What Do You Need to Be Rebirthed From?

Posted by lima5ive

· May 7, 2018

Ahhh. Breathe. Deeply take in the depth of life. For some, after a long winter, it’s the sign of hope.

Funny that all the spring Holy days, regardless of what religion or faith, are about death and rebirth—not just rebirth. That is why I asked the question: “What do you need to be rebirthed from?”

What is creating a death in you?

What is killing you? Isn’t this what we say—that “this person or situation is killing me,” meaning stealing your energy, your hope, your clarity, and, sometimes, your soul?

So, the opposite of being killed is willingly giving your life. That is what the “Whole” beings did in each and every spiritual death journey. They gave themselves to death for a greater purpose.

What are you willing to die for? I heard George Clooney say that after he met Amal. He realized that he was willing to die for her. Her life was more important than his own. And you?

Until you are willing to die to your past, you can’t have a different, improved, up-leveled present.

What is holding you captive? The thoughts? The beliefs? The things you can’t give up?

10.

C’mon, list them. If you don’t, they will continue to haunt and own you. You may have more than 10 or less but usually not less. If you need support with this, please sign up for a free session with me to get clarity. This is important love.

Get clarity on what is holding you captive and the possibility of a vibrant rebirth.

What you want to be reborn into is a great question, but not one that holds any power till you know what you GET to die to. It is what holds you captive in habits and patterns that are killing you. Food? Exercise (or lack of it) Anxiety? Depression? Fears? Jealousy? Wishing for another life?

I can only encourage you to use this time and to use this energy to look in at the hauntings of the past that own you.

It’s not easy to embrace looking into the depth of you, or else everyone would be doing it. There are scary monsters there. They own you till you sit with them. I am here to help you do just that instead of blaming others or a situation or… where you currently are.

Blessings to your death to what owns you so you can be reborn.

Wahe Guru Love to You,

Sometimes the Smallest Thing

Sometimes the Smallest Thing

I had an amazing experience the other day. I have my yoga mat on the floor by my desk. I am blessed with a gorgeous backyard and the most sublime weather, so I go outside often, usually barefoot, and I track a lot of stuff back in with me. I shake my mat out often, but this day, I just got down to do a little yoga and had the most wonderful wake up. Instead of shaking my mat out, I looked at the debris, and it was so beautiful. I little feather, petals of some flower, and more goodies. I got to be innocent and just see the wonder of it and not just clean my mat off. This extended into being at a friend’s house and seeing a lone golden yellow dried flower petal adorning her table. We both got to honor it for a moment. Truly we got to honor us by being present to the wonder of this petal, this universe, this life.

These times are so amazing. Basaikhi, Passover, Holy Week, and Easter—all the death and rebirth holy days. I spoke of, and to that, already—not that you can ever speak enough to what needs to be let go of, surrendered and surrendered and surrendered—the awe, wonder, pain, grief, and hope that accompanies all those processes. I wanted to share just some of the astrology that is happening this month. I really like Lisa Zimmerman’s work in terms of her column and Gahl Sasson in terms of a great astrologer to consult with. This is a little long, so read it when you have a chance to be with it, but do it soon.

The stage is being set and the anticipation is building, day by day, for the dramatic astrological setup we will experience during the month of April.

The planets are moving into position to form a Grand Cardinal Cross (or Grand Square). This contains four planets squaring each other, along with two oppositions. It is combustible, pressurized energy that will impact us all, as it guarantees change—either deliberate (you decide) or reactive (you, directed by outside forces/events).

This GC is in Cardinal signs (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn) and they are the initiators. These are the signs that begin the seasons; they start things. That’s why this Grand Square is so active—it’s comprised of 4 initiators!

The 5th Pluto/Uranus square is part of this Grand Cross, which indicates revolution and rebellion against old, outdated structures that need to change. Or new ways of doing things vs. the way we’ve always done them (traditional). We’ve been in this energy for a few years, but because this square is part of a Grand Cross, it makes it more potent.

We are also in the Eclipse Period, which begins two weeks before the Lunar Eclipse (April 15th) and ends two weeks after the Solar Eclipse (April 29th). This creates an aura of unpredictability when dramatic events often occur.

The Lunar Eclipse is about endings, so watch what’s happening in the world and notice what’s ending in your life. Whatever’s ending needs to go, whether it’s external or an attitude or other internal experience, so let it go!

This is a major “Hallway” time, as we are all experiencing a changing world, not to mention what’s happening for us personally as well. (see offer in Note from Lisa above).

Venus (love, values, $$, worthiness) moves into Pisces tomorrow, sign of its exaltation. Compassion, empathy and a feeling of Oneness with All That Is, is the antidote for all the depression, aggression and separation that is activated by the fear around change.

Whenever you feel panicky or low vibration, suspicious or frustrated, shift yourself by dropping into your heart. Connect with the energy of a loved one, a baby, a puppy, nature or something that humbles you and reminds you of the majesty of this life you’re living.

It’s the stories you tell yourself that are causing you pain. If you’re in an ending, feel the grief, but you don’t have to make yourself – or anyone wrong for what’s happening.

If you’re going through anything that’s more than you can handle, get support. There are many resources available, whether you have money or not. Be creative and take good care of yourself.

There’s a lot going on, so use this time to shift and grow and release the shackles that have been holding you down!

Bless you. Love you. Remember, I am here to serve you. I have a special this week to support you.

Tips to Enjoy the Holidays: Turn Your Challenges to Diamonds

Tips to Enjoy the Holidays: Turn Your Challenges to Diamonds –

I have a pet peeve in blogs. Technical blogs are supposed to give you practical tools but spiritual or inspirational or uplifting blogs don’t have to. They just tell you the “what” without the “how.” There are pathways defined but now also tools on how to avoid or work with the rocks or the monsters on the path.

I want to breach that model and create another that does give you tools. This is the time of year that is marvelous; a time to be thankful, spend lots of time with family (or not), and have expectations galore. It’s when commitments, the how-do-you-deal-with-all-the-pulls, and all the stressors abound. In spite of these, you’ll still actually be able to enjoy these Holy/Holly Days.

Each Week for the next 40 days (6 weeks till Christmas) I will give you 1, yes, one tip that can easily be incorporated into your life so you can enjoy this time and not feel drawn and quartered.

Turn your challenges into Diamonds. It has been said that your challenges brighten or bring light to your lives and prosperity expands your life. Working through suffering is not something that happens quickly. Do this one thing and it will all be good. There is no instant pain relief that doesn’t cause pain on the back end.

Here is something that will help you but you will need to create some silence in your life. Find solace in the bathtub, bathroom, closet, or take a walk by yourself even if it’s late at night—just make sure it is a good neighborhood. You can find a way if you want to.

Good news is if you do this one thing every day when you are going through challenges, they will reveal the vastness they were set up to reveal to you. This is going to seem just too simple:

Sit quietly and ask your suffering, what is to come from it to teach you. Then be quiet and listen. Then listen some more. The asking part is easy, the listening, not as much. But the best way to enhance that is to be open to hearing what will give you patience, allow gratitude, imbue you with humility. This won’t be an immediate ah-ha but it may. This is for 40-days minimum. You give yourself these 11-22 minutes of quiet. You can drive in silence and listen. It is the listening that will quiet the mind. You can’t be doing things other than driving and that is not at the top of the list in silence for this part. Why? Because your mind will focus on what you are doing and not on the question you asked.

Don’t fear challenges. Be present with them and they will give you the present you have asked for. Stay tuned to the next post which will shed more light on the subject and into how this all connects to the rest of your life.

Wahe Guru Love to you,

Gurutej Khalsa

As we move into… Holy Days

As we move into… Holy Days

So in this moment, take a breath of this wonderful Fall air where ever you are and for some of you, I know it is springtime. Still, use it as an excuse to take a breath and look at how you want to use this next cycle to elevate you, so you don’t go into the holidays/Holy days with the same concerns, dread, and repeating of old patterns that have wrapped the holy days like old torn wrapping paper. Take the time for introspection so you can truly be reborn with the light of Winter Solstice, or again, Summer Solstice for others.

Give yourself a vast view of how you can ready yourself so you don’t have the same experience that you always have with the holidays. That it can be so much better in so many ways. Which way is the most worn in for you? Which pattern wears you out the most? Where do you fall into the same patterns and how, with pre-vision, can you sidestep it this year? How can you not be available to, or for it, this year? Get a long-range vision of your life. I can help you with that. Click this for Transformational Sessions. This is the best time of the year to take care of you and your patterns so you can go into this blast and make it. It’s not the blast from the past but a true celebration of birth and rebirth that it is meant to be.

Give yourself the gift of your clarity or purpose so you get to propose the way these holidays—these Holy days—go for you and those around you. You can change it for everyone. You have that power of projection if you just take this moment to follow through.
All love in the Divine,

Who Are You?

Do you remember that this was the question posed by the huka smoking caterpillar? As a child I had no idea what that meant. As a teen I got it but now I know this is the real question most are too afraid to ask. We are afraid to ask ourselves we are afraid to ask others We are just plain afraid.

This is my holiday gift to you read and do. So what is so scary about this question? If you really want to be fearless do this. Sit in front of your mirror for 11 -31 minutes don’t even bother if you can’t give this at least 11 minutes. As ask this question of yourself over and over. If you really stick with it for 31minutes or 62 minutes you will be amazed at how wise you really are. The initial answers are not so profound but as you drop in it gets better with each asking. Wisdom gets uncovered. Wisdom is priceless but you have to pay the price to get it. Wisdom is fearlessness and intuition connected.

Sometimes we can drone one when we know that less is more. If you want to be truly fearless then do this meditation. If you want to scamper to a corner and try to be safe be my quest. You will find other rodents there with you. Stand up and take a stand. Claim the sunlight and let it rip through you. Be Celestial. Do the meditation and claim your birthright…… YOU.

Wahe Guru Blessings to you.

What gives in your world?

Right now lots of people are having more challenges than are comfortable for them. There is a reason for all this. We think it is the collapse of the economy but truly it is the collapse of the old order. The creation of a new order. The creation of two diametrically opposed camps. The gun totting fanatic and the peace and love peacekeepers. You can’t be in both camps. You can try but it’s like asking a child to straddle the ocean, one foot in America and one in France. This is an amazing time in history. One that has played out before but the magnitude of the population now is greater. The magnitude of our influencial impulses are greater. The connectivity of our worlds is much more linked. So how we go more fear or more love will effect everyone and how our future looks, feels, tastes and is.

We can feel each other and each others emotions and devotions. I heard this program on NPr today about these huge telescopes that are being created around the world, none in the US. One in Chile, One Switzerland and one in one more place. They will use these telescopes to smash atoms and try to replicate the big bang on a very small scale. How amazing is that and what if the scale of these impulses are bigger, greater, more influencial than they thought? So many questions and they are saying they could be totally wrong and are excited. If they are right or wrong either way they will learn something new and that excites them. What about you are you excited about? What you are learning, Doing, Feeling, Knowing?

To truly know you have to make way for new thought, new vision. It is house cleaning time. Clear away the clutter. The people, the things, the obligations, the fear factors. Clear it fearlessly. You can’t start anew dragging dead cows behind you. Got to loose the dead cows. They take different forms but they stink and they make you stink. Hang out with the ones who bring out your best. The scents you are attracted to. The ones that inspire you to live to your greatness, beyond time and space.

Space we can loop like taking a round trip on a train, plane or automobile. Time we have not figured out if it can be looped. What takes you beyond time and space? What gives you that dip into infinity? How often to do visit there?

When my children were small they used to say, “I love you infinity, and they would hold their arms open as wide as they could.” I loved that. It made them laugh and made me love that they thought in those terms.

What aspect of infinity do you dive into with the most ease? How can you best share that part of you during these Holy days? Whole comes from us feeling holy in control of all our holes. By the way nine for men and ten for women. Control how the energy flows into and out of each of them and you are holy. Whole. Whole you and it become contagious way more than the swine flu. Be contagious in the best sense of the word. Spread the wholeness.

Blessings
