PEG and the Art of Sacred Space

By Elly Yule

How’s your PEG then? (PEG = Personal Energy Grid). Are you sparkling like a night sky full of stars? Are you glowing like a firefly? Or is your wattage so low you look like a lightbulb about to go out?

Recent astrological events have caused us all to be on an energetic rollercoaster and it hasn’t been easy. If you are a therapist or healer, there will have been many demands on your energies as you help your clients to deal with the current rollercoaster ride that life is. Goodness - all this and home life to balance too! Several lightworkers I know are definitely on low wattage, they have been trying to help so many people and have had little time to help themselves. Whoah – stop right there!

Check your PEG right now, how’s it doing?

One way you can help yourself is through the Art of Sacred Space. This doesn’t just mean your work and home environments, but also your personal Sacred Space, inner and outer. Sacred Space techniques can help you greatly to conserve your personal and psychic energies, ensuring that your PEG doesn’t get drained.

Let’s start with the external environment around you, particularly your work space as a therapist/healer/Lightworker. If you are sharing work space with other professionals, it is absolutely essential to clear the energy in the room, of their presence and, any energetic fall-out there may have been from their clients. Otherwise you will be dealing with all of that whilst you are trying to work, and you and your clients will not get the best out of the session.

Start the day by clearing the room of any residue energies, you can use a vibrational essences spray mist such as “The Cleanser” to do this, I like to follow this by using “Angels of Joy” to invoke the help and protection of the angels for the day’s work. Smudging is a good technique, I personally like the pejuta wakan, Sage, as it is so powerful, incense is also good. (Do check that you won’t set off the fire alarms or sprinklers in the building you are in by doing this!). Using the light of a dedicated, lighted candle is also good, as the light will dissolve any lingering darkness.

Case Study
On a trip to Europe teaching Space Clearing and the Art of Sacred Space, I had an interesting experience. It was at a new healing centre I had been asked to help out at. It was lovely, small but functional and the therapist had been working very hard to build her clients and practice. At the time she used a large old fashioned fabric covered chair for the healing sessions (any of you who are NFSH trained will know that this is perfectly okay). As the next patient came in, I saw the patient sit into the etheric residue of the previous client, in fact there were layers and layers of it trapped in the fabric of the chair. I suggested to the therapist that she use “The Cleanser” spray mist to clear the chair and room in between patients. The result was instantaneous, the energy in the room lifted and was clean and clear, and at the end of a busy day the therapist realised she was not as exhausted as she usually was.

I cannot emphasise enough how important it is to clear your aura at the end of the day, before you even think about going home. When the clinic is over, clear the room for the last time and give your aura a good spray. That way you won’t be taking home anything you don’t want!

Now I’m not trying to teach my grandmother to suck eggs here, I know you all know a million different techniques to use, but what I want to know is how often do you use them? Every day? When you remember? So many therapists I know are heading for burn out, because they leave themselves until last, they forget about their own needs before rushing ahead with the day. Do not leave home in the morning until you have made sure that you are grounded and protected (our “Protector” spray mist can do this in a second for you). If you are an active dreamer, you may forget that your chakras could be wide open due to your night dreaming and visioning. Do you really want to walk outside wide open like that? Think before you leave your house, and think about yourself often during the day.

Case Study
My client is a busy practitioner working in three different clinics, in different parts of town. In her case (as with a lot of therapist clients), I did personalised blends for her. She would order three of “The Cleanser” spray mists, and I would intuit the strength of formula that was needed for each clinic (it would vary greatly), I also intuited which essential oils needed to go in, again it was different for each clinic. She used them to space clear the work space and she used them to cleanse her aura in between clients. Over the years, the strength of the formula would change as her clients, and the type of work she was doing with them, would change.

Don’t forget that your PEG affects every being you come into contact with, so make sure it’s clean and sparkly and let that beautiful grid of yours light up our world!

Stepping into the One

By Colin Whitby

More than just coincidence

stepping.jpgOver the last few months Gill and I have been seeing numbers all over the place, the most frequent have been 222 and 999.

Gill has seen seven 222’s now, each time it has been on our radio alarm clock when she has woken in the night, looking up there was the time 02.22. Now once is quite interesting, twice is grabbing our attention, 7 is just pushing the likelihood of this being accidental to the extreme, here is someone’s angels trying to get through for sure.

From our research we have read that 222 means ‘you’re on the right track, keep going, well done’.

This has come at a time of big challenges, particularly one of choosing conventional medicine after years of trying complementary approaches. The challenge is to see both as valid, both are part of the whole, so although traditional medicine can cause side effects that we are not happy about, the path may just need this kind of treatment for a while. The 222’s have been reassuring us that the choices we have made are ok.

Also we have been thinking of moving house, and all the places we have seen so far have had things we like, and things we do not. We are homing in on the what, but the where and the when still seem to evade us (more later).

I on the other hand have been seeing 999’s, and again it is taking chance beyond the coincidental. The first time it happened was one of my credit card pin number had changed and there, where three similar numbers really should not be used, was 999 - presumably randomly generated for security reasons.

The next time was during a journey where I saw 999 on a number plate of the car in front, then 99 on many more cars that day. If that were not enough, I then saw 999 on my security number generator that I use to access my company computer network for dial in. Never before have I seen three numbers the same, in 6 years of using it, yet last week 999 appears. One day is enough you’d have thought, and yet the following day as I key in my pass code, the random number generator inside the electronic secure key presents 999 yet again. Twice is taking chance a bit far, but the following day it happened a third time, perhaps it is time to sit up and take notice, and to thank my rather persistence guardian angel for being so patient.

Now for me the 999 heralds a big change, looking up the meaning it indicates that there has been a major completion. This fits with my life at the moment, within my workplace a long term contract is ending, suddenly, which has surprised us all. On the lifestyle front I’m moving to a 4 day week, voluntarily, which again means significant changes. With regard to my lightwork and weavings, it feels like all has been achieved, as Shely has been saying in her articles, I no longer feel the need to strive to complete something, it is done.

Within our relationships long term ones are changing, there are many endings and beginnings, it appears to be a time of chaos, yet all feels fine, it feels right and wrong, good and bad, all at the same time.

I have been visualising the 999 as a milometer in a car, just before it changes to next 1,000, except this 1,000 is not on this speedo – it’s off the scale, and it’s not 999 it’s 99999999999999. As it turns slowly (this is an old speedo with mechanical numbers) I can see the bottoms of the 9’s going up and the tops of the 0’s coming into view, it’s time to get out of this car and find myself a new one.

On another meter, in another vehicle, my new speedo reads 1 (perhaps this one measures light-years rather than miles).

Stepping into the 1

The act of stepping into the 1, as I have called it, came to me as I saw these 9’s going out into infinity and myself stepping out into the 1, I just need to hold my foot up, as if I were stepping off a moving escalator, out into the new. We are all on this flow, this stairway to heaven (cue Led Zeppelin again), all we need to do is see that this is where we are, and then step into the new.

Here everything is taken care of, all the pieces of the jigsaw are in place, we do not need to work anything out, no need to do anything, just be.

This new place seems to be just about here, but on closer inspection it is not quite ready. For example we have found that looking for a new place to live has resulted in finding out what we do not want, which has helped us define what is it we do want more clearly. So we have the what we want, however the when and the where is still unknown, we do not seem to be able to get closer to the time and place yet, so until we do we will stay put.

Shely was saying it feels like we are in a room where our creation has been completed (by us) but as yet we cannot see it clearly, perhaps we have not found the light switch. So we know it has been created, but as yet the shape and the structure of it are still to be understood. All is well though, all is in place, so lets celebrate and thank ourselves for being so inventive, who would have thought life can be this much fun, so much joy to be experienced now we know it is done.

The universe is ready and we have created the new, but we still need to shape and define how we would like to interact with it, how do we want to live, what is our passion, what would we really like to play at, now the hard work has been done. Be precise with your requirements, otherwise your architect and builders may not know exactly what to deliver, but do not worry about the how, they will sort that out for you. Trust it is on its way (it’s already created in our room remember?) and all will be well.

So why not step into the ‘one’ – just imagine yourself reaching the top of your escalator to heaven, now step into the new, just go with the flow, leave the old behind - create your new world from this place – and fly – laugh with the sheer joy of it all - it’s what we came for after all.

With Love,

Colin.

Spiritual Smoothie – A Blend of Ideas

By Colin Whitby

smoothie.gifRecently I have been on holiday taking a rest and thinking about how to develop this web site, what kind of articles to write, who to invite to contribute and so on.

On one of our trips out my wife and I bought a couple of fruit smoothie drinks, one was a mix of strawberry and vanilla, the other apple and mangos – interesting choices of fruit and interesting flavours once mixed. One was made from pure juices, the other had sugar, yoghurt and flavour enhancers, each represented the best flavour that its creator could come up with.

One of the drinks did not suit us and we now know that this particular drink is not for us, however this is a very individual choice as clearly enough people liked the drink for it to be on sale in the first place.

This then is what we each create for ourselves when exploring our spiritual paths: we bring together a unique mix of experiences, of beliefs or faiths that suits us in any given moment. We may find the mix we have been ‘drinking’ for a while no longer suits our changing palate, so we add or remove an idea to better match our current feelings. We are in a constant state of change so our spiritual smoothie recipe is constantly changing too.

This site is intended to give you access to new ideas and energies that you can add to your own spiritual smoothie, to mix and enjoy as you choose. Why not be adventurous and try something new, it may be just what you were looking for.

Reflections

By Colin Whitby

reflections.jpgI wonder how many of you have read that we are all mirrors for each other, that the person in front of you is offering a reflection of yourself for you to observe and if necessary look at the changes that may be necessary for you.

How many times have we looked at this reflection and not liked what we see? How dare they behave like that, what do they mean by loading me up with so much heavy emotions, they are not mine, they are projections of their own, after all I’ve cleared all my stuff already.

Well I for one have been there many times, for it seems that once you have cleared one level, the next is ready and waiting, and if you are one of the volunteers who has come to help clear the earth of the old patterns, guess what? you get to feel them as they go – fantastic….

Most times these clearings are being carried out in a safe and loving way, for me I have been fortunate to have met so many loving and caring souls who have guided and loved me through these often painful sessions. The amazing thing is that often the only way to get to these deepest parts of ourselves is to let go and love your mirror completely. For me that can be the most annoying person at work who keeps blocking my projects, it might be a manager who is behaving in an unprofessional manner, or it might be a beloved who has suddenly faced me with a truth.

I believe that at this stage my of development I only attract to myself those people who can give me the learning I need to progress to the next stage of ascension, which means everyone, even that bloke who just pushed me in the back on the tube (London Underground) has something for me to look at.

I have had some really deep emotional clearings lately, from the beginning of this year (2007) until Easter has been very intense, with amazing blissful experiences quickly followed by deep painful clearings. Now many of these clearings have been from many lifetimes, sometimes back to the beginning where the male/female separation happened, since before our Adam and Eve story. When we let these go from our energy memories we are clearing for the earth, for all of humanity, for the universe.

On many of these occasions, I have felt the gentle hand of God touch me and give me such love, that the hurt and the emotions just seem to be perfect and right in the moment, even thought the hurt is as deep as a human can go. Often I have had this reassurance and in the thick of the emotion have simply said to God ‘well that’s nice, thanks a lot pal, is that supposed to make me feel better?’. Well even light beings swear at themselves, for at this point I feel so close to God, part of God, that any emotion that is passing through is worth the effort, the love I experience during these moments is something to treasure.

The ‘so what?’ for me is that everything in our lives at the moment, or in the moment, is for us to learn from. The most painful lessons are delivered by our most beloved, who have volunteered to help us in this important time of our evolution. They have come with such a pure reflection, so clear, that often we do not like what we see and accuse them of projecting on us something unpleasant that they themselves want to get rid of.

The interesting thing is that we too are pure clear mirrors for our beloveds. Have you noticed that at times you have said something that has provoked a really adverse reaction in someone, something you have said without emotion or anger or apparently carrying any energy except love? When you speak or act from this pure space in yourself this is when you are the purest reflection for your beloveds. Now this again may be at work, where someone bursts or explodes at you, or it may be in the most intimate places with your most loved ones, where suddenly from the most tender moment, an outpouring of such intensity takes you by surprise.

Well again the message is ‘don’t panic’ (from the Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy), this is perfectly normal for someone as pure as you, your light is so bright and your mirror so pure, what else can you do but reflect the very things that your beloved needs in the moment. Sometimes you will say things you do not appear to be attached to, and for me this is when God is speaking though me (something that I ask to happen, for me it’s what I am here for).

When you see your reflections for what they are, go to your clear calm space and ask for an insight. It may be that feeling the emotion is all that is required, it may be that help is needed to clear this particular block, often we just need someone to witness the clearing, someone to hold the space while we go down and get the ‘stuff’. When I ask for help I often think of climbers, where one climber has gone ahead to find the route, and lets down a rope to help the rest of us climb up. These days we are often climbing down into the darkness, and our guides have lit the way and provided the ropes. Do not be afraid to ask for help, there are many guides who are just waiting to be asked.

I hope you enjoy your ascension, that you see your own reflections and love them, by loving yourself (in others) you will be able to see the way more clearly. By being a clear reflection for others, you will help them see themselves more clearly.

Why not go to a mirror and look at yourself deep in the eyes, feel your soul touching your soul, and remind yourself how much love you are?

‘I am such a clear reflection.
I am love,
I Am’.

With Love,

Colin.

Reference Frequency – Aligning Your Consciousness

By Colin Whitby

gillianwhitbyart3part1.gifFor much of my life I have been involved in connecting communications networks for large organisations, be they for telephones or computers. Once the network is created we then develop rules or protocols to ensure everyone can connect and make use of the network (that’s how phones all have the same plug, for example). We might discuss numbering plans, dial-up processes for home workers or simply ensure that the right software is available for connections to be made for everyone’s computer.

One very important aspect of modern networks is the speed that the data can be transmitted as more and more information (such as live pictures) is sent. The more information that is sent, the higher the transmission frequency the network has to cope with. To handle this increase in network speed we may need to upgrade the telephone or computer at the end of the network, sometimes we may need to completely redesign the network and create a whole new way of communicating. We have seen this happen recently with the introduction of digital television, where new networks and transmission methods have meant a complete overhaul of the industry.

Our spiritual connections have recently been going through similar upgrades, with our whole interconnectedness with each other receiving the biggest change in human experience. Much of this is behind the scenes so most of us do not need to know the how, but we do need to keep up with the changes so that we can benefit from the new ‘channels’ or vibrations on offer.

For each of these channels or vibrations, we need a reference frequency, which we need to change each time we wish to experience a new level of consciousness, as we journey to higher levels of awareness. Each level of awareness will carry its own signature or reference frequency, so it is possible to end up with a number of frequencies each aligned to its own vibration. These levels are not mutually exclusive and it is quite possible to experience many different vibrations at the same time (this can take some practice though).gillianwhitbyart3part2.gif

An exercise I do each morning is to link into the purest, clearest ‘love’ frequency that I can be, just a thought will do, which then synchronises or aligns me for the day ahead, bringing myself in perfect harmony with all that is. Why not explore your own reference frequencies, tune in and ask to be aligned with your highest expression, for the good of all, and see what happens. Keep hold of your hat, this can induce a feeling of bliss and joy….
