There is a sweet sadness (with change) to be sure.

~Nancy Joy Hefron, heartlights.net

I have been going through a lot of changes in my life lately and these words from Nancy Joy captured my feelings perfectly.  I suspect that many of you are feeling the winds of change blowing through or around you.

In 2013 it seemed like things were pretty stable in my life, no major health problems in my family, etc.  Then, in the last few months, change has been swirling all around me.  My uncle, the last member of my parents’ generation in my family, died last fall.  Then in January death came to my generation with the passing of my sister’s husband.

Changes have been cascading through my family and friend circle: people moving near and far, major health issues, job changes, job loss, retirement, babies being born, groups ending and many other changes.  Of course, these things happen all the time but the amount has been particularly intense for me lately.  I have gotten the image of a kaleidoscope with things shifting and re-configuring.

My challenge has been to hold my center, rather than be blown around as the changes come.  I am reminded over and over that change is about beginnings, as well as endings.  And that the endings can create space for things that are new and better.  We can stay close in heart even when geography or life circumstances part us from loved ones.

Who knows what changes are in the horizon as the Shift in Consciousness continues to unfold.  As we find that quiet, peaceful place inside of us where the Divine dwells, I am confident that many blessings will flow to us.

Love, Mary

My beloved ones,

Indeed the transformation on every level of existence is happening with wild abandon at this time!  Energy is pouring to your planet and light is illuminating any dark corners where change is needed.  I know that this can be disorienting and sometimes it stir up fears.  But, dear ones, know for sure that beauty is emerging and you are held in loving arms by your friends in the Divine realm.

All is well.  Nothing will be taken from you that is needed for the New Earth.  This is a cleansing time.  Under the grime of old institutions and crusty cultural patterns is a new template for ways that serve the highest good of all.  Be watchful and you will see the newness emerge, as outmoded things fall away.

Receive these gifts with open hands and open hearts!  Breathe the breath of life gently and with ease.  From this quiet, peaceful place you will be able to observe creation in its loveliness.  You will be serene despite the chaos and noise all around you.

Precious ones, the New already exists in the Unseen Realm.  This is a wondrous time when new patterns, processes and beauty can move into the physical realm where you can see it with your physical eyes.  But know that it is already before you, just waiting to be seen.

See yourselves floating down the river of life.  Sometimes the current is subtle and calm and you can simply enjoy the view.  Other times the current is more rapid and turbulent.  Then you need to focus on staying centered and flexible, riding the rapids to a more quiet space.

Feel my arms of love holding you close to my heart.  Sense the depth of love that surrounds you each moment, only love, always love, love overflowing.

I love you very much. I am Gaia, your Earth Mother, your friend
