What’s Hiding in Plain Sight? – Richard’s Commentary

September 19, 2013 — Richard

Rosemary’s messages always contain truth for me. And they often challenge me to go deeper, to examine, to look for the hidden message, often staring directly at me when I “have the eyes to see.”

Tonight as I write this I am spending it in my family farmhouse in Wisconsin. I’m not sleeping in my old room but in the guest room just adjacent to that room I spent hours in and dreamed my boyhood dreams. And with every experience on this visit, I am looking deeply for the lessons.

I am particularly struck tonight by these words from Rosemary: “Sometimes people think they are missing something, or broken and need to be fixed.  Sometimes they feel they are not complete and are looking for someone/something to complete them.” I’ve often felt that I left part of me in Wisconsin when I moved away more than 40 years ago. I first left “home” right after graduating from the University of Wisconsin; I traveled to Ethiopia as a Peace Corps volunteer and stayed away for two years. I returned “home” for a couple of years but then left for good in 1972.

Of course there were many visits back “home” while my parents were alive. I now have two brothers who still live here on the family farm; I’m staying with my middle brother on this visit. And here’s what I have found: this is not my “home” and I can find no piece, not even the smallest piece of me here anymore. Does this mean I’ve grown up? Well, many would say I’ll never grow up; but perhaps I’ve finally, after all these years, found my true home. It was hiding all this time in plain sight!

This does not mean I no longer have a part of a Wisconsin farm in my heart. It does not mean the memories of growing up wild and free and at home on this then sprawling dairy farm are gone and forgotten. What it does mean is my home is inside me. It’s not a place, nor a time, not even relationships. It’s a beingness that was, is and always will be there as an integral part of who I am. It’s a home I can experience anywhere and any time. It’s always with me, right there in front of my eyes.

And this confirms another piece of Rosemary’s article. She wrote: “You are complete RIGHT NOW!!!  You don’t need to be fixed or completed.  Everything you NEED is inside you now.” My home is inside me right now; all of it. I don’t have a piece in Wisconsin, a piece in Colorado and a piece in Maryland. It’s right here.

This gets at wholeness. Home is only one part of that wholeness. Relationships are another part and that begins with the relationship we have with ourselves. Can we find the home inside if we never visit there? If we avoid an inner examination of who we really are, can we find any form of completeness? If we don’t have a good relationship with ourselves we may never find home!

It’s taken me 68 years to come “home” and discover I’ve been home for all of those 68 years! Do you know where your home is? Can you come home again?

MUSE-INGS: Going ‘Home’!

May 25, 2010 — Rosemary

I know the feeling of being ‘home’ when I step onto the Big Island of Hawaii.  Every time, and I’ve been there often, it creates such a feeling of peace just to touch the Earth there.  I’ve had some amazing spiritual experiences in the Hawaiian Islands and have loved being there, even the week that was rainy from start to finish. I probably learned the most spiritual lessons that week! And every visit since then has held even greater learnings for me.

But lately I’ve been feeling drawn to the West Coast of America, and that’s a bit of a surprise to me.  Having spent most of my life in the DC area, I never thought I’d consider living near LA but that’s on the radar screen.  So why is this coming up at this time in my life?  Am I supposed to move there immediately?  What about this house in Colorado where we live now?

Have you ever felt drawn to move or to travel or to be somewhere other than where you are in a given moment?  I think Mother Earth is calling each of us to be in the spot where she can support us more fully as we go through the coming changes.  It might be near to where we currently live or it might be thousands of miles away.  We might even need to split our time between 2 homes to tap into different Earth energy depending on the time of year and our activities.  I once felt an overwhelming urge to visit Hawaii and a week later we were on a plane!  That was the trip where we met a Kahuna and had some wonderful experiences.

Where are you feeling that you should visit?  Or do you feel that you are nearing the time to make a move?  Is some external event or person causing you to change where you live?  This is all wonderful, even if the circumstances don’t FEEL wonderful at the moment!  You are receiving guidance from the Universe about your next move.  You are being led to the next home, the place where Mother Earth can cradle you in her arms and nurture you with her loving energy.  Whether the cause of the move is economic, emotional or expedient doesn’t matter.  Trust that you are being helped to the place where you need to be for the time being.

There are no accidents.  Whatever is happening to indicate that you need to be somewhere on Mother Earth other than exactly where you are now is a sign that you are on the spiritual path of personal growth.  And if you feel perfectly content in the exact spot where you now are, then you can relax and enjoy the connection and the nurturing/nourishing energy that comes from the Mother.  Where are you planning  to visit on your next trip?   Do you have a feeling that maybe you should go somewhere soon?  Maybe the time isn’t right yet but you feel that the time is coming.  In that case, you might want to get a picture of the place to which you feel drawn and post it on your vision board, or above your desk, so that you can send a message to Mother Earth letting her know that you hear her call and that you agree to follow that call when the time is right.

Get ready to pack your bags!  Whether moving your home or visiting somewhere else, Mother Earth will support you wherever you go!

THIS WEEK’S MYSTIC MESSAGE from The Divine Feminine: Are you feeling at home?

May 24, 2010 — Rosemary

Dear Ones,

Where in the world of Planet Earth do you consider your ‘home’?  Have you thought about having a ‘home’ that has nothing to do with the house in which you live?  We would tell you that ‘home’ is a word describing where your connection to Mother Earth is felt the strongest.

Many people think that home is where their job is, or even where their family of origin lives or originated.  But this is a limited understanding of ‘home.’  Your job and your family do not define you – your Life Purpose, the reason you incarnated on Planet Earth in a human body – this defines you.  You came to the Planet to be the person that you are at your core and that person lives in a resonance with many places on Planet Earth.  But at any single time, there is a single place on  Earth that is your spiritual home.  This is the place that feeds your spirit, that energizes you and uplifts you and helps you to sort through confusion.  For some of you this place is near or within the home/house in which you currently dwell.  For others, it might be a place that you visit on holiday, or that you remember fondly from a previous experience.  Some of you might not have found yet a place on Earth that feeds your spirit in this way.

Finding and connecting with your ‘home on Earth’ is an important action for you to take during your lifetime.  This quest begins with questioning yourself about how fulfilling you feel your present life is.  If you feel that there is something missing, if you are always busy but not accomplishing that which you desire to accomplish, if you are feeling unhappy but the outward signals indicate that you ‘should’ feel happy, then perhaps you are not yet connected with your ‘home on Earth.’  Have you ever felt that connection?  Have you ever felt so at peace in a certain location that you really didn’t want to leave it?  This is how it feels when you are connected to your spiritual home on Earth.

Now you might have had this experience often, especially when you are relaxed on vacation or visiting an exotic locale.  We are not saying that there is only one place on Earth that is your home for your whole lifetime.  You might find that at different times different places on Earth resonate with you.  There might be many such locations, and you do not necessarily have to live permanently at one of these.  But for you to feel your strongest connection to Mother Earth, you must visit the place that you determine to be your spiritual home at a given time.

Can you name that place right now?  Do you know where you would go if tomorrow you were given an airplane ticket to Your Spiritual Home on Earth and told to get there quickly?  Whatever your answer to that is implies whether or not you have yet connected.  You might even know innately where that place is without having previously visited there.  And the place that seems to call you today might not be the same place that last year or 10 years ago was the place that seemed to be your spiritual home, for you have been growing and expanding your awareness over time and your need for Earth connection can change.

Many people think of India or Hawaii as the most spiritual places on Earth, and they certainly hold that kind of energy.  But did you know that YOUR strongest connection to Mother Earth might call you to Boise, Idaho or London, England or Miami, Florida?  It is not just those locations that look like spiritual places that call a human being to them.  There are many other factors, including the Earth energies in different places.  Some people can feel an energy vortex in Sedona, Arizona for example and others feel peaceful floating in a boat on the waters of Alaska.  Some feel the power of a huge waterfall while others need to be within the sight of the Rocky Mountains.

What is important is that each individual find the place on Earth at this time that feeds their spirit, that nourishes them with the energies of Mother Earth, and that they find time to visit that location and allow their physical bodies to absorb the energy of their ‘home.’  It is also important to remove yourself from a spot that feels as if it drains your energy.  Are you living somewhere that does not support you?  Are you longing to visit or live somewhere else?  Pay attention to those feelings.

Not only might you find that connecting to Mother Earth’s special energy for you gives you motivation to take action in your life but you also might find that your Life, your Relationships and your Business/Career/Work will be energized because they are supported in additional ways.

And maybe you just need to relax at the most relaxing spot on the Earth that calls to you today!

And so it is.
