This is the secret to gaining wisdom and reaching Gnosis. I talk about all the time.

“The heart and mind must be brought into perfect equilibrium before true thinking or true spirituality can be attained. The highest function of the mind is reason; the highest function of the heart is intuition, a sensing process not necessitating the normal working of the mind.”

— Manly P. Hall
“Melchizedek and the Mystery of Fire”

Pāli Word a Day for April 08, 2019 — niraggaḷa — unobstructed, free

Sabbo ādīpito loko,
sabbo loko padhūpito;
Sabbo pajjalito loko,
sabbo loko pakampito.

Akampitaṃ apajjalitaṃ,
aputhujjanasevitaṃ,
agati yattha mārassa —
tattha me nirato mano.

The entire world is in flames,
the entire world is going up in smoke;
the entire world is burning,
the entire world is vibrating.

But that which does not vibrate or burn,
which is experienced by the noble ones,
where death has no entry–
in that my mind delights.

Energy Update | The Anatomy of a Smile, by Matt Kahn

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

One of my favorite lifelong spiritual practices is simply a willingness to smile.

A smile is an offering of goodwill as the spark of Divine energy in two people pulls back the curtain of perception to remember the light dwelling in all. A smile is a subconscious ethical agreement, exchanging the ways society interacts with strangers to the openness of engagement, now that eyes have made direct contact. A smile is a celebration of your untainted innocent heart, always ready and willing to burst with joy throughout moments of inspiration, no matter how broken down, beat up, or defeated the past seemed to be.

A smile is a declaration of freedom shining out from your eternally liberated nature, shouting from the roof tops through the cosmic language of silence, “I am here. I matter. I exist for a reason.” A smile is a gift of emotional generosity, like a gift certificate of healing energy, where the receiver can decide where such energy can be best used for the evolution of his/her soul. A smile is a confirmation of alignment with Source and being settled in your highest Truth, only revealing the need for deeper transformations the moment you look away, pull back, and hide.

A smile is a high five exchanged between angels affirming the perfection of their victory no matter how circumstances come to be. A smile is a remembrance of Heaven sent from the purest space within you to awaken the purity of all. A smile is a symbol of awakened heart-centered consciousness affirming all that is whole, right, and perfect about this moment exactly as it is. A smile is a spiritual cease-fire that only brings defeat to the parts and aspects that were never created to go any further. A smile is a moment of profound surrender, no longer needing to hold anything together or manage a journey that is too busy taking care of you to brief you on its plan.

Whether as a gaze of ecstasy exchanged by lovers, the admiration given from parent to child, support sent from one friend to another, or an offering shared by planetary neighbors, may today be an opportunity to remember the power of your smile.

As you take the time to smile more deliberately, openly, and authentically than ever before, may you rejoice in how often you are given opportunities to positively affect the quantum field of reality just by engaging the simplest and sweetest acts of kindness more often. May you come to know the happiness already within you that can be received with greater awareness the more often you open up and dare to shine.

Through the healing energy encoded in these words, I pass along to you the transformative effects of this powerful practice. From my heart to yours, I offer you this smile and invite you to pass it along to all the incredible souls you are meant to meet. May you receive it fully and share it freely for the wellbeing of all.

All For Love,

Matt Kahn

Card of the Day – 7 of Wands – Sunday, April 7, 2019

One does not need look very far these days to find a group of protesters, people standing up for their beliefs, and their rights to have those beliefs. Today may not find you going off to hang with a local protest group, but, on a more personal level, seeking out those individuals who believe in you and your cause. It pays to have a few allies, and this is not a time to be wasting your energies on anyone who does not have your back.

Typically, I label the 7 of Wands the “I Won’t Back Down” card, a song immortalized by the late Tom Petty. What you want and believe matters, and you have every right to go for it. There will always be naysayers, but today is more about rallying to your side, those who do not rebuke your actions or beliefs.

See you here tomorrow!

April 14, 2010…what was life like then? If only you knew what was to come, for that was the last time you experienced a New Moon in Aries without Uranus, planet of shock and surprise, also being in Aries. Life has been a bit of a rollercoaster since that time. New Moon blessings, my friends! Today is not only the New Moon in Aries, occurring at 15°, it is also the first time in all these years that Uranus has moved on from Aries, not to return for decades. So, what does all of this mean for you? You have come a long way, through life’s fiery changes, stormy trials, and path-altering experiences, and yet, there is still that which hangs over your head, begging to be resolved.

Recovery is one of the words often associated with the 4 of Swords, and most appropriate at this time. If you are…

It’s April 4th and that’s 4/4. Too many New Agey and spiritual writers are talking about the numerology being a Gateway. I don’t think it’s all that special. The Number 4 in the Tarot symbolizes the Emperor or the King and the sign of Aries and the Moon is in Aries Today, we are in Aries season too.  

4’s symbolize the 4 elements, and the 4 directions it is very basic in all indigenous ceremonies to honor these directions. There are 4 Archangels based on the 4 directions. 4’s symbolize stability, power, structure, balance and a foundation.

44 is a Master Number of doubly solid power numbers. 

Vesta, Goddess of Focus, dedication and InVESTments entered Aries today. Vesta joins Chiron the Wounded Healer April 8/9th indicating Financial woes. Vesta and Chiron remain within 8 degrees of each other until April 29th, Financial review in order. especially for Virgo.

La’au Lapa’au | Blackcurrant Increases Cyclic Glycine-proline in Cerebrospinal Fluid and Has Potential to Treat Parkinson’s Disease

Hālau ʻĀha Hūi LanakilaLeave a comment

Crooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs's avatarCrooked Bear Creek Organic Herbs

Insulin-like growth factor-1 (IGF-1) is a neurotrophic factor, which is involved in neuronal survival and brain function. However, in patients with Parkinson’s disease (PD), there is an increase in circulating IGF-1 and impaired IGF-1 function. This impaired function is thought to contribute to disease progression. Changes in plasma IGF-1 may predict prognosis and treatment responses in PD. However, most of the measurable plasma IGF-1 is inactive because it is bound to IGF binding protein (IGFBP), in particular, IGFBP-3. Therefore, plasma IGF-1 concentration does not represent the function of IGF-1. Cyclic glycine-proline (cGP) is a metabolite of free (i.e., not bound to IGFBP) bioactive IGF-1. cGP can also bind to IGFBP-3. When cGP binds to IGFBP-3, there is freer, bioactive IGF-1. Thus, cGP levels are a marker for free bioactive IGF-1. In vivo studies indicate that blackcurrant (Ribes nigrum, Grossulariaceae) anthocyanins (BCA) may alter the IGF-1 pathway. Further, the…

April 3 a astro vlog. Are you floaty and dreamy from all that PISCES energy? Things seem to be flowing. 

According to Traditional astrologer Adam Sommer https://www.facebook.com/kosmognosis

who wrote about an esoteric and alchemically Hermetic Platonic related poem which Renaissance astrologer Marsilio Ficino was researching hundreds of years ago. This  piqued my soul actually. 

“Ficino began to notice something strange which linked the works of Plato and Hermes Trismegistus. References to birds, angels, tridents, and a time when lightning was harnessed. Plato writes:

Mercury. Hermes, Thoth, Wednesday Astrology Tara Greene William Henry Goodyear d. 1923 [Public domain] When the winged one appears out from the firmament,
angels dance on the tips of the Trident
And the ocean of time reveals its trick.”

Poetic and cryptic, this passage seems to prophesize something…pointing towards a specific time in the future.”

Ficino found “a wyrdly similar passage from Hermes Trismegistus,.” The name means Triple Great, associated with the Greek god…
