Hearts Spoken Truth

When the heart speaks the throat chakra awakens to speak the hearts truth.

Truth holds power that other words cannot- the hearts truth is always strongest. The freedom found in the vibrations of each syllable is like butterfly wings floating on the breath of the soul. Lifting up to the Divine Source, the truth is made Golden in the Light and heard by the endless ears of the Universe. Suns bend and planets yield to bring this truth to pass. Your truth has now become a co-creator of all that is- one with the Divine Source again. The first words spoken in truth may flow like a raging river or may choke you up as you gather all your strength to speak them free. Once the flow is open your hearts whispers will grow to strong intention that can no longer be denied. Form turns into function. You are now awakening into the truth of the soul.

Unity with Purpose
Lack of strong family of origin connection has left me to find my true roots in self within the Divine connection to Mother Earth and to the Divine Source. No greater gift could be given; no more painful truth could be spoken. We are all one. Old beliefs of strong family ties are wiped away so the foundations of the soul can be formed and created in the Light of the Divine. Holding true to the hearts desires above all third dimensional yearning is key to continue to awaken and fully embody the truth of your essence. Release what you thought was the truth of your birth patterns given to you through your blood line and find what your truth is within as well as above you. The ties of family of origin karma are no longer required of any soul that wishes to be released and relieved of its obligations. This shift is not without a loss but the gain is the connection to your Divine Self and the Divine Source which are one.

Reflection
There is a swirl of energy surrounding us now that is reflecting all that we are as well as giving us the chance to see what is possible within us. Quiet the self within and witness what is possible. The truth is endless in its possibility. The only step that must be taken is to accept that you have no boundaries contained within you. You are as limitless as the Light that shines within your soul and connects you to all that is and will ever be.

Blessing of Understanding and Love!

Heart Bursting Forth

Awakening the heart charka and feeling into the breath of the soul takes courage. You must be willing to reach within and feel the pain of lifetimes as well as the Grace of a thousand Loves that fill your being.

Stop and listen to your heart beat. Its physical function is clear and it does it without thought or effort. When you continue to listen and center you suddenly witness a much deeper feeling here. This is the home of your soul, the birth place of the life of Love. Radiating here is the clear liquid gold of breath, life, love. Circling outward, upward, inward and all spaces in between you can feel this throughout your being if you become quiet and aware.

Awareness of this sacred space allows for the insight of the blocks and pain that may also reside here from group conscious programming, personal experience, and lifetimes of karmic energy stored. This is also where the empathy of your being is felt and takes place. When you sense hurt there for no reason your connecting to something you have attached yourself to through your charka. This is your empathic connection and understanding how it works will assist in clearing old cords or connection points that may have been created long ago and that are no longer needed. Clearing this space of unwanted or unneeded energy will assist in the expanse of the Divine Love that has been created to flow through you. Clearing is as simple as projecting healing light into the open charka and saying words or prayer of release. Clearing can also be a ritual of great care that involves a night of meditation, acknowledgement of each block or cord being removed and a love filled bath of light prior to the rituals end. The point is to be free of what holds you back and weights your heart center down.

Now is the time to truly feel the Love of the Divine and move into the divinity of your souls truth. Whispers of hidden knowledge will become heard and seen through this delicate space your soul occupies. You will grow bold in your willingness to feel compassion and honor all souls on this journey. You will reach out with an open heart and touch the stars with you gift of you. Nothing can be more compassionate than the act of self love to be shared with the universe one breath at a time.

Your time is now. Your life is now. Open, breathe, be free. Enter into the Light of a Lifetime.

The Seed Burst Forth

The Seed has burst forth. 
The first rays of light shine down on the little seedling 
Gifting promise and life~ endless as the breeze.
Rooted with the earth 
Surrounded by the air 
Reaching for the stars 
This was the awakening that was promised. 
Today growth is one of strength and understanding of what is contained within the stems of life.
The leaves of nature move up and out reaching and expanding in Love.



My Personal Story


The process of growing from seed to seedling is complete. The awakening of my soul to a higher level started with a burst of light that literally cracked open at the base of my spine- the root chakra- and shot up through the central meridian for just a few quick seconds. Awakening in the physical can be painful and this moment was no exception. The soul awoke in the physical body and left me in pieces for days. The pain was strong. It was hot then ice cold. I could feel the ripples of this light slowly moving from the central point out into my legs, torso, and then arms and head. I used Reiki to heal the initial pain and shock. Then healthy doses of prayer and requests for Divine Grace for the integration. I quickly sought Alternative forms of Medicine to assist with the realignment of my back and pelvis. More came out of these visits which has healed me even deep in new areas that also needed assistance and healing. My first kundalini initiation was complete.

I was a new small seedling, I was vulnerable and delicate. I needed lots of water and fresh food. Lacking sunlight here in the Pacific Northwest I sought out foods to stimulate me in the ways my body was craving. I grew a stronger connection with my body as my soul filled itself in spaces it had never occupied before. As the physical body issues started to reach the new level of wholeness my body prepare for the next step upward.

I cleansed and detoxed the natural way my body requested and then received the next upgrade needed. I went through a molecular upgrade. At the core of every atom in my body I released the old patterns of eons of lifetimes. Lower vibrational energies that no longer could hold space in a body coming into its new form. This process appears on the outside to be an illness. A cold with a mind of its own. Initially my body told me 72 hours of release. I drank lots of water and stayed focus on the outcome and ignored the physical pain that was burning through me. This process was like the initial wave of light I felt at the awakening. The difference was it burned slowly at each phase of release. It would sit in different spots within and then move like a wave to another space that needed focus. I ran fevers, had chills, and felt exhausted while releasing all I could with all my heart. While sleeping on the 3rd night  I was feeling the lift of energy change within and I made a conscious choice to try and clear the block that has been lodged in my throat chakra my whole life. This healing process was more centralized in the throat and heart chakra areas affecting me physically in my throat and lungs. This release was different and more difficult as I was working on a deep seated karmic energy that wasn't willing to leave quietly. Four days later the pain lifted however I still choke up and feel the energy still attempting to hold on while the cellular level of my body try to dislodge and release. I will continue to work on my healing of this area.

The last of the healing within has been less resistant to change and more flowing of the light- these are the dreams and memories of all my lifetimes contained within. They come to me in the dream state most often although they have also been released in visions and strange memories that are triggered by outside experience in my daily life.

The connection and awakening of the third chakra has grown into a new awareness of food and digestion. I am not able to eat anything that my body doesn't want or crave. This meaning- my brain may want that yummy looking cupcake my daughters are having but my body does not. The disconnect- my programmed ego brain and my digestive system- is a  much needed change. It helps to guide me to what my nutritional needs may be at that moment. Needs that may change as my body continues to shift and grow.



The Flowering


The awakening of a soul in this new paradigm is not always for the faint of heart. It requires Faith and lot of Love for self and the process. I find myself in a new body that seems lighter (I haven't actually lost a pound) and more centered in the knowing. The next steps forward still remain in front of me hiding behind a fog of light. My focus still remains on clearing up any remaining loose ends that still need to be lifted up and out. This is the time for growing strong and understanding what it is that I am awakened to do in this cycle and all the cycles to follow.



We are the Divine Light. We are the Universe. We are LOVE.

Awakening the Soul

Springs Mid-Point~ Beltane

We have reached the mid-point of Spring. Known as the Festival of Beltane in esoteric traditions. It is the celebration of Spring, of early life sprouting from the ground, blessing of the livestock and fields that are yet to be sowed. Fire is the energy most associated with Beltane. Jumping the fire to cleanse the self and soul of any remaining energies from the year past so the summers glow can be entered into with purity.

From this ancient knowledge and wisdom enter into the knowing that within each breath we are celebrating the early sprouting of the seeds of life contained within us. This fire energy is very much alive within us and around us in the Universe. Its cleansing its way through our being and asking only that we bare our soul and witness the clearing with an open heart.

This sacred time is about opening, clearing, healing, and connecting with the Third Chakra also know as the Solar Plexus. The third chakra is located above the navel in the center of the belly and is most associated with the digestive organs. This is the last of the chakras that ask us to find ourselves and honor the self above all others. This is the place where the soul connects with the physical body and outwardly shines its light into the world. Start connecting to this sacred space by asking what makes you the shining star that lights the world? How are you bringing love into the world and what is the world seeing from you? Our 'gut' instincts or intuition can most often be felt in this region when you first start becoming aware of your personal power and knowledge. The Earth Mother energy and the Solar/Universal energy mix and combine to fuel your being in this sacred space contained within you.  When sitting with this energy and feeling from this sacred space you can feel the truth and love that is contained within from all levels of being. We can sense our connection to all that is by simpling being here and breathing in to the rhythms of the earth and soul energy fields combining as one. Its time to concentrate on values. What means the most, what can you shift to make better and how can you honor your self through all this? This is also the last chakra that aligns with the physical body. It rules the digestive systems and all their functions. Think food and cleanse. Water intake and clearing of the systems that keep us in balance and provide us the nutrition we need to maintain homeostasis within the physical body. We can't live without these wonderful organs. Honor them by following their needs. Listen within this sacred place and hear what they are asking for when nutrition is needed. Sit before eating or gathering food from the store or garden and hear what your craving. Your body knows what it needs and listening is the first step in honoring these wonderful organs of strength and vitality. Also notice as you connect if you sense any anger or anxiety in this area. This sacred space is one of personal power so anger or anxiety will accumulate here and when not released properly will manifest into digestive issues on the physical level. The soul lives in the heart but grounds in the Solar Plexus. It is vital we open to its strength. Honor its functions both physically and emotionally.

We have been baring witness to self so we can prepare to enter into the summer where we will start working on our higher chakra systems. We have under gone a Galactic Awakening of the Physical Body in connection to the souls desires. Soon will be the time for a Galactic Awakening of the Soul working and living within the body on the souls terms. For some this summer is a time of Kundalini awakening- a beautiful process of awakening the serpent within. The initiation of a lifetime. For others this summer is about purging and renewal. To continue to utilize the powerful star alignments that are being presented before us this summer we must first complete our own personal physical and emotional cleanse of the first three chakras. Facing the deep rooted issues that are contained within us now helps for the big step forward that will crystallize through the June - July eclipse series and summer solstice crossing point. Our hearts will be broken wide open- yes even more than ever before. Our seeds of life within will begin to bare the fruits of all our labors and we will start to grow in the strength of the Super Galactic Love that radiates with the Summer Solstice Sun.

This is a most sacred time and I am honored beyond words to continue this passage with each of you. We are only as weak and strong as our fears and love allow us to be. Today and through this next phase honor the weak by shining light on the fear and filling it with the endless love that is contained within you and blessed upon you with each and every breath.

Namaste,
Leah

Update on Galactic Awakening

Beloved Souls~
It is with a sad heart that I am writing to tell you I have had to cancel our gathering on Tuesday night as well as all future Galactic Awakening scheduled gatherings. The process of honoring self and the earth while syncing with the solar yearly cycle is very much alive within us. I will continue to blog about it as well as reach out to each of you with topics and possibly even a hosted event where we can just gather and talk if there is interest. Galactic Awakening was created in harmony with the stars and was born through my heart. I deeply believe that the vision we hold of our lotus flower blooming is one piece to this gateway we are crossing. It is my hope that we will continue to walk this path together through our heart connections as the solar year progresses. 
The seed planted within has awakened, the new shoots are taking shape, the warmth of the sun is now shining its light upon the being that is awakening within. Honor Self and Be Love.

Endless Blessings Of Love,

Leah

Into the Darkness

In the dark of night the stars shine the only light on the silhouette of a women. She stands nude at the shore of a dark still body of water. The stillness and quiet all build the anticipation of a dive into this mirror of the stars that is the lake of her soul. This moonless night brings the beginning of her quest for self. Breathe. Inhale, exhale. Splash! The ripples of the water are felt throughout the universe. She has entered the darkness of the soul. The freedom to float into the depths and witness the scars of a lifetime she swims with the Grace of a child coming upon what is needed to be free at each moment. When the darkness suffocates she pushes. When there seems nothing but emptiness she reaches around and calls to the quiet for answers and pleads for understanding. She is never alone. Her heart is full with Love and her soul is calling to her healing with the wisdom of the Universe. Purity is completion. She is all at once engulfed in light and exploding from her the rainbows of light fill this dark pool of emotion and wisdom. Pushed up and forward she floats among the stars to find the lake is but a small puddle left for the new forest of life to grow upon. Crystallized forever is the knowledge that through this Divinity the Truth of the Soul has been found.

Step into the deep pool of the inner darkness. Face this truth contained within and know thyself. At first uncomfortable and confining this deep dive is the first step to being free and awakening the light that is hidden in these depths. Awakening the second chakra requires a face forward into all that is light and dark. The truth is ready to be told and heard. Witnessed and released. At times this place is suffocating in pain and suffering. Push through as you struggle to heal complete that which is due to be released into the purity of light. Contained within this prism of life is your complete rainbow of memories, thoughts, karma, and potential. As you continue to accept this darkness you are free to expose the light into these place that become your strengths. Honoring the dark and understanding the lesson contained within is the step to witnessing the rainbows of light explode and float into this well of deep.

The darkness is a part of us. How deep you go is how deep your willing to heal and honor the true self. Each moment may be different. Each healing may bring joy and tears of pain at the same time. Illuminated within the darkness is the true beauty that can be awakened at the darkest moment. This is the point of honoring this process. To be free of dark and to be filled with light. Witness the light infuse the dark and fill its spaces leaving the darkness a memory of yesterday to be forgotten in time. You cannot have the dark without the light- this is what has been taught. We are the new co-creators of this world. Let us create a place of pure love light within and allow the stars to be the containers that rule the dark. Perhaps in this awakening we are understanding what has always been the universal truth. Now being born through our honest approach to the release of truth- the freedom of the soul.

Love yourself- Dive Deep!
