SHARE THE VOICE

“This one was written after I had camped out for a few days in Moab. As I kayaked down the Green River in the deep canyons, a voice came out of me telling the stone canyon walls the entire history of earth with all her wars and sorrows. It was promised that the ancient voice would return to tell the earth we are now ready to move forward into awareness.” ~~Drusant 2009

Share the voice.
The voice has been spoken after these many thousands of years.
I am the stone pillar with a voice and I ask you now to spread the word
From one pillar to the next,
From one canyon to the next and into one country into the next.

Let it be known that today
The ancient voice has been spoken.

You have stood, sentinel, all these many years,
Waiting and longing, wondering if your purpose has been forgotten.

Walking people come and go
Taking your picture not knowing who you are.
They stand beside your megaliths with empty pride and empty minds.
And yet they want your memory for their treasure map.

Your silent voice now shouts to be heard
And I am here to say you have been heard…. and recognized.

For I am in you and you are in me.

We share the common bond of silence
And the longing of those magnificent years
When all wisdom, all knowledge was shared.

When the dark days came
And your treasures were locked up inside stone pictures,
Carved by tearful hands that knew someday these marks will be remembered,
We knew, you and I, that many winters, many seasons would pass
Before it was safe to reunite again.

You stood through countless days, alone, with no one to touch you.
You could sense your distant brothers and sisters that were also carved with tearful hands
On many continents and many cultures,
And on the many islands that came and went when some were lost forever.

I could feel your fear
That I would never return to embrace your courage,
But I am here…. now.

Share the voice for now it has been spoken.
Your instincts know the language
And your vision knows our cause.

DON’T MISS THE BOAT…OR, HOW TO CREATE POSITIVE CHANGES IN YOUR LIFE

© 2014 - Reprinted with permission from Shining Lotus Metaphysical Bookstore newsletter December 2014

by Mario C. Veo

There are many – and even effective – techniques for creating Positive Changes – you can visualize… pray… chant Mantras… do rituals… engage in Shamanic Ceremonies… talk to your Angel or Spirit Guides… have a ‘professional’ do it for you… they will all work, provided you have taken care of a simple little thing called ‘Clearing’.

You see, every day you only have so much energy, and it is up to you to use it and direct it – so, if you are busy contemplating your Life challenges, worries, lack, poverty… then YOU are now directing your own Life Energy to flow in this direction! (and you have just become the very problem you are trying to resolve).
But this is nothing new – you’ve known this concept of the ‘Self-fulfilling Prophecy’ for a long time… so, why are you still struggling to find Love, Happiness, Wealth, Prosperity, Peace…!? That one is easy to answer (even if some of you will not believe me) – You have to make space in your Life for what you desire… meaning, as everything IS ‘Energy’ – which has Quality AND Purpose – then, if you spend time worrying about a problem, all you will create is an Energy Matrix which can only hold the problem and not its solution… if you are so invested in a diminishing Life, how can you embrace Positive Changes – your very Identity will deny it!

O.K., don’t look so glum – there is a solution, here it is – no matter the technique for Manifestation, you must first “cleanse and release your past wounds or offenses”… and here is where most of you will shout, “But I have already done that… and I am still struggling… so surely this is not it!”
Ah, but that’s where you haven’t been taught the full story…
The French put it very clearly – “The more it changes – the more it stays the same” (No, it’s not one more weird French puzzle… like, ‘why do they like cheese so much?) The Key is actually quite simple – The more you Grow, the more refined you become, the more you have to go back and clean up your Past.
Sounds weird, right… well, consider this – here you are, fresh out of school and newly ‘in love’… and, wouldn’t you know it, you get dumped for a newer model. Broken-hearted you rally on, pull yourself together, and bravely find your next target…(ah, the joy of youth…).
Now, years later, you wonder how come you’re not married to a wonderful ‘Soul-Mate’ – you’ve done all that has been suggested to you – journaled, vision-board, smudged, wrote to the Goddess… heck, you’ve even danced ‘Sky-Clad” under a full moon, all to no avail. And yes, you have cleansed yourself of your past heart-breaks… (or so you think…).

The very act of ‘cleansing’ yourself has shifted your Vibrational Rate, making you more sensitive, more ‘pure’ – thus, what was sufficient before now needs to be redone to match your new found Refinement… AND, you will keep doing this until, finally, there truly is nothing more to cleanse/release.
So let me be clear – until you have finally released all limiting Vibrations, you simply have not created the right ‘Space’ for your New Life… (and for those of you who are still bitching about this being ‘nonsense, or too much work, or unnecessary’… I will simply ask you, “What are you worth… and why so much resistance to the solution to finally achieving all your Heart’s Desires… ummm. someone has more work to do…)
I am dedicating this month to creating Positive Changes – wonderful, joyful, blow-your-socks-off-changes… after all, I am not only worth it, but I’ll take that with two dollops of extra whipped cream…!!
