Creative Goddess

This is a piece, done in soft pastels that is very dear to me.  She is the creative goddess and she will help you to connect to your innate creative abilities.


The goddess of creativity peers out at you from this piece through rose colored glasses.  Her tiny smile encouraging you to let go and unleash the creative forces you hold within yourself.  Her rose colored glasses encourage you to see life in the most positive of aspects and to learn that there is always a silver lining in every situation. 

The energy this piece resonates with is one of complete creative surrender and allowing yourself to embrace your heart fully by opening yourself to the creative possibilities surrounding you.  As you work with your creative mind you will more fully step into your personal power and your personal perception, which is always changing.  Having this piece in your space will further open you to creative energies and allow you to find interesting and different solutions to the challenges you may be facing in your life and work.  Use this  piece to engage in your own creative heart and to motivate yourself forward on your own personal path.

Grief: Anger

Do you sometimes have a day where you wake up cranky and things keep happening that make you feel angrier throughout the day.  Do you wonder if it is the events that are causing your emotional response or if your feelings are actually creating the events...

This is very much what the “second” stage of grief feels like.  Your angry but not sure why exactly, you just feel angry.  So you try to pin it on something, you look for a source to blame the anger on, to give it a name or target.

Often when the grief is due to an event that involves another person, like a loved one who has passed on or a lover or spouse at the end of the relationship, we feel angry at that person.  They are the easiest target to be angry at so that is where it tends to go.  We may feel angry at our loved one for leaving us, or angry at ourselves for something we did or said that to that person that we perceive as bad or wrong. 

These feelings are normal, or at least they have been in my experience.  When my mom passed away in 2011 from cancer, I was so angry at her for leaving us and for giving up the fight to stay.  Now, at the same time I was also feeling relief, sadness, gratitude and a myriad of other emotions.  It was anything but straight forward, but there was anger in a very real sense and not just at my mom but at myself as well.  I was angry at myself for not being more, or better for my mom, even though I know in my heart she always saw me as perfect and she always will. 

In times of intense change, like losing a loved one, it is important to reach out to your support group, whether it is friends and family, or a professional that you trust.  I was very lucky in that area as many of my friends practice reiki and do intuitive counselling.  I reached out, had some reiki sessions done and was able to get clear on my emotions and why exactly I was feeling the way I was.

Giving yourself time to honor your feelings is a definite must as well.  Everyone processes and grieves differently and there is no “wrong” way to feel.  It is important to accept what you are feeling as you look to understand the underlying reasons for those feelings.

 Honor yourself, be gentle with yourself and accept yourself with love.  Reach out, talk with friends and family or come into Lasya  Healing Center and see me for a reiki session.  Clarity on your feelings can help you move through those emotions with a perspective that draws positivity to you and your growth.

Follow your heart - Angel Card for March




Follow Your Heart

The answer to your question is in your heart.  This card signifies that you can trust your hearts true desires, even if you can’t clearly see how the outcome will appear or manifest.  This is a situation where you are called upon to walk in faith and be true to yourself.  The universe will ensure that your needs are met and will help with your relationships as you make life changes. 

 
Change, one of the most challenging things we face in our lives and we face it on a daily basis.  For the month of March trust your heart, your instinct and your intuition.  Let go of the logical and allow your heart to guide you.  You will be amazed at the results and the doors that open as you listen to how you feel rather than what logic is screaming at you to do.  If you are having trouble discerning what you feel from what your mind thinks you should be doing, take some time to be still.  Focus on the heart space within you and allow yourself to relax and let go of all the logical thoughts that are rushing around in your brain.  Then just listen, feel where you are being drawn and what decision will fill you with a feeling of joy and maybe which decision is a little scary for you.  This is the best direction to head.

I know it can be scary, but what is life without a little bit of risk and learning.  The key is to be gentle with yourself and to work at dropping your expectations of how you are going to get where you would most love to be.  With letting go of the expectations you will open the door for miracles to happen and for opportunities to flow to you from the most unexpected places.
