Luminous Humanness

Luminous Humanness

Guess who awakens? You! Not some squeaky clean, saintly, superhuman version of you. Awakening does not blissfully relieve you of all the parts of yourself you really hoped would disappear. Welcome home!

Waking Down

I was midway through a walking meditation that I regularly practice whereby I envision my small self being embraced by my Big Self (my Goddess Queen), when something new and radical occurred to me.  I was shown the reverse of this visualization…I saw my small self open her arms and invite my Big Self/Goddess Queen into her.  When my Big Self entered into my small self, something profound happened, I felt light shooting through the cracks in my heart… I felt more grounded than I’d felt in a long time, like I didn’t have to try to maintain feeling Big…I felt solid in my light, and in my humanity.  Just then, like a neon billboard in my mind I saw the words, “Luminous Humanness”. 

When I arrived at home, there was a recording session taking place…and all the musicians were talking excitedly about this natural wonder they had just witnessed.  On top of the head of the Buddha statue in our back yard sat a lizard with its mouth stuffed full with a gigantic red/yellow monarch butterfly.  The wings were still flapping on either side of the lizard’s face.

“Luminous Humanness,” burst out of my mouth…everyone turned to stare at me… so I continued, “Nature is showing us that perhaps our divinity is no longer something to try so hard to raise ourselves to, like catching butterflies in a net…it is showing us to allow light in, swallow all the colors, brilliance, power and divinity in to our mouths, our bones, our breath, our blood, our human lives and circumstances…to let our body temples be host to the multi-colored wings of the Holy spirit…not elusive and outside ourselves, but rather right here and now feeding us it’s wisdom and healing in the very place where we are… allowing us to fully shine in all or our resplendent Luminous Humanness!”

Affirmation

I feast and digest my luminosity into who and what I am in this human incarnation as I anchor the queendom of heaven here on earth, here and now!

Out Of The Lack Shack And Into The Mansion Of Expansion

Out Of The Lack Shack And Into The Mansion Of Expansion

“My Father’s house has many mansions.”  The Holy Bible

One day as I was walking on the beach, I was feeling anxious as I was asking God to show me a way out of my drama du jour, when suddenly, a voice popped into my head, “My Father’s house has many mansions.”

I thought cynically, “What does it have to do with my current circumstances?” 

I suddenly felt a rush of tingling energy as the ‘voice’ continued, “My Father’s house has many mansions, however, lately you’ve been living in the Lack Shack.  No matter how much you have, it’s never enough!  You feel as if your life is in peril over very minor things.  What a shame that someone who has been given so much has such a poverty mentality.  Don’t you know that if you wanted to, in an instant you could move out of the Lack Shack and into the Mansion of Expansion?

Just then the clouds in my mind parted, and I could see my Mansion of Expansion majestically rising out of the Garden Of My Dreams.  It was built upon the Holy Ground of Infinite Possibilities… furnished with the desires of my Heart and Soul… lavishly decorated with Grace, Beauty, Love, and Peace. 

As I approached my Mansion of Expansion, I could feel the vibration of Abundance swelling higher and higher within me. I felt the physical and emotional sensation of all my needs being met.  It was true, that from this place in consciousness, I literally lacked nothing… (regardless of what my bank statement read).  Just as I was nestling into the coziness of it all, I heard the ‘voice’ warmly say, “This is your Mansion of Expansion.  This is where you’re from.  This is where you belong.  This is where you are always coming back to.  Welcome Home!” 

Affirmation: 

I remember that the key to my True Residence lies in the awareness of my Oneness and Union in God. My Father’s house has many mansions, and in my Mansion of Expansion, I am always at home!

Bubble Bath Bliss & Beyond

From Inner Visions Magazine:

Bubble Bath Bliss & Beyond

“I love myself so much, that I can love you so much, that you can love you so much, that you can start loving me!” 

Rikki Byers & Rev. Michael Beckwith

A few days ago I was having one of those “comedy of errors” days, where, in retrospect, it is easy to laugh at all my mishaps, but, at the time, it was not easy for me to find the humor. In other words, the dust and grit of the day had taken its toll.  When my husband, Dana, and I finally made it home that night, instead of sulking, or picking a fight to get out my frustration, I promptly informed Dana, “I am going to have a Spiritual Bubble Bath!”  He graciously gave me my space (I think he was relieved that I was going to do something positive about my foul mood.)

I quickly made a B-line for the Bathtub. I lit some candles, incense, turned on some soft music, and created a heavenly sanctuary in my bathroom.  As soon as my tiptoes touched the warm, bubbling, fragrant water, I felt a transformation washing over me.  As I imagined that I was cradled in divine love, a mantra sprung into my mind:

Illusions of old,

No longer hold,

A place in my Mind,

Heart, Body, or Soul.

I scrub away the pain,

Release it down the drama drain,

As the Goddess I was born to be

Arises from the bubbles, and reveals herself as me!

When I emerged from my spiritual reverie, in my terrycloth robe and towel twisted hair, all Dana could say was, “Wow, she’s back!” 

I am in awe at how simple acts of self-love, like a bubble bath, a kind word, a loving touch, or kind deed, can literally bring us back to ourselves.   When my inner well is filled with self-love it is natural and effortless to be the giver that I was born to be.

Affirmation:
I take my inner sanctuary with me everywhere I go, and into everything I do.  I am constantly reminded that I am cradled and soaking in the unconditional love of the Divine!
