Love is the Medicine ~ The Completion of the Blood Moon Tetrad of 2015

Today is the day. The only day that exists in this moment. Not yesterday or tomorrow, only today. This particular day in time is quite the special one as it is a Total Full Blood Harvest Super Moon Eclipse. It is the fourth Blood Moon since April of 2014. There have been 54 Blood Moon Tetrads (series of four) since the birth of Christ. 5+4=9. 9 is a number of completion. Life as we have known it no longer exists. We are ushering in a New Era. Not only is the Moon in an auspicious placement, but all of the planets have aligned in such a way that it is undeniable that we are at the crest of a phenomenal astrological wave of inspiration, change, release, upgrade and ascension. The purpose of this blog is to inform you of the ways that the Universal Heart & Mind is here completely in support of your highest evolution and transformation, and to tune you into a an aspect of an ancient story that is still being played out. The Great Mother and Holy Father are here holding you in the highest divine White Light as a Sacred Child. This is a time for healing. This is a time for forgiveness. This is a time to acknowledge your true self and express it without shame, guilt, fear or falsities. It's time to show up. 
My new favorite phrase?
Show up and Glow! 

The Goddess Awakens as The Morning Star

This Blood Moon signifies the rising of a New Dawn. As Venus is currently the Morning Star, the Goddess is calling for recognition. I choose to recognize her in a way that is meaningful to me, and I feel will be refreshing for millions if they choose to digest it. I want to share a perspective of a very old story with you that may inspire you.... or may piss you off. However it lands within your being is perfect. My intention is love, truth and peace, so I trust that no matter how it lands, it will weave it's way into your heart with ease and grace. It is the story of Christ, in a very different light than you may be familiar with. This is more of the full story as it has made itself known to me, not just the masculine dominated patriarchal pages that we have been force fed through religion and politically edited texts. This part of the story includes a very special lady, one that has been a mystery to many throughout the ages. A lady of light who is the counterpart to the co-creation of Christ Consciousness. Now is the time to see her more clearly, as she steps out of the shadows and to the forefront of the stage on which this drama has been acted out for the last 2000 years.

The Feminine Christ 

Her name is Mary Magdalene. She is mentioned 12 times in the New Testament, showing up for Yeshua (Jesus), her beloved teacher, friend, healer, guide and companion, in the most meaningful of ways. I am not going to completely claim that Yeshua and the Magdalene were married or making love or having babies, but I am going to pose it as a possibility. She was the one that showed up for him in the most potent of ways, and her presence and lineage is more powerful than any of us may realize. Yeshua cast seven demons from her, she supported him financially, in one text is says 'he kissed her on the [mouth]' and was his companion, she washed his feet with her hair and tears, she was there at the crucifixion, and she was the one who waited at the tomb and witnessed his resurrected form for the first time. To me, these are all extremely significant. There is not any 'verified' text pointing to a marriage or a sexual relationship, but I have an intuition and a deep cellular knowing that Mary Magdalene was an initiated High Priestess and was a Tantric Ally for the Ascension of Christ. What I mean by Tantric Ally is this. For Jesus to do what he did (miraculously heal others and defeat death within his own body, eventually ascending in his light body to the ethereal realms) he practiced. He practiced breathing, He meditated, He fasted, He prepared. There is over a decade of Yeshua's life 'missing' from the Bible. There are sacred texts from India and other holy lands that lead us to believe He traveled to these lands and learned of the ancient ways of mastering the mind, body and spirit. He had teachers, and the Magdalene was one of them. Tantra simply means to 'to stretch'. Christ's life has definitely stretched our ability to love and receive love from Our Mother/Father God, so I would say it is Tantric for sure. Tantra is simply a weaving, a seeking of truth and a path of awareness. This is very much the Christic Path. Mary Magdalene was his Tantric Ally because she HELD SPACE for him to be the Master that he was. Holding space for his teachings. Holding space for his death. Holding space for his resurrection. Holding space for ascension. Holding space for His Mission to be grounded in solidly to this Earth Grid. Obviously Jesus needed a very powerful and devoted team to help him ground this impeccably powerful frequency of Unconditional Love onto this planet. She helped Him in ways we may never know. Whether they were making sacred love, married and eventually procreators to a mysterious lineage matters not. What matters is the Goddess that assisted Christ in his mission to bring this Light to this planet is SEEN, HONORED and WITNESSED. Now is the time for us to see. Now is the time for us to witness this resurrection within OURSELVES.

Re-Writing HerStory & History 

This Full Blood Super Harvest Moon Total Eclipse is a perfect moment in time to re-write all of the old stories that simply suck and don't make sense. I grew up the only daughter of a Baptist Minister (and both of my grandfathers were also ministers, my great-grandfather, too). I never felt comfortable with the hellfire and brimstone teachings of needing to be 'saved'. I knew in my heart that God was Love, that Jesus wouldn't damn anyone for inter-racial or gay marriage, and that just because I wanted to explore sexuality before I was married that wasn't a sinner. I knew that there was more to the story than what I was being told. Now, I realize I am helping to re-write this story and bring to light some of the aspects that may help you make more sense of it all. I do feel like this is the time of the 'Second Coming of Christ'. To me, this Second Coming is the Arising of the Christ WITHIN us. Jesus is The LIGHT within our very souls, the LOVE that we are made of! Not something outside of ourselves that we must beg to and plead for. He said it himself "the kingdom of heaven is within in you". His teachings were not of separation, judgement, hatred or fear. His teachings were to love each other, and he was surrounded by women and men who held him up and helped carry him forward. I feel that now is the time to recognize those Goddesses and begin to approach this story from the Perspective of the Divine Feminine, which has been buried, shamed, forgotten, abused, distorted and dismissed over the years in a very unfortunate way.

Sacred Womb Blood

As this Moon turns Blood Red it is time that we acknowledge the Sacred Blood that comes through the womb of the Divine Feminine. If we honor the Blood of Christ then we also can understand that our own blood is also sacred, especially the blood that would have made life, the blood that monthly flows from our Holy Chalice...our Sacred Wombs. These teachings may be hard for some to hear, and that is ok. I fear not the judgement or misunderstandings because now is the time for me to personally release the stories of fear and shame around my blood, my sexuality, my healing, my love, my life and my image. I am here to share with you the deepest of my truths on this day because TRUTH is the only thing that can really set us free. I feel that our wombs are the Holy Grail. That is how all of this connects. Mary Magdalene may or may not have birthed a child conceived with Yeshua; they may or may not have been married. But one thing is certain, she was a key element in the story and she was silenced and made out to be a whore, which is not true and never mentioned anywhere in the Bible. Her LOVE was a gift to Yeshua and helped make it possible for His purpose to be completed. Whether she birthed his child or not, she birthed his purpose. We are still helping Her complete this purpose, as we acknowledge and recognize that we are also Christ Like Beings placed on this planet now to help the entire planet ascend! 

Our Purpose and Role as Christ Light Beings

If Jesus healed people from the confines of death and turned his own body into pure white light then WE CAN DO THIS TOO! John 14:12 states this powerful truth: “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do; because I go to the Father.”  We have a huge responsibility as we awaken to this truth. Stay with your breath, tap into your stillness, and operate from there. 

In Conclusion ~

So, here we are. This is how I am choosing to re-write a story in my mind that has haunted me and millions of others for millennia. If I choose to change the stories that were written for me around shame, guilt and suppression around sexuality, the Sacred Goddess, my divine monthly Moon Blood flow, and the power of Love and healing that is very present inside me then I am doing myself and everyone else a huge freaking favor. There has been so much pain and death around this story, and people do horrible things and call themselves 'believers'. I encourage you to tap deep down into your truths and drum up what resonates with you MOST on this Full Blood Harvest Super Moon Total Lunar Eclipse. Allow that which no longer serves your highest good to be completely released back to the realms of unconditional love. Let your demons know you love them, thank them for being your teachers and release them back to the Father who can manage them much better than you. Dissolve the old habits holding you back from truly stepping in to your full potential. Release the thoughts that drag you down. Let go of relationships that disrespect your heart. Forgo circumstances that are mediocre to allow for opportunities that will enable you to FLY!

To tie it all together and wrap it up with a beautiful bow I will leave you with these few key points. *Mary Magdalene represents the Divine Feminine in a story that has been very overly masculinely communicated; she brings balance and can show us how to perceive Christ/Jesus in a new light, allowing this energy to fully arrive on the planet, leading to the 'Second Coming' which is actually the arising of the Christ Consciousness inside of our beings. *The Blood Moon is an opportunity to honor the Goddess more fully by acknowledging that Moon Blood from a woman's womb is a sacred fluid that should be honored and given back to the Earth with love and reverence, not discarded and deemed disgusting. This is life force. This is sacred. It is a gift. *The power of Christ is within YOU, and your ability to heal yourself and the world around you is a real experience, not something outside of yourself. *Heaven is also inside of you and we can choose to experience heaven or hell at any moment. Your kingdom in within. On this unique day in space and time I ask of you, dear brothers and sisters, to honor yourselves as the High Kings and Queens you were born to be, the Holy Children of The Divine Mother/Father God/dess that thought you into existence! NOW IS THE TIME AND WE ARE THE ONES!!!!!
RISE UP AND SPREAD YOUR WINGS! FLY INTO THE UNKNOWN AND FEAR NOT! 
We are One with the very Source that Created All Things, and this is our time to show up and shine. I am here for you, here with you, and here as You. May all beings everywhere be peaceful, healthy, holy, happy, liberated and in their highest divine Truth. To all of our relations. Aho. Amen. So it is. 
Blessings and Love ~

Day 17: Amazing Grace

Today is the last full day of Week Two Sacred Circularities. As soon as I got out of bed my foot reminded me about the little tumble I took on the bridge. Hmmmm... a hobbling kind of day. Take it slow, take it easy, breathe deep and stay present. This is my mantra. This is my pace. I have been running all around writing and teaching and taking classes and eating with friends and Skyping with Kellen and just having a grande ole time! But now, The Universe says “Slow Down”. I listen, thankful for the grace and gentility of this tiny lesson, that could have been much worse. Today we go In Depth the Gail, Tammy and myself, and have one super fun workshop with Gail as well. I love learning from these amazing women, truly. They inspire me beyond my realm of mental comprehension. I will admit here and now that I never feel ‘like the best hooper in the room’, even though I feel very confidant with what I teach, way I teach it, and the clarity it brings my students. I feel acknowledged for who I am and what I offer, and I also feel very inspired to take it to the next level with my hooping, so that I can continue to inspire the community on multiple levels. Today I was able to inspire during my In Depth in a way that is new for me, and people appreciated very much.

In Depth with Tammy FireFly was such a sweet and intimate experience. She is so beautiful! I remember when I met Tammy in 2010 in San Diego, on my first round of touring with the Qi Revolution. She was walking up to the event with hula hoops, staves and poi in hand, and I had my multiple hoops walking into the same door. We were instant sisters. To hear her speak on her journey, her size, her methods of training and her dedication to health and well being was magically inspiring. I am so grateful to be able to witness Tammy ‘do her thing’ with such grace, beauty and majestic quality. She may only be 4’9”, but has the BIGGEST heart and the BRIGHTEST talent! I love you FireFly! Thank you for being in my life :)

The “Two Hoops One Hand” Workshop with Gail was so much fun and very mentally stimulating. I have taken a workshop from her on this material once before at HoopCamp and have been practicing her teachings ever since. I love it! It hurts a little in the beginning to find the control on your hands, fingers and forearms, but the rewards are great and very visually pleasing to an audience. We worked also on Four Hoops Two Hands and I think this is where the majority of time in training will be spent. I really like the shapes that four hoops can create and love showing the world the sacred shapes of hoop dance. Geometry makes the world go round, and hoop dance is a mystical story being told by the dance of our bodies and circles, and very heart opening to all who witness. Thanks for showing us what hours of training a day looks like, Gail! Practice More! 

In Depth with Gail was equally inspiring and heart opening as Tammy’s. Gail didn’t start hooping until she was 29! She is so badass you would think she’s been at it for a lot longer. She was inspired by a young girl in Bolivia, while training for her previous profession as a physiotherapist. Being from a small town in Belfast, Ireland, she is absolutely the lead hoop icon of the flow community there, and around the world for that matter. She has the tattoo on her feet for us all to be reminded; “Practice More”. Yes, Gail, yes. We can see how her hours and hours of practice daily pays off. Her performance is always moving to the depths of the soul and her technique is flawless. She is so innovative, and has inspired me to get back to the roots of my own practice....my training. I love you, Gail. It is an honor to teach at the same retreat with you and all of these other phenomenal women.

In Depth with Myself. Ha! It actually did go quite deep. I had a hurt foot, so while all of the other hoopers danced their most inspiring dance at the opening of their In Depths, I was ‘forced’ to do things a little differently. I sang. I sang my heart open to the tune of the first song I remember learning, ‘Amazing Grace’. Singing in front of my peers is a new experience that I am embracing in a beautiful light. Singing and Storytelling. At the same time. This is my newest expression, my most authentic art. I shared my story, from beginning to present moment. I spoke about my up bringing as a southern baptist preachers daughter, ever-evolving relationship with my amazing father and mother, which was the most inspiring portion to many, bringing tears to the eyes of women who could relate. I mentioned how my hoop career was fueled by a breakup, and how I would not tolerate being with a man who could not appreciate the way I was blossoming and growing into my highest self. I got raw around my issues in my late teens and early twenties with alcohol, drugs, promiscuity, food, tobacco, and depression. I shed some light for those who have battled with mood disorders and a lack of self love. It was so refreshing and liberating to be able to tell my story, be heard, loved, valued, and honored for it. “You are a wonderful story teller”, was the feedback from every participant there and many of the other instructors. I realize this is truly my highest calling, and am choosing to embrace this. Inspirational Speaking, Motivational Improv, and Stand Up Comedy here I come! ;) 

Anyone willing to book me for my first gig as a Storyteller with a Circular prop?! 

All in all, it was a very sweet closing to the gathering in it’s fullest expression. I had a very fun Human Design Reading with a 21 year old participant who was so grateful and loving about her session afterwards. She even paid me extra. It feels so amazing to assist people on their own evolution. I am feeling Bali mold me and curate my offerings to be of the highest service to my fellow flow folk, and for the masses. I feel the book brewing, and promise that after this 40 Day Blog Challenge is over, the books are my next project. Stay tuned and sign up for my mailing list so that when it is complete, you can snag a free copy! Blessings and Beauty abound from BALI ~

One in the Sacred Story,

Day One: Arrival

I have the stamp on my visa. I am officially in Indonesia for 40 days. Jesus was in the desert for 40 days and became a prophecy fulfilled. I wonder what will happen for me. Truly, I wonder what it is that will come through me. What will the Universe have me create? I am so excited! It was such an initiation just GETTING here. 36 hours of flights, layer overs and everything in between. Maui > Honolulu > Tokyo > Jakarta > Bali. 

I always meet such sweet people on planes. This time I sat next to (on four different flights) a man named Tracy stationed in Osaka with his wife and two kids, who was astounded I could make a living from hula hooping. He proclaimed his daughter would think I was very cool, and that she would want my boots (My new cowgirl boots from Texas). There was Sara, who is Indonesian but lives in Australia, and was going diving with her boyfriend in Flores. She was also very excited about my chosen career and was also very excited that this was my first time in Bali. “You’re going to love it!”, she said with a heart felt smile. Then there was the kid in the rock metal band. 22 years old and leaving California for the first time. He was so stoked! He couldn’t believe I was 30. We had one thing in common (and one thing only I realized deeper into the conversation). This ‘one thing’ is the most important ‘thing’ to both of us, and probably the most important ‘thing’ to many others. We do what we love. We are doing what we love and traveling the world and making a life. A good life. A GREAT life! He gets to travel all over Asia and play heavy metal with his favorite bands, and I get to travel and teach hoop, breath and conscious living. 

I am so happy that there are so many people creating lives like these. 

And it has brought me to beautiful, beloved Bali. To Sacred Circularities 2015 Bali! Where there are flowers and coconut leaves in water bowls as offerings all over. Where there are women carrying heavy objects on their heads. Where there is delicious curry. Where there are butterflies and dragonflies and frogs in your bathroom that is mostly outside. Where there are terraced fields of rice patties sparkling in the sun. Bali. 

Where the smell of flowers permeates the air and everyone seems to be smiling because they know that they live and breathe beauty. I am so grateful to be here.

I got a massage as soon as I checked in to the hotel, Ananda Cottages. I unpacked my bag and my altar and went to the Spa straight away. It was imperative that I take care of myself after all that crazy travel with hardly any sleep at all....so I ordered the 75 minute Double Hand (two people, four hands) Massage and a Rice and Turmeric body scrub. Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh....the relief! 

Rhythmic and synchronized awesomeness. After the hot shower I recognized I felt like a new woman. And then I realized, I AM! I am a woman, a new me, on a new day, on a new continent, in a new country, learning a new culture, being touched by new people, opening to new possibilities. 

I am so ready to receive the blessings this will bring. 

After my relaxing treatment I had a nice dinner by myself, which felt really good after being around so many people on planes and such. After dinner I brushed my teeth and was in bed by 7:30. I woke up this morning at 3:55AM feeling amazingly rested and ready to write THIS blog. I am inspired to write 40 blogs in 40 days. I want all of you to experience this beauty through my eyes. Today is officially Day Two as I am writing this....and today the Sacred Circularities officially begins with an opening circle at 7:30PM. I am so grateful to this hoop community for showing me so much love, enough love to bring me all the way across the ocean to teach and share more about hoop, breath and being impeccably YOU. It is because of this amazing community, and the generous and visionary Jaguar Mary X, that I am able to live this aspect of my biggest dreams. We are all living our dream together! Me, you and that rock metal kid on the plane ;) Hundreds of hoopers are gathering here in March and July to celebrate and recreate who they are, celebrate The Year of Realization.

 In a good way, with a good heart, we dance in the land of sacred devotion, we thrive on fresh faces and old friends, we hold hands to form the most ancient and knowing of all shapes; The Circle. We truly are creating a new world. I am honored to be your eyes from the other side during this time of great transformation and celebration! Stay posted....there is so much beauty yet to be revealed. 

Until tomorrow, baik-baik ya (take care) <3
