The Grace of Acceptance
Notes to Myself
No matter where we are on the path to enlightenment it warrants a pause of rest and reflection. We have traveled far and gained so much knowledge and wisdom. Can we give ourselves credit for all the inner work we've done? Not only inner work, we've had to do a lot on the physical level as well, during this year of renegotiating the terms of our lives. Now is a time to just allow all of the energies around us to settle down and integrate. Be still for a m…

Notes to Myself
We are going through many adjustments and reconfigurations at this time, as we assimilate the new energy. The highly sensitive ones are feeling this in a very intense way. We have been residing in the void for quite some time now. How do you know if you are currently in the void and what are its attributes? It is an in between place that we maintain, as we are finishing up a lot of the emotional, mental, spiritual and physical work we have been doing for quite some time now. You…

Notes to Myself
This year totally sucked for me. Okay, that's not a very spiritual way of defining things. So much for the sarcasm….I'll try again. This has been a year rich in opportunity to grow in strength and wisdom, through various challenging situations. I have come to some major awareness regarding old patterns that no longer serve me, and was able to clear out a lot of emotional and mental baggage that I was carrying, disengaging from some old patterns. Better put?
It's been a really i…

Following Your Intuition
Notes to Myself
How many times have we kicked ourselves for not following our intuition?! Much of the time we receive divine guidance but we discount it or allow logic or doubt to prevent us from listening to and acting upon our intuition. We are becoming more and more sensitive and our intuition is opening up to heightened levels of awareness. All we need to do is quiet our thoughts, slow down our bodies and pay attention. When we are in a balanced state, we possess t…

Notes to Myself
I report to you from within the void. I've been residing here since perhaps June or so. It has been a very sacred space but outgoing communication has been stunted. I can't seem to string a group of words together to form a sentence or complete a thought, so please bear with me as I try to describe the energy of late.
The Full Moon effects were extremely powerful, and thus since, things have been illuminated quite well. Its as if a flashlight has been beamed into the dark reces…

Notes to Myself
The past few months have been an intense time of integration and finishing up old stuff. So many new things are coming in as the old is departing. I see this time we are in as a warm, sunny day. A day when we are just relaxing outside in the fresh air. Suddenly a big cloud comes along and shields the sun from our view. It’s not so bad since it brings a gentle breeze. No sign of a big storm is imminent, were still enjoying what we have, however, we long for the warmth of the suns…

Notes to Myself
I spent the first month and a half of my summer vacation doing little other than resting and relaxing. I thought I would embark on a project to make myself feel like I accomplished something this summer. I have a big bin of photos that I've been meaning to sort and place in albums for years now. Every time I even consider embarking on such a feat I get weary at just the thought of it. I decided now is the time to delve in and just do it! The hundreds and hundreds of photos were…

A Shift in Energy
Notes to Myself
I have been trying to write for the past few weeks but haven't been able to muster up any energy or put into words what I am thinking and feeling. I find I have enough energy to get the basics done and then after that all I can do is relax and do what I enjoy. I am appreciating the solitude and harmony of just going with the flow and be-ing in the moment.
This is a very powerful time we are in, as you must know or feel on some level. The shifts and changes ar…

Notes to Myself
We have been undergoing a deep excavation process for a long time now. We have looked deep within our hearts and dealt with a lot of things we may have buried for some time. We were bombarded with issues that needed to be handled and resolved. Many of the things we were able to handle were handled; some issues couldn’t be resolved due to circumstances. The challenges we couldn't resolve for one reason or another were placed to the side for the time being to be dealt with when th…

Letting Go
Notes to Myself
I am a very easygoing person and can be very adaptable. If there is a way that I can make someone else's life easier or help them out in any way I will always do so. I would go to the ends of the earth for the people I love and care about. I have spent so much of my life trying to please and help other people. I have had a tendency to conform to what someone's expectation of me is. I have gratefully come to a point in my life where I can no longer do it. In fact, up…

Awakening
Notes to Myself
This year has been challenging beyond belief for me, and I believe for many others as well. It has been a long time since I have had a period of such non-stop intensity. I can barely catch my breath before one set of issues is resolved and the next batch arises! I have had to really pace myself during this fluctuating time. This is a major period of intense growth in our evolutionary process. We are having to pay close attention to our health, finances, and relationsh…

My beautiful dog, Staci, a shepherd mix, that I've had for 13 years, got a terrible infection in her leg last week. I rushed her to the vet and she was diagnosed with cancerous tumor that caused it. I'm so grateful that the antibiotics have worked to clear up the infection, and my beloved companion is back to her usual perky self. She doesn't have much time to live since this type of cancer spreads pretty quickly. The vet told me, take her home and love and appreciate her for as…

Notes to Myself
Our planet is humming with energy. We can sense and feel the vibrations of the collective consciousness and all the massive changes underway. We are being inundated with so much information and stimuli that our systems are being overloaded. Our lives can become so busy that we barely have a minute to clear our heads and catch a breath. We have so many ways of keeping ourselves plugged in with the multitude of electronic devices and ways of communication that we can very easily d…

Notes to Myself
Since the beginning of the year things have been like a rollercoaster ride. It seems like it has been one thing after another to deal with. Like a rollercoaster, as you slowly travel up before the big plunge, the anticipation builds and you wonder what is to come. You feel a little out of control but excited to experience the ride. While we have faith that everything is going to work out, it has still been a lot to handle. Once you are at the top of the rollercoaster there is a…

Notes to Myself
I have been experiencing quite a few challenges lately. It has been unbelievably one thing after another. I am finally getting to a point where I'm beginning to feel better health wise, but still need to rebuild my strength and stamina. When you are not feeling well or experiencing difficulties it’s hard to remember what it felt like to feel good or have it easy. Alternately when you are feeling good and things are going well you forget about the bad times.
I have been experien…

I was in a Wyland Gallery many years ago and was introduced to the paintings by the artist James Coleman. From the moment I saw his paintings I was deeply touched, he is my favorite artist of all time. When I gaze at the scenes he creates of the Lighthouse my hear…

Notes to Myself
I took my dogs for a walk tonight right around dusk. I was so fortunate to witness in the night sky the crescent moon (which is my mom’s favorite) with the planet of love, Venus, just above it. It was such a spectacular site, which warmed my heart! It made me feel hopeful to witness such beauty.
I must honestly admit that this week has taken its toll on me. I am so exhausted and depleted from everything that has been happening in my life and to the people I care about that I fe…

Notes to Myself
I asked my friend the other day, "When will I ever feel normal?" She looked at me like it was a trick question. Her reply to me was, "Stefanie, you are not "normal" but in a good way, you're special. Being sensitive makes you unique but it is what makes you who you are."
It is becoming more and more challenging to be in busy, noisy places. I have to brace myself for being around lots of people by making time to relax before I go out and time to recoup afterward.
It's frustrati…

Notes to Myself
This past full moon and lunar eclipse were very powerful for me. I experienced the energies quite intensely. The night before and after the full moon I couldn't sleep at all. I experienced all the pent up emotions I carried within me. A major illumination finally occurred to me concerning a situation I repeatedly attract in my life. I realized I attract people that will tell or show me in various ways that I am not good enough. I have struggled with low self esteem throughout my…

The Journey of Life
We are on this magical journey called life. We are so fortunate to be here. There is so much to experience and many opportunities abound. We only need to look around and we can discover the blessings.
I recently had my birthday. I get so excited every year. My friend mentioned to me, you know you are only getting older, are you sure you want to broadcast it? She said a birthday is not THAT big of a deal. For me honoring someone's birth is important. It is a…
