Energy Update 7/16

Hello Fellow Travelers,  As promised, an energy update for Thursday July 16.  The Energy Message is written here, channeled with love from the Divine Feminine Heart.  The High Priestess, The Hermit, Divine Direction, Mountains The Guardian for this energy read is The High Priestess. She is focused and aware of her power to intend, create, shift and transform. The transformations are in the moment. Small, simple, momentary transformation creates long lasting peace of mind and clear choice making.  The High Priestess uses a staff or wand to direct energy in the direction she deems appropriate. We can use tools such as wands. They can be made of natural materials and are a reminder of "where our attention goes, so goes our power". Focusing our intention (attention) and grounding our energy, strengthening our light is of utmost importance. This reading gives us the "how to". Retreat and recharge for optimum health and well being. So much healing energy is available if we stop and turn within and listen. It is rough going when we spend time connecting in with the outer world. Chances are great that we will loose our footing, or become scattered and fragmented a bit more quickly when we focus our attention on the outer world.  The outer world is the comings and going of people and events out of our control. There is a fine line between what we have control over and what we do not. Make that line definitive. Make it bold. Make it something you can see and know when you cross it. Make it a snake pit, or a swollen river. The line is a must have boundary. Sometimes we are tired of boundaries and wish we didn't have to be so adamant with them. They are more necessary and powerful now than ever. They give us a container in which to gain energy, a focus and a direction.  Be like the mountain. Unmovable, fierce, built up over time, persistent, naturally unyielding, respected, timeless, and revered. A mountain is glorious in its presence. The boundaries with a mountain are not anything to negotiate with. Boundaries are created out of the sheer force of its natural power of existence. You don't negotiate with a mountain about its climate or height, or flora and fauna. You respect its presence and the truth of both its dangers and its beauty. So it is with you.  Know your limits. Know what you do and do not have control over. You have choice to how you will respond. You have choice in your attitude, and what you are allowing to influence your mood, You have choice in what you consume. You have choice in how you approach everything. Choice is a boundary. Where you focus your energy, (thoughts, time, actions) is a boundary.  Our heart, otherwise known as our wise self; and our soul, otherwise known as the guardian of our destiny; are leading us on the path of divine direction. Divine direction is the direction of health and well-being. It is the direction and focus that assures a positive outcome. Positive outcomes can be many things- moments of peace, acts of kindness, a much needed connection with a loved one, spirit or nature, and a remembering of our true nature.  Positive outcomes aren't always readily seen, yet when we choose to focus on that which we can control and use our energy wisely in the manner we are being guided by our wise heart and guardian soul, then a positive outcome is assured.  You know what it feels like to set your sights on something and focus your attention to get that something. Put this natural human ability to use now. Help create an inner and outer world of peace and calm amidst storms of transformation. Remember the mountain. It withstands many storms. The storms actually are a part of its existence. A necessary dance of existence.  The storms of life, and there are many raging storms now, gives our natural human tendency for problem solving and using our resources a chance to strengthen.  Making decisions about our health and safety, our work lives, travel plans, social connections, financial stability, others well-being, human rights, basic needs met, and our unknown futures, can feel like a giant storm. Dance with these choices.  What comes of this dance?What questions and answers swirl to the forefront? Who and what reveals its power to you? What can you focus your attention on now?  Where and how do you source the most compassionate and "right" answers for yourself?  Quiet your mind and use your power of choice to turn within. Call a meeting of your inner guidance system. Don't have one? Create one. It starts with your inner wise self. What does he or she look like? The Hermit archetype or The High Priestess can give you a visual if you need one. Calm, assured, sitting/standing in a powerful, grounded way, your wise self is ready and willing when you give it the floor.  Listen to the silence. Honor yourself for simply being here. Breathe deeply of the moments when your human self gives way to your eternal Self. The wise self and soul self are the parts of you that are vying for your attention. For every pull outward there is an equal pull inward. Our pull inward must now be stronger than our pull outward. Our inner knowing must be strengthened. This is the evolution we are all undergoing. The system upgrade. Stand your ground. Be grounded in your own life. No need to fight with anyone when you stand in your own vibrant energy and claim the power of your life. Mountains do not fight. They withstand. They are full of possibilities for endless solutions and resourceful, consistent, life affirming activity. You are full of possibilities. Focus and intend with the fullness of your being. You've got more going for you than you ever thought possible. Reign it in and use it wisely.  Love, Mary
