Newness and a Moon Mantra



The New Moon Solar Eclipse in Pisces energies are dancing through inner and outer happenings right now.

How it is showing up in your life is a divine reflection of the music you've got going on within; whether it's mellow, more staccato, tribal, folksy, funk, upbeat or it feels more like a track seemingly stuck on repeat. Whatever has been going on for you, now is an empowering time to tap into the new.

Are you liking what you are hearing in your inner world, loving the way you move in your life and what is moving towards you? Amplify more of that.

Not loving it so much? Thank it for showing you that.

And then check in with what you do want to feel within and in your wild precious life. You might feel to journal it out or write down your desires on a piece of paper and burn it (in a safe way), allowing the smoke to send the newness up into the ethers.

The newness you feel is real. 

In our energy based Universe, it all exists in vibrational form before we see it in our physical reality.

Here is a Moon Mantra for the now:

I allow the newness within my beingness
to birth through me and my life
with ease, happiness and harmony.

Feel into what you do want.
Flow with what feels good to you.

Your tune matters, no other being has the same vibrational frequency as you. It is always appreciated, heard, held, received and a deliberate part of our co-creative collective symphony with all life, including the animal kingdom, plant life, Mama Earth, every planet, the Sun, all the stars and every teeny tiny atom. xx

I'd love to hear from you. How are the energies showing up for you right now? Add your comments below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page.

Shine on, Jelena x

Luck or Laser-Beam Focus



When previously perceived impossible good things happen or are wanted, it often evokes statements like, “Aren’t you lucky!", “They must have had lady luck on their side" or "You'll need a lot of luck with that!".

What if you knew it's not a matter of luck but deliberate laser-beam-focus on what you want and being in alignment with that. When we get out of our own way long enough and go the flow of our divine stream, as we splash about, paddle, drift, float and let the current guide us through the waters of what feels good for our being... "Whooshka!", it can seem like luck just showed up with the very thing we were wanting, wishing, dreaming, desiring, hoping, praying or searching for.

But in order to be the receiver of what you hold in your heart and see in your wildest dreams, you know what has to really show up?

You.

This week be willing to go to the edges of what you think is possible for you to be, do or have.

No luck required. 

With deliberate laser-like focus see what you truly desire for yourself and your life, feel it, think about it, breathe it, believe it, know it… then let it go. That laser-beam you sent out has the details sorted. Allow yourself to receive the divine requests you're putting out there. Show up within yourself and stand up for the life you are here to create.

You are the crucial component.

You know what that means? 

You are the four leaf clover, you lucky earthing, you.

I'd love to hear from you. What does 'showing up for yourself' feel like to you? Add your comments below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page.

Shine on, Jelena x

Your Pulse is Connected



There beyond the felt-sense of anger, grief, hurt, judgement, pain and sadness... when you encounter these powerful emotions in your beingness on any level, love yourself enough to feel them. Feel your way through them to the other side. There is light, an enlightening expansion and a liberating exhale awaiting you at the end of such tunnels.

But, you got to ride those waves all the way to the shore. 

Otherwise, when you pause enough to notice, you will see they sure will, and do, find any which way to speak to you, to reach you, to get your conscious attention - via your body, mind, heart and spirit, via your energy, the goings on in your inner or outer worlds, or both.

If you think, 'The Universe doesn't listen to me', 'Why would the Universe notice me?', 'Why does it matter to the Universe which way I go?', oh it hears you, it notices you, it matters.

Because you are made up of the same stuff. 
The Universe is within you. 
There is nowhere you can go without being a part of it. 

Not even when you feel stuck, confused, blocked, bad, unseen, disconnected, alone, lonely or worthless. No matter how far you wish or want to run away, hide or think you can numb it gone. Though such states blur the clear communication you were born with that connects your pulse to the pulse of the Universe. Such states cause static in your innate connection; insights are missed or dismissed, messages are denied or doubted, synchronicity is brushed aside and happenings are misread or misunderstood.

How to clear your channels? Feel.

Feel into what you are resisting that is causing the blur in the first place. You don't have to plunge your whole self right into it. Even one step at a time counts. You can do it. You are here to live your life awake. Sure, it will ask you to pluck up courage like you've maybe never seen or felt before. On the flip side, it will open your heart, expand your inner happiness and deepen your freedom within like you've maybe never imagined possible.

Allowing yourself to become more aware of your authentic self, what you are really doing and how you are truly moving through life, well, it may birth miracles.

I'd love to hear from you. What helps you enter your heart and face your emotions? Add your comments below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page.

Shine on, Jelena x

What Seeks You

Creative Nudge Fridays is here!

We're opening our awareness to what is seeking us.

As we go about our daily happenings we know what we like, are drawn to, and gravitate toward. This flow is deeply recharging for our spirit. Yet it can also hinder our divine flow when we lock into what we know we are drawn to as being the only thing(s) we like!

In the wise words of Rumi, "What you seek is seeking you."

Here is a nudge to help you surrender to your divine flow and open to greater possibility.

Breathe in these words: What I seek is seeking me.

Then allow that which you seek, to seek you this weekend.

Be present to the now moment and see what is drawn into your life right now without you seeking it out.

To remind yourself that the things that truly wish to be found on your path always find a way to show up, take a pic of something which symbolises this energy. Then use the pic as your screen saver or wallpaper on your phone or computer.

If you give the nudge a go, comment below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page. If you share your nudge pics via Twitter or Instagram use the tag #creativenudgefridays so we can find you.

Venus and a Crescent Moon



The view from here. Venus and a waxing crescent Moon in Sagittarius. It's a brilliant time to allow a greater sense of lightness to enter your heart (especially if it is feeling otherwise).

Here is a Moon Mantra to help you do just that:

I breathe life in with light, 
filling my heart with love. 
I breathe it all out with love, 
filling my being with light

Meditate on this mantra, or use it as a positive affirmation by repeating it quietly within or aloud. To extend on its message, write it down in your journal and say it to yourself - tune in to how it feels within your body and note it down. Express it out in whatever way feels good to you.

I'd love to hear from you. What helps you feel a greater sense of lightness in your heart? Add your comments below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page.

Shine on, Jelena x

Sacred Hearth



30 September to 6 October 2013; 'Sacred Hearth', an intuited sketch from my soul with a message for the week ahead.

A golden hearth built of ancient stardust holds sacred your inner fire that sparked (from your higher spark) when you birthed into the world. 

It burns bright, fuelled by oxygen and love. It is soul sustenance, spirit warming and no matter where you are, it goes with you.

No matter whether you are conscious of it or not, it burns on.

And, you are the keeper of the fire.

What you fuel your inner fire with, is what fuels you and the home of your beingness.

Imagine you have an actual hearth in your physical home (perhaps you actually do). Imagine this hearth warms your heart. Its flames soothe your mind and its radiant light is like calming balm for your emotions. Its gentle crackle relaxes your muscles and its familiar scent wafts away any tension. When needed it allows you to release a healing sweat from your pores, cleansing your whole self. Remembering that which you fuel the fire with is that which fuels you, how would you choose to fuel this fire? With natural and safe fuels or hazardous materials?

So, how do you choose to fuel your inner fire? With mindful or toxic fuels? With love or resentment? Gratitude or blame? Inspiration or mediocrity? Flow or stuckness? Trust or doubt? Faith or false control? As the keeper of the fire, you get to choose each day.

This week, tune in to the state of your sacred hearth. 

Is there a flicker of a flame or is your inner fire burning ablaze? Is it welcoming and warming? What might it need from you to be even more welcoming and warming? Notice how you fuel your inner fire, and how it fuels you.

Your inner fire is a transformational shapeshifter. If at any moment you choose to change how you fuel your inner fire, it will change how it fuels you and your world.

I'd love to hear from you. How do you fuel your inner fire? Add your comments below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page.

Shine on, Jelena x

Reach Toward Possibility



Creative Nudge Fridays is here!

We're reaching further.

Our ability to expand into our highest possibilities is in direct relationship with how far we think we can extend ourselves. As Henry Ford said, "If you think you can or think you can't, you're right". These words always remind me of a stretching exercise I learnt many moons ago.

1. Stand with your feet firmly on the ground. Lift one arm up straight in front of you (at a right angle to your body) with your index finger pointing ahead (like you are pointing to the horizon). Without moving your feet, gently swing your arm around as far as it can go - allow your head and upper body to follow in a twist-like motion. Stretch yourself as far as you can go (without any harm to yourself of course). Go as far as you are sure is your furthest possible point - take note of the *exact* spot your index finger is pointing to (you'll be referring back to it). And relax, bring yourself back to centre. *You can also do this while sitting on the floor, as long as there is space behind you to extend out your arm.

2. Next, do the exercise (still standing or sitting in the same place), but this time close your eyes and only imagine it. In your mind's eye imagine you are ultra flexible like rubber and can turn your upper body around full circle, then back again. See yourself being able to do this with ease. Imagine the full-circle twist a couple of times to really get a sense that this is completely possible.

3. Open your eyes and repeat step 1. Do the exercise with your eyes open (again, still standing or sitting in the same place). Now note the *exact* spot where your finger is pointing to this time around.

Notice a difference?

Initially we go as far as we think is our limit. We are sure we can not possibly go any further. But when we stretch ourselves into the possibility that we can go even further… we do.

To remind yourself that if you think you can, you can, take a pic of something that represents the word 'possibility' to you. Then use the pic as your screen saver or wallpaper on your phone or computer.

If you give the nudge a go, comment below or be a part of the conversation on my Facebook Page. If you share your nudge pics via Twitter or Instagram use the tag #creativenudgefridays so we can find you.

Create on, Jelena x

p.s. Get ready to expand into more of you who are! My NEW ecourse A Return to Self starts November 1. Stay tuned for details.
