5 Keys to being a Manifestation Master in 2012

 

In 2003 Jeni Miller and I were guided to bring in a body of work (direct from Source) known as Manifestation Mastery.  To me, manifestation is the capacity to bring energy and inspiration from Source into materialization. It is a shift in vibration, in frequency from one form into another, much like water shifts its molecules to be steam or ice depending on its temperature.

Mastery refers to our inner capacity to embody, own, align with our inner signature energy, essence or divine frequency. Mastery takes on many forms, yet when we are in a state of mastery we are in a state of vibrational coherence. This mastery, vibrational coherence, feels at times neutral or detached (the capacity to transcend slower vibrational emotions such as fear, insecurity and doubt) at other times it feels charged, powerful, a force of energetic palpability.

Mastery combined with Manifestation is the key to inner and outer alignment. It is the formula of being in a state of flow, wellbeing and bliss. It is the divine process of becoming re-Sourced.

Manifesting and Mastery are both energetic journeys, meaning to bring spirit into form (materialization) you must go on an energetic journey. Some speak of this energetic journey as one of positive thinking, affirmations, visualizing your end result. For me this energetic journey is alchemy, awakening, and alignment through the process of inclusion. Including the slower vibrational energies into the higher vibrational energies (for at the base everything is energy).

Personally, I believe the crux of the shift in consciousness of this time is Divine Awakening. Awakening as the divine beings that we are, which includes vibrationally accelerating our thoughts, feelings, body…a soul/body fusion, a merging of spirit and matter, a bringing together of spiritual and material as one. If we look back on the water analogy with the steam representing spirit and the ice representing mater, water in its liquid form is the unification of both steam and ice, spirit and matter shifting molecules to be in the same location.

Manifestation Mastery moves you to the same location as that which you desire to create in your life (health, wealth, happiness, time). It is a vibrational journey, a step-by-step process and a spiritual practice that provides tools, empowerments and activations to align with your inner power, truth and divinity.

Here are some simple steps to enhance your Manifestation Mastery in 2012, which are covered more deeply in the 6 wk Manifestation Mastery course that begins on January 5th. To find out more about this powerful program and to register go here.

Keys to being a Manifestation Master in 2012

  1. Daily Energy Practice: Develop a daily practice to raise your vibration
  2. Receive: Imagine that everything you would like to manifest is right outside your door and all you have to do is open the door and let it in. Developing the mastery of receiving is how you open the door. Develop practices that open you up to be a Mastery Receiver. Examples, take a deep breath when someone compliments you, hold checks or money you receive to your heart and receive it fully into your life, let someone help you with something.
  3. Ease and Grace: Set your intention to experience your day with ease and grace. If you are struggling with something, take a break, go for a walk and come back to it from a new vibration of relaxation, ease and grace.
  4. Decide that Spiritual is Material and Material is Spiritual & you can have what you want.
  5. Nourish your body, mind, emotions and soul: You are multi-dimensional and in order to be a manifestation master you need to have vibrational coherence between your body, mind, emotions and spirit. If you tend to ignore your physical body and meditate all the time, make a practice of nourishing your body. Or if you are in your head, make it a priority to get in touch with your feelings…

Day 2: Sunrise Between the Paws of the Sphinx

Today our group is connecting to Anubis, the jackal-headed god who opens the way and is the guardian of lost and abandoned parts of ourselves. The magic of the sacred place is sparking all around us and I am overflowing with energy and transmitting consciousness. The preciousness of each person walking up to the Sphinx and offering their intention for the journey is powerful and profound. My beloved, standing in for Anubis, guides our group in a walking meditation around the Sphinx to connect to their future selves. While the group is walking I lay down on the ground and gaze up at the face, the chin, the heart of the Sphinx. The Earth below me is pulsating with light, the sky above is blue and magnificent. I am transported to an ancient time. When the group arrives back and I open my eyes to gaze upon my beloved husband’s face, I see the face of Anubis staring back at me. I see that he has embraced his future self and will be priesting to help others to open the way back to their hearts.

Day 3: Sakkara, The Pyramid Texts, and The Egyptian Boy Scouts

Today is a gathering of millions at Tahir Square. Our group is deeply touched to be in Egypt during this time of great transition and know that we are here supporting the shift with love and grace. After our ceremony and visit of Sakkara we walk out on the path of the initiate from Unas’ pyramid under a covered walkway with only a slit of light coming through. We stop to send our blessings to the Egyptians on this day. After each person has spoken their blessing for Egypt and the future of the Egyptian people, we open our eyes to behold a most magnificent sight. A group of Egyptian Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts walk in-between our group, smiling and saying hello. The next generation of Egypt walking through the energy that our group had co-created is one of those magical experiences that couldn’t have been planned any better if we tried.

Day 4: Sekhmet

Nine years ago my beloved asked me to marry him in the chapel of Sekhmet (the lioness goddess of courage, compassion, and healing). Returning to this place is always special to me. As the group stood in front of the living statue of Sekhmet she asked us to ante-up by offering her our pain, suffering, fear, grief, self-deprecation. These slower vibrational energies are the currency, the fuel we were being asked to offer up in order to step into our next level of consciousness and becoming. When she sensed some of us were holding back, she reminded us that it was our choice, yet it was highly recommended that we were “all in.” Having offered our stuff into the solar feminine fire, we received a divine feminine download. Then the group emptied the chamber and was invited back in one at a time, after receiving a hands-on activation from me as the embodiment of Sekhmet. Tears, laughter, acceptance….the group was deeply touched by our time with Sekhmet. For me personally, I offered up anything that I was holding on to that was preventing me from fully stepping into my divine design, my purpose and presence full-on. The time with Sekhmet was completed with Friedemann and I going up to her together and, without any pre-planning or verbal communication, we each renewed our marriage vows and created the next phase of our sacred union. After the ceremony when we told one another what had happened, it felt so divine and delicious to be so in-sync.

Our evening visit to Luxor temple was another beautiful manifestation of the group as we had it basically to ourselves.

Day 5: Abydos and Dendera

I am always amazed at the innocence I bring to my intention-setting, I feel the next step rising within me and I declare and claim it, like the declaration I created at Sekhmet’s chapel of aligning fully with my divine purpose and permanently completing any residue that was no longer serving. Then as more is revealed I go, “Ohhhhh, now I see the ripple effects of that intention. Holy moly what was I thinking (and I wouldn’t have it any other way).” At Abydos, one of the most exquisite temples in Egypt, mainly associated with Osiris and the flower of life, I found myself balling in the middle of a ceremony where we were guiding the group back to before their first incarnation and working with past lives. For me, I had stumbled upon a lifetime in which I had completely renounced God (the Divine). This was the root of the push/pull I have been feeling for the past decades around my purpose. I am fully committed to living my purpose and have been on track since a young age in this lifetime. Yet I have experience deep levels of shame, terror, doubt, and fear along the way and a bit of hesitation or holding back. What I have wanted most in this lifetime is to share that divine purpose (which is to support others to realize their divinity and wholeness) and what has scared me the most and brought up the most resistance is exactly this. Resolving this lifetime of cutting myself off from my divinity created an incredible shift within and without.

Our group continued on to Dendera, the temple of Hathor, goddess of joy, bliss, love, sensuality. We began our ceremony in Nut’s (the sky goddess, the milky way) chapel where I had the distinct pleasure of embodying the Hathors and toning which turned into laughing, which turned into group giggling. So much fun. Our ceremony continued in the mirror reflection of Nut’s chapel which is a Hathor/Isis chapel, when it was time to invoke the energies of the place I opened it up to the group as we are all gathering together as leaders and masters. One of the group members opened the space and brought in such a beautiful and profound energy of divine love. Once in the vibration of love we then proceeded to blow any residual habits of fear into balloons that we played with in the chapel and filled with love to transmute the energy. To physicalize this transmutation we popped the balloons. After the ceremony completed I spent some time in the healing temple with one of my favorite reliefs of Toth in Egypt. It is not the most beautiful one or colorful one, yet to me it is the most alive. As I stood in front of the relief, I received an incredible download, a body of work that is so exciting, powerful and magnificent that I can’t wait to share it. (About six years’ worth of teachings streamed – the beauty of a day in Egypt).

Day 6: West Bank

We began our morning at the temple of Hatchepsut built for the only female king in Egypt. Today we are working with the energy of Ma’at, divine order, truth and balance (represented by the scales of Ma’at in the weighing of the heart ceremony). Today are the elections in Luxor, the first election for the Egyptians in 30 years, what a beautiful and special day to be in Egypt. We began our ceremony at Anubis’s chapel offering more prayers for Egypt to return to Ma’at, right relationship for her people as well as to embrace Ma’at within ourselves. We continued in Hathor’s chapel chanting a healing chant and visualizing Egypt, the world and ourselves in harmonic resonance. We continued our journey to another temple to work with our DNA, genetics and ancestral lineage. During this ceremony it became abundantly clear to me that one of the hallmarks of the shift in consciousness is to shift from resolving the ancestral lineage to embracing the soul/divine lineage.

Then we went to the Valley of the Kings. Throughout our time in Egypt the decline in tourism has been apparent and how challenging that is for the Egyptian people to be cut off from their primary work and income. From having thousands of people visiting the Valley of the Kings there are only 100′s. So the number of Egyptians selling postcards, books, scarves etc. to the number of tourists has shifted dramatically. Where before there was one person selling their wares to 100’s of tourists now there is 10 Egyptians selling stuff to every one tourist. This day especially made it so clear to me how important it is that we are here, and that we let others know how safe and wonderful it is to be here. That buying something for a dollar for us makes a huge difference for them.

Day 7:

Sailing on the temple of the Nile is always a rejuvenating and glorious experience. The group is sharing such a deep experience with one another, it is clear that this group of souls has gathered for a sacred purpose. As this is my tenth trip in Egypt and the country is in transition and the world is in transition, it feels as if the energies of the temples are changing. That being here during this time is like a wild card we each can go in and access that which is uniquely beneficial for us before the next level of consciousness is set for the temples and the template of the universe. Each person in our group is like a key that unlocks the next level of consciousness. It feels as if now we are about to begin the next spiral of ascension consciousness. I am joyously looking forward to our continued journey together. What a blessing.

Are you a Spiritual Leader in Hiding?

Read full article | No Comments

I know I was and that’s why over the last few years my business has really focused on supporting women spiritual entrepreneurs, healers, metaphysical practitioners, writers, soul-centered beings to prosperously share their purpose unencumbered by fear, shame, doubt or worry.
The reason I am so passionate about this is twofold. One because this has been my personal journey ~ shifting from absolute terror and shame around visibly sharing my gifts-to now doing so with confidence, joy and abundance. Plus, my soul’s journey, gifts and talents include being able to support others to resolve this problem
permanently.
Two, I know too many talented and gifted spiritual light-workers, intuitives, healers that have an awesome contribution to share, yet are stopped by their fear, doubt, the collective unconscious and residual energetic past life patterns. Often times these spiritual women (and some men) are over-giving, under-earning and can’t afford to continue to offer their gifts. Holding back, hesitating, procrastinating, overwhelm, powerlessness are just a few of the faces this inner tension takes. Yet underneath it all is the deep longing to live the Divine Light you are by sharing your soul’s purpose fully.
Is this ringing any bells? Here is a laser Divine Transmission to free up some of the stored energy and power that is masquerading as fear so you can unbridle the leader in hiding that resides within you.

Divine Transmission: Radiate Your Inner Light & Leader
Dear Divine Being,
We the divine, (a band of divine consciousness/light beings) see you the Divine as perfect, whole and complete right now. We know with you and for you that it is your birthright to be you fully, to shine the light that is you brightly and to broadcast your inner power and purpose radiantly. As we are vibrating these words and you are reading them breathe deeply, breathe beyond the stored fear, the powerlessness, the overwhelm, breathe beyond the illusion that you
are separate from that which you seek. Breathe beyond any stagnant energy or core beliefs that there is something wrong with you, or that if you speak your mind you will hurt someone else or be in danger. Keep breathing until you reach that part of you that is so delicately hiding deep within all of these thoughts, feelings and behaviors until you are breathing into your inner leader, your core power, your Divine Light. This aspect of you that is your multi-dimensional unfolding. And as you breathe more consciously now ask yourself are you choosing to be the being that you came here to be? Are you choosing to unmask yourself and authentically share your essence with the world?
If so, feel the Divine within and without beginning to percolate, to bubble up from within and as it does it enlivens and enlightens any stored tension, fear, shame or doubt. It informs these slower vibrational energies of their wholeness and their inner capacity to evolve with you into your greater yet to be.
The time is now; you are calling forth your own inner leader into being. All is well. To complete this Divine Transmission focus on a color that you are drawn to in this moment and spend the next several minutes breathing this color into your body, mind, emotions and spirit. You are home. You are one. You are the shining light that you have been seeking.
With love and joy,

The Divine

Hello,

I am joyously gliding along the bliss slide of life after an incredible private 5-day Divine Birthright Activation Program, which I transmitted last week in Seattle. The response to this program was tremendous and sold out right away and now has a waiting list building for 2012. (If you want to receive priority notification about the next time I offer it, just email my team, with subject DBA list).

This program striking a chord with so many of you reconfirms my knowingness that there is a movement of beings that are choosing to live from unity consciousness, in divine union, and as the divine embodiment. And as such, access the birthrights of bliss, empowered manifestation, abundance, purpose and union as givens.

To support you in accessing your birthrights please enjoy the excerpt from the Divine Birthright Activation Program Manual below.

Also a quick sneak peak, I will be traveling to Sedona in October and Egypt in November and will have opportunities to join me remotely for both. See Sedona groups and Holographic Egypt below.

In the energy of PLAY and PURPOSE,

Danielle

Excerpt from The Divine Birthright Activation Manual by Danielle Rama Hoffman and the Divine Team.

Keys to Truth: Play, Well-being, Receiving

“We want to introduce the vibration of play. Play. This vibration is a key to unlocking your divine awareness. Please tune into the frequency of play; not your idea of what play is, rather the vibration of play as it is streaming through this manual at this moment. Life is play. Life is recess. Life is vacation. Life is fun. Life is a game.

…What we would like to illuminate at this point is that from your divine union as a creator-being you understand that it is all play. That one activity is not more play than another. It is all play; it is all energy that you are molding from the creative core of your being. Can you feel how much more relaxed and excited you are as you contemplate your life as play; all of your life? This gives you permission to be engaged from a high vibration of source energy in all areas of your life. It is just as thrilling to wash a dish as to go to work, as to paint, as to sleep, as to anything, from the eyes of self as divine. If you tune in, you realize that every moment, ordinary or extraordinary, is simply divine. Each moment is incredible, miraculous, a joy, a light, a vibratory trip or journey.

We are exploring the concept of life as play before going more deeply into your divine birthrights, so you can easily access this play memory and understand your life from this experience.

Now that it is all play (and you remember the vibration of play), what is it that you would create?… This manual is infused with the understanding that it is not the activity that creates the feeling-tone, it is the experience you have. The activity just happens to be occurring as well. This is a deep concept. You are used to thinking about your activities or your experiences as the gravy train of your emotions, meaning that when you experience math you feel good, when you experience science you feel bad. Whereas, from your divine experience, you can be in the feeling-tone of oneness, peace, bliss, and every experience is infused with these feeling-tones.

Can you see how this provides you with great freedom? It allows you to be present with your life and your self as it is and have the feeling-tone of it being play, of it being bliss. The feeling-tone is not dictated by the experience, the experience is expressed through the feeling-tone…”

Five Steps to Align With You

Five Steps to Align With You

Now is a time of great awakening. Many are feeling called. Time has accelerated. Light is expanding.

One step in this awakening process is aligning with what is true for you, and your broader perspective (your soul, your essence, your divinity). In order to do this, there is an energetic recalibration that is occurring. One in which you are being invited to look within and put the spotlight back on you, your life, your dreams, your thoughts, your actions. To be in a state of inner alignment, individualized unity.

Five simple steps to energetically calibrate and align with you:

1. Pay attention to what it is that you are focusing on and how you feel when you do.

2. Consciously choose thoughts, feelings, activities that bring a sense of joy, peace and freedom (create a list so you have it on hand to refer to).

3. Concentrate on yourself (let others focus on themselves).

4. Let go of activities that scatter your energy (yup, even that one).

5. Focus on a few areas that are important to you in a more concentrated way. This will create a sense of consolidation in your energy field and in your life.

This supports you to shift from a non-cohesive vibration to a harmonic vibration. Want more support in navigating the changing times with ease and grace? Join this month’s Group Divine Transmissions, Group Divine Transmissions, Empowered Relationships & Loving the Now.

Join The Energy Support Program and entrain and maintain a higher vibration (which is vibrationally where health, wealth and happiness reside).

Awaken The Divine Within

Read full article | No Comments

Are you living a Divine Life?

One of core shifts that is occurring on the planet at this time is that we have the opportunity to awaken to the Divine within. To embody the knowingness that we are Source, God, Spirit, Divinity, Goddess, Infinite Oneness, All that is. With this awakening is the empowered experience of being creator beings, in a state of bliss, abundance and self-union.

Yet how do we awaken the Divine within? Especially when we may feel the opposite of the above Divine Birthrights-powerlessness, fear, stress, worry and lack. How do we step through the doorways of these illusions into our Divine knowingness?

Here are two simple steps to shift your energy from Divine Separation to Divine Union.

1. Conscious Choice-State the following declarations out loud

“I create my reality, I have the power to change it.”

“I activate my Divinity codes now.”

“I choose all my thoughts, feelings and actions to emanate from Unity Consciousness.”

2. Energy Shift-Stand up and do these exercises while breathing deeply in through the nose and out through the mouth. (From Donna Eden’s book Energy Medicine)

• Tap gently below your collar bone on both sides of your body, 30 seconds.

• Tap on your breast bone for approximately 30 seconds.

• Tap on your lower ribs (on top of liver and spleen) for about 30 seconds.

• Cross/Crawl-Bring your right hand to your left knee and then your left hand to your right knee for about 30 seconds.

• Complete this Energy Shift with 3 deep breaths.

Then repeat as necessary.

As we transition from separation consciousness (struggle, fear, worry…) to unity consciousness (ease, peace of mind, trust) it is normal for both ways of being to be active simultaneously. Yet it is essential to dismantle the old ways of being and fully become congruent with the embodiment of your spiritual beliefs. That is why I have created several ways to support you in your Shift Into Unity.

Money Muse Transmission

Activate your Birthright of Abundance

This is the Money Muse Panel of light beings that is moving more into the forefront of this Divine Transmission to share with you wisdoms, vibrations and frequencies to support your financial alignment. What we mean by financial alignment is the greater understanding of your inner alignment with your birthright of abundance as it translates to finances. The energy of Money has shifted and as such so has the vibration of financial abundance. Which is no longer about hard work, striving and sacrifice. Rather now it is about love, peace, alignment and the core activation of abundance as a birthright. A given!

A short breathing and visualization exercise:

Take some deep breaths and tune into your core essence… the vibrational frequency that denotes your signature energy. Expand your awareness of your core essence so that it builds. Builds and expands. Now breathe into the center of your solar plexus chakra , the space in between your lower ribs. Focus the energy of the New Money Consciousness into your solar plexus. Perhaps imagine a color that represents the loving, life-enhancing, purpose championing energy of new Money and saturate your solar plexus with this color of light…. As this color expands in your solar plexus, feel a relaxation happening within your core vibration, illuminating a vibration of peace and stillness… Now activate from within the core of your solar plexus the light and love of all there is. Activate the Divine creator archetypal energy from within your core vibration. Aligning, remembering and divining. You are a Divine Creator being, you are the light and the love of the world. Own your true empowered state. Activate your core truth. Radiate your birthright of abundance. Ignite ease and grace and relax into the ever-expanding state of the universe.

Now call upon the New Money vibrations to circulate in your solar plexus. Intend that these energies of birthright and alignment inform your solar plexus that the era of struggle, fear, scarcity and forcing are over. That now is the time to create through joy, through unity, through clarity, through ease, through the expanding unfolding universe. Take 3 breaths to complete this process…

Now this quick Divine Transmission supports you in being in a state of greater ease as it correlates to your financial life. If you find yourself worrying about money, striving or struggling around money, just stop take some deep breaths and direct the energy of the New Money consciousness into your solar plexus.

My 2011 Sojourn to Southern France

Southern France 2011 – Heaven on Earth

As I journeyed to Southern France in 2011 for a 3-week sojourn I was ready for an upgrade in my consciousness. I had the feeling that I had filled my current state of mind to the brim and was stretching beyond what was previously known to me and out of my comfort zone. Upon my arrival I was almost immediately whisked into a state of absolute peace, contentment and fulfillment. My usually active mind was still. My inner drive to accomplish my mission in this lifetime was transformed into a sense of peace. I would go for hours without speaking, or really seeming to have any thoughts, just simply floating in an absolute sense of peace. The experiential knowingness that life is simply Heaven on Earth (NOW).

Wow, it was incredible. In addition to this feeling state of peace, I spent my days with my beloved husband Friedemann, hiking in nature, going for runs, eating exquisite foods, meditating at sacred sites, meeting wonderful people. Each day was filled with things I love to do and to experience. What amazed me most about this feeling state of contentment was that I wasn’t trying to feel a sense of wholeness and bliss; rather I just became these sensations. I experienced what I have believed for a long time that my birthright is peace; that bliss, joy and contentment exist within me now.

All feelings of striving, lack, and being driven made way to such a deep sense of inner peace and detachment. Upon my return I am feeling my ‘set point’ shifted from a sense of being motivated by desire (desire to be of service, desire to fulfill my purpose, desire to thrive financially…) to absolute contentment. Nothing is missing; nothing needs to be sought after. It is really a bit wild, so now as I am home my ‘motivation’ for living my life, and creating new courses, and being of service is peace, contentment and wholeness.

Here is a Divine Transmission of some of the energetics I connected to in France; to support you in enlivening the truth within that peace is your birthright.

Divine Transmission from Mary Magdalene:

Hello dear ones, this is Mary Magdalene moving more into the forefront of this Divine Transmission. It is the message of love that inherently holds the vibrations of peace and wild contentment. Love as a vibration, as one of the highest vibrations on the planet. The field of love is what is streaming through these words and this moment and by embracing this field of love, the truth of peace now is activated within your core center.

Know this, you are all that you are in this now moment as a light and as a cornerstone of divine knowing. This divine knowing is the light and the love of all there is and this love and light of all there is, is your true nature. Now breathe deeply and allow this state of peaceful oneness arise from within your cellular memory. Memories of the divine birthright of the way of love, brim into your core matrix.

This is the experience of the awakening process that you have been choosing. Now it is simply the alignment of this way of being that is the truth of the wholeness that you are. Take 3 deep breaths and if you choose ignite your core essence of peace and then let it be so. For it is a choice to be content, it is a choice to be in the field of love, it is a choice to align with your core knowingness. As it is also a choice to be in the drama of separation. It may not feel like a choice, yet it really is. Now, is all there is and this now has all there is within it. So as you embark on the rest of your now moments allow them to unfold like a beautiful flower drinking in the morning sun. You are a walking Heaven on Earth. Blessed BE!

My Sojourn to Southern France-September 2009

Read full article | No Comments

After reading Peter Mayle’s book A Year in Provence, listening to other spiritual seekers about their France pilgrimages and learning through my astrological chart that this region was in my top 3 on the planet I was envisioning at the very least an experience of utopia and was hopeful for even more. In my mind I tasted the exquisite food, saw the beautiful nature and felt a palpable sense of serenity and union with the divine. I was primed for an experience of a lifetime.   Have you ever had a clear vision of how something will go and then once it actually happens be completely surprised by the difference between the imagined experience and the actual one? Well welcome to my sojourn in France. The blue sky living of the Provence lived up to its beauty and radiance the nature was lush and nurturing. The food was out of this world (sometimes literally-I had no idea what I was eating) yet my naive idea of instant utopia was soon replaced with deep, transformative inner work.

Each day my beloved Friedemann and I would go for a run, then a hike (we quickly renamed our sojourn-Southern France butt camp) and top off the day with a 3-course meal. Each steep step up the mountain seemed to be tapping into a cellular memory of feeling like I didn’t belong, that I wasn’t safe and that I had done something ‘wrong’. My initial reaction to the overwhelming sense of shame was I have already done this work, why is this coming up now…yet on a deeper level I could feel the art of pilgrimage, the process of unwinding that happens from sacred travel. Each step got me more in tune with myself, the energy of the land and the truth that I had come to this sacred land at this time to complete patterns that had come to their expiration date.

The nature was healing and I could sense those that had walked these lands before. I remembered the history of the persecution that happened on this sacred land. I read about the Cathars who were killed for their faith, visited churches that had secret messages left by the Knights Templar (because it wasn’t safe to share them openly) and thought about the inquisition. On a deep level the land and this part of its history was bringing up within me dormant fears around being a spiritual leader, being visible and seen. Unconsciously I felt like I needed to hide, to blend in to go underground.

Yet in the midst of this emotional transformation I was blessed with an incredible amount of physical vitality and strength. I was like an ox, with an endless amount of stamina and energy. I knew that the walking was the magical catalyst for transforming the energy of fear and shame into safety and visibility. I began to think about all the people I know who have bumped up against a similar pattern, a fear of being in danger for sharing their spiritual truths, their healing gifts and their essence. I became even more determined to complete this pattern within me, not only for my inner journey of peace and expansion, but also for all those I hold dear.

Our journey continued from Provence to the Languedoc region, the area where Mary Magdalene and Isis were thought to travel to when they left Egypt. During my time here I had a reprieve from the deep inner work and was surrounded by others on a similar path. We spent time with new friends including Ani Williams (magical harpist), Henry Lincoln (bestselling author of Holy Blood, Holy Grail) and a handful of modern day Templars. We followed the itinerary from spiritual tours through this region. Going to the sacred sites to connect with the power of this sacred land was the part of our journey I was most looking forward to. We manifested many magical experiences including a lovely walk through a druid forest and natural labyrinth, receiving a divine transmission at Montsegur (means safe mountain) and meditating in many churches that were built on earlier sacred sights. Yet the energy of these places was shrouded in mystery, subtle, illusive. Very pleasant yet we left with more questions then answers.

Even though I wasn’t getting a whole lot on the conscious level I trusted that I was awakening what I needed to on the soul level. Our journey continued with more hiking, sacred site visiting, yummy food and deep connection and as soon as we got back to the Provence I was back in the alchemical fire. By the end of the trip I felt as if I had an entirely new root chakra that was unplugged from the individual and collective consciousness of persecution and the need for tribal acceptance. It was intense, profound and deep and although not my original definition of utopia I am elated (now that I am on the other side of it) with the spiritual and personal growth I experienced and ultimately with the freedom I feel within. I feel solid in my body in a whole new way. I gained deeper clarity about the importance and value of my path. As a result of this trip I am standing more firmly in my commitment to do what is mine to do. I know that the jewels of this mysterious treasure hunt will continue to be found as I unpack the energies of the trip and that the power and freedom from my inner journey ripples out into the universe as in invitation for others to be themselves unapologetically and unbridled. As always I am a strong believer in the power of sacred travel and am grateful for the benefits of this most recent sojourn.
