The Ride in July

This past July was quite a ride with the eclipses and so forth. Everyone was working with the energies of family, mother, father and all relationships to do with past and old energies coming up to be reviewed and transmuted.

For me this took on a most personal pathway as my mother passed away in June and her services were in July between the eclipses. Being a Cancer and a Cancer moon I am sure my chart was hit most directly by this eclipse in Cancer. Other than dealing with the feelings and past memories of my childhood with my mother it also included all family members.

Most of my family has all drifted apart for many different reasons, some are disagreements but mostly I feel it is because we are all different and have grown in different directions in life. We definitely choose our family before birth but how we work that out here in the body is our freedom of choice. Once we have learned the lessons with that particular soul we may or may not continue to have a lifetime relationship. There is no right or wrong about that. It is no different than many times we have outgrown a relationship with a partner and move on in life. As all relationships, we either grow and learn together or if some choose not to than we outgrow each other. Many families force them selves to have relationships because society has taught if your blood you must stick together, but most of those relationships are maintained though guilt and not heartfelt truths with each other.

I had not seen or been together with my sisters in many many years and so with all of us back in the same space together it was interesting. I did as my Shaman teacher taught me many years ago, to step back from it and watch it all as a movie. In doing this and with an open heart I could more clearly see why each person was the way they were. We all chose different ways and paths to deal with our pain with our growing up years. For some it was to work it out in therapy and learn and grow from it, for some it was to keep festering the wounds of the past and for others it was to pretend everything was great so all is well. Whatever choice was made it now dictated how each lives their life.

In the past I would feel sad for those who festered their wounds or pretended their life was different than it really was but I realized last month that sadness is based on what I know and want to experience and in a sense is a judgment. I for the first time was able to sit back and feel compassion on a soul level. What I mean by that is I honor that is what they have chosen so it is right for that individual and how they choose to walk their lessons in life. This does not mean I have to want to participate or be in those energies if they do not resonate with me, but the WHY I don’t want to is different now. Instead of it being laced (unconsciously) with judgment it is now a firm choice from my heart and soul and with compassion.

I truly am grateful for all of these experiences in my life to be able to have the opportunity to keep looking and feeling deeper and deeper within my heart. I have learned a lot the last moth with the interactions and the abundance of lessons that came from how each person interacted including me. I am blessed and grateful for all the experiences this world enriches my life with.

Blessings!

Speaking From the Heart

Speaking From the Heart

 

I am usually very good at communicating and I tend to be able to speak to every person or group from they would understand, based on beliefs and such. Even though I am good at this I was stretched a couple of weeks ago. I had a group from Japan to come and take a 2 day seminar with me. The interpreter could only come the second day. The workshop was an in depth workshop about over soul, soul, spirit and multi dimensions.

It was truly a stretch my first day. I truly wanted from my heart for them to really get it so I took whatever it took to get it across until I was sure they understood. Through many tools for examples, animation and darn near charades, I got it across and they did get it. Whenever they would finally get an AHA moment I raised my arms in the air and said Ching Ching, lol. By the end of the class they were doing it themselves. I realized the reason I did get through is because I truly wanted to from my heart. This made we wonder how many times we do this daily with people all around us we love?

Do we really reword, animate or do whatever we need to in order for someone we love to truly understand what we are saying or feeling? Many times we fall in the habit; they know me or should know me by now so they know what I mean. We all have different definitions for words. Love, happiness, struggle and so forth most times mean differently to each individual. This is because our definitions are based on how we grew up and all of our past experiences. A struggle of a sort could seem minor to one person where another it would be a great hardship. So how often do we really make sure the other person REALLY knows what we are feeling and saying?

I know that I had this experience because I have been studying communications for years now and am in the process of developing a communication workshop. This experience has only stretched and enhanced my view for more great things to add to it. I feel blessed and grateful for this insight.

Play!

Play!!

 

Don’t forget to play. That may seem a very weird thing to remind you of, but in the hustle bustle of everyone’s day, the stresses of family and finances the first thing that seems to go out the door is play.

Play is so important because it can actually relieve a lot of the stress built up in our bodies and minds. Play will assist us in reigniting our imaginations which is also very important. The imagination is the core center of keeping your intuitive open.

Play does not have to cost, it can be a pick nick (even indoors), and it can be a trip to the park and swing or play on the slide. When is the last time you went to swing or slide? Play can be getting a coloring book and getting creative in it. Having ice cream and playing with it and making it different shapes in the bowl.

Play is so important to assist us not only in relieving stress but also in remembering that there is a happy child inside. We spend so much time paying more attention to the wounded child that the happy child (whether discovered yet or not) is being seriously neglected and abandoned. No matter what dysfunction or painful past you experienced there is no way there was not some happy moment with someone or something in your past.

Think about it, what was the common thing you said as a child: When I grow I want to be a ____________.  Or; I want to do this________________ when I get older.

Can you remember what that was? Believe it or not it will still be a part of who you are even if you have forgot all about it. Think back and remember what was your favorite game, what was your favorite make believe thing to do? What was your very favorite winter thing to do, summer thing to do, spring time thing to do, fall thing to do? Reach back in time and just this time reach for a happy and playful moment. Then start a play list. I want to play again and do this_____________.

It can be a great adventure whether you’re single and calling friends to go do it with you then add theirs and do what is on everyone’s list. It can be a terrific family adventure and let the adults choose ones from past and let the kids choose what theirs are right now, but the whole family once every two weeks engaging in one’s idea of play. Learn to play and other wonderful majikal doors will open up for other parts of you to rise up and make them selves know to you.

Come on everyone, let’s make May about play, and I would SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO LOVE to hear about your adventures.

Love and Light,

Anne

Fear Can be a Catalyst for Change

 

Fear is interesting; if we let it consume us we can become paralyzed in life. If we let it up rise within it can tell us all the stories of “what if”, “worst that can happen”, and if we focus on these it will be exactly what we manifest.

 

We can also use fear as a catalyst for change. If we look at our fears and we ask ourselves what can we do to invalidate this fear? Where does this fear REALLY come from? Many times we use fear to sabotage ourselves. If we have a deep down fear of success, we will have all the reasons why not to pursue a venture, or we will convince ourselves of all that CAN go wrong before we even take that first step towards our success.

 

Healing fear is about understanding first why we have that particular fear and then transmuting that energy of it. From a little girl to 13 years old I had a fear of heights and I just did not know why. I never had a negative experience for my own being so it was confusing. I later learned I had seen a child fall our of a 2 story window when I was in 2nd grade. This programmed the fear in me unaware to myself, and I then had a fear of heights. I truly wanted to get over it, so I took steps. First I got on a ladder with a friend of mine at 13 that I trusted and had them hold the ladder and stay behind me. I did this a few times until I felt safer. I then took it to the next level and went to learn rock climbing and did this until I had no more panic feeling inside. Transmuting this fear by facing it also opened new doors to me and I explored things I never would have if I did not have the fear.

 

People are in a lot of fear based situations right now because of what is happening in the world around us. Everything on the news and in our lives such as people losing jobs, cut backs ect is putting out the energy (thoughts) of lack and survival. If we buy into this then we will manifest more of it in our lives.

 

Many people have decided not to have these fears or to transmute them and overcome the feelings of lack. Many have found work in areas they love but never thought to explore before. Many have started their own businesses which they were too afraid to do when they had the comfort of safety of their original jobs and now are happy they have made the leap. They have transmuted the fear and found creative ways to expand their visions.

 

Sometimes we have to just face fear and look it in the eye and decide we are going to use it as a catalyst for change and innovative ideas. One community was fearful of losing their library, there were already cuts on the spending last year and they faced more cuts this year. Instead one woman decided to make a wish list on Amazon and list books the library needed, and then advertised this on the news and many went on the site and ordered these books for the library.

 

One community was worried about their parks. The city cuts stopped the maintenance on the parks and the community was (feared) worried that it would be trashed and also that that it would magnetize lesser desirable company in the parks. They all got together as a community and they created teams and days that these teams would go to these parks and pick up trash, do gardening and keep the parks up to par.

 

In one county the cut backs were taken away from programs that assisted abused victims and they were very worried and feared what would become of them and also that it would limit the rehabilitation program for them. Many people got together in that community and are in the process of creating an organization not funded by the state and create their own program in their area by buying an apartment complex and starting their own foundation for these victims.

 

Fear can be a catalyst for change if we face it and say I do not buy into you. Instead utilize it to stretch your mind and allow the door of creativity and solutions to open to you. There are so many possibilities and lessons to this. All of these creative solutions have also taught many that we have been very dependant on outside sources to tae care of things. It is independence and a great lesson to there are many paths to a solution and it is unlimited if we just tap into it. Fear keeps us from tapping into that unlimitedness.

 

So, what are you fearful of? What can you stretch your inner being to that will give you a solution to that fear? How can you transmute that energy to be positive change? Start small and work yourself up to larger areas of solutions, take baby steps and Shift the Fear to Action!!

Closing Out This Year

November seemed to be difficult for many people and December seemed a bit better. It is important to know that in Dec we were still in an important cycle of releasing and transformation. Many of you may have been faced with releasing beliefs, feelings, old worn out hopes that do fit who you are anymore, jobs or where you live. The vibrations are higher and in adjusting to those energetic vibrations we were seeing or being forced out of anything we still had as a block.

 

December was and is a month for us to still release and heal and in that time also rest for the actions we will be taking in the New Year to come. Many times we get so caught up in the healing and releasing we are doing that we forget to acknowledge ourselves for the work we have already done and the healing we have already achieved. If you are being moved out of your comfort zone then you have done a lot of work already! In the challenging year of growth we had 2 choices, step up or give up. Which did you choose? The great news is, every new moment gives us a new opportunity to make a new choice  J

 

We are on the other side of the journey but still have work to do. December fills us with great energies to assist us to do this. Mercury goes retrograde on Dec 26th, there is a lunar eclipse Dec 31st and the full moon is in Cancer. Retrograde planets assist us by giving us an opportunity to create closure. Review anything you want closure on in your life whether it be lack of finances, friendships to be released or any relationships to release, lack of love ect. Do it now and choose to take no baggage into 2010. See your new year as a wonderful blessing about to happen.

 

With the eclipse focusing on emotions, family, the mother energy and our home, and the challenge of Pluto and Saturn which represents transformation and discipline, it makes it an interesting energy to end this year out.

 

Anyone who had worked on healing past chords and has set their attention on what they want to manifest in 2010 will start out with a bang for the new year and it will just be wonderful and full of blessings and growth.

 

Set your dreams in motion and release all you truly want to let go of for the end of this month and then get ready for the mot glorious year of 2010. Blessings to all and A Blessed New Year for each of you!!

 

Love and LITE,

LITE TIP/Christmas

LITE TIP

 

Well, I am back, and all decorated for Christmas, YAHOOO!! This is one of my favorite holidays other than Valentine’s Day. The decorating began as my son and I followed our own made tradition which is to decorate and go get our tree the day after Thanksgiving.

 

Normally we go to a tree farm that you cut your own down but this year with none close by we did not, we go it at Lowes. Usually after reminding our self what Pine stands for we would head off for the tree farm and ask the tree that wanted to give it’s medicine (qualities) to us to call us out, lol, sounds funny but how do you think you pick the tree you do  J  Then after finding the tree that will work with us in its wisdom while it shares our home, we cut it and leave a gift in the earth for thanks of the tree. We head home and make sure to prepare it well to last until New Years. Then as we decorate it we go over the many memories we have of past Christmas’s. Our tree started out years ago being all different ornaments but no bulbs. So they are anywhere from fairies, to toys, to stars, to spirals, and of course a Santa on a Harley….with sound. As people had seen my ornaments, many friends, family and clients have bought me ones to add. Other than the memories of the years we had purchased an ornament I also have many great memories of the wonderful people who gifted me ornaments. There is always a warm feeling in my heart as we decorate and remember.

 

Then the fun part of decorating the entire house, yes the entire house, lol, every room, every bathroom, you name it. I love the joyous colors, the red for me remind me as I put things up that I am about to birth a new year soon, and I contemplate on what I would like to manifest. The greens in so many shades inspire me to focus on healing, abundance and personal inner growth. I think of all of these things as I decorate. Winter is a favorite time for this Cancer girl, so I always have smells all over the house with strung from room to room candles. Bayberry, apple spice, pumpkin and forest smell from room to room. I bake like crazy in the winter and way too much as I am used to having 7 kids in the past in the house. Now I bag it and send it home to them or with friends and students in classes. I always feel a lot of love in my heart as I bake or cook soups and such knowing I am infusing them with love and passing them to ones I love.

 

As I sit at night with all the Christmas lights on in the house, the twinkly remind me of all of our spirit lights, and it is as if you are surrounded by all of thee beautiful lights (spirits) of all of the ones you know. I light the candles and feel the glow cover me in warmth and the smells that calm my soul. I then look around the entire room smiling at all the growth, abundance and birthing that I know I am surrounded by.

 

Now, not that I need a holiday to bring my child brat out as anyone I know knows, lol, but Christmas brings out my sprite energy for sure. I love wearing bells on my ankles, on my wrist, and I love making the, jingle as I walk around or dance around, lol.

 

Again I infuse the entire house with the energies of all that I feel when I decorate and I focus every day on those things as I look everywhere in the house. This year I put a live pine in my bedroom all decorated and excited looking. Yes, my tree feels excited  J 

 

I wish all of you a Merry Christmas and hope you make this holiday want you want it to be and what you want it to represent. Blessings to all.

Live In the Everyday Tip

LITE Tip

Live In the Everyday Tip

 

I thought I would share this with you. So many people always tell me how safe, warm and different my house feels. Most do not want to leave it even if they do not know me well, lol. I take that as a wonderful compliment. I always do infuse the house with love and safe warm energy but I also think it may be because when I do things in my house I do them with intent. Now this will encompass everything, lol, but for now I will only mention Thanksgiving since that is where we are right now. I will write about the Christmas one soon  J

 

As I decorate my house with Thanksgiving decorations which are more of Fall things anyway, I am thinking and feeling what the colors mean to me. The warm browns make me feel comfort, the oranges and reds make me think of creativity and forming new ideas and passions. As I put the fall wreath up, I am thinking and feeling how much I love the Mother Earth and how much she gives to us and supports and sustains us, and I feel grateful. As I am hanging streams of leaves all over the house and smelling the pumpkin spice candles and apple spice, I focus on all I am grateful for in life and all the people I am so grateful for. I emanate from my being how much love I feel for them.

 

When I put the salt and pepper shakers and all the other Thanksgiving looking dishes out in the cupboards, I have fond memories of the all the meals shared with friends, family, and students in this house. I also think on all the new ones I will have this year that will add to my fond memories for next year. As I am adding other decorations for Thanksgiving I focus on all the abundance I already have in my life. Abundance of good friends, experiences, love, warmth, happiness and all else I can think of.

 

I KNOW when I am doing this it is also filling every part of my house with those thoughts and feelings. Then when I sit back at night and light the candles and turn the water fall on, and feel a big sigh from my body release, and I gaze at everything in the candle glow, and all over again I think, feel and have a deep experience of what they all mean to me. I feel a connection of love with all that I had thought about during the process of decorating.

 

Since everywhere I look in my house these feeling are charged inside of me once more, I know it is filling the house with all of those feeling also. I am a VERY symbolic person, and when I am teaching Live In The Everyday, I really mean LIVE, BEING in every moment with all that you think, feel and do. BEING IN MOTION!!

 

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

Angels Helping Angels

Angels Helping Angels

 

Today I found out a woman I dearly love and have always felt was an angel of mine in a body, and last Friday has moved on to be an Angel on the other side. Her name is Donna Freeman and I will miss her but I know she is still near by. I would like to share a story here about Angels in a body helping Angels in a Body J Ahhhh, a chain reaction of angels  J

 

I met Donna shortly after my divorce through a woman named Joanne. I had been doing Zenith Omega healings on Joanne as she had Cancer and was a friend of Donnas. Donna called and said she wanted a reading at my house and she would drive from Bodega Bay for it because she had to have it in person. Donna owned and ran Compass Rose Gardens in Bodega Bay. Donna came for a reading with her daughters and we clicked right away. Donna said she felt I was her gardens and she wanted me to come there, she told me just visit or have a workshop in my gardens. I was a single mom of 5 children at the time and having no help or child support I was constantly busy and did not make time to go to the gardens. Donna had called many times telling me to come. Finally Donna called me and said, “I have booked many women to meet you in the gardens and we are paying for a class so we will all be staying in the gardens and it is a weekend class. She said I did what I had to, to get you here.” 

 

Before this I taught workshops with my ex, but since the divorce I had not taught solo. I planned a class for them and we had a weekend class in the gardens. This started a great friendship with Donna and also a love relationship with her garden, she was right: It was soooooooooooooo me!!!!! I could write a mini book of my experiences with Donna, but this will be a reader’s digest version. Donna and the women that were at that class brought me so many people for readings and workshops over the next 8 years. This is also when Donna suggested I do a class every year in the gardens which later became the Goddess weekend workshops! They started in the gardens and we even stayed and camped out every year in the gardens, later the gardens became so popular for weddings, I couldn’t get a booking, lol. To this day I traditionally hold Goddess weekend in Bodega bay and have done them for over 13 years now.

 

Over the years I met the most wonderful people through Donna and many beautiful powerful women that back then I felt were mentors to me, I was the younger one then, lol. I felt blessed by Donna and by all I had met through her. Donna and I have talked about this, but through her and the ones I met through her, I was able to support my 5 children and I built confidence in teaching solo and I blossomed from it.

 

Donna would invite me to all her political and fund raising events and she always introduced me to speak at some of them, (back then ugh for me, lol) and she always said our psychic Anne  and she is writing a book. I told her, no, I am not. She always said well, you will! You have to realize, many then were not ok with a psychic, lol, and because of some of their professions they would call me their consultant, yet not Donna, out there and honest, this is our psychic and she is writing a book. I so loved her strength and her honesty and integrity.

A few years later I was given a PB show and I did this for 2 years. As I was coming to close of the shows, the man who gave me the show, asked me what do you want to do for your last show, whatever it is I will do it? I asked Donna if I could tape my last 3 shows in her gardens and I wanted to do it on The Goddesses of the World. I did a 3 part show on goddesses of all walks of life, mother, maiden, crone, and many different roles in business. Donna also had an artist friend who had made 12 10 ft paintings of modern day goddesses and we had them through out the gardens. I have always called Donna a Goddess in Motion and the Mother of those gardens. Donna even recreated in part of the garden a look alike to my secret garden I used to hide in when I was a kid. She gave me a key to the garden and told me I could go there anytime and meditate there.

 

As I was taping the show there, the man who gifted me the show came, which he never did in all the 2 years I taped a show. He met Donna and he loved her right away. This man was well off and also had a lot of pull in high places. Donna had told him how she tried for years to get a permit to build a building and gazebo there for the weddings and had been denied time and time again. When we left the garden, some time after she was approved. This man told me I could never tell her that he worked it out for her to get it. He also told me he made a large anonymous donation to her to start building and I was not to tell her where it came from. For me Donna was my angel in a body and this man also was an angel in the body for her, even if it was anonymous. The gardens and Donna remained to be a gift to me in my life that just kept on giving. I made and built long time friendships and clients I love that some to this day I still have contact with, all from a class in Donnas gardens and all because Donna insisted to put one on to get me there.

 

Later, when my oldest daughter got married, Donna let her get married in the gardens. I have so many blessed memories there, so many classes, readings, healing circles; the goddess shows that we had there and then of course my daughters wedding.

 

I have stopped by the last few years when I can but we had lost touch. Then last year I stopped after my Goddess weekend in Feb and I left the book I finally wrote for Donna at the gardens. Donna e-mailed me and thanked me for it and then told me how proud she was I wrote it and told me I better write more (I will). She then started to have e-mail contact and she joined my FB. She had been telling me she wanted to get together and have lunch her, me and Carolyn which I met through Donna and also became close to. She said we needed to get together. I am afraid now, I will have to find Carolyn and we can still have lunch with Donna but Donna will be joining us in her other angelic form. I am so glad in my heart that I took her the book. She believed in me and she has always encouraged me to go for it and has told me and pointed out the work she sees in me and what she felt I was here to do on this planet.

 

There are a million wonderful stories from so many people about Donna that it could be a novel or 3, but the point is, she was very loving, giving, caring and for me a Goddess in motion. Donna was and IS loved and she has made a difference in many lives and on this planet. I love you Donna and hope you are singing and dancing amongst the heavens!

Be Present and Connect on a Deeper Level

 I have been hearing more and more from my clients lately how they see me more as a mentor and a Mom or Grandmother energy even when I am doing my coaching. When I asked why, they said they have not had women in their life that pass on wisdom to them, that the women in their life are always so busy with life they rarely share stories of their life experiences with them. We all know knowledge is good, but wisdom comes from experience, which is priceless. This had me contemplating and helped me be more observant of the world around me on this particular issue. One of the things I noticed was most people are so busy with life, but because they were, they them selves are not actually experiencing life; they are walking through it just to get through it. How could they be a mentor or share life experiences if they were not having the actual “experiencing life” them self? It does sadden my heart but it also points out to me what needs to be brought to our attention. Being a mentor is just really sharing what you have learned in life by experiences and sharing what tools worked for you. It is not telling someone HOW to live their lives but sharing your wisdom of what you have learned. This information is so important to others. When sharing these experiences you are also making a conscious connection with someone and honoring who they are. I feel our younger generation is really missing out on this kind of connection. A tribe is a family and was a role model for how to be in your own immediate family. So many today do not even have that family connection in their own homes. Having true heart to heart talks, where you look in the persons eyes and feel their heart and connect on a conscious heart and soul level is so important. It is a true gift to be treasured. I was thinking about this and had a thought of what it would be like if every person took one person a day and were fully present with them. No cell, no distractions, no cooking or reading the paper while they sat and had a conversation. Looking into their eyes and connecting with their heart and just truly listening to whatever they wanted to share. To do this and just listen but be fully present and connected is such a beautiful way to honor that person and who they are. Just listening is such a gift. I also wondered what it would be like if just once a day (more is better, lol) each person shared with just one other person every day something they had learned or experienced. Ahhh, such another wonderful gift. It is funny, but when I sit with clients or friends I have had so many tell me there is something about my eyes and they feel very loved and connected. It isn’t really my eyes, it is that I always have been someone who makes deep eye contact and I always do FEEL the person I am talking to. I feel what they are really experiencing is the connection itself. I am honoring the person in front of me and honoring where they are at this moment on their path. Their words and their feelings are important to me. I would like to challenge each person to do two things: 1) Every day sit with at least one person and make eye contact, connect with your heart and just have a conversation being 100% present with them. 2) Share one a day (or more) something you know with someone else and trust whatever you share is helpful whether you know it or not. Let’s start being more present with everyone and connecting on a more intimate level. Blessings 
