Evolve with music.

I remember as a kid how much I enjoyed listening to music while busy with my homework and that has never changed. Now I work, write, paint, exercise and cook to music, it helps me both to focus and to be creative. Because of my multi cultural background I enjoy listening to all kinds of music. What music I choose to listen to depends a lot on my mood. If I feel down and I want to feel better, I play a lively CD with a nice dance beat that puts me in a good mood immediately because my body responds instinctively to the beat of the music. If I feel scattered and beside myself, I play Bach, Satie or Mozart and I can instantly feel my mind relax. Sometimes I feel nostalgic for my roots and then my soul calls for Arabic or Indian music, or some other music that reminds me of happy special moments in my life, so I listen to that for a while to soothe my soul and without fail it works wonders.

The use of sound and music is the most ancient healing technique. It was practiced in the ancient mystery schools of Tibet, India, Egypt, China, Athens and Rome for tens of thousands of years. Over the past centuries much of this information disappeared in the west but  it is now re-emerging.

From time immemorial, music has been a part of the Indian culture. Music is an age-old part of Ayurveda, the holistic Indian science that promotes a happy and healthy lifestyle. The curative power of music emanates from the resonance of certain ragas on hormonal and glandular functions, which produce secretions that keep the body balanced and infection free. There’s music for indigestion, music to build up self-confidence, music for insomnia, to heal gallstones and arthritis, for anxiety and for any ailment you can think of.

Music is capable of improving health and concentration, promoting peace and happiness. It is important, however, to know the method and the duration for which music therapy is to be administered. Listening to music helps control negative aspects of our personality like worry or anger. It can also cure headaches, abdominal pain, strokes, stuttering and tension. Music therapy is one of the most effective ways of controlling emotions, blood pressure and restoring the functions of the liver.

It is also believed that music stimulates the pituitary gland, whose secretions affect the nervous system and the flow of blood. To be healed by music, it is necessary to vibrate the cells of the body, for it is through these vibrations that the person’s consciousness can be changed to promote good health. The right kind of music helps one to relax and to refresh. The right kind of light music also increases efficiency while working. This reminds me of a friend who enjoyed listening to what was known in the 80s as background music that was played in lifts in all hotels in the US. I personally found it boring monotonous music as it lulled one into docility. Being docile and being relaxed are two totally different states of being.

Modern western science and medicine has now rediscovered the healing powers of music and music therapy is now an accepted form of treatment within orthodox medical practice. Edgar Cayce, the sleeping prophet, who healed thousands of people while in a trance state, said that ‘music is the medicine of the future’. I read somewhere that what we might expect in the future are tonal spas where we can rejuvenate our vibrational fields. Perhaps even chanting centres in schools and work places? Now that sounds like music to my ears!

Until that becomes reality, you can in the meantime find music on you tube to activate and to raise the frequency of your DNA, your pituitary gland, your pineal gland and much more. All with the goal to assist you to evolve.

Be careful though what you listen to, not everything is good or authentic on you tube. Whatever music you listen to should energize you and make you feel good.

Plato wrote: Music is a moral law. It gives soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, a charm to sadness, gaiety and life to everything.

I agree with him wholeheartedly.

Here’s a website that I can recommend where you can visit to find out more about healing solfeggio frequencies to download

Here’s something very different. Reminds me of a didgeridoo seminar I attended many years ago that I found extremely healing.

And here’s an excellent book to read by a journalist and author friend of mine in India. I think everyone should read this educational book about music detailing the healing powers of sound and music.

The miracle of Music Therapy by Rajendar Menen available from

Now a few quick words about 2012! No matter what your thoughts and beliefs are or aren’t about the Mayan prophecy, spirituality or religion, about the chaos and widespread evil and violence all over the globe, I think that you will agree  with me on one point and that is something has to change, that we cannot go on like this, on a self-destruct mission.

My personal belief is we are born to evolve. It is a never ending upwards journey for humankind and for all life on earth. For me that is the reason and the meaning of life. Consciousness Evolution. The whole planet and everything on it is constantly evolving and this has been going on for eons. History tells us that there are certain stages and major cycles of cosmic and planetary changes and we are right now going through such a major cycle change. We are actually in the midst of this and in my opinion it’s not coming to an abrupt end with 2012 but will continue until we reach what is known as the tipping point, when the collective shift to higher consciousness has been achieved by 10% of the world population. Whatever chaos and damage happens until then, other than natural catastrophes, we humankind are responsible for solely.

What does that mean? In a few words it means that this is the new millennium and we are all creators of the Golden Age of Love Peace and Harmony as the earth is shifting to a higher vibration and frequency and everyone and everything is vibrating faster along with it. You must notice too just how fast time is passing by. No, it’s not your imagination. It’s real. Evolve to help usher in the new golden age, there is no going back, so we can only go forward to meet our destiny as a human family. Make this year the year where you will pick up a spiritual practice to your liking to help you evolve beyond your ego to bring you nearer to your Higher Self and to the Spirit.

I wish you a year full of joy, as you vibrate with higher consciousness in harmony with the heartbeat of planet earth! Treat yourself to healing music!

Pamper yourself and join the consciousness evolution revolution.

What is my Life Purpose? You might be one of many who wonder through life in of search of some Guru, Master or Psychic to give them an answer to this question. The answer to that vital question is not as mysterious as it sounds, and as you’ve most probably heard or read several times already from the true gurus, the only place where you will find the answer is within your own heart.

YOU are unique. Keep that in mind as you explore and discover your uniqueness and your true identity and you’ll find your life purpose. We all have to live with and come to terms with who we are through our birth, our family, religious beliefs or non-beliefs and the environment we grow up with. It is futile to deny who we are or where we come from. That is our foundation given at birth, after that it is up to us what we do with it and how we choose to build our future. After a certain age, hopefully, you learn to take responsibility for yourself, for your thoughts and actions. As to why we are here? We are here simply to live our life the best way we can, to be the best we can be, to the best of our abilities, and this state of ‘being’ we achieve by ‘doing’!  To be doesn’t necessarily mean, join an ashram and sit and do nothing but chant and meditate or to spend the rest of your life selflessly feeding the hungry. We can ‘be’ when we do something that we believe in and love doing with all our heart and soul. Whatever it is, we do it with great passion and we create whatever we can envision as being possible that fits within our individual lifestyle. We integrate our desire, will, imagination, joy and purpose with our being. In short we make the best out of any situation that we find ourselves in, do whatever we can with great joy and enthusiasm, always in alignment and in harmony with our inner Self. We do it, therefore, effortlessly with joy and that is a true state of being. The keyword is Joy!

Whatever you feel deep within you as your calling, your inner deep most secret desire, no matter how farfetched it may seem to you, you can be sure that you have whatever talent it requires within you to carry it through to success. So go for it. You can be sure that that is where you can contribute the most to the world. When what you do doesn’t seem like work for you but fun, bringing you happiness, occupying your whole heart, then that is your life purpose. And when you follow your heart you can be assured that you will succeed and with that you will be helping and serving the world around you.

When you do what you love to do and you can be your true authentic self, you discover and unleash your inner power,  you experience pure magic. Many make a mistake of sacrificing their whole life to serve others, which might be fine for some because it is indeed their true calling, but this is not for everyone. You can help others much more if you empower yourself and do what you love to do in line with your own talents. This energizes you and gives you power and perhaps even wealth, so you can include helping others and your service to mankind in some way or another.  Some live life full of fear so they choose the safe road and settle for security, doing something that leaves them despondent, void of passion and love for life. Where there is no passion there is no energy and no enthusiasm so you can’t possibly be doing your best and you are even less in a position to help others.

Some of us might not recognize our calling consciously, but through trial and error we will eventually discover it. It usually shows itself as a little whisper inside us. If we pay attention we’ll hear it and we would do well to listen to it, for if we ignore it we would be living only half a life. When we have a desire to do something, whatever that maybe, we can be just as sure that we have the power to do it. There is a genius hidden in every one of us. Did you know that we are nearest to God when we feel desire, passion, and have the will to do. We are nearest to God when we laugh and feel pure joy. That is a true state of being.

Did you know that it is much harder to fail than it is to succeed? Because to be successful all you have to do is to stop putting obstacles in your path, stop making excuses and just let go. Yes, you just have to let yourself go. Let go your limiting conditioned thoughts and walk yourself to success, it’s much easier. When you resist you are blocking abundance and the flow of energy coming your way. Being spiritual means being honest with ourselves of who we really are, it means experiencing abundance and joy in our life. Stop resisting and sabotaging yourself, stop blocking abundance coming into your life, let the energy flow through you, let it flow, let go and just be.

Why don’t you take a little time out alone and in silence over the coming holidays to discover your inner desires. Listen to that little inner voice. Listen to your heart as it speaks to you. Listen to God speaking to you through your heart.

I wish you and your family happy holidays and inner peace, good health and joy in the coming year 2012. Expect the best of everything and you will get it. And join me in feeling grateful for what we have and in sending healing energies to all those who are suffering right this moment all around the world and who are not as lucky as we are. Keep in mind that we can all help the world and humanity to heal if we individually do our little bit right where we are with those closest around us. That is how good energy spreads from one person to another. See yourself as a centre from whom good energy spreads out, act and do accordingly. Smile and spread goodness around you and wish it to spread all over the planet. Our earth and our human family is going through a tough time in these unique times that we are experiencing, don’t turn away, join in to help one and all make the transition safely as we enter into new higher frequencies and dimensions of being.

By the way – did I tell you the result of my book marketing campaign? Well, my book Cosmic and Universal Laws was on the bestseller list nr.4 at amazon.com, in the category Philosophy, for over five days. So my small effort showed a result and this definitely encourages me to continue with my marketing efforts for all my books. It involved an investment of  money of course, but much more of my time and energy over five months solid, but it was well worth it. How does the saying go again? No pain, no gain. Nothing happens unless YOU make it happen. Signing off until next year, which I assure you, will not be the end of the world! Bestselling author Margo Kirtikar!

I was in Lausanne Metro station yesterday waiting for the metro to take me up the hill. Lausanne is known as a university town built on a hill, everything goes up or down, there is hardly anywhere where you can walk straight! You’re either climbing or going down towards the lake! Torture for the feet believe me! The underground station which has recently been renovated is super modern, clean, light, and everything works quietly and efficiently Swiss style. It takes you from the lake all the way up the hill to the top.  When I went down the wide stairs I spotted a young sporty well dressed attractive man, sitting on one of the benches, it took me only a second to realize that he was hopelessly drunk. I stood as far as I could away from him, also because of the nauseating faint alcohol smell that filled the air around him. I watched from the corner of my eye how he attempted with difficulty to open yet another beer can to drink. There were about four other empty beer cans on the bench next to him. There was a young woman standing to my left, we exchanged looks of contempt without saying a word. It was 10.00 am in the morning! I figured he must have partied all night and he was on his way home. I admit I did not feel any sympathy for him at all, thinking to myself, what a waste and how typical of young irresponsible men today!

Just after I had entered the metro station, another elderly woman with short grey hair entered the scene, she went straight to the same bench where  the young man was sitting and she settled at the other end of the bench beside him. She watched him for a second and turned towards him. I, the woman next to me and another man were looking with curiosity at her. As she watched him battling with yet another beer can unable to focus to open it, she spoke to him very gently. We could all hear her clearly. ‘Young man’, she said, in a very  gentle voice smiling, ‘you’ve had more than enough to drink, don’t you think you should stop drinking now?’ He paid no heed to her but she continued ‘look at you’, she said always in her gentle melodious French, ‘you’re a handsome young man, why are you doing this to yourself? Do you have problems? You should really stop drinking now and go home  to sleep.’ And she continued repeating nice words, ever so gently, oblivious to the rest of us watching. At first the young man, who had his eyes half closed, swaying in his seat, did not react at all, but soon as she kept on talking to him, he turned to her to look at her. He opened the can of beer can, turned his head back as he emptied half of it into his mouth letting the rest all down his face, neck and shirt!  ’Oh oh,’ she said again softly, ‘now you’ve really messed up your shirt, what a shame, such a nice shirt too!’ ‘You know you should really try to pull yourself together, you look like an intelligent young man, you’re well dressed, you’re handsome too. You seem like a lovely nice young man,’ Now he really looked at her, she continued encouraged and smiled at him. ‘Look at you, such a handsome young man, you are too.’ He got up slowly then and swayed and zigzagged across to find a garbage bin, he threw the half full beer can into it, without missing it! He almost fell on top of the woman next to me, before he found his way back to the bench. Now he bent forward put his head in his hands and cried, as he heard  the woman continue to say ‘ good boy, you don’t need to drink any more. You need to talk. Do you have a problem? Talk to me!’ As she continued to speak to him in her ever gentle sing song voice,  I could see how he pulled himself together, sat up a little straighter, opened his eyes wiping away the tears,  and turned to her and said something we couldn’t hear. But then she repeated and said ‘oh, you are from Syria and you have your family there? and I am so sorry to hear that, of course you are worried about them with the political problems going on there…..’ I could not get the rest of it because just then the metro arrived and slid quietly into place, the doors opened, people left, and the rest of us and by this time there were quite a few of us waiting to get in, as civilized as we are here, quietly and slowly  piled into the metro one after the other. The older woman stood up to make her way to the open doors, she looked back and said to him, ‘come on, come on young man, get on the metro, you must have somewhere to go.’ We were all standing, the doors were still open, he was still on the bench looking at her, she wouldn’t give up she kept beckoning with her hand inviting him to join her! Suddenly he stood up, and walked quickly to slide into the cabin before the doors shut. He stood next to her and gave her a huge smile. I could literally see the heavy burden he was carrying leave him, he was so grateful to her for her kindness and for not believing the worst of him. She beamed at him happy. ‘There you go, you see, everything will be alright. You’ll see. You are going to be just fine.’ She turned to me and whispered, ‘the poor boy is worried about his family’ I said ‘Yes, I see that, and you were so gentle with him, that’s really very nice!’ ‘Of course that’s the least I could do.’ she said. We had arrived at the next stop, my stop, the doors opened, I stepped out, I watched from the corner of my eyes, how she helped him sit down as she stood by him. The train continued to climb up the hill and I walked up the stairs into the sunshine totally transformed by what I had just experienced. Such compassion, such gentleness, such kindness and understanding from one human to another a total stranger!  I am sure it touched all of us who were there that morning during those five minutes! I thought he had partied all night when in fact he was drunk because he was so worried and in pain for not knowing what was happening to his family in Syria. I felt quite ashamed for presuming the worst and judging without knowing. I felt humble and thankful that there were angels after all to remind us that kindness and compassion can work miracles. For sure she was an angel! How many desperate souls in pain are around who are in need of a few gentle words to make them feel better. That’s all it takes a few gentle words of kindness to show compassion and understanding. These five minutes are etched forever into my soul.

It is said that Patience is the mother of virtue! And that patience and wisdom and courage go hand in hand.  Ask yourself these question and answer them honestly.  Exactly how patient a person are you?

Are you patient with yourself, I mean do you take the time to learn about things, to take time to spoil yourself caring about your health? Are you patient with life? Are you patient with your family? How about your partner who sometimes gets on your nerves, and your noisy children who never listen or older kids who insist on knowing it all better than you? Or what about your aging parents who perhaps with wisdom or necessity have learned to take life less seriously and move more slowly than they used to when they were your age? What about your siblings and your relatives? How about your work colleagues or neighbors who think differently to you?  Do you have patience and understanding for them all?

I’ve created a short eBook about Patience which is free to download on my website http://www.margokirtikar.com

Feel free to visit my website to download the eBook and tell your friends about it.

Our whole goal in life is to develop and cultivate our virtues and minimize our vices so that we can become better more productive and useful human beings.  We evolve always to something bigger and beter.  This is a lifelong never ending task. The moment you stop moving forward and improving yourself, you stagnate and move backwards while the rest of the world is moving forward. Think about that.

Patience is an attractive attribute, it commands respect and appreciation from others when it is recognized. Next time observe an impatient person’s behavior. Don’t they look ridiculous, being angry about things that they cannot control? Like traffic jams or waiting in line?

It is said rewards come to those who are patient!  Read my eBook.

http://www.margokirtikar.com

The Law of Patience by the way is mentioned in my book COSMIC AND UNIVERSAL LAWS, Infinite Laws for a Happy and Prosperous Life, available with amazon.com

Be well, be wise, be understanding, be courageous, be patient !

21 September 2011

I read this article today in the local news and it prompts me to share my thoughts with you!

Quote – ZURICH, SWITZERLAND – A 27-year-old woman who in 2006 shook a child to death, has been given a 10-year-prison sentence. She is the third person involved in a child abuse case that involved her partner and his other female companion and three of the man’s children. They were all living together as a group with religious convictions, with the man dictating severe punishments that eventually led to the incident where one of the children died. The man and his other partner were earlier sentenced to 9.5 and 7 years for their part in the string of abuses. TSR notes that a Swiss study showed in 2008 that there had been eight deaths and 50 hospitalizations in five years for shaking babies and young children, with the public not fully aware of the damage that can be caused to a young child by shaking it. - Unquote

And this happened here in peaceful sophisticated Switzerland! Well, latest reports show that crime and violence in Switzerland is on the rise and on the same scale  now as cities everywhere else in the world. This is the other side of the coin of intoxicating globalization and open borders where anyone and everyone can cross over from one country to another without having to identify themselves. Although this presents a huge problem for little quiet Switzerland and there is talk about the people voting again whether to close the borders again, (remember the minarets story?) it is not the issue that I want to address here.

The people involved in this child scandal are Swiss and not foreigners. Home violence in Switzerland has always existed, but it was always hush hush. One did not speak about it let alone read about it in the papers and if it was mentioned at all it would be just a little paragraph in a few words, easy to miss, somewhere on the inside of a newspaper never giving the full story. More often than not crime was not reported openly. We are supposedly a civilized educated wealthy modern country. It is tragic for everyone concerned in this story. Sheer ignorance or stubbornness of the adults who hang on to religious fanatic beliefs, the never ending story of the abusive possessive male who dominates, controls and punishes (!) women and children, the dependent, needy, helpless or weak women with no self love or self esteem, who know no better than to subject themselves to such humiliation and continuous abuse, and worse of all, the unfortunate innocent children born into such environments.

What do you think when you read such a story? I can only speak for myself and this is what I think. I think about belief, stress, frustration and anger! All of which breeds violence. Because we are all subjected to all of that at one time or another.

First of all I’ll address belief. Blind belief in anything be that of religious nature or otherwise is dangerous. It shrinks the mind and limits the horizons of the imagination and life view of the fanatic believer who is trapped in his or her own little world that is more like a cage! History has shown that time and time again. Belief is good as long as it doesn’t go out of balance, if it does go into the  extreme, becomes fanaticism, it flips to the negative and the belief becomes dangerous and destructive. Two examples on a large scale, Nazicism and modern day Terrorism, whoever they may be. On an individual scale like the story above. As long as everything stays within balance and reason, as long as the belief serves the believer as an anchor, a healthy cornerstone where one can recharge oneself with energy, where one can find peace, to feel free, and share this freedom of spirit with others as well, then it’s a healthy belief. Limiting, confining, restricting, fanatic belief that does not allow free thought, growth and expansion goes against the laws of nature and is, therefore, dangerous for oneself and for others.

Stressful situations be that in private or professional lives, physical, emotional, mental, economical, political, whatever, are programmed for explosion! We’ve seen that lately with the many revolts against governments all over the eastern countries! Stress leads to frustration that brews inside of the victims and turns into anger and rage and ultimately results in violence!  But I’d like to narrow it down now to the individual. This can happen in one’s personal life and also at the work place. To be exposed to stress for a longer period of time, be that privately, as in an unhappy relationship, or professionally at work, inevitably ends up in serious illnesses where the physical body stores the negative energy which then turns inwardly and starts attacking the cells and organs, or then outwardly in violent acts such as the story above and worse. Frustration when exposed to constant stressful situations develops into anger, and then into sheer rage where one loses all reason! So what does one do? The woman in the story frustrated with herself and her life, could not cope with the crying child, she’s out of her mind, so she shakes the child to death! Why did she let it go so far? Why did she lose control of her senses? Is it fear, jealousy or exhaustion, is it helplessness, dependency, despondency or sheer ignorance? Whatever, it is both understandable and outrageous, for the onlooker, and there is no excuse.

Sometimes you can control your environment and sometimes you can’t. Only you can give the answer to that as every story is unique. What you can do though is you can protect yourself from stress. What you can definitely control is yourself and how you react to any situation. You can control your frustrations, any anger or rage you feel inside you. Keep reminding yourself these negative energies that you are feeling not only destroy you physically and emotionally but also have an effect on your mental state of mind and contribute to making your relations with your environment even worse than it is. Harboring frustrations and anger changes your attitude towards everyone around you. It effects the way you behave, the way you drive, the way you speak, the way you think, the way you relate to your loved ones and to your work colleagues. A popular belief is that one can keep business and private lives separate, I personally have never believed in that. I believe that this causes only more damage when one has to be a split personality, be one personality at work and another at home. There is no inner balance there and so it is doomed to failure, it is a program to self destruct.

More often than not stress is self inflicted too, strange as it sounds, it all depends on how we think.

Stop and question yourself when you do feel frustrated or angry. See which of these questions resonates with you and your situation!

Why do I feel so frustrated? Can I do something about it? Am I imagining things? Am I exaggerating things? Am I contributing to the conflict ? Can I change the way I feel? Is it that important that I get myself so agitated? Is it worth for me to lose my senses, to lose my health? Do I need more sleep? Do I need to relax? Maybe I should activate my sense of humor and learn to laugh more! Am I really unhappy where I am now in my life and should I make a change right now? If yes, what is stopping me? Am I afraid of change? Am I seeing facts or fiction? Am I being insensitive and letting out my frustration and anger on others around me? Am I being fair to myself or others? Am I making myself miserable? Am I being honest with myself?

The more you remember to train yourself to ask yourself these questions, the more you can gain distance to the conflict at hand, which allows you to look at the situation with detachment, with awareness and with reason. It’s one way to avoid stress, frustration and anger.  All three you can really do without if you want to be a genuinely happy person. In the end it all comes back to you. Your happiness or unhappiness is in your hands. It is your choice.

Watching the news, something I do not do that often these days, prompted me to make this blog entry. The US in financial crisis! Can you imagine what that would mean for the whole world? If people don’t get their social security paid out, can you imagine the riots that will follow? It was even mentioned that maybe the US soldiers won’t receive their pay checks and if that ever happens, what do you think will follow? Do you think the soldiers will put their arms down and refuse to fight! Or perhaps wonders upon wonders, the Democrats and the Republicans put their differences aside and decide to work together in the interest of the country and the US  population, rather than squabble like egocentric children while the country and its people go down the drain?

Demonstrations in Israel! Wow! The last place I expected to see demonstrations. The Israeli people are demonstrating about the rising cost of living, how the gap between the rich and the poor is increasing, but isn’t that the case for everyone else all over the world too? Aren’t we all feeling the pinch? The rich might suffer because they can afford less luxury gadgets but the less affluent and the very poor, they are the ones who are really suffering because they have nothing to fall back on. No savings, no income, no jobs, no home, nothing and worse than all, for many no food on the table. What do you think will happen when the masses are hungry and suffering? Don’t we all know from history that usually this leads to mass revolts? And with the sheer number of populace revolting, no matter where, this is a scary scenario.

Violence in Syria, so many killed, so many injured and so many disappear daily! In spite of the peaceful revolution and the ousting of their dictator the Egyptians haven’t found peace yet, nor have the Libyans who still have their dictator and so many in other countries likewise. Famine in Africa makes one wonder what is the meaning of life when so many are born into such drastic hopeless situations and what’s more shocking you can actually hear it mentioned on CNN the famine in Africa is man made! Does that mean that there is some truth to the rumor of artificially reducing world population after all? And what about the recent tragedy in Norway, how could such a monstrous act be in such a peaceful modern country with an intelligent educated population. How twisted can a man’s mind be to be planning such monstrosity for nearly nine years and no one noticed anything wrong about him?

Why am I going on and on about today’s news of the world, because for me it confirms one important fact that I’ve been blogging about for some time. The same thing many others who are aware, speak about too. I’m speaking cosmic energies, the energies of the ages, new age energies, changes of the quality of energies. Call it what you like it still remains the same. We are dealing here with rays of cosmic energies and with the fact that we humans are all about energy so if you put two and two together the insanity of the world that we are experiencing might begin to make sense to you. You remember the talk about the changing of the ages, the Pisces to the Aquarius age?  Hardly anyone mentions that any more because we’ve moved on from there to the Mayan calendar and what that might mean for the world. Now we talk about higher frequencies, higher vibrations, time escalation, transforming our physical bodies to light bodies and ascension.

You see the energies of the Pisces age of the past two thousand years, supported corruption, aggressiveness and all that fell under the banner of negative energies. The pathological side of the masculine energy reigned, dominated and thrived with wars and violence. Women and feminine energies were suppressed. Not so in the Aquarian age. The new age is all about nurturing energies, about harmony, peace, unity and cooperation. It’s a feminine energy. As you will have noticed in the past decade, women’s voices all over the world are being heard empowering women more and more. This will eventually balance things out because the new age is about merging the good qualities of both the masculine and feminine energies. This will be more about goodwill, fairness and win/win situation for all concerned.

So what has that to do with these messy, chaotic, painful, violent times that we are going through? The answer is everything. That is exactly why we have been experiencing pain, suffering and turmoil instigated by man or by nature. Yes natural disasters are also a part of these energy changes. Hurricanes, earthquakes, Tsunamis, as well as explosion of diseases, wars and mass and individual violence, all of that has to do with the changes of energies. Haven’t you noticed how horrific acts of abuse on every level, economical, political, sexual, are suddenly being exposed? Nothing remains hidden any more. In a matter of seconds exposure is transmitted to the world at large through the web and no one is able to stop it.

What we are going through with all those manifestations are the pangs of labor experienced before giving birth. Just as a woman feels excruciating labor pains before giving birth to a child, the earth and we humans and all living beings, are going through this experience together, before the birth of the new age. We are actually going through the process and the painful experience of the changes of the ages, a new world emerging as the old world slowly dies away.

As this is happening there is an overlap of energies as one age is on the way out and the new age is ushered in. This overlap of conflicting energies can cause chaos in people’s minds and plays havoc with their emotions! Remember we are all energy too and it depends very much on what type of energy we have as to how we respond to the new energies that affect us. If we have been preparing ourselves by eliminating all negativity from our system, we have it much easier to welcome the new energy frequencies in, as we go with the flow, responding with open arms, with joy, awareness and understanding.

But for those who are resisting the new energies and still struggling with negative energies, such as anger, hate, fear, resentments and other similar selfish traits they can become very confused with an inner battle raging inside them both mentally and emotionally. Now if their negative traits outweigh the positive then they can turn violent and destructive or become physically very ill. If their positive side outweighs the negative they have a chance of recognizing their inner battle, to accept it and to do something about transforming themselves without any danger for themselves or others. In short it’s like this. The new energies surrounding us at the present time and flowing through us, magnify whatever emotions and mental thoughts we have, be those positive or negative. Energy is neutral remember. The positive or the negative expresses itself much stronger through us. The result if it tips too much to the negative is chaotic and explains the violence that is rampant, the fanaticism and extremism that we are actually witnessing be that left or right.

Spiritual awareness has spread widely and accelerated over the past decade all over the world. Have you been wondering why? It has nothing to do with religion or a belief in God as some people misunderstand and focus on religions. It has to do more with self awareness, mind expansion, consciousness and awareness of other dimensions of being. All training of self development, coaching, spiritual teachings, and self help books, has to do with letting go of the past, shifting our perception from materialism to spiritualism, getting rid of negative habits, controlling our emotions and thoughts, promoting joy, compassion and love. All of which is nothing but preparation for the shift of energies.

Well, here’s the explanation for that in a nutshell. The new energies do not tolerate the aggressive, destructive and negative any more. No one can get away with anything negative and harmful any more. Everything will be exposed much sooner rather than later. So to protect yourself and to prepare yourself it’s best to clear out the old negative energies, and welcome the new energies of the new age. It makes our lives much easier. We can experience the transformation more smoothly. We can better go with the flow if we live our daily life in harmony, in unity, in cooperation, in compassionate interaction with everyone around us. This is not empty nice talk, this is our reality in this present time that we are living in. You have to live it to experience it. The energies around us are dynamic, meaning that whereas in the past in accordance with the universal law of Cause and Effect, it took years perhaps to see a reaction, an effect to a cause, today we are living in energies that give us the effect back almost immediately. If you have dark thoughts and beliefs your reality will mirror that darkness and if you have the opposite of that then your reality will be full of light and joy. That is why we call it the age of miracles and you can be a magician. It’s your thoughts, your most inner deepest thoughts and beliefs that create your life and only you are able to change that. What more the new energies allow you to do just that, change in an instant. The universe is willing to work with you if you only acknowledge and will it to be so. We can change the world by changing ourselves individually and every one of us counts no matter who we are. You must be clear in your intentions and your wishes and then speak loud and clear to the universe, to your higher self, to your guardian angel, as you would speak to a friend. You’ll be astonished how quickly the universe will respond.

It is futile therefore to feel fear and despair and to wait for the end of the world. Try to find the good news instead that are manifesting all over the world every single day that are taking us forward towards a brighter future. Feel the joy, the hope, the compassion and the love spreading around us and be  a part of and dance with that energy.
