An urge to emerge
:hi:
I've been doing lots more reading and listening than writing/participating for quite awhile now.
Thank you to all those who share their experiences with us and voice what many feel and think.
So, I'd like to share that I can so relate to many of the recent posts here.
Feeling stuck, adrift, hitting a wall, low energy, etc.
This is how I've been feeling, too.

Everything I've "planned" for myself in life, consciously or consciously, seems to have been upended at this point-or taken away.
During this fairly severe winter weather, I've felt cocooned. I find myself staring out the window, and I could stay this way all day. As an artist (and a Gemini, lol), this is an amazing thing for me. I've always found something to "do" before. Add to this that I figured I'd be at the height of my career at this point-but instead, I go from project to project. I find myself thinking "what now?" so much of the time. It's been very unsettling.

Now I'm near a place of not caring. Not in the sense of giving up, but in the sense of giving "it" up. I feel a "letting go". It's sinking in that's what I've been supposed to be doing all along. And recently, I'm feeling things shift-in small increments. I feel a new energy-an urge to emerge from this cocoon.

Today, I received an YouTube video on my FB page that sent me off to watching Kiesha Crowther aka Litle Grandmother speak. I'd like to share this 4 part video with you. It gave me renewed spirit and hope it helps you, too.

We are the strongest of the strong! :grouphug:

1. Hi, wovenpaint! :)
I also find the energies very unsettling. I guess we need to learn to ride the waves. :)

Thanks for sharing. Nice to see you!

:hug:

3. Great Woven
It sounds to me like your higher self is taking over and that it feels a little weird to not be the main sailor
at the wheel! Sounds great. I loved the video and her calm center. Best of paths to you. :applause:

7. I don't know too much
I had heard of her before this, but not any controversy. I'll have to check it out.
FWIW, the link was shared by a Lakota friend...

8. These videos were awesome!
Great message. It's time to reveal the fraud of religions, no doubt. But is everyone really a piece of GOD? What about that lunatic that shot the congress woman and killed the others? He was a sick bastard, yes! Since we think of God as light, and the source, and perfect,the killers don't seem to fall in that category of good. I find it hard to put him or Hitler, etc. in the same league.

10. Yes, we are all part of God. We are one. Think of the young man who did the
Edited on Thu Feb-17-11 06:16 PM by japple
shootings in Arizona: he was an innocent lamb at some point in his life before he went/was led horribly astray. Even Hitler, Dick Cheney, Geo. W. Bush, and all of those serial killers you hear about on cable TV were innocent children at some point before things happened to cause irreparable harm to them. That is why I can send light and love to people who have done horrible things, why I could send love and light to the wounded child in Geo. W. Bush who was so affected when his beloved little sister died. In most cases, horrible things were done to them that caused them to become what they are/were.

11. Yes, everyone--even those who have lost the plot
The people we see as "evil" are doing one of two things: they either are role-playing for a karmic reason (to learn something themselves or to move other people/society further along), or they have lost the plot and, for lack of a better term, "embraced the dark side".

Everything and everyone is of creation (God); if not, then of what?

13. This.
Yes, even someone who killed, like the guy in Arizona, are serving a purpose of waking us up to more compassion and caring. It's just a testament to exactly how much we need to be woken up; and how much things are shifting; that some of these extreme things are happening.

21. Kiesha Crowther is not Native American - she's an utter fraud.
Good message - bad messenger.

22. The new energy is of joy and co-creation.
It is indeed important to "get into" that groove, instead of sitting around remarking that the old has gone away. :hug:

Like me!!!WOOT!!!!
Another Viking Wench!

Hmmmmmm. I don't think I or the world needs any more "Leaders" though.
Something very different is coming.Or at least thats what I'm sensing at this point.

Spiritual awaking and connecting to the Tao is truly an anarchist thing to do and flow with.
It does not lend itself to leaders or followers.It just flows.

24. I am SO with you on that, Howler....
Devilgrll resurrected a post I made back in November of Little Grandmother. Not long after I posted, I read quite a few accounts that gave me the impression she is not authentic and may even be deceptive, so I haven't followed her since then.

Her messages themselves are clear and loving, as are so many others' messages, however.

We can hear these same messages if we sit still with ourselves. :)

I'm with you about the sense that we're entering a time without leaders, and without a need for leaders, especially spiritual leaders.

25. SWEET!
We both give each other confirmation then OneGrassRoot.
YAY!!!!

What I sense happening is EVERYONE is plugging into the SOURCE.
We all will be communicating,listening, and experiencing the source ourselves.
There isn't going to be any need or room for 'Leaders"

It is such a loving, benevolent, and playful thing too experience!It just doesn't need anymore "Leaders to define what is un definable but a very real phenomenon.

Gawd I just love you OneGrassRoot!:hug: :grouphug:
