Important 2012 Guidance from Doreen Virtue & Archangel Michael

Hello and Happy New Year to All!

Here is a pertinent message from Doreen and Archangel Michael that includes the importance of clearing negative energies daily, which I am a big proponent of, and focusing on your own power/higher self for your needs.  Both very important activities for the times we live in.

 

 

 

 

 

On Imagination

I found this, from T. Lobsang Rampa's book "Wisdom of the Ancients":

  "IMAGINATION : Imagination is the picturing of one's desires or one’s fears, and imagination is the greatest force of all, greater than will-power, greater than love.   It is an old lore of psychologists that in any battle between the will and imagination, the imagination always wins, and if we try to conquer imagination by brute will-power then  we cause a neurotic condition.  The imagination still wins because the imagination causes a breakdown, so that the imagination must conquer. 

There cannot be love without imagination.  One imagines the charms of one's beloved, or one imagines that one has met one's ‘twin soul’ (as rare as apples on a gooseberry bush while on Earth!), and one imagines all the pleasures with love undying of being married to such-and-such a person.   In passing, it needs rather more than just animal passion to keep two people in harmony.

If the imagination says that one shall not do such-and-such a thing, then, no matter how strong the will, a person cannot do it.  Could you, for instance, walk along a plank suspended across the tops of two ten-story buildings?  No matter how strongly the plank was anchored your over-worked imagination would say that you were going to fall, and then you would fall, to the delight of the onlookers and to the profit of the Press who would be sure to be there. 

If you want to get results you will have to control your imagination so that it and friend will-power work together in harmony. "

 

Solstice Greetings and Abraham Quote!

Happy Solstice to All!  The Luna moths have made their debut appearance, in all their beauty, they landed on each one of us. Scroll down for pictures, aren't they glorious!

Abraham quote for the day: 

Many people focus upon unwanted things, with no deliberate attention to the emotional Guidance within them, and then they try to compensate for their lackful thinking with physical action. And because of the misalignment of Energy, they do not get results from their action, so then they try harder by offering more action, but still things do not improve.

Like the air you breathe, abundance in all things is available to you. Your life will simply be as good as you allow it to be.

--- Abraham

Elephants Painting

Some of you may have seen this before, and as many of us know, whales, dolphins and elephants are probably the most evolved beings on our planet.  But, watch the mastery this elephant has with a paintbrush!

 

 

Whales, Dolphins and Raindrops Shamanic Journey

  


It had been raining and I was feeling the happy presence of dolphins and whales for several days.  When the strong thunderstorms and strong rain came, the presence of the dolphins and whales felt much stronger, so I took a shamanic journey to further explore the inner messages I was getting.  I met with my guide and we went into a raindrop where I could see whales and dolphins.  The way my guide explained it, we were going into the raindrop to connect with the whales and dolphins, and with their blessings. 

My guide explained to me that each raindrop is a "seed" of love blessings and that the whales and dolphins were sending their love through the raindrops.  I did not get a message of warning or distress that I expected to get from them. 

I concentrated on the dolphins and one came to me and we merged.  I went on a dolphin ride and he/she showed me how they feel when they fill themselves with air.  The consider the air to be blissful and sacred, and they are so thankful/grateful for the gift of air (or life) each time.  Inhaling is a sacred act to them and they feel wonderful when they take in the air, it gives them an incredibly joyous feeling which they carry around in their bodies. 

When this feeling subsides, the rise to the surface to get more.  To the dolphins the air is full of love and is vibrant with life.  They are aware of the pollution, but they were not focusing on it at all.  It's like they weren't tuning into the pollution but just taking in the force of life, and actually feeling and living it.  They were breathing in all of life.

Edgar Cayce's Take on Earth Changes - White Light Up The Earth

I came across some of Edgar Cayce's predictions on earth changes, and it's been in the news that the poles are now moving at the accelerated rate of approximately 40 miles per year.  I found this one at http://www.near-death.com/experiences/cayce11.html:

"Cayce predicted changes to the Earth surface to begin some time between 1958 and 1998. The cause of these dramatic Earth changes will be the shift in the world's magnetic poles around the year 2000. Cayce predicted that when this pole shift occurs it would begin reversals in the world's climate so that: 

'..where there has been a frigid or semi-tropical climate, there will be a more tropical one, and moss and fern will grow.'

Cayce's prediction of a pole shift occurred in 1998. According to NASA's Goddard Space Flight Center, in 1998 something changed the Earth's gravitational field which moved the magnetic poles closer together. The NASA article explained that as the ice on the poles melted, ocean currents moved water toward the equator, which factors researchers believe to be partly responsible, in conjunction with shifts in atmospheric patterns, for this ongoing shift in the Earth's magnetic field. This NASA finding affirms Cayce's prediction of a pole shift."

And this on the official Edgar Cayce site at http://www.edgarcayce.org/are/ancient_mysteries.aspx?id=2829:

"The Japanese researcher Masaru Emoto, author of The Hidden Messages in Water, spoke at an A.R.E. conference revealing how his research with water crystals shows the positive and negative influence of human words and thoughts on water. He said that he believes the waters of the world are reacting to human energy patterns, causing many of these disasters. Cayce would likely agree; his readings state that sunspots, which affect many of our communications systems, are caused more by human attitudes and emotions than cosmic forces."

 "Our planet is actively changing. In one reading, Cayce stated that none of the physical devastation he predicted has to happen. The stability of the planet lies in humanity’s collective hands. Cayce also confirmed the biblical axiom that 10 good people can save an entire city. This brings to mind an old story told by the editor of Guideposts magazine. He received letters from two different women in a small town in California. Each told him how they were awakened in the dark hours of predawn and powerfully guided by Spirit to go out into the street of their little town and pray. They both did. Around 5 a.m., a powerful earthquake hit their town, destroying the entire downtown area, but not one person was killed or even injured. These two ladies did not know each other, living on opposite corners of the town. In this case, the prayers of two saved a town."

Right now, this very second, visualize the earth surrounded in loving, white light, with special attention to Japan and the Pacific Ocean.  For further information on this technique, see my post from August 2009 titled "White Light Up The Earth".

 

 

 

 

World Day of Prayer for Water - May 18th 3:38 PM EST.

Greetings!

This from the 13 Indigenous Granmothers.  On December 6th, 2009 at the last Council Meeting of the International Council of 13  Indigenous Grandmothers held in Sedona, Arizona, "a message was received to reach out to all belief systems to manifest energy for our Planetary waters on May 18th, 2010."

 

I know many of you would want to know about this very important day.  At 3:38 EST, all over the globe, people will be gathering with the intention to heal the waters of the Earth by praying, doing ceremony, sending love and gratitude for water and meditating, holding the highest vibrational intention for the planetary waters inside them. 

 

Eight specific bodies of water have been identified as being crucial to healing the earth and needing major healing.  They are:  Lake Superior, Lake Tahoe in California, Lake Titicaca in Peru, Lake MacKay in Australia, Lake Chad in Africa, Lake Baikal in Siberia, Lake Issyk-kul in Krygyzstan, and Lake Geneva in Switzerland.

 

Simultaneous ceremonies will be done in each location. Groups will be gathering along the banks of the Hudson, Mississippi, Arkansas, Colorado, Rio Grande, Green, Susape, Hood and Columbia Rivers.  Crystals have been placed in The Ganges in India, The Amazon in South America, The Nile in Africa and The Yangtze in China.

 

Some of us will be going to the ocean to pray and do ceremony.  If you feel inclined to

become part of this day of Global Healing, go to where you feel drawn or to local bodies of damaged water. The forces organizing this day ask that we send prayers and intentions to each of the 8 lakes mentioned above.  Crystals have been placed in them to create a grid so when we add our energies they will become linked together.  

 

Go to the 13 Grandmothers website to view their information at:

Halloween, Samhain . . .

. . . as it's known to our celtic friends (pronounced SOW-ween, SOW-in, SAH-vin, or SAM-hayne, depending on what part of the celtic world you are from), and also known as the Witches New Year (which for some is actually on the winter solstice), and also known as All Saints and All Souls Day, and also known as the Day of the Dead in Central and South America, and many other parts of the world as well.  Samhain is a cross quarter day because it is exactly in between the Autumnal Equinox and the Winter Solstice. 

To the shaman, this is the time of year when the veil between the worlds is thinest, and in cultures all over the world, it is a time of honoring those who were here before us as it is easier for them to be close to us.  It is also a time when spirits with less then good intentions can be more active, as the veil is thin making it easier for them to be here also.  It is a good idea to spend some time honoring those loved ones on the other side, as well as making sure you have your protection around you.  An ancient celtic practice was to party and laugh and get each other in such a high vibration that the troublesome spirits would literally be laughed away, because those with bad intentions can't exist in a vibration of love, light, and mirth.  The fairies, leprechauns and little people abound at this time too, and leaving offerings for them, such as chocolate, cookies, something alcoholic and sweet is much appreciated by them!

Contrary to popular opinion, the actual date of Samhain, which means "End of Summer", is not always on October 31st. The cross quarter day of Samhain occurs when the sun has reached 15 degrees in Scorpio, which for 2009 in the Eastern United States, is November 7th, at 1:42 a.m. Eastern Time. Divination is particularly clearer at this time, and all types of magic work as well.  But celebrate this time when you can as the entire season between October 31st and the Winter Solstice is a very magical and inner time where communicating with your  angels, fairies, loved ones, etc. has more support due to the natural energies that abound.

So, keep your protection around you, do something to honor your loved ones on the other side, and leave some treats for the little people, to insure you'll have friends on the other side, in this world.  Don't forget to laugh, love and let the earth fill you with mirth!

White Light Up the Earth!

This is an older post of mine, that I have reposted because I feel it is even more important today.

In spiritual healing, nothing is more basic than working with love and the white light. The white light and love heals on a very deep level and is a very strong protector as well. Daily visualizations of yourself, your loved ones, your pets, and your home surrounded with and permeated by bright, shining, white light, and love, is the best simple healing/protecting practice you can do.  So, it's no wonder that the angels have requested that before we go to sleep each night, we picture the earth surrounded by a field of bright white light. 

The angels have been telling us this for a very long time and many people have been lead to visualize the earth surrounded and held by white light and love.  One of my favorite earth/white light exercises is recommended by my shamanic teacher Sandra Ingerman in her Transmutation News, which she calls "Creating a Human Web of Light."  Sandra's exercise is done at the full moon and involves getting in touch with your own light and visualizing your light linking up with the light of others all around the planet.  Here is the link to Sandra's page so you can learn this exercise for yourself: Creating a Human Web of Light.

I have been doing the visualization of the earth surrounded in bright white light and love nightly for the past few months. I do this when I get in bed, before going to sleep, as the angels have instructed. I have to tell you, this has been the best sleep aid I've known in my entire life.  So many times, I fall asleep with a book on my belly, or with the light still on, and the next thing I know it's morning!  In the process of visualizing and and feeling the earth surrounded and held in white light and love, you are aligning yourself with the same.  After all, earth is where we live, it's what supports us.

So, start holding the planet in the white light and love of the Creator before going to sleep at night.  If you would like,  you can return to this article and post your comments .  Just click on the "comments" link at the bottom of the article. I would love to hear how many of you are doing this and I would also love you to share your experiences!

Solar Eclipse in Cancer tonight, and What You Truly Desire.

I found this very good astrology blog that explains the energies of the eclipses, and particularly the energies of tonight's solar eclipse which reaches maximum at 10:35 PM EDT (visibile over the Pacific and parts of Asia), the longest one during the present century, in a very positive light.  Check out Allison Rae's "Evolutions" at http://www.starpriestess.blogspot.com.  And remember, our thoughts are amplified during these times of planetary alignments, so tonight, let go of the unwanted and think and feel what you truly desire.  Yeah Baby!!!

Long Distance Healing, it brings me closer!

Since I moved from Connecticut to Vermont I've had many requests for my shamanic work to be done long distance.  What I've found is that my work is much clearer from a distance than when I am in actual contact. I realized that when I'm working this way it is through pure energy.  There is nothing for me to see or sense in this world that could possibly alter my  thinking or perception in relation to any situation where I am asked to help.  I've always preferred to do my angel readings and healings long distance and I've worked on  cases from personal healings, to angel readings, to clearing negative entities from homes,  with much more focus . . . . because of the lack of proximity!  Even some as far away as the  U.K. 

Some practitioners are better at long distance working than others, and of course, one could argue that my move to the mountains and trees, and away from the raging and coarse energies of the coastal cities in Connecticut, helps to keep my own energy centers from being overwhelmed, hence more clarity on my part.  Whatever it may be, my own skills at long distance work are  definitely coming to the fore, and this is a reminder to all of you reading . . . that I'm still here LOLOL!!! 

Off to the Green Mountains . . .

Yup, me and the cat are moving to Southern Vermont for a while. There, with trees for neighbors, I can drum to my hearts content.  You don't have to come up there for sessions though, I'll be traveling down to the Stamford, Connecticut area to do healing sessions, clear haunted houses, teach classes, and all that fun stuff that I do.

Love and Light,

Liz

Moving Again!

Since I've been very good to Bridgeport, and Bridgeport hasn't been very good to me, I am moving.  Except that I don't know to where! I have one cat, he's very clean and very shy, one fish tank, and lots of plants.  Does anyone know of a place from Fairfield to Stamford, CT?  Most of my work is in this area with Westport being right in the center.  Contact me here.

As always, in Love and Light,

Liz

JZ Knight and Ramtha - "Your Thoughts Matter . . . Literally"

I've been telling people for years that I saw a 35,000 year old man being interviewed on the Merv Griffin show when I was younger.  No one believed me . . . but here's the interview from 1985, on Youtube, and it is a must watch!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AK14JfRiNQ4

JZ Knight has been channeling Ramtha for about 30 or so years now, has a wonderful school where Ramtha teaches, and in fact, Ramtha is the one who coined and defined the term "channeling".  JZ has been studied and tested by scientists who, could never debunk her, the results are posted on their website at www.ramtha.com.  Here is a more recent teaching of Ramtha, "Your Thoughts Matter ... Literally":

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lLGNFcbUGdo

Some of you may recognize JZ Knight because Ramtha has also appeared in the film "What The Bleep Do We Know", you enjoyed listening to that blonde woman's profound messages, not knowing it was really Ramtha speaking.  I've been really listening to, and thoroughly enjoying, Ramtha's messages lately and wanted to share this with all of you.  I always seem to get really involved with something and then other people just seem to follow me, this time it's Larry King!  JZ Knight will be on Larry King Live tonight at 9:00 Eastern Time, in a program about mental powers, along with Edgar Mitchell, and a few other people.  I realize some of you may not get this until next week, but there are usually good videos posted on CNN after the show airs.  Just go to cnn.com and click on the red word "video" on the top right of the page.  And then, there's lots of free Ramtha videos on Youtube.com also.

Indeed!

"The Things I Wish My Mother Would Have Told Me"

I want to raise awareness of a healing play, a one woman off-broadway show in NYC, which is also a charity event.  Mia Perovetz wrote, "The Things I Wish My Mother Would Have Told Me", after losing her mother to breast cancer and returning home from working with a Lakota shaman in the Columbian jungle.  This play is about her personal journey and will raise more awareness of the value of shamanic and alternative healing, as it did in London.  Most notable to us shamanic types, this play is going on when the veil between the two worlds is thinnest, October 22, through November 2, 2008.  She's definitely got something tuned in and tapped on with her work! Tickets can be found at:  http://www.theatermania.com/ticketing/index.cfm/show/141902 , and her website is www.thethingsiwish.com

There is more fund raising needed, by July 31st.  I could write more, but read below, it's from Mia herself.

FROM MIA:

Thank you for believing in my work - that is so topical and in many ways controversial people are fearful to discuss openly some of the area's I discuss so willingly. I do believe if we can create a world where we don't feel any pressure and can communicate whats in our hearts then disorders such as anxiety, eating and phobia's, and the hole we feel when we loose someone we love can lessen slightly.

My play: The Things I Wish My Mother Would Have Told Me...is my journey through my mothers breast cancer battle and coming to terms with her passing. But beyond the surface it shows how as a little girl I always feared losing my mother long before she ever got sick and how I always wanted to run against time to be successful before she died, how I controlled these fears of not succeeding and how I controlled my fears of my mother dying was all decided on by me not eating. My mind focused completely on my body. My mother was a beautiful model mother and I wanted so much for her and everyone to see that in me before she died.

From not eating I caused havoc on my mind, I developed all kinds of phobia's. After she died I started to have panic attacks - these were all my silent cries from my body saying "I"m not coping." I decided last year (much against my fathers dismay) to go work with the Lakota tribe in Colombia and learn Shamanic Traditions and healing therapies that would unleash years of fear and pain.  After my return, I wrote my first full length one woman show, the next month I opened in London and received very promising reviews, more importantly it was the first time I admitted to anyone how I felt on the inside.  It then became my mission to bring my play to New York -

Call to Action:

I have booked a theater in the NYC at Center stage Theater - its seats 70 people in order to give a very intimate performance to my audience.  I have raised $3000.00 so far for my show, I need to raise another $8000.00 to put it on and for people to really learn and receive from it.

My Mission:

One is to raise awareness for Kids and young adults going through a bereavement - Therefore I will be doing shows for the Den for Grieving Kids.

Two: Is to share with families and cancer patients why it is important for people to seek out places to deal with fear and grief -  The Center for hope will then be sponsoring two nights.

Thirdly: I want to share and promote the benefits of alternative healing - Such as the work you do, to encourage people to seek for a truer understanding of themselves.

As we had discussed - I need to raise this money by July 31st, 2008.

I would greatly appreciate any donations from your network.

Benefactors will receive and ad in my program as a sponsor - plus tickets for my show.

I am also asking for seat dedications - Any one who has lost a loved one to cancer:

These work in different stages: The first 3  rows are $500
                                              The middle 3 rows are $200
                                             and the back 2 rows are $100

Again I am so appreciative of your help, I would be willing to meet with anyone who would be interested in helping me achieve my goals and very much my dream.

Crystal Grid Workshop

I've got a great workhop coming up.  For those of you who preferred a Saturday workshop, I tried, but it got mercury retrograded to Sunday.  So here it is, I hope you'll be there:

CRYSTAL GRID WORKSHOP
Sunday, July 20, 2008
Time: 1:00 p.m. – 5:00 p.m.
Facilitator:  Michele Fitzpatrick
Sponsored by:  Liz Oertel
Location:  Bridgeport, CT (Brooklawn Area)
Fee: $75

Elements of this workshop include:

    * Learn to use quartz and other minerals to design and activate a crystal grid
    * Attune the grid to your personal energy field
    * Program the grid to work with your Soul’s Divine Purpose

Quartz crystals can be used to filter, amplify, and transform energies in multiple dimensions. When placed in a grid formation with other minerals, these properties are significantly multiplied. In addition, the grid can be tuned to act as an antenna for connecting with energies and Spiritual Beings in other dimensions. Quartz grids are particularly useful for enhancing healing work and soul development.

Michele Fitzpatrick has been working with crystals and crystal grids for over 20 years. She is a Usui and Karuna Reiki Master and a Melchezidek Method Level 5 facilitator. She has a Masters degree in Physics and is currently studying for a Ph.D. in Geophysics, in which she applies physics principles to the Earth’s deep interior.

Crystals for the basic grid are included in the workshop fee; additional materials are extra. Feel free to bring personal stones to use. Crystals will be available for purchase after the workshop.
