In care
Held in care, in a place where compassion softens set pathways of thought, will it be found. In the hush of a silent night, where the face of the stars smile upon the land, will you sense it.
In the breath that travels the worlds, that clears the way for a new flow of energy, in this simple opening can new possibility rise to meet you. Continue reading
Moving
Imagine you are on the verge of moving into a new home. You have packed up all your belongings from your previous address and are about to make the transition from one dwelling to another.
Imagine the feeling this creates within you as you have a sense of where you are going to, having tasted the space you are about to inhabit, yet still feeling the mystery of making this space more real.
For child this is where you are in terms of your spiritual journey. You are on the threshold of moving into a new place of existence and you can sense this in moments you feel a pull toward a new reality, when all that is familiar and habitual bows down before a greater truth. Continue reading
New beginning
She comes into your dreams at night, into your waking moments in life, in times of crisis. She brushes against you like a breeze against the leaves of a tree, causing a soft vibration that moves you from sleep into gentle awareness.
She is nameless and formless till the moment she reshapes your posture and calls you by your essence name. And then she is gone, leaving her eternal mark, even though on one level you forget and resume your habitual posture, answering to a name that belies the depths within.
She is the mystery of soul, the beauty of the unknown. Continue reading
Simplicity
I come before you as simplicity and I touch your heart.
I touch it as a breeze would clear your mind. As a flame would melt the walls of division. As rain would cleanse the past. As the sun would warm you into the magic held in each moment.
I come to shepherd you home. For you to sense the path of return, where each step taken leaves a golden trail in the heart … opening a window to welcome in the touch of soul … transforming the haze of distraction into the silent breaking of dawn.
I am simplicity. Simplicity in the complexity of life. The gentle edge that protects the life of the child, that raises the sword of love where the forces would war for dominance.
I ask you now to feel this simplicity in your heart as the beginning of love, in your mind as space, in the cells of your body as a guiding intelligence. I ask you to question the complexity that shrouds you and come take my hand, feel my rhythm, experience my release.
I am a vibration
A single pure note
A lantern that lights a way forward in the living of life.
Presence
Feel my touch in the centre, in the still pool that holds you steady, in the calm breath that softens your body.
Feel me in the colour of a flower, in the freshness of the wind, in the dappled light that filters through the leaves of a tree.
Feel me all around and know you are not alone. For I am presence.
The presence that exists in nature. The presence that breathes through your body and gentles your thought, that asks of you to come back to simplicity, to your next breath, to the moment, to now.
Let melt the past, the dissolving of hurt and pain into the richness of what now can be created from each and every suffering. Let shine the light that pierces through the clouds of illusion and kisses the earth in warmth and hope.
Feel me
Feel the presence that rises in your moments of awakening, that frees you from the world of form alone and blends you into the wondrous realm of creatorship where all is made new.
A new breath
Released to birth the awakening, I give you a new breath.
I place it in care in the warmth of your open hands.
I give this new breath into you, softly as a breeze and surely as the sunrise.
I give it in grace that you might feel the might of what is on the brink of revealing, the beauty of a way still hidden, finding its steps upon a path uncharted.
I give this breath as a drop of gold into the purse of your heart, that you might know the richness of the moment.
I give it into you that your mind might expand, inviting in an intelligence woven through the stars of the cosmos.
I give this breath
I simply give it
And I ask you to breathe
To open and receive
And give of a new expression into the body of earth.
Awakening
I will walk with you into what you dread, into your fear, into your journey of forgiveness, into your moments of peace and balance.
I will walk with you, child. No matter what colour of the spectrum you experience, I am with you, I am beside you. This truth is largely unrealised as in your sleep you let go of my outstretched hand. But know my hand is open, ever-ready to reconnect with yours.
I will walk with you through troubled waters, where you have felt pulls so strong you have been powerless. I walk with you in the sense that you are not alone, as all about you dances the light of new possibility.
I am with you in your solitude, where your only companion is a confused mind, the thoughts of which seek to erode your trust, taking you further and further away from wholeness.
I am with you and your relationship with a friend or partner, sounding the notes of release, so harmony and understanding may flow and new purpose rise as a wave of beginning. For child, you are both ending and beginning in the moment and this time of testing is to allow you to prepare for more of what is yet to come.
Like buried treasure you sense a fleeting richness of understanding and then are lost again, unsure of what direction to travel. And yet always do I say “Remember. Be present. Experience this moment you exist in now and lift to receive the ever-moving, ever-renewing breeze of awakening”.
Come into me. Take my hand. Reach into the beautiful space of release. Let go the past and the myriad pathways of your thought. For as a child who lives in the moment, may you harness your life’s experience and growng understanding, expressing now your thought or action from the balance of what you have known releasing into the unknown of now.
Feel my touch
Know my breath
Walk with me
Walk in truth and know you are free to create the fabric of love as you weave an awakening into all you do.
Into being
I am in each moment
Each breath you take
Each sigh you release
I am the silence that whispers through the complexity of life
That speaks another language
That opens you to a vast beyond
I am the change that happens in the cusping of night and day
And for a moment light and dark are held in balance,
Dissolving into one another
I am before you as messenger
Reminder of another self who rises up from the mists
And weaves a new colour into the fabric of your life
I am simple
A reflection of beauty
An order of life not bound by the hands of time
I am
I am
I am now
And I call you into presence
I cal you into being
The word
I move as an eternal spring beneath the surface of the land –
a living source of compassion
I seep into your muscles as an expansive breath
Wooing the mind of distraction that it might simply drink from the well
of my heart
I awaken the sleeper within you, allowing new eyes to look out upon life
And I relax your mouth and your cheeks, softening the tension held,
built over times passed
I am with you
Simply with you
Beneath the surface
Within your heart
I pour forth the chalice of the new waters
And I watch as buds of new understanding begin to expand
Feel me
Know me
Allow yourself a stepping not taken before
And in the mystery of the moonlight
Where the holy feminine places her mystical veil upon the thoughts of man Will you feel my touch coursing through you –
A river of intuitive song singing out
Whispering melodies of the true heart as it comes to speak the Word
Grace
Rest, child
Rest in the arms of grace
Allowing for a new care to deepen the beating of your heart
To touch the places hidden from view
Begin, child
Begin again in the arms of grace
Let her crown of simple flowers be a scent that lifts you
That awakens you to the breath as you inhale, releasing again into
new beginnings
Reach, child
Reach up to be embraced in the arms of grace
Feel not alone but gently supported, guided by the air as you breathe
of its mystery, as you breathe-in love
Be, child
Be in the arms of grace
Be one with her beauty as in surrender you become more of who you
truly are
Live, child
Live in a state of grace
Sip of this beautiful simplicity and know the joy of trusting in the
stillness that is as an ocean within your heart
Rest, child
Begin again
Breathe again
Be again
Live again
And give thanks for the moment
Give thanks for now
