October 14, 2008, Full Moon in Aries
Moon full at 4:02PM Eastern Daylight Time


Like sunlight shining
Through a window, vision shines
Through me to the world

I live in the joy
That is flowing from my soul
Riding the currents


What's Happening?

The fiery nature of Aries brings intensity to this Full Moon in an already intense time. Structure is now giving way to flow as the changes in our world continue. The watery Moon and fire energy combine to produce the steam that purifies and releases us from the past. We continue to move into the uncharted waters of the new way, shedding the old skins and patterns that no longer work. What must you become for the new way to live through you?


I am the new way
Living, breathing, and being
What will I create?

Pathway to the Stars: Entering the Circle of the Soul

Mystery School takes us on a journey to higher consciousness and the embodiment of the divine energy that we are. A prerequisite to using the laws of the universe, such as the Law of Attraction, in a conscious and deliberate way, is to be in alignment with your Higher Self or Soul. Manifestation from a lower level of consciousness usually brings us more lessons on mastering ourselves rather than the result that we desire. This course helps you to master each level of consciousness so that you may become a more conscious creator in your life.

This Mystery School course consists of five lessons. Each lesson includes written material with illustrations for study, a lecture, meditation exercises, homework that is emailed to Heron, and discussions questions for the discussion board.

Everyone taking the course has access to the Discussion Group so opportunity is available to connect with others who are studying the same Material. You may work through the lessons at your own pace.

Lesson 1 - Circles of Consciousness
Lesson 2 - Mastering the Circle of the Mind
Lesson 3 - Mastering the Circle of the Heart
Lesson 4 - Mastering the Circle of the Soul
Lesson 5 - Living from Awareness

Stalking awareness
Is like looking for water
While swimming in it



Ritual


Creating with Nature - One of the wonderful things to do this time of year is to get outside and connect with nature. This "letting go" part of the cycle carries much energy to empower our visions and dreams. During the day, go outside and pick up leaves, stones, twigs, pinecones, flowers, etc and with them create a picture that uses the elements of nature to bring a resonance of joy. For example while I was walking, I took leaves from yellow to dark red and arranged them by color in the curve of a rock. At the bottom was a white piece of granite. Once created, visit this art during the light of the full moon and feel its vibration.

Create with nature
Beautiful pictures of joy
Bathed in the moonlight




Meditation Exercise

Images that Empower - Get into a comfortable position and take a few deep breaths to relax. Breathe a root down into the ground and leaves and branches up to the sky and stars. Imagine walking in the woods and smelling all the fall smells, seeing the colors, and feeling the quieting process going on in the trees. Find a nice large tree to sit under and feel how slowly it is breathing. The tree is dropping off into sleep and dreaming. Ask the tree to share with you the dream images that it is holding for you. This might take the form of colors, shapes, more detailed images, or just feeling. Notice what comes and feel the power of the vibration that these images carry. When you feel complete, journal about what came or recreate the images in some way.

Multi-tasking vs Multi-dimensionality


Linda Heron Wind

With time continuing to speed up, there are alternatives to just dancing faster and multitasking as you go. In the past multitasking - working on several things at the same time - was our solution to time going faster. Now even that becomes too complex and difficult, as we are called to simplify and be present in the moment. Our "to do" lists keep getting longer no matter how many things we attempt to do at the same time!

As consciousness shifts we are being catapulted into a new relationship with time. In the past, time extended in a linear fashion from past to present to future. A certain amount of time was required to accomplish a certain thing. Multitasking is when we layer multiple tasks over the same time period, such as making phone calls while you do your grocery list and check your email. Attention is moved quickly back and forth among the tasks in the moment. And none of the tasks get your full, undivided attention.

Multidimensionality refers to the ability to attend to many dimensions of reality in the present moment. Focus is on one task but many dimensions of consciousness feed into that one moment. As a result, the task is completed in a fraction of the time that it might be within a single dimension. In multidimensionality there is no past or future, only the present moment that is viewed from multiple levels of consciousness, all working together. We could think of multidimensionality as a vertical expansion of time while multitasking is a horizontal expansion of time. When we use multidimensional approaches in the moment, we find that things are accomplished easier, with a sense of connection and presence in the moment.

How do we use this new vibrational approach to life? Presence in the moment is, of course, necessary, but we also need to slow ourselves down and release old structures and beliefs about how we accomplish things in the world. In the moment we can then hold an awareness of the physical world, our thoughts and feelings, and a sense of spiritual connection. When we bring all of these levels into the moment, what is accomplished is far beyond what old beliefs would tell us is possible.

An example of this is one that I think we have all experienced at one time or another. Have you ever had a day where everything just flowed from one thing to another effortlessly, with synchronicities popping up just at the right time? There is a sense of being in the groove and the universe seems to line itself up for everything to be accomplished in ways you could not have imagined. What makes that happen? Somehow you entered into a magical time with all your multidimensional selves working together to accomplish things in present time. While we have all probably experienced this, it is more difficult to know how to enter it at will.

The alignment of your physical being, feelings, thoughts and spirit in the same moment takes some practice. It often begins with meditation or inspiration that creates the vibration of harmony within you. It cannot happen by trying with your physical self or with your mind. It must begin from the higher vibration of spirit and you can intentionally engage that in the moment through quieting the mind and emotions, suspending judgment, and letting go of beliefs about what is possible. When that happens you become the container through which the universal energy can flow into the world.

What prevents me from accessing my multidimensional self in the moment is worry about time and multitasking. That locks me into the physical and everything takes longer than I think it should. So if you are feeling overwhelmed and getting farther behind with your multitasking these days, try letting go of time and structure so you can access your multidimensional magician self that works outside of time and space to accomplish the "impossible."
