I recently read an interesting article in which the author indicated a belief that the life-span of human beings could be related to the emotional pain we are willing to endure. In other words, humans seem to be able to bear the sufferings and heartbreak of the world and their personal life for only about 100 years. I thought this was an interesting hypothesis.
Taking this a step further, I believe that authenticity is a determining factor in our ability to create longevity. Consider for example, the person who genuinely can give voice to his or her truth with confidence and good self-esteem, yet without judging or tearing down another human being. Following this logic, an authentic human being would have less depletion on heart energy. They would be able to act with honour and integrity because everything they did would be an action of love.
I believe authenticity is the most noble of qualities that a person can develop. The courage to compliment another person with genuine admiration and without fearing that it will make you seem emotionally weak is a splendid quality. The confidence to critique another’s (or your own) actions and offer beneficial or more effective solutions can be very valuable.
I believe authenticity is intelligence in action and being. It takes no cleverness whatsoever to fight with another person. It takes great intellectual capability to negotiate an evenhanded and fair outcome to disagreeing parties.
I believe it is a brilliant practice to ask our Infinite Angels every day, several times a day, to help us to be authentic and genuine as well as compassionate and caring. The qualities that we develop within will shape our outer world.
Blessings.

MERCURY RETROGRADE DEC 2010
When a planet (in today’s case, Mercury) goes retrograde, it appears to move backwards. It does not really move backwards – that is silly. A planet, star, galaxy, or any object moving in a particular circular pattern cannot stop itself and move in an opposing directional pattern.
A planet moving retrograde gives the impression that it is moving backward because other planets or the earth seem to move faster in their elliptical orbits. It is similar to a pair of trains moving in the same direction on parallel tracks. To the passengers in the faster train, it will appear that the slower train is moving backwards, although it is still moving forwards.
The symbol for retrograde is an Rx, just like the pharmaceutical symbol for a prescription. This just means we need a little help… not drugs! You can think of the symbol as representing a re-do, re-cycle, re-think, re-pair, or any other thing/word with a re- in front of it.
If you purchase something in the time of Mercury retrograde, you may need to re-turn it to the store because of a defect that you didn’t notice. You got home and re-examined the item, found the defect and realized you had to go back and get another one that is without flaws. Really, a retrograde just means that you need to be more careful and aware reguarding any qualities of that planet or the house it is traveling through at the time.
Mercury is the planet of communications, so you may notice a difference in how statements are affecting you or that you are more or less careful with your pronouncements to others.
The positive effects of Mercury retrograde are often found in re-connecting with old friends, re-gifting important sentimental items, or re-discovering delightful places you once enjoyed.
This particular Mercury retrograde lasts from Dec. 10th to Dec. 30th, 2010. There is a period of adjustment for a few days after Dec. 30th until the planet appears to re-stabilize.
As always, be sure to ask your Infinite Angels for assistance during the shaky times as they are above and beyond physical restraints and planetary influences. You can also call on the Ascended Master, Apollo, who is the archetypal representation of communication and the planet Mercury.
Blessings.

CHANGES
Human beings are often uncomfortable with change. Everything changes. Things change constantly. Even our bodies are ceaselessly making changes, creating new cells to replace dead cells, exchanging atoms and molecules.
The earth is changing rapidly. We are noticing more erratic weather. The planet is spinning more rapidly upon its axis. Scientists have had to speed up atomic clocks that were supposed to keep correct time down to the millisecond for the next few hundred years.
One of the often sad changes that we must deal with is the loss of loved ones. There are almost 7 billion people in the world now so it makes sense that many people would die and many would be born. And, I do not know about others, but it seems to me that there are a lot of people crossing over to the other side recently. There seems to be a world-wide grieving for loss of loved ones. I see people grieving for those who have died that they did not even know.
On a subconscious level, we are all connected. Although we are still connected in spirit with loved ones, it can be difficult to deal with the physical loss.
This is a poem by Mary Elizabeth Frye that I often share with friends and loved ones who have experienced a loss. For me, it is an expression of hope, love, and peace.
DO NOT STAND AT MY GRAVE AND WEEP
Do not stand at my grave and weep,
I am not there, I do not sleep.
I am in a thousand winds that blow,
I am the softly falling snow.
I am the gentle showers of rain,
I am the fields of ripening grain.
I am in the morning hush,
I am in the graceful rush
Of beautiful birds in circling flight,
I am the starshine of the night.
I am in the flowers that bloom,
I am in a quiet room.
I am in the birds that sing,
I am in each lovely thing.
Do not stand at my grave and cry,
I am not there. I do not die.
~Mary Elizabeth Frye.

TRIBUTE
This beautiful planet is a playground as well as a classroom. If you are lucky, you may realize that you can play as well as learn. This is just one of the profound truths that I learned from my beloved teacher & elder, Shakmah Winddrum. My beautiful Spiritual Mother crossed over into spirit on Thursday, November 26, 2010.
I first met Shakmah in 1996 & it was she that truly accelerated & motivated me along the spiritual path. Even before I met her, when I heard her name, it took my breath away. I knew she was an incredibly important person to me. I valued her guidance & would often mentally consult with her about choices & decision making. She was kind, brilliant, devoted, compassionate, & powerful. Once at a ceremony, I could feel her energy about 25 feet away. Most people have an energetic space of 2-3 feet.
Shakmah was also a great cook. After a weekend of teaching, she would often serve a feast for the students. Someone once complained that Shakmah had not cooked the meal. She went into the kitchen & I swear the taste of the food changed. I think all she did was stir the pot. She said she put love in the food. All I know is that it really was more flavorful.
Shakmah performed a ceremony for me in which she blessed my hands & throat (because I am a hypnotherapist) for healing. It was interesting that, for a year & a day, I could often see Shakmah’s hands at the end of my wrists.
I believe that I was guided by Spirit to legally change my name because of Shakmah’s love, devotion, & teachings. She helped me to be more, a better person & I love her always.
Blessings.
