The past 6 days leading into tomorrow has been all about action. It is time to realize that our intuition is RIGHT. What ever you have be doing during this time will have powerful consequences.

There is no more denying what needs to change in your life, you must now do it. The planetary energy is now fully supporting you to say YES! What am I saying yes to you ask... well you have been mulling this over for several months and you have just gotten that your innering callings are correct.

Can you feel it?

During the next three weeks we will be like detectives and will get to the absolute root of all matters. This period is known as the "Shadow of Mercury Retrograde." It occurs before the actual Retrograde period of Mercury, which is a clean out period, as we learn to become effective communicators person to person, OR not. (The  latter will cause great distress, I do not recommend.) To effectively communicate can be a challenge, uncomfortable and create more moments of relief. It is absolutely necessary.

I need you to start making notes of the themes that are showing up in your life over these shadow weeks as these will be the very issues that you can clear and sort out during the retro of Oct 20 through Nov 9.

Where we are right now is an intense period and if used wisely, we can delve into our own truth, rather than to blame others or focus on their right or wrong doings. I was reading one of planetary calendars this morning, it speaks of the "Volatility Vortex." The last time these energies surfaced was the mid 1960's. So as I am reading about government, politics, unstable minds and markets, I then had my AHH moment. This astrologer foretold of our government shutting down by reading the signs that the planets have put in place. This astrologer told of this a year ago as this calender went to print. I digress, I apologize, I saw something shiny....

Okay back to us.... in three weeks, the planet Mercury will begins its THIRD and FINAL retrograde of 2013. Right now we need pen and paper in hand to document what issues are prevalent in our lives, write it all down: thoughts, feelings, difficulties and ALL moments of joy. These are what we will be getting clear on during the three weeks of retrograde coming up in three weeks. (hahaha, side note - everything in threes.)

I have a strong feeling that I will have three themes that I will get clear on and move forward in a blissfully productive and happy way. Let me know what themes you have come up. This will give you a good idea of what to expect over the retro period that will test your communication skills on a levels of being.

Have a great week, bust it wide open and make a difference today. As we continue this journey together, know that I love you, I am grateful for this experience, God is and that is my truth.

Faith is elastic...

My belief is based on blind faith. I have had an interesting life, realized through diving timing that I create my reality: the good, the bad and the divinely inspired.

As there are no coincidences, I truly know that God works in unexpected places through unexpected people, at unexpected times ~ in our highest good. God brought into my life people who exposed me to thoughts, actions and ways that have led me to my now moment. I was taught one lesson time and time again, when a person shows you who they are...believe them. I have a life changing experience where for me, I truly wanted to believe this person would reach their potential with my assistance. Guess what? They did not ask for my assistance nor did they want it. What a lesson that was when it was finally delivered and received fully.

On a brighter note, 11 years ago I was graced with a beautiful baby girl who has blossomed into a caring, charismatic, authentic young lady ever. I could not be more blessed as she was a gift from my blind faith that against all western medicine odds, I was to be a mother. She is the middle of three incredible beings who call me "mama." God is so good to me.

This brings me to Faith. Faith is elastic. Stretch it to the end of your demonstration. When you hope - Hope looks forward, Faith actually knows is has already received and acts accordingly.  Remember this ~ fear feeds and thrives on negative thoughts yet starves on Faith.

I truly create my realty and see how quickly my thoughts make manifest. I leave you with this to carry your through your week:

The light of God now wipes all fear, doubt, anger and resentment. God's love pours through me as an irresistible magnetic current. I see only perfection and draw to me my own.

As we continue this journey together, know that I love you, I am grateful for this experience and God is and that is my truth.

Words as your wand...

Use your words for good ~ you have bottled up your truth for way too long and today you get a planetary helping hand to clear out.

Your word is your wand. As we formulate our thoughts, our brains actually create images of scenarios ~ the feelings that we attach to this will be the energy that is submitted to the field of attraction.  We will receive our desires, which will be positive or negative. You choose as you choose your thoughts.

As we use our words for good, remember that it is better to encourage than condemn. Thrive where you are planted in this NOW moment.  Embrace the beauty of your surroundings.

Stop ~ find 5 gratitudes for every negative thought or situation that you find yourself in. Amazement will be yours as you find how quickly you change your world.

Finally say with me ~ "All is well, only good can come of this as I am a powerful creator and everything is happening for my highest good."

As we continue this journey together, know that I love you, I am grateful for this experience and God is and that is my truth.

The Energies of July

June certainly turned out to be an action packed month. With two eclipses and the Solstice, everyone was affected by some aspect of June's energies. Whether it was a necessary ending, a forced realization or a life change whose time had come, there was a finality to the shifts that occurred which did not leave any question as to the need to take a different path, to change a belief or to consider other options. We all learned lessons about expectations, release and closure that came in many forms, often from those we least expected. And to have closure and start on a new path we learned that we should release the teacher so we could embrace the lesson.

July opens with another eclipse, this one creating a powerful opening for new beginnings that are possible when we have released the past. Some of what occurred in June may feel like unfinished business because we don't have closure. But part of June's lessons were to give ourselves the closure we want from someone. Are they sorry, did they mean it, do they care, could things have been different?  None of those questions matter because this was our lesson in releasing those things, including people, which limit our joy. And that release may have come in an abrupt way that we weren't ready for.

If we focus too much on closure and the ending, we do not allow the next door to open. No matter how difficult the lesson, closure is something we often have to give ourselves and hoping that someone will give it to us only delays the inevitable realization that the new beginning we ask for also requires an ending in some aspect of our life. This month will, in some ways, be a welcome relief from the last six months of activity, partly because we can start expanding our lives based on the lessons that we have learned.

But this is not a process of re-building because everything has changed. This is a fresh start, a new beginning that requires new thinking, different energies and a total break from the past. July's potential may be delayed if we approach it from a focus on the past and try to rebuild from its ashes. To fully utilize these energies we have to use what we learned from January through June to re-invent ourselves. What do we want, what makes us happy, how much are we willing to expand our vision of our life and its potential? And, most importantly, how much are we willing to set our intention and trust that it will unfold in the most perfect way? We have powerful support for re-invention this month, as we step into the second half of 2011. Whatever it takes to give you closure, do it now so you can release the past and step forward into a confident, bright and powerful new beginning. Have a great month.

I so love this article by Jennifer Hoffman. It is spot on. We are in new energies, I love it, I am grateful. I thank my teachers for their lessons were pertinent for my growth which has allowed me a life better than I could ever imagine. Thank you~

Now you my friend must do the same thing. Whatever it takes to give you closure, do it now so you can release the past and step forward into a confident, bright and powerful new beginning. Thank you for stepping into your power, grace and glory. Remember that we at Aromatic Institute are here to assist in your growth through the incredible presence of nature through plant botanicals.

Transforming Challenges

It is important to remember that it is far more effective to hold all that you are concerned with in the container of gratitude. It may seem difficult, however, we invite you to continue to be creative and envision the best rather than worry about the worst. Begin to see the most amazing outcome happening, hold that vision with the tenderness of a gardener and her new seedling. You are far more effective in supporting their healing and well-being by seeing them at their best. When a thought of concern or worry comes to your active mind, quickly find something about this situation in which you are grateful. It can be a simple gratitude. Pre-plan these gratitude's, have a file of miracles, blessings easily ready to grab when needed. 

The minute you are aware that you are dropping into a place of worry or concern, take a deep breath, sigh and replace the worry thought with one that has a lighter flavor, a more coherent frequency. This is a conscious exercise, it is what is yours to do right now. You can be the anchor for your loved ones to hold on to, the vibration that they will entrain with, the link to their strength and well-being.
 .
During these times of great change and great evolutionarily shifts, it is most important for those who are aware to hold a firm and stable platform for all those who are striving to transform some dysfunction. Remember that you are a transformer; everyone is a transformer of dense, dysfunctional patterns and energy. However these dysfunctional patterns and energy manifest in your life and the lives of others, they are there to be processed and transformed through the conscious system of an awakened multidimensional being. This is the same tool to use with any situation and thought patterns that do not support your joy and well-being, whether it is health, finances, personal relationships, jobs or family.

You can align yourself with the flow of well-being, and joy simply by holding a clear and firm frequency of gratitude. The mind loves to solve problems, to worry, to fret, to be concerned. That is what the mind loves to do and the mind will hijack your time doing just that. This is the old paradigm; this is what you are shifting and transforming. Realize that it is just a pattern of thought; it is just an old emotional frequency that still resides inside the system of your mind. It is important to understand and realize that you are moving into a new paradigm in which you will hold a vision, a thought, and intention of what you desire to manifest and it will be so.

So this day we invite you to return to a state of gratitude as often and a frequently as possible.  Know that your loved ones also have patterns to shift and transform, that is theirs to do. Know that your loved ones are also magnificent multidimensional beings who agreed to assist in the transformation of dysfunction on this planet, in all its many forms. Each one has a purpose, an assignment, a soul agreement that they are in the process of completing. Support them with your highest and your best thoughts and emotions for them. They will feel this on the subtle planes of consciousness. Your blessings will embrace them and lift them up, your joy will light their way.

We invite you to call upon the celestial and divine realms of truth, love and light, assistance and support is as close as the request. Know that we are always as near has your heartbeat and as close as your breath. Be at peace beloved, know that all is well.

Hey y'all, we are in some very interesting times where we are being asked to step up, tune in, dial up. This is not for those with nay sayer mentality - we are embarking on unchartered territory in which we are the pioneers of heart space, effective energetic emittants and tremendous growth in our souls. AMAZING...  We are now between two powerful eclipses (the first one happened on 6/1 and the second one on the Full Moon on 6/15.) According to ancient belief this is a MAGICAL manifesting time. Obstacles can be removed. What do you want gone from your life? Intention THAT this week! Visit me at the Aromatic Institute.

Until next time,

Whose Truth is True...

We spend our lives wanting to know the truth because, as we are told, 'the truth shall set us free.' But as we search for the truth we begin to see that there is not a single truth, everyone has a different version of the truth and even in our own lives, that which we think of as true can change many times. So what is true and what is not true? If a truth changes, was it ever true in the first place? Will we ever know the truth? And when we know the truth, what happens to everything else we have known up to that time?

The truth is everything we believe based on all of our knowing and experience up until that moment in time. While we look for the truth as the final answer, it is actually what allows us to ask the next question. Truth repeats itself, like an endless loop, until we uncover a new truth that allows us to move forward, beyond the former truth. Each truth leads to another truth and for each of us, that truth is highly personal and so individualized that it can only be true for us. While our truth is true for us, everyone's truth is also true, for them. Can we connect with others from the point of our own truth? We can when our truth has points in common and there is no doubt present.

The truth that we deserve love, for example, is true for us. And we must have an unshakable belief in this truth to attract love. But what happens if we find someone who doesn't believe we are lovable? Is our truth still true? What about their truth? Is it true for us too? Our truth is not affected when it cannot be validated by someone else, it simply means that it isn't true for them. They can't validate that we are lovable because they must have a corresponding truth-that they are lovable. If they do not hold that truth, then they cannot validate it for someone else. But we take this as a sign that our truth is not true and use it to judge ourselves, our truths, our being and our life. Whoever we ask to validate our truth must have a corresponding truth. If not, they cannot validate ours. So the person who cannot accept you as lovable has issues with accepting themselves as lovable.

When we want others to validate our truth we are taking truth down a path that it wasn't meant to follow. Because when we ask others to establish what is true for us, we are speaking from our doubt instead of faith in our own truth. If we can't convince ourselves of our truth, we won't find anyone to do the job for us. What do you believe is true about you? Can you hold that truth no matter how others respond or react? Are you able to create from your truth in this moment and know that once you have made this true, you are ready for the next step on your life? Find your truth about yourself, engrave it permanently on your heart and within your being so you hold fast to your truth and use it to manifest your life in the way you want to live it.

Hey y'all,

I am amazed with gratitude for the abundance of truth in the universe.  I have spoke to several clients this past week who are dealing with perception (theirs and others.) I speak my truth daily and know with unfathomable faith that it IS my truth. It is the most liberating aspect I have yet to experience. Go ahead, try it, you just might like it! As always, visit us at the Aromatic Institute where you can find the right remedy for a perfectly balanced you.

Until next time,

The Dis-ease of Minimizing

When I began the Shadow Process with Debbie Ford a few ago, the transformation was so very powerful. I went from being resigned, angry, and worn out to having my eyes flooded with light. My smile can light up a room. My hearts is open and I hold possibility in my hands.

It's such a miracle to witness transformation. And it always begins with a desire for change that is so strong that one decides to commit and make all the arrangements that go into taking the time away for themselves. That intention and that commitment drives our unconscious in a new direction. And after days of going within, saying things I never thought I would say, sharing secrets with new friends, and laughing so hard at the absurdity of being human, voila! I became someone that is unrecognizable not just to the people around me but also to myself. This is what I live for: to see the transformation in others.

But what could pull people down or bring them back to their old ways? The almighty Minimizer.

The following is directly from Debbie Ford:

"The Minimizer showed up three days after I arrived home from a Shadow Process Workshop. I was listening to a very disturbing conversation about someone who had trained with me for over three years, someone who I watched transform from a crying, angry, powerless woman to a strong, independent, self-respecting and talented transformer. Here, years later, I heard that this woman was angry at me and one of my staff and that she was saying quite horrible things about me despite all the value she had gotten (the gifts are beyond anything I could list). For a moment, I was perplexed that she could minimize the hundreds of transformational moments she had with us, all that she had learned, all the ways that she had grown, and then I realized that she had just been afflicted with the dis-ease of minimizing. She couldn't remember anything good. In fact, she was caught in her own projections. This is a classic example, and we are all in danger of coming down with this dis-ease. Maybe we minimize our mothers who cared for us, who carried us around, who fed us, who drove us to school or afterschool activities. Years later, we focus on what we didn't get from them, what didn't work, or the incidents we feel scarred us. Or maybe we minimize our teachers who supported us, pushed us, told us that we could be better than we are, and now we can't even remember their names. Maybe we minimize the impact that our exes had on our lives, even if they tried to make us better people, supported us in bringing forth our gifts, or gave us our kids who we love. In the midst of heartache, all we can remember is what we didn't get.

The ability to minimize those who have been the great contributors to our lives has deeper consequences than we can really imagine. As we minimize all that we have received, we are also minimizing ourselves. When we are not in deep gratitude or appreciation for the growth that has been given to us, when we spend our energy making others wrong, finding their flaws or just being ungrateful, the effects are far-reaching. We actually draw forth that same minimization inside ourselves. We hear the voice of our Minimizer inside our own minds. "I'm not strong enough, not good enough, not young enough, not lucky enough." Sound familiar? That's the voice of the Minimizer. "I could have done better. I should have done better. That person should have done this for me, said this to me, looked at me like this, talked to me like this." The Minimizer exists right now inside of you and if you want to take your power back and remember who you are and let the light shine bright through your eyes, you can do this by busting through your Minimizer. You can start by acknowledging all those you have minimized. As you acknowledge what you did receive, what did support you, what did help you, what did change you, what did move you forward in your life, you remind yourself of the true gifts of another and at the same time, you acknowledge the gift that you have been to another.

This week, allow yourself to see all those you are making wrong, all those you are projecting on, all those who have given you new life in some way that you are hating on. And then transform the lens through which you see these people. Start to write down the gains, what you've gotten, how you've grown, who you've met, and who you've become. There, you will find the power and be able to heal the dis-ease of minimizing." 

This is a gift from me to you, please love yourself enough to explore so you too can heal from the dis-ease of minimizing.

Until next time, 

Sweet Kisses and Aromatic Wishes...
