Firsts

I bought this card at Trader Joe's with picture of a car on an open road that says, "when was the last time you did something for the first time?" I put it on my refrigerator and have been contemplating the thought for awhile. It's always a good thing to mix things up in life and to try new things and to stretch our imaginations, otherwise we get bored.

This past week has been a fun week of new things for me, and I wanted to share the inspiration with all of you.

I was the officiant of a wedding for the first time this past Saturday. (Congratulations, Lynn and Lon!) It was such a joyful experience to be a part of such a sacred ceremony. We have so few rituals left as a culture and weddings are such a deep awakening of the heart for all who get the honor to be a part of them. Weddings are there to bond the couple, but they also inspire us all to love even more in the relationships that we have.  I re-realized (Those of you who know me know that I like to make up words.:)) how deep and solid soul love is, and how precious it is to find someone to share that love. This was a great first experience and one I hope to do again.

My other first this week was to do a podcast with Gilden Tunador, our first podcast together. It will be posted here soon. It was so fun to explore ideas about intuition and divinity and energy with Gilden and I am very much looking forward to doing more. She has great insight and an innate intuitive ability in her own right. I hope you all will listen and I hope you enjoy it as much as she and I enjoyed doing it.

So, if I can inspire you all to get out there and do something for the first time, even if it's hard or even scary. It's so worthwhile to expand life beyond the limits of what we know. Report back to me what you wind up trying.

Love and Light, Liz

Opening Prayer and Message from Group Reading this Summer

Hi Everyone!

Here is a link to a recording from a group I did in July... This is just the opening prayer and message. The Q&A recording is available to those of you who were on the call if you'd like it.

Lots of Love and Light, Liz

Stop looking and God will give you what you want

I keep getting the message today as I have been working and settling in, "Stop looking and God will give you what you want," so I wanted to sit down and blog about that very thought for a moment. I feel like looking or seeking outwardly naturally can come from a place or feeling of lack. For instance, if I feel like I lack money, I am going to seek money in the world... The problem when my search for money comes from a feeling of lack, or "not enough," I keep getting money, but I never get enough to really get ahead. If, instead, I looked at whatever inside of me that felt lacking in wealth and asked divine light to heal that feeling of lack, I would naturally start creating situations that brought me money. I would not stop taking actions in the world that would bring me money, I would just be coming from a place of peace and divinity instead of lack.

The same goes for all kinds of searches. I search for peace, but I can't find it... I search for love, but I can't find it. Instead, asking for divine assistance to feel peace or to feel love, I naturally heal what stands in my way of that peace and love. Then I naturally, without seeking, create situations that create peace and love. (Or, in other words, God, Goddess, Divine light brings to me what I want.)

Thanks for listening... The divine kept tapping me on the shoulder about this one and I hope it helps everyone out there reading. Love and Light, Liz

Cleansing and Clearing

Hi Everyone! How has your summer been going? Have you missed me?

This has been a powerful summer for me that centers around cleansing a clearing and healing and getting super present in the moment.

My house was the symbol of all of this as I had multiple house repairs all summer long. It's finally coming to a sane level. I couldn't sleep in my bedroom for 3 months because of mold and I feel like I got to cleanse the mold out of my brain and my soul and get centered on the present moment and find ways to ground myself.

For those of you who know me well, you know that I am an Aquarius, which in simplistic terms means that I am a bit of an airhead. It helps me when it comes to doing readings and seeing and feeling and experiencing energy, but it doesn't always help me be present in physical life and living.

Having to be super present with my house and house repairs got me really present in my body. I got to hammer and paint and even tile! It was fun and so grounding, even though it took me away from business and blogging and work sometimes.

While I was cleansing the mold from my bedroom, I visualized all the aspects of my mental, emotional, and spiritual bodies getting cleansed and cleared as well. I realized how much patience it takes to really be thorough when it comes to healing something. (If it takes a couple of months to heal a room, then lifetimes of unhealthy patterns definitely take longer than that.) We get so hard on ourselves sometimes when things don't heal as fast as we want them to, but it makes sense that we have to heal, then sit and wait and make sure all the "mold" is out and then heal some more if we find more. I see a lot of people give up on themselves too soon and think that they've failed in a healing process when they are about to break through and out of an age-old pattern. It's easy to do, but be gentle with yourselves and you will heal. A light breaks through and you get to see the clear state of self.

I guess I learned patience a bit more this summer as well.

Much love and light to you on your journey. I am in the process of developing a podcast- coming soon!

A Podcast I did with Betsy Coffman

Hope you all enjoy this! Love and Light, LIz

Disappearance

Hi Everyone! I know, I disappeared for a month or so... Thanks to those who have emailed me and said you missed me. :) I got caught up in life and have so much to share.

The thing rolling around in my brain in this moment is a quote from a song that a friend sent me that Sinead O'Connor sings ( I don't know if she wrote it.)  "I have a universe inside me." (I just looked the song up and it's called "The Healing Room.") The expansive energy of life inside every cell of our beings is so large and beautiful that it cannot be contained. As we access the universe inside us, we naturally feel our limitlessness and we share that limitlessness with the world.

Ahh, it's nice to be back with you all. I have been dealing with multiple shifts and changes in my life. The year anniversary of my dog Gracie's death, the death of a client, a mold problem in my bedroom that has disrupted my house and caused the dogs I have now to be a bit crazy, wind wind and more wind with the New Mexico spring, the chaotic and somewhat neurotic energy of Mercury going in and out of retrograde, relationships shifting and changing and growing- all in the course of a month. I have learned more about the preciousness of being human. There is something so divine about our personalities processing different changes in life and going through the thoughts and emotions of life. I am grateful to be human, even though humanness has its challenges.

I am sending prayers to those of you who are going through chaos, either internally or externally in your lives. I would guess that everyone is going through some form of major change at this moment as the earth opens to more and more love and as humanity heals at the core essence of who we are. We need to be here to support each other through the changes and to find the universe inside us and share it with the world.

Blessings, and more soon! Love and light, Liz

Fighting Back Days

I may not have mentioned a great friend of mine named Emily who lived to be 95 and had a great spirit of life that I miss seeing in person. She's still with me in my heart, of course, and I want to dedicate this blog to her. She had the expression "fighting back days" for when life is frustrating and when it feels like it is fighting you back and I have always loved that expression. You would use it when everything in a day goes against what you had planned for that day. Like you get up and you can't get your hair to look right, your toothbrush breaks, you have a fight with your husband, you get frustrated with yourself, the car won't start, and this is all before 9 am. This would be a fighting back kind of day.

It seems like life is fighting back a little for a lot of people right now, and I thought I would take a moment to talk about why life would fight us back. It's not to torture us or to make us feel bad about ourselves or about life. Fighting back days are there to remind us to take a moment and breath. This life right now, with all of the planetary changes and shifts that are happening, requires quite a bit focus on grounding and setting clear intentions. If we don't give ourselves time to be present in the day, to consciously ground our divinity in our bodies, we can easily get overwhelmed and feel like life is fighting us back.

How, you might ask, when you are frustrated and irritated can you possibly ground yourself and set clear intentions? All you want to do is scream! Well, first definitely scream- warn those around you, of course. After you scream and let out some of your frustration, ask for divine support to fill you with light and help you to heal your imbalances. "Dear God, help," is a good simple prayer when you are in the midst of a fighting back day. (God knows you can't get beyond a simple thought when you encounter a day like that.) Once you let go of the energy inside of you that feels like it is about to explode, then you can either get on with your day if you're busy, or you can sit and look deeper into what is going on with you. What feels imbalanced? What needs to heal? If you can't find any answers, don't worry. You will along the way. Maybe this day just needs to be filled with whatever is easiest so you can reset the fighting back energy and get back to the flow.

Good luck to you all! Lots of love, Liz
