PASCO COUNTY FORMS UNIFIED COMMUNITY GROUP

ZEPHYRHILLS, FL, NOVEMBER 12, 2010:  A Light worker Community Base is forming in the Pasco area.  According to one of the founding organizers, Debra Canero (owner of Spiritual Connection in Zephyrhills, FL), this is a group of ordinary people coming together in a unified and cohesive nature to create a mission of harmony, love, and support for one another in the community.

Dr. Carla Goddard, visionary of the group, “We, as humans, approach the world around us as being a form of duality. This perception causes us to judge others on their journeys for not fitting into our own perceptions of reality. We struggle in an internal tug of war with this duality which results in projecting a tumultuous energy being projected into the world around us.

“In truth, we are all extensions of one another.  This community base is being created and birthed to integrate all perceptions without automatically perceiving an opposite.  Each member of the community brings with them a gift to share.  Each member of the community has something to teach and something they can learn.  It is together as a united community that we create the changes.  This unity will come from a wholeness of each merging into a wholeness of all through love, honor, and respect.”

The mission is simple: to unite to form a base of nurturing support in all areas for all people in all of life.  Organizers say, as a global humanity we are facing challenges in every region and every facet of life.  The Mother Earth is demanding our attention; individuals are hurting and facing economic challenges, and spiritual evolution is evolving.  Each of us face these trials and pebbles in varying ways, yet, each requiring the same basic elements, support, nurturing, and love

The ‘mantra’ of the group seems to be alone we are separated.  Together we are unified.  As Dr. Goddard stated, “they are just ordinary people creating an extraordinary community”.  If you are interested in finding out further information regarding this unique group in Pasco County, Florida, contact Dr. Carla Goddard at dr.carla.goddard@verizon.net.

A Unity of Light Workers Create a Community To Change The World

Never doubt that a small, group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world. Indeed, it is the only thing that ever has.
Margaret Mead

As we begin this creation of a Light worker Community Base in the Pasco area, I am reminded of the quote made by Margaret Mead about a small group of citizens changing the world.   A Community can change the world making the impossible possible.  

Many of the emails and people I have personally spoken with in the past days have been from various spiritual paths.  It is an amazing gift to have Tibetan Buddhists, Shamans, Metaphysical Paths, Christians, and Pagans coming together in an unified and cohesive nature to create a mission of harmony, love, and support for one another.  I am truly blessed and humbled by the experience.  

I want to take a moment to talk about the purpose of the Light worker community base.  Some are asking in email what the purpose is?  What is the focus? 

We, as humans, approach the world around us as being a form of duality. This perception causes us to judge others on their journeys for not fitting into our own perceptions of reality. We struggle in an internal tug of war with this duality which results in projecting a tumultuous energy being projected into the world around us.

In truth, we are all extensions of one another.  As this community base is created, it is vital to remember to integrate all perceptions without automatically perceiving an opposite.  With the energetic shifts and creation of a living vortex, the energies within not only the geography of our lands, but just as vitally important, the energy within ourselves shift.

Each member of the community brings with them a gift to share.  Each member of the community has something to teach and something they can learn.  It is together as a united community that we create the changes.  This unity will come from a wholeness of each merging into a wholeness of all through love, honor, and respect.

The mission is simple: to unite to form a base of nurturing support in all areas for all people in all of life.  It may sound broad.  It is.  As a global humanity we are facing challenges in every region and every facet of life.  The Mother Earth is demanding our attention, individuals hurting and facing economic challenges, and spiritual evolution questions and trials.  We each face these trials and pebbles in varying ways, yet, each requiring the same basic elements.  Support, nurturing, and love.  I have heard from many that they feel like the lone warrior still doing battle with no other lights in sight.  Yet others sharing how they long to even see the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. 

Alone we are separated.  Together we are unified.  Each one of you must remind yourself daily that you are a beacon of light for those lost in darkness.  You are a Spiritual leader helping those who cannot find the path.  Your own light – your own fire – must be illuminated brightly.  The flames of your internal fire must emblaze with eternal love and offer warmth for those who are cold.  Together, we are unified as one.

Regardless of what spiritual path you walk, regardless of what your knowledge and wisdom may be, this is your time.  This is our time.  Time to rise up and light the way. Time to take responsibility for helping the Earth, helping the community, and helping one another.  You do not have to wait for the first gathering – Start NOW.  Reach out to the Earth and hear her speak.  Reach out to your community – who is in need?  Reach out to another person today, offer your help, offer to listen, or simply offer a loving smile. 

Share this with your friends, share it with your Rabbi’s, your minister’s, your priests.  Don’t just share the words, share the energy through your actions.  Share through you fire within.  Share through your love.  We are all part of the community base that will change the world.

Hear me, four quarters of the world - a relative I am! Give me the strength to walk the soft earth, a relative to all that is! Give me the eyes to see and the strength to understand, that I may be like you. With your power only can I face the winds.

Sacred Fire Invocation

Every feeling, every emotion, every thought that you have is sent into the Universe which creates the discordant feelings that you generate yourself.  They draw in the discordant energies of the Universe like a magnet.  This energy can result in your feeling heavy, depressed, fustrated or discouraged.

When a person invokes the Sacred Fires to purify and transmute this energy the dark, heavy substance of the energy is shaken loose from your pure Divine energy of love.  The vibration of this shaking loose of energy is engulfed by the fire consciously.  The Sacred Fires consume it just as fire consume a piece of wood and shifts the energetic makeup of the energy.  As it is returned to you in this different state you not only shift the energy but create a release automatically of the destructive vibrations of the past.  This leaves the person feeling lighter, empowered, and filled with an overwhelming love emotion.

The ability to not only shift the energy one holds but to also release allows for the person to "empty their chalice in order to be refilled", by invoking the Sacred Fire daily it is a constant process of discharge and refilling.

The difference in invoking the Sacred Fire as compared to other methods is that you are consciously transmuting energy into a light which leaves a completely pure energy.  You are not simply clearing discordant energy.  It uses not only the magnetic energy of clearing but invokes the dynamic energy which places the spiritual vibration into a natura rhythm of the Divine Life Energy.  However, at this higher spiritual level if it is not done on a consistent daily basis, the Flames will return or ascend directly back to the Source and will cease to be in this natural flow.  In order to sustain the Sacred Fire flame in the physical word is done through the sustained application.  Most do not sustain it.  Most will invoke it to blaze for specific moments and they allow it flutter out.  A Sacred Fire must be nurtured daily else it will extinguish.

When nutured it will externalize the physical body as a radiating flame that will elimanate all fear, doubt and discouragement allowing a sense of being home in this physical realm.

Light Workers of Pasco County Area

Over the past few months, I have been asked repeatedly about beginning a group in the Pasco Area.  I was again approached after the lecture last evening and by email this morning about facilitating / hosting a community base focus group / Lightworkers Meeting for Pasco County/Zephyrhills Area.  

It is exciting to see the passion and fire in so many that has been ignited and awoken in this area.  WOW!  What an incredible gift it is to see so many lights radiating from those around my quaint little home base.  Simply Divine-alicious!!!  

I am honored and so humbled that I am being looked to as the beginning stages of  this creation of what will become a movement of light in the Pasco area.  I thank you for your faith and trust.   The creation of this new life and the birth will come directly from each one of you.  Your fires and your lights will be the inertia that carries this new creation through the birthing process and into being. 

This is an exciting time for each of us with endless possibilities.  I know at times there may seem like there are more questions than answers.  There are more visions and dreams then there are explanations.  This is the purpose of having a community base.  The true purpose of coming together as leaders, teachers, healers, and workers.  to share, learn, and support one another during these exciting times.  

The multiple spiritual paths that have already come together (from Wicca and Pagan to Buddhist to Christian to Metaphysical) is an amazing aspect of the creation.  To have those from different paths all come together to celebrate one Source, one Direction, and one Purpose in a harmonic and unified way is a precious gift we have been granted.  Think about it, look around the world today and honestly ask yourself where you see the spiritual paths of many conjoining into one brilliant fiery light to be a beacon for others?  

In the next few weeks we will have a date, time and location of where the base group will gather to nurture and fuel the creation of this new and exciting birth.  I know many that this is being emailed to have already expressed a strong desire to be a part; however, I asking that you please email me at shamancarla@verizon.net  your email and telephone number so that I can gather names in one location.  Please share this with others that may wish to be involved.  Know that the possibilities are limitless - the more light carriers the brighter the path will be.  If we have to move to a different location to met - WOW to have such a situation arise - grins.

Feel free to tag others that you may know who are interested in being a part of this beacon of light for the community.  Questions, comments and even just support - please feel free to email me or message me.  

All my love, mwah

The Earth, The Elements, and The Sacred Self

(Source of picture unknown)

Today, as I prepare for Shaman Hawk's arrival and the many lectures and workshops of the week that I will be blessed to be a part of, it struck me during my morning fire the connection between all of life.  At its very core, Shaman healing is about connecting the sacredness of nature and self to unite them as one.  Nature is within us.  The elements are within us.  Just as we are within nature and the elements.

As we are affected by nature (the seasons, the weather, the beauty, and the destruction) so is nature affected by us.  It is easy to forget that every step, every breath we take has an impact upon the Mother Earth.  It is easy to forget how our actions of everyday life make a profound imprint upon nature.

When Mother Earth shows her Sacredness in a beautiful day, we may pause to say what a glorious sunset.  When Mother Earth shows her Sacredness in a devasting hurricane, we may pause to say what a powerful storm.  How often on a daily basis to we pause to see the reflection of nature in ourselves?  Or see the lesson that Mother Earth is showing us?  How often do we pause to listen to the wind or feel the rain upon our skin?

The elements of fire, water, earth, air and spirit are all within our Sacredness.  We often tend to the spiritual elements.  But what lessons are we hearing from the flames of fire?  We all wish to have the passion and eternal love of the flames, but when is the last time we paused to listen to lessons from the flames of the fire?  We all wish for the fluid flow of water, the cleansing and purifying nature of the element, but when is the last time we paused to listen to the lessons of the waves?  Watched the ripple of a pebble in a still puddle to understand the lesson that siple act is sharing with us?  When was  the last time we paused to realize the sacredness of a cleansing shower?  What of air?  The air we breath.  The breeze we enjoy.  What lessons are held within the air we breath or the breeze we enjoy?

I often spend time walking the wheel to reflect upon the interrelated nature of the elements and creatures of the Earth.  As is my tradition though, I take the month of November to spend and focus my time upon gratitude.  The gratitude of those in my life that have had a profound impact over the past year.  For me, this year is different.

It is important to reflect and feel the gratitude of the fire, its warmth and love.  The gratitude of water, its cleansing and purifying nature.  The gratitude of Mother Earth, her loving energy and gentle lessons.  The gratitude of air, its life giving oxygen and energy.  The gratitude of spirit, the Divine nature of Source and all the blessings of my life.

Pause today and look about your life, reflect upon all things, nature, Mother Earth, and the Divine spiritual Source beneath it all.  Then take a moment to share your gratitude and honor all that is you.

Sacred Self Massage

(Picture from Romantic Souls Sanctuary)

Morning time is a Sacred time to connect with the Divine Source. As stillness gives way to rays of Light. Take a few moments each moment to recognize your Sacred Self.  Each morning we set the tone for the day.  We set the foundation with our thoughts and feelings.  When you take a few moments in the morning to recognize the sacredness of the day, your own sacredness, the tone is set for a wondrous day.

A quick morning exercise is to give yourself a morning massage before you shower.  Take a warming oil and begin with your head.  Slowly rub the oil into your temples, ears, and face.  As you do so, thank the Divine Source for your physical senses.  Thank the Divine for your mind.  Work your way down your neck and shoulders.  As you rub the oil in be sure to caress not grind into your muscles.  This is relaxing massage to begin your day.

Massage into your arms and hands down through your chest and rib cage.  Inhale deeply and feel the life force energy flow into you.  Thank the Divine for the love in your heart and the fire in your belly as you make your way into the belly area.  Thank Sacred self for the temple that your body is.  For caring for your soul.

Move into your bottom and your legs.  Take the moments to feel and appreciate the physical foundation of your body. When you reach your feet, be sure to take the moments to appreciate that they have carried you for so long.  

If there is any place that you still feel tension in your body, re direct your attention there and massage the area.  Focus your attention on that spot and bless your body for giving you awareness.

This simple exercise is a small way to show your gratefulness to your Sacred self and the Sacredness that your life is.
