Balancing our Inner Battle

“Raise your daughters to shout, to scream, to hold their heads up high for being themselves before society tries to teach them how to silence themselves, how to wear shame like it’s a second skin. Let them taste rebellion from the moment they are born and watch them become the flames to start a revolution.”

– Nikita Gill

This quote ignites a passion within me; to help influence young women to stand in their individuality, to stand in their strength. So often we see women degraded in a number of situations. Whether it be the big picture of fighting for basic human rights, being sexually harassed and assaulted, to being told you can’t be apart of something based on the gender restraints and even to the clothes we wear.

In a world full of what seems like endless masculine anarchy we can learn to intertwine our feminine nature in the seams of separation, instilling a sense of wholeness. When we learn to balance masculine and feminine nature we learn to balance the warrior with the wise.

There is no separation between the two labels, the only separation comes from our views of the other sex. Well how can we understand our views a little better? By asking yourself questions…

What positive forms of masculine power do you see within man? What positive forms of feminine power do you see within woman?

How do we visualize the collective energy of the masculine? Feminine? If it’s negative, how can we turn that into something positive?

How much do we trust the masculine to take care of the feminine? Vice versa?

When we learn to understand our views on certain positions we are able to identify the root of our frustrations or in other words separations. When we come to the cause of the problem we allow healing of a trauma or past event to pursuit. When we heal this part of ourselves or preconceived notions of a situation the illusion of seperation begins to dissolve, since we were able to remove our negative perceptions.

I think it is truly important to come to terms with the feminine and masculine within each of us. Our raw power as humans lies in recognizing our strengths and our room to grow. The strength lays in connection to the self with balance and care. Removing personal pain from any situation and channel healing through sacred wisdom.

How can we improve the warrior potential of the masculine side while enhancing the compassionate wisdom of the feminine?

Define Yourself

This soul you have, she is fierce. She lives to tell stories, to heal, to teach others. Through each moment we must remind ourselves to embrace our true calling, no matter what the start of the path looks like. Through sacrifice we challenge ourselves, through the removal of fear we will set out on the journey of a lifetime. The journey that brings our memories back of the beautiful places, people, art, ideas, methods, anything. The memories that bring peace to this planet.

I allow myself to flow with creativity. To flow with no judgment of myself or others. For each day is a new day to feel alive, to challenge the self, to breathe. A new day to BE. When I open my BEing to these spaces I allow my wings to catch drift in the winds of creation. Soaring me to new heights of awareness.

As this journey commences I remind myself of our collective power, infinite love and knowledge. For this life is what we make it.

Tessellate

Definition:

  1. To form into a mosaic pattern
  2. To fit together exactly

 

If we use the concept of tessellation within humankind we can start to look at ourselves as building blocks to one mass mosaic. Our goal to work unanimously in creating a peaceful world. If we focus on shaping ourselves (self development) we are able to create a pattern, altering the crystalline structures around us causing a chain reaction of high vibration. This high vibration allows our structures to tessellate and live on the planet in peace. With this in mind, the unconditional love we send out in return helps to raise lower vibrations so we may all feel the meaning of We Are One.

Nature can show us that when working together our product will be of greater strength. The bees are a reminder of our ability to tessellate. The structure of the hive show a repeated pattern that influences the sturdiness of the hive. The bees work together to build this structure following a genetic code. If the humans are a reflection of each other then humans are a reflection of nature, and in a sense nature reflects all that we impose on ourselves.

We can use the idea of the butterfly effect and tessellation with a positive advantage. Our ability to assist in the rise of Earths frequency is greater than any science book will ever tell us. As the awareness and ability to see our infinite power of creation rises, the tug of war between growth and destruction will be healthily balanced.

Where Would You Start?

There’s this chill I get when conversations about awareness rise up from the depths. It’s as though the flow of love stimulates the nerves within my delicate figure, opening each valve, ventricle, and artery to the warmth of purely unconditional love.

In this feeling there is connection to hope, to guidance, to knowledge of the infinite love. Love is quite endless in its pursuits, constantly floating through space and earthly matter, craving to be felt. Grasping each creature in warm breezes of nurturing touch, without having to take a physical form.

There is no pressure or limitation within love. In this we find what unconditional love means to our own degree of perception. Shall we open our minds to unlearning the conditioning and limitations we have imposed on our own self through misconception and trauma.

When we open our hearts to love we allow regeneration and growth to excel within the self and our personal surroundings. Our great Mother Earth asks us to open our hearts to love NOW.

When we come from a space of love we come from a space of understanding. A space of connection. A space of empathy. The solution to problems or disputes in the world right now lay in unconditional love at the deepest level we can interpret. Our solution lays in the mud of stillness, self development in order to take action in an effective way. Time we make a change and be the difference. Just as the lotus grows in the muddy water, there is growth in this stage of our humanity.

Are we going to let fear and limitation over rule us? Are we going to succumb to the numb feeling of escapism? If you are please, do us a favor and at least step out of the way. The light workers are here. The voices will be heard. Change will be embraced.

“Give, always give what you can
Even if your allies draw lines in the sand
And dig, always dig a little deeper
Sometimes it’s hard to be my brother’s keeper
Love, so you let love in
Baby I am home in the wake of your skin, and it’s crazy
How we wear our ceremony
Always be open to your path and your journey
Yes, she cradles my loneliness
A home in a forest nest
Universal test, feel the weight of my love
Put your hand on my chest
And rest, in the cradle of my arms
The battle that we face is a place where our scars come from
And to pick up the gun
My love we are destined to teach these ones to be brave
And never run away
Courage is birthed from the womb on the first light of day
Yeah, the day you were born, you came out perfect
Never meant to be torn
In silence, never been so loud in the violence
Never been so proud of a people
When we’re fighting for a change, not afraid to lose it all despite all the rage
We are animals
And we cannot be caged
Provoke us to fight
So we burn a little sage and write poetry
Wiser than the enemy will ever be
The minority
And authority
Are you here to protect or arrest me?
I can’t tolerate the hate, and I’m losing sleep
Can’t breathe, cause they’re choking out a war in me
Immorality

Love letters to God
Wonder if she reads them or if they get lost
In the stars, the stars, in the stars
So many parts to a heavy heart
If there’s no beginning, then where would you start?
Start, start, where would you start?

Human souls, so we carve ’em to a story Totem poles
Because we’re always searching for a certain goal
A pattern of physics, a role
Don’t believe all you’re told
And open
Open up your fist
A misconception, you can fight like this
In praise, with the power of prayer
If God’s on our side, we can take the stairs
To the heavens
Flipping through my chapter seven
I live with the snakes in the great deception
No court, in this country for men
Who steal from their mother on paper with pen
And we’re tripping
Down a red dirt road
And we’re asking
Is this the way we should go?
Kissing, soft top feet of my goddess
We walk the earth, baby, yeah we got this
Focus, and it’s redirected
Grateful, and I’m resurrected
Stubborn, but I know the way
You’re the skin of my drum
To your rhythm I will sway
Take my hand
I won’t lead you astray
We will not go gently into the darkest of days
Grandma’s here, and she says persevere
Take a walk in her mocks, sees a trail of tears
And our fears, are the same as they ever were
Beers, numb the pain of a holocaust
Gears, always mobbing in motion
Maybe, baby, be an island or an ocean
Your arches, how they bend and contract on my conscience
Never slipped through the grip of my thesis
And my theory is I shine in your presence
A deliverance

Love letters to God
Wonder if she reads them or if they get lost
In the stars, the stars, in the stars
So many parts to a heavy heart
If there’s no beginning, then where would you start?
Start, start, where would you start?
