We Need Each Other to Fly

2012-01-01T11:25:00.002-05:00

This Christmas has been the most bittersweet one I can remember – filled with both loss and blessings.

My grandmother passed away on December 23^rd, quietly taking in her last breath and beginning her journey back to Spirit.

This past year with her has taught me a great deal firsthand about the true meaning of compassion and loving unconditionally – with no expectations, to just give because someone is in need.

My grandmother lived her life as a tortured soul, so much pain buried within causing great instability, drama and pushing people away.

None of that really seemed to matter to me in her final months as I followed my heart to be present for her even when she wasn’t. It was sad and painful to watch her slowly fade away, to be sure.

Interestingly enough, her heart turned out to be much stronger than any of us imagined. When everything else deteriorated, her heart continued to beat strong, right up until her final moments.

Maybe, just maybe she was capable of loving far more deeply than she showed us in life. When I think now of myself and how I have not behaved lovingly, it is because I was carrying pain in my heart and the way to bury or protect it was to keep people at a distance. But, that doesn’t mean I don’t love those in my life – because I do, deeply.

I feel like I’ve learned more about the path to enlightenment this year than any other years previously; striving to know and be one with Spirit, God, the Goddess for the past sixteen years. Perhaps all the inner work has led me here – rather, led me back – here, in my heart; where there never was any separation, only the illusion of it, a forgetting.

Buddha tells us the path to enlightenment is ‘The Middle Way’, living a life balanced in the practical, the physical, and the spiritual.

I would add it is to fully live the pain, sorrow, love and joy that is put in our path. To be the victim, the martyr and finally the hero by claiming our experiences as our own and rather than drowning in them to finally seek and find the gift, the blessing in every situation.

To heal our hearts, allow Spirit to show us how to reawaken it and live deeply, live truly, live and love well, in each moment.

I’ve lived many a year swallowed up in my own life, looking for healing, for answers, for empowerment.

Yet, where did I find it? In the selflessly giving to others in need with no expectations of what I would get in return or how I wanted them to behave.

The healing just came. The answers just came. The empowerment just came – in the letting go of seeking and in the being and giving; present in my heart and through the power of love.

The path to enlightenment is simple. No complicated tools are necessary, no fancy breathing, visualization, or extended hours of meditation is required.

It is available to us in the living of ‘The Middle Way’; day-to-day living, present to our growth, experiences, healing – being awake and aware, living and loving with an open heart, and with a desire to acknowledge the sacredness in all that we do, who we are being, and the gift of life.

I invite you to make 2012 the year you commit to seek out and discover the gift or blessing in situations you are presented with that trigger pain, anger, frustration, expectations of others, retreating or pushing those near you away.

There is always something of value, a learning, a gift – find it and let gratitude fill your heart. Let it transform the way you see and experience life.

My grandmother is a part of me; her pain has been my pain. Now that I recognize how I’ve carried her defensive and protective mechanisms forward I can change my experience of life, thereby changing future generations in my family.

On Christmas morning, following a beautiful meditation I chose to be the change. I hugged freely; I told the beautiful people in my life I love them. I reached out.

It was freeing. I felt a closeness, a richness in these earthly human acts of love that brought the sacred deeper in my heart and soul.

We are here to experience awakening and ascension right here, in these bodies, living an earthly life – through the power of love. We are here to learn from each other, grow together and love one another. We need each other to fly high among the clouds, soaring to the Heavens, within our awakening human hearts.

I invite you to make 2012 the year you make peace with those in your life; your family, loved ones, co-workers – or at least come to inner resolution (not avoidance).

It is in your immediate circle your greatest lessons, growth and blessings present themselves, don’t let them pass you by.

Be the one to rise above the drama. Recognize how and where you feel slighted (or hurt others) and seek the deeper meaning – beneath it all is pain leashed out by a wounded heart and soul.

Be the one to reach out in kindness, love, compassion, and forgiveness. The only thing stopping you is your ego; your need to be right, to be the one who is wronged and hurt.

We are in an era of transformation and rebirth, and your soul is providing you with opportunities for growth. Act upon it and you will be set free. Don’t, and you will be karmically trapped to repeat the challenges and drama again and again, until you do.

If each of us took responsibility for ourselves, reached out and loved unconditionally (accepting people as they are with no expectations) the world would become the place of our dreams.

A world of peace begins with the self and the family.

Spirit is calling us to come together, to help one another, to live, love, laugh and believe in the promise of our dreams.

May 2012 be all that you NEED and may you ride on the cosmic waves of transformation.

Love Awaits

2011-12-13T13:52:00.000-05:00

I remember when my life seemed meaningless and I felt lost, confused, angry and alone. I was so good at pushing people away, judging others, and creating drama.

My relationships sucked and I unconsciously inflicted all my crap onto my young and impressionable son.

Just as my mother and father did to me and their parents did to them and on it's gone through the generations and ancestors.

I am so grateful Spirit woke me up, touched something deep within and revealed there was so much more to me, my life, the people in my life and the world.

You know the saying, 'If I can do it, you can do it too'? Well, it's true.

If I can transform my life into a beautiful expression of my inner essence, so can you - if you want to, and even if you don't - our soul usually finds a way of getting through to us, it's just a matter of how hard it has to smack us upside the head to get our attention.

I'm not saying it's been easy because it hasn't - taking responsibility for your life, your thoughts and actions is work. For me, it's been worth it - a hundred lifetimes over.

What has motivated me to stay the course? To keep digging out the ugly and heavy dirt?

Something did. Some essence deep in the core of my being and when I follow this call, this urging, my heart keeps expanding and the love and gratitude I feel is so overwhelming that at times it makes me cry in release and joy.

The challenges, lessons, and learnings are so worth the effort.

I never imagined the depth of love and happiness I would experience in following my inner soul compass, my Higher Heart. Certainly not from the place of despair and emptiness I once lived.

What I am discovering is this; when I follow only my mind, my thoughts and ideas - it's work. I feel like I'm pushing against the currents without support from the universe. I've done it time and again! Having a passion and wanting to turn it into something it's not meant to be - at least not in the way I can see from my vantage point. The rewards are not worth the effort and it feels almost empty, void of energy.

But, when instead I follow that urging, calling from deeper in my body - it lifts me up, love and joy flow, and it plain and simply feels 'right'.

When I follow the MIND LEAD, it most often results in disappointment, frustration and pain over lost dreams.

When I followed the HEART LEAD, even though there can still be challenges to overcome I can sense they are teaching me something profound and transformative.

HEAD	HIGHER HEART
Fighting upstream	Zooming past rocks
Banging against wall	Dings and course corrects
Little reward	Gifts, expansion, transformation

The energies leading up to and beyond 2012 are demanding change of us. To ask ourselves questions and listen for the answers.

Who am I?

Where did I come from?

Why am I here?

Listen through your body. Feel it. Sense it. Let your gut or your inner soul compass; your Higher Heart show you the way.

When you live in this way you can move mountains, no matter how big or small the calling is. It may be something you must do, be or heal.

Over the years I've taken on many labels and roles - I discovered this year that none of them define who I am.

The experience that defined who I am, to me, was being someone who gave herself fully to loving three of the most beautiful women I know; my mother, aunt, and grandmother. I didn't always feel that way about them, but I followed a deeper calling in being there for them in their hours of need and now I see things so differently.

I learned so much! About them, about life, about love. This is the experience that I feel defined, who I am so far. If I were to pass over tomorrow, I would feel truly fulfilled because it taught me how to love better - it's a work in progress, of course, but it birthed a new me.

Just as when we pass on our crap to those in our lives; sons, daughters, partners, family, so too we can pass on our healing. Our families, communities and the world benefits.

Yes, Gandhi was so right...

"Be the change you wish to see in the world."

The energies of December and beyond...

Release ~ Forgive ~ Let go

Of the past, of your need to feel hurt, be in control, cause pain.

You CAN do it ~ Love awaits for you!

Who is She?

2011-11-29T16:53:00.000-05:00

I have found a beautiful place to live - within my Heart - it is exquisite in devotion to a Divine Love, the Divine Mother and all the many beings of light who serve Her.

Cycles upon cycles we have lived, experiencing an aspect of Her each time through our soul, which has never actually been separated from Her, even though it often feels as though we are. Believing we are separate from Her, our Source, our Life Force is the cause of our deepest pain.

We fall, spinning downward believing we are lost from Her, when in fact, this is not so - we have only forgotten. We agreed to forget so that upon return, our rapture would be that much sweeter; nectar for the soul.

Now, She is calling us back Home. She asks us to remember that Love and Devotion will lead the way back Home - to Her Heart.

We have been fighting amongst ourselves for many millennium. We allowed the suppression of Her, the Divine Feminine Spirit, as part of our agreement to experience and know the dark night, but she is rising from the depths of our soul, our planet, our galaxy, at first whispering and now calling Her emissaries, Her avatars in full force to remember, to share Her Love, Her Wisdom, Her Beauty.

Each one of us has the ability to feel Her deep abiding love that is so profound it can transform our life in miraculous ways in an instant. All it takes is a desire to remember Her, to invite Her into our life.

She will come.

She will remind you what it is to be loved, fully, completely, divinely.

I have not written or spoken much about my trip to South Africa, outside of with those whom I am closest to, but it was profoundly transformative in body, mind and spirit - so much so it took a year to integrate these energies.

I felt Her presence, alive and tangible as any real physical object. With every breath, every step, experience and encounter She drew us deeper into Her womb, Her heart, Her mind.

Her healing powers have continued to work deeply in every aspect of my life.

In opening my heart to Her Presence, I've been reunited with my ailing grandmother, who is now 101 and with whom I hadn't seen in 10 years because of pain she had caused many, but with a passing of an aunt leaving her in dubious care, I followed my heart to do the right thing and stepped in to take over her care.

As a result, I see her life from a different perspective now, the illusion of pain dissolved, I feel a rich soul love for her, my mother and I have bonded in a way I never dreamed was possible, and I am blessed to have an aunt in my life who I have come to love dearly - for I see the blood, sweat and tears of shared traits running through us.

What it is teaching me is this: To love and honour our mother and our Great Mother is to feel complete, whole and divine unto ourselves. It is to feel a solid foundation under our feet with roots running deep, the rich soul feeding our earthly bodies. It is to feel a connection to Source, to all our relations reminding us we are never alone - support and guidance only a thought, a prayer, a wish, a cry, an offering away.

It is my hope that as I live within my Heart, and open to share the love and wisdom of the Divine Mother it will touch you somewhere in your body, mind or spirit and help you to experience rich blessings in your life.

Many blessings and love,

Kiernan

What is Your Role in the Tribe?

2011-11-22T05:41:00.002-05:00

What is ‘the thing’ that comes most naturally to you? Something that flows easily and hardly seems like an effort?

It might be so easy that you take ‘it’ for granted – assuming it’s something everyone can do and you don’t think anything of its significance.

Maybe you’re a gifted mathematician, or love playing with spreadsheets, writing, painting, running races, photography, caring for those in need, a media personality, organizing. Maybe having fun and laughing is your ‘thing’.

My ‘thing’ is healing – the energy just flows; balancing, clearing, healing, and aligning. It’s effortless for me and it’s where I have the greatest ease and confidence. I just naturally trust what happens is right and perfect. But, when I think of teaching others how to do it, I’m stymied because my philosophy is ‘trust your intuition and do what it tells you.’

I did have to work some to get to this place, but once I did it became second nature – so, I don’t want you to think that poof it was just there for you – you did have to do some work to perfect ‘it’.

When something comes to us easily enough after investing in it we tend to shrug it off, not believing it is a big deal, or placing any real value on it.

But, there are people around you who admire your special gift(s).

The question is, do you? Do you see its worth? Do you value it? Are you grateful for it and express your gratitude to your Soul and Source?

I would like you to consider that it’s not just something that appeared in your personal blueprint, but in all likelihood you have been working to master it for lifetimes and now you are finally doing so! You are or have become the expert!

It’s an aspect of your Soul Signature that you’ve incarnated with to express and share with others.

Mentor Challenge:

If you’re not sure what ‘it’ is, ask people you know what they consider as your special qualities.

Pay attention to what people come to you for.

Another way to help you determine your special gift and Soul Signature is to ask yourself, “what is my role in the tribe?” (The tribe being your community, family, or the world.)

Here are some Examples. Are you a...

Visionary	Strategist	Teacher
Healer	Caregiver	Diplomat
Detective	Researcher	Dreamer
Historian	Magician/Wizard	Networker
Muse	Parent	Poet
Writer	Priest(ess)	Prophet/Mystic
Rebel	Revolutionary	Scholar
Storyteller	Artist	Innovator
Goddess	Seeker	Student
Clown	Craftsperson	Pioneer
Inventor	Rescuer	Shaman
Builder

When you know what your gift is, or your role in the tribe, look for ways to incorporate it more into your life, or take it further and make it your mission.

Value it. Honour it. Own it.

The rewards will fill your cup to overflowing!

Many blessings,

Kiernan

Do You Know How to Power Yourself Up?

2011-11-15T06:20:00.001-05:00

When we are born we are naturally imbued with the power of our own life force – our soul essence, which contains the vitality, courage, strength, focus and energy that will enable us to live life to the fullest.

During our early childhood we live fully in the now expressing who we are at any given moment; playing, laughing, crying, screaming, resting – we’re saying either ‘Yes’ or ‘No’ to people and situations given our present mood.

But as we grow older the stresses and pressures of everyday living often cause our soul power to drain away or become unstable. Experiences that instil negative beliefs about ourselves that cause us to feel unworthy, unlovable or unwanted depletes our soul essence even further.

When our power is low, we are vulnerable physically, emotionally and spiritually, and we feel separated from reality, from loved ones, from the world and even ourselves. Often we act out, we try to find something or someone to blame because we don’t know what’s missing or how to go about finding ‘it’.

Our self-esteem and self-confidence is lost. Maybe we’re even suffering from chronic fatigue or pain.

A temporary revitalization of our personal energy can be experienced when we engage in some form of self-care like a healing session, a massage, taking some vitamins etc. But, unless we undertake to reconnect with and build our soul power on a regular and consistent basis our energy will continue to leak and drain away.

Here are some tips to help you build your soul power back up to more optimal levels.

Daily Self-Care

Your life force or soul essence is the part of you that is eternal and your physical body is the temple where your soul currently resides. It is important to take care of this sacred temple by keeping it clean (inside and out), strong and healthy. Think of traditions that honour and pay their respect to the God/desses, Saints and Saviours – we adorn their altars with fruit, vegetables, herbs, flowers, grains – not fast or junk food. Take stock of what food you eat, when and why then begin to replace unhealthy items with clean, local and organic choices. Ask yourself if you are really hungry or if you are trying to fill a void in your life.

Rest when needed, incorporate some form of exercise in your daily routines, get regular doses of sunshine and air, and find a healthy way to express your emotions.

Setting Boundaries

This is such an important one that has a huge effect on our self-esteem and our soul power! Every time we say ‘Yes’ to something we’d really rather say ‘No’ to it drains our energy and we lose our self-respect, the respect of people we care about or those with whom we work with or would like to work or partner with in some way.

Healthy self-esteem and soul power increases by honouring your Truth. Know what your Truth is, speak it and live it.

Taking Responsibility

Stop playing the blame game and reclaim your inner soul power. Being the victim or martyr is a form of self-deception and nothing will keep you stuck in the muck better than blaming everyone and everything else for your problems or not fulfilling your heart’s desires. Whining and complaining, out – taking responsibility and action, in.

Discovering Passion

We all have it! We all have something that lifts our spirits, brings a smile to our face, nourishes our heart – find it and make sure to weave it into your daily, or at the very least weekly schedule. If you don’t know what ‘it’ is make it a priority to try new things, ask your soul to steer things in your direction that will spark your interest and ultimately lead you to saying, ‘YES!’ Sometimes, our passion can come hidden in disguise – so pay attention to things that make you uncomfortable or resist, it may just be ‘the thing’ that will power you up.

Look for the Gift

The champion of positive thinking, Norman Vincent Peale used to say, “When God wants to send you a gift, he wraps it up in a problem. The bigger the gift that God wants to send you, the bigger the problem he wraps it in.”

Instead of concentrating on the problem, look for the gift – you will always find it. Maintaining a positive attitude in any situation will raise your energy and create a leader out of you.

Gratitude

Science tells us that an ‘attitude of gratitude’ is a good health choice. Being more grateful more often makes us happier and more optimistic. Gratitude strengthens our soul power. It also helps us attract what we want, improves our relationships, reduces negativity, improves our problem-solving skills, and helps us learn.

Incorporate Spirit Wellness

Many people including those who have taken the path of healing from wounds of infidelity, abuse, alienation, loneliness, abandonment, exploitation, addictions have gained knowledge, awareness, tools, skills, and still have an inner longing for a deeper love connection that seems to be eluding them in their significant and intimate relationship. What is missing is Spirit.

This is a vital connection necessary to increase and maintain your soul power, after all it is your soul power – your soul essence, it is within you. Learn to build your connection to the true source within, listen to it, honour it and act upon it. Adopting a spirit-centred life is necessary to feel peace, balance, joy, and love regardless of what is going on around you.

Aligning with Your Purpose

We were all born with an innate and unique soul purpose, which when unlocked and activated is the most rewarding and fitting ‘work’ we could ask for. Most people select careers, jobs, and/or businesses for all the wrong reasons and end up feeling unfulfilled, uninspired, until it becomes unsustainable and often unbearable. In other words, it drains our soul power because we are not in alignment with what we came here to do. We’re not in alignment with the natural gifts, skills and talents we were born with and destined to express in the world.

Discover and unleashing your Soul Purpose is one of the fastest ways to build your soul power – increase your life force energy. When you’re living your purpose everything improves; your health, relationships, finances, joy and love of life.

Mentor's Challenge: Pick one of the tips I shared above and try it on for one week. Let me know if you noticed any changes. Shifting one behaviour can shift a lot of other things.

May you fulfill your heart's desires, sing your soul song and dance your soul dance!

Love and Blessings,

Kiernan

If You Could Wave a Magic Wand... What Would Your Ideal Life Be Like?

2011-11-08T05:19:00.017-05:00

More than 2,300 years ago, Aristotle asked of us, “How shall we live in order to be happy?” He wrote that the ultimate goal in life is to be happy and that is the great question that each of us must answer.

Your willingness and ability to answer that question in a way that connects your heart and mind, and then follow where your answer leads you is what will determine whether you achieve your own definition of happiness, and how quickly.

How do you define happiness and success?

If you could wave a magic wand to make every area of your life perfect, what would it look like?

Let your heart and imagination guide you in describing your ideal life.

Imagine… what your ideal business, work or career would look like. What you’d be doing. What sort of company would you work for or even lead? What position would you have? What would you earn? What kind of people would you work with?

Imagine… what your ideal family life would look like. Where and how would you live? What kind of lifestyle would you have? What activities would you like to do? What are your relationships like?

Imagine… what your ideal health would be like. How would you feel? What would your levels of fitness be like? How would you look? How much would you weigh?

Imagine… what your ideal financial situation would be like. How much money would you have in the bank? How much would it take to never worry about money again?

Think about what steps you can start taking today to create your ideal life.

Your magic wand is right there in your own hands – all you have to do is decide what you want and believe you can achieve it.

A common definition of happiness and success is “being able to live your life in your own way, doing only those things that you want to do, with the people who you choose, in the situations you desire.”

As you define what happiness and success means to you, you can see right away the things you need to do more of, and those things you need to do less of in order to create your ideal life.

The biggest thing holding you back from living your dreams is usually your favourite excuses and lack of self-discipline.

Take command of your life.

I encourage you to take some time today to do some visioning and write down your dreams and the things you can do to start creating the life you desire.

Then take action. Do something, do anything no matter how small and get on with it.

Repeat to yourself, “If it’s to be, it’s up to me!”

May you fulfill your heart's desires, sing your soul song and dance your soul dance!

Love and Blessings,

Kiernan

You Have an Important Role to Play During These Changing Times! Is Your Story Holding You Back?

2011-10-31T05:00:00.005-04:00

I am so excited to be living during these extraordinary times!

The energies… the possibilities… are infinite!

I am able to feel this way because I recognized and transformed a core limiting and false belief that I was unlovable – now I live with the gratitude and joy in my heart that I desired for so long.

This is one of the most common false beliefs that people experience. Whether it is believing you are unlovable or another one, it becomes an insidious virus in the blueprint of your life that weakens you, keeps you living small, hiding out, not being able to figure out your passion or purpose, doubting yourself, feeling insignificant and making excuses for your life.

It’s time to let it go. It’s time for YOU to WAKE-UP, to discover why you are here and live your heart’s desires.

I’m here to tell you that whatever Your limiting belief about yourself is – it is FALSE – it is absolutely UN-TRUE.

And, you can decide, RIGHT NOW – in this moment to be and experience your True Essence, your Authentic Self.

Pause for a moment, take a deep breath and feel the transformational energies in these words.

Feel yourself realigning with Your Soul’s Light and Truth.

You are a beautiful creation of Divinity, here for a special purpose, and you have an amazing gift(s) to share.

We are in the MIDST of global change – it’s no longer in the distant future!

The TIME is NOW for you, to step up onto Higher Ground and walk through the Gateway…

into a new life, a new world and shine your Soul Light.

ACTION STEPS:

To help you integrate these words and energies, spend some time today asking yourself what really matters to you, what is your true authentic power, what is your true prosperity, what is your true peace, what is your true love and how do you express these things in your life?

There’s never been a better time to breathe, speak, be and live Your Truth. When you take action to align with your Soul’s Compass the rest takes care of itself with the support of the universe behind you!

May you fulfill Your Heart's Desires, Sing Your Soul Song, and Dance Your Soul Dance!

Love and blessings,

Kiernan

The Eternal - A Poem

2011-09-30T09:07:00.001-04:00

by Kiernan Antares

Ah Rumi…

the One who understands

what it is to be in love

with the Beloved.

Some call the Beloved Him, He, the Father,

others call it Her, She, the Mother,

yet others the Great Spirit, the Creator,

the Universe, the One Source.

They are all the same; the One Heart,

the One Mind, One Thought

which birthed all.

The love runs deep.

It is eternal.

It gives life.

It can be found in the beauty and uniqueness

of each raindrop, each snowflake.

In every gust or quiver of wind.

The marvel of a bird as it sings or spreads its wings

to take flight.

The stars that shine their rays of light,

for us to bear witness

to our origins.

All the flavours of life;

pain, suffering, laughter, joy -

spectrums of the earth school

urging our souls to grow.

Ah Rumi…

the One who understands.

Right Brain Business Planning

2011-09-01T18:07:00.001-04:00

For most of us right brain creative spirits business planning can be a real chore. I've created many in my day having an administrative and project management background but I can tell you, while I succeeded with it on many levels I never found them to be particularly useful once done. Shoved in a binder - never to be looked at again.

This summer I came across Jennifer Lee's book and website, 'The Right Brain Business Plan - A Creative Visual Map for Success'. It was perfect timing as I re-evaluate my life and life's work in preparation for my birthday and new year usually in August. It sounded fun, creative and like a helpful tool so I decided to give it a go.

I must say it was quite an enjoyable process. Jennifer offers many suggestions and real-life examples of various ways of creating a workable and valuable plan. Since I've enjoyed making a few scrapbooks in the past I decided to go with that approach. Here are some pictures of what I created...


My Vision

The envelope contains my Top Ten Values

My Top Ten Values can be taken out and reviewed

These images represent a lifestyle I desire to live

This sheet sums up the Business Landscape - Trends etc.

These two are Business Self Portrait & Ideal Clients

Some Service Offerings

You get the idea - there are other pages with short and long-term goals and projects, scheduling, mission statement etc. Everything needed in a business plan and the best part of this is I can keep this by my desk and review it regularly to inspire me and keep me focused rather than a lengthy, wordy document that will barely be looked at again! Now, this is not something you would hand in to a bank or financial planner but Jennifer Lee shows you how to do all that and has free tips and tools on her website to help you. Please make sure to check her website out.

I thought I'd share some of mine with you - perhaps it will inspire you to create the business and life of your dreams!

Many blessings,

Kiernan

Elixir of Life - A Poem

2011-07-12T20:11:00.003-04:00

by Kiernan Antares

How precious life is

yet it takes a mystery

of God’s work and design

to make us see it so.

Hours, days, weeks

months and years pass

while we blindly spin our wheels

with barely a breath or pause in between.

The sun rises and sets

feeding our life force

yet we are not even aware.

The bond that connects

us to one another.

Your breath is mine

mine is yours.

We would not

could not

hurt one another

if only we understood

the true depth

of the cords

the blood

the elixir

of life

that makes us one.

It takes the winds of change

to see, know, feel

that Love is everything.

Love teaches us

to have and be compassion.

Love nurses us in our

hours of sorrow.

Love lifts us high

on the wings of Angels.

All these glories

ours.

When we cast aside our

illusory stories

join hands and hearts

to feel and hear the

rejoicing that awaits.

Defining Moments - A Poem

2011-05-09T15:49:00.004-04:00

By Kiernan Antares

It is in the simple things

I learn the Truth

of my soul’s Desires

and Essence.

I need not escape to

nature’s bounty for solitude

and healing

to hear the call of my Heartbeat.

I need only to be still,

letting go of the need

to do,

fix or change.

As I lay me down,

spring abounds,

the hustle and bustle of city life

echoing through the open windows…

Yet, peace follows my in and

out breath

in my stillness

as I rest in the tranquility of being.

She who calls my name

in the ringing

of my ears,

and I delight in Her Wisdom.

Light and Love, these interchangeable Truths

are ours for the asking

without striving,

in the letting go of distractions.

Free from tellurian conditions

these Truths can only be realized.

The moments in between

thought and action.

Breathe, Dear One, Breathe.

Be still,

listen,

feel the Light and Love

That is waiting to be anchored

into our hearts,

you and me,

and the world over.

Like stars we shine

blazing trails

across land, sea and sky.

Nay sayers cannot thwart us,

When we unite

in our quest

to Remember and live

our Truth, our Destiny

It has been a very long while since my last newsletter and people have been contacting me wondering what I’m doing and what changes my trip to Africa has brought to my life and my life’s work. The questions that come to my mind are how many times can a person transform themselves? How many times can they experience the fires of initiation and rise from the ashes? How many times can one reinvent oneself?

I am discovering the answer to that is many, especially if you have a life path number of 9 – in numerology it is the number of completion. In real life it means one must get used to a constant circle of friends coming and going as lessons are learned and hearts experience healing.

It means life directions can change and evolve dramatically with each completion of an astrological cycle.

I am approaching one such end and a new era begins in a few months and while I felt in my soul a time of completion following my journey in Africa the time since then has been spent honouring my trip’s teachings and following my heart’s desires to beginning anew.

Shedding the old, learning new (or should I say ancient) ways of living in harmony with my inner self and our Earth Mother.

While it’s exciting it’s also extremely challenging. I was looking forward to this past winter with plans of reading, researching and listening to the call within while taking refreshing walks in the snow to celebrate our variety of seasons. However, some troubles I had been having with my leg in the last few years intensified to the point of being unable to walk for any length of time.

I didn’t mind at first but as the winter wore on so did my patience and disposition. My saving grace was continuing to explore the ways of the old and caring for my plants. The two began to intertwine as I contemplated my experiences in Africa and our group leader Dean Liprini’s teachings that particularly spoke to me from deep within my being.

I feel my soul yearning to live more simply and deeply connected with nature. A couple months ago one of my dreams delivered a message – it was time to let go of my attachment to my comfort foods and take the next step to eating a live raw food diet.

This idea felt liberating and I jumped in whole heartedly – well, it’s having its moments but the challenges have been revealing some interesting insights into the areas where I still hold fear and pain and how we use food to both stuff our emotions down to avoid dealing with life and block our senses to keep us living in the boxes we’ve created for ourselves.

While my body is becoming cleaner, my mind clearer and I now have orthotics to help correct my leg imbalance my excitement is growing and I am becoming more and more passionately convinced that in order for us, as a human race to live in our fullest expression and create peace on earth we must rediscover our love and connection to nature – She gives us live, feeds us, strengthens us, and sustains us. We must learn to live in harmony with Her, in reverence of Her – the giver of life.

My research has led me to learn about permaculture, sustainability, eco-living, herbalism, aromatherapy and the amazing healing qualities of plants in their simplest form. I am astounded and amazed by the advancements (or should I say return) in these areas around the world and my heart is calling me in these directions.

I have ideas brewing on how to integrate this wisdom into teachings and pass them along which I hope to announce in the near future but in the meantime I created a fun blog a few months ago chronicling somewhat my adventures into the raw food living world – I hope you will take a few minutes to visit or even subscribe to my updates. Here’s the website www.awakenedaphrodite.com

Prior to my trip to Africa I had relegated my spiritual growth and the Great Awakening of the Divine Feminine to something I can only describe as being etheric – out there – in the stars, galaxies and cosmos but Her presence in the land, mountains, trees, plants and oceans of Africa was so palpable to me it was like she was right there as a living breathing being; walking with me, holding my hand in love and joy.

Jessica, Elena, Me and Suzy - My Sisters

This was a momentous realization and a life transformational healing; to experience Her as everything and everywhere, right here. This glorious, magnificent and fertile planet that blesses us with a variety of seasons to experience the different phases of life, death and rebirth – the joy and wonder of moving through cycles of retreat and contemplation, planning for the new year, planting of seeds, time of fertility and finally harvesting our rewards. Cycles that our bodies yearn to acknowledge and live by to be in harmony with Her.

Know that it is She – our Earth Mother who is calling to us during this time of planetary change – it is She who beckons us to transform our ways. It is She, in connecting and honouring Her who will guide us and protect us. There is no need to fear the changes taking place around the world no matter how devastating they may seem to be; both the natural and man made ones for they will ultimately lead us to find new ways to live - in harmony with Her and each other.

I’m waiting for the weather it to warm up a bit so that I can go and find a special place in the valley to lie down on the grass – belly to belly – with my cheek pressed up against Her, to give Her an embrace and express my gratitude for the life that She gives me and the love we share.

Many blessings and love,

Kiernan

June 21, 2010 Crop Circle - Living from the One Heart
Courtesy of Crop Circle Connector

Recently Spirit explained to me, while I was contemplating upon my trip to Africa and the earth changes I’ve been feeling, that the path has been made clear for the ‘Shift of the Ages’ – a time when humanity will live in harmony with each other and Gaia. Spirit also reminded me of the knowledge I had and a message I received when I was a young girl, ‘Trust the day will come when all will see with the same eyes.’

There have been many periods over the years when I forgot I came into this life with a vision of the future and I forgot that message from a long time ago. People weren’t ready, people didn’t want to hear or know – but the time has come; some are ready and they are holding the energy, they are leading the way as God or Spirit calls upon them.

The writing of my novel Phoenix Star was a process of remembering that vision. Grace Cirocco, best-selling author and angel who provided the cover endorsement told me that my book would be my legacy to the world – thank you Grace, your words have held special meaning to help me keep the book and vision alive in my heart.

I’ve kept low and quiet on talking about this vision when it returned to me; partly because I lacked faith in myself and partly because I didn’t want to be a target for criticism and ridicule – but most of all I believe it was because the timing needed to be right.

So many deep changes took place within me in Africa which has been heavily testing me to accept myself since my return. Things I can no longer doubt or question; my origins, my gifts, my purpose…

Things we witnessed and experienced on our journeys to the many sacred sites, how Spirit guided us, the stars that were lining up precisely to the moment of our ceremonies – in particular the star Antares; the Heart of the Scorpion and bringer of the energies of transformation held us in steady alignment during the most important of our sacred tasks – there became no more room for doubt.

At the time of writing Phoenix Star there was limited information available about the end of the Mayan calendar in 2012; what was prophesied to happen, what it would mean, or how it would shape us but I knew that it was an important aspect that needed to be woven in to the story.

Higher Beings worked through me as I opened my heart once again to the vision of a new world – how it would come to pass and how it would change us.

An excerpt from Phoenix Star:

“A thunderous clap struck around them. Blinding white rays broke free from their heart centers…

“A tube of White Light erupted up to the Heavens through a grand opening [in the hidden chamber]…

“An extraordinary angelic sound permeated throughout the chamber with exquisite brilliance and clarity.

“They became one with the Light. Vibrating to the highest of frequencies. The angelic resonance infused their bodies…

“they watched as Earth’s energy shield transformed and repaired itself.

“The Light swirled around and through the mountains, the oceans, seas and the lands. Reaching the towns and cities from continent to continent.

“Their spirits watched. Enraptured as Mother Earth gave birth to the Phoenix Star.”

Continuing…

“People around the Earth talked for months about the two days that disappeared without remembrance. With the exception of four people who would never forget.

“Eventually a world filled with chaos, negativity and strife began to experience microscopic shifts of reality in the veil of time as the planet continued to heal.

“Those who were ready, aligned with the higher vibrational frequencies providing inspiration for others to follow.”

I share this with you now because it’s time to share the vision and the message. The time is upon us to change the way we live; to open our hearts to Love, to awaken and remember we all come from the One Heart.

I share this with you now because the Mayan elders have begun to speak in more depth about The Galactic Shift in 2012. This wisdom is also being revealed from a fascinating young woman named Kiesha Crowther also known as Little Grandmother. In this video she speaks of these two days to come and so eloquently explains how to be in peace during this time of planetary darkness while Gaia gives birth to the Phoenix Star.

Kiesha speaks on 2012 from kedarvideo on Vimeo.

In the very near future the way we are living will change dramatically. If you are one of the many of us who are feeling the desire to return to a simpler way of life, to learn to live in tune with Gaia whether growing your own food, plant medicines or reducing your carbon footprint etc. – listen to the call and follow your inspiration.

I encourage you to write to me to share what efforts you are taking to live in harmony with Mother Earth and I will be happy to highlight you and your activities in my newsletter, blog and other social media.

Love yourself and live in the luminosity of the One Heart,

Kiernan

Heart of the Lion

2010-10-05T18:02:00.013-04:00

Africa was everything my heart and soul had been preparing me for and more. It was not a matter of having expectations – I was indeed very much attuned with the energies of this magnificent land long before I even realized it.

I was reawakening and remembering.

People would say to me before leaving ‘I hope it’s everything you are looking for’ but I knew there was no way to convey I was merely responding to the call and it had nothing to do with any personal desires – Spirit was leading the way the whole time.

I knew with every fiber of my being that it would change my life, that it would activate my energies even further, that it would stir something in me that is indescribable to the average person, and that its outcome would alter the energetic balance of not only me but also that of Africa and the world.

I must admit I worried some that it would change me so much that I would not be able to function within the framework of my existing life but interestingly and pleasantly enough it changed me so much that I became more complete and therefore more grounded and centered so that I am able to enjoy the process of steadfastly witnessing events around me rather than be shaken by them.

This was largely due to an incredible healing of my heart I experienced one day – I had found Home – a place I thought was lost to me forever. A place I’ve longed for throughout many lifetimes, a place I was torn from and thought no longer existed. Yet, there it was and it brought me to my knees in recognition, shock and joy.

I had been shown a vision of a symbol in my dreams a week before leaving for Africa and something compelled me to share it with our wonderful journey leader Dean Liprini, who instantly knew where he had to take us.

This place was a portal and to activate it we each took places that called to us – with me in the center. We had already done much work energetically on this journey and so were ready for the alignments that took place.

I had been feeling an incredible sense of freedom and joy throughout the journey so far but it paled in comparison to what I felt after this alignment. The rift in my heart that I was only unconsciously aware of previously felt restored. In reflecting on it now I sense this fissure has followed me from one existence to another. In fact, I feel it on a global and cosmic level – like the broken hearts or damaged DNA within Earth and humanity. Symbolically on the continent of Mama Africa it appears as the Great Rift Valley that breeds the greatest darkness and pain through Sudan, Ethiopia, Uganda, Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo.

I felt like I had been put back together after this alignment – like two pieces of a crystal that had been blown apart but with the rubbing of a lamp a genie magically recrystalized them back into ONE healthy piece.

A process that was necessary in order for us to carry out our next mission the following day in caves at Lion’s Head – a place I spoke about in my September newsletter.

We entered one of the sacred caves and I was immediately drawn to a specific location to sit. The download and activation began immediately – I could not wait for the others to be ready. I had to take my shoes off to fully ground with the land and ocean below. It felt like my heart was a signal and a beam locked on to it – the key was turned and the cosmic heart beat in my chest. Waves upon waves of energy beamed out across the lands and up through the meridian line of Africa connected to this Lion's Gate.

My journey mates, now probably used to my trances and energetic transmissions fell immediately into silence and stillness – together we worked!

I witnessed in awe as my Sacred High Heart was being used by Spirit in this Lion’s Gate to pour cosmic energy into this world. It is beyond our human minds to understand the levels of change this will usher in but I have been told a shift will occur in the Congo in the next eight to nine months that will allow me to proceed with the next phases of my mission there.

These are but a couple of my experiences on our Africa Healing Rays Journey. Spirit asks me to guard some of the other sacred tasks I was given including the placement of some Holy Stones and their locations as they are energetic keys that assist in holding the frequencies of light in Earth’s Grid Lines and must not be tampered with.

I also haven’t even touched upon the love I felt for this land and its people, reuniting with soul sister’s, being drawn to buy a beautiful wood carving of seven women from a woman who turned out to be a survivor from the Congo, or describing the impact Dean’s ways and teachings had upon me, or the instructions I received through a Shaman for the next steps in my life’s work that, while surprised me beyond measure became part of solidifying my beingness into something tangible and whole.

I would like to share an endorsement I wrote for Dean that I hope gives a sense of how magnificent and life transforming the journey’s with him are and will maybe spark something within the reader to SAY YES to being a part of the Great Spirit Awakening in Africa.

Dean Liprini is one of the most amazing people I have the pleasure of meeting. He is a real gift to Africa and this world during this time of transition and transformation.

His depth of wisdom, knowledge and understanding about the ancient peoples and their ways guarantees you will be uplifted and expanded into higher levels of consciousness on one of his journeys in Africa.

Having experienced a Healing Rays Journey with Dean I feel deeply honored and blessed by his teachings. Actually, I’m in awe by his connection to Spirit, the land and all life and it is having a profound and lasting effect on me.

The journey taught me many things; it has shown me where in life I took things for granted and now express respect and gratitude for their presence. It has taught me to have greater awareness for the signs Spirit sends to me to guide, redirect or validate my choices and path. It has also brought better understanding in learning to pay attention and act on messages in dreams and visions.

One of the most valuable lessons was discovering how nature and Mother Earth can care and restore the balance of the mind, body and spirit in various ways. These seemingly little teachings provided by Dean were ultimately responsible for my being able to embrace a message delivered by a respected Shaman that revealed the next steps in my life’s work.

Throughout the journey to sacred sites I was thoroughly aware of receiving energetic transmissions by Spirit awakening me further to higher levels of awareness and consciousness. I could feel all aspects of my being transforming down to the cellular level. One day in particular I received a great healing of my heart that has completely dissolved a lifelong angst of feeling lost or displaced in this world. I cannot begin to express the depth of freedom this has given to me!

So immersed in every moment of every day made this journey unforgettable. We went to bed each night with incredible gratitude and joy for a day fully lived and spent.

How was it possible for each day to be better than the one before is beyond me – because how could perfection be improved upon? Yet, it was!

~ Sacred Sites ~ Spiritual Teachings ~ Deeper Connection ~ Profound Healings ~ Expansion ~ What could be better? For me, this was the ultimate healing and life changing journey – beyond my expectations or imagination.

Thank you, Dean for being such a Great Light, guide and friend!!

If you will indulge me, I would like to share one other moment of unity and bliss connecting with the Table Mountain Goddess hours after getting up at 3:30am to climb up the side of a mountain in the dark for a Spring Equinox ceremony and to honor the drop of the full moon in one ocean and the rise of the sun in another – all in one spot – a magnificent experience!

Like all the days we spent in Cape Town to this point the Table Mountain Goddess was keeping herself veiled from us with a covering of clouds and mist. We traversed upwards in the lift (a hike up and down would take a full day and we had been doing our fair share of hiking already) feeling the damp and cold in our bones we were all on the quiet side as we landed on top of this flat mountain.

Dean was called to lead us to the area he refers to as the Third Eye of the Goddess. It was very mystical and surreal with the mist and fog heavy in the air. There is a narrow passage way from the crown leading down to the third eye area – a descent of about 50 feet. We approached, pausing to offer our respects and descended slowly – feeling each step and its energy within our bodies.

Slowly… very slowly I felt her presence – the Goddess. I reached out with my hands and touched her inner world. I breathed her in – feeling her Spirit deeply alive. It was nothing less than miraculous and magical.

Reaching the plateau we stood just feeling her essence.

Each of us finding a spot we meditated, afterwards learning that we all experienced a Great Light pierce the veils of mist and shine upon us – our own Third Eyes being further activated and awakened.

I could go on and on with our experiences but perhaps I will save them for another novel in the future. I will add that with each spectacular ceremony and experience Dean scanned the skies with a star gazing contraption of some kind that links in with satellites to tell you what and where planets and stars are and every time we were in complete awe with which ones were guiding and working with us down to the exact minute and degree. Astronomical indeed!

I would like to add that the skies cleared to a rich blue around Table Mountain during the last couple of days in Cape Town as I received the messages that brought all the pieces of my life together and to assist me in bringing home the joy of living fully.

Until next time, may peace and love fill your Hearts,

Kiernan

Follow Your Destiny

2010-08-30T13:00:00.001-04:00

With the Africa Healings Rays Journey nearly upon me I feel it is time to go within to explore the caverns of my soul calling me to take this pilgrimage, a journey I might add that coincides with my birthday month leading me into my 50th year, the Spring Equinox in the South and a full moon.

Looking back over the years I can see how each milestone or significant moment has been leading to the next one and the next one… prompting, encouraging, and challenging me to grow, to stretch beyond my current frame of reference and state of mind or awareness.

Of course, this is a natural occurrence as we grow older; being able to see our lives and the world around us from a greater vantage point – the bigger picture. At least, it has the potential to be this if we aren’t too caught up in the drama and illusion around us – in which case, well you know round and round the wheel we go… maybe next life… (keep in mind, however, when we resist or ignore something it must come back around more difficult each time until we pass the tests we set out for ourselves – me, I’m pragmatic – I prefer to get my ‘to do’ list out of the way early so I can enjoy with a free mind and heart.)

So, why Africa? Why now?

In order to answer these questions there are several aspects to explore, perhaps beginning with what feelings draws me most to go on this sacred journey.

As I sift through my inner world the best way I can describe it is a feeling of completion, a returning to an ancient land where it all began for me on the Earthly realms. A land where I forgot who I AM but now come back ready to heal the next layer of schisms and to embrace my fullness on yet another level.

There’s no question in my mind that I am deeply connected with Africa and I would love to spend months or years traveling through this vast and diverse continent - perhaps that is just a romantic notion, perhaps it is the past calling to collect aspects of myself, perhaps it is meant to happen. What I do feel is that I am following my destiny, honouring my spiritual heritage and recognizing I came into this world for a clear purpose.

Just as I answered the inner call to go to Egypt in the North of Africa exactly ten years ago in 2000 to awaken, remember and seed my energies I return for another round in the South.

This excerpt is taken from a book I started writing last winter:

I can still remember the moment I stepped off the bus and the Sphinx came into full view as though no time had passed – yet, it is ten years later.

That moment is irrevocably impressed upon my entire beingness.

My world seemed to spin around me, my breath caught in the impact, my heart raced and everything and everyone around me disappeared.

Every cell in my body was reacting with intense love and recognition. This magnificent lion monument was speaking to me from the past and the future, as if we knew each other intimately, as if I had been a witness to and a part of its creation.

I stood there sobbing with an intensity that was beyond my understanding and anything else I’d every experienced before in this life. I could not stop weeping, it racked my body leaving me almost numb with its release as it finally begun to ease.

Gazing around me I noticed people calling to me and waving for me to join the rest of the tour group I was traveling with. They had moved on, clearly no one else was having the same experience as I.

Commanding my legs and feet to move I walked as if in a trance unable to take my eyes off the beloved stone creature who had just reawakened a cellular memory and began the activation process of dormant gifts that would ultimately guide me back to Africa ten years later to connect the energies to its mate Lion’s Head at Table Mountain.

This visit would assist in sealing the two points of the energy meridian line running from the Southern tip of Africa up through the continent to the North in Egypt, at the Giza Plateau and the Mighty Sphinx.

Did you know there is another Sphinx? An energy meridian line connects these two together. A meridian line that has been damaged and drained but is in the process of regenerating and those of us who are going will be assisting in this restoration.

It begins with ourselves, of course, as we strengthen our own Rod of Power, heal the rifts and celebrate by singing our Soul Song – I suspect that those of us who are going have all experienced challenges in expressing and living our Truths at one point or another and as we heal and seal this hurt with the assistance of Divine forces we do it for everyone as Spirit works through us in this manner.

It will be a journey of healing and further awakening and activations of the Divine Feminine aspects – a time of embracing our powers with greater strength, courage and conviction.

My feet have been tingling for almost a year with anticipation of taking my shoes off and walking the land – communicating with the Great Mother – listening to Her pulse, Her rhythms and sharing mine.

This life quest or mission has so many facets that I believe its unfolding will take years to understand how all the pieces fit together.

In all honesty, maybe I don’t even need to know – just follow my destiny – where my heart and soul beckons me – where Spirit beckons - to work its magic through me and each one of us.

Until next time, may peace and love fill your Hearts,

Kiernan

P.S. I hope to provide occasional updates here while in South Africa so please do check in once in a while and leave comments.

Shhh... Smile

2010-08-23T14:50:00.006-04:00

Buddha teaches us to be quiet, that our words add to the noise in the world. He tells us to pay more attention and live more consciously through the monitoring of how much we talk and what we speak about - do our words add value or do they just fill up the space with complaints, drama and illusion?

Two weeks ago I went off my thyroid medication for the first time in 21 years, with my Doctor's approval after what appears to be some miraculous healing through deep meditation. But I'm noticing all these little things that I'm feeling as my body is releasing toxins and I have to say it's starting to get a little tiring.

Shouldn't it be finished by now? My mind wants to know. It wants to know why, what and when it will end?

Today while driving I was focusing on why I am still feeling off and then I heard a message, "Shhh... Smile."

I paused, then smiled and then I felt peace.

So, when we receive messages to be still and quiet it has more meaning - to be still and quiet within the mind too - not just externally. When you find yourself babbling or obsessing about something in your head... Shhh... Smile (inside and out) and observe how it transforms your inner world.

Since I was a little girl I’ve kept in my heart a vision of a better way to live – actually it always felt more like a memory. Too young to be contemplating such things I somehow knew that one day people would discover this Truth. One day people would wake up and remember that we are not meant to live our lives by the ‘all mighty’ dollar, by what possessions we own, or any number of other things we place value on that keep us distracted from remembering the Path to Love and the One Heart.

I came in with an awareness that during my lifetime things would change.

However, I didn’t know that I would succumb to the numbing influences all around us that tell us how to live our lives, and as a result, I fell into periods of depression because I was forgetting who I was and why I was here, temporarily.

Yet, now I see that all the self and society imposed restrictions and challenges were necessary in order to rise above, touch the Heavens and bring deeper Wisdom to Earth – not just myself but all of us.

Through our pain comes passion.

Through our pain comes courage.

Through our pain comes transformation and love.

I’ve been wanting to go to the Bancroft Gem and Rock Show for the past couple of years and this year I went with Ven. Gunika Bhikkhu for our last excursion together before he departed for his month-long journey in Peru.

I was quite surprised to discover that many of the vendors didn’t even know anything about the crystals and stones they were selling.

At one booth we found a lovely clear Buddha Pagoda that the vendors were telling us was crystal. It did not feel like crystal – it felt like glass and we told them so. They couldn’t verify it, only that they were told it was crystal when they purchased it. When reduced offers were made they resisted; their final words were “We’re in business to make money.”

The feeling that this left me with was the same sad one I had as a child; this is not how we are meant to live and there is a better way. One that doesn’t require us to scratch and claw for our livelihood. One that holds the promise of peace, joy and harmony.

I don’t know where this vision I have comes from but it resides in my sacred heart. I know it’s not only feasible but necessary for the survival of humanity and we must act now.

The very good news is that we don’t have to feel like we have to change the world. All we have to do is wake-up and remember our own beautiful True Essence and that we are spiritual beings.

During our drive home together from the gem show Master Gunika asked me, “Kiernan, what do you want most in your life? What do you really want?”

I’m pretty sure he already knew the answer to this and I debated over how I would express my burning desire. In the end I said, "I want to be of service to Spirit. I don’t care about building a business anymore. I remember now these things are not important in my soul’s purpose or path.”

I want to live with Spirit guiding my every day, my every journey – first and foremost. It is who I AM.

“Ah,” he says “to be of true service to Spirit you must continue to grow yourself spiritually. Do this and share the fruits and people will benefit.”

He reminded me that to grow myself spiritually is to follow the path of what fills me with love and joy. For me, it is Spirit, always. What is it for you?

Basically, I’ve been self-taught with the help of an occasional book now and then but mostly my growth has come from my own mystical and life experiences, heart awakening’s, and through studying and understanding the fundamental principles of alchemy – the process of transformation.

I was quite drawn to Master Gunika when I met him. I could feel Spirit at work and a deeper soul calling. As the months pass and I spend time with him as my teacher and friend I am remembering True Wisdom and I feel humbled.

“The same stream of life that runs through the world runs through my veins night and day in rhythmic measure. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth into numberless waves of flowers.” --Tagore

The fruits I am sharing with you now is that you are responsible for what today will bring in your life - so discover and live the happiness that lives within your own heart and mind, not the path of someone else’s. Do not be distracted from your joy. Do not worry about events going on in the world (unless you are called from the heart and soul level to act) because there is a Higher Purpose for everything that happens – only we cannot see if from this vantage point, but the Heavenly Realms can.

Even when things look dark and lost do not be distracted ~ everything serves the Light, even the Dark.

Know this and you will realize that you do not need to fix anything; attempting to do so will keep you going in an endless circle of problems to fix ~ and this, my Dear friends, is a distraction that will prevent you from discovering the glorious depths of love, wisdom and joy that reside in your very own Sacred Heart.

Embrace and live only your Light, your joy, this will guide you Home.

Until next time, may peace and love fill your Hearts,

Kiernan

The Answer is You

2010-06-28T06:00:00.004-04:00

Do you know that the answers to all your questions about whom you are and why you are here lies within you? YOU are the ultimate source of information about YOU.

Many tools like astrology and numerology can help give us direction but by going within you will find that you already know these things, you just have to tune in to listen and remember.

You are the answer you’ve been looking for. Your Higher Self and I AM Presence is YOU. It is not something separate from you. Your I AM Presence is taking care of you and loves you more than you can imagine. So, in essence YOU love YOU unconditionally, divinely and eternally throughout all time and space, always and forever. You just have to tune in to discover and remember this.

Your purpose, like everyone’s during this most auspicious time in history; astronomically and galactically, is to REMEMBER how BEAUTIFUL and POWERFUL you are. It is to remember that you are a Divine Being.

You are an emanation of God’s Will and Design, here to experience life in human form – you are not separate from God – God is within every cell of your being – it is your lifeforce energy and all that you are.

It is time to REMEMBER and to reclaim your magnificence.

Can you for a moment believe that you are the answer you have been looking for?

Can you for a moment believe that you have the power to change your life and the world around you? That you have the power and wisdom to BECOME deep inner peace and happiness?

YOU are the ones that the prophecies have been talking about to bring peace on Earth. YOU are the ancient souls that were prophesied to be here during this time to transform yourself, your communities and the world.

YOU are the return of the Ancestors.

Mock me or roll your eyes in disbelief if you must, but I assure you this is true and it is possible.

You are reading these words right now for a reason. It is time for you to wake up. This message comes to you from your very own Higher Self and I AM Presence guiding you to be here right now – reading these words.

YOU are the change. YOU are the answer.

The best way to tune in and remember this Truth is through the practice of meditation – your direct connection to Source.

Out of stillness… our whole self arises.

Meditation is a holistic discipline that helps you get beyond the ‘thinking’ mind and into a deeper state of awareness and relaxation where you can access all the wisdom you need to experience deep inner peace, love, joy and improved health.

"Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what holds you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom." – Buddha*

I have had the privilege of working with a Buddhist Monk, Venerable Gunika Bhikkhu, and I am being blessed with the honour of becoming one of his first Ekayana Vihara (Temple of the One Path which is based on the original teachings of Buddha) Meditation Teachers.

Master Gunika is very much in demand to give Dharma talks around the world and he is in Toronto for only a short period of time each year.

When I met Master Gunika, without having introduced myself he looked deeply into my eyes and said, “You are Kiernan. Spirit told me a year ago you were coming.” He then proceeded to chant “Maha Sachi, Maha Sachi…”

I later learned that Maha Sachi is the Sanskrit word for Kiernan, which when translated means ‘Great Wakening’.

It is with great pleasure to announce that Master Gunika will be present for the opening of my Meditation Centre on Monday, July 26th at 7:00pm in Toronto click here for details. This is a very auspicious date astrologically as it occurs on the heels of a "Grand Cross" (7 planets lined up in a cross formation), a “Cardinal T Square” and welcomes a “Lion’s Gate” on this very day (cosmic energy pours through the Lion’s Gate to transform and transmute as the Earth and people living on it moves to a higher level spiritual evolution).

“When He who walks the path of light opens the Second Seal another living creature at the Lion’s Gate invites the Truth Seeker to continue on the path (6:3). The Red Horse follows who is The Great Red Dragon. The Red Star in Scorpio - Antares.”

We are all here to do one thing only which is to AWAKEN, and AWAKEN others by holding this Light. I am here to help you as I AM in eternal service to the One Heart.

With blessings from my sacred heart to yours,

Kiernan

Love is Transformation

2010-05-03T09:33:00.006-04:00

Emerald Buddha in Bangkok, Thailand

The one thing that most people yearn for, above all else is peace. Peace in the world and in their lives. The essence and influence of the great peace activist Mahatma Gandhi still lives amongst us as we cite one of his most famous sayings, “Be the change you wish to see in the world.”

So what does this mean? How do we go about being the ‘change’?

It is much easier to look around us and point the finger to lay blame for our unrest or dis-ease; you are doing this to me, it’s not my fault, the company I was loyal to for years fired me, I don’t have time to get sick―my body is failing me, she/he has such negative energy―I don’t like being around her/him.

If any of these things sound familiar to you ask, “Is this true? Is this really true? How do I know this is true? Could there be a higher purpose?”

Sure, you might find reasons to justify what you are thinking and feeling because being the victim lets you off the hook from taking a look at your own beliefs, thoughts and actions that perpetuate these things, it keeps the old patterns repeating, over and over and over again.

Isn’t that how wars begin? By pointing the finger and blaming the other for being the one who is ‘wrong’? We want to be right and we want to justify our rightness and pain regardless of the consequences, regardless of the people who are hurt in the process.

How can we demand of others, especially our leaders, what we are not willing to commit to in our own lives?
Peace in the world beings with the self―you, the individual. But let’s face it; drama is an addiction―it gives us an adrenaline rush much like drugs and it can be a tough habit to kick unless your desire to experience peace and happiness is strong enough.

In 2012 prophecies this is considered the year that is actually the Tipping Point. It is the year that determines how intense Mother Earth will need to cleanse and purge to prepare herself for the rare astronomical alignment and the passing through of the birthing canal known as ‘The Rift’ in the Milky Way Galaxy in coming times and since we are the microcosm for the world our own inner spirit will go through the same process.

Most importantly it is about righting your relationship with yourself and the key is to pay attention to how it comes to you in the form of many disguises through relationship troubles, job or career troubles, health challenges etc.

Everything that is no longer in your highest good; your programs of fear, pain and suffering that you have held on to will be brought to the surface to heal, clear and release.

Things must break down before they can be rebuilt. This is the process of transformation and no one is exempt from it because this is OUR time―the time is NOW―we are the ones we have been waiting for to become the new spiritualized human.

Light a Candle ~ Illuminate the World

Many people lead busy lives and find it difficult to take the time to develop practices that cultivate inner peace such as meditation but it doesn’t have to be a lengthy or complicated process to unplug from the noise and drama to invite inner shifts. Here is a simple idea you can easily incorporate into your day AND provide you with profound results:

Create a sacred space in your home with something as simple as a single candle.
Begin your day lighting your candle then gaze upon the flame with the intention that it represents the Light within you.
Take a moment or more to reflect on your Inner Light; give thanks to Source for the uniqueness that is you without judgment; only Love. You might even like to set an intention to reflect what qualities you’d like to foster that day and then look for ways to live them.

This simple act nurtures and grows our appreciation for the wonder of life and connection to Source. It helps us to cultivate self-love. It helps us to listen and pay attention to what our bodies and spirits are communicating in subtle and not-so-subtle ways.

It helps us to remember the sacredness of life.

When we begin our day honouring the Light within our ability to love and nurture others grows because we are first enriched. We can go out into the world with a sincere smile that touches and uplifts others who then also may pay it forward.

Can you imagine the possibilities if thousands… or millions… or billions of us LIT up the world every day?

Can you imagine if loving kindness with all living Beings was the WAY of life and not just rhetoric?

Love is transformation…

Transformation is Enlightenment…

Enlightenment towards Nirvana.

It is possible.

It is time to listen, to let go, to allow spirit to show us the way and who we really are rather than trying to force things to happen.

The time is now to restore balance to our own lives and the world. It is time for the feminine spirit of Love to be welcomed and embraced…

To heal and love ourselves…

To feel the connection to all creations and begin…

An era of peace.

With blessings from my sacred heart to yours,
Kiernan

Everything is Going to be Alright

2010-04-05T14:21:00.003-04:00

A dear friend in Australia brought this song to my attention and I think it was a gift from Spirit to help me clarify the message I wanted to deliver this month. This friend is often used in this way, sending me emails with a beautiful message of just what I needed when I needed it – perhaps without even his awareness sometimes that he is being used in this way. I smile because most of us do not realize the impact we are making in the world with the simplest of things.

A smile, a kind word, sharing our thoughts and feelings – simple but filling the space around us with Grace.

Yes, everything is going to be alright. Spirit has been showing me this of late – filling me with so many insights. There is so little we actually need to do but learn to be in our hearts once again.

To know the single greatest Truth; that we are all ONE.

It doesn’t matter what country we live in, the colour of our skin or what religion we believe in – you and I are brothers and sisters and we are living on this great planet participating in the miraculous evolution of humankind.

My journey with Healing for Congo Women has been and continues to be very enlightening. Spirit infused me with a desire beyond anything I’ve experienced before to want to do something concrete to make a difference in the world.

Along this journey my heart and soul experienced deep pain and sadness for the depths of despair that exists among the women, men and children of Africa. I have to admit I almost became lost in this despair but Spirit pulled me up through the silver cord of my life force and revealed the true purpose of this quest; to heal and transmute into Light this individual and collective pain body that keeps humanity trapped in suffering.

You see, the female victims of horrific brutality in the Congo – the Heart of Africa with Africa being the Great Mother of this planet – symbolizes the suppression and attempted destruction of the Feminine Spirit.

Yet, while I say this... one may question – is this true? On one level yes, but on another this too is an illusion.

Everything around us is an illusion – everything that we want to label ‘good’ or ‘bad’. Everything that makes us use the terms ‘us’ or them’ or ‘dark’ vs. ‘light’.

The Truth is every single creation is a spark of the Divine so how can I look at anything and say it is bad or dark? I can’t, not if I live in my heart with Spirit residing there because from this place I understand that every single thing that is occurring is part of the Great Plan to help this magnificent planet and all things living on it ascend to a higher consciousness.

It’s not about whether the ‘Light’ or ‘Dark’ is going to win the battle. There is no battle; only an evolution of our species. We are all a part of the whole. The only battle that exists is within our mind for ownership to say ‘I’m right and you’re wrong.’

As long as we are stuck in labeling things as ‘good’ or ‘bad’ we limit ourselves and our ability to see the Divine in everything we are experiencing. We limit our ability to see and experience the Divinity within our very own nature and thus we continue to give energy to illusion; to the very things we term bad or dark or evil.

In order to make the shift in evolutionary consciousness we must clear our individual and collective pain body’s so that we can love ourselves and embrace the fullness of who we all are as sparks of the Divine.

We hurt, we fear, we have anger – yes. All we must do is have the desire to release them, have the desire to experience and live in peace, love and happiness and miracles will occur.

Messengers of healing are appearing around the world to help us with the task of transmuting these denser energies – individually and collectively – and more of us will continue to emerge in the next while.

The gifts I have been given with Divine Blessings are getting stronger as I use them and each time I do the healing that takes place collectively magnifies beyond our imagination. I am learning to trust that I will be called when and where these gifts are needed and that I can let go of ‘trying to make things happen’ – ‘in God’s time not mine’ - because I see there is an order for which everything is unfolding.

There are others around the world that have been performing blessings longer than I have such as Mother Meera, Braco and Mahendra Trivedi and there will be more coming so rest assured our souls and our Light are being looked after and everything is going to be alright.

There is only right here, right now – just this.

I invite you to take a moment to move into your heart and from this place ask yourself:

1. What do I stand for?
2. Who do I want to be?
3. Why do I want to be here during this time of transition?

Your heart knows these answers, not your mind – so breathe, be and listen; however long it takes is perfect and right for you.

May the Flame in your Heart ignite and burn brightly throughout eternity,

Kiernan

Everything Serves the Light

2010-02-27T10:32:00.004-05:00

I recently heard a phrase, ‘You don’t always get what you want but you always get what you need.’ This concept intrigued me so I decided to give it serious consideration and see what would happen if I applied it in my life.

There is a situation I have been challenged with on and off for several years now. During this time I have used every technique, insight or advice that came to me to try to alleviate or resolve it – but with limited results.

I have dug into every recess, corner and shadow of my soul to discover and heal wounds. I have earnestly looked into the mirror to see what was reflecting back at me more times than you can imagine.

In the last six months I’ve been told on more than one occasion that the issue is no longer mine, that I’ve done my part and it’s time for me to detach my emotional investment in the situation and let it go. Part of this investment was also feeling guilty that with all my wisdom and experience I couldn’t ‘fix’ it.

This latest piece of advice did help tremendously but not completely. Maybe I’m emotionally dysfunctional…

Perhaps you can relate to these feelings…

So upon hearing the words ‘You don’t always get what you want but you always get what you need’ I pondered this particular situation and wondered if this was true, and if it was, for what purpose would my Spirit or the Universe bring it into my life? Why did I need it?

When I reviewed if from several perspectives I recognized a pattern in my life of finding something in each of my relationships to find fault with to the point of obsession and as long as I focused on that pain and unhappiness I was not fully present to step into and live my purpose.

What I also realized was that the situation had to get bad enough (from my perspective) to reach a breaking point. I needed the proverbial ‘kick in the behind’ to get me to fully embrace my purpose of being in service to the world creating change and transformation. If everything was hunky dory I wouldn’t have had the incentive to see there’s more for me than the smaller version of life I had been satisfied with living, even while nitpicking and fussing about something that wasn’t mine to change.

This was a huge aha moment and I could see from a higher vantage point how focusing on pain only creates more pain and stagnation.

It was such a freeing moment – I literally felt my spirit soar with realization and joy.

I love those moments of pure insight. Of course, living them all the time is not always easy, is it? Ah, but that’s where we get to practice our self-mastery.

Can you think of a situation or relationship that is not what you want or the way you want it? If you can, ask yourself ‘Why do I need it? What message or lesson is my Spirit or the Universe trying to help me see or learn?’

Maybe, just maybe you’ll experience a profound moment of insight like I did.

May the blessings of the universe be with you,

Kiernan

Let it Be

2010-02-01T08:00:00.002-05:00

I recently experienced a very healing and touching release of worries and fears that came to the surface―it was a moment I knew would be perfect to share with you.

It’s not surprising really that some hidden anxiety began to make itself known as I am embarking on this mission to help the women of Africa, co-facilitate the Africa Healing Rays Journey and perform Divine Blessings more publicly, because that’s a very common occurrence.

Our greatest life lessons, those things we came here to work through, are programmed to appear just when we are about to step up or out into a new and grander vision of ourselves.

These life lessons are just that, life long challenges we unconsciously create and when we learn to recognize them before they wreck too much havoc or sabotage our dreams we move up the ladder of self-mastery.

These challenges we set for ourselves can come in any number of forms but each of us usually has the same two or three that repeatedly appear. That’s the clue, to ask yourself, what patterns keep coming up in your life.

They can be things like allowing family drama to upset or distract you from your dreams, reoccurring health challenges, uncontrollable fears or feelings of guilt and unworthiness preventing you from claiming your power, underselling your talents and hiding out. These are just a few examples.

When you see your life lesson appear you can actually take it as a good sign that the next step you are about to take is a leap forward and recognizing it for what it is will be easier to work though.

My calling to connect with Africa has come from a very deep place. I committed myself to this mission before I gave myself time to question it and perhaps back away which was a good and powerful step.

However, I’ve been experiencing some physical discomfort and was guided to discover that this was manifesting as a result of a subconscious fear of how this new phase would impact my life on a personal level and in my relationships.

You see, a similar calling took place when I went to Egypt in the year 2000 and this journey resulted in my life being turned up-side-down on many levels, so even though they were good in the long run and in my highest interest I feared for what was to come on my return from Africa.

Now, this is key here, exploring and asking yourself what is it you are afraid of when your life seems to be stuck or you are feeling frustrated, unhappy, facing a physical challenge etc.

'What am I afraid of?'

Sit with this question and allow your feelings to come to the surface―be with them.

Acknowledge them and just let them be―don’t judge yourself for having them. Don’t try to rationalize them or explain them away. Don’t do anything with them.

Just let it be.

That’s what I did and spirit gifted me with a beautiful validation the day after recognizing them and discussing them openly with my life partner (without looking for answers).

I was at Unity Church and we stood to sing songs. The first one was ‘Wish Upon a Star’ and I loved its reminder to have that childlike innocence and belief in our dreams.

The second song was ‘Let it Be’ by the Beatles. Well, I don’t think I ever paid much attention to the words before but my heart opened wider, as we sang.

When I find myself in times of trouble

Mother Mary comes to me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

And in my hour of darkness

She is standing right in front of me

Speaking words of wisdom, let it be.

Let it be, let it be.

Whisper words of wisdom, let it be.

I felt the power of the Divine Feminine touch me once again.

I felt the presence of Mother Mary, whom I’ve turned to myself in times of trouble, embrace me with love and tears streamed from my eyes; in gratitude, healing and release as I let my fears and worries go, having complete faith that ‘there will be an answer’.

Here's a little exercise you can try to help you in this process. When you recognize and feel the fears breathe into them. Place your hand on your heart and take deep conscious breaths with your mouth open. On the exhalation sigh it out - like a deep haaa. Keep doing this for several minutes and feel the release with each exhalation.

In time as we practice this conscious breathing our energy becomes freer, we can breathe easier and love begins to replace fear.

There will be an answer, let it be. Give your worries and fears to your angels, guides, Mother Mary, God or whoever you choose to turn to in times of need.

Love yourself, be gentle and compassion with your heart, your humanity and your ‘imperfections’ and the richness of something greater than yourself will enfold you―raising you higher than you can imagine.

In Light and Love,

Kiernan

LUNA - The Whale Who Reminds Us of the Distances We Must Travel to Discover Our True Selves

2010-01-18T08:01:00.008-05:00

In the week before Christmas I watched a movie that touched my heart and soul called Luna: Spirit of the Whale. The movie was inspired by a true story of a young whale, who, for some reason became separated from its pod and found his way to Nootka Sound near Vancouver Island, British Columbia where he found companionship playing with the people and tourists in the area.

Luna appeared to joyfully engage in his new life, swimming, talking and letting people touch him. He would look right into their eyes and time and again people said they felt like he was looking right into their soul and was communicating with them.

The Mowachaht-Muchalaht people of an aboriginal village believe that Luna (who they called Tsux'iit) was the embodied spirit of the late chief who had passed away only four days before Luna appeared and who had promised them he would reincarnate as a whale.

As news spread of this wonder Luna became the center of a spiritual and political controversy when government officials determined that Luna posed not only a threat to the people he came into contact with but himself as he came perilously close to boat propellers in his quest for companionship. They subsequently announced that Luna should be captured and transported by land to be reunited with his pod, withholding that an option they were really considering was to deliver Luna to a Marineland facility.

The Mowachaht-Muchalaht people along with many others wanted to protect Luna and believed that the federal authorities should not be allowed to interfere and to let nature take its course. As you can imagine, the government officials would not be swayed and issued orders for people to stay away from Luna. This was not an easy task since Luna appeared to be lonely and desperately searching for a place to call home and be loved.

When the time came for Luna to be captured the Mowachaht-Muchalaht people banded together and in their canoes sang to Luna, calling to him and luring him away from the trap. Their plans worked and after several attempts the officials gave up, leaving Luna to swim in the waters.

This was a victory for Luna and the aboriginal people who fought to protect him. They believed that Luna would live until the people learned whatever lesson he was trying to teach and they accepted this awareness as long as his fate was in his own hands.

Is it possible that a spirit can return in the body of a whale? If you watched this movie and the antics of Luna you might just be swayed to believe it can and did happen.

Luna stayed in my thoughts for many days and nights after watching the movie. There were so many themes to consider; how we as humans have become so out of touch with nature and its cycles, thinking we are superior and have the right to decide the fate of creatures from the land, sea and air, destroying for the sake of what we deem to be progress.

Then there’s what Luna represented as a being traveling long distances in search of answers to discover his identity and true place in life. Ultimately, isn’t that what we’re all doing? I know that as a young girl and through a significant portion of my adult life I searched for ways and people through which I could experience and come to know myself, my purpose and where I belong. It can be a long and lonely journey at times but one well worth taking especially when we can let go of what we think we know is true and open our hearts and minds to something greater than ourselves.

While I haven’t experienced seeing a whale in person yet I have been blessed with connecting with their essence on a spiritual realm when I was invited in meditation to merge my consciousness with one called ‘The Ancient One’ who allowed me to feel the depths of the whale’s wisdom, knowledge and grace as overseers of this planet’s evolution.

It was a beautiful privilege and one which I have been guided to share with others through a recorded meditation called ‘What You Are Becoming, A Message from the Ancient One’ in which you are guided to experience an expansion in all aspects of your being, feel the interrelatedness of all life, and receive ancient wisdom from one of this planet’s oldest living creatures.

So, for some reason the spirit of the whale has touched me and Luna speaks to my heart of many possibilities and teachings.

So tuned in to the whale’s energy, the day after Boxing Day (2009) I was restless and every hour turned the television on looking for something to watch only to feel disappointment. On the fourth attempt I found Luna once again!

This time it was a documentary.

Initially I watched it with a little distrust wondering if it would be swayed by the government’s perspective but soon I learned it was created by journalists who worked diligently to remain neutral in the matter―until Luna was left alone after the attempts at capture failed.

The original movie did not continue after Luna’s reprieve so I did not see what took place afterwards and this is where my heart ached for him. The officials would not let up on their ban of people coming into contact with Luna; fines were to be levied so anyone caught interacting with Luna would be charged with $100,000.

This meant Luna swam the waters, up to the docks and around boats desperately searching for companionship, someone to play with him but he was shunned.

This is when journalists Michael Parfit and Suzanne Chisholm could no longer remain unaffected by Luna’s plight. Parfit decided in a moment of gazing into Luna’s eyes that he would, from that moment forward, dedicate himself to protecting Luna by keeping him occupied with companionship out in the deep waters, away from boats and harms way.

However, after a length of time Parfit had to take leave for a few days for a family crisis and Luna’s life here came tragically to an end, killed by a tug boat propeller.

This heartbreak sent shock waves throughout the community and the world and as the documentary revealed left many with feelings of guilt and remorse for the roles they played in the drama.

Was Luna successful in fulfilling his purpose and teaching us something, as the Mowachaht-Muchalaht people claimed he was here to do?

I don’t know the answer to that but millions of people were touched by Luna’s presence and his story and many more mourned his passing.

Surely, we learn something of ourselves when our heart’s open to feel love, we explore pathways of communication between species and learn we are not so different from one another.

May the blessings of the universe be upon you,

Kiernan

2010 The Trinity and A New Era

2010-01-11T13:08:00.007-05:00

~ Expansion ~ Creativity ~ Rewards ~ New Worlds ~

There are miracles in the air―available more to us now than ever before and this year we will see and experience them in ways we couldn’t have even dreamed possible. Hmmm… perhaps like a magic carpet ride?

These are the energies becoming available to us as this year progresses. A new year and a new decade.

We usher in this decade with the fortuitous number of 3 (2+0+1+0) representing the trinity and the Divine Feminine.

2009 was a challenging year for many. Its ending marking the completion of old energies working through us to clear―forcing us to take a good honest look at ourselves, our behaviours and our lives. Whatever we had been resisting or denying in our hearts came to the forefront to be dealt with―all to prepare us to move into a new and higher way of living.

We are being urged to free ourselves from all our limiting thoughts and feelings that have kept us living in fear and clinging to materialistic and greedy desires.

There is no place for these lower dense and base energies as we approach 2012 and beyond.

We are entering a new time line that begins to anchor in the Divine Feminine energies in a more tangible way.

With these energies it’s no longer about the singular in I or Me, or even duality in You and I; the trinity represents the US.

All of us; women, men, children―land, sea, sky.

It is time for us to return to considering the whole and how all of our interactions affect one another.

It is time for us to return to Love in all that we are being and doing.

The single greatest key in being Love is to practice the art of gratitude. Gratitude transform every single moment into one of joy and blessings.

Whatever challenges you are facing―notice where you are focusing on the negative aspects and choose instead to find its blessings and what you can be grateful for, or at least resist judging the situation and yourself and just be in the energy. Allow yourself to be and gratitude will magically find a place in your heart―then watch miracles appear in your life.

This year marks a new beginning and if you SAY YES to letting go of the old patterns, fears and ways of living you will be supported with miracles showing you a path of love and joy. You will be shown where you are needed and where you will find the greatest fulfillment in your life.

If, on the other hand, you choose to resist and cling to old fears, pain, patterns and ways of doing things you will be pushed to your limits―in very uncomfortable ways and that which you judge or fear will persist. Your value system and anything you hold dear will be tested.

The choice is yours and yours alone to make. Will you choose Love or Fear?

As the year and decade begins take time to reflect, get in touch with your soul’s desires and set your course―keeping in mind that what you choose is setting the stage to take you into 2012 and beyond.

Yes, there will be a beyond―hold the Light and the vision for transitioning into a new world; a golden era―and so it shall be.

Dare to dream and let your Soul Light guide you. Then be open to experiencing magic and miracles!

Last summer I dared to dream a bigger dream. I created a new vision, business blueprint and an expanded website reflecting all that I believed I was meant to be. But little did I know that my Spirit had something even better and more magical in store for me.

Something that my mental and logical processes could not grasp―but when it appeared my heart, soul and Spirit ignited into a Sacred Fire within and I knew my mission and destiny had called.

I am speaking of Healing for Congo Women; the call to transform the Heart of Africa one woman at a time. I am also speaking of connecting with the land and its ancient wisdom by taking people on journeys to explore sacred sites where we will perform ceremonies to send and receive healing energies through the Diamond Light Grid.

Yesterday, while driving I thought of Africa and how it might feel to take my shoes off and walk the land―in that moment I turned the radio on and was embraced with the lyrics of TOTO “I bless the rains of Africa”―how perfect and divine!

I chose this particular version of the song because lions hold a very special meaning as protectors of our planet and its web of light.

I encourage you to release all that no longer serves you and open your heart to allow the Divine Feminine work magic and miracles!

Across land, sea and sky our spirits are beckoned to share our Light and Love.

May the blessings of the universe be upon you,

Kiernan

Soothing Music for the Soul

2009-12-09T09:28:00.003-05:00

Deva Premal and Miten are of my favourite devotional singers. Let your body sway to the vibrations of love and invite spirit to flow through you as you listen.

Here are the lyrics:

Brahma nandam parama sukhadam
Kevalam jnayana murtim
Dvandvateetam gagana sadrisham
Tatvamasyadi lakshyam
Ekam nityam vimalamachalam
Sarvadhee sakshi bhutam
Bhava-teetam triguna-rahitam
Sadgurum tam namami
Salutations to the inner guru, the inner
guiding light.
Who is the embodiment of pure delight,
Who is the giver of supreme happiness.
Who is beyond the dualities of this material
world; Who is as infinite as the sky. Who is
the sole aspiration and goal of life;
Who is unique, eternal, pure, unwavering.
Who sees with the eyes of wisdom;
Who is beyond emotions and beyond the
three gunas (binding aspects of our nature)
- Sattva (bliss), Rajas (animal instinct) and
Tamas (lethargy).

Enjoy!

Do You Believe in Angels?

2009-11-30T19:52:00.005-05:00

Within these words is a very special gift for you, take them in, feel them like an embrace of a glorious angel's wings, wrapping themselves around you.

Feel their warmth, glowing with a love growing stronger within the stillness of the moment.

Breathe in these words with a single-minded focus, as if they might be the last you ever read.

You are a beautiful spirit experiencing life in a myriad of ways; moments of happiness and love mixed with moments of pain, anger, sorrow - each perfect in their own way - revealing the depth of your whole being.

Has anyone told you today you are loved?

Has anyone told you today you are a magnificent expression of Divine Love?

I am here to tell you these things, today. Even if we have not met personally I love and honour you, just as you are - because that is how God, the Great Spirit, the Universe feels about you and we are all one. I am one with God - as are you - and so I feel the love flowing through me for you.

God works through each of us, in its own unique way and it is our purpose and right to discover, create, and express our joys and our passions with the world around us.

Let go of your fears and doubts, love yourself as you want to love others, listen to the call in your heart that beckons you to remove the barriers you have placed around your heart, and live the life you most desire.

One small step forward at a time on the path that is meant for you will give you the confidence to let your Light shine.

Do not judge or doubt yourself for these are forms of self-sabotage that keep you living small, where it is safe and comfortable, even in its cage. But this is not where you are meant to remain.

There are no limits to the brilliance you and your presence brings to the world - begin today.

Share something of yourself with another, a fear, a hope, a dream, and feel the creator working its magic in those who you touch.

When one heart opens, another follows, and another, and another...

In this month of December, a month that often brings more stress and busyness to our lives, I invite you to join me in slowing down to experience a deeper sense of love that is available to us in each moment.

Call upon the angels to help you find more love, healing, and joy during this holiday season and they will work wonders.

After all, they sent me to you today to gift you with a moment of stillness, beauty, and grace, filling these words with blessings - all you must do is SAY YES to receive and your heart will experience an expansion, an opening to glimpse your true divine essence.

You are beautiful.
You are loved.
You are perfect in every way.

During this month look for ways to reduce what adds stress in your life. Honour your needs, say no, if you must, to requests of your time and energy. Be diligent, compassionate, simplify, and you will be rewarded with a greater sense of love and joy.

This is a wonderful time of year to experience magic and oneness - give yourself this gift.

On the wings of angels, from the stars above and the earth below, through my heart to yours:

May the blessings of the universe be with you every day
May the Light shine upon you as you travel along life's way
May your heart be free, your spirit strong
May all you meet do you no wrong

May your senses be tuned to God above
and most of all may you know his Love
- Pamela Covert-Slater

Peace, love and blessings,

Kiernan

My Prayer for the Heart of Africa (Part 8)

2009-11-27T08:24:00.005-05:00

Africa, and the Congo in particular is of the darkest and most dangerous place on this planet but it also holds the greatest potential in transforming the world and helping to give birth to the ‘Phoenix Star’.

The greatest darkness can transform into the greatest Light.

Great pain can transform into Great Love.

Can you imagine? This thought fills my heart.

My Prayer

Let us hold the vision to see the entire continent of Africa breathe in the Light of the Holy Spirit and exhale it deeply into the world.

Let us see the hearts of those inflicting pain and those enduring pain recognize and embrace the Light and Love of the Divine Feminine.

Let us see them put down their weapons and fall to their knees in remorse and sorrow. Let us see them resolve to make amends, restoring peace, love, and unity to this war-torn nation.

Let us see the survivors open their hearts and rest in the embrace of the Divine Mother. Caressing, soothing, and healing all aspects of their being.

Let us see their Light within shine brighter and brighter, retrieving their fragmented soul aspects, and restoring them to their original magnificence.

Let us ask the Divine realms to breathe Light and Love into the hearts, earth, and crystals of Africa, blessing and healing every living creation. Let us also ask for blessings upon the entire planet and all its peoples to assist us in awakening our hearts and healing our wounded souls so that we may find the courage to create a new world filled with peace, love and joy―living as one great family.

Can you see it?
Can you feel it?
Spirit working, let it work through you.

Hold this vision steady in your heart and with our combined, unified intent it will come to pass. More magical than we can imagine because that’s how the Power of Love works.

Together we can change the world.

Let us listen, respond, and take action to the call from our sisters in Africa.

Let us show them we care and that they matter.

Let us help them become the bright future of Congo and of Africa. Let us help them become the change we wish to see in the world.

In helping our sisters we are helping the world because we are all connected, we are all family, and the breath of God flows into and out of each of us―in one big cosmic rhythm.

Let us remember our divine essence. Let us remember we are never separated from each other or source―we are One.

So be it. So it is.

Namasté

Blessings,

Kiernan

Our Earth Heart, Mother Africa (Part 7)

2009-11-25T07:48:00.004-05:00

Pathways of the Sun by Dean Liprini, researcher and geomancer who has spent more than 15 years researching sacred sites in southern Africa.

Description

After centuries in hiding, there is a Great Spirit re-awakening. An Ancient ‘Light Grid’ surrounds Table Mountain, formed by a network of sacred sites, burial caves, and geometrically aligned marker stones. Some of these monolithic stones are fashioned into human faces, with eye-holes mysteriously aligned to interact with major solar and lunar events. Following these “Pathways of the Sun”, we are given an insight to the sacred birthplace of Humankind and perhaps even a glimpse to the birthplace of Human Spirituality and the interconnectedness of all things.

Excerpt

South Africa is described as our sacred womb and ancestral birthplace. The birthplace of humankind―holding the blueprint of humanity and also the blueprint of human spirituality.

For hundreds of thousands of years she has kept her secret hidden until the world was ready for her reawakening.

The ancient peoples of Africa spread out over the earth, building temples and monuments:

Machu Picchu of South America
The Aztec and Mayan temples of Mexico
Stonehenge in England
The ancient pyramids and temples of Egypt, India and Tibet
Temples of the Gods, Greece

Now she awakens to share her wisdom and knowledge with us all.

Sacred stones hold light and memory and consciousness of ancient people who created them. These stones are located along the pathway of the sun and create a 6-pointed star.

It is interesting to note that the geometric pattern described by the Sun’s path is a perfect diamond shape – the symbol of the Earth Mother, according to South African sangoma (soothsayer) Baba Credo Mutwa.

These sacred stones are speaking to me, and reminding me of something that happened to me late last spring (09).

A friend of mine was attempting to scan my energy field to help identify why some energy has been blocked in my left leg. While approaching the area of my throat an incredible thing occurred. I witnessed through my third eye (one of the most clear and powerful visions I’ve ever had) a metallic shield that looked like an African collar zoom up to cover my entire neck area.

Instantly this loud and forceful message came through, “Information was stored here through an ancient sacred ceremony and no one may have access to it.”

I feel in my heart and soul that this is connected to Africa, the sacred stones along the Pathways of the Sun, the women of Congo, and the Great Awakening.

Part 8 coming next on Friday, November 27th my Prayer for the Heart of Africa

Blessings,

Kiernan

Pathways of the Sun, An Awakening (Part 6)

2009-11-23T08:51:00.002-05:00

The story continues, back in 2008, a few months after coming into possession of the Ajoite crystal and Ocean Jasper stone during a conference I attended in Michigan. There I listened to a speaker, a man by the name of Dean Liprini, giving a presentation based on his book and DVD titled Pathways of the Sun, An Awakening. He took us on a virtual tour of ancient sacred stone markers located in South Africa that follow the pathway of the sun.

It was one of those moments where you feel something deep within communicating yet I didn’t know why or how I somehow felt connected to the information he was showing us. So deep was this working that I found it difficult to pay attention to what he was actually telling us.

The next day, feeling dazed and disoriented I went to his table to speak with him. Poor Dean must have thought I was rather empty-headed because really all I could manage to say was that I wanted to help promote his work by recommending it in a newsletter edition.

He was happy to hear this and gave me a copy of the DVD along with a couple of his greeting cards. When I returned home I watched the DVD partway but I couldn’t seem to get into it. Instead I meditated with the images he gave me and followed up with him only to discover that his website had crashed and he had to build it over again. Time went by and after a while the DVD and cards got put on a shelf somewhere, out of mind.

Until now.

Coming next on Wednesday, November 25th Our Earth Heart, Mother Africa

Blessings,

A Message from Inner Guidance on Why I Am Being Drawn to Help the Women of Africa (Part 5)

2009-11-20T08:00:00.000-05:00

Again, I contemplated in meditation… and then I turned to automatic writing, consulting my guides and spiritual teachers to see what may present itself to answer the question:

Why am I being drawn to help the women of Africa?

There is a force much greater than you can imagine at work here on this planet. The birthing place of the most powerful Divine Feminine forces are waiting to be reawakened in Africa. The women of the Congo are reliving one of the most horrific enslavement and destruction acts committed against the feminine spirit known to man on an archetypal and physical level.

This was foreseen and monuments in sacred sites have been placed in various locations to act as signs to guide the way back to truth and assist in the reawakening of the Divine Feminine.

Every single woman in the Congo carry the seed of powerful divine feminine spirits that were enslaved, tortured and killed because they were a threat to those who wanted control and power. They have sought to keep this planet from ascending into a higher dimension for their own agenda but this can not and will not be allowed to continue.

We have watched horrors on this planet for thousands of years and it has saddened us deeply but we had to let you find your way. Many of you have volunteered to be inspired to take action through various measures, all of which fit as individual pieces of a great puzzle.

~

Some things were beginning to come together and another connection to Africa came to my awareness again.

Why Congo? A Metaphysical Perspective (Part 4)

2009-11-18T08:00:00.002-05:00

After the initial dust had settled and HFCW was launched I began to ask why I was being drawn to this cause, aside from its obvious reasons.

This is how my mind works, I like to explore. This is what spirituality has taught me, to look for the deeper meaning in everything.

What I didn’t realize when all this came up was that Africa had actually begun speaking to me in 2008.

It started when a friend gave me an Ajoite crystal. Ajoite is highly prized by mineral collectors for its intense blue/green coloring and also for its metaphysical properties. This is a stone that produces a sense of peace which harmonizes the emotional body. It assists in release of sorrow, anger and fear, and it assists in connection to Inner self, Higher Self and All That Is.

This particular Ajoite crystal was part of a large piece that had broken off and my friend said she had been wondering why it broke apart and if she was meant to give it to someone else. But because of the magnificence and special meaning the Ajoite held for her, she was reluctant to give it to just anyone. However, when she saw how magnetized I was by it and all that I saw in it she knew I was meant to become its guardian.

I could not put the crystal down and I saw the continent of Africa and what looked like a great white light or spirit entering into it. I also kept being reminded of Atlantis and felt that they were connected. At the same time, I could not also help but wonder if it was perhaps the reversed, was Africa birthing the light?

I wasn’t sure how that was possible but the unanswered question remained hidden in the deep recesses of my mind, only now coming up again as I write this.

Then a few months later I came into possession of another stone, an Ocean Jasper that had a very similar affect on me. Again, I saw Africa and Atlantis in the designs filled with white light and crystalline windows and doors.

Ocean Jasper is rare and comes from the ocean off the remote coast of the island of Madagascar (I didn’t realize at the time it is actually off the coast of Africa). It is said to help us connect with the Ocean of Wisdom that resides in the collective unconscious of humanity. Ocean Jasper is related to the heart chakra and is quite wonderful in opening and clearing this chakra. It is very soothing and helps you love yourself as well as others. It works to heal the emotions and bring peace of mind.

I keep this stone on my desk and often meditate with it―it is one of my favourites. I just came across a reference to the Ocean Jasper as also being known as the ‘Atlantis Stone’.

My Life Purpose Redefined into a Mission (Part 3)

2009-11-16T08:00:00.005-05:00

Never before have I been so affected and moved to want to do something.

Lisa Shannon’s story inspired me. She showed us how one person can make a difference and how when we band together we can change the world.

I began searching my mind for ideas. My life partner Paul is a Master’s track and field athlete, having competed in the 1998 Seoul Olympics his love of the sport is a major focus in his life. In fact, he is Vice President of Ontario Masters Association (OMA) and I help out with registrations and race results at their events.

My first thought was that maybe I could convince OMA to host a Run for Congo Women event. I sat with this idea for a couple of days but given that running is really not my thing it didn’t have me totally jazzed.

So I wondered what I could do that makes use of my gifts and passions.

That’s how Healing for Congo Women (HFCW) was born. An idea for one event quickly became the concept for a global grassroots movement as I shared the idea with others.

Let me point out, I am an idea person, a visionary. Too many ideas, actually, to implement.

I have to believe in something, deep in my heart, to take an idea and turn it into reality.

I shared my idea with Paul after watching the Oprah show again with him. I don’t know why, but I was surprised when he said, “That’s a great idea!” His comment seemed to give me the confidence I needed.

Making a commitment to myself and the idea I stood up from the sofa, went to my computer, and wrote an email to Women for Women International outlining my idea and asking for their support. I then sent out a request in my social media world asking for someone to volunteer to create a logo.

When I contemplated this idea during meditation I felt the Light within growing brighter and stronger and the sun broke free from the clouds gracing me with its rays. Immediately following my meditation I received a further message―a quote sent to me:

“May the long time sun shine upon you, all love surround you, And the pure light within you, guide your way home.” – Traditional Sufi Blessing

In less than a week and 40+ variations later our beautiful logo was chosen, I had the support of Women for Women International, and I had volunteers on board.

It appears that the universe is supporting me whole-heartedly!

Why Should We Care About the Congo Women? (Part 2)

2009-11-13T09:00:00.000-05:00

There are so many reasons why we should care about what’s happening to the women of the Congo.

SLAVERY
HITLER
RWANDA

And now...

CONGO

These mass attempts to control, abuse, and exterminate people call for worldwide action.

Humanity has come together before to change the course of history; it’s time to rally again and come to the aid of the Congo women and children.

These women are our sisters. They need our help.

When you believe and help in a cause your life becomes so much more valuable and meaningful.

We all have the power to change the world by standing up for women and girls and by educating and empowering them.

It is proven that when a woman of a third world country gets assistance she spends the money more wisely than a man, she cares for family, ensuring her children are educated. She invests in her skills and her community.

Still, as I learned this that part of me that was aching inside for these women wondered, “What could I do?”

It was when I learned of Lisa Shannon and her efforts that I began to feel a sacred flame within sparking and sending signals.

Lisa Shannon of Portland, Oregon watched Lisa Ling’s report on the Congo on an Oprah show in January 2005. She was inspired by Zaineb Salbi of Women for Women International. She began by sponsoring two women but felt it wasn’t enough so she created her own organization called Run for Congo Women. It began as one 30-mile lone trek, raising enough money to sponsor 80 Congo women and has now grown to events all around the United States, sponsoring over 1,000 women.

In 2007, Lisa flew to Congo to meet her sisters and as these sisters gathered together in a circle around her, Lisa said, “Every woman here is strong and courageous and we know that all of you are the future of Congo.”

I cried. This woman who felt the same urge to do something to help that I was now feeling has made a difference in the lives of over 1,000 women and their communities.

Lisa discovered that the money these women receive was only one part of the experience―more importantly was the emotional connection that resulted. These women carry letters from their sponsors in pouches around their necks because they feel recognized and validated.

Lisa says, “Congo is hell―the most dangerous place on earth but the women still have joy despite what they’ve lived through.”

These women show incredible resilience, strength, and hope for a better life. Hundreds of them line-up everyday waiting and hoping for sponsorship.

Nicholas Kristof, author of Half the Sky and Pulitzer Prize winner said, “This is the cause of our time. This isn’t just a do gooder issue. It’s an issue of national security.”

Lyrics from John Lennon’s song Imagine:

Imagine there’s no countries, it isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace
I hope someday you’ll join us and the world will be as one

I am reminded of Jo Luck’s advice to Tererai;

BELIEVE. IT IS ACHIEVABLE

This is a moment when we can stand up and make a contribution to world peace.

Come back on Monday, November 16th for the next segment titled My Life Purpose Redefined into a Mission.

Love and blessings,

Kiernan

A Message from Kiernan About Healing for Congo Women (Part 1)

2009-11-11T11:07:00.006-05:00

I felt it was important to explain why I have created Healing for Congo Women and made it an important part of my mission to help transform the heart of Africa.

Maybe it will touch your heart as it has touched mine. Maybe you will decide to stand up and raise your voice with me and others who are saying what’s happening in the Congo is not okay.

One day at the end of September 2009 I absently heard a commercial for an Oprah show being aired on October 1st. The only words I remember hearing were something to the effect of “the most incredible story of someone making their dreams come true, you won’t want to miss this show.”

That’s it. That’s all I remember hearing but something inside me ‘clicked’ on and I made the decision to record the show knowing I wouldn’t be home to watch it when it aired.

I didn’t know then that the show would change my life and redefine my life’s mission. Nor did I know that I would be so grateful I had the most important show I’ve ever seen on tape so I could show it with others.

The show began about a woman named Tererai from Zvipani, Zimbabwe who overcame all obstacles to achieve her dreams.

Tererai was raised in a hut with no running water and girls were discouraged from having any hopes; in fact, they were not even allowed to go to school. Only boys can go to school. Most girls are married off by the time they are twelve years old.

Tererai had a passion, a yearning to learn, she constantly begged her father to let her go to school and when this didn’t work, she secretly did her brother’s homework. Eventually the teacher found out and was so impressed that she convinced Tererai’s father to let her go to school. However, this only lasted two months and at eleven years old she was married off and by the time she was eighteen she had three children. Not only that, her husband beat her regularly for her desire to have an education.

One day a woman by the name of Jo Luck, of Heffer International, came to Tererai’s village and gathered the young people together. She asked them about their hopes and dreams. Tererai spoke up and announced she wanted to go to America to get an education. She wanted to get her Bachelor’s degree, her Master’s degree, and the highest PhD available for teaching.

Jo Luck looked at her and said, “If you desire those things it is achievable. Write down those dreams in your heart.”

When Tererai shared this with her mother she was encouraged and told to write down her dreams on a piece of paper and bury it in a tin under a rock. Her mother also said that if this was truly what she wanted she would make it happen and the rock would call her back with every dream she achieved. Tererai did as she was instructed.

In 1998 Tererai moved to Oklahoma with her five children. Dream #1 – check.
In three years Tererai received her Bachelor’s Degree in Education. Dream #2 – check.
Two years later she earned her Master’s Degree. Dream #3 – check.
By end of 2009 Tererai will be awarded her PhD. Dream #4 – soon to be checked.

With each achievement she returned to her rock, dug up her dream list, and checked it off her list.

Seeing Tererai come on the Oprah show made me choke up and weep for this woman’s courage, determination, achievements, and journey.

She now goes to Africa and teaches girls to have dreams, to write them down on paper, and bury them in a tin under a rock.

While Tererai’s story had a profound effect on me and I already wanted to share it with my family I was not yet moved into taking any other action.

Then I began to learn about what’s happening to the women of Congo.

75% of women in several areas of the Congo have been brutally beaten, tortured, gang raped, and killed.

THIS IS HAPPENING EVERY DAY!

Innocent children are being tortured, starved, forced to commit horrific crimes, and left to die.

How can this be happening? Why is this so largely unknown?

45,000 NEW VICTIMS EVERY MONTH!

An estimated 5 million people have been killed since 1998 and most of them are women and children.

I was in shock. I couldn’t breathe.

Yet, what could I do, half way around the world?

The Congo is described as the most dangerous place in the world.

The Democratic Forces for the Liberation of Rwanda (FDLR), who are the army remnants from the Rwanda genocide, are running rampant and responsible for the perpetration of these atrocities. Congo men are learning violence and aggression are the norm and the key to surviving so that Congo women are not even safe from brutality in their own home.

For more in-depth information on the issues involved click here.

I went from being deeply moved and inspired to grief-stricken and outraged.

Check back on Friday, November 13th to learn WHY WE SHOULD CARE about what's happening to the women in Congo.

Blessings,

Kiernan

Flow in the River of Life, 8 Strategies to Increase Your Personal Power and Manage Stress

2009-10-29T14:16:00.011-04:00

This morning in meditation, while breathing deeply, a vision began to appear. I became aware of myself as a drop of water in the river of life. Millions of drops of water around me on all sides, yet there was space to breathe, space to move, space to be. For a while, I floated effortlessly with the currents, and then the currents became rapids. I was swerving around and splashing up against rocks. Thrown in every which direction until I was back in the stillness again, floating along in the calmer waters, feeling peace enriching my very existence.

I see this vision as a metaphor for life. Sometimes, we coast along, going with the flow and allowing life to carry us effortlessly to some magical destination. But, when turbulence appears in our lives, more often than not, most people tend to tense up and try to avoid the rocks (challenges) by clawing and flailing about, desperately trying to swim to the side banks where we think safety awaits us.

Does it work? Perhaps sometimes it does, but not without its share of scrapes, bumps and bruises that tire us out and leaves us feeling drained so that when the next obstacle or challenge appears we have even less reserved energy to make it to the next safe zone.

Going with the flow of life doesn’t guarantee that we won’t crash up against the rocks occasionally, as my vision revealed, but if we can stay with the currents rather than fighting against them we will find ourselves back in the stillness, rewarded with the essence of Spirit in the water around us and within us, nourishing and rejuvenating every cell of our being.

HOW TO FLOW IN THE RIVER OF LIFE

Building our core strength and center of power provides us with the ability to withstand and manage the challenges we face in life with greater ease. It helps us to navigate the stormy waters and be more comfortable in the ebb and flow of the currents in life.

Here are my top eight recommendations to help you increase your personal power:

Spend time in nature; consciously ask for help in grounding your energies and the energies flowing through you into Mother Earth. You are like a lightening rod and unless you are grounded in this world you will be easily thrown off balance. As you walk, breathe deeply and with every step you take send your energies into earth.
Exercising regularly helps to increase your self-confidence and builds strength and stamina. It helps you to feel balanced, healthy, and in the world. Whatever form of exercise you choose make sure it’s something you enjoy! My personal favourite these days is Pilates because it builds strength, increases flexibility, and incorporates use of the breath bringing in the body, mind, and spirit connection.
Proper nutrition is fundamental to giving your body what it needs to carry you through your day. Eat clean, fresh, and local foods whenever you can. Our bodies have enough external stresses to deal with through exposure to pollutants, chemicals etc. that we don’t need to add more by ingesting them too! Adopt the attitude that your body is the temple that houses your soul―nourish it well and it will reward you with great health and vitality!
Healing the wounds from your past will change your life permanently. Take time to explore your inner world and find ways to let go and forgive the people and circumstances in your life that you feel have wronged you. Discover the gifts that every situation brings and see things from the higher perspective that we are here to learn and grow and help others do the same.
Express your creativity in whatever form you enjoy. Everyone is creative in some way; whether artistically through painting, writing, and singing or through other activities like cooking, organizing, listening to music, or even coming up with solutions to problems. Find ways to incorporate your creative gifts into your daily life.
Meditation is a valuable tool to calm the mind, get to know your inner world which includes your body and spirit, and strengthens your ability to connect with your Higher Consciousness.
Adopt an attitude of gratitude. All too often we gripe and complain about our lives which blinds us from seeing the beauty around us. When we make the shift to gratitude our cup begins to overflow with love and abundance and enables us to feel steadfast, safe and secure in the world.
Being of service is the greatest gift you can give yourself and others. You will learn more about who you are and find greater meaning in life by caring and doing for others.

Incorporating these seven activities in your life will help you to get to know yourself on deeper levels and to know yourself is vital to developing your personal power and being able to handle the challenges that come your way.

Revive your Soul and Flow in the River of Life!

The Power of the Divine Feminine and the Great Awakening

2009-10-20T18:43:00.006-04:00

Are you hearing talk of 2012 and wondering what all the hype is about? Are we on the verge of Armageddon as doomsday sayers are spouting? 2012 movies are starting to come out and many of them will support this theory to strike fear in the hearts of many or just for the sensationalism to attract people’s attention and dollars.

When I started to write my book Phoenix Star in 2004, I was struggling to understand what I believed surrounding the prophecies of 2012 and the end of the Mayan calendar. My research had revealed that there is a rare astronomical alignment known as the ‘Dark Rift’ that is predicted to occur on December 21, 2012 but the logical part of my brain couldn’t seem to grasp its meaning. What exactly is going to happen?

Did it mean the planet would implode or explode? Would humans as a race simply disappear as the planet travelled through the Milky Way Galaxy? Or would some, who had attained a certain level of enlightenment, survive and then exist on a higher plane?

Inspiration led me to craft a story weaving in elements of transformation, divine spirit, and magical gifts that culminated in a moment of time that stood still on the planet. When I completed writing the final scene something extraordinary happened to me. Something more mystical and divine than my imagination could conjure up.

I experienced an awakening of light and sound and spirit radiating throughout my entire being. I experienced the power of the Divine Feminine.

The sound of angels singing within, through, and around me was almost deafening.

It left me sobbing, shaking, and vibrating with intense divine love.

There were and are no words to describe this experience that I still remember as vividly as when it happened in 2006.

Since being touched with this power of the Divine Feminine my life has changed irrevocably. The process of transformation has been deep at work, awakening and healing my heart to what feels like back to the source of my creation.

Spirit gifted me with inspiration and a vision for all that could be that is being validated with each passing day, in my life and the world at large.

Getting back to December 21, 2012 for a moment, let’s contemplate what the ‘Dark Rift’ is and what I believe it may mean. The Mayan long calendar ends on this date, marking the end of a period of 5,200 years and it also happens to align with a rare astrological alignment that only occurs once every 26,000 years.

The scientific community has concluded that our planet, sun and our entire solar system originated in the center of the Milky Way Galaxy. They are also now convinced that at the center of the Galaxy is a massive black hole. The ancient Maya believed that this black hole is the ‘birthing place’ for all life and the bulge in the center of the Galaxy was termed the Cosmic Womb. Within the center of this womb there appears to be a dark corridor and it is this place that has been named the ‘Dark Rift’.

The December Solstice Sun of 2012 is expected to align with and arise out of the back side of the ‘Dark Rift’, passing through the Galactic Equator as if it is being birthed anew. This period marks the end of the Fifth Mayan Sun and the dawning of the Sixth; a New Galactic Cycle and the transformation of our world or what I call the Phoenix Star.

What is not widely known, however, is according to recent astrological calculations the Solstice Meridian began aligning with the Galactic Equator between 1998 and 1999. The Sun because of its size moves very slowly and will not fully cross the Equator and emerge onto the other side until 2018―a full 20-year cycle.

Meaning, that we are already smack in the middle of this birthing process and need not wait until 2012 to see that the world is changing and urging us to let the power of the Divine Feminine energies of love transform our lives.

2012―will it be death or the midway moment of our journey through the Center of the Cosmic Womb?

I believe it is the latter and I believe we have the power, strength, and fortitude to ride the waves of labor pains and raise our collective consciousness to witness the birth of a New World, if we embrace the power of the Divine Feminine now and let it reawaken our hearts.

Whether or not you believe this is real, something is going on. Millions of people around the world are meditating, participating in world peace initiatives, turning to healers, coaches, spiritual teachers and holistic or alternative modalities to help them find greater health, more meaning and purpose to their lives―an awakening is occurring on a global scale.

We are living in these times to experience and master what is known as the Hero’s Journey―or rites of passage, something every single one of us must endure, in one form or another.

Some of the elements of the Hero’s Journey include experiencing and transforming:

• Lack of self-worth and self-love
• Lack of courage and focus
• Pain and patterns of illusion and programs from past lives
• Overwhelming guilt and shame that suppresses our gifts
• Taking responsibility for one’s life and actions
• Healing our wounds
• The Dark Night of the Soul
• Finding our ‘voice’ and purpose
• Reclaiming and standing in our power

As we clear the layers of the past we become open and receptive to heart and soul activations which translate into feeling great love for ourselves and humanity. We are able to experience true freedom, become leaders, and step into our divinity that is waiting for us as our birthright.
This may seem overwhelming, but if you have the desire and invite the Divine Feminine into your life miracles can and will happen.

Watch for signs, listen and act on inner guidance and you will be shown the way. Pay attention to what you are resisting because this is often the very thing you need to do to master the next step on your path. Explore new avenues previously feared or ignored.

No one knows for certain what is really going to happen but I’d rather live each day as if it was my last and treasure each moment in the eternal bliss of my heart.

Here's a little love for you - ENJOY!

SAY YES! To life and let the Divine Feminine awaken, bless and activate your heart and soul.

Do You Have Wings?

2009-07-22T16:41:00.003-04:00

I received not one but two delightful surprises today while walking in what I call the valley - a lovely oasis of nature in the midst of the city.

It was a meditative walk lasting almost two hours including a special treat of soaking my feet in a tributary leading into the Don River.

I was contemplating my next project, a third meditation in a set of three that I am in the process of creating and will be available for purchse in the near future. The first one is titled, Wherever You Are... God Is and the second one is titled What You Are Becoming: A Message From The Ancient One.

The third and final in this first trilogy I decided during my walk would be titled Embrace Your Soul Light.

These are truly beautiful meditations that are being filled with magnificent Divine Blessings and I am deeply honoured to be able to share these with you very soon.

The first of my delightful surprises occurred as I was opening myself to receive inspiration for this third meditation. So what happened?

Two glorious hawks were suddenly circling around me overhead. Now this might not seem so special to some people however one of them swooped down so low and spoke to me - I don't know what you'd call the hawks voice - singing? cawing? Whatever the case, there was no way to disregard that spirit was at work.

Hawks are known as powerful birds that can awaken visionary power and assist us in living our life purpose. They are a messenger bird and whenever they show up we are being asked to pay attention because they inform us that a message is on its way.

I stood in awe and was filled with gratitude for this gift.

The second gift came shortly after I had decided upon the title for the third meditation. I was nearing the end of my walk and was passing under a roadway overpass high above. A voice from the bridge caught my attention and I looked up. It seemed to be a male but that was determined more by the depth of the voice than what I was able to see. I have excellent distance vision but this was too far away to see anything other than a shape of a person.

As I walked away from the bridge this voice boomed out from hundreds of feet above "Do you have wings?"

I turned and he waved at me. What more could I do but smile and feel blessed. When I turned back around again he was gone.

I'll pass it forward and ask you, do you have wings, my beloved friends of spirit and light?

I came across this quote recently and I absolutely love it:

"The same stream of life that runs through the world runs through my veins night and day in rhythmic measure. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth into numberless waves of flowers." - Tagore

May you be blessed and rest in the heart of the Divine Mother,

Kiernan

Reclaim Your Heart and Soul

2009-07-10T17:33:00.007-04:00

I love you mum!

I participated in a meditation a few months ago at a seminar where we essentially cleared the karmic fears and programs inherited and passed down through our maternal bloodlines at birth. The moment we completed this exercise I felt my mother (located in another town) take a quick startled breath of fear.

This experience was quite emotional and profound. I wondered if and how it would affect my life. Well, as it turned out it wouldn’t be long before I would find out.

A couple of evenings later I was speaking with my mother and did indeed discover she had been thinking of me at the time we performed the clearing. During our conversation she told me that one of my cousins called to tell her that my uncle had passed over. My cousin also enquired about me and how I was doing.

Before I go any further I’ll give you a brief family history. My mother is the eldest of three sisters and they have been estranged from each other for more than fifteen years. As a result, none of us cousins who grew up together have seen each other during this time either.

Well, my cousin mentioned to my mom that she was on one of the popular networking websites and so the following day I decided to search for my cousin. Sure enough, I found her and sent her a friend request. I also noticed that she had been in touch with a couple of my other cousins and their mother via the internet but for some reason I didn’t contact them at the same time.

The following Saturday morning I was online and delighted to discover my cousin had accepted my request. Rather excited I showed her photos to my partner in life, Paul. He wondered why I hadn’t contacted my other cousins and I shrugged my shoulders in response. He urged me to send them a friend request also and so I did.

Moments later my computer beeped at me and low and behold, there was my eldest cousin sending me a note via the chat screen. I couldn’t believe it! What timing!

We engaged in a very excited online exchange―I was squealing with delight for about two hours while we got updated on our lives and reminisced. I couldn’t sit still; I kept jumping up and down telling Paul everything that was going on―he had never seen me like this before.

I told her I still had the beautiful Christmas tree ornaments she made for me more than twenty years ago and put them on my tree lovingly every year thinking of her. Actually, I think every year I show them to Paul and tell him my cousin made them. He smiles sweetly and never lets on that I’ve told him before―maybe he doesn’t remember but either way it warms my heart.

She told me she still has the hat, booties, and sweaters my mom knitted for her children when they were born―the very same ones she took them home from the hospital in more than twenty years ago. She also remembered my mom sewing clothes for her Barbie dolls when she was a little girl.

Yes, it was a very emotional and soul lifting chat.

My cousin and I discovered so many misunderstandings between our mothers and we committed to organizing a family reunion.

She was absolutely positive that her mother would be thrilled. I, on the other hand, wasn’t quite so sure. I really didn’t know how far or deep the misunderstandings went but I agreed anyway.

I was deliriously happy. I couldn’t explain it – just happy deep within.

Immediately afterward I called my mother and told her what had happened. Mom cried. She suggested us cousins get together for lunch or something. I saw my opening and tentatively told her of the idea for a family reunion.

She held her breath. She cried some more. You see, my mom is going to be eighty this year and she told me she never thought she’d live this long and she never thought she’d see her sisters again.

Well, we both cried and I told her I would make sure it was going to happen. She would see her sisters’ again―this would be my gift to her to show her my deep love―not just on the physical level but on the soul as well. Through her tears she said, “At the end of the day, we all have the same blood running through our veins and we’re family.”

Until that day I wasn't aware that this part of me was missing from my life and neither did my cousins.

Since those initial conversations I have gone for lunch with two of my cousins and one aunt to catch up and plan our reunion. We’ve decided that we’re going to add a surprise element to celebrate my mom’s 80th birthday―this was my aunt’s idea and she asked me to help her get something really special for mom, something that says “sisters”. (Don’t worry my mom doesn’t have a computer so she won’t be reading this.)

Beautiful doesn’t describe the healing that is taking place on my mother’s side of the family and all since the day of the maternal fear bloodline clearing.

You see, when we take steps to heal ourselves we create the space for healing in others. This couldn’t be a better example.

We have all shed tears of joy while releasing sadness for the lost years and misunderstandings and I wouldn’t change a moment of it.

Why? Because now I can see my newly reunited family through wiser and more loving eyes. Our hearts have been wounded in similar ways and I can see myself through them. I am letting my heart reach out to them to show them that I love them as they are, and in so doing, we are each reclaiming pieces of our hearts and souls that were lost.

These are of the happiest days of my life, for many reasons I think. In a large part because now there is more room for love to flow in my life and my family. Conversations are taking place that are needed. We are reminiscing and laughing―about the old and the new.

This experience is expanding my heart, adding depth to my love for all of humanity and encouraging me to savor each moment.

I am more complete as a person in this world. It gives me added strength to know and feel the love of not only my living family but also that of my blood ancestors. They stand behind and beside me, as I do them.

Add in our angels, guides and God’s love and anything is possible.

May you heal your wounded heart and reclaim the lost parts of your soul and together may we awaken the heart of humanity, replacing fear and anger with love, joy and peace.
