“The world of time is not the real world; the world of eternity is our real home. We are on our way there. We are pregnant with possibilities.”
Marianne Williamson “A Return to Love”
I sense the wonderful excitement of the year we are entering. I loved this quote from an e-mail I got from a friend, written by Keith Kay of the Quantum Fractal Energy website:
This is not the year to shrink back, play it safe or fade into the background. This is the time for spontaneous adventures, biting off more than you can chew, being unashamed, embracing the unknown, casting off restraint, breaking old patterns, laughing until it hurts, eating new foods, loving with abandon, going a little too far, speaking from your heart, making money doing what you passionately love, waking up in wonder, making new friends, letting go of old relationships, discovering new beauty in those you love and unlocking the infinite potential of your most remarkable life.
Wow! I do think this is the time to stretch beyond our routines and current comfort zones. I love the metaphor of birthing, which stretches us and welcomes beauty and growth. Now is the time! Enjoy the new year!!
Blessings for 2012! Mary

Dear ones, my beloved,
Indeed the New beckons to you, singing a song of new possibilities and miracles in incredible abundance. The New is all around you now, merely awaiting your readiness to receive it! If your eyes are closed or focused on the problems and gloominess of the crumbling of the current age, you miss so much. You might conclude that things are in chaos or disarray. Wrong! The New is right in front of you, just waiting for you to open your eyes to see it, your heart to receive it, your hands to hold it in its breath-taking loveliness.
Look with your hearts, my darlings! Your physical eyes can only see glimmers and flashes of the new earth and new heaven that are being birthed. Beneath the rubble of the old, disintegrating institutions and systems, new life is pushing its way from beneath the earth’s skin. The New may look fragile but it is most definitely not! The Unseen is emerging, growing, birthing, thriving! Stop focusing on what is rapidly becoming the past! Welcome the New and it will surround you and protect you. You will know for sure that the Goddess is rising!!
Truly, there is nothing to fear, absolutely nothing! Nothing can harm you when you are held in the arms of the Divine. All that you need will be provided with deep and abiding love. Just ask and be amazed at what your friends in the Unseen realm can do, as you co-create the New Earth with us.
Breathe until you feel peace in every cell in your body. Sense the Divine breath that you are a part of. All is well.
I love you, dear ones. I am Gaia, your Earth Mother, your friend
