she let go

Desiree Dolron

This beautiful piece of writing has helped me immensely today. For all of those who are facing difficult opposition and resistance in these changes times, particularly in this dark moon - thank you Melody for sharing...

‎"She let go. Without a thought or a word, she let go. She let go of the fear. She let go of the judgments. She let go of the confluence of opinions swarming around her head. She let go of the committee of indecision within her. She let go of all the ‘right’ reasons. Wholly and completely, without hesitation or worry, she just let go. 
     She didn’t ask anyone for advice. She didn’t read a book on how to let go. She didn’t search the scriptures. She just let go. She let go of all of the memories that held her back. She let go of all of the anxiety that kept her from moving forward. She let go of the planning and all of the calculations about how to do it just right. She didn’t promise to let go. She didn’t journal about it. She didn’t write the projected date in her Day-Timer. She made no public announcement and put no ad in the paper. She didn’t check the weather report or read her daily horoscope. She just let go. 
     She didn’t analyze whether she should let go. She didn’t call her friends to discuss the matter. She didn’t do a five-step Spiritual Mind Treatment. She didn’t call the prayer line. She didn’t utter one word. She just let go. No one was around when it happened. There was no applause or congratulations. No one thanked her or praised her. No one noticed a thing. Like a leaf falling from a tree, she just let go. There was no effort. There was no struggle. It wasn’t good and it wasn’t bad. It was what it was, and it is just that. In the space of letting go, she let it all be. 
     A small smile came over her face. A light breeze blew through her. And the sun and the moon shone forevermore." Ernest Holmes

Koala Love!

Tony and his new sponsored 'son', Becker
Meet our new 'children'! On Saturday Tony and I delivered the proceeds of the Spring Equinox Circle to the wonderful Colleen Wood and the koalas she rescues at the Southern Ash Wildlife Shelter in Rawson, Gippsland. We feel so honoured to have been invited into Colleen's world as the shelter is not open to visitors to ensure that the koalas heal and retain their wild instincts so that Colleen and her volunteers can safely return them to the wild as soon as they are fit.  On this visit we had the extra special treat of going into the 'joey rumpus room'!! There were about 4 orphaned joey (baby) koalas and as you can see from the photos, they were totally adorable - in fact so gorgeous they looked like toy teddy bears hanging in the trees!

Tony is seen here holding Becker a young joey of about 8 months who was found alone on a highway with scratches on his nose, presumed orphaned after his mother had been hit by a car. We also got to visit Cindy again who looked so much bigger and healthier than when we'd seen her 6 months ago that I didn't recognise her - what a compliment for Colleen's hard work. Cindy had a moment with me when she looked very deeply into my eyes and I heard the message: 'Don't forget us'. Our beautiful koalas are really under threat from so many human diseases and the encroachment of housing estates into their ancient trackways and habitats.

So how do we do our small bit so we 'don't forget'? The Southern Ash Wildlife Shelter really do the most incredible work and Colleen Wood is an expert in koala care - the shelter has just released an exciting new program to sponsor your own koala and Tony and I are the proud new sponsors or Becker and Cindy. If you'd like to become a sponsor it's very easy and only costs $40 a year - a little bit of money that will go a long way to help, and what a great Christmas gift! To sponsor your very own koala, please go to: www.samthekoala.com.au or pop in and have a chat on their Facebook page.

One Soul, Many Lives

'The Chequerboard' by Monica Fagan
Once thought of as mysterious, Past Life Regression has now been embraced by counsellors and therapists as a tool to heal and assist clients on the Soul's journey towards awakening and self-empowerment. By exploring Past Lives, we can bring profound healing and understanding to our current life situation, behaviours and relationships.
Once a year I hold a Past Life Weekend Intensive and this year we will be holding this workshop on the potent weekend of the Ancient Earth Festival of Beltane - a festival dedicated to celebrating Rebirth, Creativity and Life on Saturday & Sunday 29-30th October. Guided by the Celtic Star Goddess Arianrhod, Goddess of the Silver Wheel, the focus on this weekend will be Embracing Creativity and Love. 
On Saturday we will experience and heal Soul Memories of Past Lives that may be holding us back from expressing our Creative Gifts or finding and sharing Love for ourselves and others in this lifetime and on Sunday the focus will be on exploring lifetimes of great Joy and Soul Connection and embodying these innate and sleeping gifts again in our current lives now. 
Many of our clients are experiencing powerful shifts and healing through Past Life Regression at the moment and I feel this is due to the energy of the Changing Times we are experiencing. This energy is facilitating a sense of release, freedom and of shackles of the past being removed. I welcome you to step upon this  journey of healing, growth and exciting potential in a small, warm and friendly group of like-minded souls at the Spring festival of Life: Beltane.
I have a temple I do not visit
A heart I have forgot
A self that I have never met
A secret shrine.

New Forest Well Essence - Building Sacred Fire

Hello and welcome to the new members of our tribe,

I hope that you gained some inspiring new insights over the very potent Full Moon in Aries over the last 2 days. On this Full Fire Moon I created a new essence dedicated to creating Transfomation and to help us to connect to our own Sacred Fire. Dedicated to the Goddess Artemis, the intention of this blend is facilitate transformation and growth as we connect to confidence in our own unique abilities and gifts. The Artemis Blend will work specifically with the Solar Plexus and Third Eye Chakras and is created with love with pure natural spring water collected from the Wombat Forest and pure plant essences. 


After the Golden Temple and Full Moon circles of the last 2 days, I have just 6 bottles of this first batch of the Artemis Blend left. If you feel called to step into a course of transformation I recommend taking 7 drops of this blend under the tongue morning and night for 2 weeks (3 drops for a slower shift if you feel like taking a slower step into change).   The Artemis Blend essence is $15 (plus p&h), $10 if booked with a reading or healing consultation or $25 if purchased with an Energy Protector blend to create Sacred Space and Grounding. 

Warm Wishes for a bright new Journey,

Julia

Deepening the Connection - New Classes and Workshops

,
I welcome you my sisters to join me as we celebrate music, mythology, symbology and reawaken our Wise Woman gifts in warm and friendly circles dedicated to remembering the Ancient Worlds of our Ancestral Memory. As we rediscover our deep bond with Mother Nature we naturally develop our forgotten gifts of prophecy, creativity and healing. Join me as we celebrate the Moon Mysteries of Mother Nature in all of her wild and abundant beauty. 
Join us in the music, transform in the sound.

As we journey on our Immramma (Irish for 'Wonder Voyage') we will enter a realm of mystery, magic and healing. On these journeys we will encounter the Wise Teachers, Healers and Guardians that all reside within us. We already know these helpful energies intuitively as you will discover as we reclaim our Ancient Ancestral Wisdom and Mythic Story.
Who will step forward to guide you along these ancient pathways? In this 6 week course of Journeying and Oracle Reading you will gently bring your focus to your new companions, begin to trust your Intuition and learn to have faith in the messages your receive from the natural world around you, to your animal messengers and plant guardians. 

When we connect to the Wise Healer Within, like the wise Shaman, we begin to understand the patterns and signs of the daily Oracle of our lives. In these warm and relaxed circles you will widen your own circles of friendship and develop your own daily shamanic practice of finding and keeping Sacred Space so you can remember your beautiful and ancient relationship with Mother Earth. By journeying with the music we connect to the elements through sacred smudging and water blessing, forming deep bonds with our Spirit Guides and Animal Totems. After each journey we will explore further learning with various oracle systems to helps to understand and heal from the messages and symbols we receive for ourselves and for others.
