March 2011 Newsletter
Hello Everyone and Happy Spring!
It took a long time (almost four months) to write this newsletter because it is very difficult to articulate what is happening and to ground it in.
This newsletter is about magic. I am not talking about the magic show kind of magic; that is an illusion. I am talking about the magic that comes from Spirit.
Magic is when you are connected; when you are in the right place, the right space. When you line up with Spirit, things that you dreamed of but never expected to happen because they seemed too far out of reach – these things actually happen unexpectedly and wonderously.
Our soul knows the truth. Our true guru inside ourselves has the awareness of how our True Self wants to live. This inner knowingness though is clouded by our ego, which is our subconscious. Our subconscious, our personality judges – judges our experiences, ourselves, and the world around us. We don’t understand how sacred our soul is, our body is, our mind is.
There are simple examples of not knowing our sacredness that I come across, such as the way we behaved when we were little kids is like the way we behave now. For example when we were young children, we may have learned a way of eating our food too fast, or we may have forgotten to eat at times, or we ate too much. These are eating habits that as adults we may still have, and we do them subconsciously. But if we understand that we are sacred beings and we are gods, even the food that we eat, that we prepare for ourselves and for our families, that is a ceremony.
It’s about really looking at the subconscious and how it behaves, observing how it repeats the same issues and experiences every day. And it’s about the stories that we create with those experiences every day.
So, I’m sure your question is, how can we shift that? How can we align with Spirit and be magical beings?
And my answer is, realize that the new energy is about co-creation. Realize that you are not the only person that has an issue like overeating or negative thought patterns. Realize that you are not the only one that makes the subconscious come out.
If we do have a problem or a negative thought, it will be better if we realize that it is not just our negative thought. Realize that the world outside is experiencing this too. Realize that everyone around us is suffering as well. We need to look at the bigger world. So see yourself as part of the solution and not part of the problem. Shift your perspective with the awareness that you will simultaneously help others as well. And start creating magic in your everyday life.
It doesn’t matter where you are in your spiritual growth, start loving the small magical things in your life (like a nice meal for yourself and your family). To really ground the new energies in and align with Spirit, we have to see from the time we wake up until the time we go to bed as sacred.
I know I am writing about magic when disasters are happening all around us, and we don’t even have time to digest one and then the next one is happening. The most recent disaster is the Japan disaster. That is all part of the change that is happening in the world. The more our hearts are open to understand and feel compassion for our fellow human beings, that is part of co-creation. Because now we are opening our eyes not just to our own little world, but to the whole world around us.
So let’s open our eyes and our hearts so we can see and feel the disasters. That is how we can send compassion and love, and that is how the change is going to take place.
Always, Zeffi
