THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Move beyond doubt!

September 13, 2010 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

Where there is doubt, let there be Light, for the Light chases away doubt. Doubt comes from dark thoughts, from believing that one is separate from the Light. Doubt begins because a seed has been planted like a weed in a garden of Light. If the seed of doubt is watered and fertilized it takes over the garden, just as a weed does.

You must make sure that you are not watering and fertilizing the seeds of doubt that blow into your personal garden of Light. Sometimes these seeds come from society and societal beliefs, sometimes from people in your life. Sometimes they develop from previous life experiences that are not truly representative or relevant to your current situation.  Be aware that doubt is the enemy of enlightenment. Doubt chokes out the Light that is unfolding within you.

There is only one purpose in doubt – it points to the place in your life that is begging for attention. Do you doubt that you can be successful?  Then examine how you are limiting or even sabotaging your own success. Do you doubt that you can have healthy relationships? Then examine how you are not in a healthy relationship within yourself, or how you can be or become the kind of person/partner you wish to attract. Do you doubt that you can find happiness or even that you deserve happiness? Then examine your definition of happiness and ask if you are looking outside yourself for something that must come from within.

Do not doubt, Dear Ones, that you are less than perfect just as you are, for that which you might label as an ‘imperfection’ in yourself at the moment is merely the pointer for your current lesson.

Conscious Living demands that the individual live a self-examined life. To slide through life without honestly examining one’s inner existence, inner workings and the choices one makes leads one away from happiness and fulfillment. Human beings have an awareness of Self that can lead to extraordinary leaps of consciousness when they look for growth through that awareness and understanding. Many, though, choose to live in denial of their own power to effect the course of their lives, preferring instead to give away that power to external sources.

You are not a canoe with no one to paddle and steer, being carried through life by the flow of the river. No, you are the one with the paddles, choosing your life’s direction in every moment. You choose whether to go with the flow or paddle upstream. You choose how to avoid obstacles or go through them. You choose which branch of the river to follow when you reach a fork. Do not hand those paddles over to someone else. Do not doubt that you are in charge of the direction of your life.

You may not be able to control the weather or the obstacles in your path, but your life is not controlled by those. Your Life is how you respond to those things over which you have no control.

Never doubt that you always have choices about how you respond to challenges. If you allow doubt to control you, then you are giving away the paddles of your canoe.

Keep paddling. Open yourself to guidance. Look at challenges as information, as opportunities for growth, for there is great Light awaiting you on the other side of every lesson. Claim your own power and seek the Light. You will always be rewarded for making this choice.

And so it is.

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Learn the Lessons and Love Yourself

September 6, 2010 — Rosemary
Dear Ones,
What are you listening to in your Life today?  What kind of music?  What kind of nature sounds?  What kind of outside noises?  But, most importantly, what kind of messages are you ingesting in your daily Life?

If you watch a lot of TV, you are being bombarded by messages, from newscasters, from commercials, from people who express opinions that may or may not be based on fact and intellectual analysis.  Whatever you read, whether the newspaper or a novel, a non-fiction or a textbook, contains messages that are being absorbed by your psyche and often accepted unconsciously as true for you.

The most insidious messages are being accepted by your unconscious mind because they come from someone you trust, even someone you love and whom you thought loved you.  Parents are comparing their children to others with the subtle message that their child is not good enough.  Superiors at work are giving out criticisms thinking they are focusing on getting the job done but the employee is hearing, ‘I can’t do anything right.’  Teachers have a pet who gets the best grades and other students think they’re not lovable because they aren’t as academically successful.  The list goes on and on.  And sometimes the saddest case is when a life partner criticizes or ‘puts down’ their partner, implying, again, that they are not ‘good enough’ or that they are ‘unlovable.’

What messages have you embraced that are not about your inherent goodness but you believe them because someone you trust or trusted in the past told you they were true?  How many religious leaders have told their congregations that they are not worthy, not good enough?  Have you ever taken the time to examine what you do and do not believe about yourself?  Have you ever asked yourself WHY you believe some things that you believe?

Today is the day to start examining your thoughts, your beliefs about yourself and who you really are.  You are a person with a big heart.  You have a good mind.  You are worthy of being treated well, by all those with whom you come into contact.  You are lovable, just the way you are today.  There is nothing that you need to do to earn anyone else’s love.  You can give love to others.  You can figure out the solutions you need or you can ask for help, which you deserve to receive.  You have always been this way.  You have always deserved to be loved, so if Life has given you experiences that contradict this, then examine those experiences and ask yourself if they were about the other person and not about you. [They were.]

That little baby who was you a few years ago is still as lovable as he or she was then.  That baby lives within you.  If you are resisting these words today, then get in touch with that tiny, innocent baby and love it.  Grow that love up to today.  Everything you have done or been in the past has helped you to grow into the person you are today.  Accept that with gratitude.  Every behavior you have exhibited, every choice you have made, has helped you to evolve.  If you are feeling stuck, then examine your current situation for the learning that is there.  There is ALWAYS something to learn, so if you are stuck it is because you haven’t finished what you need to experience.

Forgive yourself for the choices that you have made.  You did the best you could in that moment.  Knowing what you know now you might make a different choice, but in that moment you made a choice that brought you lessons, albeit painful ones sometimes.  Forgive others.  This does not mean that you must believe that what has harmed you is acceptable and it does not mean that you must stay in relationship with people who have or continue to hurt you.  But to hold onto anger and unforgiveness harms you without resolving the issue or, indeed, having anything to do with the other person.  Forgiving others means deciding that you will no longer give them power over your own Life.  You choose now to release whatever strings they have been holding that continue to affect your Life.  Let them go to learn their own lessons – then you can be complete with yours.

Learn the lessons and love yourself in the process.  Life is really as simple as that!

And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: What is your unconscious mind deciding for you?

August 31, 2010 — Rosemary

It seems as if we’re always being told to examine our thoughts, our beliefs.  That’s not as easy as it sounds.

I’ve worked with people who are literally shocked to discover some of the things that they believe.  Our unconscious minds are powerful helpers in our journey of personal growth, but with that power comes an ability to derail our best efforts, the decisions we make consciously but without the agreement of our unconscious minds.

Does this sound difficult to believe?  Let’s look at how powerful that unconscious mind can be.

You can breathe without thinking about it, right?  You don’t go around telling your heart to ‘Beat Now, and Now, and Now,’ do you?  Somewhere in your system is a controller taking care of all those systems so you don’t have to make a conscious decision to get your heart to beat or your lungs to expand.  So why shouldn’t that ‘controller’ be making other decisions for you?  Like how you will respond to a stimulus that is similar to what you experienced when you were 5 or 7 years old?  What about that knee-jerk reaction you had?  Did you consciously choose that or did it come from somewhere else?

Prejudice comes from training in our youth.  In the show, ‘South Pacific,’ they say that you must be carefully taught to hate.  But once those seeds of hatred are planted, you might not even know that you believe that someone ‘should be hated.’  Or what about those family stories that plant a seed about who you are supposed to be?  ‘Our family always does…….’ [fill in the blank].  There can be some powerful beliefs ingrained in us as children that we don’t even recognize are at work.

And so, as adults, we go along thinking that we are in charge when the truth is that our unconscious minds are holding onto beliefs and thoughts about ourselves and the world that might not be valid anymore.  The bogeyman under the bed might not actually be there but the little child within might still be afraid of a strange situation.

How do we use this information in our adult lives?  The first place to start is to examine what we believe.  In every situation, the question to ask is, ‘Is what I believe about this situation true?’  When we are responding to a particular stimulus, we can ask ourselves if the response is appropriate in this moment or is our unconscious mind adding on some data from previous experiences that might not apply right now.  This ability to ask questions of ourselves is the first step to living a conscious life.

And we must question what comes at us and to us from outside sources.  If you are told something that doesn’t feel right, pause and ask yourself what it is exactly that you are feeling.  What, within yourself, is not resonating with this information?  Or what IS resonating with this information, and can you believe something new or contrary to what you believed before?

These questions only help us if we have already started to examine ourselves.  Being on a path of personal growth invites us to become aware in every moment of our own thoughts and beliefs.  For some, this might require help at first, especially in clearing away blocks held in the unconscious mind and difficult to unearth for examination.  The good news is that the more you practice examining your thoughts and beliefs the easier it is to continue.  It rapidly becomes a way of life as your understanding deepens of the intricate relationship of your conscious and unconscious minds.

Personal growth is the path to bringing more Light into your life.  Embrace the journey.  Do the work.  Examine what you believe, both consciously and unconsciously, and grow.

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Are you willing to change your beliefs?

August 30, 2010 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

People are gathering.  Are you noticing this?  People are gathering with those who think the way they do.  They are not gathering to discuss ideas and issues.  They are gathering to fuel their emotions by listening to others who think as they do, with the same open-mindedness or closed-mindedness that they embrace.

But there are some who are finding their Tribes. They are finding those who also wish to uplift the World.  Those who are feeling called to assist all of humanity in growing, in evolving, are looking for others who feel a mission to do the same.  These are the groups who are gaining power in the World.

The media reports on the groups that are the most vocal, the most emotional.  Many media outlets, especially in the Western part of the World, are fueling this emotionalism by carefully determining what they will and won’t share with their audiences, picking and choosing so-called ‘facts’ and ignoring truth.  Some countries have always had government-controlled information channels but more countries are operating that way in this time.

What does this mean to you as you attempt to live a Conscious Life?  Here is what we would say to you.

Be very careful about what information, images, thoughts and ideas you embrace.  We are not saying you need to believe this person or that, but you must decide for yourself where your truth is in a given moment.  Can you be a solid rock in a moving stream of information and mis-information?  Can you at the same time be an open-minded individual who is willing to examine new information and, possibly, change your position if the information leads you to do so?

Those who hold fast to ideas that may have been true for them in the past, even when current evidence indicates that those ideas are no longer valid, are the people who are refusing to evolve and to grow.  The others, however, who continue to explore new ideas, may or may not change their beliefs as a result of that exploration but they are open to the possibility.  The latter are the ones who carry humanity forward to expanded awareness and evolved consciousness.

Let us look at what this means in your daily life.  If you are someone who has a difficult time letting go of old patterns and beliefs, do you limit your contacts to those who will support your non-growth?  Are you still socializing with people who behave the way you did in high school even though their behavior often embarrasses you?  Are you staying in relationships that do not help you to grow because they are familiar, even if not comfortable?  Do you shut down when someone around you expresses an opinion that does not agree with yours?  And, when that happens, do you make the discussion a personal attack rather than a discussion of ideas, impersonally evaluated?

None of these choices supports you in your personal journey toward fulfillment in your life.  Why choose to stay ‘stuck’ when you have the option to grow into more Light?

The path of personal growth demands that each individual continually seek enlightenment, that is, a growing Light within that reflects expansion of consciousness.  Everything that happens is an opportunity to learn something that can expand your Inner Light.  Are you willing to seek that?  Are you willing to examine the ideas you hold, consciously or unconsciously, and determine if they are appropriate for you today?  Are you willing to grow rather than to stagnate?

You are always at a point of choice in your Life.  You can choose to continue to believe what you have always believed or you can change those beliefs.  You can choose to hold the same thoughts about yourself or you can change the thoughts you embrace.  And you can choose to look around you for the lessons in the present moment or you can shut down and move sightlessly through your moments.  The choice is always yours.

We hope you will choose to look for the Light in every situation, to look for the path of growth, and to be willing to expand your awareness to examine new ideas, new thoughts, new beliefs and to embrace the new beliefs if they resonate with your own Inner Light.

And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: Notice the Lessons

August 24, 2010 — Rosemary

Lessons.  Lessons. Lessons.  Did you ever wish for ‘recess in the School of Life’?

Sometimes the lessons seem to be piled on top of each other, and at other times they seem to be so indistinct that they are almost impossible to discern.  It can feel exhausting to constantly be looking for the lessons.

BUT this is what makes Life so exciting, so fulfilling.  Everything that happens has a lesson somewhere inside it.  Are things going smoothly?  What’s the lesson in that?  Is there a bird in the yard?  What kind of bird is it and what is the lesson in that?  Are you late or is someone late for a meeting with you?  What is the lesson in that?

If we are constantly looking for the lesson, even in the little things in life, then we are not falling into the doldrums or panicking or getting angry.  We are simply curious about what the lessons are.

My mastermind buddy, Cass, and I were on the phone recently talking about new directions for our businesses when Cass watched 2 baby deer be born right in front of her!  How exciting to have the privilege to watch these new lives come into the world!  My observation was that the Universe was telling us that our new directions bring new life into our businesses – this scene was confirmation of all the energy of newness.  We both enjoyed the sign.

Where can you look for confirmation that you are on the right track?  What about indications that you might want to consider another avenue today?  What does the current moment have as a gift for you?

Start noticing.  That’s all it takes.  Noticing.  Notice the person in front of you at Starbucks.  Our friend in Malibu just noticed that it was Kevin Spacey!  Notice the person at the cash register in the store while you are shopping.  They might need a smile or a kind word.  Notice what the messages in Nature are for you.  Deer?  Rabbits? Bears? Dogs? Cats?  Don’t worry about what the books say – what are these animals saying to you today?  Pause and listen to the voice of Nature to get a message.

Where does it feel as if your Power is residing in your body today?  This is another way to learn the lessons of the moment.  Take a moment to feel fully present in your body.  What do you notice?  Can you find a spot that holds your personal power right now?  If not, then where are you hiding it?

These are the kinds of questions that can guide you through a day.  Are you in an uncomfortable situation?  Find your personal power in your body and put your hand over it.  If you can’t find it, then put your hand over your solar plexus.  Are you feeling confused about what to do next?  Look around you, take a walk in Nature.  What are the signs, the signals with messages for you?

Your lessons are why you are awake and aware in this present moment.  Notice.

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Create the Life of your Life Purpose

August 23, 2010 — Rosemary
Dear Ones,

Every one of you has experienced hurt, elation, pain, joy, love, hatred, fun, ennui.  These are a part of the human experience.  Do you use these experiences to learn lessons or do you curse the darkness and forget to celebrate the Light?  How you respond to life’s experiences defines who you are as human being on a path toward greater consciousness.

Many people live in such great fear that they cannot see the Light when it appears all around them.  They are searching for the darkness, searching for that which they most dread, and it is as if they have blinders on, preventing them from seeing what is good and gentle and friendly in their environment.  It is very difficult to get these people to open up to the Light available to them because their vision is too narrow to embrace it.

There are others who allow Life to happen to them.  They are passively awaiting the next experience, wondering what will happen, planning to react but not making the effort to be proactive.  These people are suffering because they do not feel empowered to create their own life.  These are the ones who can be taught that they can take action to bring their Life into focus when they claim the power to do so.

Still others are vigorously fighting their own Life Purpose.  They are in denial about why they came to Planet Earth, who they incarnated to Be.  These people project onto others the lessons that are theirs to learn.  They work at their lives without finding any joy in daily activities.  They seem to run in the other direction from growth opportunities.  Some of these are so hardened that they deride others who are on a path of growth.  It is a difficult situation when one must deal with these people because they are negative in their perspective and they do not support the growth and progression of others if it interferes with their plans.

Those who are learning their lessons, who embrace the creative energy involved in making Life be a fulfilling collection of lessons, who seek to manifest their Life Purpose on Planet Earth, are the ones who can find joy even when Life looks darkest.  These are the ones who see other people as fellow journeyers, not as impediments to plans.  These people know how to smile from their hearts, and how to feel Love and to offer Love in their daily lives.

Which are you?  Do you recognize a part of yourself in these categories?  Do you see a past ‘you’ in one of them?

Looking for the lesson in your experience gives you the power to grow, the power to make the lesson the important aspect of this moment, not the circumstance.  Do you realize how powerful you can be when you can step up above a circumstance to see it in relation to a bigger picture?  This is how one learns the lessons contained in an experience.  Open yourself up to learning something from what is going on in the present moment, for Life is always about this present moment.  Worrying about tomorrow or yesterday drains your energy and takes you away from the lesson and the personal growth available in this present moment.

Allow yourself to focus on your growth, which supports your Life Purpose.  Allow this moment to be a gift for you, no matter what the circumstances are.  Are you ill?  What is the message in the illness for you?  Are you worried about finances?  How are you deciding that you lack support?  Are you feeling that things are going well for you in this moment?  What can you learn from that and who else can you help?

There is always a lesson for you.  Keep learning the lessons and you will keep growing.  Create your Life to be in consonance with your Life Purpose.  Be who you came to Planet Earth to Be.

And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: What’s your ‘Why’?

August 17, 2010 — Rosemary

I have never thought of the cave people as ‘artists’ but this message brings a new light to that word, doesn’t it?  Of course, I have seen cave paintings and petroglyphs but I hadn’t thought about the division of labor beginning back in the days of the cave dwellers.  I am intrigued by the idea that we each have talents and it helps society for us to determine what those talents are.  Self-examination as an aid to society as a whole.  Hmmmm…..

So where are your talents?  I can play the piano, a bit, but I’m not as good [by any measure!] as my friend, Cindy, who is a professional musician.  I can cook a decent meal but I’m not as good as my nephew, Jonathan, the chef.  Does comparing myself to others help anybody?  I don’t think so.

Each of us has a Life Purpose that defines the ‘why’ of our being here at this moment in the history of Planet Earth.  For some of the cave dwellers, they were the chroniclers of their people’s existence.  Maybe there was some elaborate communication going on and they were the ones who helped to educate the next group of people who came along.  What is your ‘why’?

Have you ever examined this question?  Have you asked yourself the ‘why’ and the ‘who’?  Or have you focused on the ‘what’ you came to Earth to DO?  I suspect that most of us have been answering this question since we were tiny tots – ‘What do you want to do when you grow up?’  Sometimes it’s couched as ‘What do you want to BE when you grow up?’ but isn’t that the same thing? A doctor.  A firefighter.  A vet.  A teacher.    But there’s a more important question to ask ourselves as adults – ‘WHO did I come here to BE?’

The way to answer that question is to look at some other questions.  ‘Why did I come to Earth at this time?’  is one of those questions.  ‘What are my talents and my dreams?’ is another one.  The important thing is to ASK questions of ourselves.  This is the most important aspect of living a Conscious Life.

When we slide through our days without questioning ourselves we do a disservice to all of society.  Think about the context of your Life.  You are alive on Planet Earth at the same moment as all of the others on Earth today have chosen to be here.  Each of you has a personal Life Purpose for your existence.  All of you have agreed to be here at the same time.  What if you chose not to search for your purpose?  What if you told all of the other people, billions of them, that you were not going to show up for your mission on Earth?  And how would you feel if someone told you that they were not going to fulfill their Life Purpose even though you are depending on them to do just that?

It’s interesting to ponder the web that humanity has woven by choosing to be contemporaries on Planet Earth.  Each person has a responsibility to be the someone that their Higher Self knows them to be.

The first step in living your Life Purpose is to discover what it is.  Do the self-examination that requires.  Ask for help if you need it.  There are many ways to uncover this but don’t let another week go by without doing some self-
examination.  Find out your personal ‘why.’  It could change your Life!

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Where do your talents lie?

August 16, 2010 — Rosemary
Dear Ones,

In the beginning of human history, people were struggling to exist.  Their days were spent in pursuit of food, shelter and protection from enemies.  There was not much energy or time left over for subtleties or leisure.  But they did create art.  The cavemen and women drew pictures to record what was happening in their lives and they used pictures to communicate with each other before language, spoken or written, was available to them.

These early humans adorned their bodies to show prowess or status or to attract a mate.  They appreciated that some of their people had more artistic talent than others and thus duties were assigned based on innate talents and interests.  People started to create a division of labor so that a band of people could exist in a more organized and more successful manner.

If you fast forward to the 21st Century, what do you find?  People find themselves being forced into jobs with duties that may or may not align with their talents and interests.  People are busy making money to buy necessities and entertainment and spend their energy so that they have little time for creative pursuits.  Some people have not taken the time to determine where their talents lie because they have spent all their time and energy pursuing either work or pleasure as defined by society, peers and advertizing.

We wish that more people would take the time to examine their lives, to examine their inner being and to determine where their innate talents lie, what their Life Purpose is and who they incarnated on Planet Earth to be.  This kind of self-examination requires some time and dedication to perform.  It also requires that one care about the results.  Many people today are locked in a flow that does not permit time or energy to ask the questions that need to be asked.

We are not talking about those people who are working many jobs just to obtain shelter and food and the necessities of life for their families, for they are doing the best they can.  But there are many others who, if awakened to possibilities, could do this self-examination and who would then have more self-empowerment and, ultimately, more life success.  Who are these people?  And are you one of them?  Every person can lead a conscious life by examining who they are and who they were born to be.

Self-examination is not the scary thing that some make it out to be.  This is not taking a test and worrying about failing.  Indeed, failing to do the self-examination we are talking about creates a limited life – why choose that?  The first question to ask is, ‘What is my Life Purpose?  Who did I come to Planet Earth to BE?’  Sometimes you might need help in pursuing these answers but asking the question is the first step.

Once you have an idea of your true Life Purpose you must then ask yourself where your talents lie, where your dreams are pointing.  No one comes to Earth with a Life Purpose of being unhappy.  Many find that unhappiness is a part of life for a specific time, but it is not your Purpose in being born.  If you are unhappy, could it be that you are not living your Life Purpose?  We are not talking about your job or your career, but the real essence of your being incarnate on Planet Earth in this moment.  Are your choices in Life consistent with realizing your Life Purpose?

Your job or career might be the vehicle that allows you to pursue your Life Purpose but we are asking you to examine your Life so that you can make a conscious choice about what you are doing and who you are being.  The cave people were busy searching for food and shelter but they did look at who was the best at which tasks and they made decisions based on those talents.  Think about your Life and whether or not you are utilizing your talents.  Be the creative person that every human being incarnates to be.  You don’t have to paint cave pictures, or pictures of any kind, but if your creative talents lie in problem solving, then make sure you are using those talents.  If your creative talents are in raising children, or teaching others, or writing or painting or sculpting or programming computers, then use those talents.  Even if, for the moment, the job you are engaged in is merely a means to pay your bills, don’t allow it to swallow up your Life and your energy and your time.  Create your Life.

Follow your talents, and, if appropriate, paint the walls with pictures that tell others about your Life.

And so it is.

MUSE-INGS: Find Your Magic

August 10, 2010 — Rosemary

Magic and Empowerment.  Interesting words to put together.

I love the word ‘magic’ because it conjures up [pun intended] all kinds of possibilities that are beyond the so-called normal realm.  As a little girl I lived in fairy tales with all sorts of magical things happening.  Of course, I also saw things that I now realize not everyone else was seeing.  Are all of our children seeing magic everywhere in their lives but having the magic shut down or blocked out of their vision?

Maybe life in the 21st Century has become so focused on reality that we forget to notice the magic in the reality around us.  We just watched the movie ‘Inception’ and the complexity of that dream world was fascinating.  Dream levels within levels within levels.  What’s real?  What is the dream?  Can the dream become real?  What great questions to ask ourselves!

If we, as a society, join in a collective dream, do we not manifest that as reality?  If we, collectively, agree that something is so, do we not project that belief into the world around us until reality is shaped by that belief?  Believing is Seeing.  In order to see something, we must first believe it to be visible.  Many scientific studies have shown that those who have been trained to see or not see something will manifest their belief in the world around them, even if ‘reality’ does not actually reflect that belief.  An ophthalmologist once told me that if an adult is given a pair of glasses that reverse what is seen to create an upside down image, that person’s brain will learn to reverse the image to make it upright within 3 days of wearing the glasses.  In a photography class, I learned that paper that appears white to our eyes is actually reflecting the light around it, such as green in fluorescent lighting or yellow in incandescent, but our brains translate the brightest paper into the white color we expect to see.  The camera doesn’t have this translator and takes a picture of green or yellow paper!

So how important is it that we check our belief systems periodically so that we can assess our reality?  Are we believing what we want to see?  Are we SEEING what we want to see or, if not, have we checked what we are believing about our reality?

As you go through your days this week, ask yourself what your reality is telling you about your belief system.  Look at yourself as the magician creating the illusions around you.  Then look at what you have created and ask if you feel empowered by that.  Let yourself move into your own power by practicing magic in little areas of your life, especially if you need to take baby steps.  Give yourself permission to play in your days.  Let yourself move into a feeling of personal empowerment by assessing your beliefs.  When I work with private clients, this is the first place we need to work, because sometimes our beliefs have been planted by others or were adopted by our younger selves and no longer have a place in our reality.  Sometimes we have let someone take away our magic.

My blessing to you this week is that you find your magic!  I trust that it is there for you to find!

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Pay attention to the magic!

August 9, 2010 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

Where is the magic in your life today?  Are you aware of magic at work around you all the time?  Or do you think of magic as something that a magician does in a show to fool your eyes?

When we speak of ‘magic’ here we mean the unexplainable that happens in your life with wondrous results.  A person you haven’t seen in a long time comes to mind and shortly thereafter you see them or receive a phone call from them.  You need to buy a pair of shoes and when you get to the store the exact shoes you were looking for appear and are on sale.  You need a doctor and your friend brings up the name of a specialist she thinks is an excellent doctor.  The list of possibilities goes on and on.

But do you think of these as ‘magic’ or do you still believe in coincidence?

Magic happens in your life because you project outward into the Universal Consciousness a thought that forms a picture that has an energy attached to it that creates magnetism.  This chain, from your thought to the magnetic energy associated with it, is the real magician in your life.  This process is at work in your life whether you are conscious of it or not.  How many times have you said, ‘See?  I told you this wouldn’t work out [or that bad thing would happen or I wouldn’t get what I wanted]!’  When you worried about something or thought that you wouldn’t get what you wanted you energized that picture of problems or lack and that is what materialized.

The Universe is not a magician trying to fool your eyes with complex tricks to make you feel bad.  The Universe is, instead, a kind and generous place, working to fulfill the requests that you energize from a place of purity, compassion [for self and others], and a desire for the highest good of all.  When you are focused on these things, you have much magic at your disposal.

So how will you use your powers of magic from this day forward?  Do you think you can separate yourself from greed and personal desires and lift your thoughts into the space of what is good for all?  Wanting something for yourself is not necessarily greed in a negative sense, but wanting something that is not in your highest good or in the highest good of all around you does not bring you the happiness that you are seeking.  Beware of the insidious nature of greed, for it manifests in cloaked ways, masquerading as being for the good of all.

For example, there are those who seek much money with the claim that ‘someday’ they will do something philanthropic with their millions.  They sound like compassionate souls but that ‘someday’ is not energizing the magic that comes into the life of someone who, without the millions today, is still helping the less fortunate.  Greed for power over others is damaging to the greedy person as well as the people who become subjugated to that greed.  It might not look like ‘greed’ as you would expect but condescension, arrogance, a ‘me first’ attitude, are all examples of greed for power over others.  This energetic does not create real magic.

We are not saying that there is anything wrong with money or power, per se.  They are both words that describe energies in the human world.  What one does with money, how one relates to money and how much power over the decisions of one’s life that money has – these are what define the energy of money.  Power, within oneself, becomes empowerment to fulfill one’s Soul Purpose on Planet Earth.  However, when one wishes to exert power over another, one is attempting to take away that other’s personal empowerment and replace it with complacence and submission to someone else’s will.  This destroys the magic in both people’s lives.

Strive to use magic in your own life as a way to make all of Life around you be a glorious expression of the power inherent in human beings to bring Light into the world.  Focus on the ways that you can feel more empowered in your life, even if at times it seems that your power has slipped away.  Find a single area in which you feel empowered and focus on that area.  Then notice other areas where magic has occurred and notice how empowering that can be.

Pay attention to the magic in your life and you will start to feel empowered in all areas.  The magic is there for you to find!

And so it is.
