Episode 47 Blog Experiencing
Energy
One of the most
delightful experiences of body/form is to experience one’s senses, to feel,
hear, see, touch, smell and to “know” things. The fun comes in when you can
feel, hear, see, touch, smell, and “know” things that have some sort of an energy
signature of awareness and not so much necessarily solid in form, like ghosts
or angels or fairies and nature devas.
Maybe you are
like me and have been aware of different energies since an early age. My friends
and I can see much with our inner eye, dead people for instance. Or maybe you
have a history of feeling energies that were identifiable in some way, but you
could not see them. You could feel them either or both physically and
emotionally. I have symbols that show up in different ways to my inner eye. You
might have a sense of Déjà vu often, or knowing before the phone rings, that
sort of thing. It is entertaining in my realm and something one can look
forward to.
All of it at
times was thrilling, or maybe alarming depending on who I was at the time and
the situation. It was just a thing that was part of me, usually unexpected but I
was open to it all. I have had many different experiences over the years, including
channeling to running healing energy through my hands. My experiences were most
often in a reality of being helpful, user friendly and not about the battle of
good/evil that it can be for many. I was not alarmed and judging what I was
witnessing as bad. There was no horror or fear, only Grace at times and neutral
the rest. But dealing with people’s projections takes stamina and centeredness
and neutral terrain within.
Of course, when
I was young, I was not always clear or understanding about boundaries and how
energy works. I got into metaphysical studies in my early 20’s when I realized
it was a part of my life. I wondered how someone could feel” bad” or unsettling
in some way to me and I felt “bad”. I have felt attacked and then at times
used. And, along the way I was perhaps clumsy with others in their feelings I
am sure.
We are all
sensory creatures with bandwidths of sensation that extend beyond our human
limits into our metaphysical range. BEing energetically sensitive is easier
when you learn one’s own nature and develop energy hygiene. When you are
wanting to help another, understanding energy and potential dynamics is
essential to successful work. There needs to be respect for how you are both
organized within. You can realize that energy can take any form and like a
blade be two sided, and due to the bias of observation, positive or negative.
When in itself it is neither, just a manifestation of projection.
We all
experience energy differently and unique to the individual so there are
guidelines to consider and frameworks to embody that make life as an energetic
being delightful and rewarding. All too often people can feel overwhelmed or
done in by the energies around and in them. And most of the time people are not
in conscious awareness of the energies around them that are affecting in
some way, positive and negative unless it is brought to their attention.
All
information, life, stuff, fits within the core of Consciousness so it can be
interacted with. It doesn’t matter if it is in the past, the future, the
cosmos, your neighbor. Energetic dynamics abound. It just depends on your
internal settings of sensitivity, tolerance, and story line which determine your
reality settings and what you consider real and not real, possible, not
possible.
Everything is vibrational and
informational in nature when it is reduced to its essence. Energy is
vibrational and can clean, clear, protect, heal, destroy. It provides us with intuition
of the present and organizational in terms of time as past lives and the precognitive
of the seer of future events. It connects us with other energetic awareness of
forms corporeal and incorporeal such as angels and other life forms. It
resonates with all elements of living matter such as crystals and plants and
animal life and our space around us as in feng shui and the senses that track
surroundings. Everything living is
registering information and is connected.
Energy is found in the known and
unknown, the manifested and unmanifested, our notions of what are real and not
real. Energy does not care what you think, it only reacts and responds and
forms and develops into patterns of vibrations that we sense and interpret and
experience as the habituated thought and behavior. Again, and again, time after
time. Unless, some thing happens in our rule set to instigate change, shift, in
the moment.
For me, when I
work with clients or students it is about appreciating their references and how
they are helpful or not to them, not to me. That is what being energetically
clear, neutral, to me is about. I have no agenda to push, just clarity for the often-felt
confusion that is present which is what our issues most often are, confusion between mind
and heart usually.
I am an empath,
an energy empath. I feel energy in people, places, things, words, etc. in my
body. We all do in some way, to some degree. It defines me. These days I look
to benefit from all my trainings, experiences and awareness to “feel things
from within my field” and not so much in my body or in attached manner. I
realize that long ago I made the choice to embody this time, in this way to
explore Life within the body/form and to explore BEing. It has taken me many
places.
We all have our
answers inside of us and where we have a sense of out there, somewhere,
sometimes so buried, so wrapped up in a sense of lost that it is helpful to
have another find the link. We share in this, this wonderful sense and
experience we call BEing.
It is quite a
journey of enlightenment that we are sharing.

A Nudge Good For Any Day of The Week
Friday’s Nudge:
There are no accidents
If it's appeared on your life’s radar, this is why: to teach you that dreams come true; to reveal that you have the power to fix what's broken and heal what hurts; to catapult you beyond seeing with just your physical senses; and to lift the veils that have kept you from seeing that you're already the person you dreamed you'd become.
And believe me, that was one heck of a dream.
Tallyho,
The Universe
My friend Mari Hall posted this on her facebook page the other day. She is the founding director of the International Assoc. of Reiki and always has wonderful daily postings. It must have been last Friday. I saw it yesterday. It is a wonderful directional marker in Consciousness. it is a nudge that is good for any day of the week.
Where one is, is here. Sometimes you don't know how you got here but you find yourself here. And, sometimes, you know quite well how you got here. And, you don't always feel good about it.
But here is where you are. Acceptance is helpful. Trust is implicit.
You are in an individual body you call Self, Me and I within a mindset observing that body called Self, Me and I. How mind is formed shapes how you view your body, here, in this moment.
It is a moment. To be used however you want. Acceptance is helpful. Trust is implicit.
Are you conflicted? Are you in denial? Are you , are you, are you....? Are you okay? Are you aware of the wonder to be found in being alive, in BEing in formed sensory awareness that registers not only wonder but the lack of, as pain? It can be uphill or downhill from here.
Whatever, however you view this moment to BE it is that and not, as it is only illusion from your mind story. Acceptance is helpful. Trust is implicit.
No body wants pain or suffering but we do it so well, so easily when we allow it to be in our formed reality. We can learn how to be comfortable with being uncomfortable. It can hold meaning of many different nuances. It is not the final version but only part of the version, the illusion we are running, in and often from.
If you are in judgement of this moment, it is only that, a discernment of the moment. If is is part of a judgement you are holding about life in general and yours in particular it is set in stone, carved deeply. Acceptance is helpful. Trust is implicit.
All of this is about your Core Essence choosing to interact as you in your body/form. What your Core Essence is choosing this go-around to enjoy about Enlightenment. Maybe this is why we seem to enjoy our misery. Because from the perspective of Consciousness all is to be enjoyed for the sheer sense of feeling as part of the spectrum. Consciousness is. It reflects us and is much more. For it holds both the manifested and unmanifested, the known and Unknown, the real and not real. So, at any one moment both are available to us to engage as and with. We are exploring and utilizing contrast in the spectrum of Life, of BEing in being alive.
All our moments have the meaning we give them. If there is no need to validate our moments in our stories what is possible? Is our moment one of many like a faceted jewel, catching the light as we turn it and different at every perspective, always beautiful no matter the refraction?
Nudge, nudge, wink, wink.

Return to Wholeness Using Your Wheel of Truth with Lynn Andrews
Every life is like a wheel, encompassing spokes that go in all directions in relation to the center hub. Too often you can feel uncomfortable as your wheel turns, aware of only a few spokes and perhaps missing some so our wheel is not stable and strong. Joining Janet is Lynn V, Andrews, bestselling author of the 21 books of the Medicine Woman series. We are the hub, the center of our wheel, our universe. She will be sharing about the ageless tools we can use to feel honestly and bring our wheels into balance, harmony, and wholeness.

JIE Episode 46/The Power in a Deck of Cards
Podcast releasing Tuesday Oct 6, 2020
Ep 46 Blog The Power in a Deck of Cards
There are many ways to engage wisdom in the world. One way can be as simple as a deck of cards. I am not talking about those you will find at the blackjack table and such. That is about a different kind of wisdom.
I am talking about the kind that serve as empowered objects
to assist us on our journeys of enlightenment.
What decks you may be drawn to is because something in you
resonates to it, just like the other things in your life. What appeals will be
unique to you and that is good. The deck may call up old memories, in this time
or another or it can serve to awaken and develop new sensory ranges in you.
There are more different decks of cards to play with and
enjoy than ever before. Remember it is always about enjoyment. Encode awareness
with enjoyment and those things that we each deal with over the course of our
lives get easier.
I tend to enjoy decks that reflect different bodies of
knowledge and thoughts. What they have in common is they all reflect a
lightness of being about them for me. Could be Angel cards, Messages from the
Universe, Creative Actions, Thought of the Day, different Abraham decks, BEing
Present, What to be grateful for, The Power Deck and the Sacred Inner Oracle
cards. All kinds of decks. I even have a children’s deck of Disney heroines
that represent for me, different shades of feminine models. I think I have 16
decks out on my console to be enjoyed. I use them together, separately, in
conjunction depending on the occasion. Sometimes I draw one card, sometimes
combinations, just depends. I use different spreads at times. When working with
another I might tend to draw from a certain deck, what ever is showing up in
that moment.
For me they are all powerful as I hold them to be powerful
tools of awareness. I have made up cards out of books of knowledge at times for
they represent different ways of embracing energy functions and dynamics. I see
them as extensions of wisdom in easy clear patterns of information sometimes
just out of reach that can gain and guide my attention. I can spend a fleeting
moment on my way out the door or I can sit with them and play in awareness.
They can be a focus of meditation and my day’s orientation. They serve me at my
whim and discretion, just waiting.
I have empowered them to serve me. I respect them. I like
the feel of them in my hands. They connect and open me up to avenues of modalities
and teachings beyond my personal knowledge and experience. They represent the
expanded interactions of human senses, out beyond. They connect with our core awareness,
our intuitive range and capacity. They can bring into focus what is present,
what was past, what to be aware of, what the future is open to and where I am
right in this moment. They help bring into the immediate what is not always
right in one’s face in that moment.
If I am drawing cards for another not present, I sit and
let them be present in my minds eye. If I hand you the cards, we are in a state
of respect for will come to pass. I am not flippant with them though the
recipient might initially hold that viewpoint. I always respect what comes up
as I know it is truth in that moment even if it is out of the individual’s
awareness and liking.
I allow my wisdom to speak in my approach and I honor that.
Not my attachment, my wisdom. Cards are fun for me and embody truths in our
actions and thoughts and illusions, mostly of our illusions. For if one is not liking what is showing up, we
are in our illusions that are blinding us.
They bring one back to center.

What is Different Today From Yesterday?
My birthday was last Friday. I am now 66 years old. What a difference a day can make. Because having reached this point in my life is a reward to be treasured. My journey with Consciousness Technologies started when I was 50 and dying. These years of rethinking have made all the difference. When I was 65 I was impressed to have enjoyed the reality of 65 and now, a couple days later I am in a new reality, if I let myself move into it.
Because 65 had plenty of challenges in its reality, it is easy to stay attached to it, even if I don't want to. Any stirred up emotion is powerful and can hold us in its thrall. This last year has opened up new normals in awareness that can benefit all of us.
I want my now to be different but unless I allow myself to reorient, my now will be just a continuance of what was, leading to a predictable uncertain future. Sometimes it might be hard to tell when something is degrading, as in aging and not dissolving as into something wonderful as ageless.
At this age I know this better than I did when I was younger: Shifting skill sets and priorities and interests do not have to be encoded as losses collecting and getting older and worn out. Our bodyforms have a wonderful ability to use different systems to help when one system might become stressed more than another.
It can be about wisdom being recognized, present and utilized.
Our stories of being in a form are powerful. The realities we can sometimes be in relation to, like disease and mayhem and tragedy can run us ragged. So we stop. Choose to stop. Realize what we have aligned ourselves with and what it would be like for them to ease within our hearts. It is okay to fulfill destinies in our stories of bodyform. It is okay to have no answers or justice or fairness as much as it is okay to have answers and justice and fairness. All have roles to play.
Sometimes we think love hurts. Sometimes those we love do not know what love is or how to love back. What we are holding as love is wound not love. For love does not ever hurt. It may only be for a moment or it may be for a lifetime or many lifetimes as it beyond space and time. It is.
Sounds simple to state. To do? Maybe not so simple. For Life can offer complexity, which is built upon a whole lot of simple. So do not do. Just BE. Accept you are worthy without doing.
Thanks to all of you who have helped me in these last 5 weeks with my health concerns. It was love tenfold plus to be embodied. In all the clamor that our daily lives have been subjected to, you made time to lend not a helping hand but a helping heart. I appreciate it very much and know I am better for it in all the variables my life encompasses.
Let me share this moment with you as a thank you. Access your sense of the Infinite with me.
Notice your breathing. Just breathe. Do not make it anything special because every breath is already special. Breathe and now notice your heartbeat. Be aware that you have added it to your breathing now. Allow them to sync up. Feel your awareness of your core essence sheltered in your breath partner with your body's form in your heart's beat. You are alive. You are BEing alive.
Now let. Let what was yesterday be yesterday. Let all that rises up in you and says that you need to hold on to yesterday just BE. Do not judge, do not react. Just be. Love it like the child's attachment to the moment. Something happens. They may cry to release the energy. And then, they stop and are on to the next thing forgetting what was so important just a moment ago. Know that what was, was. Know that what is, is. Know that what will be is free to BE, whatever that may BE.
Just BE Love no matter what you feel.
Just BE Kind to those different looking.
Just BE Open to possibilities.
Just BE Curious about your world and what you find there.
Just BE Respectful as the given. .
Just BE Appreciative for having reached this moment and what this moment holds for you.
Just BE Emotionally warm to those who challenge you.
Just BE Aware that challenges exercise us, form us, bring us into awareness of what our biases are.
Just BE No matter what you are told, what you hear, what you judge to be your truth.
This is my reality of 66. May seem like my reality of 65 but since I experience evolution as active transcendent reality something is different.
