Blissed Be

***

Blissed be the peacemakers for they shall be called "daughters of Goddess."

This is, of course, a variation of the beatitude made by Jesus (Matthew 5:9). The scribes who recorded his story have only referred to sons of God, which paves the way for women to claim our own interpretation of this beatitude.

Hence, we proudly claim to be daughters of God/dess (we acknowledge sacred balance in the male/female), and offer our prayers for peace in accordance with this beatitude.

Be blessed and blissed be :-)

Blessings

***

Give special consideration to the word blessing. It is a word which we raise up to God / Goddess / Spirit / the Universe in prayer. With humility. We ask for showers of blessings in order to further experience peace and the wonder of our higher consciousness: aka BLISS. We do so without ego or selfish intent. We do so for the greatest good of all. You can ask for abundant blissings by doing Daily Salutes, practising Sacred Vigilance, or even by asking for it via the Love and Blissings Book.

Blissed be :-)

This power is your birthright

****

More often than not, we have been educated in left-brain dominated curricula – maths, science, and in my case, even religious instruction was taught by formula. Art, drama and other right-brained pursuits were generally considered ‘electives’, or not as essential in ‘real life skills’. But what this style of education did was teach us to think logically rather than foster creativity.

We learned to live in our heads and we lost touch with our bodies, our signals, and our receptors to the greater environment. We became disconnected with our authentic and powerful selves – our primal connection to Mother Earth and her nurturing gifts. Learning to trust your own wisdom begins with re-connecting to your authentic power. This power is your birthright, your god/dess-given gift, and your most effective guide for your beautiful journey.

Being easy on your Self

.
Being easy on yourself also entails releasing self-imposed expectations. Banish the word ‘should’ from your vernacular as this misleads you into thinking you need to be some-where other than your sacred space. If you catch yourself saying ‘should’, be honest: it’s something you don’t really want to do at all, hey?! Free yourself from this burden and replace ‘should’ with ‘could’. Hoooo, feels lighter already!

Thank the goddess

.
When you are happy, praise goddess
When times are hard, seek goddess
When you are in solace, worship goddess
When you are in pain, trust goddess
And for every other moment, thank the goddess

Personal confusion = social chaos

.
Personal confusion contributes to social chaos. What you currently observe in the exterior world is a reflection of the collective state of mind. Everyone has a role to play in this. Examining your fears and what motivates you leads to self understanding. Being an active participant on your inner journey of exploration is your personal contribution to the evolution of consciousness within the collective mind.

On pregnancy

.
Pregnancy intensifies a lot of things for a woman – it enhances the senses of taste and smell, for example. It deepens her relationship with her support network of friends and family. And, it heightens her intuitive connection with her body and thus, her insights and drive to build a safe, empowered and happy life for her and her baby.

The Elemental Serenity Prayer

God and Goddess
please grant me

The power of water
to accept the things I cannot change
with ease and grace

The power of fire
to change the things I can
with courage and energy

The power of air
to know the difference
through intuition and wisdom

And the power of earth
to handle the situation
with love and respect

Your arms speaks of
winds beneath them,
your heart knows of sweet lands
and the journeys through them.
You are an angel in disguise.

Your world is your construct

And so, begin to understand how you see your world is your own construct. What you believe is what you get. What you desire is what you manifest.

Message from Sri Laxmi

.
Contrary to popular perception, Sri Laxmi is not the goddess of wealth. More accurately, she is the goddess of good fortune, ability and diligence. Wealth is the manifestation of these attributes when they are in flow.

Control freak

Admit it. You’ve been called a control freak more than once in your life. Never fear, once you realise there is no shame in laughing and playing, loving your body, being rich, and throwing your hands up in mock defeat occasionally, you’ll be fine.

Rules of engagement

Brainstorm with such questions as: What do I stand for? What makes me happy? What makes me feel fulfilled? Where are my perfections? What strengths do I have to share? And so on. ... Think of your questions and answers as personal ‘rules of engagement’ for becoming goddess.

You can work out endlessly, starve yourself skinny, envy the size zero celebrities, but none of these pursuits will bring you satisfaction on their own accord – the key to satisfaction lies within your capacity for self-love.

My Goddess Creed
