Sometimes you feel guided to do something and share about it, even though it may not be easy. It truly helps when signs come reminding you that you are on the right track.
Today was my designated day to weed, prune and trim the flowers, plants and garden. It had rained last night a rarity at this time of year where I live, but for my task a blessing. It made the weeds come out easily and the sticky plants I trimmed, did not clog my clippers because of the moisture on them, washed the stickiness away. The temperature was perfect and I set about my task.
As I was clipping away and pulling the weeds, thankfully today the bending over was not hurting my legs and back, as it sometimes does. One of the bodily symptoms, one can experience as they grow older. I love my flower and garden. I like working in the earth, seeing the plants grow and produce their vegetables and fruit. I love to see the beautiful array of colors of the many flowers. Please if you don’t like gardening stay with me for there is a spiritual message here.
As much as I love my gardens, and enjoy the quiet moments sitting, relaxing and enjoying the healing energies of nature, there are weeds to be pulled. WHY? Because if you don’t pull them they will overwhelm the flowers and vegetable plants and take their nourishment and cause them to die. So weeds need to be pulled. Now in the physical world we can hire someone, if we have the extra money, to do this for us so all we have to do is enjoy and not do the hard part of the process. However, in the spiritual world it doesn’t work that way.
In order to grow spiritually we have to examine, release and transform those thoughts, beliefs and energies which are old, and will not bring us forth into a higher energy and light of existence. We can’t hire another to do this for us. As part of the Creator, energies are coming to us to help us with this process but we must have made the changes and choices which open us to them and to be able to utilize them. There are Angels, Light Beings, and many other higher dimensional Beings who are aligned to the Creator Source who are around us and wanting to help us to do this weeding and pruning. However, we must be aware enough to ask for their help. They can then help us to clear the energies, but we must make the choice and effort to maintain this clarity and move forward to even more clarity and growth. It is like a plow can make rows in the ground, but you have to make the effort to actually put seeds in the ground for something to grow.
I don’t like to pull weeds on the physical or spiritually level. It requires effort. Today when I came in from weeding I found this posting by Lilian Varga,of Gifted-Awakened-Light Workers
As I said, I don’t like to pull weeds, but I love it when I can sit back and look at my garden all happy and clean. I was reminded as I said in my post yesterday that I find myself in a period of much weeding spiritually. I have been reminded in the last few days that many of us are going through the same process. It can be daunting as we try to go about our work life, home life and to face these challenges and be able to do them with grace.
There are 12 pillars of spirit that we need to build within ourselves. These correlate to the 12 chakra system we must clear and activated and the 12 strands of DNA. As I said I will be looking at these in some of the next postings, I wanted to mention the energies of these pillars.
TRUTH – WISDOM – UNCONDITIONAL LOVE – DIVINE WILL /ONENESS – INTEGRITY – HONESTY/RESPONSIBILITY – MERCY/COMPASSION – HUMILITY – COURAGE – PEACE (BALANCE/HARMONY) – BEAUTY (RADIANT LIGHT)-SELF DISCIPLINE/MASTERY
The weeds we will have to pull are the self limiting beliefs we hold about these concepts. When these weeds are pulled and the faded blossoms pruned, it gives space for new flowers to bloom. These flowers are even more beautiful, because they are not overshadowed and strangled by the faded blossoms or the weeds. Sometimes weeds have flowers and can appear beautiful to our eyes, while underneath they are strangling the life out of the plant we are trying to grow.
Truth – a white lie, it doesn’t hurt anyone. Yet, when we lie, we have to remember that lie/untruth so that if the conversation occurs again we tell the same story. Perhaps it is better to not say anything, simply say, ” I would rather not comment if asked to speak.” It might upset the person in the moment, but unless you can tell the truth (not your relative truth) but the Divine Truth it is better to say nothing. What is relative truth? Divine Truth is of the Oneness of Universal mind and Creation, the Laws of Creation aligned to the Divine Will and Divine Plan of Creator Source. Every thing else is relative Truth.
We can only know Divine Truth when we are aligned to our Soul and I AM Presence and they are directing our thoughts, words and deeds. We do not give up anything of ourselves to come into alignment to the Divine Will with our I AM Presence and Soul, we gain so much more than we can ever imagine in the Infinite Wisdom, Abundance and Expansion of the Truth of Creation. This means that all else we believe to be truth until we come into Oneness and alignment is realtive to our level of clarity of spiritual growth.
Theses truths are beliefs we hold based upon what we are taught is right in our life, and our experiences. This is a brief explanation of the concept, but my point being. It might seem that our relative truth is beautiful, or that a white lie creates an easy situation for the moment, like the flowers of a weed. Yet, eventually the white lie can catch up to us and cause even more problems and the relative truth can keep us from being free to be all that we can be.
Unconditional love is like a beautiful flower, that uplifts our spirits and brings joy and happiness into the life of the one beholding its beauty. Few people on earth have experienced unconditional love. From the time we are born we are taught the reward and punishment system to train/domesticate us into the peopl that our parents, family and people in authority believe we should be and how we should believe and act. I am not saying it is wrong to cut and enjoy flowers, for they bring joy and beauty into our life space. The same as cutting a tree for Christmas. I am saying it is a choice to alter the natural flow of the life of the plant. Each flower, tree, and plant has an elemental spirit which watches over it. It is honorable to state your desires and thank the spirit who watches over the plant. This allows the spirit to withdraw any energy it needs or wants to do. In doing so you are moving more aligned to spirit and honoring the nature spirits and the life energy of the Creator which feeds it with water, nutrients and light which have been removed.
Now it has but the water in the vase, and any supplement you have added to the water to keep it alive for awhile and then to be discarded, when it no longer pleases your eyes. Yes, it will die if we leave it attached to the plant and at that point we will have to prune it to keep the plant healthy. However, in this process it completes its natural cycle. However, it is honorable to care for them by telling the flowers how beautiful they are daily as you have them in your home. Change their water every few days, wipe the slimy off the stems, and remove lower leaves that may get into the water, and trim an inch or so off the bottom. They will last longer and under your loving care.
Parents train us to be a part of the society in which they exist. We learn that love is about ones fulfilling a need we have and obeying the rules. We are drawn to something within another that we find attractive and want to have a relationship. Usually this is a sexual attraction part of the animal instincts of the form to reproduce the species. This attraction is not love, and when the attraction fades usually the relationship does also, unless the people have developed shared interests, caring and committment. We search for another who can fill the empty spots within us, a yearning of feeling incomplete.
We try to make this person fit into our concept of what we need, instead of allowing them to be themselves, and thus conflict arises. We have been attempting to prune the buds of their being which we don’t like instead of looking within at what is missing within ourselves and how we can prune and fertilize ourselves.
In the messages to come we will explore each of the 12 pillars or spiritual aspects which represent our chakra system and DNA, however, this was about the clearing and pruning process we are now experiencing which must occur within us. We can’t hire another to do this for us. Ones can help us if we ask, to bring in energies to help us clear and activate, but it is up to us to make sure we transform the energies and are self disciplined to keep them clear.
As I contemplated these thoughts, I felt better, I know I have more to go and I don’t always accomplish clearing on the first try. Sometimes we have built walls or we have multiple layers like the skins of an onion that have built up around an energy or belief within us that need to be taken one layer or brick at a time. I took my tools back to the shed and locked the door.
As I turned to walk to the house a white feather fell from the sky. It wasn’t a small feather but about 8 inches long. I looked up to the sky and no birds were around, I looked in the trees and they were empty. I knew it was a gift from the angels. As I came in and opened my computer there was a posting by Diana Cooper
Angel Signs
Recently the most beautiful white feathers keep appearing in front of me at welcome moments, reminding me that the angels are so very close during these difficult times. Even when things seem very challenging, they send messages to remind us to take heart.
Synchronicity is wonderful. To have so much affirmed of what you are feeling and receiving so quickly. It makes it all worthwhile.
So when the weeding, pruning and trimming comes up in your life. Think as you look at each weed, and prepare to pull it how beautiful your garden will be. You are the gardner of your life. You make the choices which make it beautiful and full of beauty, light and peace, or full of weeds, pain, fear and woe.
I do offer a reading about help on where you are on your spiritual path if you feel drawn.
