Love & Unity are on their way 🎊❤️

As a collective, we have been preparing for this time we are in for many lives. We have chosen to be born at this time.

It is not the darkness that should scare us, but our incapacity to navigate our relating with our light, morals, and humanity intact and our capacity to keep our compass on the shining star of Love.

Seeds grow in darkness and still find their way to the light.

Challenging times call for revolutionary work, my teacher told me. Prophecies of rebirth, eagle & condor, rainbow warriors, are unfolding over hundreds if not thousands of years. Many parts of those prophecies warn us of a very dark time before the light will shine again.

Societal collapse, also known as civilizational collapse, is a complex phenomenon characterized by eight parameters that all large and powerful civilizations faced before collapsing. And we have eight of them right now. It is not something to be afraid of but to be deeply conscious of as we walk our path.

Indeed, there is also the grief of the losses. Losses of friends who have forsaken their humanity for an illusion of freedom. Grief to witness that it is ok for too many to pretend that mocking disabled people is ok, to call immigrants vermin ok, to threaten anyone who disagrees with oppression and dismissive labels, to say that “we are ok” when what it means is “I am safe with my privileges, skin color, and sexual orientation.”

There is grief for the voiceless, the lands, animals, trees, and Earth beings that are less of a priority compared to capitalism, greed, power, ego, the circus of politics, and old men throwing tantrums like a five-year-old.

We have been preparing for this time we are in for many lives:

How to return to our prayer.

How to navigate the darkness.

How to stay connected to the land.

How to weave beauty and music in the wounds.

How to build open, inclusive, and loving communities.

How to witness mental & emotional purge with compassion.

How to stay connected to wise elders, teachers and traditions who carry those ancient prayers of unity and compassion.

We have the tools. We have the songs. We have the prophecies. We have the anchors. We have the roots.

And we have the web of relations that whispers more than ever that there is another way that does not praise the stock market, the billionaires, or the cultish followings as a benchmark of our success.

More than ever, we need each other to heal what hate and fear have separated. The false beliefs and stories of this dying colonial world that give justification for abomination, land grabs, and demonization of the ‘others.’ It’s our unity and compassion that will bridge these divides and bring us closer together.

Even if our dream is tender today, our dream is more alive than ever. More necessary. More present in all of our decisions and actions.

The darkness that births the seeds is birthing a powerful force of determination and commitment to another possible world. And even if we are tired or anxious, our eyes have a calm, warming light that keeps showing us the way into a new world.

That world, a world of Love and unity, is on its way.

Be patient. Keep it in your prayers. Shower it with your Love.

Ever lasting love ❤️

Love never truly fades. Even when someone is no longer part of your life, the love you felt for them remains within you. It transforms and becomes a part of your emotional landscape, but it doesn’t disappear. Learning to live without someone you once loved deeply is one of the hardest lessons, but over time, you find a way to carry on, holding that love in a different, quieter place within your heart.

Advice: It’s okay to still feel love for someone, even after they’re gone. Healing is about learning to live with that love, not erasing it.

Seeing things / people as they are

May You Always See People for Exactly Who They Are, Not Who You Fantasize Them to Be.

May clarity and discernment be your guides in relationships, allowing you to navigate the complexities of human connection with wisdom and intuition. May you recognize the beauty of authenticity and resist the temptation to idealize or romanticize others.

Seeing people for who they truly are, flaws and all, is a gift of emotional intelligence and maturity. It allows you to:

Build genuine connections based on mutual understanding

Set realistic expectations and boundaries

Avoid disappointment and heartache

Foster healthy relationships built on trust and respect

Cultivate empathy and compassion for others’ struggles

May you be brave enough to look beyond the facade, to peel back the layers and reveal the true nature of those around you. May you recognize that everyone has their own story, their own struggles, and their own strengths.

In doing so, you’ll discover:

The beauty of imperfection and vulnerability

The value of honest communication and active listening

The importance of embracing differences and diversity

The strength of forgiveness and understanding

The liberation of letting go of unrealistic expectations

Remember, people are complex and multifaceted, full of contradictions and paradoxes. May you approach each relationship with curiosity, empathy, and a willingness to see the truth.

As you navigate the intricate web of human connections, may you remain grounded in reality, yet open to the possibility of growth, transformation, and redemption. May your relationships be built on the foundation of authenticity, mutual respect, and a deep understanding of each other’s humanity.

I am here

There is a kind of secret strength.

It lives in you and no one, not even you, knows it’s there.

It lives inside you, waiting for the day it’s needed, waiting for the darkest hour of the darkest night.

And then, when you are defeated, when your heart is so broken you don’t know if it can ever be put back together again, it whispers,

“Hello. You don’t know me. But I am here.”

lain S. Thomas 💫

Mourning on your own

“Survivors do not mourn together. They each mourn alone, even when in the same place. Grief is the most solitary of all feelings. Grief isolates, and every ritual, every gesture, every embrace, is a hopeless effort to break through that isolation.None of it works. The forms crumble and dissolve. To face death is to stand alone.”

― Steven Erikson

December 21 Invitation

I am being called to organize a global meditation for the anchoring of the new earth and unity consciousness on Dec 21st! There is also a woman in Norway that has been called to do the same on the same date. I have no clue how to organize this but was hoping to receive some guidance and insight from you all. We are preparing to usher in the golden age and we need to unite! ❤️

Nature Loves Courage

“Nature loves courage. You make the commitment and nature will respond to that commitment by removing impossible obstacles. Dream the impossible dream and the world will not grind you under, it will lift you up.

This is the trick. This is what all these teachers and philosophers who really counted, who really touched the alchemical gold, this is what they understood. This is the shamanic dance in the waterfall. This is how magic is done. By hurling yourself into the abyss and discovering it’s a feather bed.”

– Terence McKenna

Do not fall away now

It’s when the earth shakes

And foundations crumble

That our light is called

To rise up.

It’s when everything falls away

And shakes us to the core

And awakens all

Of our hidden ghosts

That we dig deeper to find

Once inaccessible strength.

It’s in times when division is fierce

That we must reach for each other

And hold each other much

Much tighter.

Do not fall away now.

This is the time to rise.

Your light is being summoned.

Your integrity is being tested

That it may stand more tall.

When everything collapses

We must find within us

That which is indomitable.

Rise, and find the strength in your heart.

Rise, and find the strength in each other

Burn through your devastation,

Make it your fuel.

Bring forth your light.

Now is not the time

To be afraid of the dark.

🌓

Breakthrough

‘When life breaks you, it is because you are ready to be put back together differently.

Every piece of you that feels shattered is a piece that will find a new place, a new purpose, a new meaning.

Trust that the cracks are where the light gets in. And sometimes, in our brokenness, we find our greatest wholeness.

We find the courage to rebuild, to reimagine, to redefine what it means to be strong.

You are not broken; you are breaking through.’

Bob Martin – Today I’ll lick my wounds

Today, I Will Lick My Wounds
Wednesday, November 6, 2024 5:10 AM

Today, I will lick my wounds
and feel the deep ache of losing not just candidates,
but a way of life I thought I understood.
Everything feels distant, unfamiliar—
as though I’ve awoken in someone else’s country.
The urge to disappear presses down on me,
a heavy fog that whispers,
“Quit. Hibernate. Let the world move on without you.”

But I think of Frankl in the camps,
Mandela in his cell,
the Dalai Lama without a homeland,
Anne Frank dreaming of skies beyond her attic walls.
They refused to let the world steal their happiness,
refused to let suffering define their spirit.

I remind myself:
No decisions in this state of mind.
Just a breath,
then another.
Today, I rest and gather strength,
for tomorrow, I teach.

I have my practice—
a sanctuary built in the tolerance of discomfort,
and twelve bright souls,
who depend on me to rise.
For them, I will stand in front of the class,
share what I know,
and keep moving forward.

I will not let this darkness take more than it already has.
I will survive.
I will teach.
I will find, somehow, a way to be at peace
even when my country does not feel like my own.

The path is uncertain, but it is still mine to walk.
