Sharing Photos from Mt Shasta

On Sundays my mother will break the law and speed to McDonald's to have pancakes with her friends. Then she and my Dad come home and share the Lord's supper together.

What does your mother do? Or what did your mother do that sticks out in your mind?

MAY 2013

The theme for May is MANIFESTING.

This is a very powerful month and you would be wise to use it well. The theme of manifesting brings up many areas to work on. There is plenty of material around this theme for growth, change, elimination, study, breakthrough, expansion, balance and alignment. It continues to be a creative time with lots of opportunities for beginnings and endings but the main focus that will give you the most for your efforts is the study and understanding of what MANIFESTING is all about. So treat this month as a daily workshop on manifesting and set an intention that you will end this month with a greater understanding and ability to manifest. Insert the intention for magic and miracles whenever possible as this is a good month for both magic and miracles.

This will require exploring your current beliefs about how everything in your life becomes manifest and understanding it in such a way that you become empowered with the ability to be more conscious about how you manifest your life. This understanding is crucial at this time as we are in the window of eclipses (there are two this month and there was one in April) providing us with great power and opportunity and offering us a portal for changing what we believe about our ability to have what we want.

In recent years there has been much study and a greater understanding of the quantum field, the energy that holds all possibilities, and how to access it to change certain trajectories and cycles that seem to run our lives. For most of us it still remains a deep mystery and we are always trying to understand the mechanics of how and why we manifest what we do.

Why do some people seem to manifest great financial prosperity and others struggle their whole lives with a deep poverty consciousness?

Why do some people manifest good relationships that others only yearn for?

Why do some people manifest nothing but misfortune with every decision?

You could blame the differences on astrology, poor imprinting, your parents, karma, and the actions and choices of others, all valid considerations. However the patterns created by these influences can be worked with in a positive way. They can be changed as long as you can extricate yourself from the lineage of low havingness and the icons you have bought into over your lifetime. (Suggested audio "The Family Icon") Icons are strong and they go beyond the family and can include collective experiences such as the Great Depression or the Holocaust or a great Famine or a significant War. We are all made up of an intricate set of patterns and to understand how the patterns are linked is to begin to understand what and how we manifest.

Some people manifest wonderful things for their business and work and are terrible at manifesting right relationship. Others have all the love and support of community and friends and loved ones but no money. And others still have great amounts of money and support and even good relationships but very poor health.

So what is that all about?

There are different lessons for each of us about what and how we manifest. The way that our belief systems are linked up has everything to do with what we end up creating for ourselves. For example, as a child if you witnessed a family member that put financial success over and above quality relationships with the family and there was conflict and resentment about that, you may have made a subconscious decision that love and financial success do not mix. Therefore subconsciously you would choose one and eliminate the other.

If you witnessed or experienced that lots of love and passion and attention in your family somehow created emotional conflict or that what one parent manifested caused the other one to have negative emotions, you may make a subconscious choice not to manifest love and passion in your life.

In the same way, if you witnessed or experienced as a child that the only time you could manifest love and caring attention to your body was to be in poor health, then your belief about having caring and attention for yourself would require manifesting poor health throughout your whole life.

All of us have made strong subconscious decisions early in life to separate ourselves from what we saw or experienced that we did not like. So there is a built in block to manifesting anything that is linked to a negative experience. The examination of self and what makes us who we are is key to changing our relationship to the way we manifest.

The value of what you manifest is related to the value you have for yourself. Not the value that someone else places on you but what you place on yourself. There is an erroneous notion that manifesting requires something from the outside, some element outside of us that comes in and makes it happen. Although support is necessary, it is our own energy field that draws towards it the elements around our intentions and turns them into manifestations. Your intention and thoughts and beliefs are the ones that attract the material that creates your life. So it is important that you examine your beliefs about what you think you need from somewhere else in order to manifest, and your expectations of that happening.

Understanding how intentions work is another aspect of understanding manifesting. If you set an intention and are clear and committed and certain about that intention without a doubt, send it into the quantum field and send it from your heart. The worst thing you can do is then to begin to worry about that intention not manifesting. Because, guess what? You will confuse the quantum field, which will then feed the worry and take its direction from your worry that the intention will NOT manifest. All the energy will go into NOT manifesting that intention. It is a true discipline to set our intentions free without worry or micromanaging them, and it would be so much simpler if we could all just energetically lobotomize our minds. This is a great month to work on this discipline of clarifying our intentions; committing 100% to them and then letting them go without another thought or worry.

There is also an erroneous belief that in order to manifest something you must "go after it". Although there always needs to be a balance between being and doing, giving and receiving, there is way too much emphasis on going after what you want. Once you set your intention, you need to let it go and then relax, take action as appropriate timing dictates, but let it come to you as you magnetize your desire, and refrain from worry or obsession. It will only get in the way.

The scarcity complex

The scarcity complex is the definition and belief that there is a finite amount of energy, money, health, relationship, love etc. to go around and if you have an abundance of it, it means someone else goes without. Or if someone else has what you believe to be more than their share, then you go without. Where did that come from? Wherever it came from, it needs to go the way of all old patterns that no longer serve.

The truth is there is an infinite amount of source and it is only your attachment to something you manifested because you believe it is the best you can do and you fear losing it and ending up with nothing that keeps perpetrating that belief. If you believe it, it will be so. The challenge here is to stretch outside of that box and begin to experience the infinite possibilities of infinite source.

We all need support but many of us look for and expect support from the wrong people and the wrong places. Anyone who has a limited view of manifesting and a strong mind set about who you are, what you are capable of, what you should have or not have, is not a good prospect for support. Support yourself first. Build a strong inner relationship within yourself first. Work on your own beliefs and intentions. Then see who or what shows up to support that. You may be surprised. They probably won't be the ones who are closest to you.

Remember to work with the concept of magic and miracles and all possibilities.

The opportunity this month is to truly shift your understanding and experience of manifesting in a very positive way.

The challenge will be dealing with all the doubt, negative thoughts and whatever else comes up around this issue of what and how you manifest. Remember that when stuff comes up and you are facing some of your "not-so-fun" manifestations, that you have the power to change, transform, eliminate and shift. Remember magic and miracles.

How the month shows up:

YOU PERSONALLY

This is a great opportunity to work through any and all issues around manifesting. You will need discipline to examine neutrally where you are currently in your life, what old patterns run you, where they came from, how you identify with or against them and to shift your beliefs about your own value and what you can have. Because of the personal nature of the work, it will be important that you honor your boundaries and stay away from the entanglements of brought on by what other people think you should be or do. Remember that manifesting should not "need" anything from the outside except the appropriate support. So this is the month where you can also examine your support and be more discerning about where it comes from.

Evaluate what you are currently manifesting in all areas; financial, relationship, community, environment, physical support, health, energy, enthusiasm, right work, enough play and rest, inspiration etc. What needs work? Where are you lacking the right kind of support? What are your expectations? Are they appropriate? You may not get all the answers in a neat little package but if you set the intention to do the work, it will start things moving in the right direction.

RELATIONSHIPS

What are you manifesting? Is it good? If not, examine your relationship with yourself. What are you manifesting there? Criticism? Judgment? Poor health? Lack? Irritation? Lethargy? Do you feel connected to your essence? Do you expect someone else to fix it?

Start there and then move on to your relationships with others. What are you magnetizing? If you feel a lack of understanding and support, you are probably experiencing the same thing in your relationship with self. Do you take care of yourself? When was the last time you thanked yourself and your body for being there for you? For some of you, this month will be all about rebooting your relationship with self. If you focus there, manifesting better relationships with others will automatically follow.

THE ENVIRONMENT

What kind of environment have you manifested for yourself to live in, to work in, to play in, and to rest in? Is it satisfactory? What do you think you deserve and what do you believe you have to put up with as a compromise to some situation or to "pay your dues"? What have you manifested in this life in terms of your environment? Is it cluttered or full of low frequency stuff? We are focusing on your personal environment as the place to start. Once you get an understanding of manifesting what you want in your personal environment you can move to the greater environment and participate in manifesting a better community and global environment.
Begin to look around and to see the whole environment as a manifestation of a collective set of patterns and beliefs. If you can shift the way you experience the environment as a co-creator and not a victim of it, you will gain a greater understanding in how you can participate in manifesting what we all desire.

HEALTH AND THE PHYSICAL BODY

What you manifest is what you experience. The body will definitely speak to you this month and you will get to see exactly what you have manifested for yourself. The good news is that you can change it. Remember magic and miracles. Your body is perhaps the best barometer for where you are in any process, as the body will get your attention the fastest and the most powerfully. How can you support your body this month? How can you be more responsible? You have to really own your 100% responsibility for your body before you can manifest exactly what you want in relation to your body.

As you work with this concept of responsibility, your body may go through lots of mood swings as the challenges of doubt and deserveability come up for examination. Remember that you are the architect of your life and whatever has manifest is entirely of your own creation.

FINANCE, PROJECTS, PARTNERSHIPS, BUSINESS

This is perhaps the best area this month to make progress you can track. Because of icons, old patterns, conflicting belief systems and lack of personal value and deserveability, the area of manifesting success in work and finances is a favorite study for most of us. Pick something this month and work on it. Do you believe in the scarcity complex? Do you routinely manifest a lack of support? Do you believe in your talents and skills or do you wait for someone to take pity on you? You can do a lot of work in this area this month. Follow the threads of your beliefs to the roots and make changes. Practice setting your intentions in a clear and committed way and then release them without worry. Practice magnetizing the right people for partnerships, and allow the right timing to dictate your actions.
The opportunities for manifesting are truly amazing this month.

DATES AND TIME FRAMES

May 1-8: Evaluate what you have manifested so far in your life. Coming from the place of gratitude, decide what needs to change. Once you set your intention, watch for things to come up that try and derail you from this new position you are taking of increasing your ability to manifest.

Pay attention to when you are overdoing, overworrying, over attached to the outcome and overthinking everything. This is a time that will show you what is out of balance and where you are out of balance. Set boundaries against the doubting mind that tries to tell you it's not possible to have magic and miracles.

May 9: New Moon and Solar Eclipse is at 6:29 PM Mountain Daylight Time. This is the second eclipse out of three and makes for a powerful time of setting intentions. A New Moon is always a good time to come to a still point and reset anything that is not working. So take some time to evaluate what you have manifested in your life that is no longer a welcome situation. Use the new moon time to make a commitment to change it and set some intentions in that direction.

May 9-16: This is a time of fallout and doubt as well as energy gathering momentum and moving forward in spurts and bursts. Be careful that the spurts and bursts are moving things in a positive direction. You may feel slightly overwhelmed and even chaotic as the new intentions and focus on manifesting meets old patterns that surface from the deep subconscious. If you have a strong emotion about something, the next minute that could change and you could feel differently.

The best way to navigate this time is to be very flexible and not to make decisions based on what other people think. Follow your heart especially in your intention to manifest.

May 17-23: This could be an intense and wonderful time of breakthrough and change. The change could be sudden and permanent. Intend for magic and miracles to happen during this time. Harness the power of this time for your manifestations. Be clear about what you want. Boundaries may be important as other people' strong intentions encroach upon your turf. Collaborations and support containers can empower as long as everyone is on the same page.
May 24: Full Moon with a Lunar Eclipse is at 10:26 PM Mountain Daylight Time. This is the third eclipse and bookend to this powerful and transformative time. It is difficult to predict what the fallout may be from what has been stirred up during this month but you can expect some big energy to be moving around. The potency of this time could trigger security issues, judgment and doubt. Hopefully you will have had synchronicity and signs during the month that will keep you focused positively on your newfound abilities to manifest. This full moon is a time to recommit to what you know in your heart to be true about what you want to manifest.

May 24-31: This is a higher centered time of enjoying the fruits of your discipline and anchoring the lessons around manifesting. If you have worked with the energy of the month and stayed out of doubt, you can expect magic and miracles to manifest during this time. Even if things are looking on the outside like they are falling apart in your life or you feel pressured and confused by responsibilities or the rapid pace of what is coming into your life, you can still take a breath and have great gratitude for the movement and the manifestation.
The best medicine is to be in delight about the beautiful things you are manifesting in your life and to be in humor about the not so welcome things you still seem to be attracting. Remember it is all a process and some of what you put into motion this month may take several more to manifest.

Have a great month and have fun!

Blessings,

Lena Stevens

How Do We Change the World?
received by Ashalyn from God the Father
April 22, 2013 – Earth Day

I [Ashalyn] woke up this morning with words in my head that I knew I must write down. After I wrote the first few lines, I asked who was speaking to me and was told, “God the Father.” Here is the message.

It’s about remembering, not believing the words of others. We’re all doing our best to work our way through the “veils of forgetfulness” that are around us. We already know all that we need to know. We already know that we are one with all things. We are also one with All That Is. These are times of remembering and becoming the magnificent beings that we already are.

Each one of us has great talents and skills that we are to share with the world around us. Each one of us is unique. No one expresses life in the exact same way that we do. Each person is extremely valuable and needs to be allowed to be the creative, innovative person that we all can be if we are living under the right circumstances. These circumstances include the values of love, respect, freedom and an enthusiasm for life.

Why are not all people living under those circumstances right now? Because, we have been programmed to live in fear. Trust is something that is given to very few people, including ourselves. Once you cannot trust yourself, how can you possibly trust another? Then the world falls apart and becomes a scary place where we hide our true self from others because, “It’s not safe to be the real you.”

“Oh, my God,” we hear others say, “what has this world come to? Why is there so much hatred and anger, so many “blind” people who can’t see the truth even when it is placed right before them? Where have all the beautiful people gone? Why have we allowed this to happen? How much longer can this go on? Why have our leaders caved in to the pressure of those who have only anger in their hearts? Where have the “pure of heart” gone? How can we possibly change this situation? Is there any hope? Where is that Saviour when we really need him? Is this all a big lie; a joke, an illusion? What in the world am I doing here and how can I get out? How much longer do I have to wait until sanity returns?”

These are all good questions and pleas for assistance that I hear often. I must say – before you all give up and throw away the chance of a life time – that it is truly up to you. You are the only ones who can make this change. You are the ones that are here to answer those questions. You are the actors in this grand play. You are writing the script, editing it, performing it and presenting it to each other for approval and continued participation. If any of you are still sitting on the couch and waiting for the world to be “fixed” before you will move forward with your life, then you are part of the problem.

Inaction creates decay. Decay includes depression, anger, sadness, fear – all the words that create helplessness and feeling that there’s nothing that you can do. Once you are lost in helplessness, you become a part of the burden. You are the ones who make forward movement more difficult because you are dragging your feet as you are locked into fear and denial. That is not a good place to be. Once there, your creativity and innovation have no place to go. They have been shut off, damned up and just plain denied. Then you begin thinking thoughts like, “I am not worthy / lovable / creative enough to get what I want.. What difference can I make? ‘They’ won’t let me do what I want.” And, do you know what happens then? You strike back at each other, or even worse, you injure yourself!

What am I to do with all these unruly children? Now it’s my turn to ask questions. “When will you learn to stand on your own two feet? How much longer will you continue to destroy the world around you? When will you finally realize that you have the power to change? How many more people need to be killed before you will realize how precious life is? Who taught you to put yourself first and ignore the needs of your neighbor? Why has God become a bad person in so many people’s eyes? Why do you blame all this on me?”

“How can God allow this to Happen,” you all ask? And, “If there was a God in heaven, this would not be happening.”

Well, I say unto you, my lost forgetful children, that it is indeed you who have created this difficult state of affairs, not me. Long, long ago, when I was planning this grand state of affairs, I decided to give you free will, which would allow you to make your own decisions and be as creative as you could possibly be. One cannot “live fully” under the dictates of another – a lesson that many of you have learned time and time again. So I gave you freedom – the right to make your own choices.

Was I wrong in doing that? I don’t think so. Those who have chosen to walk the path of freedom and creativity are the ones who are making a difference at this time. They are the ones who are gathering together to form new alliances, to feed those who are hungry, to make sense out of antiquated laws and ways of being. These are the “movers and the shakers” (as you love to call them) who have the strength and the courage to move forward with great conviction. They make change – with the highest good of all mankind as their guide post.

Change is possible. Change is inevitable. Change is the only thing that will move you out of all those “stuck places” that keep you bound, gagged and helpless. So what do you have to do in order to become a part of that change? For indeed that is the only way to free yourselves once again.

Take the time to make wise decisions. You cannot afford to make a bigger mess by moving forward with anger and disgust. Take that blindfold off your eyes so that you can see what is really going on. Living a lie no longer works for you – as if it ever did. Solving problems with angry words, insults and weapons of destruction has always been inadequate in resolving conflict. Sincere communication, seeing through another’s eyes, walking a moment in the other person’s shoes – now those are the keys to true resolution of differences.

And speaking of differences, it’s time for you all to realize that you are no different than anyone else who is walking in human form at this time. You all have the same needs. You all have the same desire for peace, love and respect, no matter what part of the world you may find yourself in. You all breathe the same air, walk on the same planet, dream similar dreams and have the same heart beating inside you, every second of every day. You are brothers and sisters walking the same walk, talking the same talk and hoping for peace to arrive, sooner than later.

I marvel at all the magnificent things you have created. I marvel at how wondrous you all can be when you are walking tall in your power and loving all those around you. I have seen this in you from the very beginning when you were still ideas formulating in that ever-creative, unstoppable point of being that is me. I am constant action, guided by pure love, directed by your requests and your insights, inspired by moments of jubilance, saddened by tragic events, moving always, in all ways, throughout time and non-time, supporting your dreams, holding your hands in moments of fear, and resuscitating those who are about to give up. I am All That Is, calling out once again for you to remember your beauty, remember your love, which is my love, which is our love and take those qualities and build upon them, for you are the master creators of this universe and beyond.

Take up your walking sticks and walk in peace – everywhere, always and for absolutely no reason at all – other than the fact that it simply feels good. Live life and love it and all will be well.

~ I am All That Is . . . as are you.

On wednesday morning I told him that I was going to ride the ferry into Seattle to do the radio show live from the Seattle studio. This is what he replied,

"Aren't you kind of heavy for a fairy to ride? I don't think her wings could do that."

Tonight he told me,

"I am going to marry 200 women."

I asked him,

"How will you take care of all those women?"

He said,

"They will all have jobs."

It is so good to see the Soul Spa back intact. Yay!

Way to go,

then what?

but if inside he is colorless, then what?"

"Life is glorious, but life is also wretched. It is both.
Appreciating the gloriousness inspires us, encourages us, cheers us up,
gives us a bigger perspective, energizes us. We feel connected.
But if that’s all that’s happening, we get arrogant and start to
look down on others, and there is a sense of making ourselves a big deal
and being really serious about it, wanting it to be like that forever.
The gloriousness becomes tinged by craving and addiction.

On the other hand, wretchedness–life’s painful aspect–softens us up considerably.

Knowing pain is a very important ingredient of being there for another person.
When you are feeling a lot of grief, you can look right into somebody’s eyes
because you feel you haven’t got anything to lose–you’re just there.
The wretchedness humbles us and softens us,
but if we were only wretched, we would all just go down the tubes.
We’d be so depressed, discouraged, and hopeless that
we wouldn’t have enough energy to eat an apple.
Gloriousness and wretchedness need each other.
One inspires us, the other softens us. They go together."

~ Pema Chodron
