Personal Guidence

An individual matures, she moves from childhood where parents are holders of all truth, to an organization who speaks for god, to other teachers and gurus who "really" know the way. Many stay stuck in the path dictated by others. A mystic remembers that the Divine landscape is Hidden below the forms we see. Stewarded by Beings of love, patience, commitment and integrity, we can each find our truth.

A Mystic's View. May it inspire your journey into the Divine below the forms

A is for Alchemy

A recent request to my Facebook communities brought this surprising awareness.... Alchemy is alive and well although it is going unnamed.

Alchemy? Yes...

 
There was a time when the women in a village would gather monthly during their menses. This was a sacred and valued time of vision, and communion. They talked, shared, laughed, danced and the ideas that emerged brought solutions, and greater aliveness. They were the alchemists, the  bellwethers for sanctity and stability.

So great was their influence that when invading forces come into the village, they knew that to keep the village contained and submissive, the visions, voices, intuition, healing, guidance of the mothers, grandmothers, daughters and sisters had to be silenced.

The occupiers used whatever physical force was necessary to eliminate the threat that the women posed. Women quickly learned that they could make a choice and pretend silence, submission, and hide their gifts. By doing this consciously, lives were saved and the human family was able to survive. It was a good idea in the moment but one that would have disastrous impact on future societies. By pretending weakness, women eventually forgot who they were, what power they possessed and their role to design a world that would benefit all in the web of life.  With women missing, the world was left under the rule of fear, deceit, usury, absolute obedience, what many call patriarchy.

What is magnificent is that women are sensing some inner lack. They are coming alive with an unknown purpose. They are breaking free of the gossip, back-stabbing, disregard of each other that was a natural result of demeaning and silencing women for so many generations. This leads us back to Alchemy.

Alchemy is the ability to change one thing into another and is intrinsic in women’s skills. They can take plants and create healing potions, they can transform simple foods into nourishment, they can stitch love and blessings into quilts and clothing, they can share problems over tea and design projects to change communities and they can see someone in despair or disease and visualize them loved and well.

What women have not yet done is name their ancient, divine gifts, anchor them, stand in their strength and vision and reclaim the validity of their stewardship. They are the architects for their lives, their homes, their communities, their countries and this world. And women are beginning to realize this monumental task!


 Last week I send out a request via of the “modern” psychic network, Facebook, that my daughter was going to have surgery and I would appreciate the prayers and  blessings of my sisters. Close to 200 women and men heard and answered. That blew my mind and opened my heart!

Imagine 200 villages scattered across our planet each with a mystic healer. In the quiet, dark of the night, my call was carried on the breath of the FB wind and was heard. 200 alchemist arose forming a circle of visions, healings, and blessings filled with generosity, love and power. This powerful energy touched unlimited individuals as it flowed to my daughter.


Alchemy, the power to hold focus, speak the word, broadcast the symbol, infuse with color,  and change the direction of life.  Alchemy, a gift to bring back from the “bones of our maternal ancestors”. They hid it to keep us all safe until this time, a time in which we can take back all that is ours and rise from the ashes of the burning times.

The Phoenix, the Golden Dragon of female power, is arising. And it is a power that is unstoppable!
