For(give)ness

(v) to stop feeling angry or resentful toward (someone) for an offense, flaw, or mistake.

We are so used to hearing to “forgive” those that have hurt us and betrayed our trust... But what if you took FULL ownership of this pain and betrayal? RIGHT NOW is a powerful time with many shifts happening in our planets, our environment and within oursevles. Stay aware and take notes!

This month is a great time to truly focus on your deeper feelings so you can let go of any stagnate energy that has surfaced. This is showing up purposely to help you conjure up forgiveness within yourself and to others!

When you find yourself in chaos with another person or within your self on a spiritual soul level, you have personally chosen these people to come into your life to teach you life lessons and possibly forgiveness. A great way to understand this belief system is to understand that we have two ways of teaching and being taught emotions that set our souls free of pain, and puts us into understanding the growth that can come from weighted experiences and interactions.

Here are the 2 ways:

1) If a soul has done inner work and has learned & grown from their past experiences, they will come to teach you forgiveness to encourage and help YOU forgive a past pain.

2) If a soul has not done their work, they will teach you by hurting you so you can eventually understand and learn to truly forgive.

When you can look at these two ways from your heart, you can find compassion for the soul that has “hurt you.” It’s our ego that wants to “punish” them for not evolving and not doing the teaching with grace. We are always in free will to teach a soul lesson. The more inner work you do, the more you will attract life lessons and teachings from more evolved souls. You are never powerless in any situation and to forgive, means to forgive yourself for the part you have played!

With the energy of Spring entering into our daily lives, it’s time to rebirth our lives by watching nature bloom, grow and spring forward! When we stay present, we’re able to see the beauty of our surroundings which brings the now energy into our hearts and lives.

Here is a great forgiveness prayer that I personally love and also share with my clients and anyone who is in need of an uplifting vibration.

I sometimes use it to forgive myself for making choices that I can’t let go of, or I use it if I’m holding negative feelings towards someone else... It’s bring so much peace and joy into my heart!

Ho’oponopono works by releasing and correcting relations from our past, present and future. In quantum physics, it is to believe we are living our past, present and future simultaneously, which is exactly what this prayer does)!!

When you work with this prayer you are clearing the waves of energy to cleanse and let go of these negative feelings and low vibrations. This helps raise your frequency to a higher vibration which can connect to higher vibrational experiences and relationships (more evolved people and experiences of inspirational growth).

Healing prayer technique:

Hoʻoponopono (ho.o.po.no.po.no) is a Hawaiian practice of reconciliation and forgiveness. The Hawaiian word translates into English simply as correction.

There a few ways you can do this prayer:

1) Closing your eyes, meditating on the situation and repeating the prayer.

2) You can write down your name and/or the persons name you’re having to “forgive” and handwrite the prayer 10 times.

3) You can look at a picture of yourself and or the person you want to forgive, and repeating the prayer out loud in a repetition of 5 times. Once you finish the cycle of prayers, close your eyes to feel the release in your heart.

Prayer:

I love you (for who you are as you are),

I'm sorry (for whatever pain I've caused and for any karmic interaction),

Please forgive me (for creating this dynamic),

Thank you (for being my teacher)

-Namaste-

April Full Moon, Libra

On this powerful Full Moon, it’s time to put focus on your relationships. Are you giving more than you are receiving in a love relationship, or is it the other way around?

Libra is about finding balance and meeting your heart with matched energy. This full moon is met by Venus and Uranus which will brew up and surface problems with any off balance parts in your relationships.

You might start to feel restless and rebellious. So go inward into your heart center to seek the truth. You hold the power to truth when you ask for the veil of your story to be lifted.

Here’s a great Full Moon Ritual that will allow you (if you desire) to see where you’re off balance and see your truth.When you find yourself able to listen to your truth, this can uplift your life in multiple ways!

Candle(s) Colors

Red - Letting go of anger, aggression, sexual assault

Orange- Letting go of blocks around birthing, imbalance, creativity, lack of inspiration and feeling no intimacy in relationships

Directions for Candle Lighting:

Take a pen/paper/matches, choose a candle that represents what you are seeking to let go of (or choose both).

Sit down and close your eyes and take 3 big deep breathes into your heart. Then, as you're breathing deeply out to the sky to reset, ask and allow yourself to feel and see the truth of your imbalances around your heart. See if you get a picture, a thought of someone, a word popping into your head, or a feeling of discomfort in your body (if you get a physical discomfort, ask this area to release the imprint of pain/fear/story).

Then write down what showed up in your breathing moments... after writing these down, take your paper with a bowl of water, and light it on fire over the water safety check) !!

Tip: See how fast it burns.. the slower the burn, the more you have to release. If it burns quickly. then you have fully released the negative blocks/energy.

After the paper has burned, take your candle(s) and hold it to your heart center. Visualize the opposite of what you released. Take your time, there is no rush...

When you feel the shift of your focus in your heart, light your candle(s). Let them burn out, and as the days pass, you can see from the candle how close you are to being free from what you’ve let go! Remember, allow the candle to fully burn out. This can take up to 5 days to fully burn.

---

Safety Precaution:

With allowing your candle to stay lite until its burnt out, please leave your candle in a safe area that is blocked from falling over or in a closed space. I recommend to keep the candle either in a sink with a flat surface, a shower and/or bathtub for over the period of 3-8 days. When candle is finished, clean out glass jar and recycle the glass.

Aries New Moon, April 5th

In this New Moon in Aries, it’s a great time to ask for allowing yourself to find comfort and connection to your passions in life. Know that your passion is toned as your “path-shown”. If you are looking for direction in career, relationships with self-worth and confidence, this would be a great time to ask the universe to show your passions “path-shown” towards your highest path of happiness and enjoying the richness in life!

Traits to Heighten:

Confidence, Self-Worth, Courage, Determination, Sexual Pleasure, Creativity, Balanced Emotions, New Beginnings, Self-awareness, Independence and Integrity.

Bringing healing light to dis-ease associated with Aries and energy points:

Reproductive Issues, Urinary Infections, Bipolar Disorder, Fatigue, Low Sex Drive

This is a great energy that supports creating your life with passion. With Aries’s confidence, determination and courage you have the ability to transform your energy into self-worth, finding your value in your passions and cultivating a healthy sex life. Because Aries is ruled with the sacral energy point, you can easily shift old patterns around cultivating your “Dream Life” into reality. The Sacral energy point is the ruler of flow and this allows you to let go of control and allow your creativity and passions to “flow freely” through your body with ease. This allows you to connect to your gut instincts and be guided to opening paths you were closed off to before. I recommend to change up your regular routine and take a movement class for your physical body like dancing or yoga! This helps open up your sacral chakra to enhance self-esteem, self-love and charisma!
