Winter Solstice

[Guest guest]

Greetings everyone...

 

I am getting ready to leave for Winter Solstice in Florida,

tomorrow...just getting my last few things together...and I just

felt like connecting with all of you for a moment.

 

I attended a one day tantric a few weeks ago and as I was sitting

there doing it...I was thinking...have I gone mad?? Why...do i want

to go and do this again for 3 days at Winter Solstice!?? ha ha!

 

Tantric must be like child birth...there must be a heavy amount of

amnesia afterwards...otherwise, who would ever choose to do it again!

 

I'm just teasing...the benefits, are the reason we do it

"all again"...but in the moment of struggle the longterm isn't

always present in my consciousness! Ha Ha!

 

I had been feeling some apprehension about going to Solstice and my

negative mind was strongly supporting that line of thinking...but

then a few days ago....my positive mind decided to begin weighing in

with it's two bits and I began to remember the magic of Winter

Solstice and what I love about it.

 

So I decided to begin to expand those feelings and thoughts....

 

As I was teaching my last few classes this week, I really focused on

the pranic body and connecting with the flow of the breath and how I

feel completely sustained by it, as I inhale and feel the God force

present within me...boundless and infinite.

 

Some of the people in one of my classes were laughing at me because

I was asking them to become aware of how it feels as the breath

blows over the puckered lips and tongue (we were doing a

pranayam)...notice this moment of beauty and sensuality...being

aware of this intimate contact between you and the God force...and

allow loving feelings to be stimulated in this moment and allow

those feelings to expand in the heart center.......maybe it was just

the way I was explaining it,but, they really thought I was having

way "too much" fun with the breath!! ha ha!

 

I don't know...what can I say...maybe it's all the eights in my

numerology...I'm a lover of the breath? (confession)

 

Walking through the malls this week doing my christmas

shopping...looking around at all the decorations...and not feeling

anything out of the ordinary, in the way of feelings. I found this

interesting, since Christmas used to be my favorite time of the

year....but then realised, that christmas has become an everyday

holiday for me in my heart, since beginning my practice of KY and

SNR and white tantric.

 

So I was happy to notice, that I felt nothing out of the ordinary,

because my "ordinary" is becoming more love based with everyday that

passes, which is what Christmas stimulates in all of us...the love

energy......my heart opens and contracts like everyone else's, but I

find I can recognize this occurrence and respond now more

skillfully, then I ever did in the past...as my heart opens I find

myself sharing/gifting, myself and others, with my genuinity and

light...and others do the same with me. In moments of contraction,

I have tools which I call on to make that return to love. Sometimes

it's a bit messy..but eventually, I always make my way back.

 

I feel much gratitude and light, as I anticipate my upcoming time at

Solstice...willing to be in the process that awaits me

there...willing to move through challenges as they arise...willing

to surrender to what ever comforts will be offered to me...and

willing to evolve my consciousness more and more towards the light

in every moment.

 

May we use this time of the Winter Solstice to remove obstacles in

our way of celebrating in the Light,
