2012


The magical year of 2012 has arrived. What will it bring and how will it be with everything that has been said and published about the end of an era? It may be a bumpy ride still for a while to come as we are being shaken and stirred involuntarily or unconsciously and are preparing for a new phase in the history of life on Earth. I believe we have an unimaginable influence on how things turn out.

You may be a follower or not of the Mayan predictions, the fact is that a cycle of 26.000 years comes to an end. How can you escape such numbers and not wonder what it means? We've witnessed plenty of escalating changes the world over in all areas of existence. Climate debates, wars and terrors, economical crises and small scale anguish leading to big stage events like the Arab Spring. Everything happening so much faster than ever before that it makes you think that the Mayans had something going on with their Higher Knowledge. The Mayan temples are all built as symbols of time; each level representing a period of time, moving upward the stories become smaller symbolizing a quickening of time. We all feel that as we somewhat ignorantly say things like ' it feel like yesterday when I was decorating the Christmas tree' or 'time flies' ...you hear it more and more. Technology is a great example of how time is speeding up. Can you imagine not having a cell phone or computer when it has only been 2 decades that we are using them. But that's not all, the changes we are going through go much deeper. As we are oozed into a higher level of consciousness preparing for the unfolding of the Golden Age many can feel turned inside out and upside down. Young children are already ahead of us in many ways. Their brains and bodies are better attuned to the higher frequency in which the Earth is resonating. We will become more and more aware of things that have been hidden and kept secret and thus gain deeper understanding of their meaning.
Let 2012 be a year when we cast away that which no longer serves us and invite the new unknown and abundant possibilities to become who we truly are. I wish you all a Happy New Year!

Christmas

After a 24 hour trip to London there's no way you can escape the Christmas vibe. How is it that in just a few days a large part of the human population lightens up as much as possible; buying gifts and food enough to last for weeks in a frantic state to get everything done in time for .... what exactly? I bet most people aren't even aware of the real meaning of Christmas other than it being the day Jesus was born in Bethlehem. The story has taken us away from the essence of what it really entails.
That is to enter the season of Christmas with the intention of being a personal messenger of light and love, and celebrate in the name of service to Higher Power . At this time in the Northern hemisphere the light returns to earth and so also to our hearts from which a feeling of joy emanates. This raises the vibration and level of consciousness.
Every character in the Nativity Scene metaphorically resides in all of us. The Shepherds, the Wise Men, Joseph, Mary they all symbolize a part of us. We dare to wonder like a child as the Shepherds show; we search to seek wisdom like the fool in the embodiment of the Wise Men. The strong silent Joseph tells of our obedience to what life presents us and Mary, the loving one shows us the way to Christ, the Light.
The ornamented Christmas tree we put up in our homes is the gift of hope and joy. The evergreen fir pointed upward together with the glittering decorations lift our spirits, as re-birthing of the soul and bringer of light.
As we shop for gifts and such to celebrate this Light feast whether you are a Christian, a Muslim, a Hindu or an Atheist let our intentions be to bring peace to the world as a servant of Higher Power. May you all have a Merry Christmas.

Ready for take-off

For everyone a new fase is a different experience and some might not even welcome it quite at the same time. The eagerness for children to leave home is more an urge to explore their own possibilities and be independent than to actually say goodbye to their childhood. They happily sail off with their little lifeboats in the knowing that the mother ship is steadily cruising in familiar waters.
When that ship however is about to be docked and no longer houses the family, the separation between the self-evident picture of a home including more than four walls and a roof falls apart. Change makes the world move faster and wrapping your mind around it takes a moment. Emotions need to be brought up to speed with unsettling effects. Once it has the excitement of the new prospects become the rope to hold on to in their dive and the space for the new phase presents itself.

House for sale


You never realize what something feels like until it becomes a reality , any experience in life you haven't lived is a surprise. The strange thing is your imagination beforehand either makes it a pleasant one or a painful one.
After 22 years letting go of the house is stepping into a new place entirely. The very foundation of your home life is up in the air. Total uncertainty as to when, where and what will come to pass can be very disturbing. Is it my anticipating nature or awareness; I'm not sure but fear is not an option in my book. I've got a feeling of closure and acceptance toward letting this part of my life end if only because of the excitement that lies ahead.
Within two weeks that the sign was put up in the front yard five couples have come to see the house and although it's best to not be present when strangers examine your safe haven it just seems right. You don't want to hear what they have to say much like a parent doesn't want to hear anything bad about their child.
And so it is. The next step into my new life fase has been taken.
