What an adorable 9 of Pentacles from a deck-in-progress by Joanna Nelson Studio, titled ‘Whispering Spirits’.  If  you will be in the Denver, Colorado area September 7 through 9, you can stop by the Body, Mind and Spirit Expo at the Denver Mart, and meet both Joanna Nelson and Kayti Stewart (a/k/a Kayti Creator), both of 78 Tarot fame.  They will have plenty of artwork, goodies, and Tarot items with them for your perusal.

As we bask in the glow of the Pisces Full Moon, and enjoy the vibe of the Grand Earth Trine, with the Sun in Virgo, Saturn in Capricorn, and Uranus in Taurus, I am not sure if I could have chosen a better card for today. Pentacles are, after all, the Earth suit, and the 9 of Pentacles, is basking in all of your comforts and luxuries and those things which make you…

Spirit Animal Oracle: Grandmother Spider (Creativity)

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Mother Spider is a very powerful spirit. Far from the ugly critter image we usually use to depict her, she is a master creator. The Spider is certainly one of the most talented architects in Nature, and symbolizes art and creativity.

Spider encourages you to express yourself in a creative form. It is also reminding you that you are the creator of your life. We all constantly weave complex mental, emotional and social patterns. How does your web look? Clean and structured, or rough and messy? Maybe it is time to use your creative power to bring harmony back into your life and to focus again on what is important. As the creator of your reality, you have the power to consciously weave the life of your dreams. Ask the Spider to guide you in this process.

As a side note, spiders are also wonderful loving parents. Some species don’t hesitate to offer their own body so that there babies can feed. This is certainly the ultimate sacrifice a mother could make for her children! So please, next time you see a spider in your house, don’t kill it. Thank it for it’s creative message and if you don’t want to have it as your guest, gently relocate it outside.

MESSAGE FROM THE SPIDER: “You are the architect of your life. Be creative!”

Pāli Word a Day for August 26, 2018 — bhūmi — ground, earth, region

Yo ca vassasataṃ jīve
dussīlo asamāhito
ekāhaṃ jīvitaṃ seyyo
sīlavantassa jhāyino.

Better it is to live
one day virtuous and meditative
than to live a hundred years
immoral and uncontrolled.

Spirit Animal Oracle | The Mole (Introspection)

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Here is a beautiful Sioux legend which says a lot about the spirit of the Mole. In ancient times, The Creator gathered all of Creation and said, “I want to hide something from the humans until they are ready for it. It is the realization that, as a part of me, they create their own reality.” Many creatures suggested places to hide this knowledge, but none of them were really satisfactory, as humans would finally explore them. Finally, Grandmother Mole, who lives within the heart of Mother Earth and sees with her spiritual eyes — rather than her physical eyes — spoke up: “Why don’t we hide it inside the humans? That is the last place they will look for it.” The Creator laughed, and replied in an instant: “It is done.”

The Mole has a profound and rich connection with its inner self. Like the Mole, you may benefit now from solitude and introspection. Don’t look for solutions around you, as all your answers are only within yourself. Get back to yourself, and look inside Examine your emotions and understand your patterns. It may not be pretty, but explore even your darkest corners and deepest wounds. Be honest and don’t try to embellish things. Only when you really know yourself, will you be able to initiate deep changes.

MESSAGE FROM THE MOLE: “Look within yourself and find your own answers. You can only heal what you are aware of. Know thyself.”

Matt Kahn | A Message From The Universe

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Hello Friend

When tuning into Source, here is what the Universe wanted me to share with you today:

“As the golden rays of summer sunshine fill up the spaces created by our spring cleaning, we rejoice in the radiance that brings deeper moments of self-reflection, inner renewal, and inspired direction. We may not yet know exactly where we are headed, but going backwards is no longer an option. Instead, we bask in the joy of knowing within the depths of our hearts, we have been chosen for the mission of this lifetime and we are fulfilling it, whether we see the effects of our light or not. We are always doing exactly as we are guided to do, going precisely where we are guided to be, and responding from the level of consciousness that opens inner doorways into even higher realms of freedom, magnificence, and perfection. Not because we are doing things right versus wrong, but because we committed to evolving our consciousness within the grace of our human bodies.

Perhaps these channeled words are urging us to stop exactly where we are and to make the choice to rejoice — all that has been overcome and all the blessings on their way. Can we take a moment and revel in the absolute miracle of being a soul in physical form? To be given a chance to manifest our infinite capacity through the majestic beauty, individual characteristics, and unique attributes of who we’ve come to be.
“Please tune into the energy encoded in these words and allow this moment to help you break open and set you free. It’s all here to be revealed. We just need an opportunity to let it all in.”
When we make the choice to rejoice, the human condition is given permission to transform into the gift of life that is here to be received. As empaths and energetically sensitive souls, we know one of our main growing edges is opening up to receive more often, instead of always putting other goals or people first. As a building block to being a better receiver, we are only able to perceive greater gifts to receive, once we rejoice in the celebration of there being gifts to open and take in. Whether we sense miracles on the horizon, or stand in a darkened tunnels with no light in sight, simply by making the choice to rejoice, we anchor the vibration of gratitude, which expands our energy fields, elevates our vibration, and allows our hearts to feel safe enough to remain open.

From this space, life can shift away from bringing us outcomes and circumstances to confirm our most limiting beliefs and begin delivering us the synchronicities, resources, relationships, insights, and guidance that shows us the Divine plan we are always fulfilling that we cannot veer away from or ever get wrong.

Let us come together as a community of energetically-sensitive heart centered beings to rejoice in the arrival of 5D consciousness. It may not yet be apparent in the climate of current events or visible in the actions in others, but Mother Earth is already 5D, and those of us already attuned to her sacred calling are waking up in astounding numbers and at record speed. We’ve done the work, continue to hunker down and dive deeply, and now, we shift into welcoming the arrival of a Truth we’ve been contemplating for lifetimes, by rejoicing in celebration for the light that we are.
“Today, the Universe asks us to help uplift the vibration of humanity to alleviate our own inner suffering and wipe away the despair of others by taking the time to be grateful with renewed enthusiasm and relentless joy.”
If this sounds like too big of a leap, then just start with a smile.

Whether toward another or as a gift for yourself, smile as a way of confirming, “no matter how hard its been, life has a bigger plan for me and my smile confirms it’s coming to me now.”

If you are one of the many who has already listened to my Finish Line video, then you will certainly understand where I am coming from today with this card.  Life is all about cycles, so when a cycle completes, a Finish Line, if you will, there will always be another Starting Line.

With that being said, we are on the doorstep of the most glorious Full Moon of the year, this one being in the sign of Pisces.  Pisces itself always brings up the rear and completes the cycle, and whether you realize it, or not, you are poised to walk through the next door, to begin something new that will be unfolding over the coming months.  Finally, you have reached a turning point, and the actions you take heretofore will aid you in ensuring the positive outcome you desire.

See you here tomorrow!

Pāli Word a Day for August 24, 2018 — attamano — becomes joyful

Māvamaññetha pāpassa, “Na mantaṃ āgamissati.”
Udabindunipātena, udakumbhopi pūrati.
Bālo pūrati pāpassa, thokaṃ thokampi ācinaṃ.

Think not lightly of evil, saying, “It will not come to me.”
Drop by drop is the water pot filled.
Likewise, the fool, gathering it little by little,
fills oneself with evil.

Card of the Day – 8 of Cups – Friday, August 24, 2018

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

The promise of new opportunities beckons on the horizon, but what about your current life? It has served its purpose up until now, some good, some bad, but so much more awaits you just on the other side of the impending Full Moon in Pisces which we be here in two more days.

The 8 of Cups is often associated with disappointment, abandonment, and moving on, likely in search of a better life. The timing is right, especially as Mars turn direct in three days, to set out on a new adventure of discovery. If there has been nonsense, whether it was Eclipse and retrograde related or not, being able to turn your back on this part opens you up to new possibilities. There is no remorse with this card; you are ready and willing to venture forth and see what the Universe has in store for you next. The…

Wow! This card is aptly placed today. First, let us start with you, continuing to fly under the radar during this heavy retrograde period. While Mercury is direct, it is currently in shadow through September 2, and Mars remains retrograde until August 27. It is still stealth mode time for you, and soon you will be able to emerge from the shadows and move forward full force with your plans. Keep things under wraps and basically to yourself for the time being.

Next up is the shady business, lies, deceit, and betrayals, associated with this card. Let’s not forget that a direct Jupiter, planet of expansion, is still in Scorpio, the sign of the great detective. Over the course of the coming weeks, and likely moreso once Jupiter leaves shadow in October, you will see more and more of what has been hidden in the shadows being brought to light…
