Messages from Gaia

Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly…

~Proverb

A sweet friend recently gave me a magnet with this on it. I was so touched by her thoughtfulness, as well as the hopeful message.

Personally and collectively, it feels like we are in such a time of birthing and leaving behind all that does not serve our highest good. But it is sometimes hard to see and hear the new amidst the noise and chaos of our times. Who amongst us hasn’t sometimes wished that we could hit a fast forward button? Yet we are creating our wings with each step (and flutter) of the journey.

When I long for big changes, I have to recognize how attached I am to the current way of living. Then I remember this from “Hope for the Flowers”. ‘How does one become a butterfly? You must want to fly so much that you are willing to give up being a caterpillar.’

Blessings, Mary

Dear and beloved ones,

How I love to affirm your beauty and how much I love you! I so very much want you to affirm this, as well. Yet so often I hear you affirming what is not your true self.

Do you see yourself as strong, powerful and wise? Or do you view yourself as inferior, weak and lacking wisdom? Your thoughts create your reality, whether you recognize this or not.

All you need is abundantly available to you. But unless you reach for it with confidence and enthusiasm, it will elude your grasp. You can blame yourself, others or whoever you choose to hold responsible. But it is simply a choice or actually a series of choices.

Affirm your strength, your capableness, your abilities, all that you want and dream about. It is there, my darlings, just waiting to be accessed and affirmed. As you take steps toward your goals and dreams, they will appear, often more quickly than you imagine possible. But you must be active, not passive. You are co-creators, not helpless children, waiting to be given what you want and need.

As you affirm the gifts that are within you, more will emerge in beauty and perfection. Always I hold you close to my heart of love. I am with you each step, holding your hand and your heart in my tender care. Rest against me when you are tired and sense our hearts beating in quiet rhythm. All is well, dear ones.

I am Gaia, your Earth Mother, your friend
