Timely Reminders of Service

Mon 7^th July. 

Hello Dear Ones on The Universal Journey.

Today I will speak of a very significant reminder I have had this weekend.

Apart from a touching story of personal experience a lovely spiritual speaker gave about the special animals and the connections they created for her with humans, was her message to remind us as Spiritual Workers to keep up to The Calling. 

It has cast me back to remind me of my own deep Calling. This is the one that gets swamped by insignificant daily things that overrun me; the Calling that came at such an early age; the Calling that has kept me on a steady course when I remember to embrace it; the same Calling that has guided me faithfully , clearly and securely along my Universal Journey.

Let this be a reminder of this Calling of your own.

No matter what its direction, I have been seen safely guided to shore, time and again. Having been washed up, cleansed, re nourished in its ever-so-patient embrace, gently (and sometimes not so gently, mostly due to getting in my own way!) encouraged and returned to Journey again , feeling childlike and humbled by the experience and more open awareness that it has created within me. 

It is that deep incomprehensible, uncompromising Divine Intelligence that we seek, that seeks us, that holds our hand and guides us – unerringly in its complete wisdom and love – for as the speaker also reminded us – there is no Wisdom without Love, for it is the Love aspect from which Wisdom comes. How else can the Universe function , for from Love we come and to Love we leave, and for all things in between to dwell and grow.

It is also of our greatest importance that we continue our spiritual work however that finds us, in Love and Kindness. For we have no idea, in the Great Divine Scheme of All Things, what effects culminate from this work. No matter how humble or insignificant it may seem to us from our limited perspective perched in our miniscule corner of the Universe, it all goes out in wider and wider circles like ripples on a pond. We may never know the full extent, not only through space but also through time. So remind yourself of how powerful and significant we are.

So I leave you for now in much Love and Wisdom – all enduring.

Winter: Contemplating the Nature of Change

3^rd July.

Greetings to You on The Universal Journey.

Well, the world is very chilly around here at the moment so it seems winter has decided to arrive a little later than usual. Still pretty dry though, but makes for lovely warm days in between the cold fire-side nights. A good time for contemplating Life and the wonder of Nature.

Sadly though there are areas around the globe and perhaps around you that are being interrupted by sounds of vegetation being felled and mulched, land being bull-dozered and dug up. Pockets of development happening. Ahh qe sera sera. (sigh)

Fortunately there is still much of our natural forested areas remaining and hope for it to remain so.

Change is inevitable as we travel our Universal Journey of course. It is also a gauge for us to reflect on just how we are able to adapt or adjust when it is out of our realm to do anything about. We can always pray, or project our higher vibrational thoughts towards a situation; use Reiki techniques and Qigong and Feng Shui to enhance ourselves and our environment too.

Below is a passage I wrote some years ago on change during early times teaching Qigong which is still  relative today and may be applicable along your own way. 

 "

“ The one thing that remains constant in life . . .is change.”

(quote from the honourable Lao Tze ( Lao Tzu) from the ‘Tao te Ching’.)

The constancy of life endures because of cycles , and cycles within cycles.

Native Americans also hold sacred the circle as the strength of Life that flows in that form. From the shape of wind at its most powerful as a tornado, to the gentleness of a birds nest for care and nurturing, and to the passage of the Sun around the Earth (or moreover, us around it).

Nature herself is amazing , ever changing and can teach us so much about how we can live and evolve in harmony and balance.

As a qigong/spiritual teacher , I  have grown from a yearning to be such a conscious part of the ever changing,  growing creative energies of our beautiful planet in all her glory, and therefore in as much of mine as I can muster , and pass that on as inspiration to my students. Life , growth, change and dissolving away are the natural process of all living things . But it is how we move through these periods that can be either smooth or bumpy. It is our choice.

There is another saying that I learned studying Reiki:  “ There is nothing special about what I do each day. I only keep myself in harmony with it. “

Now , as simple , yet profound as these words are,  there is nothing simple about the process required to get there,  yet in the simplicity of itself.

As humans , we make our lives complicated – with rules, agendas (some even unconsciously known to us), behavior patterns, beliefs, fears , anxieties , etc etc .

Though the simplicity of life, in harmony with itself as a universal principal, may seem to be an  unrealistic idea to apply to our own personal lives,  it is really an achievable one . The ability to bring harmony to yourself and as  support for you during energy and life changes, is possible.

It first has to come from a need; a desire from the Heart and Soul to create this pattern of harmony within you and therefore have it flow throughout your life, in every way.

Tuning in to your natural gift and blessing of intuition that we are ALL born with – and which gets stuffed away somewhere or goes on unheeded for much of our time – is the key.

As we are all aware – and growing more conclusively by the week – a change is needed in the world, to move towards a much more soul enriching and spiritually rewarding source of existence from within our selves. This is one which flows with, not against the natural energy cycles of our selves, our life plans and our world as an evolutionary process towards our highest good, to fulfill our greatest potential.

By discovering your own personal feng shui energies within and around you , your own personal peace can be a constant reality.

Opening your mind as you open your arms; gently pushing away or drawing in to provide balance – all these things can combine  in the mindful practice of qigong. It is the cultivation of chi (qi) , our life-force energy which gives all things life and returns to the ethers in its cyclic pattern. It is a means of opening to your gift of intuition, your yin and yang and flowing with your life’s cycles and changes.

Yin and Yang are the basic opposing , yet perfectly synchronized combination of energies. Evenly divided, a little of one always within the other and constantly changing, morphing , transforming from one to the other and those they touch.

Growing from this comes The Five Elements Theory. Here,  fire, metal, water, wood and earth each co-dependent on the other in the cycles of creation as well as dissolution or destruction. This is ever constant and ever evolving and growing our natural world. The energy is never lost – just recycled, and fluidity of life - balance of life -  can come from tuning in to the natural cycles and working with and not against them.        "

Fare Well on The Universal Journey.

'New Shoes'

Sunday 29th June .

The Universal Journey continues.

Hello Dear People, Greetings from Starwhite Earthguide.

Well I hope you are not wearing out too many shoes on your Journey so far!  

This year is turning out to be a real doosie! With so much rolling over (and continuing) from past energy sheddings and alternate possibilities for life-paths, plus relinquishing of old behaviour patterns and karmic or contracted agreements from past life or pre-life and midst-life consults – we are so being re-written! The great challenge comes from endevouring to actually live from and put into practice, our new ways of being in the current world , as directions ( of others and the world at large) alter and convolute around us. Practice makes perfect :)

Take time to breathe deeply and steadily.

Take time to pause and drink in the Natural World around you.

If you cannot get out into Mother Nature, revisit old memories of such times as you have had before to keep that connection alive within you.

Remember, that others around you are also going through shifts and changes and are probably not aware of that. Try to have patience and understanding as ‘awakenings’ can occur spontaneously in the correct environment for people.

Be helpful but also be in your own space as much as possible. 

Qigong – Feng Shui practices can help you adjust your environment and for those around you. But do not set high expectations , just relax and allow the qi energies to flow and blend.  Qi has an intelligence of its own. 

Remember Qigong is like Feng-Shui for the body and as tranfers of energies occur between you and your surroundings, be patient, practice and ‘walk away’ to allow the processes to occur, if it is right and best for them to do so.

It is all well and good to have an understanding that we are now ‘co-creators’ of our upcoming world of a higher vibration. But, hand in hand with that comes responsibility and wisdom that does not need to be forced upon others, no matter what our new belief systems may be. 

There may not even be a new belief system for some of you soon. . . all a part of growing up and expanding beyond old paradigms of expectation and thought. 

Continue to let yourself be intrigued, inspired and curious about the mysteries of the Universe, God (or whomever Great Power/Creator you pray to) and Mother Nature. This wonderment of our child-like nature of us as humans is a real gift to be embraced. Plain knowledge is sometimes not all it is cracked up to be!

So, go well , safely and soundly as you continue to tread your own Universal Journey.

Blessings of peace and wonderment be with you.

Signing off for now,

Starwhite Earthguide.

Unfurling New Leaves.

Mon 9^th June 9, 2014

Greetings Fellow Travellers on The Universal Journey.

How are you all going?

Well it has been some time since I wrote here. 

I have been undergoing some very private intense times over the past months with deep healing, behavioural reconfiguration and release, not to mention most intense grounding and ‘hurdle jumping’! – say, it must have been the ‘hurdle jumping’ that injured my foot recently in a fall, but all on the mend now.

This recent injury has fallen (pardon the pun) at such a pertinent –but not really surprising - time as I have been given Spiritual Guidance in a new (well new for me anyway) branch of energy and healing forms in a very personal way . It has been like a very private retreat from the world at large, for me, even though life of course has continued on around and for me with its relative routines.

My diligent reading and small practice of varying exercises have often been followed by  life experiences to illustrate and provide small testing grounds for my newly forming understandings and to allow me to see how my behavioural or reactive shifts have occurred within me. And thus a new paradigm of myself becomes created from which I begin to live, progressively firmly, in an ever so subtly different way and from a new perspective. And yet with a view to maintain flexibility and clarity.

And of course all the many astronomical events and numerological vibrational changes have assisted this process as always. I enjoy looking back slightly to see the surrounding elements which have been at play as I've followed my own Guidance with things. That helps reaffirm the credibility of my intuition and perceptions.

It is like together, my Guides and my Higher Self say: “ Ok , so you have academically learnt this new way/thing, here is an opportunity to experience that and discover the change and liberation that has formed in yourself now. And then I do, sometimes with welcome surprise, and I rejoice privately and resoundingly!

Of course this process is usually common in our lives in general, if we take notice. But for me it has been most noticeable and at the forefront of most of my days (and at many times the severe potency and intensity of it has been very distracting and confronting!) 

It takes courage and patience to come out of a comfort zone, especially when you may not even have realised that you had created one in the first place! There are so many lessons associated with that alone! And our age and life experiences upon this Earth during this lifetime makes such a difference to each person's individual process.We need to be able to move ahead and comfort zones restrict this. (Although, I must add that at times these zones are necessary periodically in fearful or very emotional states - I am speaking generally here)

People may not notice a difference. That is of no significance, but it is for me to know and feel it myself , as a precious and sacred communion between mySelf and Higher Guiding Forces,  not for others opinion or curiosity.

And on life goes. Things continue to unfurl as the new leaves of growth emerge from the branches of those whose Autumn leaves were released.

So, to any of you experiencing great changes and shifts and the awesomeness and liberation that brings – congratulations and keep up the good work! Our Mother Planet is sincerely grateful as our efforts raise and liberate her as well. It is always of mutual benefit.

Blessings on The Universal Journey.
