Happy Heart-Space ~ One and All!

Happy Heart-Space ~ One and All! ~ from Mary @ DelphicWave


Dear Friends,

May the 13th 'Freya Day' bring you Blessings of the Heart!
Friday is named for the Norse Goddess Freya, another name for Venus, the Divine Feminine. Traditionally, this day was for 'staying home' and celebrating the Goddess through acts of love. Tomorrow, the 14th of February is celebrated at Valentine's Day, another celebration of connecting through the heart.

As a young girl, one of my favorite songs was "Aquarius" by The Fifth Dimension.
"When the moon is in the Seventh House
And Jupiter aligns with Mars
Then peace will guide the planets
And love will steer the stars
This is the dawning of the Age of Aquarius..."
Tomorrow, February 14th 2009, at 7:25 AM GMT, this alignment will occur.

The alignment of Mars and Jupiter, with the Moon in the 7th house occurs as Jupiter, Mars, Neptune, and Chiron the Wounded Healer, the Sun and the North Node all align in Aquarius. To make this even more significant it occurs on February 14, 2009, Valentines Day, at 7:25am (GMT). For those of us on the Pacific Coast, that is 11:20pm the night before (February 13th) TONIGHT. On the East Coast 2:20am on the 14th, and those in Europe, 8:20am on the 14th.

We are on the cusp, leaving the Age of Pisces and moving forward into the Age of Aquarius fully. The alignment of Jupiter with Mars has occurred twice already once in 1973 and again in 1998. Reflect on what was occurring in your life at this time as it has a significant message for your journey forward.

The Age of Aquarius is symbolic of a great spiritual transformation, a new sense of democracy, freedom and humanitarianism. The end of religious separation and the return of a deep spiritual connection to one another. This transitional period between two ages is considered to be a process that occurs over many years, not on an exact day or year.

The alignment will last for approximately 18 minutes so make a commitment to join with people from all over the world at this time and pray that our leaders of all nations are guided by love and peace and we as citizens of the world come together to support the changes of this new era. Be the change you dream about.

The most profound spiritual traditions of ancient times perceived the manifest world, at all scales of existence as being generated and pervaded by a cosmic trinity of active, passive and neutral principles - the divine essence of the masculine, feminine and child. The Vedic sages of ancient India saw the male/active life-force energy they called the pingala and the female/passive energy they called the ida weaving around and through our chakras and the child/neutral energy they called the shushumna as channeling up through them.

When these divine masculine and feminine energies are balanced and so able to fully `birth' the divine child energies within us, the ancient sages saw the so-called kundalini energy that otherwise lies dormant at the base of the spine, surge through us enabling us to fully embody our divine nature.

When this cosmic trinity of consciousness is harmonized and fully expressed within us, we are truly `healed' and `whole' as embodied by the universal symbol of the caduceus as a representation of healing from earliest times.

For millennia, only the highest adepts understood and have attained such wholeness. But elders and mystics around the world are saying that now is the time, when we have evolved to a point where we are all able to awaken our inner divinity. This is our spiritual destiny at the dawning of the Age of Aquarius.

In mid February, we are offered cosmic support to this re-membering of who we really are, by a rare astrological concentration that brings together a number of planets together with the North Node - denoting higher purpose - in Aquarius. And which energizes and inspires the possibility for transcendental breakthrough and healing.

We measure our global sense of both space (longitude) and time (universal time - UT or GMT) from the prime meridian located at Greenwich, England. We can perceive the collective influence of this momentous astrological event by looking at the alignment from this globally `centered' perspective. When we do, something extraordinary and exquisite emerges.

At dawn on 14th February the day dedicated to St Valentine, the patron saint of Love, the Moon in Libra enters the seventh house of relationships. And Jupiter and Mars are aligned in Aquarius in the twelfth house of spiritual transformation.

The Aquarian chart of 14th February reveals an incredible concentration of cosmic influences blending with the energies of Aquarius in the twelfth house. Expansive Jupiter and energetic Mars are aligned with the higher purpose of the North Node. The presence of Chiron the wounded healer offers us the opportunity to heal the schisms that have separated us for so long. Neptune emphasizes collective humanitarian movements and the co-creation of social justice. And the presence of the radiant Sun enlightens the entire alignment.

Mercury also in the twelfth house but just beyond the cusp in Capricorn, allies with transformational Pluto to communicate and anchor the Shift throughout our global structures and institutions.

The Moon in Libra in the seventh house emphasizes harmonious real-ationships.
Venus in Aries in the first house energizes and empowers dynamic co-creativity.

And whilst Saturn the great task master in opposition to Uranus the unexpected awakener is suggesting an ongoing confrontation as the dregs of the unsustainable old paradigm reluctantly give way to the untested hope of the new, their placements in Virgo and Pisces brings practical altruism and visionary inspiration to the transition.

At this auspicious time, I invite you, in the universal heart, to add your own intention for love and peace and to co-create the dawning of the Age of Aquarius to that of the Cosmos.

Gratitude in this Moment!

(Please enjoy this excerpt from Mary's upcoming book "Ride the Moon".)




For what can I express Gratitude in this moment, as I begin (or end) this day?

For what may I express my complete and total gratitude on this magnificent day?

The full moon energy is that of fullness of expression. She inspires us to shine our light even in the darkest, most turbulent skies.

On this auspicious full moon I am grateful. My gratitude goes to all of those ‘external’ guides who have shown me pieces of ‘my’ way. My gratitude sings the song of mySelf to Source whose fullness of Self I am one small extension. My gratitude I give with open arms to the Great Mother for yet another lesson in finding Her blessings.

This eclipse-to-eclipse, new moon to full moon window we have just traversed has been a deep weeding and re-seeding of our individual and collective intent. I was lying outside, observing the energies transforming within (a little dizzy, I admit) and asking to be shown what was changing. What was shifting inside me that would help me to more perfectly mirror the particle of divinity that I AM in the wave?

I was swept into an internal whirlpool of images, sights and sounds. I felt the saviors, the martyrs, the prophets, the icons.... what did it mean? Why this? Why now? What was it that I needed to internally release? What presented itself was surprising to say the least.

The image that presented itself was a middle-eastern male. This man was turbaned, and completely 100% self-identified as the 'chosen one' or ‘messenger of God’. “”What?” I inquired.

I was taken into remembering, a few days ago in a soul alignment session, when what I saw, first, was this archetype, the chosen one, as a young man of high caste, a 'ruling family' who grew up in a society where he was identified by his birth into a family of entitlement. There was no other 'way' but for him to receive prosperity and privilege, as that was simply his 'due' and his literal birthright. His heart was telling him there was another way but he struggled with this inner question: the question his soul was pressing to find: What is another way? How is it that, by an 'accident of birth', I am so privileged, so entitled, and others are not? How is it that there are those born into disenfranchisement? Who would choose this? Why is life orchestrated in this way?

I remembered the story of Siddhartha, and wondered if this was his archetype. The Divine Mother laughed as she continued her inner lesson.

I was shown that I had drawn this karmic 'card' to bring in with me into this lifetime, as a way of resolving difficulties within. It provided a strong influence for choosing the 'middle way' in processing shadow and releasing identities that no longer fit. It provided an impetus to change, an inner drive to look beneath the workings of the status quo and to seek the truth within. Within the confines of this persona's caste system, he had no such opportunity. In this scenario it is I, in this life, who have been blessed with the 'advantages' of the opportunity to evolve my awareness as I choose. So have we all. So have you.

I remembered again that, just the other evening, I was made aware of this archetype in the impulse to turn on the cable. I was pulled into the film Khartoum... not something I would normally be interested in re-viewing. Khartoum was the first film I remember seeing in a theatre, when I was old enough to 'go with the grownups'. My one memory of that film, from childhood, is the son of my parents' friends sitting next to me stuffing milk duds into his mouth as the carnage escalated. Me, with my mother's hand over my eyes as Gordon's head was piked at the film's end.

For those unfamiliar, Khartoum is an epic film, recounting the story of the city of Khartoum, under siege by one that saw himself as a true messenger of God and a servant of the Prophet Mohammad. Gordon, a British officer and zealot himself, is influenced by his own savior archetype and his ego, to go to Khartoum to try to focus world opinion (and its armies) on the situation. Not a film I would ordinarily be drawn to in my current soul alignment, so being pulled into it was definitely ‘guided’.

What I saw this time, was two 'messengers of God' who were both so dogmatically positioned they could not change course. One, dedicated to sacrificing himself for others, one dedicated to sacrificing others for the 'message' he believed was truth. Each acting out the archetype of the messenger, in dualistically dogmatically held positions.

I found the vibrations of 'sacrificing self' and 'sacrificing others' for a defended position of truth in the depths of myself and asked what was wanting to transform here.
The whole archetype of the messenger was up for transformation. The whole reality of intermediary, of messenger, of any defended position in interpretation of divine reality.

I felt how there has been fear of being a 'messenger' because of these old cycle patterns. I felt the Prophet, the Pope, the Christ archetype, Joan of Arc and many others, ripple through my body and my awareness. I asked Spirit what these images were about... having not yet connected the dots mentally.

I was lying outside at the time, having these energies convulse through me without a clear understanding of what they contained. The Divine Mother said 'it is the archetypical messenger ',’ it is the old forms of that iconic presence within yourself, your bloodlines and your unconscious beliefs’. I still struggled to comprehend her message.

"Open your eyes" she said within me. I opened my eyes, into the deep blue of the late morning sun as a huge hawk streaked low overhead screeing loudly as it went sailing off into the west. I laughed out loud. Ok, got it. This is the Messenger archetype, in all its’ 'his'torical forms. Hawk medicine. My totem. My guide. My energetic signature...no more. Or, perhaps in a newer and more complete form. I was shown how the archetypal messenger has taken on a male form and a male dogmatic position over the centuries, and, in my deepest patterning, that was stuck. It was limiting the archetypal powers of the divine feminine as She was asking to express through me.

I offered this up from the depths of my spirit. I asked to be shown, saying 'goodbye' sadly to the hawk - my medicine and my friend. I offered my gratitude and my love for these archetypal intermediaries and the gifts they have brought to the world. I offered my love to hawk medicine for all of its many blessings. I asked to be shown the energies of the transformation. I was instantly gifted with the new ‘winged one’ that would be my touchstone in my transforming vibratory field. Not a guide, but an example; a new way of vibrating change. I was told 'The Messenger is an intermediary archetype. You are both transcending that and becoming its essence. By opening your awareness as the conduit, you become the grace. Full embodiment is what is asked of you, should you choose this ‘. What does one do, when offered such a choice? Overwhelmed and in tears, I answered in the only way I know how. I said ‘yes. I do not know what I am saying yes to, only that I will not say no’.

I do not know how to embody this. That is a given. I do know that I am humbled and honored and am waiting to be shown. I surrender the 'Messenger' in all 'his' and 'her' forms. I surrender into the 'message'. I keep hearing 'Be the message. Be the ‘ONE'; not a ‘chosen one’... but an actual embodiment of ONEness’.

I know how to be willing. I have learned how to Trust. What I know for sure is that these two qualities are all we ever need to change.

I’ll keep you posted. ;)

"Living your Soul Alignment"

A Year of Choice Points ~ Choosing to Create

A Year of Choice Points ~ Choosing to Create

~ 2009 is an '11' year; a Portal Year, a year of Choices ~

What will you call forth from the ocean of infinite resources?

I Choose to Create

As the new year's energies unfold, I choose to Create. I choose to align with Source, as my authentic Self, in co-creation with All That Is. I choose to be an embodiment of the Divine, of Her beneficent grace and abundance, unfolding without and within. I choose Peace. I choose Resonance. I choose Harmony. I choose Creation. I choose Love.

This 'calendar year' (and is it not amazing and more than a little amusing that we still partition our lives in this arbitrary way?) is going to be, as they say, a 'bumpy ride'. The old cycle has ended and the new has yet to manifest. Will it be the kind of 'bumpy' that leaves us 'tumbled and smashed across the rocks' or will it be Space Mountain, a roller-coaster light show, in the inner worlds of our own consciousness? The choice is ours to make. What will we choose to make real?

This is a year of choice points, a time when instant manifestation has begun in earnest, and not necessarily in the way we had assumed it would be. Think of an 'outcome' and it will manifest! What are you thinking right now? Visioning, keeping your thoughts in alignment with your dreams, hearts' desires and especially your love, has become all important. Remember that every thought is a prayer that the Universe moves to manifest. Remember that this is a new beginning for us all. Remember that every thought you think about anyone or anything reverberates and resonates within you.

A beginning is a delicate time. It is formative. It is causal. It is precious and precarious and promises to be amazingly exciting and awe-inspiringly FUN, if we choose to let it BE. What are your current choices? No, really. Get out your vision boards, your journals, your put-away-lists, and SEE. What have you forgotten that you meant to be?

In each moment of this 'year' exists a choice point. Some will be more impactful than others. Each is an opportunity for exponential growth and change. In the old cycle, the decision not to choose was an invitation for default programs to take over. The old cycle is falling away. Who or what will now choose if you do not? Will the defaults of an old reality become stronger? Will indecision indicate that things should stay the same? Nothing will be as it was. Nothing will work as it has before.

It is time to align with the vibration of miracles. It is time to invoke your alignment with Truth. It is time to remember your reason for being here. It is time to stop pretending to be less than you are.

The time for carrying light for others and the world has reached its completion. It is time to create. What world do you envision? What vibration are you holding to make it real? It is time to live our love, as we create together the world of our dreams.

The Shift has been talked about in many ways and by all traditions.
Wherever you find yourself within it, know that you are loved,
and the time is not only 'right' it is definitely 'NOW'.

~ With all my Love, May Every Blessing Find you!

Greetings Friends,

I would like to invite you to listen in on an upcoming talk show on blogtalkradio,Wednesday, January 28, 2009 at 7pm PST. This transmission from the Divine Feminine is on Soul Alignment. Living our soul alignments is what we are here to do. We know that, no matter how we have been trained or conditioned or manipulated into believing otherwise. We are each a unique vibrational pattern of Source energy. It is that simple, and that amazing. What does it mean to surrender into who we truly are and be fully present in and as our authentic selves? How can we live that on a daily basis? How does She recommend navigating from the Soul?

Equality in Divinity

Happy 2009, to those who use the western calendar! This is going to be quite the year!

As many of us begin to truly embody the reality of unity in diversity, another reality is emerging as critical in the energies of 2009. This energy is the reality of Equality in Divinity.

We say we believe in equality, that all faiths, all religions, all beings are divine sparks. All souls are evolving souls. We are each on our own path and all paths are equal. But how do we practice this? How do we celebrate together, our reverence for life in all its forms? In the old cycle, the world that is now coming to a close, the underlying architecture was hierarchy. Implicit in this old model is 'power over'. That will we now hold 'power for'? What will we do with this new level playing field the Divine is offering to us? How will we handle the formless flow? As I ponder this new cycle we are all birthing, Source whispers "Equality in Divinity" in my innermost ear.

It is time to remember. It is time to remember that we are all ONE. It is time to self-realize as we look into the eyes and hearts and dreams of another ~ even though we may not agree. It is time to appreciate and to live with our hearts open, as we navigate into a new reality. It is time to be who we came here to be.

What does Equality in Divinity mean? You know. You have always known. Can you look into the eyes of a child/puppy/infant of any species and not know? Can you feel the wind on your face, the water of Gaia's rivers and oceans lapping at your feet and not know? It is time to stop pretending. It is time to let go. Time to know.

I commit, in this time that is NOW, to BE the being I came here to be, to remember, to know, to allow all else to fall away. I choose this. I honor the Universal energies now supporting this process. Will you join me?

(The stakes are higher and It is time to play)

New Moon ~ new cycle ~ new life

Today is the new moon, at 4:22AM PST. A new moon window lasts approximately 24 hours, and is the perfect time, in each moon cycle, to set new intentions, to re-format what is forming in our lives.

This new moon is the 'last' in the calendar year 2008 in the West, and has some auspicious aspects worth contemplating. A new moon is the end of a cycle and the beginning of a new one. This moon, in Capricorn has to do with how we manage our physical resources / our bodies and our physical lives. It is aspected by a conjunction of Venus and Neptune. Venus is the planet of the 'personal' divine feminine energies of love, or living from the heart. Neptune is the higher octave of the divine feminine, the connection with our Universal Feminine, or unconditional LOVE. Loosely translated, and apologies to my friends who are astrology professionals, this new moon is a seeding time for how to 'marry' our personal soul alignments with divine alignment in and from the heart, and how to "play that forward" in new archetypal alignments and structures in our physical bodies and lives.

A new moon intention practice is helpful in manifesting from the feminine principle. This is one of my favorites.

Sit for however long suits you (or lie down, if that is more comfortable - this is a YIN practice!) and contemplate the energies of the new moon. This is best done after the exact alignment of the new moon and before is moves into the next sign.
Ask yourself what speaks to you in this alignment.
Set intentions for what you are choosing (yes, choosing) to manifest, be it energetically, or materially, in the coming two weeks, and fully rejoice in the expectation of receiving that choice in miraculous abundance directly from Source, at the time of the Full Moon.
Avow your trust in the Divine Feminine magnetic principle, drawing this to you.
Now, put it away. Mark your calendar for the full moon, to joyfully receive whatever aspect of your miracle awaits you!
I have practiced this for years, and am continually amazed and in gratitude for what Source provides!

This new moon is an initiation into the heart. May yours bloom in abundant peace and joy and may its fragrance delight those you encounter.
