Releasing attachment to "outcomes" & sinking into embodiment.

Huh? What do you even mean Millisa lolWell.....First Kia ora my friend, thank you for taking the time to read once again xFor this one we are going to waaaaaay back. Really to the meaning of it all.Life.What are we really here for?What do you believe? It pays to sit with these big questions, really leaning into them & being curious. Even doing some writing about it. Feeling into it. Clarifying it for yourself fully.I know for a fact we are not here to work & buy houses lolAs I have trave...

The Wild Woman Archetype & her insights

The  spirit or essence of the Wild Woman Manifests in many forms within our lives.Energetically she is powerful - as she has travelled to the depths of herself. She has more than likely done some "shadow work" - tending to the soil in the garden of her own mind/beliefs/trauma's OR let's be honest amid this ever evolving work. The key is here that she directs her energy inwards &  recognises this work. Is committed & accountable/responsible. The other main energetic way of ...

The wisdom of the Mother Archetype

Much like the art above - We can look to the great Mother, Papatuānuku, Gaia - Mother Earth for insight around the Mother Archetype.She gives life, she supports, she nourishes, she nurtures. Her energy is all encompassing. She is a creator. She is nature. She flows. She is in harmony with all things. Her support does not discriminate - She does not separate. She is all encompassing. Open hearted. Non judgmental. A Mother to all.In this way ~ When we look to the Wisdom of Mother Earth/Papatuānu...

Embracing Maiden Energies ~ But What do you actually mean??

The Maiden as you know or perhaps may not know - Is one of the Divine Feminine Energy Archetypes.  An Archetype is essentially is a universally recognised symbol, character, theme, or energetic pattern that re occurs across cultures & over time.It represents fundamental human experiences, ways of being or traits that appear in myths, stories, cycles in nature & even psychology.Through these Archetypes & the experience of those who have come before us - We can gain valu...

The Wise Woman & The New Moon

May peace be with you my friend - Welcome & thank you for tuning in. The essence of the energy of that which I am going to share is that of going within. A redirection of our energy & attention from outward - to inward. It is a slowing down, a listening & actually a tuning in.Tuning into that which is within you & of course that which is without. One of connection, intuition, moving slowly, foundational energies of trust, acceptance, nourishment. One of gaining insight, heed...

The ever changing nature of life

The one true constant in life ~ Is that it is always changing. As we ground into this knowing - we are called to move with life.I feels as though many of us can relate to a feeling of fighting against life or perhaps non acceptance of what is, at one stage or another......This, as you know is draining. It is also a fair call.  It is a natural "reaction" buuuuut ultimately it doesn't serve.It drains our energy. To move with life is to consciously choose to be open & learn (in the be...

What if I don't know what to do?

I remember feeling silly doing things that feel completely normal to me now. I remember the feeling of unsureness, frustration, clumsiness & straight up unfamiliarity when I would embark - (I use that word cause well it really was like I was on a journey to somewhere I really didn't know) on these little missions for myself. Whether it be going off into the bush to try "connect with myself" or sitting with a journal in front of me.Underneath these energies was a knowing that I needed to do s...

We have seasons you know..

Can you reflect for a moment & recognise certain seasons in your life? What season may you be in now?As you know I am a great fan of recognising cycles, patterns & symbology within life - it feels as though it is the underlying code or information that is presented to us. I call it reading between the lines.As you may also know - The Divine Feminine Archetypes crossed my path a couple of years ago & REALLY resonated. The timing of when it happened was of course perfectly aligned...

Carving out time to be.

I have come to know the early mornings as my sacred time. It has not always been this way haha xI used to have to drag myself out of bed to be honest. Sleep was my refuge from life.In my journey back to myself - I had to create space to connect with "me" - to just be. Within this space & time.  It was often slower, it involved creativity, it involved connecting with myself & my body, it involved learning new things - opening myself up to new ideas & ways of being, It may be just...

My Sister of the Stars & the Lions Gate Portal

It is an energetically auspicious day tomorrow. Last year when I was at Vipassana - My "neighbour" I called her, ended up becoming a beautiful woman in my life I now call my sister of the stars. Granted - Yes we were in silence for the 10days - but on the lifting of the silence we shared & our connection moving forward was forever solidified.Often because I work with crystals people ask me about Astrology - & whilst in interests me - The subject is so vast & deep, I just do not have ...

AFFIRMTAIONS

Essentially they are a tool my friend. A positive statement to ground back into - within your healing, learning, growing journey of life.Affirmations are here for you to return to throughout your days - in order to realign your mindset towards that which you wish to  create within.To come back to what you are embracing. An anchor of sorts.They are a tool that is readily, freely available to you - that you can easily use to support yourself within your current journey. ...

Personal accountability is like glue

As I sit with the energy of personal accountability & what it means to me. It feels like the glue that will help "things" to stick. It speaks of personal responsibility, commitment & self discipline.All these energies are the glue that help new ways of being form. Creating & supporting the momentum that we need to carry on....

Faith

I notice these days I make many choices on Faith & TrustFaith that life is working for me.Faith that if I continue to make choices that serve me - that life will work out.Trust that life is working for me.Faith that as I bring my awareness to different things that arise - that I am amidst the cycles of change.Trust that life will present me with experiences that will show me where my work is.Faith that things will work out as they are meant to.Trust in the energy of surrender & allowing....

Cheers to the freaking weekend

And I did! ALOT. For a long, long time. Till slowly I came to realise it wasn't a lifestyle that I wanted to live & I really didn't want my boys looking for a girl that lived her life like I was. Who knows how it will really pan out - But I want to know that I did my best. So that was then that seed was planted.  Granted after that decision life continued to go downhill but anyway...The process of not drinking anymore or having the same associations with it has been a long one for me. I...

The Illusion that is comfort.

I'm not quite sure how this is going to go, but Im sitting here in the Crystal Room ready to go within & share whatever comes up. Should be interesting lol There is a knowing within - that comfort limits, (or it did for me anyway)  that it is an illusion of sorts. That perhaps it is something that we have adopted from others around us, society, a self soothing of sorts - but does it serve? In my case it did not....

The power of presence

We run on programs that are formed throughout our lives - Many are formed during the first 0-7years but we continue to learn & acquire concepts & beliefs throughout life.Another word for a program is a belief.It is what we match everything up against as we move through our days - life either aligns with our beliefs or it does not.This interesting thing is - some beliefs we are aware of - but many we are not.Most of this "programming" or ingrained beliefs live in our subconscious mind - t...

In spite of.....I choose

We must "walk" towards that which we wish to create. Sometimes in spite of that which is unfolding around us OR perhaps within us.You have the power within you to channel (focus) your energy in a way that serves you.We know life will not always be the way we think it should be. Hey that's life. It has its own plan & that is ok. What matters are the choices we make - In spite of it not quite being how we think it should be OR more so, committing to aligned action with our highest good regardl...

Dear Diary..

I place journaling under the umbrella of what I call Mahi ora - Life work. Kinda like the home work of life or part the foundations of it really. The extra stuff - or what we perceive to be "extra" which really isn't - Its at the core of it all. Getting to know ones self.The process of writing is a form of self expression. This aligns with the Throat Chakra - Which as you may know is also aligned with  Authenticity - In this way you may see how this particular form of self expression (...

Follow your light

Beneath the phrase "Follow you light" - Is the question - What is my light? This inquiry itself is part of the passage way to the light. Often in the not knowing; begins the process of knowing.Learning what our light is, can often be accompanied by learning what our light is not. What does not align. What perhaps is the "false light" in our lives AKA comfort, ways of being that may feel good but do not serve. These things are often aligned with our lower self (our shadow - the opposite if you wi...

Perceived blockages are yet to be discovered opportunities for change

It's my new word. It's not like I haven't used this word before, it's more like - I am focusing on the the energy of this word & using it more often. I choose to see opportunities - where before there perceived blockages or perhaps just something I don't like haha These perceived blockages or more so any resistance or things that you feel cannot change...are calling you to make different choices & perhaps shift your perspective.They are an opportunity. It doesn't seem like it - in f...

Journaling comes from connection

I was actually going to put the header - Journaling is a skill. But after sitting with that sentence & a beautiful conversation at the beginning of the week, then connecting the dots in silence - I realise while yes it takes a certain amount of skill I suppose - But what it really takes is CONNECTION.Being able to access, recognise & decipher what is within - then express/communicate that onto paper.Journaling is a powerful healing practice. When we look at it as a form of self expressio...

What is our highest good?

I'll probably do some research right after this, but for now - I would like to share on what I have come to learn the term "Highest good" is to me.To be honest I'm not quite sure where I heard this first, but it has come to be a personal guide for me, as well as what I have come to call "high vibrational feelings". These are a couple of the foundational concepts or I guess new beliefs I have adopted for myself that I feel "serve" me & well;  all those around me.North Star type vibes.To ...

The Mother Archetype

Yes she is a mother, but not always. This archetype speaks of an all encompassing energy of what it is to be a mother - in nurture, fruition, support, acceptance, unconditional love, safety, connection to nature & guidance. The Mother has been through a period of growth and self discovery. She has now reached a sense of maturity and fruition. She embraces all that cross her path with love, support and acceptance....

Survival Mode - Am I in it?

Yes.....I lived there for sometime. Now, however no. Kia ora my friend, thanks for stopping by. I send love to you & I'm here to let you know you are not alone. Ya know I think "survival mode" for us all, is something that we can all relate to at some stage in our lives, likely in different degree's also.  Perhaps in the present or perhaps looking back in hindsight.For me personally....I didn't really know what it was or had even heard of it when I guess I was in the thick of it. I...

Embracing our innate potential

New Moon Blessings my friend! Whilst the energy is in general thought of as low in relation to the New Moon - It is also a time of planting seeds of intention. Just like placing a dormant seed into the earth - So too can we plant these seeds of intention to nurture through out the coming Lunar Cycle to bring into fruition.This can look any number of ways - This is your mahi ora - Life work, to figure out what it looks like for you. Mostly though - it is a commitment to yourself & the carving...
