Why do relationships have to be so hard sometimes?

Ask Ahleseah of the Shining Ones; Channeled by Janette

I am thrilled to announce that I will once again be publishing and broadcasting channeled messages, starting now.  It's exciting news for me because, well, channeling threatened my life and well-being to a serious degree at one time, along with religious dogma which has been an ongoing lesson for me, I feel I have finally broken through enough that I am able to start again.  I choose to channel only one guide for these translations, and that is my Spirit Guide; Ahleseah of the Shining Ones, as she has never failed me, and remains by my side diligently, with a playfulness, sense of humour, and loving support and inquisition that I relate to and admire.  Last night I moved many pictures to my desktop, categorized according to how I will use them to complete my Master's culminating project.  While I was doing the channeling, the pictures on my desktop, only those for this specific project, completely re-arranged themselves to form perfect rows and columns spread evenly to fill all of the available space on my desktop, but completely out of order.  Ahleseah has always gotten a kick out of computer games, oh how I have missed, and love how she plays.  Oh, I just realized they're not just in the available space, they're also over top of my row of most important pictures.  Nice.  ;)

WHY DO RELATIONSHIPS HAVE TO BE SO HARD SOMETIMES?

"Inside the spirit of the Source, there is a seed planted which activates the existence of each of us.  Within this seed there is an infinitum of information which defines the Soul Map of the individual.  Upon this map is a key, wherein lies the most valuable lesson of that individual's physical existence.  Everything that the individual experiences from that moment on, points to the key, the lesson which contains the potential of bring the individual to full enlightenment; Oneness with God.  
As human beings in physical form, you have accepted the responsibility, on a soul level, of a life with the potential of decoding this map in order to physically experience your Oneness with God.
For most of You, the lesson of greatest value is through the experience of intimate relationship.  Intimate relationship holds a mirror up for us to view in the Other the aspects of ourSelves that We need to come to terms with, accept and Love unconditionally, in order to experience the God Spark within us, which is the ultimate truth of Who and What We Are.
Upon accepting this responsibility, when you were still only a Soul, formless and infinite, You understood the challenges as purely illusory and veils of which could be seen through of moved aside in order to find that key to the God Spark, and through the lessons that take you there, you will know with absolute certainty Who and What You Are.  
Each of you possesses n internal compass that points you to the perfect person, to the perfect situation, in order for your soul to have these experiences.  Learn to follow this compass, to trust where it takes you, to know that no other person knows better than You where it is guiding you, for it is through your own emotions and intuition that the compass can be navigated.
Trust in yourself and learn from eachother.  Know that it is all for your own pure enjoyment and see the pleasure of the game in all experiences.  Perceive your interactions with others with Lightness, and find the joy in experiencing these connections.
I do believe that if you were to look deep into your experience, those relationships that you perceive as challenges, that you will find pleasure in the experience, that you will feel excited with the anticipation of The Game, exuberant even, in the challenge that is suited so specifically, and so phenomenally precise to only your individual experience and learning and capabilities.
Everywhere you look, your own Soul is sending You signs to assist you and take you to your own expansion of Being in this experience, for that is all that it's here for; The Experience.  And The Experience never ends, so you can't get it wrong, you have an infinitum of chances, as many as you need.  We are infinite energy in motion, a spirally compass of emotion, united by our own unique authenticity... There is no other like you, and in that we are all the same.  
Love Each Other.  Support Each Other.  Trust your intuition, who to talk to, when to walk towards, when to walk away, it is all within You.  Be in the moment.  That is the Way.  Detach from your thoughts and move into your instinct, and I promise you, Lovelies, that the joy in the Game of Life will be found, and your relationship to All will be Great and Profound.
In Light, 
Ahleseah of the Shining Ones"

August 14 Dream Time Healing Circle; Lizard Medicine & Tish'a B'Av

8/13/2016

2 Comments

 
Tomorrow I will be facilitating the fourth Medicine Horse healing circle as we celebrate the dream time through Lizard Medicine on the International day of the Lizard, along with the Jewish Holiday; Tish'a B'Av.
Lizard Medicine is associated with dream time.  Through dreaming we can imagine different futures and decide which one we will choose to materialize.  
I find an interesting correlation on this day with the Jewish Holiday; Tish'a B'Av, which commemorates the falling of the first temple of Jerusalem, along with the second Temple on the same calendar date 655 years later.  Through my heritage I feel a tie to Judaism, as both my parents lived  in Holland during the Holocaust, and recall hiding Jews in their homes from Hitler's Nazis.  Though I was not born to witness this first hand, and stories shared by my family are minimal, I do believe in the energetic and cellular memory which can be genetically passed on, as my life is so shaped by the lives and experiences of my parents; their fears, their victories, their thoughts, their memories.  
The falling of the temples of Jerusalem goes far back into history, so far that one might think how can it affect me now?  Yet the chain of events creates a most powerful thread in time that has brought us to the very state of experiences we find ourselves in now.  Native American teaching has taught me through the wisdom of the late Frank Many Horses, that as far as we can see back into our history, so far are we able to affect our future through the choices that we make now.
As beings on this planet, we live with a Karmic cycle that brings us strong lessons through religion and race;  elements world wide which throughout history have brought us to a state of separation; killing and torturing each other through war, destroying sacred temples and artifacts of our fellow Man in an attempt to control the other's spirit and choices by devastating the physical means to practise one's faith in the way that they choose.
All my life I have worked through the dreamtime with personal struggles, first unconsciously and then consciously, experimenting with the malleable palate of lucid dreaming through which I have conquered demons, faced predators, and been made aware of the state of my subconscious towards certain people and events in waking time.  

Through lucid dreaming I have experienced nuclear warfare and observed whole towns in lockdown, fighting for food tokens, caged in wire fencing and large tarp shelters.  It is my hope that through dreamtime I can work to send out my own frequency signal into the collective consciousness which works to face these extreme fears as a prayer for the future of humanity.  
It's so easy for us to get lost in the life of Western Culture; spinning our wheels to make ends meet against an economy that doesn't want to give us time to stop and experience the true meaning of life; freedom, abundance, the incredible nature of our Earth Mother, the generous and extremely intelligent heart and mind of our fellow human beings.  
Through the wisdom of LIzard's dream, may we hold the visions and sculpt the energy of our actions and wishes, into a world that is peaceful and caring, safe and prosperous... may we send the fears, destruction and devastation of the past into the ethers to be transmuted back into it's original form of Absolute Truth, Unconditional Love, all that is Pure and Good.

I Need Help

5/9/2016

8 Comments

 
I need help and I don't know what to do.  The level of emotional trauma that I've been dealt in my life has been too much for me to know how to handle and I feel that I'm a burden to everyone around me.  I used to have a blog and a youtube page where I posted about a lot of things that I was interested in and things that were happening to me, and I felt a lot safer there because I didn't know the people personally who were connected to me.  They were people who were drawn to what I was posting about and I developed a following quickly.  Now I feel so inhibited because most of my connections are through facebook where the majority of people are my personal friends and family, and although one would think that would feel safer, it actually feels a lot more daunting because I worry more about how I'll affect everybody and what they'll think of me.

There are a lot of things that have happened to me that a few people know about but most people don't.  I'm epileptic.  I had seizures for 18 years and I got this crazy idea one day that I was going to cure myself without medication.  I started meditating and I had a spiritual awakening that sent so much energy through my body which had so many blocks in it, it almost killed me, but I had tapped into a lot of wisdom.  Because I was so sick I couldn't work and I lied to everybody about it because I didn't know how to explain what was happening to me.  I lost my home and screwed my credit, and sold all my stuff, but I kept meditating and working on myself psychologically, and a year and a half later I had my last ever seizure.  It was a really bad one, I had been date raped the night before when I was sick, and it took me a long time to recover, but after that the seizures were no more.  
At that point I had learned a lot about psychology and moving energy.  I wanted to start rebuilding my life and working towards things that were important to me, so when my health was strong enough and I got completely off of drugs and alcohol, I moved out of the city to pursue my dream of having a horse again.  I moved to the Sunshine Coast and one month after I moved there I was stalked and raped by someone who forced himself into my home and put a knife in my face.  I had just met him that night at a party.  I somehow managed to function for the next year, but I had emotionally and mentally disassociated.  I was still dealing with lingering health issues and it was easier to deny the rape had happened... I seemed in somewhat of a trance state that year, I wasn't myself, I lashed out at a lot of people, I also made a lot of new friends and had creative breakthroughs.  I wrote a musical that just came pouring out of me... when I was too emotionally overwhelmed, which was often, I wrote.  A year later when I had too much anxiety to leave my home and was crying incessantly, I was guided to some people, native elders, who supported me, and took me to the police to report the rape.  A lot of the community turned on me when I did that as the rapist was known as a "chief" and "healer", and so I fled two weeks later without telling anyone other than my closest friends from vancouver, my mom,  and my landlord and employer.  The amazing part about that time was that in the state of being between homes and jobs, I bought my horse, and I moved with him to the Okanagan where I knew next to no one but had a couple of connections for a home and work.

I continued on with the energy work that I was doing and that's when I started my blog.  I channeled, and people flew and traveled from around Canada to meet and observe me, as I had quoted some ancient texts and I was predicting future events through the channeling that were spot on.  Things like names and places, but all to do with extra terrestrial intelligence, and I was guided to one man in particular who was doing the same kind of work, but he accused me of being a fraud, and formed a hate group against me.  They made websites about me saying I was a satanist and government agent and that I did porn, and they attached photos of me with my home address and where I worked, it was devastating.  My emotional state for dealing with the rape and ongoing health challenges was enough already, this was by far the lowest and loneliest time of my life.  It was believed by a native elder who was helping me that I was under psychic attack.  There were incidents where my heart was nearly stopping and in the hospital doctors were baffled when multiple doses of adrenaline had no affect at bringing my heart rate up.  At the time while I was in the hospital when this was happening, the man who was responsible for making the websites and leading the hate group's mother died mysteriously in her sleep.

I was still committed to the energy work and was working with birds of prey.  I healed a dying bald eagle in my hands and was guided by spirit to take a tail feather from the eagle and gift it to a man at an indigenous gathering.  He used the feather in a ceremony and after that the psychic attacks stopped and I was able to detach from the energy of the hate group, but the incident left a lot of fear in me.  I started doing ceremony with the Native people who were connected to the  man who had the tail feather, and although they were supportive of me, there was a dynamic there also where I was being looked down upon by a couple of people at those ceremonies, and at one point I was pointed out and verbally assaulted while I cried uncontrollably on the ground in a puddle of my own snot and tears in front of everybody.  The build up of emotional turmoil had reached a point of becoming almost unbearable, but I pushed through and continued with the ceremonies and was supported by those who cared for me.

I was not able to be in any kind of romantic relationship for 8 years after the rape.  I pushed men away with my emotional imbalances and although I finally did manage to date a couple of people, they weren't the right fit, but I suppose they did help me get stronger in myself.

I've continued to do artwork and have put a lot of time and money into it, but selling my paintings has been difficult in the Okanagan.  There's a gallery in New York that I've envisioned visiting for a lot of years, and for my fortieth birthday I decided to start to put effort towards that.  I connected with a man who's involved there and he was interested in me romantically, but as has been the norm, my emotional challenges have overtaken everything and it got to the point where he felt a need to become rather cold towards me, going back on most of his words and becoming passive aggressive in his insults towards me, I don't know what to make of anything that he says to me anymore, and although it's been nothing compared to things that I've endured in the past, it's triggered my survival mode and put me in a state of perpetual anxiety when I try to think or focus on my artwork and my trip to New York.

I miss that time when I was expressing myself online with my blog and my youtube channel and I had no inhibitions about what I wrote or who was reading it.  I felt more purpose driven and clear in what I was trying to communicate.  I know so much about energy healing, all I want is to be able to put that message out there, but then I get stuck on these fears from everything that has happened, and then I wonder, am I a hypocrite, that I'm trying to put a message out there about healing but I can't even get to point of feeling healed enough myself to be able to say it?  There are healers and chiefs who support me but who don't want to talk about it to people for fear of being judged for being too closely affiliated with an attractive woman.  There's a world renowned Shaman who hugged me and cried and told me he's sorry for the difficult of the energy that I carry.  I'm planning an art show in June but most days it seems impossible to stop crying long enough to get any painting done, but I try.  I've been getting fevers that seem like a flu but I sometimes wonder if I'm just too emotionally spent.  I've been doing guided meditations and sleep hypnosis for hours every day for over a month and although it seems to help in the short term, difficult feelings keep coming back.  I've paid for expensive counselling which seems to do the same.

I know so many people have had so many worse things happen than me, I don't want to make any less of that, and I don't want to sound like I'm wallowing and I don't want people to feel sorry for me.  I just want to find a way out of this hole.  I want to be able to ride my horses just because I want to, not because I need to do something to make myself feel better.  It seems everything that I do is to try to feel better.  I want to feel ok in the first place, like I used to.

I need help, but I don't know what to do.  Writing about it does feel better.  I learned the power of sharing at a group I attended in Vancouver, but it's so easy to get caught up in the facade of having a perfect life the way so many people do on social media, especially when I want people to feel that I'm there for them in a healing way, I don't like to reveal my weaknesses, but maybe sometimes that is actually the stronger way.

Good Cop

4/21/2016

There are so many bad cop stories going around, although I've been keeping this story to myself a lot, I'm going to share it because I think a good cop story is over due, although that was a pretty awesome photo I saw of the Vancouver police doing meditation together at the beginning of their shifts.
I have had the misfortune of once again attracting criminal harassment to myself from a neighbour.  As this has been a repeated scenario in my life I am continually building my boundaries higher by taking action to face the bs head on and hopefully stop it in it's tracks.
A neighbour a couple of doors down who I initially was politely aquatinted with, as I am with all the neighbours, decided that him and I are meant to be together and proceeded to  act out towards me with expressions of passion, jealousy, objectification and sheer crazy making, by leaving me love notes and other tokens of affection, spreading lies about me around the neighbourhood about my personal life, taking articles of clothing that I had left around the property, coming into our yard yelling at me at wee morning hours to threaten me with his dog, and destroying my property when I'm not here.  As he is disabled I have not felt overly threatened, albeit it has been unnerving and annoying to deal with at the very least.
I initially gave him one chance by talking to his wife and returning the items he had left for me.  That seemed to keep him at bay for a number of months, but at the first sign that the hullabaloo was starting up again, I called the Oliver police department and reported him for harassment.  As I have had some experience with the police in the past I expected them to make one visit or phone call and then be done with it.   Over the past two months the constable who is on my case has called me to check in a number of times to stay up to date with anything else that may have happened.  He has been by our house two times to talk to me and make sure that I'm alright and to get a feel for the neighbourhood, and has spent a number of afternoons sitting outside my neighbours house watching.
This officer has gone above and beyond his call of duty and it has really helped me to feel a lot more at ease with the situation, and safer in my home, which ought to be a basic human right for everybody.  The neighbour has definitely made himself a lot more scarce, and with my most awesome roomate/landlord and friend building a privacy fence around our yard and a portion of the horse pasture, I think I may almost be able to get past worrying a thing about it at all.

Racism

3/17/2016

0 Comments

 
A First Nations elder and chief once said to me "You don't see colour".   I had been asked to do an energy clearing to release the energy of racism.  It was then that I gained a new perspective on what it even means to experience racism or to be "racist".   Part of being an energy worker is a nature to experience things on an energetic level, which happens on more subtle levels, so for me I might experience; "that person doesn't like me" or; "that person is kind of mean to me", but for a long time it passed right through my awareness that the possibility of them doing those things was in direct correlation with the colour of my skin.  For a long time it did not even register in my mind or my experience.  I have since spent time in India as well as attending First Nations gatherings and ceremony, both of which have opened my eyes further to the very alive and thriving dynamic of racism.  I have seen through other's eyes the judgment of claiming that I do not have an equal right as a white person to acquire and utilize the energetic tool; a feather, or that I can stay out after dark in a foreign country because I do not possess that country's skin colour; that our rights are somehow different. 

I wanted to do another Medicine Horse healing circle and when choosing the date found a Sunday afternoon which correlated with the last day of the International Week of Solidarity for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination.  Resonating with this purpose and having an awareness that the energy of racism within myself is karmically clear and virtually non-existant, I chose this date not realizing that it is also Easter Sunday.  I considered changing it as people who would have otherwise attended will be busy with visiting family, etc., for the holiday.  Then the small voice inside of me started knocking, reminding me of one of the rules that I have agreed to and been initiated into as a Light Worker.  When facilitating energy work, I am to be clear in my intention of doing this work primarily as an extension of the work which I would choose to do for mySelf.  Being the non-conventional, Earth Medicine concocting Fae woman that I am, I immediately knew that the date could not have been more perfectly aligned, and once again the Universe has conspired to make it so.

​I was brought up in a Christian Reformed home, it's an old Dutch religion with roots in Catholicism and Christianity.  I know well the story of Easter; Jesus' reincarnation to the next life by passage way of ascension, although that is not exactly the way it was taught to me, that is the way I perceive it.  What's interesting to me, the correlation of these dates; Easter and the Elimination of Racism, is the element of superiority of White Man which has very much taken over the political, economical and social functioning of a majority of the world, through Christianity.  White supremacy has succeeded in fabricating a global facade for a period of generations, using a "superior" religion as a reason to wipe out thousands of Indigenous people from their own land, taking away their children, their homes, their culture, their lives.  

What's even more interesting is the fact that common sense would lead to suggest that Jesus was in fact not Caucasian, due to him being Israeli, yet he is represented as being so in churches and religious teachings all over the world.  Recently British Scientists and Israeli archeologists have come together to use forensic anthropology to come up with the most scientifically accurate proposed image of Jesus today.

All that being said, I choose my own nature and experiences that have brought me to this present moment, to facilitate a Medicine Horse Healing Circle on this day of Solidarity for the Elimination of Racism as well as this day of Celebration of the Ascension of Christ, with an intention to honour the truth of all circumstance involved. For me this means I can use feathers that are meaningful to me, to clear energy, I can use my own energy to clear racism, and I can do it all on a day that may have otherwise been spent praying to a white Jesus who never really existed that way, and for me there could be no better way to spend this day.  Perhaps there will even be some like minds to join me. ;)
​
In my heart of hearts I know only one race; that is the Human Race.
