<pubDate>Tue, 25 May 2010 16:30:12 -0500</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[The Gulf oil spill has affected people everywhere, not just those living in close proximity. Everywhere, concerned citizens of the planet are not only questioning what the owners of the exploded rig can now do to stop the ever increasing spillage, but also how such a thing could happen and at what cost to the ecology and life of a vast area. ]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The disaster in Haiti has evoked a worldwide response of wanting to help, but most conceive of help in terms of needed practical aid, money, and physical assistance. While this remains true, spiritual help is often equally powerful when offered by a group of people. It has the potential for helping to stabilize a desperate situation by bringing light, love, and hope to those in need.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[New possibilities for greater love in relationships are part of the new time that has begun on the Earth. Instead of love being dependent upon circumstance, one can become a self-generating source of love. This is a choice that each individual can make through expanding into one's deeper and truer self.]]></description>

<title>Moving Beyond Feelings of Rejection</title>

<pubDate>Wed, 07 Oct 2009 13:22:04 -0500</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[Moving beyond feelings of rejection involves letting go of one's dependence on others to define one's identity. Though this is simple to say, it is often difficult to do since the ego-self has had much time to respond in an emotionally reactive way to the actions or non-actions of others, without knowing that another way was possible.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Within the spiritual foundation of this country are several strands of spiritual energy that form aspects of governance and the basis for law. Among these strands are forces at work that create a strong motivation toward individual freedom and self-determination, and an equally strong current in the direction of unity and love.  These two currents are spiritual forces at work within the collective consciousness of a nation.  They are affecting the current debate about Health Care and Illegal Immigration today.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[As the world changes in its understanding of spiritual reality, depression, post-traumatic stress, and, indeed, all physical disorders will come to be seen to be energetically based, and new forms of healing will develop in order to treat them... Before such a collective development takes place, it is important to understand the 'signal' function of depression and the wisdom of the body that is trying to convey something important from the soul.]]></description>

<pubDate>Wed, 02 Sep 2009 14:35:18 -0500</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[The miracle of this time of light is that the unknown and unknowable sub-currents of human motivation and feeling can now be separated out and seen for what they are - efforts at self-protection or self-support that were limited in truth but that were all that seemed possible at the time. As a ribbon may be unwound from a ball which it is wrapped around, so, too, do ribbons of change take place within the human body and heart, as each strand of consciousness in need of healing becomes exposed to the light of day.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Many are afraid to let go of roles which permit a comfort zone to exist around people, situations, and expectations.  And yet at a certain point in the process of awakening, the calling of love asks us to step beyond this comfort zone into an area where love can find fuller expression, and others can be helped to become free.]]></description>

<pubDate>Fri, 14 Aug 2009 14:58:33 -0500</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[Fear can be generated within any debate. It is the loud voice that declaims against something, and not only against the 'thing', but against the imputed motives of those who are proposing that thing. With respect to the present dialogue, fear of loss of freedom is being brought before the public in a way that gains national attention and has a powerful presence.  In the presence of the energy of fear, the aware individual must create a stable anchor point of truth within themselves so that wise decisions can be made and credible proposals can not be dismissed.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[There are many industries that have arisen in recent years due to unregulated commerce and to the appetites of large corporations to expand into new profits and new product lines.  This expansion and proliferation of products must now be reevaluated in terms of their necessity and in terms of the climate crisis that humanity now faces.

<title>The Healing of Anger</title>

<pubDate>Tue, 09 Jun 2009 14:26:07 -0500</pubDate>
<description><![CDATA[People choose anger because anger feels like it empowers the self.  It reduces the feeling of helplessness and conveys both the desire and often the capacity to 'do something' about whatever is troubling.  Often, however, the success of such a strategy is an illusion, since anger generally begets negative consequences either from the environment or from within oneself.  At the root of anger is the feeling of helplessness.  Healing requires the uncovering of this root, and the replacement of anger with innocence and trust.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[There is a parallel between what exists at the physical level and what exists within consciousness, not necessarily detail for detail, but in an overall sense of good health being dependent upon the proper flow of energy between the self and the world.  The boundary of self on a physical level is known as the immune system, and on a psychological level has to do with one's identity in relation to the world as a whole.  Often, imbalances on the psychological and spiritual level affect the physical functioning of the boundary.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In the healing of relationships from a spiritual perspective, we are asks to understand that when certain emotional energies and states are ready to reach awareness, whether on a short or long term basis, the external event will appear that seems to precipitate these energies into consciousness. The external event did not 'cause' the emotional energies. The emotional energies needing to become conscious brought into being or manifested the external event.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[Which kind of unity the G20 nations will be able to find within themselves remains to be seen - 'strategic unity' which deals with the needs of the moment, or 'intuitive unity' which addresses the fundamental bond linking all governments and all people, everywhere.

<description><![CDATA[Most people have 'cover stories' - things they are willing to tell themselves that create a sense of inevitability about feeling the way they do. This 'cover story,' while sometimes painful to admit, may be concealing an even more painful truth that the conscious self is not yet willing to recognize.  The process of awakening and purification helps emotional states to become more transparent.  It gives us greater access to truth and the means to pursue it.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[In the wake of recent revelations concerning Bernard Madoff and AIG, a nation's consciousness is becoming alert to something it now deems unacceptable. This sense of public outrage is due both to the movement into greater light of what was formerly hidden, and also to a value-shift that is creating a new perspective concerning what may be tolerated.  This shift in consciousness is being brought about by forces of light that are affecting both individual consciousness as well as the policy and practices of governments.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[The soul listens. It cannot help but listen since it is part of a greater whole which is the Soul of the Universe that is God, Spirit, or the One. It listens for the inner Voice that resonates with the path of truth and light that is the way of the highest. It follows this way because it is its nature to do so, without conflict, without doubt, without a separated wish to act differently out of its own intrinsic desires.]]></description>

<description><![CDATA[At a time of great intensity in life, when there are countless pressures externally and also pressures from within to meet diverse and sometimes conflicting goals, it is often hard to take time for the sacred.

<description><![CDATA[There is a great need for spiritual anchoring in times of turbulence and change. Anchoring in a deeper truth helps us to weather the currents of emotion that pass through us due either to external events that we experience directly, or to taking in the reactions of others to these events.     Sometimes our own fears are all that seems present to us in our consciousness, and sometimes it is hard to distinguish what is our own and what belongs to the collective consciousness that we are part of.]]></description>
