<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Some years ago, I participated in a wellness day for animals at a local horse farm. Dogs, horses and their 'peeps', animal chiropracters, trainers, nutritionists, reiki folks... all particpated together to help their animals and each other remember, feel and learn to maintain balance in and between the areas of their lives. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Together, we built a huge spiral (the most ancient labyrinthian form) in a paddock for riders and their horses to experience the healing, balancing energy of the labyrinth... Horses were huge and I safely kept my distance, with a fence between. They were (in my illusion) unpredictable and I did not feel very safe around them. Much of that has shifted today... and I find myself, once again, in close contact with these amazing creatures. Shamanically, "horse" is all about personal power... you can find that info on line... GOOGLE is such a great resource for us if we don't already have 5 books about something or other. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Since my work is primarily vibrational, I've been much more liable to sit in the labyrinth (real or etheric) and share energy medicine, healing frequencies, clearings from the 'peace and relative safety' of my own personal sacred space. Today, I may get to meet them in person! And that feels pretty exciting! AAaaahhh... horse is working within already! </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">So, three foals <em>(check out facebook pictures/info at: Kendra Bond or donate at Black Feather Horse Rescue)</em> arrived on Sunday. Many are saying prayers, participating in care & feeding of these little ones. Your participation is welcome, on whatever level you feel guided to offer. I find a smile in me <em>(it raises our vibration when we do that... try it: look in the mirror and smile at your self!)</em> and say: "I AM that I AM, The Mahatma in Love, Shamballa On, Shamballa On, Shamballa On... all in accordance with Divine Will and participation of my own I AM presence." <em>Shambala is the high energy/frequency of the unconditional love of mother/father god...</em> It is my prayer offered thru out the day, each time I think of these little 4-footed angel babies... Below (I hope, btw, I could use some tech-y help) you'll find the donation button for financial support for just the foals or you can go to </span><a href="http://www.blackfeatherhorserescue.org/"><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">www.BlackFeatherHorseRescue.org</span></a><span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;"> web site's Donate page for additional info, mailing addresses, etc. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: Georgia, "Times New Roman", serif;">Blessings and we all thank you for your support. </span><br />

<br />
A crisp sunny spring morning drew me out into the yard, pussy willows, crocus, tulip tips pushing up thru the grass... reaching for the sunlight. Household tasks afterward met with ease, a minute of reflection then to my desk. And then, this gift: Sweet Rustles Sing: <a href="http://blog.intuisdom.com/2011/03/sweet-rustles-sing.html#comment-form">http://blog.intuisdom.com/2011/03/sweet-rustles-sing.html#comment-form</a><br />
<br />
... it was like my walk, gently guided here and there, being in the moment of seeing each new bud, each little greeening herb waking. There was an ease to these forthcomings, no push, no rush, no should... just gentle expansion, life force flowing from within the earth in perfect sinc with all that was offered in support of each in their own place. The light greeting each in their own timing. <br />
<br />
And so, I AM, perhaps, what I was waiting for... in my own timing, facing the light, allowing the earth to support me in each single sacred moment of my now knowing. At one with all that is... on this evolutionary path of rebirthing, of understanding, of accepting, allowing and being... and in gratitude for all of it. <br />
Namaste'... hope you enjoy Sweet Rustles Sing... <br />

Waking up!A friend posted this morning on facebook: " I think my cup of coffee was too strong this morning...i'm wired!! (time to make use of the energy and get something done)" <br />
<br />
It was a wake up call for me... and brought me right out of my winter cave! <br />
<br />
I've been 'struggling' this winter with low energy, dull senses, slow wit... winter doldrums... feeling really disconnected... SAD... whatever you'd like to call it... for me, labels used to be irritating, until I realized that they sometimes hold a clue, a piece of info that may lead me to a solution (if one is needed). Getting off topic and back to coffee... My organic blend, organic surgar, even organic half & half when I had it, has not been doing its job!!!! About 3 weeks ago, I gave serious consideration to cutting out coffee completely. (hint: surgery may not always be the first, best solution). <br />
<br />
So, I've tapered off, using some energy medicine tools to neutralize what's been coming up about 'giving up' something I like so much! Here was my spontaneous comment... after a few mintues... the path this awareness was creating... the dots that were connecting... needed more room that a short facebook comment... so here it is. It was an amazing journey! Turns out I was feeling like I had had to give up much more than coffee in the last few years!<br />
<br />
<br />
Hi friend... Coffee was always my first thing each day. In the passed few months, tho' I'm right with you. "They" say coffee is grounding... but I wonder. <br />
<br />
In homeopathy, there is theory (fact to some) that coffee can negate/neutralize a remedy, even days after you first take it. As (more than ever!) energetic beings, I'm feeling like the energy of coffee (that wired feeling) is perhaps our 'wiring' getting a bit 'fried' so we are no longer 'in the flow' and when that happens, its an opportunity to remember what feeling 'disconnected' is like. We feel the need to push thru it, get going, do something. Good for me! it used to get me to moving and burning off the cream & sugar (even the organic kind)... It's a great tool! But, like Kamala used to teach in 4Forces... everything has its functional and dysfunctional side... my old Nana used to say... what ever gets 'em into church... awareness, understanding, balance come to each of us in unique and individual ways. <br />
<br />
Thanks for this 'set up'... I'll be tappin' (EFT) as I continue to let go of my own addictions to coffee, my need to disconnect from what is uncomfortable in my life and my unwillingness to let go of things that seem to have power over me. Wow! there's a wakeup! the root of this one may be about feeling powerless... tap tap tap... <br />
<br />
In gratitude for all that is... Shamballa On! if you like.A Silver Cord, elevating awareness of your Spirit on earthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00913574572487899083noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4028213363486928105.post-58585686792612487892010-08-09T09:54:00.000-07:002010-08-09T09:54:28.142-07:00BLISS: A favorite quote<strong><span style="color: #073763; font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><em>Follow your biss and the universe will open doors for you</em></span></strong><strong><br />

Today I am reminded that all of me can walk in balance... and I am aware that I could honor the sacred masculine a bit more... like many women these days, I go back and forth, and am often less kind to the masculine than the goddess parts of myself. My intention is to be honoring, respectful, compassionate... and its not unusual when consciously blocking what I perceive to be negative reaction or feeling or behavior... anger, being brash, pushing to get something done... that I also may be not-so-consciously blocking the my own sense of strength, personal power, determination. So... here I share Norma's honoring the Sacred Masculine Youtube... enjoy... she has been a great teacher for me. Her great newsletter always seems to arrive in 'divine timing'... and often speaks directly to my heart. Thanks Norma...<br />

</div>Thanksgiving Day labyrinth walk, cloudy, mid-afternoon... gusty, it was... the southeast wind lifting the tarps of the wood pile, blowing the rest of the Linden and Cherry leaves around the paths in swirls... little vortexes (vortices?) of wispy energy twisting around the curves of the stone-lined paths. Wind walkers dancing along the path reminding me of hay twisting into floating spirals in a hot summer hay field... dust swirling up off the dirt road, water spiraling between rocks and trees in a local stream.... or below the old river dam... How easy it was back then to get 'caught up' in those little swirls... and just drift away for a moment.... hhhmmm.... maybe in these moments, we move closer to who we really? I walk in the wind, along the path... I AM THAT, IAM!

The last of the yellow heart-shaped Linden Leaves (left) and the cherry tree (right) hanging out in the 5-path star labyrinth. This 45' diameter stone garden leads the walker along the spiral path gently turning in different directions, providing alternating perceptions of the journey to center. From mid-August until mid-October, a large paperwasp nest 'hung out' in the Linden Tree branches just above the center path. White faced paper wasps gently guarded their space... chosen for the warmth rising up from the stone paths, warmed by the bright fall sunshine, as they made themselves ready for their winter challenges. At first it was small, softball size. A group of us walked in and out of the labyrinth during a Shamballa 13D class. Half way thru my last<br />
walk, I came 3rd eye to its entrance with it. This was folllowed by weeks of asking for info from nature, reading, listening... Coming eventually to the awareness that the more I resisted their being in my space (yikes?!) the more they were resisting leaving (and yes, I asked them to move on, and so did others) but in reality, they were just subletting, squatting, where I really had no plans to be. As I released my resistance to them, it released to many other things in my life. As I invited awareness and understanding about them, I received more about other things in my life. As I came ultimately to appreciate, even welcome the wisdom and knowledge, awareness coming from the experience, to gratefully allow their presence in my life to be a gift that supported my journey, many other things in my life seemed to become easier and gentler. They chose my Linden Tree, my labyrinth, my space to hang out. Shamanicaly, the 1st wave of these critters builds the core of the next and feeds the queen, who lays the eggs, that become more workers, so there's a bigger nest, more food, etc... it's all part of their winter prep. The Linden tree is 2nd generation here of our big tree...has a gentle, calming balancing energy, puts out cazillions of tiny delicate white flowers in mid-end June. So many that the bees that come to collect the nectar can be heard all around the house. This Labyrinth, a 5-path form, numerically invites opportunity for growth and learning thru creating change and new experiences into our lives. Hhmm.... I put it all together and know that they have brought me a great gift of awareness of how things evolve... interesting... the new blog is <a href="http://www.naturalevolutions.blogspot.com/">http://www.naturalevolutions.blogspot.com/</a>.... gotta love it! Namaste' DebA Silver Cord, elevating awareness of your Spirit on earthhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00913574572487899083noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4028213363486928105.post-90024196965553430702009-10-19T19:17:00.000-07:002009-10-19T19:17:38.516-07:00From the beginning...The simplest way to start: is just to ask to connect to whatever guide or angel is working with you and put on some nice music and spend a little time on a regular basis, just tracing the paths with different fingers. Labyrinths can help balance energy in your body and aura... many think it helps clear out (tracing the path into center) what is blocking us from something and assist in bringing in whatever energy or frequency is needed to support us manifesting what we intend... (the path from center back to beginning)... no accidents, mistakes, wrong turns... just the journey to the sacred center of 'self' and back into the present moment!... all metaphore if you choose to see it that way! I like to switch fingers (different sides of the brain, you know... and different meridians running thru each finger) just to see how it feels... <br />
<br />
If you'd like more focus, pull a card or write down an issue you'd like some information on. Intend to clear any confusion about this issue on your journey to the center... pause as long as you feel guided at the middle... and listen (in as many ways as you know) to what ever flows into your awareness as you trace the path back to the beginning. Remember that a shift in energy (vibration/frequency) often takes a bit of time (and what is time?) to manifest into the physical. Be gentle with yourself... perhaps your answers will come unexpectedly in a dream or vision... an awareness or an 'ah ha!' at an unexpected moment... <br />
<br />
Experiment with different forms... The Chartes design has many twists and turns. A Classic 7 cyle, fewer paths, gentler curves... The Man in the Maze (a southwestern motif) is also fun. I'll look for some pics to put up in a few days... but you will find them all if you poke around the internet a bit... If you know a Dowser... they have lots of info about such things as well... and other cool stuff like ley lines... one of the best sites I was ever on was Sig Lonegren's geomancy site... not sure it's still around... but I'll put a link in if I can find it... yup it's here! <a href="http://www.geomancy.org/">http://www.geomancy.org/</a> I spent literally weeks absorbing the info there... and that was just the labyrinth info... Check out the labyrinth locator sites also... <a href="http://labyrinthlocator.com/locate-a-labyrinth">http://labyrinthlocator.com/locate-a-labyrinth</a> and visit local sites... our five-path labyrinth is shown in West Wareham, MA 02576. There are lots of cool links on that site as well.<br />
<br />
By the way... wondering if anyone would like to join a meet up? we could pick from the lists of local labyrinths... and plan a series of group visits. Folks from all over come to visit here... Skip & I try to visit local installations whenever we are travelling; A friend and I just happened to find one on a mountain in Vermont a couple of years ago when we were driving to a Crystal conference. We made a point to stop on our way home... priorities, you know! Sometimes, it nice just to have a visit and a walk with others and share. Feel free.. perhaps a 'virtual labyrinth share' is a better idea in New England right now... did you SEE the Snow Sunday? I put the rope labyrinth down on the green grass first thing Sunday morning.... when I picked it up just about dark, the star was frozen in shape... no way was I going to wind up and pack up all that icy rope! It's dry now... And the kit & info brochure are coming together. <br />
<br />
hhmm... the sun has set on my labyrinths for today... gonna go snuggle with the pups... hubby's out on frost watch... keeping those little red berries warm enough to become juice. <br />
<br />
In peace & wellness<br />

knowledge, links, art... <br />
<br />
Are we all connected?<br />
<br />
Are all Labyrinths connected at the center... what is going on energetically in a labyrinth?<br />
<br />
<br />
We surely are being invited to recognize that everything we do, perhaps everything we think<br />
actually creates an ongoing effect.<br />
<br />
Have you walked in a labyrinth? Did you know you can trace a the path of a small labyrinth path with your finger for an experience really similar to actually walking on a labyrinth built on the earth?<br />
<br />
Send me a note to receive one of my original designs... a heart labyrinth... <br />
with simple meditation. It's a jpg file, so you can print it out for use with the kids anytime.<br />
I will send it by email if that's ok... thanks... still working on the link thing!<br />
<br />
Post a comment and we'll figure it out...<br />
<br />
For now, you click on the small one below & print it if you like. <br />
