Fall Equinoxe Balancing Meditation

 

(Une traduction de cet article en Français se trouve au bas de la page!)

.

As we’re reaching the middle of the astrologic year which started with the Aries in April, the Sun is moving into balancing sign of Libra tonight.

The sign of the scale and the fall equinoxe during which the daylight is equal to the night, give us the possibility to balance our Yin-Yang energies, the Anima-Animus side of our personalities and achieve balance within us.

This day is specifically interesting also to focus on the most important relationships in our life and the way we link to the other one; as you may know, Libra is the sign of the “You and me” relationship in the zodiac.

Let’s remember that the more balanced we are inside, the more we will reflect this balance state in the outer world!

May you find great balance in the center of your being…
With much Love,
Rita

Suggestions for tonight’s meditation practice:

 - You can start your meditation with some pranayamas (breathing technique) seperatly equal times with Ida-Lunar energy (left side nasal breathing , closing the right one) and Pingala-Solar energy (same with the right nasal).

- Then, gently let go of the control of your breath and simply focus on the harmony and the unity you’ve created in your entire being, in the center nadis, Sushumna.

- Enjoy yourself as a whole, united being of Light…

Use your creative powers with visualizations!
Help yourself with the images of the Sun and the Moon or even the symbol of the Yin and Yang. You can also focus on a mandala like a Sri Yantra or choose to simply remain in your silence and stillness… Yummy:)

Enjoy your meditation!

“Nous sommes déjà ce soir à la moitié de l’année astrologique qui a débuté en Bélier au moins d’Avril; le Soleil entrera ce soir dans le signe de la Balance (23h EDT, 3h09 du matin heure de Greenwich cette nuit).

Le signe de l’équilibre et l’équinoxe d’Automne, seul moment de l’année  ou le jour sera égal à la nuit, nous donnent par leur symbolique,  la possibilité d’équilibrer nos énergies Yin-Yang, d’unir notre Anima et notre Animus afin d’installer l’harmonie au cœur de notre Etre.

Il est aussi intéressant aujourd’hui de prêter tout particulièrement attention à la façon dont nous nous lions à l’autre, tout particulièrement dans la relation à deux puisque le signe de la Balance représente le « Toi et Moi » dans le zodiaque.

Rappelons nous qu’en installant l’équilibre en nous, nous l’installons aussi autour de nous et dans le monde!

Je vous souhaite une belle méditation en connection avec votre centre  Eternel…

Pleins de Lumière et d’Amour à tous et à toutes,

Rita

Quelques suggestions pour la méditation demain:

- Vous pouvez commencer par vous centrer en pratiquant quelques Pranayamas (exercice de respirations en conscience) en respirant d’abord par le canal Lunaire d’Ida (narine gauche) tout en bouchant votre narine droite. Faites ensuite la même chose avec le canal Solaire de Pingala (narine droite). Respectez le même nombre de respirations des deux côtés.

- Ensuite ne portez plus d’attention sur votre respiration, concentrez vous seulement sur le bien être, l’harmonie et l’unité installés maintenant en vous grâce à ces respirations alternées. Votre canal central, Sushumna, est parfaitement équilibré.

- Appréciez l’Unité dans laquelle vous baignez dans l’instant présent…

Utilisez vos possibilités créatrices, elles sont infinies !

Aidez vous par exemple des images du Soleil et de la Lune ou du Yin et du Yang pour méditer. Vous pouvez aussi vous concentrer sur un Mandala comme le Sri Yantra, ou encore juste apprécier le silence et votre quiétude…

Excellente méditation ! “

6th Sense: Gifted Children And Their “Imaginary” friends

It’s a very common thing to hear stories about kids talking with their “imaginary friends”. These manifestations can happen in very different ways; they may see ladies or gentlemen or family members who have passed talking to them in the living room, asking them questions in a pacific way.

 They also may say that they play with luminous or Angelical beings who visit them at the tip of their beds… Shall parents be afraid of these types of reactions from their kids? And most of all, how is the best way to react when destiny gave us such gifted children?

Taking the “right” decision for their good: a sensitive question

Parents are usually disconcerted by the comments of their kids and they usually don’t know how to react, which is understandable; there is no school to be good parents, worse, there is no school to be good parents of gifted children…! Some of them may wonder if their kid is really sane and can choose for their good to bring them to a check up with an analyst. Usually very quickly, after a few sessions the kids are convinced, that these visions are “only in their head” and that it’s not “politically correct” according to their environment to see these type of manifestations; then they only yearn to one thing, being like everybody, being “normal” again and they simply “forget”…saying that they repress, would be more correct because one day or another their abilities will emerge again.

Other parents, with or without spiritual beliefs, notice that their children have a strong mystical inclination even though they’re not given any religious education. They want to be baptized, they want to pray every night before sleep and even ask to meditate at very early ages…These parents choose to be more open and supportive and start to exchange with their kids, knowing that they’re mentally perfectly healthy and that there are maybe unknown territories that their child is reaching which is worth discovering… When they make the effort to connect to their children’s world, they start to live stunning experiences; the children start to open also more to them and share with more confidence with their parents telling them things that they would keep normally hidden deep inside not to “disturb mummy and daddy”…Their lost keys are found miraculously thanks to their children’s affirmation who says that “the lady who speaks without opening her mouth” told him that they were under the sofa… They realize that the date given by their daughter on a calendar for an important business deal is exactly the moment where the deal happens without having planned any appointment with the client that day and time…

The freedom to express who they are

When parents have such an open attitude, they prevent any feeling of loneliness for their children who feel very often different and not understood. Very often, Indigos* adults remember a very lonely path in their childhood and a gap between being a child but thinking like an adult. 

Energetically talking, until 7 years old we’re still very close to our original nature and our ability to use our 6th sense is still very sharp and “rough”. As the conditioning of the environment is not too strong yet, during these first years of our life we can even still have clear reminiscences of our past lives.

 Some children start to talk about their “previous family” and their “other mummy”. Recently, a team of psychologists and psychic searchers lead an interesting inquiry with a 5 years old Scottish boy in Glasgow: the child was pretending to remember his vacations with his “previous family” and was perfectly describing his daily life thousands of kilometres away from his hometown. With the help of his mother and the professional team around him, he went back to the exact place he was describing and where he never put a foot in his present life; the village, the house and the detailed description of the decoration inside, the neighbour’s identity (with names) and even the description of the dog they used to have (the animal wasn’t alive anymore when the inquiry was done…) everything was perfectly fitting to reality. The little boy’s emotion and sadness (the nostalgia not to be anymore with his “previous brothers and sisters”) was obviously real…He was keeping saying to everyone “I told you that it’s all true…” After coming back from the place, he never mentioned this story again to his family; he accepted that he was now in “another story” in a “new family” and most of all, he was in peace that people were believing him…

The future of our planet

Conscious parenting can definitely change our world. To the parents who live this dilemma I’d say, try to understand these kids and don’t burn them on the swot of your own fears… Their reactions can be disturbing of course but there is various literature about intuitive children or Indigos* relating about similar stories that can help you. You may also contact an organization which gives the possibility for parents to organize gatherings and exchange about their daily experience with gifted children. Living with such sensitive children doesn’t happen by chance; it also gives you the possibility to wake up to your own sensitivities. Through their story you may start to remember your own experiences as a child that you buried deep inside you because they were not fitting to the background you were raised in…Remember how you felt that a person was not “nice” simply by intuition or how you used to have premonitory dreams about a place where you have never been and that by chance, you saw a few days after during a walk…and all the déjà vu you’ve experienced etc…You may then realize that you are gifted yourself…

To the professionals who work with children living these types of phenomenon I’d say please, take the time to talk with them and make a deep inquiry to know better if the visions of these kids are only stories because of a simple need of more attention or if they are really experiencing a connection with something different, other beings and realities. Sometimes it takes years for people to reconnect to their abilities because their memories of other realms were “erased” during their childhood…

It’s important to know that with the quick evolution of consciousness of our planet, these children will be more and more numerous and that the indigos were preceding the Crystal* children, even more skilled who are starting to incarnate a few years ago.

Today, it’s the responsibility of the scientific community to study these questions and to give empirical proofs to valid what millions of children and adults have experienced through history and what religious and mystics reported in spiritual scriptures around the globe.

These sensitive children can be the incarnation of a Peaceful generation on our planet… at least…

This article is dedicated to all the inspirational children who crossed my path one day : to Samantha, Matthieu, Alec and Matt,  Julien,  Sophie, Louis and Santiago… and to all the adults and children around the world who will feel the resonance of these words within their heart. 

*Indigos children, so called because their Auric field is saturated by the colour of the 3rd eye and symbolize strong intuition, started to be born in the 60’s. The Crystal children started to arrive around 2000. Their level of consciousness is very high and their expectations toward life, community and unity are remarkable and they’re also unusually skilled… Some autistic persons and children with Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorders (ADHD) are known to be Indigo/Crystal children.

Spring Renewal

As the first flowers are blossoming in our gardens after a long sleepy winter, let’s remember that spring is also the period of the year to make some “housecleaning” within and around us and open our body and mind to a new rebirth.

 

Have you listened to Nature lately? The chants of the birds and the colors around us are announcing the coming back of the expected spring.  After winter and its period of introspections, cosy pleasures and storing energy with heavy dishes that protect our body from cold, let’s start detoxifying during the best period of time to do it; the intermediate season of spring when nature wakes up and comes back to life is perfect for a fresh start… It’s time to open the windows of our body again.

 

 Cleaning our body internally is becoming more important as our environment becomes more polluted and increasesthe stress in our system. The spring detoxification helps us to loose weight, to clear our mind and to restore our energy and sense of well being: our outlook changes totally, with a more positive approach of life.

 

 In Chinese medicine, the Zang Fu system (represented as a pentagram) reveals that there are 5 periods during the year that matches our 5 vital organs in our body. In fact, we’ve now entered the period that correspond to the liver. It’s now time to release all the emotions that load us down and which are symbolically represented by this organ; no more place for angers, doubts and grudges, it’s time to sweep them all out!

 

Doing some sweeping can remind us the tradition of “big spring cleaning” in occidental countries, absolutely necessary after winter: all carpets out, let’s get rid of all the accumulation done during the long winter period!

After all, human beings are mammals who need to live also according to the basic need to hibernate, aren’t they?

 

In the Eastern countries, the monsoon season starts around May, this is actually the best period for Panchakarmas: a treatment with the use of plants and oils in order to clean the body up during 7, 14 or 21 days.

Ayurvedic doctors say that the rainfalls outside symbolically represent the cleaning we proceed inside. I believe that, people feel also more positive and fresh inside and outside due to the negative ions produced by rainfall. Doing some meditation during rainfalls or monsoon is also very helpful to clean up our mind and negative thoughts.

 

The funny thing is that this period of cleaning also fits with some religious cleaning practices: for the Jewish community it’s now time to get rid of all the “hametz”: every single dust, mould or crumb has to disappear from the houses and cupboards before the celebration of “Pessah”, the Passover. Through the symbol of the egg, Christians also celebrate birth and resurrection which is specific to the period of Easter.

 

In Feng shui, spring is also an important moment for a making up; what to keep, what to give, what to get rid of… Old, useless objects are blockages for a fluent energy in the house that represent our inside world, our mind, our biological system…

 

In kundalini yoga, kriyas, a combination of postures, breathing techniques and mantras, are also very powerful tools to help us to unburden our body…and mind.

   

Mother Earth, in her infinite abundance and generosity offers us everything to help us in this detoxification: plants, veggies, essential oils, there are lots of ways to clean up our body.

Rosemary, sage, black radish, cherry stalk, artichoke, fennel are the top ingredients to clarify a “toxic” liver, even though the list of the “top cleaning team” for the liver could have been much longer. Usually, the bitter tastes are very good to help the hepatic functions. The detoxification process will also support the other 6 channels of elimination in our body: lungs, kidneys, colon, skin, lymphatic and blood system, everyone will be thankful for this internal shower!

 

Let’s keep in mind that a cleaning done with some awareness will offer us much better result: it makes a huge difference if we clean up our body mechanically, making it by habit, or with putting the intention to get rid of all types of toxins: physical and subtle ones due to a fat diet but also from negative thoughts that we might have had. They are actually the number 1 enemies to Harmony and Health of our beings.

 

Now, let’s emerge from grey, offering our winter coats to the past season, both in a tangible and a symbolic way and let’s enjoy this wonderful rebirth that is offered to us every year in union with the Elementals.

 

 

 

I wish you a happy spring renewal!
