Essence of Being :: The Shift

Namaste.

Journeying with crystals, has and continues to be such a comfort to me. Being able to tangibly experience their light, energy, colour and beauty is like a starry balm for the soul. Through simply being, a crystal shines, sparkles, and shimmers with rainbow light as it radiantly reflects the essence of divinity. And I remember…

My true nature is to shine. Just like a beautiful crystal, the essence of who I am remains unblemished. However, as I move through life, the essence of purity becomes hidden, obscured, and shrouded by my sense of who I am (my perceptions). As one who is highly sensitive to her surrounds, I am quite easily distracted from the conscious realization of the higher aspects of my consciousness.

Within the moment, I may choose to remember, to actively embrace myself as a creative soul, operating from a point of humility, love, acceptance and allowance :: to simply “be”.

Making the shift, to being mindful and present within the now moment is incredibly empowering. Such clarity abounds within the moment. The realization that who I truly am, transcends the past and where I come from, as well as the sum of my future potentials. In the timeless essence of the moment I am simply aware of myself as a silent witness, immersed within and expressing as pure conciousness.

Within the shift, I am becoming more proficient in the art of living. I now view life as a masterfully crafted game. A game that exists in many dimensions. However, for now, I am playing in the physical dimension - a realm operating within time and space.

I like to think of myself as a newly initiated game-master. Expressing through the world of physical form. I am cultivating a greater awareness of the laws of physicality, whilst simultaneously being guided by the essence of divinity. In this awareness I am incredibly inspired by the knowledge and beauty within and all around me.

The Shift:

Realization of your true nature initiates a great shift in your awareness, which reverberates and ripples throughout many dimensions of experience. When this happens, the repercussions may be minimal. Bearing in mind though, when you shift something, there will be energetic repercussions.

It’s like removing a card from a house of cards. We can imagine the house as our perception of Self, with each card representing the many layers of experience that shape our perception. When one experiences a shift, there is a tendency to want to remove those cards imbued with unpleasant patterns, experiences and memories. If one goes in too quickly, this can be detrimental, causing the house of cards to come crashing down. With gentleness, patience, and an intuitive feel for the suble nature of the many layers of experience that shape life, one can make the shift with relative ease. But wait, did you notice something? While engaging in the visual idea of the house of cards, who was the master architect?

Within this game of life, I have found that I often become entangled in, identified with or overwhelmed by waves emotional intensity, which are always coloured by my perceptions. I have come to realize that I can fine-tune my receptive nature and “switch” my point of focus. Instead of being identified with the house of cards, I can masterfully and intententionally engage as a divine architect.

The objective is to see myself and others through the eyes of love, an observer, responding to others with care and consideration. As I make this switch in my mind, I become mindful of the layers of experience. Such as the fear which for a time had me trying to force issues. This illumines for me, the need to remain open to the many layers of long suppresed fear based emotion.
As the orchestrator, the architect, the divine witness I simply observe my feelings, watching the interplay and interacting from a point of inner wisdom. My sacred task is to honour the divine witness within myself and others. I now choose to meet myself where I am - in this moment. I choose to align my conscousness with my multidimensional self, and lovingly embrace all aspects of my being. My heart gift to myself is to remember always, that we are each simply choosing to play out aspects of who we are, within this grand, wondrous adventure we call life.

I wonder, dear hearts, are you too experiencing a great shift in your life? Perhaps you have something wonderful to share from your own point of inner wisdom. Sometimes our greatest challenges light the way for others who may be experiencing many of the those energies, densities and challenges that colour life.

Blessings upon the path, dear friends
