Soul Song Guidance is dedicated to the exploration of Transformation. One of the most beautiful opportunities I believe we have in life is the on-going process of Awakening! If we choose a path of transformation on all aspects of our being, we naturally follow the cycles of natures dance, Birth, Death & re-Birth! It has been my experience that if we are dialed into the guidance of our heart & Soul, if we heed these inner promptings, the transformational dance can't be avoided.

Soul Song Guidance springs forth from dancing this dance consciously, for the last 20 years. I love being fully engaged in these processes, both the deep dives into my own inner Underworld, as well as the renewed flowerings of Emergence.

As a Shadow Whisperer, I have an affinity toward the depths, of Shadow work & Death. I feel these are the very places Light needs to be shined most, in order for Wholeness to be lived. For me, working with these very sensitive places in myself is where I receive blessings of both Humbleness & Strength. I realize over & over, I am not the one in control, that there is a Force much bigger & grander at work on my behalf. It is when I surrender to mini-deaths, I am most aware I am dancing with God/Goddess.

It is through this dance with the Divine in the Darkness, that the purest Light & Joy find radiant expression through me.

I invite whomever feels called to allow these writings, experiences, stories to lend encouragement, support & a kindred spirit in times of Awakening & Transformation!

opening deeper

Love.  This is the month of February, of Valentines Day, of the celebration of Love.  Actually it is the celebration of our experience of romantic love!  The bliss, the electricity, the giddiness and butterflies for 'the one'!  This love is full of excitement, the thrill of the unknown's of the person who has sparked us.  We feel the energy in the tummy, the preoccupation in the mind, the sexual charge that sometimes we confuse with the heart . . . and yes, we feel the beat quickening of the heart!  It is a safety zone of all is well, fabulous, fun and new! And indeed it is! The chemistry is literally fueling through our body. The cells, the brain, the hormones, the heart are all touched by this chemistry of 'love'.

I believe it is safe to say we have all experienced this at least once in our lives.  It hangs us on the edge of opening to another, opening to ourselves, and simultaneously dangles the fear of heartache that we imagine may be just around the corner!  One of my favorite teachers, Stephen Levine and his wife Ondrea, teach about healing into the death and dying process.  However, the work that they share is really about healing our fears, and inevitably opening the heart to whatever shows up.

Their teachings of remaining open in the face of fear, pain, dissolution at death, I find applicable in all area's of life.  Because it is about living in each moment more fully ~ no matter what!  As we move deeper into our relationships, particularly our romantic relationships, all of our fears are eventually brought to the surface.  It is then that the practices of staying present, connected with our emotions of vulnerability, insecurity, fear of loss, resistance to change, jealousy, etc. has the opportunity to heal these sensitive spots and bring us closer to our Beloved.

The challenge is staying present. Breathing. Allowing.  Just as we all have experienced the excitement and expectations of romance, we have just as assuredly felt these moments when the heart wants to clamp down from it's wide open spaciousness.  When the mind begins to run with stories of impending doom and the pain of heartache!  We want to blame, shame and protect our fragility in any way we can.  Our core issues of feeling less than, maybe unlovable, possibly the fatal loss, touch off a myriad of deeply buried stories that only 'love' has the power to exhume!

But such power comes forth from within us in these times of vulnerability. To stay present and watch. Keep breathing and feel fully the pain, the fear, the constriction. This is what opens the door of the heart even wider to a greater love.  This is a love that brings two lovers together, with deeper intimacy, clearer understanding and more compassion. These qualities extend to and through both lovers.  We are able to touch in the other, what they are truly needing and we are able to give these same qualities to ourselves.  Allowing without the stories of blame or how we think 'things should be', frees up space to experience 'how things really are'.  This in itself is expansive and begins to help us cultivate a deeper love for ourselves and our partner.  It cultivates compassion and gentleness for ourselves.  No matter which side of the coin our actions are on, it cultivates raising our consciousness.

I feel blessed to have walked the path of cultivating conscious relationships.  I feel blessed and empowered by the teachings of those who have walked before me and shared their experience.  One of the most important blessings in this life has been to have the skills to stay Present ~ Breathe ~ Allow.  The rewards have been a maturation process in how Love lives through me in my life, the moments of deep connection with my Beloved that have come through the moments of feeling most threatened,  and the bond that this forges.  

Thank God/Goddess for the spiritual tools I have been given and the ongoing practices that support my learning to open and heal at the heart level!  There is so much gratitude for the spark that brings us together, but for me the magic is most prominent in the consciousness it takes to deepen in relationship, consciously, with an ongoing expansiveness that comes through the intimacy that grows when the 'charge' subsides.  The fire that is kindled in its place which grows flames in a more powerful way!

It is the excitement of creating sacred relationship that thrills me. It is the intention to build and sustain a love that continues to open my heart to the fullest with my husband that calls from my soul.  I have trust that this will be our path together, if it is the will of the Universe.  The practicing of opening, healing, breathing and allowing in the present moment is the practice for Love, romantically, which I have the pleasure of watching as it spills over into all aspects of life!

Valentine Blessings for all ~ the gifts of Love which stem from surrendering always with an open heart into all that keeps us separated from our ability to live in Love.
