Welcoming the New Era

New Era Rising

Solstice, December 2012 Well, the date I have been waiting for and working towards since 1978 is now upon us. And I certainly didn’t expect to feel like I do, which is to simply withdraw from the younger souls, the negativity, the violence, the cruelty and the rest of the barbaric nature of third dimensional reality. Lately, I have found myself so sensitive that it's challenging to go into a supermarket, be in the company of people eating the flesh of another, be on Facebook, or have anything at all to do with the third dimension. I couldn’t even go to the Farmer’s Market near Fox Studios recently, because I was so sensitive to the hunks of skinned dead animals everywhere. It just seemed too brutish, and like I was visiting a very primitive planet. I feel raw and vulnerable and “new born”, and I have a powerful need to be still, to be quiet, to go within. I’ve even started feeling nauseous when thinking about or confronted with the the sickening nature of the old humanity … [Read more...]

Energy Update: November-December 2012

Solar flare

26 Nombember 2012 Mercury Retrograde stations direct today  and we are in the middle of a powerful eclipse season, complete with huge solar flares and planetary line ups. There are earthquakes everywhere as our Mother rumbles and shift. People are being challenged in all kinds of ways on all kinds of levels. My sense is this is a last powerful cleanse and if you watch what has come up for you at this time, perhaps you can take the opportunity to change your direction and set your new compass for alignment with your highest potential. Which is even higher than you can imagine!   This takes courage but really look at where your energy goes up and where it goes down. It seems to me the energy of love is here and if you choose it, you can go through the next few weeks with gentleness and spiritual aid. The veil is very very thin. And signs and symbols and messages from the other realms abound. Manifestation is getting faster. I've noticed that the people who are doing their … [Read more...]

Energy Update: Equinox Gateway

Doorway

21 September 2012 This weekend is the Equinox, and it doesn’t matter which hemisphere you are in, it is going to be big.  Many people can feel it and emotion is running high.  The weeks heading into this gateway have been compressing many people into a shamanic dying process – lots of depression, tears, fears, frustration, hopelessness, helplessness, until you finally surrender, drop the last of your shadow and story, and stand there in front of the Equinox glass door, naked, vulnerable, humble, excited, content, peaceful, expectant. What I’m being shown is an image of a glass door (like a human size cat door)  to a different world - a veritable enchanted garden paradise which is the New Earth,  and it is going to be open to anyone who wants to walk through. It is no accident that people call this time a Gateway. It is. This simple vision means so much.  It shows the result of the paradigm shift.  The place we will create – we can create –  we are creating with … [Read more...]

Energy Update: Late August to September 2012

Solstice - Equinox

27 August 2012 Well July and August sucked, and here, we lost our car, wood heater, (in winter!) washing machines (twice), dish washer and fridge.  Thanks Mercury in retrograde.  And then we lost our beloved dog Dusty, after an extensive and exhausting hospice time.  It wasn't easy.   It wasn't easy with tests and lessons (still) peppered through the period as well.  It was hard to focus and be grounded, and spontaneous tears were aplenty.  I heard a  lot of other people shared those particularly wonderful 2012 symptoms as well. I know I will be able to make jokes about this time in the future.  But it's a challenge when the pressure is on and you are exhausted, grieving, and the things going wrong just go beyond funny.   However, at some point you have to laugh because it is a bit of a cosmic joke at the moment with us manifesting our lives at speeds unheard of, and the pressure piling up to make us change. I know it was very hard on others as well.   A lot of people … [Read more...]

Holding the Light in a Time of Chaos – The Importance of Love

Brumbies on a Hill

July 16, 2012 Welcome to the second half of the most important year of our lives! Don’t be surprised if it proves to go past at lightning speed, that you find yourself planning for the unexpected, that planning anything is nearly impossible and that you begin to find the work you do best is not the career you have chosen but actually who you really are, and it feels more like play. Love for self and others, and finding your Joy continues to be vital in making the shift.  That and making the choices to free yourself of old karmic debts. Do lots of forgiveness. Let go the past. Send love to everyone in your life. And note who triggers you and figure out why so you can learn to respond, rather than react. Are they wounded and hurting you from a space of the wound, projecting their wounds or mirroring your wounds? Does their light shine into your shadow making you feel uncomfortable because of something past life or some guilt you feel because deep down you want your own … [Read more...]

2012 June Energy Update: Eclipse – Doorway and Birth

Venus Transit, 5 June 2012

June 11, 2012 Has the last month been intense for you? We are now in the eye of the 2012 storm, being processed, compressed and expanded. If May was big for you, June is bigger. Accept. Surrender. Let go. Allow. These  words are very very important right now. They are the words that will help you ride this period of intensity with joy and grace. Let go your resistance to change. From the May Super Full Moon, I felt like there was a pair of Divine hands ripping off that last layer of skin which is our “stuff’, stirring the pot for many and havoc for others, as people became reactionary, tense, irritable and confused. Venus was retrograde and lots of relationships came under fire. There have been many deep and difficult “cleansings” of a health nature for some – and that is also something to look at because ill health is simply imbalance, and caused by something deep that needs to be rectified.  It might be grief, a yearning for self love, anger, sadness, … [Read more...]

No, You are Not Going Insane

Road and Sky, by Billie Dean

I was talking on the phone to a fellow horse rescuer when, suddenly, the world shifted and I fell into a conscious faint, heading for the newly painted old kitchen cabinet sitting on the verandah. I was able to stop myself in time and carried on the conversation as if nothing had happened. Perhaps this dizziness was part of the flu? Was I, more worriedly, reacting to the phone's EMR?  Or perhaps it was related to an earthquake. I have felt Earth Changes within my own body before, but this was almost a total loss of consciousness - except I didn't lose consciousness. Much dizziness and some dog squabbling (which is always a sign of Earth Changes in our household) later, I learned that, indeed, we had earthquakes happening in a major way all around the planet. So many sensitive people have reported dizziness, headaches, feeling faint, panic-like attacks, fatigue, restlessness, frustration, irritability and more.  And it is all connected to our Mother Earth going through her … [Read more...]

Billie’s Blog: Surfing the Waves of the New Times

Water Overflowing at A Place of Peace

22 February 2012 Welcome to the year of the Water Dragon, to the time of Neptune in Pisces. This time is about water. Our season has been wet, wet, wet. I am grateful for the cool, and the rain. I'm also grateful it is not too much! This is the third blog post I have tried to write recently, but of course, the energies are even more speedy than last year and my bedtime is still 2 am, despite my best efforts! Spirit has demanded I spend more time with spiritual pursuits, and so I have been deep in conversation with animals, trees, the wind, the water and those from the Otherworld.  I have  been doing my spiritual work.  (And taking copious notes!) This spiritual expansion is what the astrology of the time is demanding.   It comes as no surprise being 2012 and all!!   So let's see  what else is on the immediate radar. My sense is that there are also the dangers of following false gurus, whether they be human or otherwise.  "Otherwise" could be drugs, fear, … [Read more...]

New Moon, New Year – New You?

Greeting the Sun

 22 January 2012 The long awaited  year of 2012 has arrived and I'm reminded of the first time I heard about it in 1978.  I was a herb student, and after a field day identifying plants in the wild, our hosts offered a vegetarian lunch (potato patties and salad). The conversation, as we dined alfresco, me with the resident dog at my feet, turned to conspiracy theories. It was one of those days you just don't forget. I loved the company I was in, even though I was the youngest there, feeling much more at home in this alternative environment than anything else in my life to date. There were bees buzzing. The dog and I were quietly communing, and the human conversation and company were fascinating. The conversation turned to 2012.  Was it really the end of the world?  Would a UFO come and get the "good" people? Did you have to believe in Jesus to be saved? Was it all a furfy?  Our host, a very tall man with a beard and overalls, stood up and talked about the Hopi … [Read more...]

Equinox Energies and Animal Transmissions

Shadow Hands

September 23, 2011 The Equinox is a special day for doing fire ceremony and setting your intention for what you want, after shedding whatever it is you don’t want.  It is a day of balance and harmony.  It is made even more powerful by coinciding with the Sixth Night of the Mayan Calendar and truly a time to let go any old stories of the past forever.  A good time to ask the fire to help you dissolve the chains of karma. The world needs us to be happy and alive because of the morphogenic field factor.  This means that we affect the world around us with our mood and emotions.  If we raise our vibration, we can shift the experience of the world around us.  So this is why I keep talking about finding out what it is that brings you joy, and setting your intention to do more of it. What are your priorities? And think of this not so much in an old third dimensional way, because that way no longer exists for so many of us.  Think of it as new.  Really think.  What is it … [Read more...]
