“Don’t put a newly cooked rice at the top of your spoiled one.”

Or else, you are shall be eating spoiled food. The next step in preparing ourselves for a new action is to release any spoiled parts of ourselves. If you haven’t read Step One, please read first the first step at this link:

STEP ONE: SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

Many people jump into visioning and making plans and actions without releasing first what can block along the way. After we have sat down and sought God within us, the next step is to heal ourselves to release anything thought and emotions that can block us along the way. Unhealed emotions and negative thoughts comprise our vibrations and vibrations are necessary for manifestation.

How can these blocks affect us?

Any actions come from emotions and thoughts. Therefore, unwanted and unhealthy thoughts and actions can lead us into 1) repeating the same patterns of actions and results that lead us to stagnant progress and 2) pessimism and fear that can freeze our actions for progress in life.

Failure to address these blocks, in the long run, can lead us into the following:

 

1. Regression or retardation of spiritual growth
2. Unrest of mind and confusion
3. Inability to connect to ones’ Higher Self or Mind
4. Attracting negative people or experiences.
5. Confusion about life and events
6. Addiction to past experiences.
7. Self-destruction
8. Hopelessness

 

To address the block and move smoothly in life, we may do the following actions:

 

Action 1: Check on your chakras through the following questions: (For those who do not know chakras, chakras also called energy centers contain our thoughts and emotions.)

                   Go into a meditative state. Start with a prayer. Then ask the following questions while putting your hands on each chakra. Be mindful of your intuitive answer. If you are a Reiki practitioner, then you can invoke Reiki on this exercise or invoke the angels for each chakra.

CHAKRAS	HAND POSITIONS	QUERY	BLOCKS
Base Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower back at the end of the spinal column.	a)  Do I feel alone in life?       b)      Do I feel that life is so hard?       c)      Do I feel unsupported?	Feeling Unsupported by the Cosmos
Sacral Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower part of the stomach.	a)      Do I always feel a lack of resources or money?      b)      Do I feel unsatisfied with my job?      c)      Do I always blame myself?	Feeling of Lack Feeling of guilt or blame for current situation
Solar Plexus	Put your hands on the upper part of the stomach.	a)      Do I take care of myself?      b)      Do I feel angry about life events?      c)      Do I feel powerless?	Powerlessness
Heart Center	Put your hands on the center of your heart.	a)      Do I feel loved?      b)      Am I ready to love?      c)      Am I willing to receive?	Hate, Unforgiveness
Throat Center	Put your hands on your throat	a)      Do I follow my dreams?      b)      Can I speak for myself?	Procrastination
Forehead Center	Put your hands on your forehead	b)      Am I confused about life?	Narrowmindedness
Crown Center	Put your hands on your crown	a)      Do I call God to guide me in my life?      b)      Do I have deep faith and trust in God?	Separation from God

 

Action 2:  After your reflection, then we now start to let go with healing and affirmations. (Note that recognition and acceptance of what blocks us start the healing process. So, many lightworkers hesitate to look and examine their past for fear of being stuck on it. This is a wrong interpretation. We all can live in the present and move to the future when we revisit the past with acceptance and forgiveness. There is a pre-requisite to saying “Forget the past and move on. The important requirement is that one has already been friends with the past so that they can close or forget peacefully.)

 

1. Put your hands in the praying position and say,  "Through the Power of my God‐Mind, I release past negativity and release my mind – God-directed – into a positive future."
2. Say the affirmation, doing the hand positions in each chakra. Feel the energy of the affirmations.

 

          Go into a meditative state. Start with a prayer. Then ask the following questions while putting your hands on each chakra. Be mindful of your intuitive answer. If you are a Reiki practitioner, then you can invoke Reiki on this exercise or invoke the angels for each chakra.

  

CHAKRAS	HAND POSITIONS	AFFIRMATIONS
Base Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower back at the end of the spinal column.	I am One with the support of the Universe.
Sacral Energy Center	Put your hands on the lower part of the stomach.	I am One with prosperity and material wealth – immediately, now, and eternally.
Solar Plexus	Put your hands on the upper part of the stomach.	I am One with the power of the Divine who is within me.
Heart Center	Put your hands on the center of your heart.	I am One with a perfect love in all of my relationships immediately, now, and eternally
Throat Center	Put your hands on your throat.	I am One with my chosen path  – immediately, now, and eternally.
Forehead Center	Put your hands on your forehead	I am One with the mind of God.
Crown Center	Put your hands on your crown	I am one with God.

 

 Action 3:  End with gratitude. Gratitude can take into many forms. It can be a prayer, a song, or an offering.

 

Now you are ready for the last action which is empowering the vision and action.

 

Hold on for the Step 3:

 

Blessings,

START THE NEW YEAR – STEP ONE: SEEK FIRST THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN

“ But seek ye first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto you.” – Mather 6:33

 

The above verse is my inspiration and my guide. 

 

The new year always comes to everyone as a new beginning. To everyone, it is the time to plan, a time to visualize, a time to affirm, and a time to execute. However, let us not rush. It is good to see the alignment of our mind to our spirit. The holiday season prepares us for this connection. Let us see the season deeply. 

 

It is desgined that the Christmas Season ends with the observance of Epiphany. After celebrating the Light of Christ, we are being led to seek the light within as our Guide for the New Year. This is the symbolic meaning of the three kings who allowed themselves to be guided by the bright star. 

 

Esoterically, the three kings symbolized the “body”, “mind”, and “spirit”. Their going back home after finding the Baby Jesus is like our going back home to our mundane life. This time with the Christ Light.

 

I invite you first to spend a time of prayer and reflection before anything else. You may have a retreat or just 2-3 hours with God. 

 

1. Sit in meditation. If you are a Reiki Practitioner, do the Gassho Meditation. Spend a minimum of 30 minutes feeling the presence of God. Feel God through your breath or just be in silence.
2. Read a spiritual text either the Holy Scripture, Bhagavad Gita, or other books that you resonate with. Allow yourself to be led to an inspirational message.
3. Talk to God. You may ask questions. Allow yourself to receive an answer if not at the moment but in the coming days
4. When you feel the great presence of God in your activity – start to look back on the past year. See your experience through God’s lens.
5. End with gratitude. Be creative. Write, draw, or make a collage.
6. Just a note. You may divide your time for steps 1-5.

God’s inspiration will lead us into illumination and unto the next step which is healing and releasing, my next block.

Love and Light,

Starting Our Year With A New Space Energy

Our year promises  a new start if we begin wth a new space energy in our home. The wise and spiritual way to do this is to do a space blessing or space clearing in our own space such as home, office, working area, etc.  Like the physical cleaning ,  space clearing is also done regularly.  While the physical cleaning is aimed at removing dirt and trash, space clearing is aimed at clearing the unwanted energies on the etheric plane of our space.

                Though we can’t see it, unwanted energies are felt by us.  Uneasy feeling in a room or space that used to be our haven for rest is one of the signs of the accumulation of these unwanted energies.  Others can be a feeling of an unseen beings,  eerie presence, frequent illness in the house, continuous nightmares, and unexplainable moodiness of babies.

                Where do these unwanted energies come from? First, unwanted energies can come from strong emotions and thought forms.  These may come from the people living or working on the space or people who come to visit. All strong emotions and thoughts like anger, fear, terror, disturbance, or sadness are imprinted on the space of activity. All the happenings in our space be it positive or negative all have imprints in our space.

                There are specific occasions when a space clearing is urgently needed.  These are the following:

1.  The place feels haunted

2.  When divorce or separation, death, disputes, calamity, or abuse have  occurred

3.  After a large gathering

4.  Unusual fear or anger or feeling tired and depressed since moving in

5.  Behavioral changes on pets and babies

6.  Actual sightings of departed ones

7.  Real estate that is not earning or couldn’t be sold

                There are also specific places that really need the urgent or regular space clearing:

1.  Homes or Spaces near cemetery and hospitals

2.  Historical homes

3.  Rental property

4.  Newly acquired property with used furniture

5.  Spaces decorated with antiques

6.  Spaces vacant for a long time

                Space clearing can be simple or complex.  All simple space clearing can be performed by anybody, while complex space clearing should be done with the help of a priest, an energy or spiritual healer. The complexities are based on the characteristics of the place or situation that need urgent attention.

For simple space clearing, one can do the following:

1.  Choose an area of the house where you feel centered,

2.  Light a candle and burn incense.

3.  Say a prayer to call the Divine Being to be with your protection and help on space clearing,

3.  Visualize a Divine Light shining on your crown. Then moving through your body down to the soles of your feet,

4.  Feel this Divine energy expanding and moving into each area of the house or space.  Ask Divine help for this visualization process. One can feel if the energizing of the place is already finished.

5.  Thank the Divine Being(s) for the blessing and assistance.

                Another way, is to throw salt in every area as one visualizes and goes around the space. If one is an angel  or a reiki healer, one can can use the same energies in space clearing. One can go around the house healing every space, just as is done when healing a person.

                A space clearing should not be boring, one can be creative like incorportating songs, chants, poems, prayers and movements during the ritual.  One can invitie a ceremonialist to help on this creative and energy work.

                Let us now start doing this is in our space and one can feel the difference.  Should there be a complexity of the space to be cleared, ask for assistance. One can ask assitance from reiki groups, angel ligthworkers, and earth intuitive workers.  

Lights and Blessings for the New Year
