Author: Hālau ʻĀha Hūi Lanakila

Aloha Ke 'Ākua! Māhālo nūi lōa for visiting Nā Hālau ʻĀha Hūi Lanakila! We established our Sanctuary for the exploration and awakening of consciousness, the unfolding of our collective creative and healing potential and realisation of our essential Unity. Our teachings arise out of direct experience of awakened awareness and emanates the untamable fragrance of freedom whilst radically embracing the mystery and mess of human existence. Our invitation is for you to open to the fullness of life, to say YES to the totality of your experience and to meet reality with radical compassion. Our doors are an open invitation to all who seek authentic freedom and are willing to meet heart to heart in honest and open inquiry. We were taught that the goal of life is to move through life walking up the mountain of experiences with your Aloha, your Bowl of Light. Life is filled with lessons to learn and teaching moments along the way. When you become angry or jealous, you drop those stones into your bowl of light and those rocks cause leaks in your Mana-sacred power. When your bowl becomes filled with stones, you become a stone that cannot grow. No Aloha! The solution is that at any moment, you can turn your bowl upside down emptying these stones out of your bowl to naturally refill it with YOUR golden light -- your natural Aware and Awakened state of Aloha, your natural state of Divinity. This is the power of Pure Aloha: an Awakened Heart Awakens the Mind. Awakening hinges on your genuine desire for the discovery of your true nature. If it is to flower in you, you must truly want liberation from everything that is false in you, you must want to give yourself totally to the inquiry into what is true beyond all inherited concepts, ideas and beliefs. The purpose of our teachings is to ignite this wanting in you. When the flame of this desire becomes an untamable fire, it flips a switch inside of you and the direction of your destiny is irrevocably altered. It’s like turning on the light only to discover that you are this light. This in itself is extra-ordinary: even though you may have heard the words a thousand times, nothing can prepare you for the naked reality that is revealed. And yet the living experience of this revelation is very ordinary: you have simply re-discovered the innocent wholeness of your essential nature. It’s the you that never was and never will be separate from anything at all. This discovery is the end of suffering and the beginning of freedom. But awakening is just the beginning. The adventure begins, not in the rarified atmosphere of transcendence, but in the midst of the chaos of life. And living the truth of awakening has perhaps never been more of an imperative than in today’s rapidly changing world. The invitation is for you to awaken to the pristine perfection of your inner light and then to fully embody and express this light amidst the mystery and mess of human existence. Come join us!

Card of the Day – The Hermit – Monday, February 26, 2018

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

Today, you could indeed reach a very important goal. I often see the Hermit as the light at the end of the proverbial tunnel. He guides you through life’s darkest times, and, eventually, yes, you do emerge from the tunnel, back into the light of day.

Whatever place you find yourself arriving today, do try to take a few moments for yourself. Where the High Priestess is indicative of listening to your inner voice, the Hermit asks that you make a little alone time today, allowing for some quiet introspection. You are being guided, and it is not likely that it is to where you thought you were going. Trust in the process and know that the Universe will lead you through this.

See you here tomorrow!

Card of the Day – Queen of Swords – Sunday, February 25, 2018

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

tarotbycecelia's avatarTarot by Cecelia

And, here she is! Yes, we are approaching a Full Moon in only four days, but our Queen of Swords does feel as though she has an important reason for her appearance today. Remember, her positive attributes can serve you well. She is able to look at situations very clearly, setting emotion aside, and having the clarity of focus which is necessary to organize and prioritize an area of life which needs attention.

I would be remiss if I did not touch upon her wicked tongue, as the Full Moon approaches, but truly, to embrace her positive side today can serve you well with the tasks before you.

See you here tomorrow!

This Mint Chocolate Chip Ketogenic Snack Is The Secret To Balanced Blood Sugar & Healthy Mitochondria

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

 

Enter the Keto diet, a way of low-carb, high-fat (LCHF) eating. The fat bomb is a signature dessert or snack of the diet, filled with satiating healthy fats. My version uses coconut oil and coconut butter, which have medium-chain fatty acids that help feed your mitochondria (amazing for energy and longevity). They’re nutrient-dense and totally delicious. Better yet? With just seven ingredients total, they couldn’t be easier to make!  […]

Any way you slice it, crystals are having a moment. So when we asked the BuzzFeed Community what they wanted to know about these seemingly mystical rocks, they answered with questions that ranged from “How the heck do they work?” to “How can crystals help me from being stressed out?” Clearly we needed someone with some kind of authority on the topic, and that’s where Heather Askinosie, crystal expert, co-founder of Energy Muse, and co-author of Crystal Muse: Everyday Rituals to Tune into the Real You comes in.

Tourmaline or The Wisdom Stone

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Anima Mundi's avatarAnima Mundi Crystals

Tourmaline or The Wisdom Stone is the most versatile of minerals for its uses in therapy are as  multiple as the colours it displays. Classified in function of its mineral elements we have seven distinct categories worth mentioning even thou the classification is for the one colour tourmaline, as follows: Dravite(brown, yellow, green, gray), Elbaite( all colours including colourless), Indicolite(Blue ), Rubelite( Red, Pink), Verdelite( Green), Schorl(Black) and Uvite(clear brown to dark brown).

rubelite Rubelite Tourmaline

Spiritualy, from this point of view the multicoloured Elbaite helps to concentrate the spirit, the soul, the logic and the body in a harmonic unity. Beginning from this “totality” wisdom and creativity will develop. The Indicolite powers the will for spiritual liberty. The Dravite stimulates social sense, the disposition to help and social compromise. The Verdelite provides vital happiness and incites us to be grateful for the miracles of life. The Rubelite makes us…

3 Herbs For Spellwork

Herbs are one of the most crucial elements within spell work in my opinion. They possess a variety of useful properties and emit natural energies that are beneficial in whatever you’re trying to achieve.
As a minimalist, I try to keep things as simple as possible and not be overwhelmed by lots of different things. While this can be restrictive, I believe the following herbs can be used in all types of white magick to generate the desired effects.

Sage

1dca4068e7ecfe1473e91457f8b87402

Sage is probably the most basic yet important herb in any magickal artillery. Whilst outside of magick it has wonderful healing properties to aid coughs, colds and flu it also aids memory recall, detoxes the liver and acts as an antihistamine to name a few benefits.

Within magick its most common use is creating a smudge stick. This involves binding the herb into a bundle and burning the tip to…

Eliza Bassett's avatarEyes of Heaven

We’re a week past the last eclipse. Please attend to your energetic space by doing a thorough cleansing, re-setting boundaries. Gently and kindly escort any non-human energy visitors back to their home domain. Sweep up any leftover energy, asking it to be taken to wherever in creation it is food. Be sure to close all entry/exit ways when they are gone. Peace to all.
