2015.

Welcome to 2015! This year is full of new possibilities and opportunities and it’s our job to seize these with everything we have! Last year seemed to be a tough year for a lot of people. We’ve all had to go through some bullshit this year – but for the most part it seems we are all trying to head on the right course.

I have blogged before about the DIVINE FEMININE, so I want to take this chance to mention masculine energy. It’s been a wonderful year of progress. All around me I see my friends and family progressing. Some of the most REAL growth I have seen this year comes from the men of my generation. It has been a seriously beautiful process watching my male friends, whom I have either known for ever or are very close to now, transform into these gentleMEN. So much respect exudes from the males of this community. I commend you. This shift from a dominant masculine energy to a balance of feminine and masculine is among us. We are able to recognize the importance of our equality in the world.

This being said, I want to get to the actual point of this entry. This dominant masculine energy is still running rampant around the world. We are still fighting wars and innocent people are being lost due to the greed of those in power. This grey energy is doing it’s best to take over. I came to this sad realization tonight as I sat in my car and listened to this song:

As I pulled into my driveway I sat there and listened to the song in it’s entirety, and it brought tears to my eyes. This is the reality of so many families and men and women of this country. Not just our country, but the world. There are people that wake up everyday and go fight for the country they live in. And a lot of them die. And a lot of them don’t exactly know what they are fighting for.

I give so much love to the men and women whom serve our country to ensure our freedom and rights that we have in the United States. And my heart is in tatters to think of how many innocent lives are lost in these wars; wars we DON’T REALLY KNOW the cause of. It’s a very sad reality to me to think that greed can overpower the lives of so many.

Greed literally murders millions each year.

I may not agree with my government at all, but to begin this new year I want to give gratitude to all those that serve our country, REGARDLESS of some of the shitty decisions that are made. My head hangs low for loss, but HIGH for those that have given it all to help keep us safe.

THANK YOU.

DIVINE FEMININE.

Last night, I had the honor of partaking in a women’s circle during the rise of the full moon. This group was created with the intention of reconnecting to our divine feminine. A sacred space, we intertwined hands and gave thanks to Mother Earth and Father Sky. This sparked within me a real connection to these women, most of which I had just met for the first time. I could feel the energy between us as we breathed in and out slowly, our hearts beating to the same rythym.
No matter if you are female or male, the connection to the divine feminine is very important. Balance must be made between the dominant male and the often pushed-aside female. It’s crucial to stimulate that right brain, allow the creative enery to flow freely, and most of all, BE SENSITIVE. Open your heart to the emotions that are making themselves known. The beauty of being human is our ability to take perceptions and turn them into feelings. We are all submersed in a society that tells us being tough and strong is the only way to be. But actually allowing yourself to FEEL (they must be called feelings for a reason, huh?) is the greatest healing property of all.
Woman are blessed with being “extra-sensitive.” Some men may laugh at this and shake their head, but deep down they are completely capable, if not already, of feeling the EXACT emotions women share. The only difference being that men would be considered “weak” if they shed light on anything other than being masculine. This is where we must make a change. Being sensitive is a GIFT. Having the ability to recognize what makes us sad, happy, angry – these are all things that CONNECT us. Sharing feelings and emotions can only make our connnections grow stronger. The more we feel human, the more we will feel whole.
Allow yourself to be free of the constraints society has put on you regarding how we must act and feel. Break free of the chain of bullshit thats been wrapped around you too tightly, for too long. One of the most amazing gifts we can share with someone is telling them EXACTLY how we feel. Don’t be afraid to put yourself out there. Don’t wait until it’s too late.
Use your feminine power of thought and feeling to dictate your emotional life. Tears shed out of happiness, or sadness, are still a weight being lifted. Give yourself permission to feel vulnerable.
