An anchor of Hope

The mid-year point is moving near

2010 - a year we will remember

A lot unfolding - still to come

the ground will shake

we may lose our balance

something so solid required

for each one

an anchor of hope

a base of love

as the landscapes change

before our eyes

onto what do we hold

that won't let us down

such enormous times

but it's said we chose

to be here now

so much learning

it would not be possible

for most

to afford the cost

such exquisite education

knowledge of the ages

so as we move on with our days

take a moment to ponder

if all comes tumbling down

on what will you hold to?

Amid the vibrations of the mountains

     Creativity beckons

Life moves on 

our time gets shorter

every moment gone

cannot be returned to us

Somethings beckoning

faint but discernible

can i be quiet enough to listen

i think it's important

there's something to do

as these moments go racing

something important

some unfoldment that's necessary

can i be still enough to listen

the voice is not shouting

turn down the volume

of all my distractions

how long will you wait

to be who you are

the gifts we've given you

to shine like a star

don't for a second

believe those who don't know

their talk incoherent

garbled by intoxicants

your own voice is clear

from the depths of your wisdom

why do you turn

to those outside you

life is moving

at a pace unparalleled

the time for your contribution

is now - don't delay it

the beauty, the joy

the magnificent vision

you carry around

within your bosom

tear open that shirt

don't care for the buttons

release the force

of your unique creativity

life is waiting

and others, thou not aware

the curtains have parted

the music is playing

they call your name

time for your entrance

your time has come

to show your brilliance

from amongst the magick of the mountains

much love

Another time of moving

mama and zeke

My dear friend 'Bef' - reliable and safe - has transported me around the country in comfort and ease!  She sits outside packed to the hilt - on top, inside and bike at the rear. 

It's been 18 months since she's looked this way - when she brought me down here to see my boy.  Now i'm heading 'back' to my 'friend' and my cat - all my 'stuff' that's been sitting and awaiting my return.

A real sense of sadness leaving this place - like pulling out roots that have found hidden crevices.  I didn't think it would feel this hard - i've grown to love my new 'home' like i didn't expect.

I entered my new decade soon after arriving down here - a young modern woman, now in her sixties!

I packed ready to leave, my gorgeous little retreat - bulging, overflowing - dear Bef looked a scene.  My head started throbbing - building with time - just before driving off - i realized forget it!  What are you thinking?  How do you expect to achieve, driving interstate as sick as a dog!  A call to my friend - yes, come on over she kindly says - stay here for the night until you're ready to go.

Another friend arrives within minutes of the call - you're not driving anywhere, come and stay with us.  Many beautiful friends i've made - like never before - kindness and generosity has been showered on me here - i'll never forget it.  So hard to let go.

So it's been a week tomorrow since my departure day was stalled - body had other plans - now why does that surprise me?  Those of you who know me, know that's a familiar pattern - me and my body meeting at strange places.

Over that time a new year has arrived - i'm still feeling delicate - what's in store? 

I've had heaps of support from my lovely naturopathic friend - nature's medicine has been helping with the healing.

I guess it's been a time of healing - down here in the south - time with my beautiful boy - time with myself.

So 2010 has arrived on our door - feels a lot gentler than the arrival of 2009.  But lots still need to happen - as i'm sure most of you are aware - lots and lots of healing still on the agenda.

But everything begins with 'me' - that's the way it goes - nothing can happen outside 'till it happens within.

So as i sit on my last day here for a while - a mix of sadness and still unshed tears. But i need to go 'back' - to see what i've left behind - will it be part of my journey for 2010?

Back within the aura of Mt Lyndsay and Mt Barney - as well as other mountains cradling the area.  A special energy there - so will see how it unfolds - i'll never forget my time here - i will return.

lots and lots of love to you

and may Life's blessings envelope you

Saturn's last message before leaving!

Snowy's 'look' as i was leaving!

Saturn's journey thru Virgo

almost at an end

in a coupl'a weeks

he'll have made a nest in Libra

then relationship fun begins!

I'm as sick as a dog

to coin an old fashioned term

been home for a week

with a 'flu'

bloody thing is insistent

just refuses to let go!

I'm not a very good patient

get restless after a while

i love being at home

but enough is enough

when will things return

to 'normal'?

Ah! that's the thing

it never does

from one moment to the next

but particularly after 'illness'

a new 'state' has been created

and i want to go 'back'

to the 'old' stuff

has the mucus gone to your head?

Sickness is a special time

to listen like never before

a new relationship with your body

a new way of proceeding forward

So Saturn's last day's in Virgo

my god what a bloody 2 yrs

being a Virgo anyway

i know about the body!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

But Saturn's journey thru the Goddess

can be a delicate time

the body being the vehicle

for her purpose here on Earth

So these last few days

before she departs

feels like she's hit me with something huge!

I've been so sick

like never before

god!!!!!!!!!!!!

what have i missed from the lesson?

I know, i've had 2yrs

to get is straight

get it totally clear within my being

but obviously i've missed something

and he's hammering me

before he leaves

well you know what they say

if you survive you become stronger

yes, yes, Saturn's been a companion of mine

for many, many years

but he seems so bloody determined

to get his message across

i'm sure it'll all be clearer

as the months unfold

my new way forward with my body

his gift, my lesson and my understanding

Maybe it's that bloody Pluto

egging Saturn on

he's really giving Saturn the sh . . . .ts

together they make a formidable pair

over the next 2 months

they'll be 'heading' it off

'a sharp awakening' i've heard it said

well buckle up, stay 'centred'

best place will be 'within'

So Saturn has another 2 weeks

before he leaves my sign

a very, very steep learning curve

for me

about the relationship between Mind and Body.

lotsa luv to you all

BACK IN ADELAIDE

Hi all and welcome - from one of Spring's babies - to our season of rebirth and new beginnings!

Just back from some 'Birthday Time' up in 'God's own country', as my Father used to say!! The glorious country of Nth NSW (Oz). From the ocean to the Border country beauty abounds!

Enjoyed the country hospitality of Woodenbong (only 15 kms from the Qld/NSW Border) and a couple of days on the gorgeous coast - first swim of the season!

We visited Tooloom Falls / Aboriginal Place, 'feeling' the presence of many before - a very special place! Kyogle, a country town, confronting the presence of new and old. Uki, protected beneath the magnificent Mt Warning - a pleasant scent of 'alternative' Nth NSW. Stopping for fruit, locally grown. The pockets of rainforest as we make our way north west - sadly only pockets remain. Remnants of 'vandals' everywhere, who came and 'raped' our land? Why is our thinking so uncivilized, so uninclusive of our dear Mother Earth?

But, as i've mentioned many times before - the time of reckoning has come. Those who think they can continue in their ways of raping and plundering - had better think again!

Revolution time has come dear friends - time to arise - give voice to the caring in your heart! Don't just stand by and let 'them' do as they want - 'cause the price has to be paid by us all.

So much beauty surrounds us - our home, this Earth, was given for us to thrive - it's time to wake up and quickly, before it disintegrates before our eyes!

There's no more time for putting off - 'tomorrow' i'll give some time - tomorrow, my friends never arrives - it's now or never to act.

So a paradise still surrounds us - albietly lesser and lesser each day. Each one of us given a body, a voice, a brain to operate with clarity.

So special thanks to the Creator of all for firstly giving me this life - and then a very special teacher of mine - Prem Rawat - revealed to me the 'presence of real life'. My parents who tried their very best to love and nurture me from the start, my ancestors for blessing me with their special gifts, so needed for today. My gorgeous son, who i adore, more special than he knows, my partner and cat for loving me and all my new found friends.

For all the experiences i've had in my life, at times i know they didn't feel like gifts, but they have made me the person i am - now it's my turn to give back.

I do feel a 'purpose', a time to act, a time to speak my truth - this is the time dear friends for us all to do this - this special time has arrived. It requires the very bestest of us all, all our talents and skills and uniqueness - to blend a very special broth - a healing brew is needed.

So let's come together and unite our strengths, this is required now - it's only ignorance and ghosts and shadows that appear, like a rising, powerful army.

Just remember light always wins, love will always conquer - darkness, hate, control and deceipt will glow in the fires of Pluto.

Everything is on our side - the planets around support us - the armagedon has arrived dear friends - but maybe not in the way expected.

Love and light, beauty and care, clarity and peace are our weapons - combined with our unique and individual skills will form the new peace army.

So put down the mags, get up from the coach, turn off the TV for a while - fortify yourself with wholesome food and nutrition, all your strength will be needed.

Keep the focus on love, keep the focus on peace - unite as a family together - comfort and ease, love and support is how we'll know our 'centre'.

So bye for now, talk again soon have a super new season - SPRING - TIME OF NEW LIFE - HAS ARRIVED!

lots of love to you all

My birthday coming up!

Just 13 days to my birthday - my journey thru the 60's has begun - thank you life!

Lots of 'processing' still occuring - that last New Moon was super powerful - grab the proverbial bull by the horns and get on with it!!! Life ain't waiting!

lotsa luv

Mother Nature's looking incredibly radiant!

Early Spring in Adelaide (Oz) and so much beauty abounds!

Fresh new leaves, glorious blossoms, familiar Oz wattle and so much growth emerging everywhere! Such a paradise we've been given to reside in - such beauty!

The orchards in the Hills here are covered in masses of pink and white blossoms - how they delight! The creeks are still full from the abundant winter rains, the breezes still cool but the sun warming each day. Such an exciting time - Spring has begun and Summer is on the way.

Feeling a little tired and weary this last week - energies strong - and much is happening to people around. Great healing energy is available to us now - not the time to waste these precious opportunities to unravel the masses of stuck emotions lodged in our precious bodies. There are wonderful techniques available now to assist with this.

Dislodging and dissolving these chunks of stuck, confused and obstructing masses of undealt with emotions and trauma - is absolutely necessary, to experience real health and wellness.

Leaving these seeving masses of unresolved energy in the body - comes at a great cost - that cost is serious illness and disease - threatening the continuation of our journey here on Earth.

So the time is now - the energy for healing is super strong and available to us. Of course we need to do the work, take the steps - but great rewards are possible. The greatest reward, of course, to be able to continue our journey here on this amazing earth for as long as possible.

Loads of love and fun on your journey to 'betterness'.

lots of love to you
