Message for 2011

Aloha and Welcome to 2011!

There is a big shift happening on the
planet right now. This year holds within it the opening of a lot of
new space to realize more and more about what we are really on this
planet to do. This is going to be a year of amazing awakenings, as
each of us has the opportunity to fulfill who we really are. Let's

spend a few moments investigating some of what is available for us to
discover together this year.

Anyone notice a bit of a wiggly, jiggly start to 2011? A part of the
shift that is happening, and at great speeds, is the release of a
tremendous amount of old patterns and false rhythms that no longer
work. These patterns are being released from our spirits, our bodies
(subtle bodies included!) from society and from the planet itself.
Nothing and no one are immune! Some of these patterns are very big and
very old, so relax and know there is a pretty complex and
sophisticated divinity creating all of this. Know that you are being
considered and loved by a very nourishing universal intelligence.
Take a deep breath as we look at having understanding and trust in

what is happening across the world as we move into and move with 2011!

In 2011, each of us will come to a crossroad in which we have to make

some very vital choices. What commitments to growth and awakening are
in alignment with you? This is a year that will shake our

foundations. When our foundations are filled with light and truth,
when we are tuning into and enjoying the rhythms of life, it is going
to be VERY fulfilling. But how do we rebuild foundations that have
not been full of light? How do we learn to tune into the rhythms of
life versus the rhythms of a job, or friend or any other life
commitment we may have? It is going to be a very important year to
find this out and to learn how to recognize what is truly in alignment
with our own true selves. An important part of the formula is taking

the time to learn how to know our selves and how to rediscover
ourselves in any given moment. What happens if we have not taken the

time to discover our inner identity? Or if we think we know our inner

beingness, but we have mistaken something for us that is not? Let’s
explore that!

In looking at us each being able to grow and evolve with grace in the coming year, we need to consider both universal and personal rhythm.

If we remember that the whole universe is built on vibrational

formulas, much like music, then it becomes easier to pay attention to
the rhythms that are happening and work with them versus against them.
The adage about everything in its right time is very true. We must
each discover our personal rhythm so we can know who we are and what

we need to do here on Earth.

There is a structure in the universe that allows for everything and
everyone to have a right place, a path, room to move and to make
choices. There is also a divine intelligence that works in a rhythmic
pattern. At any given time, creative energy is being moved through

everything in wave-like patterns. Waves, as you know, can come in sets

or be very random. From big to small, to no waves at all, the trick is
how we move with the waves - or not. You might imagine surfing and
being on the board, or being dragged behind it, or anywhere between!
Good time to find your sense of humor!

The waves and rhythms that move the cosmos itself are always filtering

down into life on Earth. Each of us will have our own unique

experience of the way this flows into and through us. If we are open
and paying attention, then we are fed, freed and fulfilled by

receiving, and subsequently acting in accord with these universal wave
patterns. This is very simple, and yet life throws us many twists and

turns that can make it seem more complicated than that.

True Rhythm and False Rhythm:

We each have the opportunity in our lives to discover how to find the

true rhythms that allow us to fulfill our souls, though it can be

tricky as there are many false rhythms too. Some rhythms we learn

from society and some rhythms are how other people experience the flow
of life. Perhaps they think you should experience it that way too,
though it may not truly serve you at all. We each need to learn how
to separate these false rhythms that take us off our path, from the
true rhythms that allow us freedom. When creative energy gets moving

in the universe, each of us, depending on our life experience, our
energetic makeup and our own frequency, are going to read and

interpret these rhythms in a different way. You see, there can not be
a right way, there are simply many ways! This is what makes life so

interesting. It would be pretty boring if we all experienced the
universal flows in exactly the same way. Where would we be without
diversity? In order to be a whole society, we need for people to fit

into all different paths and callings and ways of life. What if

everyone wanted exactly the same thing out of their life experience?
Now that would be more confusing than all the variety! But what
happens if someone decides only one way is correct? Or only their way
is correct? Have you ever tried to alter your essence to fit someone
else's interpretation of timing, of life and creativity? Each of us
has gotten lost many times that way. This year it is time to focus our

energies on getting found!

Part of the journey here on Earth is to know ourselves. As we come to
a deeper appreciation of our own true self, dancing within the

movement of the universe can be the most exciting adventure going!

Knowing Ourselves:

The first time I heard the term "know thy self" I was 17. I was
swimming in an immensely beautiful river on Maui through a series of

lovely streams and waterfalls. I would swim through a pool and come
to a beautiful waterfall, climb up the waterfall and then swim through
the next pool and do it again. I was in a state of awe and reverence

at the immense divinity of this place. At the seventh pool there was a

fork in the river and hence there were two waterfalls to choose from.
I could not figure out which way to go as they both looked perfect,

neither was better or worse, so I froze there, baffled. I didn't know

what to do. I was overcome by an almost dizzy confusion which somehow
pushed me right into my center where it became clear that the only
thing to do was to ask the Great Spirit. I was not much in the habit

of doing that at the time, I wasn’t even sure if I would get an

answer. When I asked, a huge booming voice said "Know Thyself."

Needless to say, I was very startled. I found that I was filled with

a vast emptiness in relationship to this communication. I had no idea

what this had to do with the fork in the river (ho ho) and no clue

what this meant. Know thyself? Huh? I kept hoping I would hear more,
but I didn’t. I thought "is that all?" I had no idea yet that it was
more than enough! At the time, as I was stuck between two pools and

could not move, I decided this must be a symbol for my life, that I

had better commit myself to learning what on earth that big voice was
talking about. How often do each of us feel stuck between something
like those two pools?

Since then, I have discovered that I may never stop learning what

those two simple words, know thyself, mean. I have found the process

of learning to know myself may just be the first of the world’s

seven-wonders! (Perhaps they miscounted! There may be many more than
seven!) This all fits together when we understand that the true
rhythms of life help us learn to know ourselves by helping us discover
how we can best grow in each given moment. Having answers like

knowing which path to take at any given cross roads will allow us to
fulfill our soul’s purpose on earth.

Take a moment now and breathe deeply. Close your eyes and imagine a

light behind your eyes. Become aware of this light and say to it

"hello, I love you." What do you notice? Now relax and start to be

aware of the great movement of the Universe. Be aware that there is a

wave, a harmonic that is feeding and guiding you as if you were being
led by a lovely piece of music. What you can tune into right now is

very special. It is what is going on now, in present time, and it is
constantly changing. Take a moment and just allow yourself to
experience this. Do you see something, know something, or feel
something? You may find this very simple or very difficult as learning

to let ourselves do this with no effort is a process. Don’t worry

about that. You can learn tools that will help you to make this very

simple and very real if it isn't yet. For now, trust that your inner

being knows how to access the movement and the flow of what is going

on in the universe today! Take a deep breath and be aware of your body
now. Create an image of a huge golden sun above you, a sun full of

light, just like the sun in our solar system is full of light. Allow

this light to shine and flow into your body and fill you with warm

golden radiance. Know that you are very worthy of this experience and

that you are an important part of all that is!

Back to 2011:

We here on earth are all on a spiritual journey. In order to truly
have our journey, we must consciously commit to it and take
responsibility for our life and our experiences. You may have
questions about this piece, and if so, please ask them! As I mentioned

at the top, in 2011 the old inner patterns and the old inner

foundations that no longer serve us begin to break up and clear away.
Know that the process of dissolution can be quite uncomfortable, to
put it mildly, yet it is vital for this to occur so new structures
and creations can happen in ourselves, in our lives, our societies
and in our universe. Part of learning to have universal rhythm is to

be able to relax into the process of letting go of that which does not
work anymore. If we hold on, we may find ourselves feeling very

anxious. When we can let go, all that we have been asking for and

really been wanting has space to come to us!

Every day, the flow of life is changing. How may this affect you?
Well, you may wake up really energized after sleeping only a few

hours, or you may wake up exhausted after many hours of sleep. In
fact, there are thousands of different ways your body is going to
perceive, interpret and receive the patterns of life each day. It is
important for us to understand this so we do not fight it. Ever try to

do something and no matter what you do, it just won't work that day?
Often we take this personally. Please know that more often than not,
it is not personal at all, it is just how the energy is or is not
moving in all of creation on this particular day. How can you create

on a day of dissolution, how can you dissolve on a day of creating? If

you take it personally you may start trying to solve a problem you
don't have! This is an excellent way to make a mountain out of a
molehill!

When I was a child, I had a big challenge with many things that were

asked of me. The way these events and activities were set up was not
the way I heard the universe moving in me. This created conflict when
I was expected to match a rhythm that I could not resonate with, and
yet I was taught I was supposed to do exactly that. When has this

happened to you? How many times? There may be many, many layers of
these patterns and demands to be something you are not that have piled
up inside of you. When we have tuned into so much that really is not
us, we often feel we are being tossed on the sea and not ever catching
a wave. Or maybe you catch waves, but it is random and you want to
experience a greater consistency. Are you ready to let go of the old

patterns this year? Do you need some support, some tools, and want to

have some fun as you do this? You truly can learn to clear from your

body and your energy bodies the rhythms, stuck patterns, blocks and

mental images of reality that have been stored within you that stop or
alter the flow of true self awareness in the present moment! This is
indeed a joyous thing.

Do you want to hold within you the wave patterns that will feed you
and work for you each day? Do you get excited about getting into your
body and learning to ride the waves of the universe, to really be in
the moment and navigate reality as it is blossoming forth from the
source of all? When you can do these things, you will find it is very
simple to attract into your life the situations, the work, the
relationships, etc. that match your soul’s true essence. When you do
that, you will experience well being and feel pretty fulfilled.

Be aware that the soul is on a journey in which learning is an
important facility. Education is a great concept! It comes from a
Greek word that actually means to "bring out from within that which is
already in the soul, to assist the soul in its development." So then,

in its truest sense, education is a way to learn how to live in your

own interpretation of the movement of the universe. As if you are your
own planet moving and turning and creating at your own pace and in
your own way, and yet part of a dynamic whole, orbiting the same
golden sun as all the rest of us. Each of us learning how to enjoy
being in the solar system together is the process of each soul
learning to reference their own highest self and getting to know
themselves. When we know ourselves we enjoy others more too! All of
this is what we at The Clairvoyant Center of Hawaii and Magic Isle are
deeply committed to.

The key to a happy and fulfilling 2011 is each of us learning how to

work with the higher rhythms and the inner rhythms. The true ones

versus the ones that have been created outside of us by others, the
ones that have been created outside of the awareness of the universes

true movement. It is also about learning how to learn in, work in,
create in, and participate in structures (systems, groups, schools,
agreements, trainings and classes, techniques and practices, etc.)
that allow us to open more and more to
knowing the essence that is truly us.

In 2011 we welcome you to come and participate in The Clairvoyant
Center of Hawaii and in Magic Isle. Here we have a wide variety of
classes and training programs where you have plenty of space to tune
into and learn to see your own true essence, creating more space to
learn to know yourself. It is enlightening to learn specific tools and
techniques that allow each of us the freedom to clear ourselves out
wherever and whenever we need to. The ability to know and see with
ease, the truth of being is an exciting and wondrous experience.

Come and join us in 2011 for safe, fun ways to find and explore your
freedom, communicate with your higher self, see the colors of spirit
and be part of an agreement that recognizes the light and the uniquely
glorious vibration in each of us. It is a magical experience for
someone to look at you and see you moving according to your own beings
interpretation of divine rhythm and flow. To have this seen by another

is a validation beyond imagining that often brings tears of joy. It

offers great opportunity in awakening within the inner eye the colors
of the souls true radiance. This is true liberation and it is a
wonderful spiritual freedom.

Enjoy this year as you seek each day to understand what it means to

"know thyself." May each of you through the crossroads offered to you
and be able to ride the wondrous rhythms of the universe so that you may fulfill your greatest dreams!

In Warm Aloha and Loving Admiration of Your Soul's Journey,

Message for 2010

Most of us are in the pursuit of life, liberty and happiness. In 2010, the pathway for creating this in our lives opens up wide. We have clear access to an opportunity to realize our own souls music and radiant light!

Your spirit has its own unique resonance, and you as a being have a piece of music that lives within you. It gives you purpose, passion, joy and life force. Each of us has a unique set of musical notes, a composition that is humming within us. Each of us are here in this life time on independent and interdependent missions to find and fine tune our own piece of the music that is part of the all. In 2010, we are all gifted with the time and space to clear away the cacophony of noise that alters our own resonance. In doing so we are able to enter fields of a greater and more brilliant harmony than we have yet imagined. As we each truly know and embody our own part of this great harmony, then we are able to join it with the notes and songs of others. In other words, after we polish up our personal piece, we are able to join the bigger orchestra and allow our own notes to play and mingle in a symphonic harmony with that which brings greater and greater light into everything and everyone. Sound delightful? Truly it is.

One of the great challenges to obtaining this accord are the remnants of old indoctrinations imbedded deep in our culture. Perhaps at some point you have felt like the walls are coming in at you from both sides and you are about to be squeezed to death, as in Edger Allen Poe's famous story? While these walls are only metaphoric, they feel quite real as the squeezing is occurring. Perhaps you have noticed that in the place between the walls is no freedom, liberty, light or joy. These walls are commonly made up of several things:

Feelings: Some of you may find that certain notes seem to play over and over. This has to do with getting stuck on or in an emotion. Then, just like that, the walls crash in and the music is gone! One of the secrets to keeping the music going is learning that all of your feelings are part of the process to discovering your music. They are like a treasure map, capable of leading you to place where you can discover and read the music. Some of the notes of your own song may go very deep and into some of the heavier emotions. There is nothing wrong with that. It is all part of the big composition of our creator and the music itself is a map that helps us find our way to our souls true place in the big picture of the all.

Intellect: Often when we feel the walls coming in, we become cornered in an intellectual place. We find ourselves trying to figure it all out over and over and over until we are quite overwhelmed. Some people experience this as a chaotic place and still others get trapped, and make this place a static, and compartmentalizing everything into a rigid and painful box.

One of pathways to getting out from between the walls is to start to hear, to know, to see, to feel the music that has been placed in your soul. With the realization that you are not enslaved by the mind, by what is good or bad, you become involved in the music. The music is a direct line to your own answers, your own rhythms, your own liberty, and your own self! To really have, know and understand the oneness of all and the great music of the universe, you must first find and embrace your own soul's piece of music.

Talk a moment now and breath deeply. Imagine that your soul has a song and you are here to learn to sing it or play it, to realize it. How does it feel to sit and simply allow this to be?

A challenge we face this year is to recognize our strengths and our weaknesses, and in the process, to enjoy them and allow them to help us grow and learn. In order to really learn your soul's music, you have to be able to go up and down the scales, to master the high notes and the low ones, to have the thunder and the rain, the sun and the wind. You must embrace yourself, your feelings, your life experiences and circumstances, rather than criticizing them, and trust that your soul knows the path home.

All of our classes and programs hold a common thread in that we allow them to vibrate in a tone that is like a garden, a child's garden (or kindergarten) to be specific. In a garden, we are safe to explore, play, learn, grow, harvest, weed out, fertilize, create and so on. Here, each person is free to be at any stage of growth, from learning the basic tools and toys of gardening to being a master gardener. There is something for everyone. In our awareness, if we maintain this frequency as the background in all our fields of learning, then each participant can be supported in what they want to grow in the garden, what they want to do and how they want to play and create in the garden of the soul. This leads us back to discovering our unique set of notes, our special piece of music in the symphony of the all. Through it, you can truly begin to gain awareness of your purpose and your light! To be free in this way brings an astoundingly clear awareness and the potential for great joy. Try it right now. Step forward, move out of the back of your head! Emerge from the place of intellectualizing or figuring out spiritual reality and into a place of having and enjoying it. Only here can we truly know the light within and around us.

So in this sacred garden of the soul of the child in you, you are free to transform and learn your own place in the flow of all. This is a place where you can grow and discover without the criticism and demeaning inner chewing up that spits us out of the garden with unprocessed realities, broken dreams and unsung songs. Hello! Did someone say we had left the garden long ago? Have you heard that story? Well, guess what? In 2010 it is time to reenter the garden and dream our dreams, sing our songs, play our music and live our lives with freedom, liberty and happiness. Yes, the garden!! Guess what else? You don't really have to reenter the garden, all you really need to do is awaken to the awareness that you have always been in it, in fact you didn't really ever leave it, you just may have thought you did! AHA!

At The Clairvoyant Center of Hawaii, also known as the Meditation and Wellness Center of Hawaii, and Magic Isle, we are committed in all of our activities, classes, programs and meditations to the process of living in that garden and learning to recognize our own music. We are here to provide sanctuary and a variety of curriculums to help you learn tools and techniques to work as a spiritual being and clear away the blocks, the pain and the obstacles to getting out from between those walls and reentering the garden so that you, each of you and each of us, all can know our own music and create greater light by playing it.

Come join us in 2010to discover more about your knowing, seeing, singing, and loving your own music! Doing this will allow you to be energized, passionate, and clear as you manifest your dreams in wholeness in both this world and the next.

Who wants to know, see, sing, love, vibrate with, feel and manifest within their life the light and music of their own song? Is it you? Know that when you do, you will be joined in a tremendous and radiantly joyous harmony with all those already connecting the epics of their song with the others who have truly realized theirs. This joy passeth beyond all understanding, leaves the intellect in the dust, opens the heart and brings a life of fulfillment and vibrancy beyond all else.

A friend of mine passed over recently, and from the other side he told me that when he looked back here, what he could see was where the light was. He told me that light is what matters more than anything else on this earth walk. Creating light!

Are you doing that or have you been spinning your wheels and caught between the walls? If you have, just take a deep breath and release what has been. Take a step forward into the garden of light. In 2010, step forward and work with all of us to create light, humor, music and wonder on this magnificent globe, Earth.

May the grace feed you in all that you are and all that you do. Here is to harmony becoming sweeter and sweeter as we join our notes in the song of the soul.

In Warm & Rhythmic Aloha,
Rev. Lisa French

Message for 2009

Aloha!

Nice to see all of you across the planet, each of you creating your amazing journeys on this Good Earth. I greet you with a Radiant Heart, excited about the possibilities for us all in the powerful and present year ahead.

I have been considering a message for this year, 2009. As I meditated upon it, what became very clear and very essential is the vision of unity. Lets start by considering some definitions of unity. What is it?

According to several dictionary definitions unity is:

“The state or quality of being one; The state or quality of being in accord, in harmony; Something whole or complete formed by combining or joining separate things or entities;"

"The act of combining separate things or entities to form one”

Take a moment and notice your inner being’s response to these definitions.

First, lets greet the vibrational frequency required to attain unity. It is a very powerful and loving place, a kingdom of music, brilliance and immense beauty. Tune in right now and see what that looks like or feels like for you. I am looking at some glorious colors from over here.

What is your vision of unity? Do you have one? Let’s explore this!

The potential in the vibration of unity is amazingly radiant! Can you feel and imagine what it means to you and yours for true unity to happen in our world? In the frequency of unity, it is possible to heal absolutely anything! It is a container for grace. It is a place where you can have all the joy, creativity, safety, prosperity, wellness, communication and love that you are needing and wanting. Let's proceed together and build a true vision of unity!

Keep in mind that creating and manifesting this vision is a process. It is important to remember that we are each building new reference points for unity, as we may not have had enough experience of it in this lifetime to hold a true knowing of it.

Many of us have been raised in families, schools, communities, societies, etc. that were not operating in a very harmonic state. Sometimes these places were so disconnected that there was little to no harmony at all. Because of this, we have adapted and coped with having our foundations set in the energy of anxiety and a disassociating sense of separation.

Many of us in the world have been aware of this on some level, and have been, in varying ways, (and yes I am talking to you!) making a new dream, a dream where we can find a way to heal the fragments within and create space for true unity in the world around us.

At this time, this moment, take heart, for all the work you have been doing and all of the dreams you have been dreaming are paying off. Look around. The world is changing! There is more to do now than ever, but we are moving towards this unity and that is fantastic! It is time for us each to have a vision for unity and hold it close so we can use it to help heal our world. So how do we move with the river that would take us there and what are the obstacles?

We have, in this world, and certainly in the USA, been living for quite some time in a state of division where people are separate from and sometimes afraid of each other, often becoming strangers with our neighbors and families and even parts of ourselves! Certainly experiencing this sense of being divided or split apart is very apparent within so many of us. Within our own beings we have often stopped hearing ourselves. We may have a difficult time in knowing who we are and what we want.

Often times painful experiences have caused us to separate so many parts within us that we tend to become conflicted in our hearts and souls. This comes back to us in our daily lives through our work, relationships, finances, families, health, daily schedules and ability to simply find a quiet place within. It also comes back to us in the state of world affairs. We all experience these things in varying degrees, but until the collective community is well, we each have work to do within ourselves.

We have become very good at being separate and divided as a culture. As communities, we have learned to operate very independently of each other. While this has been part of a process in evolution that needed to happen, we as a culture have gone too far and at great cost to our planet, our societies, our bodies, minds and our souls. While it is a normal process in evolution to swing back and forth on a pendulum, ever seeking the balance point, it is now time to become more conscious of doing this so we can find a fresh equilibrium and honor the having of a whole journey.

Part of the light side of this great division that has been happening is we have worked on refining the ability to focus in on ourselves and can more and more often march to the beat of our own music and create our own patterns in the fabric of life. While that is wonderful, what happens when it is time to create together? Are we able to step in and learn a vision together and each do our part to fulfill a larger pattern? Something has been missing here for some time and all across the world we see signs of the discontent, the warps, the diseases of mind, body and soul that come when we cut ourselves off from the unity that is part of our journey together here on Earth.

In the USA, under the political administration that is now passing out of power, we have been separated one from anther (through fear, the financial situations and much more) and our unique point of view has rarely been honored. Look how polarized the USA became! People either agreed or disagreed, there was very little middle ground! Clearly this was a reflection of the conflict within the American people, of the pain of turning against our own dreams and our own paths more often than not.

Now we have new leadership that wants to consider all points of view and allow us each the opportunity to consider many more points of view than our own! Imagine a leader, or anyone ( like ourselves!) for that matter, who can say, "I know you disagree with all I want to do right now, that's OK, but I want to know why you disagree, and what you perceive and what you'd like to see happen and why you want that." That is a mature perspective. Can we learn to have that with each other and within ourselves? Can we peacefully say hello to the conflicts and begin to create enough communication for resolution to occur? This is the message of 2009- Unity in our communities, our worlds, and greatest of all, unity within ourselves!

It is a huge boon that we have a new opportunity, and it is a direct result of the work you and other spiritual people like you have been doing with great perseverance for quite some time now. Pat yourself on the back! You've been doing a tremendous job planting the seeds of a new dream! So now what? We have gotten very good at being separate and independent, so how do we unify?

Let's consider that this is like weaving fabric. The threads start in us, but then to unify and actually make fabric and not just have a lone string of thread, we weave our thread into the world and with the threads of others. It comes back to us, then goes back into the world and together we have the opportunity to create a pattern of great strength and beauty. Each of us has a chance to spin our own beloved thread and then to weave a high vibration into the fabric we co-create with others.

But what happens if we forget an important step, my second key word in the message here, which is communication. We have been experiencing quite a bit of what happens when we each go about weaving our own patterns and we don’t confer with each other in our families, work places, schools, community projects, churches, social groups, etc. about what the pattern should look like so that it works for everyone, so that it allows us each our unique self and at the same time unifies us as a people and strengthens us inwardly and in the world.

To weave into unity we of course must delve into the inner world of ourselves and find that unity within. I invite you to try an exercise here. First would you spend one minute criticizing yourself and your life. Yes, just do it!

Notice is this familiar?

How does your body and heart feel when you do this?

What is your vision of life as you do this?

Now spend one minute telling yourself wonderful things about you and your journey and then see how that feels and looks. You can do the same exercise with your life, spend one minute thinking and imaging critically toward your work, family, relationship, organizations you work with, etc, and then do the same for one minute but with great gratitude and validation for it all. What do you notice?

Maybe you are one who is able to stay out of that critical and divisive point of view, but you live in a world with many who don’t, and as such, we need to understand this and work together for the sake of our divinity.

You can see here how different these two ways of operating are. One divides us and the other unifies us. Now is the time to find the old and painful images, patterns and programs in our beings that have kept us in conflict and in a divided state. There are so many old patterns of pain: “No one believes in me”, “No one really supports me”, “I have to do it all myself”, “ I am not good enough for this”, “These people are all idiots”, “It will never work”, “People don’t see or hear me”…oh it goes on and on.

There is no time left to dwell in these old patterns. It is time to release them, to let them go, to learn to trust, to give our support to ourselves and to each other! It is also important that we process anything we are stuck on or we will use the old pain to construct our new images of false unity and project them onto others and merely create more pain. Whatever your tools for processing and healing are, use them at full force and if you don’t have any, for heavens sakes, it is time for some!

There are those who in their pain would rather stay very separate and not hear the ideas and values of those around them, and instead of weaving a beautiful fabric together, they will tear the fabric of our communities apart by being selfish and divisionary, albeit unconsciously. It is time to be patient with them, and teach them a new way to awaken from the isolation that has had them bound in never seeing the big pattern and the kindness it takes to work together to achieve wellness. These people want to go home as much as the next person, they simply think that by separating more, they will get there faster; which we know is simply not true!

I am not saying that you should allow them to hurt your creations, but we do need to consider what they reflect of the common state of division and pain. So let’s pray for them and educate them with love. Let’s support them to seek to heal themselves, as we do the same for ourselves, so we can join our many streams into a huge and strong river moving with vitality and clarity towards the great sea.

It is now time for each of us to begin a deeper level of commitment to creating communication within ourselves and within our world. It is not a time to run about in our old patterns, too busy to communicate with each other and create a beautiful and healthy world together. Perhaps we can each look at the depth of our commitment. If it was possible for it to be like water and be ten-leagues deep, how deep are you going and how much deeper do you need to go? Take a plunge right now and go just a little deeper.

A great step now is to step back and consider what pattern best suits the family, business, relationship, community, school or whatever organization we are working with and not the pattern we each like best. We have had enough of a contest of wills. It is not time for each of us to be so individual that we can’t harmonize with each other. Just think how the music in an orchestra would sound if everyone played only their own song! Yes, it important that we be good with our own instruments and take the time to hone our skills, but more than ever we need to establish functional patterns and musical compositions that allow each person to be whole and to work together in communication to create our communities.

Consider the music and the other musicians and in doing this, we create the opportunity to look at and consider the music within us, the pattern of our own inner fabric so that we can enjoy the song and we can weave a pattern of inner light and awareness that allows us to be fulfilled in our journey this life time.

It is time to consider;

“How can I best operate as part of the whole?"

"What can I contribute?"

"Am I listening to the people around me?"

"Are they communicating where they are and what threads they need for the pattern to come out?"

"Are we aware of working on a pattern of wholeness together or are we all creating something diverse and disconnected?"

"How can I create clear imagery and bright radiance within me so that I can be aware of the patterns of wholeness within and communicate with the community of my choice so that wellness, harmony and clarity occur?"

"How do we each support ourselves and each other in a fresh, radiant & well considered vision of life?"

Hey, we all know what disconnected feels like within ourselves and within our culture, we have that experience, so now we have this huge window to learn more about connectedness!

Together we can weave a pattern that allows both personal and community enrichment: we can open a door that allows light to enter into us all.

Take a moment and allow yourself to notice the Great Sprit and the Divine Mother loving you, the heavenly child. They are holding you in the vibration of grace. Your own vision of unity with your divine parents will empower you in the year to come as you do great works within your self and within the reflective world around you.

I congratulate you on all you the wonders you have accomplished for us all, to get us here. I welcome you to work with us or to continue the path that does work for you so that we can all find the space to be fluid, joyous and healthy both alone and together.

May you each find the glory of the song that fills you with freedom, & Together may we all play music, weaving a thread of light from each of us that feeds the greater patterns of the soul and brings us all united in creative enthusiasm,

With Tremendous Respect, Aloha & The Blessings of the Great Spirit,
