Summer Soltice Wackiness

Okay, been talking with fellow friends and Sensitive’s. What I thought was my own wacky symptoms seems to match everyone else’s. I’ve been flipping out over Foxy, our red dog’s health. She’s older and has been affected by the energies, her age and now the heat we’ve been having. Lots of changes happening. So, here’s some symptoms I have noticed that have occurred from this new wave of energy that has come in (especially experienced by the Empaths of the world).

  1. old stuff coming up — in your face like never before. Thoughts of “haven’t I already dealt with this already?”
  2. fatigue! Tired, tired, tired. Wanting to hole up somewhere and make life simpler.
  3. High emotions
  4. Not able to think straight
  5. doubting your guidance (ooh, big one for me lately)
  6. lots of low level spirits lending advice (the veil is slimmer now! You know if it’s low-level advice or just well-meaning dead relatives when instead of feeling a Yes inside you cringe a bit and think, that’s not right.
  7. nightmares or wacky dreams or very lucid dreams
  8. visions if you are clairvoyant
  9. ear ringing (spirits or Guides nearby)
  10. dreams of sorting through clothes or stuff and deciding what to keep
  11. headaches — lots of energy coming through and in
  12. new ideas coming in that you never even considered

I also want to note that many of our animals are feeling the same stuff! Best advice I’ve found is to call in all your Angels and Guides and ask for help and upliftment (is that a word?) I did this last night and had the best dreams and my mood shifted.

Earth Energies Now–checking in

Empathically it feels like the energies are still, calm, quiet. Perhaps this is desperately needed after experiencing such strong energies in the last few months that have done a number on most of us! I’ve been having many dreams in the astral of choosing and picking what I want, often in the subject of shopping! I think we are preparing for what is next and we have a choice what that will entail. My Guides tell me to take the time out to decide which direction to go in, and always, the message is to go where there is the most energy for you. I find lately, when I pursue my “head” ideas only, I am bored, lifeless and even annoyed. Yet, the heart ideas peek through–experimenting and playing with color, writing, making books, playing. Those are the ideas I need to follow. I am very impatient by nature, so of course, I want to know what is next RIGHT NOW. It feels like the energies will pick up by the end of the month, going into February. Lots of forward movement and excitement. Right now there’s the lull–the preparing.

The essence of choice right now? Yucca for focus and for following your purpose or path.

Don’t play small!

I’ve been getting the same message from my Guides, Don’t Act Small. Many of us are receiving this message–to embrace our bigger selves. We are all huge spirits and souls! There are so many ways to act smaller than we are. This message really rang clear recently.

Yesterday was our New Year’s celebration for the Prescott Healing Arts Association. Two lovely members were to lead the group with a guided journey and a labyrinth to walk. I was guided to introduce two essences to the group and talked with our president about this and we agreed that I would start the meeting by passing around the two essences. She felt that since I was guided to present the essences, someone who would come to the celebration needed them. Long story short, after we added another presenter, the presenters had a meeting and decided I was demoted to the greeting desk instead because there wouldn’t be enough time for my presentation. The experience of being left out and slighted greatly upset me. As I pondered what happened I heard “don’t play small!” The message was in my face! Perhaps I had underappreciated my gifts and what I had to offer the group.

I am finding that lately I’ve needed my lessons in my face to “get” them! After much deliberation and talk with the president, we went back to our original plan, and I presented the essences to the group in the circle. Later, I had many folks who came up to me thanking me for the particular essence they took. (I brought Zinnia for fairy joy, and Mexican Poppy for restoring your power center). Indeed, I was meant to bring those essences that day and my message or purpose was just as important as everyone else who was there.

NATURE TOOL: Salvia

I am starting a new column within my blog: flower essence and Nature tools for support. I have learned from my Guides (Fairy and otherwise) great, natural tools to support my sensitive system.

Today’s focus is Salvia Potion. This lovely purple plant grows in the fields and in many of my neighbor’s lawns in Arizona. It is tall with bunches of tiny purple flowers. Salvia is emotionally calming, great for this kooky & sometimes dramatic holiday season. This essence is also good for detaching from others’ emotional dramas, and of course, our own. I’ve taken this essence in the middle of an emotional melt-down, PMS, and in trauma.

How’s it feel? I feel calm, and the emotional edge has been taken off. I am also in a more balanced place so I can detach easier, and see the higher picture.

Order at our store. (Our beginner class-flower essence introduction– in Fairy School is also being offered this January.)

Earth Energies now

So, what’s going on in the world now? I think many of us who are sensitive are feeling lots of changes in the air. If you are empathic, you are probably picking up on a great deal of free-floating fear that may be bringing up your own. I have felt a great deal of change in my own life wanting to be stirred up! On a positive note, my talks with my Angels & Guides has increased. I wanted to know why my feeling of lack of support lately was originating. Imagine my surprise when I was pulled outside of myself to see the big picture! I was shown and taught that I came here to SEE what happens when there are many conditions place on me with a delayed or lack of reward. I needed to learn how to reward myself, and once again, focus on what feeds and nurtures me and gives me the most joy (a frequent Fairy teaching I’ve received).

I love these big picture knowings from the Angels, but they it is not always easy to make that shift in the practical world, is it? I was advised to work with the OAK tree to help with this shift and all the crazy shifts I was currently experiencing in my body lately, since the lunar eclipse (darn moon feminine energy!)

Negativity–someone else’s poop

How do you know you’ve been exposed to negativity? You feel bad. Out and out bad. It can be your own worst thoughts, messages from childhood, other people’s poop, violence on tv, or even someone else’s aggressive behavior.  When I encounter negativity, whether the words were “well-meaning” or not, my head will hurt right in my psychic spot. If I ignore that feeling, the ache will increase. If the room is filled with negativity, my stomach may even hurt. Our bodies are instant barometers of what is good for us and what is bad. I love how simple it can be. For instance, a friend gives you a criticism. If it is a truth, it will resonate. Your body may tense for a moment, but then it will relax a bit in that truth. If it was someone else’s poopy disguised as help, this is how it will feel: BAM! OUCH! YUCK! You may even feel shame, bad, and you will lose energy like you are standing in quicksand. You’ve been just been doused with negativity, regardless of how well-meaning it was, your body knew the truth. Don’t make your self wrong–that feeling you had is right. Run away! Don’t walk to the nearest exit. Create a boundary this minute. Put up that wall.

My Guides taught me that it is perfectly okay to walk away and leave a room. My husband and I were once in a room with a doctor who was supposably helping our daughter. He began to speak pure drivel at one point and was not listening to us, lost in his own world. I remembered the Guides advice and a good friend that told me I can always leave to say I’m going to the bathroom. No one disputes that. I excused myself with that excuse in hand, and never came back! I headed straight to the car (after telling my husband what I was doing). If I stayed one more minute arguing with that man, I would have suffered. He didn’t care, he was oblivious.

It helps to know that many times it IS someone else replaying their own poop, so then you can detach and walk away. To the sensitive, you’ve usually picked up a bit anyway, so walking will help you detach and see what is yours and what isn’t. With the Nature Spirits advice, I made Pumpkin essence, which is great for clearing out others’ stuff after you’ve picked it up. This has been a God-send many times over.

And one more thing, always look for intentions. WHY is someone saying something to you? Is their intention good? To really help? Or is it so they feel superior? Like the “friend” who corrects your spelling when you share your intimate piece of poetry? (Again, that’s someone else’s poop).

Validation

For validation on my “rest” entry, I walked by a conversation in the library and picked up only a few words loud and clear. The woman said, “When you rest, you have a better outlook.” At first I thought she was talking to me. I had to laugh out loud. This was a message I needed to hear. I needed to go be still for awhile to hear guidance. I’ve been too lost in the noise in my head. To reinforce the message, the Universe sent me another one. I opened our side door to find a praying mantis the size of Detroit. I looked up my animal cards and the mantis represents being still! I think when you hit a point where you are spinning your wheels, worrying, upset, angry, it probably means you do need to stop for a moment and take a time-out. I find a few flower essences really help me to stop pushing myself and relax–Desert Willow tree, brings in the feminine energy, Anthurium essence, balances out that excess push/male energy (oh, wow, wouldn’t it be great to give the world that right now???), and Arizona Poppy, to stop my obsessive worrying!

On another note, had a great animal communication reading yesterday. Giving this reading reinforced to me how much our animals are aware of their physical illnesses and even what would help themselves.

Animal cards

I just did an animal card reading and picked two appropriate cards–Dove, which is moving between cycles and worlds and Swan (new dreams and new realms), which confirms that I am in that in-between state, where you are leaving the old, but the new hasn’t arrived yet. I bet most of us are in that boat. It is so tempting to do the old stuff, isn’t it? Harder to just have faith the new will arrive shortly.

Well, I just checked out the energy alert and almost FLIPPED OUT. Being super connected to the earth energies (and only finally now how much I am!), I had mentioned that my female self was going a little wacky. In Karen’s email alert she talks also of the feminine energy coming in, validating what I’ve heard. I’ve also noticed I am being forced to rest and do nothing, so hard for me because I constantly pushing and pushing. She writes, “It is about being. If we try and make anything happen right now, it can feel like navigating through quicksand.”

I honestly wasn’t a believer in all this woo-woo stuff. I am rather analytical. Prove it me! I always say. Be careful what you ask for. I am becoming so much more open as I change and experience some odd stuff! Go check out Karen’s alert at: http://www.whatsuponplanetearth.com/august26.2007.htm
