Empowerment with Sekhmet

One of the main challenges we will all face this year is our attitude to power: do you embrace it; do you avoid it; do you fear it; do you use it wisely and well; do you mis-use it; are you a victim when someone else uses it…

The questions are, of course, endless, but situations will be arising in your life to make you consider a great many of them.

One of the best guides to help you with all this is Sekhmet. She is simply astonishing and, when you work with her, she will show you both the positive and negative ways power is manifesting in your life. But she will always be ready help you move towards embodying power safely, with the intention of harnessing it for the highest good of all. She will also teach you the only way to use it is with great compassion.

So, here is a meditation to get you started!

  • Focus on your breath and release anything which will stop you connecting with Sekhmet in a deep and meaningful way. Set the intention to breathe out your resistance to her and any issues you have around being powerful, letting it all float away on your out breath.
  • When you are ready, ask Sekhmet to join you and, when she arrives, thank her for coming, then take a moment to attune to her energy. You will be aware of it on some level as soon as she is standing in front of you.
  • Now ask her to fill you with her energy – it is a beautiful golden orange colour, if you are visual and can see it. If not, just trust it is there! It will be. Then be aware of her letting it flow to your crown chakra, where it forms a sphere.
  • This sphere radiates her light and power into your aura and your subtle bodies, cleansing them on a deep level before you go any further.
  • When you feel the cleansing is complete, use your in breath to pull the sphere down into your crown chakra and see or sense the bright light clearing the energy centre completely.
  • Now on your in breath, draw the energy down into your central channel, allowing it to clear it.
  • Now on your in breath, draw the energy down into your pelvis, and, as you continue breathing, allow this energy to fill this area in your body.
  • You can at this point, also set an additional intention hat anything disrupted by Sekhmet’s energy is released on your out breath, if you want to.
  • Whatever you do just keep breathing in and allow yourself to become aware of how you feel as the pelvic area fills with Sekhmet’s energy. You will feel stable, secure and completely centred in your body. You may even start to feel powerful as well!
  • Once your pelvis is completely full, you can disconnect, thank Sekhmet for sharing her energy, ground and return. But, here’s a thought – while she is with you, why not talk to her about your attitudes to power. It will always help!

So, all I can say is…. journey well with Sekhmet. Because, as you know, it is always your journey, no one else’s.

Bright Blessings!

ACCEPTING CHANGE WITH LEPIDOLITE

Since change is heading our way like the proverbial freight train… all year really with Jupiter and Saturn  playing together until 21/12/20, and Jupiter and Pluto playing three times during the year…

So, accepting that things will never quite be the same is the only way forward for all of us. Resistance, as they say, is futile!

Happily the key word associated with lepidolite is acceptance. Its energy also facilitates calmness, and trust which happen after you have done the work and reached acceptance. So, it will help you with the whole of your growth process.

The most effective mantras to use when sitting with the stone are:

I AM accepting everything for my highest and greatest good.

or simply:

I accept.

If you find accepting change difficult, or if you don’t mind change but want to help it along, lepidolite is the stone for you.

Just take a look at some of the things it does:

  • It creates calming energy around the heart chakra and within the aura.
  • It allows you to cultivate an appreciation of the present moment rather than obsessing on the past or the future.
  • It makes you focus on what is really important in your life.
  • It supports transformation for the highest good.
  • It holds a calming and soothing energy, which is always useful. It also helps release stress.
  • It supports you while you work on acceptance… on all levels
  • It clears negativity by releasing old emotional thought and behaviour patterns which occur during any change process.
  • It helps you overcome anything that restricts you, that stops you from doing what you really want to do. But please remember that most limitations are self-imposed. You may also need to work on that!
  • Working with lepidolite’s energy allows you to understand that situations can either be perceived as problems or as opportunities to learn and grow.
  • It helps you find a strong emotional centre and allows you to resist being drawn into someone else’s drama healing.
  • It balances the emotions and, when used regularly, it can help you avoid extreme emotional shifts. It is particularly good for moods swings related to excessive worry or fear.

Meditations with Lepidolite

  • Hold a piece of lepidolite in your non-dominant hand. Use your breath to move the stone’s energy from your hand to your shoulder. With the in breath draw it up your arm and with the out breath push it from your shoulder out into the whole of your physical body. Then just let it flow wherever it is need. You can ask it to help you focus on any of the things mentioned in the list above.
  • Place it on your heart chakra with the intention of letting the soothing energy clear the chakra and then let the vibrations create a calm feeling in the centre of your chest. The stone’s energy will flow in, through and around the heart chakra and when you feel your heart is full of this lovely vibration, ask the stone to fill your aura and rest in it for a while.
  • Place it on your solar plexus and let the calming energy fill this chakra. Then when it has cleared any negativity stored in the chakra, ask the stone to clear any negative energy you may have stored in your Four Body system connected to the quality of acceptance – on all levels: physical, mental, emotional and spiritual.

You can also wear lepidolite or just have it somewhere near you to feel the benefit of this gentle but amazing stone. Don’t be fooled by it. Just because it isn’t hugely energetic doesn’t mean it isn’t powerful. It works in very subtle ways! But the results are always fabulous!

Bright Blessings!

Crystal Tip for January

With all the energetic shifts that happened at the end of last year and the ones that are happening at the beginning of this year, you need to be working with a crystal that will help you create something new and exciting once you have re-calibrated your system. I’d recommend chrysocolla.

The key words for this stone are: sacred sound.

It holds both the blue and the green rays so it is expression of the heart through the throat using the voice, which is perfect to bring news thing into existence. You have to speak your thoughts to make them real so they can anchor on the earthplane. And, if your words come straight from the heart they are always incredibly powerful. This lovely stone is absolutely perfect for doing this, especially since it also helps you adjust to situations that are constantly changing…. and there will be a massive amount of that this year!

Chrysocolla does many other wonderful things as well.

  • It will inspire you to start planting many seeds in your life to bring an abundance of new things to fruition.
  • When you use it, it will create a flow of positive energy to help you adapt to changes during any period of transformation.
  • It will help you learn new ways to communicate your heart’s true desires.
  • It helps you release negative thought patterns, which will also help because you can create your new things from a space not contaminated by all the thoughts, feelings and behaviour traits that have held you back in the past.
  • it helps you release of stress, anxiety and fear which will make manifesting anything much easier for you.
  • It’s greatest potential for healing is at the sacral chakra (though it can be used on all of them, especially the heart and throat), which is also useful for manifesting. It helps you realise you are worth it – worth loving, worth respecting, and you are certainly worth a fabulous new life!

You can wear chrysocolla, have it near you at work or at home, meditate with it. It doesn’t matter as long as the vibrational energy of the stone is someone near you and your energy field, though, it will be far more powerful if you sit with the stone and use your conscious intention to work with the energy.

  • You can place it in your non-dominant hand, and set the intention to breathe the energy in through the palm chakra, draw it up to the shoulder and then it can just spread out through the whole of your physical body.
  • You can use it at the sacral chakra to help you start to process of loving yourself, respecting yourself and increasing your opinion of yourself by helping you increase your self-worth and self-esteem.
  • You can use it on your heart to open to giving and receiving love in the most appropriate ways.
  • You can use it on your throat to help improve your self-expression.
  • You can use two pieces – one on the heart and the throat to encourage expressing yourself with love.

For those of you that like to know the qualities of crystals, chrysocolla holds the energy of all these things:

  • Tranquillity and Serenity
  • Wisdom
  • Intuition
  • Patience
  • Nurturing
  • Acceptance
  • Tolerance
  • Unconditional Love
  • Calmness
  • Honesty
  • Hope
  • Gentleness
  • Sensitivity

But, at the end of the day, despite all this information, it is your journey and your interaction with the energy coming from the crystal that is the most important thing.

When you work with it, you will have your own individual adventure and it is likely that it will be different from everyone else’s. Just hold on to the idea that you and the stone are just perfect together, even if you seem to be getting blessings that aren’t included in the list! These are only things that other people have discovered… you may discover something even more magical! Be open to this and don’t try and guide yourself towards only experiencing things that you have read about the stone.

Just go and find a piece of chrysocolla and sit with it for a while and see what happens. It will always help, in practically any situation. I just adore it!

Have fun!

Bright Blessings!

CRYSTAL TIP FOR DECEMBER

Given that this is, ridiculously, the most stressful month of the entire year, here are some quick tips for using the very lovely shungite to make yourself feel a little better.

This completely astonishing stone works by absorbing and then eliminating negative energy from your physical body, aura, and even your surroundings. It is a de-toxifier and stabilizer.

It is also simply amazing and absolutely everyone should have a piece!

  • Place on the base chakra to bring the whole physical body back into alignment. It will also boost your energy levels.
  • Place on any part of your body which feels stressed and leave it there until you feel the tension releasing from the area and you can relax again.
  • Hold a piece in each hand to bring both sides of the body back into balance with each other. Handily this relieves stress and anxiety as well.

Hope this helps you to survive the silly season.

Bright Blessings!

Crystals to Use When You Want to Work with the Christ Consciousness Energy

Rose Quartz – this opens the heart which is always helpful when you start to work with this beautiful golden light. It is the highest frequency of unconditional love available to us on the earthplane and there is a lot of it around on the run up to 12:12. It only intensifies on the day.

Ruby – this is also a heart chakra stone, so it works in the same way as the rose quartz, but since it is also a base chakra stone it will support the physical body during the download process, especially if you are not used to working with high frequency energy. Your body may find it difficult to hold at first. It will allow you to remain comfortable during the download.

Aquamarine – this stone emits the frequency of peace, so it will allow you to be calm and peaceful during the download process.

Moonstone – as the stone of new beginnings working with this before the 12:12 portal will put you in the right energetic space to accept a new beginning after the downloads. That is always helpful … in so many ways!

Amethyst – used at the brow with the intention to clear any psychic debris will allow you to see more clearly and access your intuition on a much deeper level, so you can make the most of all this incoming energy.

Unakite – resonates with the frequency of love and compassion, so this is always a good place to start before you access the Christ Consciousness energy. Using it also helps you to release deep-seated emotional blockages in a slow and gentle way. It gradually clears the negative thought and behaviour patterns that has created them. This will mean the golden Christ Consciousness energy will flow into your system more easily. And, because it is pink and green, it represents the heart chakra in balance.

Shungite – is the very best grounding stone to use during this download process. It also does a massive amount of other beneficial things. But, if you don’t have any, just use the grounding stone of your choice. You need to remain stable when ever you work with any high frequency energy.

But, even after that lovely list of crystals, I would say that the very best stone to use is citrine because it radiates golden light. Some even say this golden light is the light of unity consciousness. You can choose what you believe! But, at the end of the day, this golden light radiating out of your citrine will stimulate the crown chakra, and align it with the seven lower chakras, which makes it much easier for any incoming energy to flow in, through and around you.

Its most amazing gift is the ability to transmute negative energy, turning it into positive energy, so it will clear any part of your Four Body System, or your chakra system.  It does not hold or accumulate negative energy. It dissipates, and grounds it, making it an extremely effective stone to use at any time.

All you have to do is set a very clear intention and let the stone radiate its energy into the place you want to cleanse. It gently dissolves energy blockages and it is particularly good at cleansing the aura of any negative emotional energy you may have generated or picked up during you daily life.

But, as always, if you are drawn to work with any other crystal, go for it. There really is no right or wrong crystal. Only the one you feel is the best one for you and the one which really resonates with what you want to achieve while you are working with it.

All crystals will help you, but the ones listed above work in specific ways which will be beneficial to working with the incoming energy of the portal. You choose what you feel is best for you!

Have fun with any stone you decide to play with! Or you could, of course, play with them all by building a mandala with all of them and sitting with the combined energy. It would be a fabulous experience!

If you want to do some work on the day of the download there are a few places left at the workshop on 12th December. It is £15 and starts at 7p.m. For more details or to book a place, just use the email address shown below.

Bright Blessings!

Preparing for the12:12 Portal with Citrine

Simple Meditations with Citrine

Base Chakra – to support your physical body and help it to hold high frequency energy before the download.

  • Place a citrine at your base chakra. This energy centre is directly related to your physical body and regulates stamina, vitality, and all your energy levels. Ask your crystal to transmute any negative energy stored in the vortex and fill it with its golden light. The recommendation is for fifteen minutes, but you will be guided to stop when the work has been done. If you are really tired, you can also place the citrine on each kidney, using the same intention to boost your energy levels. If you are very fatigued, you can do the same at the thyroid. All this work will mean your body is in tip top condition – energetically speaking at least – for the download on 12th

Crown Chakra – citrine activates this energy centre, so when you use it at the top of your head with this intention, it will strengthen your spiritual connection and allow you to connect more easily with higher dimensional energy. Both will be useful when the portal opens.

  • Lie down, with a citrine at the crown chakra and ground firmly. Then see or sense the golden light from the crystal cleansing the chakra. Then intend to connect to the higher realms and see or sense a similar golden light streaming down towards the chakra and pouring into the top of your head. When this flow has been established, intend that the golden light flows into the pineal and the pituitary glands, preparing them for the huge influx of light on 12th Continue this until you are guided to stop, disconnect from the stream of golden light, earth any excess energy then ground and return your awareness to your body, thanking your crystal.

Heart Chakra – to clear any emotional baggage. The 12:12 portal is about new beginnings, so set a clear intention that you want to clear any old emotional energy from your heart so you do not carry it forward into the nice shiny new beginning you create with the energy flowing through the portal.

  • Place a citrine at the heart chakra and set an intention for your breathwork while you hold the crystal there. On your in breath, you breathe in the cleansing golden light of the citrine, allowing it to transmute all the negative energy in the chakra. On the out breath, you release everything you no longer need to carry forward in your life. If there is anything specific you know has to go, name it so you are very clear that you want to release it – on all levels, especially a conscious level. And don’t forget to repeat for the back of the chakra.

Citrine Meditation – this is just good to do at any time! And, of course, you can adapt it – just use any crystal you like at the crown. It is your intention to breathe in the crystalline energy that gets the job done.

  • Lie down and place a citrine at the crown chakra. Set the intention that you would like the crystal to radiate its golden light down into your central channel and draw this energy in through the crown chakra on each in breath. It will fill the channel, gently cleansing it completely.
  • Now using your out breath, imagine you are pushing it out into each chakra and the golden light is transmuting any negative energy stored in your chakra system into positive energy. Continue until you feel this cleansing process is complete.
  • Now go back to breathing the golden light back into the central channel on your in breath.
  • Now on your out breath imagine you are pushing it out into your physical and etheric bodies, filling them completely with golden light.
  • When your physical body is full, allow it to flow out into the subtle bodies, cleansing the emotional body, then the mental body and, finally, the spiritual body. Continue until you feel this cleansing process is complete.
  • Disconnect from your citrine and thank it for helping you.
  • Earth any excess energy, ground and return your awareness to your body.

I hope you enjoy working with your citrine. I always do!

Bright Blessings!

AFTER 11:11 COMES THE 12:12 PORTAL

This portal is an energetic doorway like all the others and intense waves of high frequency energy pour through it onto the earthplane. Like the energy available when any other portal is open, it will hold Light Packets of information for you and you can use these to upgrade the whole of your Four Body System. You just need to download them in the usual way. But, also available during the 12:12 portal is a frequency known as the Christ Consciousness energy.

This combined form of Divine Light – the Light Packets and the Christ Consciousness energy – brings with it an opportunity for you to go through a deep re-birthing process, releasing old, dense energy that has been keeping your vibrational rate low. It allows you to raise your frequency until you reach a much, much high rate. But you cannot do this unless you have let go of all the old redundant ways you have been thinking and behaving.

Some people recommend the clearing process should be started in the heart and, while you can do this, this is only someone else’s idea. You are the authority on your journey, so if you know your negative energy is stuck somewhere else in your energy system, start there. Make an empowered choice and it will give you a much better result than if you rely on someone else’s opinion.

Look at what takes you down into a low vibrational state. Examine the patterns in your life and see if you can find what triggers your negative emotional reactions, taking you swiftly from a positive attitude straight down into a negative one, and see if you can change it. Or at least pause before you respond to stop the negative downward spiral. It will allow you to choose a different way to respond so you can start to clear the old ways out of your system.

At this time, with so much high frequency energy around to help you move forward, you need to remember that everyone chooses who they are and what they want to be. Your inner life, values and attitudes always create your outer life. No one else does it … just you. So, at this time of year it is time to start asking yourself if you like your life and the things in it. And, if you don’t, it’s time to start getting rid of them, especially the things that you have put up with, sometimes for years and years. There is no better time to let go than the 12:12 portal. If nothing else, it gives you a chance to fill up all the spaces left behind after the release process with the very lovely golden Christ Consciousness energy.

You need to let go of your past in a very powerful way and create something completely new… something totally authentic, which represents who you really are and what you truly believe.

At 00:12 and 12:12 on 12th December, there is an energy download. And, as this portal is specifically associated with the angelics and the Christ Consciousness energy, the angels will help you before, during and after the download to make sure you get the most out of the extra energy and it will be an exquisite golden colour because of the Christ Consciousness element.

At the two time slots, an alignment process begins, and the incoming energy will raise your vibrational rate until it matches the rate of the golden Christ Consciousness energy. You will become this beautiful frequency and be able to access what is known as Unity Consciousness. You will literally become one with everyone else who is vibrating at the same rate as you at the same time. It is a very powerful experience. The recommended time is 12 minutes, but it doesn’t really matter. As always, you will know what is best for you… and you can access the energy at one of the slots or both of them. It is up to you.

And, as a bonus, because this energy resonates with the quality of unity – you will also come into alignment with and unify all the different parts of you. And, while you are downloading you will be acting like a lightening rod, allowing the energy to flow through you and you will anchor it on the earthplane as a blessing to all who are in need of it. You make this beautiful frequency available to everyone. How fab is that!

All you have to do is visualise it flowing into your crown chakra, filling your central channel and then spreading out from there to fill the whole of your Four Body System. It really is that simple. Your intention will get you there and if you need any help, ask the angelics who are holding the portal open for us.

If you want to do some work before hand to prepare your system for this massive influx of energy, citrine is the crystal for you. Use it at the crown and it starts the alignment process to the Christ Consciousness energy. It also clears negativity from the crown so the energy can just slide down into the central channel without hitting any obstructions. You may also want to use it on your heart to clear any negativity from there because as this is highest frequency of unconditional love available on the earthplane at this time, it will target this area of your energy system as well.

I hope this lovely energy blesses you in every way!

Bright Blessings!

PREPARING FOR 11:11

There is going to be a massive shift on 11:11, so to make sure it doesn’t disrupt your energy system too much, it is often wise to start using a crystal to raise your vibrational rate beforehand, so when the down loads hit next week, it is not too much of a shock to your system… literally and figuratively!

Selenite is a good stone to use because not only does it keep your vibration high, it is also useful for the incoming energy on 11:11 because it can slide easily down the striations on the stone. This makes it much easier for you to complete the download process.

If you are not used to working with selenite, start with a five minute session so you can adjust to its high vibration and increase the time a little every day.

If you feel spaced out, add a grounding stone at your feet to stabilise your system. If you feel really spaced out, put an additional grounding at the base chakra as well!

Quick and Easy Crystal Layouts with Selenite

  • Place a selenite above the head, one below the feet with a black grounding stone.
  • Place one selenite above and below you, and one at each side. Lying inside this grid, is a great way to experience an expanded state of awareness and raise your vibrational rate.
  • Place a piece of selenite on either side of the body at the following positions – at shoulder level, waist level and knee level.

Lapis and Selenite: An effective way to use lapis with selenite is to place 6 – 8 pieces of selenite around your body and place a piece of lapis on your upper chest, and your throat or your brow. You will also need a grounding stone of your choice at your feet.

Chakra Placement: You may also use selenite on any higher chakra, from the brow going up to the transpersonals. It is also beneficial on the thymus.

Use any of the layouts above to raise your vibrational rate before 11:11 and the best way to use selenite on the day is to place a piece vertically above your head with the clear intention that you want the Light Code download to flow down along the striations and from there go into your crown chakra with ease and grace.

The downloads occur at 11:11 a.m. and 11:11 p.m.

If you feel you need any help or guidance, this is an angelic portal and it is held open by a  whole team of angels. Any of them will be happy to offer support or advice, but you do have to ask! Your own angelics will also be there for you as well.

If you feel you need re-balancing or re-aligning before you start working with selenite, see the previous blog

Bright Blessings!

Crystal Tip to Re-balancing and Re-aligning

With all the energy shifts, not to mention the 11:11 and 12:12 portals due soon, a quick and easy way to help you feel better after any downloads is to use two crystals together to re-balance and re-align yourself.

Set the clear intention that you want to do this on all levels – physical, mental, emotional and spiritual and place an amethyst at your crown and a grounding stone of your choice at your feet. My recommendation for this would be hematite because it regulates your energy. If you have too much it downloads it into the earth, if you have too little, it will draw energy up from the earth to ensure you aren’t running on empty, so to speak. It will help the entire process.

Lie with these two stones in position for up to twenty minutes. You’ll know how long you’ll need! And you can repeat as often as you feel you need to.

If a lot of emotional rubbish is coming up at the time you are working, you can add malachite to this exercise, placing it on the solar plexus. It will act like a hoover and absorb any rubbish you may have in the chakra.

Or you can add an additional amethyst and place it on your heart. At this position, the stone will also act like a hoover, pulling out any emotional rubbish. But the blessing of amethyst is that it does this without you needing to re-connect with any of the rubbish that caused the blockage. It just sucks it out of your system, and it is gone! It’s amazing and fabulous.

Do not use the malachite and the additional amethyst together. Do two separate exercise. It is always better to process the negativity in these two chakras separately.

And always remember to thank your crystals after they have worked so hard on your behalf!

Bright Blessings!

CHANGING

When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be.

Lao Tzu

As we approach Samhain and the end of the Wheel of the Year, think about this quote.

1st November is, in fact, the new year, and this means it is the perfect opportunity for you to become all you can possibly be, to leave all your old, limiting ways of thinking and behaving behind and start coming into a real alignment with your Authentic Self in a deep and meaningful way.

1st November is the start of another wheel and it is also the start of the annual cycle of deep inner growth. It is the time to be still and contemplate all the things you want to germinate over the dark times of the winter, so it can start to grow and blossom when the next outward cycle of growth begins in the spring.

What seeds do you need to plant now to create something new and wonderful when the light returns at Winter Solstice and gets brighter and brighter as we move towards springtime?

What things do you need to let go of to ensure you can achieve all you want to achieve in this next outward cycle of growth?

After all, it’s no good getting to spring and wondering why nothing has changed, why there are no new green shoots in your life, no possibilities of new and exciting things. If you don’t do anything to create that change and encourage those green shoots over the winter and plant those seeds so they can germinate, it will be your fault! No one can do it except you. It’s your life and your responsibility – no one else’s!

Seriously, nothing changes if nothing changes and you have to show up and actually do some work during the inward cycle of growth over the winter, so you are ready to go in the spring!

Change doesn’t just happen. It would be really nice if it did, but it doesn’t, so do spend some time thinking what you want to become and take at least one step towards it. It doesn’t have to be a big one. A small one will do. Seeds, after all, are rarely enormous, but huge things can grow from them if they are nurtured correctly. Think of the size of an acorn and then compare it to the size of an oak tree!

Small does not mean insignificant! It just has to be the right small thing to trigger the growth you want.

So – what do you want?

Think about it and start turning that might be in the quote above into a certainty!

Bright Blessings!
