The Natural State

I wanted to write a bit about what is occurring in my life recently.

Can you say more incredible healing?

Can you say peace, light, gratitude and forgiveness?

Yes, all these things are totally here all the time, shifting how i think, move and act. In my heart there is this new profound sense of Peace. This Peace represents a Trust that I have finally come full circle. Last year around this time I was playing a lot with Trust. I was moving into a deeper relationship with trusting God and trusting myself and the challenges in my life. Knowing that all is put in to place to help me grow and provide deeper reflection into what and where my heart wants to go, what direction I am being asked to move into. I had many experiences of very specific guidance to Trust and and Let Go. These were very scary proposals for me though, for I was experiencing a lot of pain and sadness at my life situation. To Trust and Let Go meant to simply be okay with what was occurring. I had to Trust even the hardest circumstances and not try to jump to any conclusions about them. Every moment I was being guided very specifically as to how to maneuver into a deeper relationship with my heart's calling. I listened so carefully and did a lot of writing to become clearer on what that was. By writing and conversing with the heart, things become revealed so that understanding can occur. This understanding then creates the circumstance for you to be able to put this understanding into action. You let go of old beliefs and ideas and move into the clarity that your heart has guided you to. Letting Go into the Trust that this is a moment to moment process and is actualized by the presence you give to this state of awareness - being in alignment with your heart.

The difference about my life occurrences now is that this is not just an "either/or" situation. My heart IS now moving everything it feels. There is no decision about it or an unveiling of what that is. My heart is fully opened and moves me to experience life through this pleasure of divine love. Sure there are moments when this sometimes feels more open than not, but the Letting Go has happened, and now I get to be where I let go into - which is this energetic environment of Faith and Love - Our natural state (the same state in which we were born into and which every child is moving and living through).

Fear does come up! And it probably always will! To think that I could live and love in this world full of so much confusion and conditioning and not experience fear is pretty much impossible. I actually invite my fear in all the time, and am learning to experience it as just another level of loving. My fear guides me and shows me where I am holding back and what really wants to be looked at and taken care of. My fear just shows me how to love it all and how to dispel old beliefs about myself, others, and the world. The experience of fear, if not accustomed to be worked with can throw us off guard, can spiral us into a very bleak experience and can shadow our dreams so that we stay very blocked, stagnant and small. When this Love happens in the heart which is Completeness and The Knowing that "I am Okay no matter what." Then fear has no where to live and is dissolved or buffeted. It still stirs the soul, it still makes the heart beat faster, but it is allowed to do all these things in the most comfortable arms of the Beloved - The Heart - This Complete Love - Complete Faith. It requires many many quiet moments, courage to be with it, meditation, and calm environments to be witnessed. It is then through these many experiences of this Greatness that it then begins to envelop All that is not it. It is like a full circle inner tube holding you in an ocean of Unknown. We then realize even this Ocean of Unknown is also this Great Love and we experience even more Faith, Openness, and Love.

The heart knows, let it unfold into what it truly wants. Your desires are profound and beautiful and want you to listen to them and experience them. The mind can assist, but the heart-mind needs to be your guide.

So this has occurred for me on a very deep embodied level, one to where i now feel comfortable writing about it as my own experience. Letting go into Faith and Trust is a very private experience. It is not loud or expressed outwardly, but is a subtle shift internal that moves our lives forward like eyelash wings fluttering us awake.

Our experience of the Divine is also very private and is like a relationship reflecting the perfect relationship with love and partnership. A new person has come into my life and this love is changing everything Again! Just so you know, there is no final resting place in all this, from my experience it just deepens forever into the Flower of the Great Mystery. We are so blessed to be experiencing this life to be held in this devotional process, in this awakening into our Creator's Love, there is nothing else more beautiful! No Science more important!

So to say the least, this new person, who also has these experiences of Divine Love and Openness and Complete Faith - has arrived in my life, right on time. In fact I knew he was coming, but I am still pinching myself every so often just to make sure I am still "Awake"! To Love God now seems easy! To be loved by another in this complete way, to experience my completeness through anther's love is now the new challenge! Now my stuff about unworthiness is really coming up! But to bring this piece of writing full circle I want to share about this new experience about letting Go and Trust.

I had a belief that this Divine Love is only perfect with God, only to be trusted in here with myself and the Spiritual - The safety nets of my own vibrating heart, beneath my rib cage - only I can arrive here alone.

I am experiencing this belief being taken away. The embodied experience of another's love matching the love of God is changing me yet again. In fact it was so deep that I experienced a part of my soul return to me so that I feel more whole than ever. When I was traumatized as a young child a part of me left to be with God in this Wholeness, believing that it was not safe to be in my body and completely whole. After experiencing this level of Trust and Love from another I went through a series of deep shifts and healing where I witnessed this piece finally coming home and returning to me. So two things happened: A new experience of Wholeness with myself. And a new experience of Wholeness with another. The embodied experience of God's love coming from another, where this absolutely Nothing to fear and there is absolutely no holes in my faith in it, dispelled any last fears and beliefs that really I will fall, that this safety net cannot really hold me. I will be abandoned, abused and will again be alone with myself and God picking up the pieces and lovingly putting them back. For ten years I have been doing this, sometimes gracefully, sometimes angrily. But I have always had the courage to work with it. I know a part of me had not returned and I know a part of me was still being whipped around in a constant state of trauma due to what happened to me as a child. This unconscious state of trauma was still popping up and making decisions that were recreating this trauma in my life. I was always experiencing the wholeness and then the trauma and then back to wholeness. Yet this wholeness was still outside of me, never fully embodied.

Today and Yesterday were the first days that I feel this wholeness completely embodied and completely in Trust that his Love Is.

A Message from VERONICA

Many souls when separating from Source to experience the linear environment feel a sense of aloneness that is difficult to overcome. Compounded by dramas, the feeling of isolation can leave one feeling powerless in the seeming vastness of the physical time line.

To have the dense experience the sense of singularity is strong within the psyche of the incarnate. It does not, however, have to be exclusive from the soul's participation. It is possible to have the physical, hand in hand with the comfort of your soul.

The entity from which you come is always present in your energy. It is possible to focus in the linear while being interwoven in the fabric of your soul.

Attempt to reach within yourself to make the connection. Your energy will reach back to you in response to your loneliness. It was always there and it wishes for your awareness of the connection.

You are never alone. It is only the perception of separateness that confuses you.

Reach for your soul. It's already extended to you.

Even now.

Go ahead.

You will not be disappointed.

Reach.

Reach within.

The 6 Keys to Spiritual Dating

“Spiritual Dating” or “Conscious Dating” is an enlightened way of meeting and dating. There are no rules or expectations, and it’s about being true to oneself and staying in the flow. Conscious dating is more fun than the traditional style of dating, and it yields much better results! As we raise our vibrational frequencies and approach fifth dimensional living, it’s more and more important to practice Spiritual Dating with respect to meeting a life partner as our thoughts and feelings are manifesting extremely fast!

The 6 Keys to Spiritual Dating:

#1 REMEMBERING OUR DIVINITY:
Realize that every person is a DIVINE ASPECT and before incarnating, we agreed to forget our Divinity. We chose to be here on Earth for this incredible time in history, so be joyful and grateful for ‘waking up’ and being part of this planetary ascension. Loving ourselves unconditionally and letting ourselves express this tremendous JOY that is our Divine Essence is the basis of Spiritual Dating. Allow this love of self and joy to radiate outward and attract the same. It’s much healthier and fulfilling when two souls come together in joy and bliss rather than in desperation and loneliness.

#2 BEING PRESENT and OPEN:

When we are truly PRESENT in the moment, we are OPEN to meeting the love of our life because we are paying attention. Enjoy each encounter, whether or not that person is a potential mate. When standing in line at the grocery store, book store, post office… (anywhere!), pass up reading the magazines or thinking about what you are going to make for dinner. Instead, be receptive and conscious of who might be coming into your space. ENJOY the moment you are experiencing NOW! Be bold and say hi to people, initiate conversations and SMILE.



#3 BEING REALISTIC:

Chemistry comes in all shapes and sizes. Realize that our “types” have most likely been created by mass media programming and therefore the collective consciousness. Break free of this illusion, the matrix, if you will, and feel someone’s SOUL, their “beingness”, their heart. Our life partner may not look like the “type” we have been conditioned to see as attractive. They may be taller, shorter, thinner, or thicker, or even the same gender, so let go of the attachment to how someone appears and look deeper. As we thoroughly enjoy and experience every person we encounter, we can appreciate their uniqueness and see their Divinity. Listening to our guidance and knowing that we may be drawn to someone because they are our life partner, or maybe for another reason, perhaps they have some important insight or information for us or vise versa.



#4 BEING REAL:

Being real means letting one’s guard down and getting out of ego; being oneself without trying to empress or show off. When in a relationship, true selves and personalities are eventually revealed and observed by our partner, so it’s more efficient to be genuine from day one. By expressing our true selves, we send out that energy to the quantum field and magnetize a partner that is also being REAL!



#5 LISTENING

When on a date, practice active LISTENING. Instead of planning out what we are going to say next, or worrying about how we look, active listening involves being present and focused on the other person while they are speaking. With an open heart, listen and feel what the other person is saying. Be there for them 100%. When talking, speak from the heart, and allow the conversation to flow naturally. Allow time for silence and just being together. Remember to breathe and relax.



#6 STAYING IN THE FLOW:

Getting out of our head and following our heart, our feelings and the current energy is the essence of staying in the flow. When we are tapped into our Divinity, we know what to do, where to go, who to talk with etc... When in the flow, there is no ‘thinking things through’ for hours, days or weeks….it just happens. It’s part of being present and open. Being open to whatever is in our highest and best for each moment and trusting that we are being perfectly guided by our higher selves (that part of us that always remembers its Divine connection), is the key to staying in the flow. Letting go of expectations and preconceived ideas about what something “should” look like, or how something “should” be is essential.



Spiritually dating creates a fun, enriching experience to be savored and thoroughly enjoyed. When these six keys are put into practice, results happen quickly, and it’s possible to be experiencing a blissful, devoted, loving relationship in no time, so ENJOY the process!
