Past Lives, Present (Introduction)

Imagine, if you will, a ball of string. A ball of string is really one long continuous piece of twine that has been turned and wound up into it's present form, a ball. And so it is with us. We are one long continuous consciousness turned and twisted through past lives into our present form.

That all sounds quite reasonable, logical even. By now most of us have come upon the concepts of life after death, re-incarnation and re-birth. Many are now in fact remembering their own past lives. But for me I'm having an internal realisation, you know those realisations that happen in every cell of your body, when the cells start jumping in delight because you've finally got it.

I'm only now realising just how much of our make-up comes from our past (or simultaneous) lives, and I'm a little shell shocked I have to say. So much so I'm left pondering what of me is actually of this lifetime, is it even possible that there could be anything independent of the other? Is every thought, feeling, response and belief conditioned by the previous, when do new behaviours cut in, new strategies arrive, and where have those supposed new strategies come from if they're now in your consciousness.

To be honest I've always been a little sceptical of people who say they remember their previous life times. Even if you consider the maths of soul aspects and over souls there are still way more people claiming to be the re-incarnation of some beautiful being than makes any sense. And there are many among them who seem more intent in being known for who they were, not who they are, something that always seems like such a waste of this life time to me.

However scepticism aside I've also been curious. In fact I've always thought at some point in time I would like to do some regression work, but every time I looked I couldn't seem to find the right practitioner or approach. So it was with some surprise the other night in conversation that I realised I have indeed been doing a lot of past life work myself. In fact when I look back over my travelling years I seem to have been doing little else really, especially over the last year or so.

Much of my understanding and learning has come in unusual ways. I don't have any personal stories to tell, no names and shoe size, no glamour and glory. I have my knowing supported by my body consciousness (and they say the body never lies) - finally they are getting my attention and the opportunity to release stored emotions and traumas I have carried through life times. 

Perhaps you will find some of my stories familiar, maybe you will resonate with the lifetimes, recognise the lessons and marvel at our inter-connectivity, or maybe your body is crying out to you like mine has been and you can start to free it.

“When you feel better as a result of a past life recall experience--whether a physical symptom has been alleviated, an emotional issue soothed, or you simply feel more confident and peaceful about your life and its direction, you don’t need to question the logical validity of the experience. You know it has empowered you to improve the quality of your life in a very tangible way.''

In the coming blogs I will share some of my experiences, not to reminisce about the past but to heal in the present. Maybe you have some of your own recollections to share too!

Support for Deep Releasing

Wow, we are amazing beings! It's truly awe inspiring to be part of these times and to be witness to the transformation we are saying 'Yes' to. We are tremendous, magnificent souls!

Hasn't it been just so intense! It seemed we were almost frenetic with activity especially around the Blue Moon in August. For a while everyone I met was presenting with the same feelings - overwhelm, confusion, old memories long forgotten re-surfacing, lack of clarity, sudden anxiety, and fear of the future.

There seems to have been an energy surging through us, pushing everything up for clearing. And we seem to be more willing than ever to deal with it, to move through it all and move onwards. I have been so impressed by the number of people asking for support, wanting to just deal with it and move on. It has been a time of great release, of letting go of old patterns, beliefs and emotions – life times of work. It's become crystal clear what no longer serves us well and impossible to continue on with things as they are. People are moving beyond polite, pacifying (good girl) behaviours and into truth, their own truth, whatever the cost might be. This isn't always easy, the birthing pains are strong, yet we are doing it - we simply know deep within that the time has come.

It's liberating, exhilarating even, feeling the movement, the momentum of so many people moving through things right now. Please don't get me wrong, I'm not enjoying the suffering of others, but rather I'm appreciating the shift that we are all part of. Of course none of these feelings are new to me - I've experienced anxiety, absolute confusion and felt utterly lost at times on my own journey. I understand what a lonely and all consuming place it can be.

It makes me wonder if we're going through things in waves. Perhaps certain groups of souls go through each stage at a certain point in time, and then they are the ones to help the next wave coming through behind them. It's like reaching a high platform and turning to lift the next man up, then as you look ahead to the next level in front of you there is someone there waiting to give you a helping hand.

Personally I have reached for and felt that helping hand whilst simultaneously extending my hand to others, and I am in awe of this process. I have been blessed to receive a lot of amazing support recently (past life clearing from the cellular memory, karmic release, re-alignment & re-connection) and have been equally blessed to be in a situation where I was able to offer support to others. We are  so well supported during these times, it seems as soon as something arises we are immediately presented with the support to go through it. How many seemingly random events or meetings have turned out to be just what you needed in that moment. It is like the help is set up and put in place before you even know you need it. We are blessed beyond my understanding. I give great thanks for this, for all that is unfolding, for All that Is.

May we continue to support and Love one another through our transition and beyond.

The Flaming Arrow of Truth

After acknowledging in a recent blog 'I know not what I know' and contemplating the essence of Truth it seems that this was actually a hint of what was on it's way, a trail blazer, the prelude to it's arrival. For Truth has arrived - ready or not!

Have you felt it? Has it scorched your ear as it whistled through at high speed, or has it hit your life with full force and torn all asunder?

Truth will out. It has arrived like a flaming arrow and with laser like accuracy it is tearing through our lives right now. It's ruthless and relentless and of the highest order. Whatever is not in alignment with our highest truth, whatever we have not been willing or able to see and release is being pushed up to the surface, being exposed for what it is. The excuses we have made for ourselves and for others are exhausted. There is no where to hide, no table left unturned - we can no longer pretend and carry on as if we didn't really know. The serene swan who was paddling like crazy under the surface has been up ended, it's as simple as that.

Perhaps we did know deep down inside, but the reality was too much to deal with. The thought of moving out of the relationship, leaving the security of the job, moving home, moving out of what ever false comfort zone we'd been clinging to was too much to even consider on top of everything else. Maybe moving forwards into the unknown felt harder than staying. Whatever the reasoning it matters not, our stories are not required, Truth is quite simply moving through our lives right now and it is unstoppable.

We have had opportunities in the past to look at our lives, to bring ourselves into alignment and for many of us we seem to have been doing nothing else for a long time now. But these last few weeks are somehow different. The veils of illusion are falling like autumn leaves. Now there is no choice.

Whoever I meet and wherever I turn it seems that the arrow of Truth has arrived. If there is any comfort to be found in this it is in knowing that it is not personal (even though it might feel insanely personal), you are not the only one, we are all going through this together. Resistance is futile, we are all being called into a higher level of integrity. Like the crucifixion and the resurrection we are being initiated by Truth now. So as Truth burns through your old life, your old self, it is an opportunity to rise like the phoenix from the ashes and step forth into your Divine Blueprint, into your Divine Self, into the Wholeness and Holiness of who you really are.

Glory Be!
