours before, during and after the eclipse alignments, and at sunrise and sunset during each day of the Solstice gateway. As the energies are building, then disseminating, our prayers expand and multiply.

I'd like to offer, for the benefit of all beings, a prayer that we might carry in our hearts through this eclipse passage.
A Solstice Prayer
Beginning now, I choose to walk in a new way on planet Earth, to attune to her as I remember cosmic truth and embody my divine purpose.

I forgive myself and others and open my heart to receive the infinite blessings of divine love flowing throughout the universe and coursing through my very veins.

As I attune to the Earth, the Moon, the planet and star beings in the heavens, I breathe with universal forces of creation. Divine Source enters me, filling the cells and spaces of my being with pure love and light. I am healed, whole, and renewed.

May I be gentle with myself and others as pain, fear and suffering are released. I bless all I encounter and embrace my fellow beings, all situations and circumstances, all thoughts, feelings and emotions, as reflections of my own divinity.

I joyfully claim my destiny as a force for positive change at this turning point in Earth's history. Together with my brothers and sisters, I will strive to shape the future in ways that serve humanity's highest evolution and fulfill the needs of generations yet to come. Aligned in truth, I am.

from Alison Rae.

Happy solstice and many blessings as we move forward into the new age,
Ellen

Energies of December 21st and beyond..fasten your seat belt!

2010-12-17T15:41:00.000-08:00

Here is an update from Jose and Lena Stevens on what we can expect, and some additonal astrological information. Their site is www.thepowerpath.com.

Please join me on December 21st for a half hour tele-gathering and completion of the year energy work, at 1pm Mountain (3 pm Eastern), right in the "power window" time. Dial in to 1-712-432-1600 access 121233#. It's my gift to you and feel free to invite others.

Your planetary update:
HAPPY FULL MOON, WINTER SOLSTICE and TOTAL LUNAR ECLIPSE!

The Full Moon and Total Lunar Eclipse is at 1:13 AM Mountain Standard Time on Tuesday, December 21. The Eclipse should be visible in North and South America after midnight. Winter Solstice is exact at 4:39 PM Mountain Standard Time on the same day. Needless to say, this is an extremely powerful day especially the time frame between the eclipse/full moon and the solstice, setting the stage for the next period of time. It is imperative that you stay away from any situations where conflict, violence, argument or disagreement is anywhere present. Keep your energy focused and clean. If you have your ducks in a row and have managed to maintain balance and focus, you could experience a higher centered breakthrough with a lot of insights, clarity, intention and a great sense of rightness to your life and direction.

If not, you could be in for a breakdown. Breakdowns will happen in the aftermath of this day and will affect anything that should have been dealt with beforehand. Make sure to do something special to honor this day, set your intentions, write your wish lists and treat this solstice as the true beginning of a new year. If you are still dealing with situations that do not have closure, do something symbolic such as a burning ceremony around the issues to acknowledge your intention of completion. Come from gratitude in your communications and interactions.

Blessings,

Lena

Full Moon Lunar Eclipse in Gemini
Sun in Sagittarius 29º/Full Moon in Gemini 29º
1:13 AM MST, Tuesday, December 21, 2010
Visible in North and South America after midnight
Winter Solstice - Sun enters Capricorn - 0º
4:39 PM MST, Tuesday, December 21, 2010

Overview of astrological aspects of the next few weeks:
12-30-10 Mercury goes Direct 12:21 AM MST
01-04-11 New Moon in Capricorn/Partial Solar Eclipse 13º 2:03 AM MST
01-19-11 Full Moon in Cancer - 29º 2:22 PM MST
Fourth of five full moons at last degree of the sign.

What does all this mean to you and me?

Herald the Rebirth of the New Year! The Sun has completed the nadir of its journey and is now renewed and reborn as it crosses the Winter Solstice point (Summer Solstice for Southern Hemisphere folks) and enters the first degree of Capricorn. The sacred point of rebirth - one of the four major astrological power points of the year along with the equinoxes and the summer solstice. We enter the domain of the Raven and ask this crafty ally to gift us as it goes into the dark and brings forth the light.

If you want to read the influences of the year, you look to the Winter Solstice chart, the longest night and shortest day. At this solstice time, the Sun enters Capricorn, the cardinal (initiating) earth sign ruled by serious, orderly Saturn - Lord of Time. The planets are aligning auspiciously on this particular solstice with the torch of a Full Moon illuminating the solstice just 15 hours before, powerfully intensifying the influences that present themselves for our examination and reflecting the upcoming year.

What is most prominent in the solstice chart? Well, there is a Grand Square aka Grand Cross involving the exact conjunction of asteroid Pallas Athena and the Sun at 0º Capricorn, square asteroid Juno, square Jupiter conjunct Uranus in late Pisces, and square South Node conjunct Moon in Cancer. A multitude of squares and oppositions abound here noted for their dynamic, tension-causing influences. Energy will move under this configuration as we are forced to make choices in the areas that these planets and asteroids rule. What will these configurations bring us in the way of influences?

The planets, except for Moon and Venus, are masculine in nature and the major asteroids (Ceres, Juno, Pallas Athena, & Vesta) bring in the feminine influences. These feminine influences have a most prominent place in this chart especially Athena and Juno with Ceres aiding with benevolent energy to unlock the tight Grand Cross. Athena exactly conjunct the powerful, waking Sun at 0º Capricorn, rules three major areas - social justice, artistic energy and creative inspiration and intelligence. Remember, she sprang full grown from her Father's head. In the sign of Capricorn, she brings in the influences of form and structure. Healing the skeleton and teeth (form & structure) using modalities such as chiropractic, cranial-sacral work, deep tissue massage that breaks through resistance and old patterns is useful.

For more about Athena and the other influences, stay tuned for the next installment...

What's happening? Couldn't have said it better myself!

2010-12-15T18:36:00.000-08:00

Hi, this was passed on to my by an intuitive healer here in Santa Fe. I could almost have written this..it so reflects my own experience. Here we go! May you find some ideas here that are useful, supportive and relevant.

Personally, I'm looking forward to the New Year.

Many blessings,
Ellen
***************************************************
November left us for dead.

If you have been feeling like you are suddenly back at the very beginning of your journey again, experiencing the same situations/sicknesses/emotional entanglements/financial hardships/etc,take heed.

Some heavy goo has been kicked up the last 40 days and 40 nights… and if you were as deep in it as I was, no doubt you spent most of those on your back (all I can say is…thank gawd for the new season of Housewives...and all other mindless Bravo brain fodder).

From the very end of October and thru the entire month of November we endured such a legendary disconnect period that for the first time ever, I was not sure if I would still be writing these updates when we emerged on the other side. I mean, we have certainly plowed thru p l e n t y of void periods over the last decade or so, but November brought the whole concept next level…to the point that I was unable to hear, feel, think, sense or intuit anything outside of my physical reality…which was also very bleak, mind you. It was like the universe just dropped us off in the middle of the forest..left us to our own human devices without a pack of matches, a GPS or a US weekly.

Personally, I was reduced to a toddler-like-state with a month long temper tantrum…vacillating between flipping off the forces that be, and quivering in my pillow to the tune of: "I want my mommy". If I didn't have abandonment issues prior to ascension, I definitely do now. My extreme child-like resistance to this punishment...a month without a purpose…was completely laughable to anyone who witnessed me, but soooooo not funny. I just could not get away from myself…everywhere I went, there I was.

In a word…brutal. In two words…upyoursmuthafatha god.

Luckily, since the new moon last Sunday, there is a very different vibe slowly leaking into the earth plane and we are reconnecting again while adjusting to this new space we are now inhabiting...albeit a little lighter. Well, still fat, but with less emotional encumbrances.

The Disconnect - So what gives?

First of all, I had to call in the big guns for back-up this time around, otherwise I would have never gotten this update out...so this blogcast is officially brought to you by three separate sponsors: the Andromedan Collective, the Pleiadian High Council and the Spiritual Hierarchy.

I needed all the help I could get to make some sense of the nightmare we just lived through and from what I can gather, (if you weren't forced to push the eject button) November offered us two things :

1) An emotional upgrade…the loss of more of our ego-created selves so that we can inhabit more of our authentic self and live directly from the heart. Loss = mourning, so if you spent the last month crying over spilled milk, welcome to the hormonally imbalanced. We are mourning the loss of more outdated aspects of ourselves (those things that we thought we would be, do or have in this lifetime, but didn't) which of course can also create a fleeting identity crisis leaving us vulnerable and skinless…pervious to all lower forms of energy and feeling as though we have no protection from societal forces of harshness. We are slowly coming out of a very inward period where even getting the mail may have felt like torture.

This sloughing-off included everything from releasing played-out relationships & responsibilities to shedding more preconceived ideas of who we thought we were and what we thought we were here to contribute... and everything in between. The reconnection of this higher level, heart-based intelligence required an extensive rewire and manifested as a zombie-like state, a complete lack of interest in living…not even so much an interest in dying, just an overwhelming indifference to life... and of course with a side dish of physical misery to boot.

This disconnect period may have surfaced in a myriad of ways for you but the most obvious symptom of the void is that it is difficult-to-impossible to feel good or connected to anything in any realm.

Some common side of effects are as follows: disinterest in our passions, purpose, potential, projects, creativity, all those things we normally enjoy, etc...the inability to connect to our higher guidance... financial hardship/sluggishness...lack of desire to care for/nurture our bodies/exercise/eat well (even the foods we eat seem tired and unappealing)…feeling constantly dissatisfied yet not knowing how to feel fulfilled/can manifest as hunger that won't go away even after a meal, unsatisfying sleep, etc…wanting/needing to be alone and feeling relentlessly fatigued.

These periods are some of the most difficult to navigate on the ascension journey, but the undeniable truth is, they eventually and always bring us to a higher and better-feeling place. Even when we don't think we will survive it, and we have absolutely convinced ourselves that we are completely delusional and that nothing good will ever come of sacrificing a decade or two of our lives …something beautiful and amazing always pops thru…and just in the nick of time.

2) On a physical level, we have been undergoing some MASSIVE etheric reconstructive brain surgery…some of which is still "bleeding" into December and will not be complete until the beginning of January as we find our new footing and try to make sense of this new reality we are adjusting our focus to. If you have been experiencing a literal inability to focus or make cognitive sense of things (what I call left-brain dead), or an unusual amount of spinning/dizziness/vertigo/loss of balance/eye issues/burning, itching & watery eyes/spaciness and/or sinus headaches & migraines...most likely its related to this upgrade.

This extensive brain rewiring manifested as the result of joining polarized spiritual forces within the 6th and 7th chakras (pituitary/pineal glands)... the blending of the divine feminine and masculine energies that are fully responsible for our entrance and focus (hence vision issues) into galactic consciousness via the higher mind. The Andromedans reassure us that this recalibration period was quite an extraordinary event, and one that completes the release from karmic re-creation…the universally heralded and perceptual "shift of the ages".

As we reorient ourselves to the new timeline and our physical bodies begin to harmonize with the new frequencies, we will begin to see, feel, and experience new dimensional patterns based in a higher reality construct. The secrets once hidden from our mortal sight will become available to us and our vision will become keener... our perceptions, more profound.

In other words, the shift from November to January is a deeply physical one and is resulting in our reconnection to unity consciousness and divine love. In fact, I am told that November was primarily a biological restructuring period and one that required us to be completely unplugged from our current level of consciousness so that we could be reoriented to the new timeline.

Make no mistake…this recent disconnect was the mother-load of all disconnects. If your wheels came off like mine did, its simply because its time for a new set.

The Reconnect

After a disconnect period, there is always a reconnect period…albeit to a higher level/frequency…which is what we are in the process of assimilating to now. Though technically we are still between worlds, the Pleiadians share that as a result of this recent reconnection, those who partake in and are aligned with the divine developments on earth will experience a great shift in mind, body and spirit…a harmonizing shift that will offer us the ability to further stabilize ourselves in the increasing frequencies, to maintain equilibrium in our cells, and to consciously coexist with our brothers and sisters of divine heritage as reconnected galactic humans in 2011.

As always there is an adjustment period (aka, pain) required to bring our lower bodies into alignment with our higher self because we are now vibrating at a much higher rate and our cells still need time to adjust. The month of December will definitely be a time to re-harmonize...an intense period of assimilating to the latest download so we are fully prepared to exercise our gifts and potential in the new timeline. That said, there is also a period of activity surfacing that will enable us to finish up details and actualize year-end goals as well as some new and aligned opportunities that may arise, compliments of the next 6 weeks of powerful galactic, astrological and celestial forces.

"We would like to welcome you to this new level of human existence, we are beyond delighted to greet you here. What you have been accustomed to experiencing prior to this dimensional shift is far from what you will be able to experience now. Look for big changes in your inner and outer world…the macro and the micro." -Pleiadian High Council

The Pleiadians also mention that our merkaba is changing.. the sacred geometric vehicles that house and transport our consciousness are rapidly increasing in spin and morphing into a new geometric construct which will support and enable our participation with ascended living. These changes are also responsible for our recently skewed depth perception and inability to focus from a particular point of reference. (aka, brain scramble) This is nothing to be concerned about, we are simply rising up, bumping against a dimensional ceiling in an attempt to break thru to a higher altitude which can of course cause feelings of confusion, lightheadedness, ungroundedness and dizziness.

Lastly, I am hearing that when the reconnection is complete, many of us will be shedding our old spirit guides/soul-team members who so fervently helped us along the way…more aptly stated, we are becoming these future versions of ourselves that once guided us here, and as a result, we will now be mingling with many more who will be coming forth to work with us in this plane as new human AND spirit guides/mentors and teachers of the higher ways. Groovy.

What Next?

"There is a tide coming that is preparing to wash away all that is not in alignment with the new. This tide is offering each wayshower the full ability to step into unity consciousness and to take part in the planning and preparation period for the next and final stage of the planetary ascension" -Spiritual Hierarchy

From what I am being shown, December is a powerhouse month beginning with a Mercury retrograde period that started today, 12/10, and will be returning direct on the 30th. Shortly after we have the 12/12…the final galactic gateway portal of 2010 which is pushing us to complete all the spiritual lessons that the last 12 months scraped up for us. We also have a VERY powerful solstice on the 21st (when the sun closely aligns with the galactic center), and another famous eclipse sandwich….a full moon and total lunar eclipse on the same day as the solstice and a partial solar eclipse on January 4, 2011. Mixed in with that caffeinated cup of cosmic coffee are some major celestial & astrological happenings threatening to cauterize our past…whether we feel ready or not.

In general, this month will be another month of completion. In addition to the holidays, there is much to be accomplished in both our inner and outer worlds and December offers us the opportunity to take advantage of these supportive energies for endings if we are paying attention. The eclipse period beginning on 12/21 will offer us a major portal of expansion…what the Spiritual Hierarchy refer to as a "wormhole from the old to the new". "The illuminated energies from this (eclipse) portal will besiege those who choose to release themselves from the old and willfully embrace the new."

Like most months, I am being shown a combination of tiny bursts of forward movement, and longer periods of cellular integration, but this month there is a strong message coming thru for those who choose to exit their past via the eclipse portal…we are enthusiastically being reminded that we will not be able to carry any density with us to the other side, so this month is the final month to release emotional burdens and wrap up outworn affairs.

"As you walk forth into the month of December, you will be embraced by more loving energies, but you will also be called to complete many outworn tasks, behaviors, relationships, and activities that have held you bound. Realize that these next 6 weeks are a gift and will serve you well should you be willing to first let go and then fully open yourself to receiving. We cannot stress this enough... completion is the overriding energy of December with regard to your new beginnings." SH

I know I say this a lot, but our new beginnings will not commence until every last personal detail has been completed and finalized and all wayward elements from the past are wrapped up. In other words, we can't skip any steps…anything that we've forgotten, suppressed or ignored will come at us like a spider monkey this month, so be sure to take a good look around your life and see whats left to deal with because this is a sort of last chance offer to empty our proverbial chalice.

If it feels in any way like you are being pushed too far, its because you are…we will be pushed to a breaking point in those areas of our lives that we are not seeing clearly, areas that need a shift in perspective or deeper understanding in order for us to become unhinged. We are being stretched as far as we can possibly go so as to encourage (?) us to deal with every last lingering detail, to strip away every illusion/delusion we've honored along the way so that we can be as empty and as pure as possible before we fill ourselves up with the new. Even without our participation, we will be all-but-forced resolve and absolve it all with the celestial powerhouses lining up to clean our clocks, I mean slates.

My advice? Always better to go willingly & consciously.

These final labor pains of 2010 will continue to pulsate and push us forth into the new waves of unity consciousness…waves of creativity and bliss that undulate in increasing frequency in 2011. So know that from now until the eclipse period we are receiving this final call to separate ourselves from all that no longer serves us (limiting thoughts, situations, relationships, homes, careers, health issues, etc)..cuz come the eclipse sandwich, we will be sucked up and spit out by cosmic forces way beyond our control…vibrationally sifted and sorted...and landing in our new reality with the task of figuring out how the heck everything works in this as-yet-unknown-territory.

"The next two months in earth-time will be centered around love. The love quotient in each and every one of you has risen significantly and now that you are moving into the unity timeline, a dimension of oneness, you will be vibrationally eligible to receive all the blessings of love's grace." -SH

Physical Happenings

We have been rapidly and intensively changing on a cellular level, preparing our new human templates...which are meticulously designed to operate on the new timeline…for a very long time. These upgraded biology suits will hold more light and participate seamlessly with the new timeline. This is very exciting, however it also unfortunately means some physical discomfort.

The list of symptoms is long and varies as usual, but the most intense symptoms this time around (especially last month) seemed to manifest in the head/neck area.

As mentioned earlier, the pituitary/pineal activations created lots of dizziness/vertigo/loss of balance/vision problems/burning, itchy & watery eyes/spaciness and/or sinus headaches & migraines, stuffed/runny nose, post nasal drip, inability to focus, migraines, sinus headaches, fatigue, sleep changes (insomnia/deep sleeps…up at night, down during the day), night sweats, wild and vivid dreams, etc.

There were also those who experienced flu-like symptoms with lots of muscle aches, neck stiffness/pain, sore throat, mouth/teeth pain, clogged ears and tons of back pain (fluctuating between lower/upper/middle…sometimes all three).

We also experienced a major solar plexus (power) activation in the beginning of December which may have created temporary waves of stomach pains & digestion issues as well as the usual heart opening and grounding symptoms: heartburn/indigestion, soreness behind the heart, nausea, palpitations and rapid heart beat...lower back/leg aches, sharp shooting pains in rectum/tailbone area, sore ankles, legs and feet, intestinal clearings (candida/skin rashes/inflammations) etc.

We are going thru major and magnificent biological changes needed for our new life experiences so its very important to listen to what our body's are telling us….even if it is diametrically opposed to all we have been taught. Protein cravings are very common during major integrations, as well as periods of no appetite…or you may even need a random carb fix at 3am during one of those insomnia streaks.

When in doubt, nurture yourself like a pregnant woman… give your body what it wants/needs when you can and don't hold back…even & especially if that means 15 hours of sleep…per day.

Reporting to you for the last time this year…see you on the other side of that sandwich!

Wishing you and yours a sacred holiday season, and enough energy to survive it ; ))

Letting Go Movie party all of December!

2010-12-07T22:49:00.000-08:00

"In the 21st century, letting go is not a luxury but a necessity."
That is a quote from Hale Dwoksin, head of Sedona Training Associates, and a principal teacher of the Sedona Method.

Almost every spiritual teacher or path tells us to "just let go", but how? The Sedona method shows you an amazingly simple way to do just that.

I have been working with the method since 2003 and completed a Level 1 Coach Training, as well as several 7 day retreats in Sedona with Hale. The method, or releasing as it is called, is a very handy thing to know, and if you do it regularly it will absolutely change your life.

I like to introduce the method to my clients in a half hour free coaching session. From there you can learn the method through audio courses, live courses and in other ways.

If you'd like to learn more about this simple but effective technique for de-stressing, relaxing into life and manifesting more easily, you can watch the "Letting Go" DVD free all through December.

here's the link, and let me know what you think!

Here's to lightening up and going free, or as the originator of the method, Lester Levinson would say...becoming hootless!

Many blessings,
Ellen

December's Astrology: More joy from Mercury and other planets! What you can do

2010-12-07T14:22:00.000-08:00

Three or four times a year, the planet Mercury goes retrograde. This has certain predictable effects, communication slows down, appointments have to rescheduled and then rescheduled again. And yet, each time we go through a retrograde there are different aspects and we are all impacted a little differently because of our personal astrology.

It can be frustrating and stressful if you are not aware of the retrograde and if you fight with the energy instead of rolling with it. That's why I offer a proxy or distance repatterning to help you align your energy and mindset for Mercury retrograde.

The final Mercury retrograde in 2010 runs from 12/10 to 12/30. My last Mercury retrograde session is tomorrow, Wednesday December 8th around 9pm Mountain, and the deadline to register is 7pm Eastern on December 8th.

To register, go to: www.repattern.com/Mercury_retrograde.shtml.

Here is a very rich summary of the upcoming retrograde period:

Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn on December 10th, 2010
Posted on November 27, 2010 by Dipali Desai

Re-Defining Life Priorities: Mercury in Capricorn Retrograde Phase

Mercury retrograde will start on December 10th through December 30th so put a note in your daily planners. This Mercury Retrograde will happen at 6 degrees Capricorn and Mercury will shift back into the sign of Sagittarius when all is said and done by the end of December 2010.

Quick Overview About Mercury
In Astrology, the planet Mercury represents communication and information. It also symbolizes the linear thought process, mental attitudes, way in which you learn. and the way you consciously perceive reality. Approximately every 3 months, for approximately three weeks, Mercury appears to go “backwards” in the sky. The planets do not really go backwards. The ‘retrograde phase’ for any planet can be considered an ‘introspective’ phase. For Mercury retrograde, all forms of communication, short-term travels and information may encounter delays, obstacles and or disruption. The nature of the Mercury Retrograde phase is to allow the central nervous system to shift into non-linear states of Consciousness (similar to deep relaxation and meditation) and give the nervous system a much deserved break.

Mercury in Capricorn, December 2010:
During this phase, our attention will be on goals, and long-term plans as well as how you define things while. Capricorn symbolizes responsibility, wisdom and maturity. We must be “patient” and wise when taking an idea or theory and applying it in daily life to see if it is realistic or something needs to be revised. Mercury in Capricorn potentially can help us persevere for the long stretch to attain any and all goals we set, small or large. We must also learn to be flexible and initiate new ideas when we feel guided to.

Best Way to Prepare & Suggestions:
The suggestion is: to finish up Holiday shopping in advance, writing out cards and any other preparation ahead of time. Due to Mercury being retrograde during most of December, people may encounter more mental stress and strain with delays or snags in travel. It is best to value the quiet time and appreciate the fact that the things slowing down will ultimately help you if you have the understanding. Complete things that are left undone, projects, organizing, sorting out. Triple Check all appointment details. Add extra space between appointments and while traveling. Back up your important documents, files and pictures onto an external hard drive. Leave time to meditate, relax, dream and be in the non-linear space. Try not to force the mind to produce if you don’t have to. Wait to sign important documents or make major decisions until early January 2011. Wait to purchase “brand new” electronic items if possible (renewal is fine). Clear Away Clutter: old documents, paperwork, files & sort through the last 3 months. Renew commitments. Now is the time to review your thoughts, perceptions, words and actions to see if they are in alignment (Capricorn) with your goal(s).

Linking Up with Other Planets (The term Transits represents planets in the sky traveling through the signs currently.)

Mercury and Pluto Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn happens next to transiting Pluto in Capricorn. And may be felt intensely within the mental energy body and thought processes. It is possible, some news or information may be exposed or brought to the light of day for transformation and healing. People (or you) may feel the urge to revisit someone from the past, communicate or even bring up an old issue to resolve. It is best to be open and discuss things rather than clinging to the ‘right and wrong’ of the situation.

Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn invites us to be pragmatic in our thinking and be patient as we encounter challenges or delays. We are given opportunities to sort out and clean out the ‘mental closest’ so to speak. We may decide to make deep shifts in our perception about our lives. It is possible we may hear news about people transitioning (death) or loss as well as we may be saying goodbye to people in our lives whom we have grown apart with.

With Pluto’s symbolism closely connected to the Mercury Retrograde, we get to purge our mental attitudes and off balancing thinking. Whatever within the mind keeps us paralyzed or imprisoned we can reclaim our empowerment.

Triple Dose: Mars, Mercury Retrograde and Pluto in Capricorn
Transiting Mars in Capricorn links up with Pluto and Mercury Retrograde in Capricorn. This energy is strongly building momentum and intensity from about early December through December 16th. The potential is highly transformative energy ready to kick-start or kick ass and put something into motion.

It is possible someone or something comes back our lives with a different approach and we are presented with an intense encounter or news of some kind. Old issues that had gone “underground or been buried” may erupt, for confronting and healing now. Remember the key is; “what choice, words and actions will empower all involved?” It is best to be very patient and not take things too personally now. It’s also possible there may be miscommunications, agitations and possible combative encounters. Remind yourself that you can choose what role to play, one that is empowered and Soul-level (wisdom) or one that is ego/mind level fear based.

Mars/Pluto in Capricorn with a team like focus, stimulates deep desires on a physical level are possible, a desire to merge intimately or connect with another/loved one high. It may be helpful to channel the energy into physical outlets or organizing.

Possible Off-Balance Energy:
Mars/Pluto combination can be highly charged up in a good way or it can be volatile, eruptive and explosive. This combination is not to be taken lightly. Watch for manipulation, power struggles and control tactics generated from a place of fear and anxiety. If you allow these potent energies to build up without regular outlets there can be explosive outbursts, screaming matches, ego-power struggles, rage exploding as well as words (Mercury) being used as daggers. It is best to channel this energy into physical constructive outlets or projects.

Mercury Phase Overview:

■Pre-Retrograde Phase: November 22nd (slow down, yellow signal) – December 9th
■Actual Retrograde Phase: Mercury in Capricorn at 6 degrees from December 10th through December 30th
■Mercury goes Direct: at 19 degrees Sagittarius on December 30th
■Post-Retrograde Phase: (Go ahead new phase, green signal) January 18th

Chop wood, carry water--forget the big picture!

2010-12-03T11:41:00.000-08:00

Wow..can't believe I haven't posted anything here in almost a month. Wait--I take that back--I do believe it..it's been a long strange trip lately. For you too?

It has been such a roller coaster ride personally and professionally. Because I'm an empath and I work with the collective consciousness around prosperity and money, and because I'm human and living in the midst of these changes myself, I can't always tell how much of what I'm feeling
is even mine.

Sleep disturbances, mood swings out the wazoo...how much is my hormones, my resistance to making changes, and how much of this is triggered by planetary/global energy shifts? In addition, I live in Santa Fe, which, lovely as it is, is a crucible of transformation. Don't come here unless you are prepared to change, grow and let go as a way of life.

If you are wrestling with any of this yourself, or just wondering what the heck is really happening in the world...I'll tell you what I've come to lately: Stop trying to figure it out, and if the big picture is too confusing, frightening or de-energizing: let it go! Just focus on what's in front of you, do what is needed, what I call "Just in time" living.

The Japanese pioneered a system in manufacturing called "just in time" where the parts arrive just in time for when they are needed. In this new reality, we need to live that way..."Am I okay in this moment, can I trust the Universe that I will have what I need when I need it, can I focus on the all-rightness in the present moment."

The minute I go into the future or projecting about the past, I lose faith and trust and go into fear. Being a pragmatist, I say, of course we do need to make plans sometimes. But then, it's important to live moment to moment. Chop wood, carry water...too many unknowns, too many shifting uncertainties. Can you trust yourself, can you trust that others will be there to help, that it's going to be okay--even though we can't see how we will get there or how the Universe is going to deliver?

A friend and I spoke at EmbodyDance last night..about how our generation, and everyone really, are being asked to show up for each other, and to learn to trust each other, in ways we never have before.

Meantime, I do my best to find the joy in singing, dancing, nature and good companions. What simple things bring you peace, joy and heart connection?

Along those lines..a few words that may inspire you, courtesy of Rhea Goodman, host of a great radio show here in Santa Fe called "Living Juicy", check it out at KSFR Santa Fe, Monday nights, 101.1 FM or streaming via internet!

Life is short.
Break the rules,
forgive quickly,
kiss slowly,
love truly,
laugh uncontrollably,
and never regret anything
that made you smile.

Life may not be the party we hoped for,
but while we are here we should dance.

“Forget safety.
Live where you fear to live.
Destroy your reputation.
Be notorious.”
--Rumi

you must remember one thing.
the world was made to be free in.
give up all worlds except the one to which you belong.
anything or anyone that does not bring you alive
is too small for you.

...david whyte

Many blessings,
Ellen

A Spiritual Conspiracy

2010-11-07T17:49:00.000-08:00

This was passed on by my friend Harriette King of Santa Fe. The author is unknown.

A SPIRITUAL CONSPIRACY

On the surface of the world right now there is war and violence and things seem dark.But calmly and quietly, at the same time, something else is happening underground. An inner revolution is taking place and certain individuals are being called to a higher light. It is a silent revolution.

From the inside out. From the ground up.
This is a Global operation.
A Spiritual Conspiracy.
There are sleeper cells in every nation on the planet.

You won't see us on the T.V.
You won't read about us in the newspaper
You won't hear about us on the radio
We don't seek any glory
We don't wear any uniform

We come in all shapes and sizes, colors and styles
Most of us work anonymously
We are quietly working behind the scenes
in every country and culture of the world
Cities big and small, mountains and valleys,
in farms and villages, tribes and remote islands

You could pass by one of us on the street
and not even notice
We go undercover
We remain behind the scenes
It is of no concern to us who takes the final credit
But simply that the work gets done

Occasionally we spot each other in the street
We give a quiet nod and continue on our way
During the day many of us pretend we have normal jobs
But behind the false storefront at night
is where the real work takes a place

Some call us the Conscious Army
We are slowly creating a new world
with the power of our minds and hearts
We follow, with passion and joy
Our orders come from the Central Spiritual Intelligence

We are dropping soft, secret love bombs when no one is looking
Poems ~ Hugs ~ Music ~ Photography ~ Movies ~ Kind words ~
Smiles ~ Meditation and prayer ~ Dance ~ Social activism ~ Websites
Blogs ~ Random acts of kindness...

We each express ourselves in our own unique ways
with our own unique gifts and talents
Be the change you want to see in the world
That is the motto that fills our hearts

We know it is the only way real transformation takes place
We know that quietly and humbly we have the
power of all the oceans combined
Our work is slow and meticulous
Like the formation of mountains

It is not even visible at first glance
And yet with it entire tectonic plates
shall be moved in the centuries to come
Love is the new religion of the 21st century

You don't have to be a highly educated person
Or have any exceptional knowledge to understand it
It comes from the intelligence of the heart
Embedded in the timeless evolutionary pulse of all human beings

Be the change you want to see in the world
Nobody else can do it for you
We are now recruiting

Perhaps you will join us
Or already have.
All are welcome
The door is open

Inspirational Message from the Deva of Trust

2010-11-02T10:08:00.000-07:00

Hello..a member of the wonderful creative/healing arts/dance community here in Santa Fe, my friend Rena Tairifa sent this message today and I thought you would enjoy it.

She has spent time at Findhorn, a co-creative community in Scotland, famous for great growing despite the very cold, rainy, inhospitable climate there. Co-creative gardening--something I have studied with Sibylle Preuschat and with the materials of Maechelle Small-Wright, involves working in partnership with nature.

When we work with nature, one level at which we can communicate and partner with her is through the Devas. The Devas are architects of form..some people see them as spirit beings or in other forms. I do not usually see them but I sense them. Everything that exists in form--not just plants and rocks and things we would consider nature, but anything that can be named, even intangible things, have an overlighting Deva, a Deva in charge of that thing.

If this idea is new to you, you can read Co-Creative Science by Maechelle Small Wright to learn more...You can also experiment with asking for a connection to be made to any Deva you want to connect with, and see what messages, images or sensations you receive from making that connection. Make sure that when you finish connecting, you ask for the connection to be released, with thanks....otherwise it's like leaving a phone off the hook.

So that is a little background for those of you not familiar with Devas or that we can communicate directly with nature.

This is Tairifa's communication from the Deva of Trust. Enjoy!

Many blessings,
Ellen

Inspirational Message from the Deva of Trust

"Move from a place of knowing within you rather than as a result of adaptation to outer experience. Let go of your assumptions and your need to control life's creative process.

It does not matter what spiritual path you’re on, an ultimate sense of peace comes down to one question: Can you let go of the need to control your life, and trust there is a benevolent force guiding all that ever has, is, and will happen?

Trust is the soul's way of attuning to a fundamental law of reality. There is a deep rhythm that moves through all life that cannot be controlled by our will. When trust informs our experience, it allows our psyche to relax and our soul to be at peace with our situation. We can rest in unquestioned confidence that the universe provides, that we have and will receive what we really need. In fact, often beyond what we alone are even capable of imagining.

When we have a lot of basic trust, we are courageous and take risks. We don't suppress our competencies. We engage in life wholeheartedly, doing what feels appropriate with the confidence that it will work out. Life becomes a story of creation not an obstacle course.

Without basic trust, we tend to react to what arises in accordance with our conditioning wanting our process to go one way or another. We cling to predetermined assumptions and outcomes. We become tense and contracted and do all we can to manipulate the circumstances to fit with our desires.

Here is a suggestion for changing the automatic internal response to external signals. When a traffic light turns yellow and there is a safe distance to stop before it turns red, what do you tend to do? Do you accelerate to 'make it through'? If so, this is a metaphor for what happens inside when our yellow worry light goes off — we accelerate; try harder, move faster, do more, all stress responses to our conditioning. Trust is the ability to stop and wait for the green light to signal the time to move forward again.

Why not, for the month of November, practice putting on the brakes when the light is yellow and taking that moment to pause and breathe in trust and the deeper rhythm of life while waiting for the green light to again signal you to go."

Anger & other feelings you didn't know you had

2010-10-27T20:14:00.000-07:00

On tonight's call, someone shared that she was told (I assume by a healer, therapist or psychic)that she had a lot of anger. She had been aware of other feelings, but not the anger. Her question was: How do I let go of it if I didn't even know it was there?

That is a very good question, which I did answer on the call, but it deserves more space.

First of all--I believe that emotions are an expression of energy, and that they are there for a reason, that they have a message for us. If we were not allowed to feel or express an emotion, it will go underground and show up in some other way--such as depression, physical pain, smoking, overeating, creating crises in your life. It won't go away until we address the underlying issue and hear the message. (Check out the book by Karol Truman "Feelings Buried Alive never die").

Our culture is essentially a culture of denial, where we are taught that only certain emotions are acceptable. Happiness, confidence, optimism are okay--but grief, anger, insecurity? Faggedabout it.

If we had learned how to make room for all our feelings, and to know that they are just energies arising that we can listen to, address, resolve and move through--we'd be much healthier, peaceful and live together a lot more harmoniously!

Each family has its own particular "rules" about which emotions (if any) are okay to express. And then there are the cultural rules too. Especially for women, anger is not an acceptable emotion. So we learn that any time we get angry, we should keep it inside, or express it in tears or sadness. It goes so far underground that we don't have a clue that we are feeling it.

Anger turned inside often shows up as depression, low energy and low self-esteem. Why is that?

There is a lot of life force energy in anger, and when we disconnect from it, we also disconnect from our life force. In Polarity therapy, anger is associated with the Fire Element. In that system, Fire is our vitality, will power and seat of our digestive, where we turn food into vital life force or prana.

Every emotion has its positive purpose and message, and usually anger arises when we have been treated unfairly, hurt, abused or violated in some way, or our boundaries are crossed. It's mainly a survival emotion designed to keep us safe and out of harm's way and to let someone know when they've crossed a line with us.

With anger, it's important to create a safe space or get support to feel the feeling. That may be with a healer or therapist, or trusted friend or family member.

Here are some ways to help you get in touch with and deal with anger--or any other feeling that needs to be healed:

1) Journaling and self-discovery: Spend some time journaling. You can ask yourself, "If I were angry, what would I be angry about?" or "If my anger had a voice, what would it say? And what age is that voice?" You can also do a left right hand journaling exercise. With your dominant hand, you write a question, like "Why am I angry?" with your other hand you write the answer. You may be surprised at what you discover.

2)Learn a technique called Focusing, which was created by Eugene Gendlin, or find a practitioner who knows it. It helps you to discover your emotions by reading backwards from your body sensations.

3) Study your own body cues. Tight shoulders or jaw, high blood pressure, acid reflux and other digestive disorders are common signs of repressed anger. Chronic depression can also be a sign of anger. Start noticing when you hold your breath, clench your teeth, or develop a belly ache. What was happening right before those body symptoms appeared?

4)Learn the Sedona method--for releasing and letting go. Wtih the Sedona method you may find that you have a great desire to control other people or life, or feel out of control--and that's often associated with anger. Sedona releasing doesn't require that you know what you are feeling, or have a label for your feelings in order to let them go. As a Sedona coach, I can teach you some basics and support you in practicing the method.

5) You can also learn EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique) which you can teach yourself or learn from a practitioner.

6)Do some body-oriented psychotherapy or energy work. This could be a therapist, massage person, practitioner of Polarity therapy, Gestalt therapy, Somatic experiencing, Core Energetics, Rubenfeld Synergy, bioenergetics or some other form of body oriented therapy that includes emotional release. I am trained in Polarity and Gestalt and have a lot of eexperience in supporting people through emotional release work.

Sometimes even with the best self help methods, we can't get to the deeper issues. This is because in order to survive, we had to create defenses to get through life..and these defenses get in the way of accessing the feeling (they are designed to protect us against feeling painful or uncomfortable feelings). It can be done but it takes some training to be your own therapist..and even when you do have that skill, there are just some things we need the help of another person for.

If a certain emotion keeps coming up, or you just don't feel cleared and resolved, that's a sign you need more support beyond what you can do for yourself.

Be compassionate, patient, and open to guidance and it will come. I am happy to explore how my skill set can be used to help you with this.

Every emotion you reclaim is another piece of aliveness and healing, and allows you to be more present and aware. Accessing our emotions makes us healthier on all levels--physical, mental and emotional.

When we can access and feel our anger, fear or grief, that helps us to also feel our courage, joy, peace and happiness. We are then free to play all the keys on the piano, as my teacher John Beaulieu used to say.

To your freedom,
Ellen

P.S. How would you live if you knew that every feeling you had was acceptable, natural and beautiful, and a message from some part of your self that needs something?

Letting Go of the Old, Welcoming the New

2010-10-27T19:22:00.000-07:00

That was the theme of tonight's f*ree once a month session.
If you would like to listen to it, here's the link. The
recording is a little over an hour.

As you listen, you are welcome to write down your own answers
to the questions I ask, and you will be repatterned just by
listening!

http://tinyurl.com/2fkaj4v

The session was a Metal Element Repatterning. The Metal element
in Chinese medicine relates to the Lung Meridian (what we take in,
what inspires us) and to the Large Intestine Meridian (what is
toxic, old or unneeded, to be let go of).

The season of fall that we are in, is also associated with the
Metal element. The session is to help you let go with ease..
and many of the people on the call felt really relaxed and
like they had let go, by the end.

So enjoy!

Many blessings,
Ellen

PS A question was asked on the call about anger and how to
let go of it, especially if you are not even aware that you
are angry! I answered this on the call but would like to
address this further in the next post.

Intense times lately?

2010-10-19T10:42:00.000-07:00

Hi..just wondered how this month is going for you. For me, there's been a lot of extremes in mood and energy, and in the level of activity too, from busy busy, to extremely quiet.

It had actually occurred to me that I am in a birth process..giving birth yet again to a new version of myself, and also my business.

See what you think...here's the excerpt from Jose and Lena Stevens monthly forecast/energy reading for October. To read more, go to:
www.powerpath.com.

********************************************************************
The main theme for October is INTENSITY.

Everything this month is amplified, paving the way for stronger reactions and increased sensitivity. It's as if the 100 watt light you are used to operating under just got turned up to 1000 watts. The resulting light intensity would take some getting used to. This intensity has been with us to some degree all summer through various themes and the veil that has kept us asleep and in the dark has been slowly coming off. But now that veil is completely coming off exposing us fully to the intensity. Some of us will instinctively try to turn away and retreat even deeper into a dark shell. But there is no escape. As in childbirth there is now full dilation and a need to stay focused in order to push through our own birth.

How are YOU wired?

2010-10-17T01:35:00.000-07:00

Today I had the great pleasure of sitting with Adyashanti, a wonderful teacher of Advaita, or non-dual philosophy. His answers were so loving, practical and heartfelt, with light self-deprecating humor. I will share more with you, as I took copious notes, but one thing he said which really interested me, was about how we fall back on our greatest strengths in times of challenges, yet there are times when relying on those strengths is not the optimal choice, when the Universe (or perhaps our own souls) ask us to stretch, and maybe even go to the other extreme. He spoke of bringing his competitive approach from sports into spirituality, when what was needed was not bulldogging things, but letting go.

He went on further to suggest that working with the way we are wired--how many of even really know that--will help us in spiritual life and in everything. He's so non-prescriptive, but he opens and invites us so beautifully to consider new thoughts and ways.

It made me contemplate myself--how well do I know myself? It's not like I haven't been studying myself for a lifetime, but recently I've had so many new discoveries, I've had to revise my idea that I knew myself well. I do feel I am able to be more objective about whatever I do see, which may also be why it's easier to see clearly. Hmm. Ya think?

okay, enough late night rambling.

Catch y'all later.

Love,
Ellen

It's all coming together, FINALLY! lessons from growing my business and my garden

2010-10-09T19:44:00.000-07:00

I've been learning so much from planting a garden, my first ever. The unseen events that happen underground for a while before the miracle pushes its way up to the air. That a garden takes time, a few passes through all the seasons. The rock garden area I created by the honey locust tree, was planted with grass (an exotic luxury here in New Mexico just because it takes extra watering)--and lo and behold, is filled with insects and crawly things.

This former New York City girl is just amazed by it all, even though of course I've always known about seeds...it's different, way different, to experience the miracle of growth.

The songbird garden, planted with amaranth, cosmos and other plants that birds like, has become a gourmet banquet for grasshoppers and crickets. I guess the word got out to the neigbhorhood.."Pssst..over here, she's got stuff we like". It's new for me, not having had pets for years, and no children, to feed living creatures, even though I am asking them politely not to eat the roses and so far they are listening. I talk to the devas (Nature's Intelligence Agents) and they are cooperating.

Today I spied a hummingbird hovering around the purple morning glories (what an apt name for those royal flowers!).

So, I built it, and they came!

What does this has to do with my business? I do a process called co-creativity where I partner with Nature to help me bring things into form in the easiest and best supported way. Maechelle Small Wright, one of my teachers of co-creativity, provided guidelines for creating a garden--one in soil, and also for soilless gardens, which could be almost any project or undertaking, like a business.

I can see similarities between the garden and my business, where many seeds in the forms of intention have been planted. In their own mysterious way, when I "water" them and give them soil, light and air, these seeds are now growing fast and beginning to blossom and unfold.

Seeds are programmed to become plants, I don't have to tell them how to do it, just give them the right support and let them do what they were designed to do. Yes, there is the mystery of right timing, the perfect coming together of all the ingredients, and care and feeding--but teh cycle of planting, growth and maturity has its inherent rhythm and order.

Soon it will be time to harvest, and withdraw energy from what is now finishing, and make plans for the next cycle.

What is blooming, what is ready to be harvested, what is dying out and needing to be removed, in your business, relationships or personal habits?
Where is the fertile ground, where is the fallow ground, and what do you want to grow in your next cycle?

Get Mad at God if you need to!

2010-10-07T15:00:00.000-07:00

When it's all too much, or things seem unfair, or out of balance...here's a suggestion: take a look at what you are learning in this situation. That alone may begin to shift things.

A second option: Get mad at God! Or get mad at the Universe, Creator, Allah (fill in with your favorite name for the Divine). If you were brought up in a strict religion, this might sound wrong or even sacriligeous.

Try it, you'll like it. And in my experience at least, and in the experience of many Jews (remember, the Jews are the ones who argued with the angelic messenger of God) no thunderbolts or cosmic revenge will ensue.

While I am not religious or particularly identified with the Jewish religion of my birth, and my parents professed to be atheists, I understand more and more how culturally Jewish my upbringing was. "Question all authority and conventional wisdom", and go ahead and argue with the Top Brass--that's what I learned at home and what we practiced (Except when it came to questioning the authority of my parents, of course!).

The Jews have a specialty (excuse the sweeping generalization, I know we can't lump all individual Jews, or any religious or ethnic group, for that matter, itno a homogeneous glob) of contention: arguing and disagreeing, and expressing our unique opinions. Last night at my first Jewish education event since the tender age of 12, I discovered, or re-discovered that Judaism is filled with arguments, dicussions, comments and comments on the comments. We don't even seem to have a unified concept of God!

So don't worry about dishing to the Divine. S/he can take it and has probably heard it all before.

Years ago, living in YC and going through tough times financially and working in a stressful job, I sat on a rock one day in Riverside Park, by the Hudson River, and screamed, vented and wailed to God. It helped!

This week, on Tuesday morning, I had another opportunity to practice this.
After I vented, out loud and also in my diary, something did shift and I began to feel like I could at least put one foot in front of the other again.

I invite you, whenever you need to, and whatever religion you were brought up in...let it rip. Tell Creator your deepest fears, frustrations and angers. When you do this, and you really let go, you open the way for grace, for help to arrive.

Let me know what happens if you do try it!

Super powerful new moon tomorrow!

2010-10-06T11:24:00.000-07:00

Tomorrow, October 7th is the New Moon. This is always a powerful time for seeding, setting intentions and focusing on what you want to manifest, which is why I offer the Joyful Manifesting Intensive on the new moon, every two months.

If you'd like to learn more about this transformational yet convenient program go to www.joyfulmanifesting.com.

Whether you join us or not for that, I thought you would enjoy this information. The first segment is from Jose and Lena Stevens, two shamanmic practitioners here in Santa Fe. Their website, from which this is taken, is www.thepowerpath.com.

Enjoy...happy manifesting,
Ellen

************************************************************************
Dear Friends,

A super New Moon is Thursday, October 7 at 12:45 PM Mountain Daylight Time. This new moon supports compassion, forgiveness and healing. This is a good time to recapitulate memories, events and people in your life who still evoke resentment, anger, hurt, jealousy and blame. These negatively charged reactions need to be neutralized and this new moon can support you in doing that. For every charged memory breathe in compassion and forgiveness while turning your head all the way to the left. Then turn your head all the way to the right while exhaling gratitude, neutrality and freedom. You can do this breathing exercise several times on the same charged issue. Do it until you feel a change that moves you towards neutrality. It is also important at this time to step away from others projections, not take anything personally, and stay out of any drama created by another's reactions.

This new moon is about the self. Resist the temptation to project and meddle elsewhere. Take care of your own backyard. Do something that is important to you. Tremendous healing is available to you during this time if you stay focused. Watch the energy leaks!

Blessings,

Lena

Here is an astrological take on the New Moon, from astrologer
Patricia Liles. Contact her at patliles@aol.com

Libra Super New Moon, Thursday, Oct. 7, 12:45 PM MDT at 14º Libra

Note:* Super New Moon is when the Sun is closest to the Earth and in precise alignment with the Moon and Earth increasing its potency. This is the last of three Super New Moons in a row.

We are in that dangerous and exalted moment of metamorphasis when the old skin has become too tight and the new skin is not yet functional. We are vulnerable and raw and as yet unformed. Nonetheless, we are committed to our growth. Each new moon or planetary alignment provides a contraction and undulation that moves us forward in our evolutionary state. The summer has provided an enormous opportunity to go deep and release especially in the lower chakras.

The first chakra at the base of the spine may be releasing issues of deep instinctual fear of loss of survival and what we may have had to do to survive horrific conditions as well as the armoring and protection we hold there as a result. It's where our security and our relationship with our body lie.

Second chakra release may reveal the emotional and sexual issues of past humiliation, joylessness or abuse that have been buried and carried for generations creating extreme sensitivities in our behavior. Located in the abdomen, sexual organs and lower back, this is where we connect through feeling and desire with others - also where we can manipulate others and in turn, be manipulated creating the seesaw of love-hate relationship. Through a cleared second chakra, we can welcome and embrace change and creativity.

The third chakra holds our personal power, will, and intention. Located at the solar plexus near the navel, it distributes our energy and helps us hold and use power in a balanced way. Greed, domination, self destruction and feelings of powerlessness may be asking for passage into the light so one can step into one's true personal power.

Higher-centered states are present, but are not the greater focus. Clearing out the relationship patterns and self-esteem issues engrained by hundreds of years of repetition and cultural reinforcement are up for healing before we move forward into higher frequency experience.

The Super*New Moon chart with the Sun and Moon in Libra focuses us on our relationships and bringing in the energies of balance and cooperation. We are learning to compromise for the sake of relationship. Venus rules this chart. The day after New Moon she goes retrograde (once every 18 mos.) until Nov. 18. Retrograde takes us more deeply within to look again at what we want to give power to in relationship. It brings old relationship issues from the past up to be re-examined and healed. We all know that this relationship work is only with ourselves and our mates, partners, bosses, children, teachers, and neighbors only act as mirrors to show us our inner selves more clearly. Beautiful Venus is in Scorpio, the sign of the dark feminine, so there are incentives for seeking out what lies in the dark and is crying out to be transformed. Where do your attachments lie? How are you protecting your heart? Where are you being standoffish or overly sensitive? Venus also rules money, possessions and values and these areas may be the bone the dogs of our shadow-selves are fighting over with our beloveds. The result of bringing more consciousness to Venus-ruled areas will be felt in more intimacy and shared powerfulness. Venus is traveling with Mars her masculine counterpart. They are in a higher frequency aspect with Jupiter and Uranus. The masculine and feminine planets are aligning with those two rebel rousers, Uranus and Jupiter to shake up and expand the way we hold our male/female energies and relationships. Everyone out there is witness to relationships ending and new ones beginning and unusual alliances forming to learn and grow and create.

Pluto and Ceres are mirroring this cosmic dance of relationship. They were linked long ago in mythology when the God of the Under World, Pluto, kidnapped Ceres' precious daughter, Persephone. Ceres' grief was overwhelming and she made the Earth pay heavily for her unhappiness. Now and through the Full Moon these two planetoids are conjunct and near the North Node, the point of our growth. Their first conjunction brought us the Gulf Oil spill and now their last conjunction on Oct. 19th will keep our relationship to Mother Earth and our own bodies in our minds and hearts. In the sign of Capricorn our government, industry, and authority figures are asked to recognize their on-going responsibility to the planet that nourishes and supports us.

Saturn and Mercury are heavy hitters in this New Moon chart as well. They are within 1º of each other in Libra (7-8º) and closely square the North and South Nodes. The nodes show what we have brought from the past and need to resolve this lifetime to evolve and grow into the gifts of the north node. Mercury squaring the nodes can bring up issues of finding our inner voice, the self-deprecation surrounding our intelligence or under achievement or arrogance about being 'right'. Mercury here wants us to learn to monitor our thoughts and what we are creating with them.

Saturn will show up as challenges in the practical physical world - how to pay the bills, your parent has Alzheimer's, toothaches, or just having to get up in the morning and keep the daily grind going because you see no other way. No internal work=despair, indifference or even hostility (i.e. take out the whole university). Focus and discipline is always the road Saturn points to. Completion and putting one foot in front of the other for the long haul to complete the challenge of transformation to higher frequency, more conscious lives are the name of the game. It may be Saturn's parting message to us as it leaves the huge pressure of the T-Square of the last several months. These are HUGE planetary changes that we are experiencing. We have passed a huge portal as we move pass this New Moon. The next Full Moon of Oct. 22 has no evidence of the T-Square, and the Nov. Full Moon has many trines and harmonious aspects focused on Venus. Continue to awaken, heal and balance the masculine and feminine energies in self and with others throughout this time frame. The issues of this New Moon will easily carry through November. Now we plateau, catch our breath, review all that has taken place since Spring Equinox and prepare for the movement in spring when Uranus moves into Aries and into a long lasting challenging square with Pluto that will carry us through 2012 and beyond bringing sweeping and radical changes to our external political and government and business arenas that reflect the work we are doing internally in our own lives.

10/08 Venus goes retrograde in Scorpio 13º
10/22 Full Moon in Aries 7:38 PM MDT
10/23 Sun enters Scorpio at 6:34 AM PDT
11/07 Daylight Savings Time ends

Inspiration, Oneness & Miracles

2010-09-16T00:07:00.000-07:00

Who says God isn't running the internet? On Google, there is a site that is linked to my blog for some reason I can't figure out, so I decided to go there. I read the following passage and found it beautiful and inspiring. Hope you enjoy it!

"Change is all about neutralizing within ourselves any kind of ego-centered certainty and surrendering through bliss-filled tears into the embrace of the Higher Self, the Immortal Soul, the Infinite Being of Love we each are in essence.

It is opening the floodgates of Divine Light pouring, overflowing and expanding ad infinitum through us. It is unreservedly accepting our True Divine Nature, going with the Flow of Love that spills out endlessly from the Well of Wisdom and Clarity shining at the core of our Being, and soaring ever higher on the waves of Sentient Perfection echoing the Omniversal Creator enshrined into each speck of matter, energy and consciousness throughout the entire dimensional range of Reality. In short, change is shifting up.

What is expected from each one of us in nothing less than remembering, accepting and integrating in every facet of our existence and within the very fabric of our waking consciousness the fact that we each are a Living Miracle, the embodiment of Universal Perfection, and the co-Maker of our evolving reality.

All we need to do is ask... Ask for an universal upgrade... Ask to have our physical self, brain, bones and blood, adjusted to the higher frequencies now seeping through every atom of our physical reality to catalyze and precipitate the Shift of Ages into an unprecedented era of Heaven on Earth, Blissful Happiness in every soul, and ongoing Communion with the universal family of souls living throughout this galactic Milky Way and beyond in the Grand Symphony of Light, Life and Love

You may choose to remain on the sideline of evolution and persist in sticking to your egoic certainties and separate sense of self. There is absolutely nothing wrong in doing so, for you have absolute freewill, just like every other soul in existence. Or you may choose to shift up towards the Light calling us all back into full remembrance of our truly universal, divine nature."

- Taken from Meditation Focus #178: Shifting Up

"You are the temple of the Sun of yourself. So if you have been worrying about something, allow yourself to take a deep breath... right now... feel that easy, deep breath and allow yourself to go within, eyes open or eyes closed, whichever feels comfortable, and go within to the sacred place of the Sun within you, and know that within you is divine radiance. There is nothing that can threaten or change that divine radiance within you. Feel it with your mind's eye. Feel yourself in the Sun within yourself. Know that you are surrounded by the Sunlight that you are. Feel it. Visualize it. Allow it to expand until you feel yourself to be in a bubble of Sunlight. Feel yourself to be safe, secure within the Sunlight of yourself. All that you have ever truly desired abides within the Sun within your own temple, within yourself.

Go within and for a moment allow everything else to be blotted out by the brilliance of the Sun in that space. Visualize how the Sun fills every part of your being. Visualize yourself in the middle of that Sun. Feel its warmth. Feel its power. Feel the security. Nothing can threaten that security. Any time that the world speaks to you of problems, go quickly to your own temple and to your Sun and abide there in the security of the divine essence, the divine radiance that you are. And then if there is something that has been troubling you, bring it within that light and see how it dissolves into nothing, into light, knowing yourself always to be taken care of, always in the Light. You have fashioned a body so that you could walk through this reality to play in this reality, to struggle with all of the challenges that you have collectively agreed upon. But none of those challenges can threaten or change the divine light of you within you."

A Single Person who Cares

2010-09-14T23:59:00.000-07:00

Tonight I was hanging out with my new friend Francesca. Responding to someone who had reached out to her for healing a while back, she blew breath over the phone to ignite the woman's spark of life after she'd ahd surgery. The next day, the woman said "You caught my gossamer thread" and "I don't feel alone anymore."

What changed everything was knowing that just one person cared.

I shared a similar story with her. After the death of a beloved friend, I was in devastating grief for a while. One night I let go of my inhibition completely and wailed away in my apartment. Part of me didn't care if anyone heard, the pain was so deep and it so needed to be released--and the other part of me wanted someone to hear.

My upstairs neigbhor Deborah, a sweet person and mom to a 5 year old, called me and said "Do you want to come upstairs where I can hold you or rock you?"

It was so caring, so real...I didn't actually need or want to go up to her place but knowing I was heard and someone cared made all the difference.

So, if you are the only one to hear someone's cry, or if you question whether you can do anything for another person in pain or need...the power of one is vast...don't underestimate it. Don't underestimate the grace you convey through listening to the man at the cash register, or letting someone you hardly know, be deeply seen and heard.

It's not about being Atlas and holding up the world, just about caring for another person, the one who's right in front of you. (It might even be yourself!).

Tikkun Olam--the healing of the world. It begins here:
See me, feel me, touch me, heal me. (Remember that song by the Who from Tommy?)

Love to you from this sacred & special place on planet Earth--Santa Fe, City of Holy Faith,
Ellen

Manifesting Mondays: coming right up!

2010-09-10T14:47:00.000-07:00

We've just had the New Moon in Virgo--new moons are always good for new ideas, a new cycle, and setting intentions. That's why I offer the Joyful Manifesting 5 day Intensive on the new moon, every other month. The next one is
in October.

To take advantage of the new moon energy in the months when there is no Intensive, such as this month (September), join me for a Manifesting Monday session--the next one is coming up on Monday, September 13th.

Why would you consider this program? If you've had good experiences through my free teleclasses, the bi-monthly Intensives or working with me one on one, you can continue and deepen your momentum in creating and manifesting. It's good for business, personal, health and relationship goals and helps get you clear so the Law of Attraction can work for you and bring you what you consciously desire, instead of what you are unconsciously broadcasting out there.

Unlike the Intensive, which is 5 days in a row, this is a one-time proxy session and it's $40. What is proxy? Proxy is by distance--I do the session and serve as the "proxy" for the members of the group. That means you don't have to call in, or even be meditating or tuning in. You don't have to set time aside to particpate--I do all the work remotely. You just sign up and write down a few intentions as guided.

If you are interested, you can sign up at my website at:
http://www.repattern.com/Manifesting_Mondays.shtml.

Many blessings,
Ellen

PS Also please mark your calendars for the next f*ree Repatterning
Teleclass: Sept 29th-Wednesday--topic is "Get Into Action!"

Happy New Year & New Moon

2010-09-08T14:41:00.000-07:00

Hi..I'm back after an entire month hiatus! I've been travelling and working..and playing too. But, I missed posting here and connecting with you in this way.

Today is the first night of the Jewish New Year, Rosh Hashanah. This is the official start of the Jewish High Holy Days and the culmination of a time period in the Jewish calendar that is all about reflecting on yourself, your life and what you want to change and re-set for the coming year. It also coincides with the harvest, and as the growing cycle ends and we reap what we've already sown, it is perfect time for contemplation and meditation.

Then we have the new moon in Virgo tonight, so another opportunity to set goals and intentions. From Susan Miller's Astrology Zone: "This new moon in Virgo will help you lay the groundwork for the year to come. It's a great time to plan and reflect on all that you hope to happen at the year ahead."

Virgo helps us focus on health, order, and organization so why not use this energy to consider these areas of your life?

May you be inscribed for a year of joy, health, prosperity and all of life's blessings!

L'shanah tovah (Happy New Year),
Ellen

Joyful Manifesting Intensive! Coming right up & How to prepare for it

2010-08-08T16:18:00.000-07:00

Greetings.how is your August going? I'm having a wonderful working vacation on the East Coast. Mercifully the extreme heat broke and it's been the best of summer weather here.

And, I'm looking forward, as usual, to the adventure that is the 5 day Joyful Manifesting Intensive. On the new moon, Tuesday August 10th,I will begin the first session-to clear the obstacles to whatever you are wanting to manifest. It is 5 sessions, 5 days in a row--a lot of repatterning, for less than the price of a single private session.

If you would like to be part of this, or just learn more, please visit the site at http://www.joyfulmanifesting.com

Already signed up? Here is how to prepare for it. If you've done it before it's the same instructions as usual.

Take a few minutes to sit quietly, relax and tune in. Then decide what your two goals or intentions are for this Intensive. What area of your life feels most in need of change or positive momentum? Is it your income, your relationships or the lack of intimacy, is it health, is it clarity on a business or other life decision? And what quality or personal strength do you need most at this time?

Write them down for yourself. You are welcome to email them to me, but that is entirely optional, to ProsperityCoachLN@gmail.com.

1. A tangible goal: something you would recognize when it arrives. Be specific, not just "more prosperity" but something like "another 6 clients a month" "another $1000 of regular income a month", etc.
2. An intangible goal or quality: examples--peace of mind, relaxation, trust, etc.

And then stay tuned for your session notes!

Many blessings,
Ellen

Say Yes to Life!

2010-07-28T23:03:00.000-07:00

We had a sweet but powerful call tonight. The topic: Staying Centered in Turbulent Times. There was a brief meditation, including the Abundance Decree by Maureen Moss, followed by a Committment Repatterning.

This repatterning looks at what our percentage of committment is to a particular goal or intention. Our overall intention for this session was to "Say Yes to Life". As the session began, we were only resonating between 10 and 15% committed to "Saying Yes to Life". That means that 85 to 90% of our behavior, emotional energy and subconscious programming was saying no (or at least not saying yes) to life. Talk about driving with the brakes on!

After the session, the group is now resonating with 100% committment to saying yes to life.

That's nice, you say, but you missed the call? No worries, mate. You may actually listen to the recording of the session and receive the benefit that way. I set that intention when I began the session, that it will repattern not just the people present on the call, but anyone who listens to it later. How cool is that? We call that in the world of repatterning: retro-intending. Because time is not linear, this actually works!

So here's the link. The recording is about an hour. To get the most out of it, I recommend listening to it in one sitting, uninterrupted. Treat this like an actual healing session--because it is. You wouldn't go to a coach, healer or therapist and multi-task. And it will be much more powerful that way. In fact, people have had powerful reactions to listening to the recording so don't think this is just food for the mind. It's the real deal. Enjoy!

Come home to yourself..back to center..tomorrow!

2010-07-27T09:53:00.000-07:00

Doesn't that sound enticing?

It's so easy to be set spinning in this accelerated
time--by people, situations, finances, the constant
pace of change, how fast everything is moving.

So come on in, pull up a chair, relax, because
tomorrow night, July 28th,we get to step out of the whirlwind
with a f*ree group repatterning session, called
"Staying Centered in Turbulent Times".

It's one hour starting at 7:30pm Eastern, 5:30 Mountain
and 4:30 Pacific time.

I'm looking forward to hearing you on the call.
It will be recorded.

Today: A Day out of Time

2010-07-25T21:52:00.000-07:00

Tonight I learned something interesting at the birthday party of the lovely Jan Stringer, whose latest book is "Bee-ing Attraction"-she's a great business coach and new member of the amazing Santa Fe tribe I'm part of here. She shared that today in the Mayan Calender is considered a Day out of Time, the last day of the year.

I woke up to soft rain falling--a rare thing here in Northern New Mexico and everything was so still. All I could do was my lemon water and then I fell into my armchair for a long delicious meditation.

Had a visit from a friend and we sat out in the moist cool air, enjoying the green of my growing garden..our conversation touched on many things and it truly felt timeless. Our lunch visit stretched to 4 pm and while I certainly have plenty to do--today was not the day for doing it. NO busyness of the world for me today.

It's not just that it's a summer Sunday--in fact my mood and energy on any summer Sunday this year is nothing like the social, relaxed and laid-back pattern of Sundays in other summers--but today is/was a day out of time. That explains a lot!

Also, if you've ever felt, like I have, that our Gregorian calendar seems irregular and not in synch with anything--when you read about the Mayan calendar--and other calendars based on moon, star and solar cycles--we were right.

Read this very interesting excerpt about the meaning of the Day out of Time in the Mayan calendar when you have a little time.

Mayan Day out of Time
Sunday, July 25, is an important day in the Mayan calendar. The Mayan calendar is built around a 13-month cycle, each month has exactly 28 days which totals to 364 days. The last day of the year is left out of this count and therefore is "out of time". This day is considered an opportunity for a big change: purification and healing, for forgiveness of debts and old grievances, a time for achieving peace, a great time to clarify our understanding, focus on direction and create a major shift in our lives. Especially after the Conscious Convergence on July 17th and 18th time is accelerating as we move with the new wave of energy that we created with our focused and collective intention during these two days.

I live my life by a truth that was gifted to me as a child when I was visited by a beautiful woman dressed in white who appeared one day when I was 10 accompanied by a white wolf. She spoke to me that I was not alone and in the years that would follow I would come to understand why I had been brought here as a faith keeper. That white wolf remained by my side as my animal ally and spirit teacher to guide me and to walk with me on a Shamanic path of peace and truth. There is an every increasing awareness of the Mayan calendar and the significance of 2012. Everywhere I go I hear discussions and am asked questions regarding the significance of this date.

It is my truth that I simply share, having a strong belief that each day more and more souls are awakening and a huge shift in consciousness is occurring. What happened during the time of the Conscious Convergence in the ancient stones of the Star Walkers and Navigators was felt around the world as we are all joined together. 2012 I believe will continue to accelerate the awakening and we will in deed move into a higher vibrational frequency that will support the focused dream of oneness and unity. It is not an instantaneous event where one switch will turn off and another turn on nor is it the ending of the world. I choose to look at everything around me as a message, sometimes strong messages of warning but more now than ever messages of hope that we as global citizens can make a difference.

The current calendar the world now operates under known as the Gregorian calendar was imposed as an instrument of power and as a symbol of dominance by European conquerors over the Maya, Inca and Aztec civilizations—all of whom used, among other calendars, the 13 Moon/28 Day count. This 13 moon calendar was used by other ancient civilizations such as the Druids, the Essenes and the ancient Egyptians. It had also been identified as the Calendar of Thoth. If you have felt more stress and that you have less time it is because your vibrational field is realigning itself to truth and to the natural cycle and order that our earth vibrates at. Not the time manipulated system created by mankind to control other civilizations and nature itself.

On this very special day take the time to sit once again in stillness. If you can be near earth, dirt, or sand at the beach take a handful and slowly let the grains of sand or particles of dirt slip through your lightly held hands. If you live in the city you can even use corn meal for this ritual. This is so very symbolic of so many things ocurring in our lives right now. Each particle of earth and sand represents something you are letting go of. An old hurt or wound, a disappointment, an anger, a grievance or judgment. It can be an entire way of life as many of us are feeling our world is completely changing in some way. Focus on your breath and as you release the particles back to the earth feel your vibration being elevated. On a piece of paper write down the debts you are forgiving (old loves, old relationships, expectations not fulfilled). Forgive yourself of any guilts you continue to hold on to. Let go of feeling unworthy. This serves absolutely no purpose for you to be less than who you were intended to be. It is time to claim who you are and step forward. Fold the paper in half away from you and burn the paper symbolizing transformation. Remember we are still in the energy of 2010, the Year of the Phoenix Rising from the ashes. Bury the ashes in the earth giving gratitude to the earth mother and make your commitment to walk the earth in balance. This is also a Full Moon and full moons always represent completion, end of cycles, coming into our full power so this can be an especially powerful night to do the Uncrossing Ritual for those of you who have my 2010 Moon cycle and Ritual book.

The more you take the time to do the inner journey, to sit and be still to receive guidance from the greatest teacher you have (yourself) the more you will find your emotions stabalizing. Many of you have felt depressed, angry, frustrated and restless. Some have felt physically fatigued and emotionally drained. There is a continuous movement of energy now to raise your vibration. Opportunities such as these special celebrations of life can assist. These emotions will hold you in a lower vibration and you will not be able to truly move forward until you clear them. There are waves of energy coming rapidly now and we need to move through these times with determination and hope. We will all have moments of doubt and old fears will return only to be embraced and transformed if we allow the process to occur.

As always take a few moments to see your light moving through a web connecting with millions of souls around our planet. Feel yourself being part of a great awakening and feel how your light is so very important to the whole. We can not move forward if we do not move together. When you are complete with your personal ritual do something to bring beauty into the world. Go see a movie that inspires you, listen to beautiful music that soothes you, paint or create something beautiful, buy yourself some beautiful flowers or go into a garden and observe the amazing beauty that surrounds you.

Most important smile, feel alive and share your light with others. I continue to create the prayer circles so if there is anyone in need, or yourself, please send me the name of the person or persons and I will include them in the prayers of healing.

Much love, rainbows and joy on this magnificent day out of time.

An interview with Yours Truly

2010-07-22T23:57:00.000-07:00

I am happy to share this recording of Meira Findel, the Holistic Accountant, interviewing me. We decided to do this right now to
promote my Prosperity Party - my East Coast "tour" coming right
up in August(I AM a rock star,I am! I even have a photo of me in cool dark shades playing guitar, albeit air guitar, to prove it. And like any rock star, I go on tour!)

Meira's been a colleague, friend and fan for years but her major turnaround after a recent session with me is what led her to offer to assist me and promote me to her amazing network. I am so grateful!

The interview gives you more background and explanation of repatterning--and how I came to be doing this work. There's an emphasis on the work I do with clients around money and prosperity.

Here is the interview, it's about 45 minutes long.

Enjoy!

With love,

PS Have you marked your calendar yet for my upcoming
f*ree monthly teleclass, 7/28 at 7:30 pm Eastern?
You just dial in at that time and listen..anyone on
the call receives the session, whether you speak or
not. It will be recorded and posted here.

Staying Centered in Turbulent Times teleclass
Wednesday, July 28 from 7:30-8:30 Eastern.
Dial-in: 1-712-432-1600 Access 121233#.

Come together, right now!

2010-07-14T09:01:00.000-07:00

Yes, that's the title of a Beatle song..but these are the lyrics my inner radio station KLNS (formerly WLNS radio)is playing right now--remember this one? from the Youngbloods:

"Love is but a song we sing,
Fear is the way we die,
You can make the mountains ring,
Or make the angels cry,
Come on people now,
Smile on your brother,
Everybody get together,
try to love one another right now"

So many people are in fear, feeling separate, feeling alone, feeling backed to the wall by finances, or by the pressure of all their inner issues coming up. I do hear you--and I can relate too.

Someone wrote me this morning about being a really tight financial squeeze. She and her family have just enough money to eat until next payday. She doesn't even have enough money to call in for my free teleclasses. Another client wrote me about feeling tapped out and completely unsupported, having lost faith in people.

Like them, I've experienced a financial squeeze lately, and feeling like I'm alone on the planet--even though I know it's not really true and that I have many choices, options and solutions. When I go to that place, I only see from fear and contraction. But I cannot afford to stay there for long, I just simply can't. And neither can you.

We MUST manage our internal state and our inner dialogue. It is no longer an option if we are to continue here. It is only from that space that I can help myself or help others. And I believe this is part of the purpose of all this change and turbulence--for us to take charge, fully and completely, of mastering our own minds and inner state. Otherwise we will be rocked too far.

I repeat--the key is keeping our state stable, being able to witness with compassion what we or others are going through, and allow our feelings in a safe container. Allowing our feelings, yet also keeping a perspective that this is all temporary, and that from wherever we are, a shift is possible.

It's all in your state of mind and being. Can you find compassion and kindness in your heart?

And what helps? There are the practices that we do or can learn--meditation, prayer, journaling, reading inspirational books or listening to uplifitng talks or music. Walking in nature, dancing, doing yoga, doing EFT, Sedona method, reiki--whatever you know to do to keep letting go and coming back to center. For someone it might be cooking, or working with clay. Nothing is better or worse--just look at what works for you and do it!

These are not a luxury any more--they are vital to our sanity and being able to function and be of service to our families and the world.

The key right now is coming together for like minded support. We're in the Aquarian age which is all about group consciousness, not relying on authority, like government, corporations or any kind of "boss". So, we are the ones we've been waiting for (Hopi prophecy).

Find like minded others-whether it's another mom on the park bench, a repatterning teleclass with me, a yoga class, get your friends together. We cannot do it alone anymore, and we aren't meant to.

Whenever I get lost, what helps me most is connecting to others--hearing a friend's voice, going over to Santa Fe Soul, the health and healing center I work at, and chatting with other practitioners.

The other key is gratitude, and asking "what one little thing can I do for myself (or another) right now?" Sometimes the smallest actions have the most power to change our state.

Here's a beautiful example a client shared with me, illustrating the value of group support and of gratitude:

"I was beginning to feel hopeless, wondering what the point of everything was. A group of my colleagues [yoga teachers] began to gather around me in support for new motherhood and pitched in for me to get some self-care. Then from a discussion with about 6 yoga teachers online, they all started telling me these things that I had done for them, which were just things that I do.

Like one of them... her mom had breast cancer and no insurance. Our local studio had a benefit for her and her mom to help pay for the chemo and people were donating through paypal for some complimentary therapies.

I used to teach with her on Saturday mornings and I would press five/ten dollars into her hand every week. I had wanted to donate money to some cause anyway and wanted to see it go to someone I knew. Another one thanked me for helping her to find a cranio-sacral therapist for her son and he didn't have to have tubes put in his ears.

I was beginning to think that people were just self-absorbed and didn't really care or maybe couldn't care beyond what they had going on with their lives.... and they started reminding me that the little things I do make a big difference.

Every time I start to despair over the last couple weeks (and I have been really down for awhile- this birth tapped everything I had), something happens to give me back that glimmer of hope."

So, start a gratitude club. Call people you know and express gratitude for things they have done for you. Express gratitude to yourself for all that you do for you, for your children, family, clients, or others. Trade appreciations with someone else. Start a gratitude diary for all that you appreciate. If you're in a tough place, appreciating your breath, that you have a roof over your head, your next glass of water--start there.

Whatever we focus on expands. Focus on gratitude, the support and love of friends, family, colleagues and community, the support of the earth in providing food and water. Focus on keeping your mind clear and positive, or neutral and a detached, witnessing the ups and downs of life.

Whatever works--just do it! And come back here to read and replenish, come back to find recordings of free sessions, and guidance for these times we are ALL going through. You are not alone.

Rest in your Heart's Abode.

Om shanti, shalom, Ellen

Questions to Consider in Preparing for Monday's Manifesting teleclass

2010-07-10T13:49:00.000-07:00

To unblock your manifesting magic, here are some good questions to consider and write your answers to. This is useful, whether you will join me for Monday's teleclass or not.

The purpose of the session is to identify anything that is currently blocking your manifesting what you want—a belief, a perception of lack in your life, feelings of being undeserving, fear of having what you want. To prepare for the session, please read this post and spend some time answering the questions.

If you don't want to miss out, don't forget to register by midnight, Sunday night, July 11th. (I won't be checking registration till Monday morning around 10 Mountain time,but I can't guarantee your participation unless I hear from you by the deadline. Thanks for understanding.)

Sign up here: http://www.repattern.com/Manifesting_Mondays.shtml

Questions for Manifesting teleclass on July 12 2-3pm Eastern

Overall intention of session: To identify anything that is currently blocking your manifesting what you want. That might be a belief, a perception of lack in your life, feelings of being undeserving, fear of having what you want. To prepare for the session, please read this post and spend some time answering the questions.

If there are things you want to manifest, or you are wanting and needing a miracle of more abundance in your life—what are you waiting for?

The link to register, one mo' time:
http://www.repattern.com/manifesting_Mondays.shtml

1. If you aren’t clear on at least three things you want to manifest in your life, whether that’s a state of mind like peace or self-confidence, or particular outcomes or objects—like a certain number of new clients, observable momentum in your business, a certain amount of money—take some time over the next 48 hours—we are in range of the new moon energy of July 11th already—to meditate, ask for guidance and clarity about what those three things might be.

Like me, you may have a lot that you are choosing to manifest—much more than 3 items on your list. That’s great—it’s good to ask! But for purposes of this call, and focusing more specifically, we will look at those three things. One item on the list should be the quality or way of being that having the other 2 items will give you. For example, if you are wanting to generate 1 new project or 3 new clients in your work, and an additional $1000 in the next week—what quality would that give you? Would it make you feel more peaceful, have more faith and truth, or help you feel more connected to Source?

Write down your three items.

2.Limiting beliefs or negative thoughts—as you did the above exercise, did any limiting beliefs come up, such as “I can’t have what I want.” Write those down too. Did any thoughts come up about the economy, or other things you heard growing up, about money or success or having good things?

3. Metal Element Focus: In this session we will have an added focus on the metal element, which in Chinese medicine consists of two meridians, or energy pathways. One is Lung (breathing in, taking in what is inspiring) and the other is Large Intestine (letting go, what is toxic, worn out or no longer needed).

a)What do you need to let go of that you are holding onto?
b)What do you need to take in, receive or open the space for in your life?

Happy manifesting,
Ellen

****************************************************
NEW MOON Sunday - 11 July 2010 - A DAY TO MEDITATE AND MANIFEST
"When a Total Solar Eclipse occurs on a NEW Moon a very special energy of transformation occurs. On July 11 this will take place. Take time for this day, and utilize its extraordinary potentials for the positive. Keep your energy intact, and do not allow emotions to fray.

Solar Eclipse is a New Moon with an extremely tremendous impact. The Sun that gives us life and lights our path is joined briefly with the dark and mysterious qualities of the Moon. The Moon blocks the light of the Sun. In this moment of perceived darkness, spirituality and the psyche combine anew, beginning another cycle in the spiral of our personal development. Great openings and great closures can occur...great advancement or untoward downward spiral. This Eclipse is extremely meaningful.

The last time there was a solar eclipse at this same degree of Cancer was in 1991; the next one will be in 2029. Think back to the personal themes in your life during the summer of 1991 and review the progress of your personal growth over the last 19 years.

All eclipses indicate change; solar eclipses signify beginnings and usually manifest as events in the outer world. At solar eclipses we: begin something completely new, make promises to ourselves, commit, announce, present ourselves, show up, make plans, select events, make decisions, rise to the challenge, make an effort, change, mature, take on greater challenges, travel at a faster pace, feel restless, feel pressured by deadlines and a buildup of emotions, experience a crisis and feel excited.

There are two kinds of solar eclipses. North nodal eclipses have a personal orientation and symbolize personal identity, ego and the physical body. South nodal eclipses are other-oriented and symbolize a spouse or significant other, relationships and new perspectives based on interaction with others. This is a south nodal eclipse, suggesting that we are being called to use previously learned skills and talents in new ways and that the opportunities to do so will come through our relationships.This solar eclipse takes place with the Sun and Moon in Cancer. The tarot card associated with the sign of Cancer is the Chariot card. It teaches us the defining quality of self thru speech; how self-talk, inner intent and outward expression must align to create our reality. Universal forces provide protection while tenacity assures victory and triumph. This represents the cyclic aspect of change and is associated with psychic receptivity. Confer with Spirit, with your Divine Self and Guidance during the Solar Eclipse of July 11th.

Eclipse periods are extremely active, often associated with meaningful events and public exposure. The impact of the July 11 Eclipse will have impact lasting three years. Expect to see current themes begin to develop ambitiously on their own at the end of next April, 2011. A full understanding of the impact of this period will take until the end of 2011 to unfold. But it will be great and potent!"

Happy New Moon,
Ellen

If You Want to Change the World, Tell a Better Story!

2010-07-05T10:42:00.000-07:00

I am inspired by the lovely speaker, writer and facilitator Gail Larsen. She says "If you want to change the world, tell a better story!". Her business is Real Speaking, coaching and empowerment for speakers and others who want to get their voices out. Her 4th of July talk at the Celebration (the spiritual community I attend on Sundays)was titled "Calling All Voices: Your Truth will set us Free".

There were many gems in her talk, including "Be Yourself. Everyone Else is Taken" which is a principle of her work. Another take away for me was that we need different solutions and ideas now to deal with the many challenges we face on the economic, environmental, health and global levels, not just trying to adapt and edit ourselves and what we truly need and want into old political and economic models.

She gave us four vital questions to contemplate and answer for ourselves--perfect for this Cardinal Cross time of seeing what is true alive and really works NOW.

1. What brings you alive?
2. What breaks your heart?
Your answer to these first two questions is a great guide to where you are being called to direct your creative energy and time.
3. What does healing look like?
4. What simple action can you take (to address any of the above)now?

For me, writing more here, letting my voice be heard, and being willing to associate with powerful people who are committed to truth and making a difference, are some of my answers.

And for you? What are your answers to these powerful questions?
Enjoy your contemplation and feel free to share your comments on the blog!

To Our True Freedom and Independence,
Ellen

PS Gail's website is http://www.RealSpeaking.net.
In a later post I will share with you her 5 principles of Transformational Speaking, which are explained fully in her book "Transformational Speaking".

Intense enough for you yet?

2010-07-03T21:28:00.000-07:00

A dear friend passed this on, and it's one of the best writings I've seen on a current astrological event called the Grand Cardinal Cross..a phase that we're in which began last Saturday, June 26th.

If there was ever an auspicious time to do belief clearing and intention setting like what I offer, this is it!

May you be enriched and supported by this information. As my friend and astrologer, Dawn Silver said, "These are not normal times!"

Keep breathing, step up your spiritual practices and self-care, and call me if you need some extra support.

Love and light,
Ellen
**********************************************************
Grand Cardinal Cross of June 26th, Eclipses of June and July
(this information is from Lisa Zimmerman, Astrologer)

On a scale of 1-10, if the intensity has been at level 10 for you recently, it may go up a notch to 11. This is the path of evolution and if you are conscious, you are awakening to a higher vibration with each step you take.

The Eclipses are here and they can generate dramatic events and changes that you never saw coming, but you don't have to let them rock your world. Stand in your power, be courageous and rock your own world!

We're in the midst of a Grand Cardinal Cross, which requires that you operate from your highest vision when you're confronted with challenges or stressful situations and keep the focus on what you want to create. Using that as a focal point can be a steadying influence during times of uncertainty.

The Lunar Eclipse on Sat, June 26th at 7:30am ET is part of the Grand Cross and is in the sign of Capricorn, which rules your authority, your professional life, commitments, responsibility and structures.

Lunar Eclipses are about endings and I encourage you to be proactive and work WITH the energy rather than letting the energy work on you while you remain passive. Release your attachment to non-working patterns, clear, delegate and move on wherever called for. If it feels too scary to make a move, reach out and ask for help - there's so much available.

It's time to get real, be disciplined and take responsibility for what's not working in your life. That old story you tell about why you are like this, can't do that, what "they" did to you, has got to go. Your attachment to that story has you imprisoned and it's time for a hostage release! Step into your authority and trust your Self.

The Solar Eclipse on Sun, July 11th at 3:40pm ET is a New Moon in Cancer that rules home, family, security and your emotional needs. Your emotional needs are primal and non-negotiable. If your needs are not being met you are probably not a happy camper! The Solar Eclipse is about new beginnings, so this is the time to examine your emotional needs, domestic and personal life and make any needed corrections.

Cancer brings up quality of life issues and whatever is out of alignment will be up for review and restructuring. Pluto on the Moon opposing the Sun can bring ego issues and power struggles. Uranus/Jupiter in Aries opposing Saturn can bring up repressed energies and some people will act out like you can't believe! You'll wonder, "What was that?!!" Still others will come from their Higher Selves and will surprise you by taking the high road when you least expect it. Remember, you always have a choice in how you respond to any experience.

It's so easy to be triggered around issues of security, especially when the unexpected occurs. If you knew that you had the power to create at will, wouldn't that give you a sense of security? Instead of projecting outward and trying to control your environment or fearing what may happen, focus on your creations! Please know that chaos or disruption isn't mandatory during an Eclipse, but if you have that experience, practice impeccable self-care.

You may take a sideways step into a new reality where you feel different and all your familiar reference points have been shifted. You may not recognize yourself or where you are, but don't be frightened and go into reaction - you've just arrived in a new country where you don't speak the language yet (cool...)! Allow yourself the space to integrate any new energies that arrive in or around you.

Faith that all is in Divine order and the intention to do whatever it takes to be who you came here to be will carry you during times of change. You are a Lightworker who came to help evolve humanity at this time and regardless of what your shadow may tell you at times, you are the essence of pure goodness.

Recommit to your path and your Higher Self's journey - the company is excellent!
