Withdraw

I have withdrawn for a while to turn inward. It was scary at first as I knew there was some house cleaning to attend to. But it has been the most loving and freeing thing I have done for myself in a long time. Insecurity, not enoughness and who would want my help, has come to the surface and poured from me - the tears have washed away the old and I now feel a sense of love and acceptance that has not been there before.

As a therapist and mentor, I know I am no good to my clients if I am not centred and clear in the healing energy of love. So this time out was the next logical step in me becoming a more aligned and inspiring person and mentor. At nearly fifty I think I am finally starting to grow up and realise I don’t need anything, however I have learned I can create whatever I want. There is nothing to fix, just more to love.

As the Winter/Summer solstice arrives use this as an opportunity to turn inward and find your buried treasure and set yourself free. In love and illumination, Denise♥

Full Moon in Libra - Total Lunar Eclipse

Full Moon in Libra, April 4th AUST EDT 11.05pm, GMT 12.05pm, PDT 5.05am. - Total Lunar Eclipse in Sydney AEDT begins about 9pm with totality being at around 11pm.

Can you feel the energy building? Lunar eclipses alter your perceptions, so you can see in a new light. Fresh insights or "Aha" moments will occur to 'reflect' your transformation. You may experience ripples of energy moving up and down the spine, arms or head or around your hips. Light headedness may be experienced as the third eye awakens. There may also be buzzing in the ears, tingling within the chakras or fleeting blurry eyesight. You may smell orange blossoms, rose or sweet aromas. A clearing of the throat to speak unique truth of the heart. These are all signs you are expanding and becoming love.

 

A full moon brings about completion, release and celebration, Illuminating your inner world and deepest desires. Feel the energy of this Libra Moon highlight old imbalances that manifest as patterns and fears. This gives you the opportunity, from your now stable loving perception to transform all into love. As you heal you will become more intimate with you, seeking a balance between the needs of the self and the needs of another. Remembering the best thing you can do for another is to be in complete harmony with yourself for then you will also see them in complete harmony.

A Total Lunar Eclipse is when the Earth comes directly between the Sun and Moon, and the Moon is completely shadowed, receiving no direct light from the Sun, Lunar Eclipses open a void beyond time and space so you can access and feel your eternal being. The Moon... the Goddess... the silvery liquid light. I draw down this cleansing, clearing, healing light... transforming my whole being. Filled now with Grace, Gratitude and Love for my life and all. I can now start to tell a new story........

Bathe in the light of the moon and feel a state of equilibrium become you. Honour and love your physical and non-physical self, the body, mind and spirit. Allow them all to move into balance as you realise all have equal importance. You are not your mind, you are not your body and you are not your spirit - you are all of these, a beautiful combination that the Universe celebrates as you. Feel this and celebrate the amazing relationship you have with you - for this is the most important relationship you will ever experience and everything else in this reality is a reflection of that. All is one, Denise♥

 

Feathers

I live in an apartment in Inner Sydney. The balcony has sliding louvers that enclose it, that were closed last night. Imagine my surprise when I stepped on to the balcony this morning to see five beautiful white feathers at my feet. Such a lovely sign from my Angels that all is possible and to stay focused upon my dreams. Doubt can sometimes start to creep into my thinking - if I choose to focus upon the doubt, it leads me on a downward spiral. The feathers prod me to spiral within, back to my centre, reminding me to lighten up and focus on love instead of fear. Where in your life can you lighten your focus? 

 

 Close your eyes, breathe deeply and spiral within - Focus upon soft pink and unconditional love. You are moving beyond time and space, into unconditional love. Breathe in pink, breathe out love - Breathe in love, breathe out pink continue for at least a minute. Feel the sense of serenity and power that comes when you are at one and peace with yourself and all things. When you feel ready, embrace and be embraced by the magnificence of your physical body. Mind, Body and Spirit in complete unison.
All is well. Om Shanti, Denise♥

New Moon in Pisces, Total Solar Eclipse and The Equinox

New Moon in Pisces, Total Solar Eclipse and The Equinox. March 20th AUST EST 8.36pm, GMT/UTC 9.36am. March 19th PST 1.36pm - Solar Eclipse begins about 10 mins later. The Equinox will occur about 12 hours later.

 A Super New Moon and solar eclipse preceding the equinox, encourages and supports us all to feel into our hearts. The Solar Eclipse expands time and space within you. Expand your feeling self - feel into the very nature of you. Embrace what you love, allow and accept what you don't, all heals and your set point shifts. The Piscean new moon will support and assist, opening your inner vision to all possibilities. Then the equinox will bring all into balance as you create a paradigm shift of your set point. Also known as the assemblage point, your set point is more fluid that you think - it is an accumulation of all your collected ideas and beliefs you keep active, in other words who you think you are. You sense the world around you through the filter of your set point. Imagine your set point moves along a sliding track within you. To master yourself means to move your set point, your view of reality at will. Learning to adjust and adapt to any situation, so you stay in your centre of love, and on the path of your heart. You are Love.
You can choose to feel into the flow or resist and hold onto the old paradigm of limitations. The choice is yours and yours alone to make - do you choose love or fear, either way you will be loved by your Higher self and The Universe.

The New Moon
The New Moon always gives you an opportunity to spiral within to set intentions, plant seeds and begin anew. In Pisces we dive head on into the cosmic ocean, feel yourself let go and surrender to the greater/larger part of you. In order to serve humanity and have compassion we must start with ourselves....Pisces allow you to feel and see from your expanded higher self - this shows you and all enlightened, healed - fully in your/their power, ready to dream the dream. Open to the limitless possibilities this new moon has to offer as it connects you to "all that is". Allow it to shed light on the mysterious awakening of this time in our history, triggering something deep within us all, a reminder of who we truly are from our highest inspiration and feeling. Enjoy the journey - Right now, imagine you feel like you would when you arrive at your desired destination and you will see that nothing is missing.

The Solar Eclipse
It doesn't matter whether you see the eclipse or not for you will most certainly feel it, where ever you are upon our beautiful blue and green planet. As the sun is blocked by the moon, a black velvety, matrix of no space or time will give you the opportunity to expand into a whole new way of being. Eclipses are the celebration of big changes – They magnify all we are yet to embrace and love about ourselves and all. Feel the eclipse as a gateway - connecting you to your evolution of consciousness and step into the new paradigm of love as you transform the old beliefs still holding you back. Open yourself to excitement..., curiosity and adventure, live your life, stop thinking about it and just do it.
  
The Equinox
Mabon - Autumn Equinox in the southern hemisphere and Ostara - Spring Equinox in the northern hemisphere - a time when the light of day and the dark of night are equal.
Wherever you are, know this energy gives you an opportunity to balance and embrace all parts of yourself as you let go of any barriers and obstacles that have been holding you back from you. It is time to review and contemplate all I have accomplished and created. It is time to let go - I honour all that I have done. Whatever I have created, whatever I have accomplished, I will no longer cling to it.....I let it go.... I move on, in order to create more- accomplish more. We are one and connected to all.

 During the day feel the sun illuminate your outer world and during the night feel the moon reflecting the solar energy to illuminate your inner world. Know the power of your mind and feel the expansiveness of your heart, unite them in a sacred marriage and become one with you. The illusion of unbalanced thinking melts away - you now become love, gratitude and grace - seeing and feeling the perfection of all. Everything, person, place and situation has a core of unconditional love that is calling you to your heart, your essence, your soul. Namaste, Denise♥
 

Lammas and Imbolc

Happy Lammas in the Southern hemisphere and Happy Imbolc in the Northern hemisphere.

  

Lammas reminds us to thank Mother Earth for her abundance and express our gratitude for our own personal harvest. As the energy of the Sun begins to wane,... connect to the path within, draw inward the fulfilment of outer achievements, and feel them transform into seeds of our future.Honour your abundance and success and feel the light of the Sun flowing through you into Mother Earth. Allow your dreams and desires to flow into your seeds, seeing them held lovingly in the arms of Mother Earth, awaiting the time for growth.

Imbolc gives us the opportunity to celebrate the awakening Earth and the rising life force that initiates fertility and growth. The time for action is beginning and Imbolc reminds us to stay connected and present with our inner life as we move create and manifest in the outer world.Honour the growing strength of the sun by lighting a candle, feel the golden light surround you and flow within you - illuminating your path and giving life to our ideas, visions and dreams.

Traditionally this is today, the exact time is Wednesday - the midway point between solstices and equinoxes. Either way you can tune into this energy and expand.

The New Moon always gives you an opportunity to spiral within to set intentions, plant seeds and begin anew. In Aquarius, new ways of being and thinking give us the opportunity to embrace all as one.

Realise your truth as you expand into the star that you. Stay here for as long as you like......when you feel ready, follow your breath as it guides you back to your physical self. Open your eyes and smile Namaste, Denise

La Dolce Vita

Hearing of Anita Ekberg's passing, I was reminded of images that still burn bright in me today. When I first saw La Dolce Vita in the late seventies, it brought an excitement of possibilities and a sense of relief to my mundane, teenage suburban existence. I longed for a feeling of freedom where dreams could be realised.

 

The Trevi Fountain scene is still as powerful to me today - I see a woman allowing her inner goddess to experience life in ways that seem to move beyond every boundary I was taught not to cross. It brought hope that there were people in the world that viewed life from a different perspective without judgment. Something new stirred within me, and I began a search for a way to create a different life.

 

 

I am so grateful for the collaboration of all from this movie that introduced me to Federico Fellini's work that brought his dreams to life  - some I liked, some I didn't. However his work taught me not to judge, but just to let things be. I took what inspired me and left the rest there, this was his creation and has as much right to be in the world as everyone else's creation upon the Earth. It is not my place to judge I take what inspires me and create the life that I so desire. To this day I admire all those who create from the edge, expanding our hearts and minds.

 

What experiences in your life have opened you to the possibility all is possible? Feel the feeling and set yourself free. Namaste, Denise
