KEEP ANY HOLIDAY SIMPLE TO STAY PRESENT

HOLIDAY CHEER⁠
⁠
KISS = Keep it simple, stupid.



Not at all calling you stupid, but the holiday collective seems to be. Not just November and December holidays, but the whole year seems to be wrapped up in lower vibrations when it comes to what should be celebration in the upper realms.



What can you do? Allow this Holiday Season to hold you, too. Many of us are doers -- must get it all done - types. This taxes our physical and emotional bodies. Feeling overwhelmed with too much to do, too much to see, too many places to go frazzles our insides and causes stress. Relax into this holiday season now and for the new year. Be fully present with yourself and your loved ones.⁠ And check in with yourself often to see if you're doing what is in alignment with you or not.
⁠
You have permission to take a bath with candles, put your feet up and watch a show, not bake those cookies, not lick stamps, ignore texts and emails, hug your loved ones and lean into it fully, not buy that one last gift, hug yourself and know you are enough. Bring yourself inner cheer by allowing down-time. ⁠You don't have to write thank you notes or any cards at all. You can just say, "Thanks," and let that be enough.
⁠
You have permission to notice the beauty all around you - the lights, snow, rain, trees, people, wild animals, pets, decorations, warm coffee shops, smiles from strangers, singing, church bells, and the sun and the moon.⁠
⁠
You have permission to open your heart with love, joy, honesty, faith, playfulness, celebration as well as sadness, despair, anger, fear, and doubt. ⁠
⁠
You have permission to feel all things, to receive and give, to rest and play, to be there and be isolated. ⁠
⁠
Holiday Cheer comes from within - not without. Allow yourself to have permission to feel and do what is right for you. You are loved and wanted here for what you are feeling and doing now.⁠
⁠
Happy Holiday from now and until next time.



Take care of yourself so that you can be fully embodied and fully here for yourself and others.

HOW TO ENJOY THE HOLIDAYS

HOLIDAY HEART⁠
⁠
What happens between the time when we are children, excited and fully ready for the Holidays and when we become adults, irritated and depressed by them?⁠
⁠
Hmmmm....⁠
⁠
I've been thinking about this, watching and listening to many adults grumble about family gatherings, traveling, and the holidays in general. What I've come to notice is it's a lack of forgiveness for the self and for others ⁠
⁠
Forgiveness, when we're very young, is easy. It takes about 2 seconds for a young child to be hurt, receive an apology, and move on. Adults, not so much. We tend to hold grudges, or not feel the sorry was good enough, or not want to give a sorry ourselves.⁠
⁠
So, this holiday season, instead of dreading those family gatherings -- why not look underneath that feeling and get to the root of the issue? You clear these up and the rest of your holidays will change forever for the better!⁠
⁠
Meditate on and repeat this mantra 6 times to help you open to forgiveness either for yourself or another:⁠
⁠
I'm sorry,⁠
Please forgive me,⁠
I love you,⁠
Thank you.⁠
⁠
Now, take this to a person you've hurt -- say it just like this. That's all. No big discussions as to why or how you were in the right, or they were in the wrong. Start from here. Start from NOW - and say this to them. No attachment as to what they do with this -- but just allow what comes next to happen organically. Be the one that starts forgiveness in your family and watch it take off ---- You can do this!⁠
⁠
Happy Holidays!⁠

A NEW PERSPECTIVE ON TOTEMS

TOTEM⁠S have been studied and looked at before, but a download from a deep meditation has opened me up to a new perspective on my totems. Which I'm willing to share.
⁠
Sometimes when we are younger a trauma occurs, and our soul shatters. When this happens, helpers come along to save our young-selves. They shelter those young parts that could not hold that traumatic experience alone. ⁠The gather them up and keep them safe, like a dog collecting toys in her bed.
⁠
I call these helpers and protectors TOTEMS. This is a new way of looking at the spirit animals that come to you in dreams, meditations, and cross your path in the 3D world. ⁠



This is how I came to understand my totems and what they have done to protect me.
⁠
I had a trauma at a young age. During that experience, I shattered. My energy split and raced out of my body in many different directions. Too fast for my young body to understand. As it did, my Totems caught that energy. They held onto those pieces of me, those pieces too fragile to handle the situation, and kept them safe. They held them dear until I was aware enough to integrate them back into my wholeness again.⁠
⁠
Become aware of the animals that come to you , whether in dreams, meditations, or in life. What pieces of you might they be holding for safekeeping? And are you ready to accept those back? ⁠
⁠
There are ancient rights and soul retrievals to help you with this process. We are here to guide you safely home to wholeness.



When you're ready.



You are not alone.⁠

HOW TO FIND YOUR CORE AND YOURSELF

Where is your CENTER?⁠
⁠
Knowing yourself is knowing your center. Do you know yours? If you're wondering what I'm talking about, then no, right now you don't.⁠
⁠
Your center is the place inside of you that knows. It knows what you're a YES for and it knows what you're a NO for. But sometimes we choose not to listen to it. We allow the shoulds to should all over us.⁠ We allow others to tell us what to feel, who we should be, how we should dress, and act.
⁠
How can you stop living your life for others, but be a good helpful person, and strongly aligned with your center?⁠



This starts with recognizing your goodness. That you are Holy. That you are a loving and kind person - no matter the mistakes you might have made.
⁠
Find yourself. This is essential - your number one job to do and the toughest thing to try because we are torn in many directions by multiple obligations and people which pull us from our core. ⁠And without much training from elders, we are confused and don't know how to remain stable in our own core when someone else needs, directs, or becomes aggressive toward us.
⁠
So, how do you find yourself? ⁠


Meditate. Meditate. Meditate - then Meditate more. I mean it. No more I-don't-have-time-for-that excuses. You MUST meditate - Meditate with openness, not expectations. ⁠This is will truly be a turning point for you in your quest for self-understanding and self-love. Meditate (or as some call it, Pray) with love, openness, thankfulness, and ask for guidance.
⁠

This is not to be confused with asking for someone outside of yourself to fix your life. That is a childish way of living in the world and you are ready to move on from that first teaching. Praying or Meditating in a mature way is to ask yourself what you need, to rely on yourself for love and guidance, to mature into your ancient knowings and relate them to your life in the NOW.


Once you meditate and have your core - start to ask it questions to re-introduce yourself to it. Start with easy ones "Hi, core, Angie here, do I want gluten free pizza?" If I lean back it's a NO. "Or fish for dinner?" If I lean forward it's a YES. Play with this until you feel you know it's yes and no ways of communicating with you.⁠
⁠
Then honor it.



You are important. I promise you, that if you continue to ignore your core, you will feel drained, get sick, depressed, and resentful toward others. This in no way helps anyone. Know your NO's and honor them just as you honor your YES's. You will be a happier person and in turn you will treat others with kindness. ⁠
⁠
You are worth knowing yourself and honoring yourself.⁠

CURIOUS ABOUT SACRED 12 AROUND THE ONE?

12 around the 1⁠



When you start to notice this sacred geometry, you'll see it everywhere. And you'll wonder where your awareness has been for so long.
⁠
12 around 1 is source consciousness. 12 = 1 + 2 = 3 the Holy Trinity.⁠
⁠
There are many places where we see the number 12 around the 1. Think clocks for a great visual -- 12 hours around the mid circle. Then think of the zodiac, the months in a year, and the flower of life. ⁠
⁠
12 around the 1 is seen in artwork and has been created in ancient architecture. ⁠It's in old church stained glass windows. You'll find it around the world, hidden in plain sight.
⁠
Question what 12 around the 1 means to you. Meditate on it, even if you don't quite understand it's meaning yet. When I first heard of 12 around 1, I was in Paris, studying with Shamans, Teachers, and Facilitators from many countries. They spoke extensively on the 12 around 1 sacred geometry and the flower of life. ⁠
⁠
This is just a quick peek under the blanket of our illusionary reality -- but once it gets in your head, I promise, you'll see 12 around 1 everywhere.
⁠
There are clues to your purpose all around you -- and bigger clues still to the Universe. It's all a game -- start searching for the clues.



Have fun!!⁠

ARE YOU IN THE FLOW?

There is a poetic flow to life, and we're all around it. Some of us are in the river, floating down the stream merrily. Some are on the shore watching others pass them by. Some are in the depths, spinning and gasping for breath. And some are at the bottom, forgotten how to swim. ⁠
⁠
It doesn't matter where you are in the flow right now. Just know you're in it. Take a chance and believe. Once you're aware that there is a flow to life, to creativity, to everything....then you can figure out where you are, and plan where you want to go.⁠
⁠
But staying ignorant, putting your head in the sand, pretending you're okay, and this is what life's about -- is just wasting your precious time. ⁠
⁠
You've got about 100+/- years here -- do you like what you're doing? How you're feeling? Who you are? Have you questioned that yet? If not, why? Are you afraid? Has someone told you not to question? If so, that's a big WHY to ask. ⁠
⁠
The more we wake up to the amount of creative energy life force we each have locked up inside of us, and release it with loving kindness, the more love and freedom the human race will achieve. The more this place will return to its original purpose---the garden and we the stewards. Where all knowledge is shared, all creativity enjoyed, and all beings respected and honored. ⁠
⁠
So, start asking the questions, especially the ones that scare you....because there's a reason why you've been told not to ask. There's a reason why you're being treated like you can't take care of yourself. There's a reason why you're made to think how to eat, sleep, work, make love, and live a certain way. Wake up! You weren't meant to live your life in a box with other half alive people doing what you're told to do and buying what you're told to buy. ⁠



Question why, how, when, who, where! Question everything - especially those things deemed wrong, illegal, immoral, ignorant, or dark. Question the "unlucky" 13's - black cats - moon rituals - wolves - plant medicines - cycles - blood - and rituals, and all those things that have been hidden or taken from you and your tribes.



Question anything that makes you feel something - especially if it makes you feel worried, ashamed, angry, excited, new, alive, and confused.
⁠
Choose freedom!⁠ You are here to live --- by your feelings, emotions, body clock, and senses - not someone else's.

WRATH AS BLESSING

WRATH
⁠
The word may make us tremble and run. But what is wrath at its core? ⁠
⁠
Wrath is fierce compassionate anger. Wrath can change the course of mankind. Wrath pierces the silence and darkness with pure lit justice. ⁠



Like a bolt of lightning from a pitch-black sky - wrath cuts through everything with piercing perfection.
⁠
Wrath when wielded with honor and respect is pure creation and balanced truth. Wrath when ignored and shut down leads to wild destruction and chaotic vengeance.⁠
⁠
You've felt wrath at injustices you've witnessed in your lifetime. You've seen it on a human face filled with fury and tears. You've witnessed it as it is released on a society's intolerable lies. Wrath stands for the naked and pure truth. Now, is the time to stop ignoring the call to stand up and speak out. Shine light upon your dark shadows, your traumas, the injustice you've experienced. Transmute that shit!⁠
⁠
Once out of the shadows and into the light, wrath compels us to forgive, change, create anew, empower and stand for ourselves and others. ⁠
⁠
You are worthy of your innocence. You are worthy of truth and justice. Reclaim it through your wrath. No more hiding. No more ignoring. Say what needs to be said, and allow your body to heal. ⁠
⁠
When you stand-up, when you wield wrath with honor and respect, you open the door for others to come back to life. ⁠And dark and lower vibrational energies can no longer feed from your light because it is pure.
⁠
Thank you for doing this work!⁠
