As the frost subsides, yes in Minnesota we are just now getting beyond frost warnings, I am ogling over my seedlings.  I imagine the bright beautiful flowers and the vibrant, tasty vegetation coming from our mother earth.  Once again I am reminded of how amazing the bounty of our world is when we do our work as caretakers.  Everything has its cycle.  If we all do our part to maintain balance the natural cycle will continue.  I have been adding one new thing each month this year to help our mother earth.  Last month I committed to stop buying bottled water and fill a reusable container with the filtered water from my home.  This month I have started washing my clothes in cold water.  I have to believe that every little bit helps.  I can only hope that we all will wake up and consciously make choices to continue the natural cycle of life on earth, co-creating a beautiful future.

I was reminded recently of the natural cycles and balance of light and dark among humanity too.  As the world is shifting, we all feel it consciously or unconsciously.  Many of us who have made the conscious choice to do our spiritual work as energetic caretakers are now holding a much greater light and peace than ever before.  Those who have remained spiritually unconscious seem to be emerging in a panic - I believe still unconsciously.  I have seen in many clients over that past several weeks that they have picked up a fair amount of energetic garbage from others that are energetically out of balance and are trying to find some way to get rid of it.  The lower vibrational energy from others garbage throws off the higher vibrations that we have worked to attain.  While it certainly can be removed, that kind of hit can be rather disruptive.  I myself had the very unpleasant experience of someone trying to actually steal my light.  I have to say to witness that level of sorcery was well beyond creepy, but it was fascinating to watch the experience energetically.  Kids, don't try this on your own.  If you find yourself in a similar situation, just get out of it as quickly as you can.  Taking the opportunity to stay present with the situation for observation purposes certainly has its consequences - more than I had expected. 

I have given my "How to stay balanced in an unbalanced environment" lecture several times this past month.  A question has surfaced every time I presented this lecture; "What do you do about the people that just suck you dry?"  My response is this: see what it is that throws your off balance and take the healing opportunity for yourself and as quickly as you can get out of the vampire's path.  For most of us, it's in our nature to want to mother and nurture others, but there is absolutely nothing you can do for the ones that are out of balance and don't see it or choose to do nothing about it.  The love and nurturing that you send only seems to disappear into a black hole.  Until they realize that they can't feed off other people's energy, they will not change their behaviors.  So it is up to us to stop enabling the energy suckers by holding our own and staying clear of their path, hoping that when they run out of energy they will be forced to find their own source and join in the natural cycle of give and take.

We have all have worked too hard to let anyone steal or waste our energy.  Hold your own and share the love with those that you wish to love and nurture and those that will also in turn give it back to the natural cycle of life.  These actions will continue to expand the light of the divine feminine and we will anchor peace and beauty in our lives as we walk with our mother earth.

Co-create and nurture the peace and beauty you desire.

with love,
