I received a great link from Pherenike about photographing snowflakes. Here is the link to have a look, http://www.life-enthusiast.com/twilight/research_emoto.htm.

I read it and was so happy. Its an old message from the world that we are all connected, that we affect our lives from our thoughts and our actions, that positive thinking does work and a smile goes a lot further than a frown. But I think as a human race we hear this but it doesn’t really register. It does with some and more and more I know which gives me heart for us as a whole.

I have done two levels of reiki training, which, for those of you who don’t know, is energy healing and is just wonderful. The thing I love about reiki is the fact that is goes where needed and how much is needed and you as the channeler of the energy just have to stay out of the way and let it do it’s thing. You can’t harm someone giving reiki and if the person is not open to reiceving it just doesn’t go anywhere. This got me thinking, if reiki goes where needed then I don’t have to do anything, I just have to be open to letting it happen and keep my thoughts and judgements out of the way. This works for distant healing also. So then the next step is to accept that we are all in the perfect place for us right now and I can’t judge or try to ‘fix’ someones lesson they are learning, aside from being there if they ask me for help. This was a real freedom for me to realise, I don’t have to worry about anyone else, I don’t have to rescue or change anyone else. All I need to do is be open to letting love/reiki flow through me to where it needs to go and be happy myself and heal my own issues and fears.

Now, back to the snowflakes. Masaru took photos of water in crystaline form. He took photos of clean spring water and polluted water and also pasted words like love and thank-you onto the bottles and peoples names and then took more photos and the difference are incredible. Water has memory (this is how homeopathy works also) and passes that memory onto any water it comes in contact with so if you drink or swim in pure clean water then it will pass into the water in your body. He demonstrated also that distance doesn’t matter. If good energy was sent to water far away it changed its form also.

This is why reading it made me happy, it reminded me that all we really have to do is project love and light into the world and it will come back to us. Think, water is the major component of the world. Its what gives us life. Without water we would be completely different.

There is so much fear in the world. I read once that there are only two basic emotions, love and fear. Fear is anger, frustration, control, arrogance, despair, anything that is not unconditional love. The internet is changing the world and connecting those who want to live in love and also connecting those who live in fear. Bit like star wars really. I reckon that as those who live in love become freer, those who live in fear will either see this and grow or will become more fearful and try to control. There are two levels to this also, a personal level in which we face the fear within ourselves and heal it and a global level where we heal the fear we have as a human race. The personal level comes first, has to come first. I cannot change anyone else, I can only change myself. But the lesson of the snowflakes is that all we need to do is send out the lovin’ vibes and we can change the world. Hippy yes, but hey, it works!

So, project happy thoughts and think of the snowflakes. It is all perfectly aligned and connected and full of life and light and in a nutshell I suppose what I am saying is…

be happy! x

I was doing a tarot reading with Paul last night, the osho zen tarot, I love them. They have a directness and a simplicity and a connection with here and now that I like. Anyway, I asked for me and ’sorrow’ came up and I was explaining to Paul that, for me, to really release sorrow you have to go into it and experience it and not try to run from it into control (whatever form that takes.. television, books, cigarettes, food, anger, however) and also what was I hanging onto in my life that I didn’t want to let go of, didn’t want to fully mourn and accept that it was gone. For me also tears are about the fear of letting go, the mind goes to fear and out come the tears.

I started a path about three years ago working with the toltec teachings and I don’t think I have ever cried so much and in front of people too! Its my first port of call and sometimes I hate it and try not to and other times I accept it and accept the fact that it will pass in time.

I know when I am in control because I feel a pushing in my solar plexus, a frustration, a want that cannot be satisfied, anger, a feeling of wanting to pick a fight, a need to make someone else wrong or make them little. It is my flag, this feeling, that it is time to relax, let myself fall into truth of here and now, stop trying to twist the world into my idea of how it should be and let it flower in its own time. I think I have been feeling this way recently, I have been doing so much administration, getting the past in order, setting up structures (like this blog and my shop) looking at other amazing blogs, making a web of myself on the ephemeral world that is cyberspace, that I fell into the illusion of control, I could, by much action, shape my world into happy and successful.

This is my fear, an old one, to control how others see me, to make them like me, to manipulate the world so I get what (i think) I need. The fear of really truly being exactly who I am right now because it might not be enough and the sorrow is to let go of the facade and let truth shine through. There is only truth.

The second card I got was ’sharing’, the image of a woman offering a bowl of fruits. She has so much she can give and she gives from endless abundance. This is the way past my fear, to share with the world what I have because each of us has a unique path and wisdom to give to the world and there is always enough for everyone. My mum used to say that we each born with our own packet of love and each child had his/her own.

I have been connecting with others who are on the same path as I. I got a wonderful email this morning from A Fanciful Twist (a really cool blog I discovered recently) which gave me a smile and encouragement. And of course Paul, the ever present love, with his own viewpoint on life. Sometimes we are completely in sync with each other and sometimes it’s immovable force meets unstoppable object! He got ‘the master’ card in this reading last night, but you know, I think I am going to ask him to write something from himself for that!

So, a deep breath, relax, time to put the admin in perspective and stop organising for a while. I am going to get the oil paints out this morning. I ADORE the smell of oil paints, they surround me in a cloud of magic or possibility, don’t know why but they do. Start creating and letting it flow once more. If anyone is feeling too much ‘doing’ and trying to control this morning, sit back, have a cup of tea, get a piece of paper maybe and doodle or write or hum a tune or sit under a tree or ring a friend you haven’t talked to in ages. These are the things which make us happy!
