Transforming Emotions: Lessons from the Fire

Sometimes a lesson takes the long way around to comprehension. This one began as the completion of the teaching on Balance and Harmony. You might be thinking, ‘Oh no, not more of this!’ Hopefully if you continue reading you will find a heart touching conclusion to the concept that has to do with this image.

The lesson began with the idea of people verbally fighting with each other and yelling trying to speak louder and force the other person to hear and believe as they do. It could escalate as far as fighting and even wars between countries. The idea of ‘fighting fire with fire’. I was reminded that this concept of a backfire, only works in fire fighting and not in conversation or relationships. It may help to create balance in a fire fight by creating a space without fuel for the fire to continue, but in relationships it only closes the ears and mind to hearing and understanding the words of the other person.

Thoth took me on a quick lesson in alchemy. Alchemy is the process whereby something is taken from one state of existence to another through the application of a chemical process. Most think of changing base metal into gold when they hear the word Alchemy but to the Alchemist, true gold is when we change our human consciousness into a crystalline Ascended state of Being.

Fire is a trasformative energy. It is a creates a chemcial process whereby wood, water, and metal can be changed in form and composition to another state of being. However, even though this works on the physical level to apply fire to a mental or emotional situation does change it but usually not for the better. To apply fire or strong opinionated energy to an emotional exchange only creates an imbalance and more disharmony. When our emotions are not in balance we don’t hear or open our mind to the words being spoken by another, when they are spoken in a firey or heated manner of emotional turmoil with the need to be heard as right. The only solution in a heated moment of exchange is to walk away. This will not put out the fire, for the embers will lie within unless one does the inner work to search through and understand the inner triggers and beliefs that caused the flames of energy they emitted and transform and release these causes. If not the embers will await another trigger in which to blaze forth into a burning fire of confrontation. When we have done the inner work to see what is our trigger and transform it, interestingly enough the Violet Flame is the Divine energy of tranformation, but it doesn’t burn or intensity our emotions and thoughts it transforms them into a higher state of peace, balance and harmony.

There is also the fire of love. It can be a burning lust or an encompassing compassion and caring for others. The burning lust will exist as long as the current fuel that sparked it is present, and when that changes, it will burn out and the participants will separate unless they have developed the higher aspect of love which is compassion and caring for all life.

I was guided to read a few pages in a book this morning called Sacred Messages of Shamanic Africa. The image on this page is a representation of the message. The group of people had been on a magical safari to explore and see the White Lions of Africa. These Lions represent a new possibility for Humanity. They were on the last day of their journey and as the day came to a close they went out on the jeep for one more glimpse of the beautiful lions. They had driven for hours without a sighting. The driver decided that it was not going to happen and suggested they call it a day. However, the group decided to get out and sit down in meditation to give thanks to the lions for the sightings they had and for the time and energy of connecting with them. The group believed that the lions were connected to the star Sirius . So they sat in mediation looking up at Sirius and giving thanks with open hearts. When the lady leading the meditation opened her eyes and sitting in front of the jeep was a male white lion looking up at the sky. She nudged the person next to her to llook. As they watched in awe another lion joined the first. After a few minutes the lions left and their journey was complete.Sirius, the lions responded to the calm emotion of love and joined them in their meditation.

In manifestation we learn this same concept that when we chase something we create an energy of lack that pushes away that which we desire. However, when we clear our energy and raiser our vibration to match that for which we desire, it opens a portal to the quantum field of manifestation and that which we desire is drawn to us, just like the lions.

I was shown how sometimes when Spirit share information with me, new thoughts or insights for which I don’t have the complete picture of understanding, it sparks my mental/ego mind to go searching for facts. Which while helpful to my rational mind, does not give me the higher perspective of understanding. Sometimes, it takes many pieces and years before I can see the whole picture from a higher perspective, because I need to grow spiritually through clearing and raising my vibration to match the level of energy of the information of concept. Thus the fire of my mind can trigger my emotions and I go off in a direction which is away from where spirit wants me to be focusing.

Spirit uses the fire of tranformation to clear energies and to help us to grow spriitually. It is not a burning fire that stirs our emotions but a quieting and comforting energy that opens our hearts and aligns our minds and emotions to a higher energy and perspective.

So in conclusion, Thoth says to remember the lion when we find our emotions stirring to where we may speak in an unbalanced stay that brings disharmony instead of harmony between ourselves and others. In our zest to convince another that our beliefs and insights are right over theirs we just might miss the ‘lion’ we are seeking.

In conclusion to our teaching on balance and harmony is the following thought.

Yesterday the quote was to be aware that we don’t allow ‘today’s soul does not purpose to become tomorrow’s ego agenda.’ Don’t let the fire and zest of our emotions push away that which we originally envisioned. When we try to force another we are attempting to take away or nullify their right to their choices and free will. In this we simply create a karmic imbalace that we have to clear for ourselves. When we stop and mindfully ask for direction and guidance we will find the higher path of the open heart that draws the lion of our desire to us.

Blessings along you journey.

Trusting Your Inner Guidance: Letting Go of Doubt

Doubt the long and winding road.

I awoke from a dream this morning knowing I had to write about something I heard yesterday. The connection between the dream and what I heard yesterday will become clear as I go along.

In the dream I was in a car with a group of people and we were trying to get to work and back home to where we began our journey. Yet, we were living in an area of great beauty of which we were reminded as the road we traveled passed the ocean view and proceeded into the long and winding road through hills and overgrown vegetation which we couldn’t see beyond. At times the road disappeared or was blocked and we had to search other ways to move forward.

To me as I write this the road home is our spiritual journey. Often we look to the past or are trapped in our beliefs and thoughts by past events in our lives that hinder us from see the beauty of NOW, where we are in our lives so that we can enjoy and be joyful in how far we have come along our path. Instead we cling to the old, the past and it limits our vision and our way forward. Sometimes, it takes us off the path and we have to seek help from others, guides to find our way back to the path.

When we return to the path, will we choose to continue as we have been doing , consttantly looking back or seek to enjoy the beauty of NOW and what we have accomplished. In this we are transforming our beliefs and moving forward with clear vision of our work and path.

I thank Ascended Master Thoth for this dream/vision for it helped me to bring together the pieces.

Yesterday, I was taking a QHHT class that is Quantum Healing Hypnosis Technique. In this session they were sharing a session with a person’s Subconscious/Higher Self in which they were very personable and engaging, and what they shared could have been the words from my own guides. Of course all life being one, in essence that is kind of what was happening. For in this session they shared it had taken a year for them to get her to have a session with Delores Cannon so that they could share the information the person wanted and needed with her. I awoke this morning and felt like Thoth had been nudging me to take this course to hear this session.

In QHHT a person is taken down to the THETA state of consciousness to see the most appropriate past life to answer their question as to what is the cause of their physical and/or emotional problem that is blocking them in their life. After seeing the past life, they are then taken to connect with their Subconscious/Higher Self that speaks through them to share what is needed to heal if truly desire to be healed. We have to realize that sometimes a person gains benefit or identity through the problem or illness. The choice to heal or transform is always ours.

Anyway, the point that struck me, is that the person was stuck in self doubt about her abilities. She wondered if she was truly hearing or making them up. The wisdom she had gained, she wondered if with all the teachers and books in the world, would it be of value or benefit to share what she knew. Could she really help others to heal and connect with their inner spirit.

I had to smile as her Subconscious spoke for that is what my guides have been saying to me. It doesn’t matter if there are 1 million books on a subject. My unique perspective may be exactly what 1 or 1 million people needed to hear to shift their perspective and reconnect. The struggles and experiences of my life written in a book may help another to see something of themselves and help them to shift. Just like listening to this one session brought benefit to me. Thoth is grinning widely as I write this and nodding his head.

I have been guided in the last few months to healing modalities that involve not me doing hands on healing but helping ones to clear and balance their energy bodies to heal their physical themselves. I have been nugged to finish writing the books I have been working upon some for years. I even came across one I wrote 20 years ago, and began to hear to update and publish it.

So the session of the training spoke to me, and I think to many of us about our self doubts about our abilities and if in this plethora of internet teachings and books if there is a need for us. YES THERE IS !! That is what I am hearing shouted at me as I write this. Don’t let the doubts of our past beliefs and experiences cause us to believe we don’t truly have the beauty and wisdom that is needed in this world. Live in the NOW, breath in the beauty all around you. The past does not define us, let it go and transform it with the violet flame and bring in the light of truth.

You are loved. Your are valued. You are needed and so are the gifts and wisdom you have. If you only touch one person in this world you have made a difference. TRUST in yourself and let go of doubt. Trust the inner voice and guidance it is real. Know that what you are receiving is of value to you and the world. If we focus in the Now and trust in our inner guidance, the brambles and hills that block our view and our path forward will disappear, for they are of our own creation. Listen to the inner guidance it is showing us the easiest path forward.

Embrace the beauty of the view from Now and Being aligned to your inner truth and Light. I hear my cheering squad on the other side saying – HALLELUJAH she finally gets it. So, today I am going to pick up the books and begin the process of completing them.

I hope this helped someone. It certainly helped me.

Navigating the Challenges of Empathy

Just when I think I have it the energies and emotions of the world coming at me under control, another image of an abused or dying animal pops up. Perhaps it is the image of a homeless or the tragedy of people who have lost their homes to a natural disaster.

There is so much pain and suffering in the world. The life of empaths are hard, because we feel the pain of others. It requires a lot of effort to stay in compassion for others without allowing the energies of pain they feel to come flooding into us.

Some may think this makes us weak, and yet I would rather be able to have empathy for the pain and suffering for it keeps me aware of where energy is needed to help lift the lower energies, rather than be so focused on myself, that I judge the pain and suffering of others as not being worthy of my compassion.

It is a delicate balance that requires mindfulness to see others in need, care about them and not get caught up in the emotional turmoil they are experiencing and the pain. It is about learning to connect to our higher self, and the higher perspective to see what is the best way to help in this situation.

When we are living in heart and mind coherence, it means that our soul which connects through our higher heart to guide us can send us the highest possible actions and solutions in any situation. Then we can see what needs to be done on the physical level to complete that process.

Compassion and inner guidance of a higher perspective are the key to mentally, emotionally, spiritually and physically staying in balance and acting from this place instead of reacting to the emotions or energies of the situation. It is a process and requires us to take responsibility for our thoughts, words and deeds. It requires us to learn to move into our heart to seek the highest solution to any challenge. From here the Universe can work through us for the greatest good of all life.

Empathy is a wonderful gift in making us aware that someone or something around us is out of balance and in need of help. Then we can go into our heart, connect with them from a higher soul perspective to give the care and service that will best help them in this situation. Whether this is a person or an animal, it is not good to act from an emotional level of pain and turmoil. Once you feel it move up and in and you will find the greater part.

I hope this helps some of the empaths, who are having a hard time right now. I know it isn’t always an easy gift to handle, but it is a gift to help you to be of service in this world. You are loved, and you are needed, in this world of hatred, anger. judgment and violence, don’t let them take away your joy in living and connecting with others.

Quan Yin the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion: ‘Compassion Dear Ones is about recognizing that we are all part of the same whole. Each person is living and acting in accordance to that which they know and believe to be true. If one is aware that what they are doing is not of the highest choice, they will seek to act accordingly. Forgiveness, begins within you. Another cannot hurt you unless you allow them to do so. The pain you experience from their words or actions are your reaction to them based on your beliefs and fears. See them as a mirror, reflecting that which is within you still that reacts and needs to be released. Then choose to do so. Forgive yourself for reacting, and forgive them for their actions so that you can be free. Have compassion for them as they are like yourself journeying upon their path, and you must allow them as you want to be allowed to do so along your path. Release any old feelings of hurt and resentment and know that when you are free, what another says and does can no longer hurt you for there is nothing within you to react. Then you will find they stop trying. As to the pain of war, neglect, violence and abuse, it is not something that you alone can correct in the world. You can only do your part by helping to ease the pain and suffering of ones when you are aware, without judging them or the situation. You can send the light and protection of the higher realms to be in the situation to help ease the energies, transform and lift them up. When enough people do the same, a great transformation can occur. We are not responsible for the actions of another, only for our actions and reactions. You are aware as an empath of the pain of others in order to be of Service. However, you cannot serve when you go down to the level of pain they are experiencing, you must bring in a higher love, compassion and understanding in a balanced state to help them to ease their pain mentally, emotionally, and physically. Do what you can, when you are made aware, from this place of love within you. I Am Quan Yin
