Dearest ,

In January I asked a couple of local friends if they’d like to hang out and create Vision Boards.  I’d noticed that Colette Baron-Reid was doing a free Vision Board class and the idea seemed like a fun way to focus on allowing 2021 to be a great year no matter what else was going on.

Like me, Pat and Augustine hadn’t done a vision board in a long time but were up for playing with the idea.  We followed along with Colette part of the time but being creative thinkers ourselves we were soon off in our highly individualized worlds.  

Each of us spent time with the ideas, sections, format, images, and words we would use, texting often and speaking weekly and in February we got together to share our boards.  They were all so different!  Augustine had several smaller boards, one of which folded like an icon triptych.  Her other boards were wonderfully evocative and image packed with many that were beautiful, unusual and mysterious photographs of her own of nature moments she spontaneously happens across.

The photo above is my board.  I found that large poster board with the amazing black and gold border and thought it was perfect 🤩 for me.  Colette had suggested choosing three or so of 8 suggested areas of focus.  I love the pentagonal star so I used five categories, choosing a couple of hers and designating three of my own.   The star gave my board a nice structure.  For my images, I used a few I had and printed the rest from Goggle Images.  Including one I found that I repeated for a background for my board.  It reminds me of Quantum Foam, a formative aspect of material creation that I’ve seen on occasion on Shamanic journeys.

• 5 GREAT things to know

Dear Blameless One,

I was just thinking that we need to see if we can get something straightened out.  It’s the tendency among spiritual people to feel it’s their fault… that they’ve done something wrong when there are hard or “negative” things in their life.

This tendency is another in the same group of human conditioning that I call the Pack-of-Lies Life Lessons.  Most of them are relics from religion.  Here’s the truth:

Taking responsibility for negative or difficult situations in our life is not the same as taking the blame.  (more…)

Dearest One,

Yes, it is a time of fluctuations, strong elation and hope, clear purposefulness, ease and strong energy.  Then suddenly, just as you seem to be “picking up speed,” there are bumps of dullness, fuzziness, fatigue, dark thoughts, physical anxiety, brief despair, etc.  These seem to be at odds. 

Naturally you enjoy the one and not the other.  But we would caution you against segmenting one as good, the other as bad, for they both simply are what is at hand in a given moment.  You might even say they are natural and necessary to positive development, and you can certainly say they are inevitable for now. 

We want to add a simple wisdom to what has been said.  These are not times to wish things were easier, to let your minds wonder and wander and indulge in the undisciplined ways of past energy patterns that embrace thoughts and feelings such as, “What have I done wrong?” or “It’s too late,” or “I feel hopeless.”  

It is time for a simple but unspeakably important task.  It is time to hold steady, to simply but powerfully hold steady in these unsteady times.  This means you must bring yourself to awareness and correction when you feel the world seemingly coming down around you.  That is the only thing to do really, this one thing.  Hold on, we would say, hold stead, for help is on its way in many forms.

Millions of humans are lost in the fears, they fear it is too late to turn things around, they feel the battle to be lost, they are ready for retreat.  You know better.  

You must hold steady, fiercely even, to the truths you know to be true: these are the most hopeful of times, the human capacity for change is enough to turn even the highest tide.  Hold steady, dear ones, for that is the task.

Let your every thought, action, emotion, and word serve this task.  Do admit and share the truth of things for you, yes, of course.  However, do not indulge in conversations of how bad things are, instead speak to yourself and others of the solutions you are seeking, the changes you are making, the new things possible now, the gains being made, the cracks that are letting the light pour in.

Find this strength of mind within you and hold that place without giving ground.  Holding steady is a task that needs no dogma, no spiritual language, requires nothing of others.  It is simply you developing your “sea legs” on a pitching, rolling deck in frequent storms.

It is a task to which you are well suited, and for which you are prepared. With confidence, we leave you to it, and we salute your sturdiness and willingness.  As you do this, you will soon see:  Help is on the way!  Help from the unseen, yes, and great blessings of light, indeed, and things to bring greater ease.  But also realize, you are sturdier than you know and part of the help that is coming is YOU.  With love, as always, we join you in the fuller presence that you are.

Revealing the Source

of Heart of Love Messages 

I call this type of reading ‘inspired and integrated wisdom.’  The connection I make is with what I call my “expanded self.”  This places me in more direct contact with a greater body of wisdom.  In this I feel, as well, the team that works with me from the “unseen” world, and the culture at large. 

Some cultures call this the ‘Ancestors’, some belief systems might say God, or guides or angels, and others speak of the Higher Self.  I leave the terminology to you.

We each have access to far more than we have been led to believe.  Shamans, wisdom keepers, and spiritual leaders have long known this.  What has been less common is for each of us to begin to connect with this “more” that we are, on a daily basis.  Our brain and subtle energetic systems are created to connect with this fullness; we need only practice, as with any ability. 

It makes me smile to feel the connectedness in this way, and more and more that is the sense I walk in throughout each moment of my day.  I share this information about the source of my Heart of Love messages because I know that more and more this is how you walk through your day as well.
