SURFING THE MOTHER'S WAVES
The power of Mother Earth was felt far and wide during the month of September, particularly during the time of the Equinox. In America the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina was a massive wake-up call on all levels. The images of mammoth destruction were flashed all over the world, and a unity was felt as help and support was offered from even the smallest, poorest countries.
Three weeks after Katrina Hurricane Rita arrived. She made her presence known early and with ferocious intensity. Once again the world watched as she gained momentum and headed for land. The potential for catastrophic damage was imminent, and many evacuated their homes and cities for safety.
Just before she was due to make landfall, the intensity of her power began to soften and her course slightly alter. There was a call put forth and millions answered with unified intent and prayer. An intervention occurred that still allowed the completion of the event as necessary but with much less damage and loss than originally planned.
There are many layers and levels of lesson that are being gained from these events, but all of us must take note at the power and quick result from our unified collective intent. We are so much more powerful than we realize and when joined together for the highest good of all – magic occurs. We will have much more opportunity to work with this during the month of October and the months following.
At this time the Earth is reclaiming and releasing the parts of her that are keeping her from moving forward. In California there are raging wild fires claiming hundreds of acres. Texas and Louisiana are still experiencing the effects of floods. Vietnam is reeling from the power of Typhoon Damrey. New Guinea has had two powerful earthquakes in the past three weeks as well as Peru. Various volcanoes around the planet are releasing steam & ash. The mother is our mirror and we are making change in a powerful way.
The storms of change from the Mother are the same for us. What “inner storms” are you aware of inside? What energy are you transforming or transmuting? Every storm shifts the energy of the planet, opens dormant energy that is now ready for activation that allows us to connect with specific frequencies and vibrations that are needed for our body and our growth. As we refine our frequency the crystalline and magnetic grids are also re-tuned – allowing for even more balance and harmony within the hearts of all.
During the month of October we will continue to take giant steps in defining who we truly are, not just in the periphery of our 3D lives, but at the very core of what we know is necessary for our continued growth and expansion. Often the “knowing” of our true selves, comes from the love and connection we have with another this in itself seems like a paradox. In truth it is through “relationship” (the magic word that is paramount for this year) that we gain the wisdom of understanding our deepest knowing and truth.
Is there a relationship in your life that has shown parts of yourself still in fear? Is your body enduring a storm at the moment that you are hiding or ignoring? is there a relationship that you are trying to magnatize to you that is struck?
October’s energy will continue to “reveal” the hidden. Nothing can remain tucked away from the dynamic waves of change that we are surfing now. It will be asking the divine Feminine and Masculine of the individual and the collective to continue the integration around relationships once again, no matter what form they take in our life. We will be undertaking “change” and at the same time staying “still” as we recalibrate the energies that have been flooding us these past weeks. This again sounds like a paradox and it is. From our most quiet centre comes the knowing for the greatest movement or applied action. The balanced feminine instills the thought; the balanced masculine takes the action to bring the thought into form.
We will continue letting go of the “old” ways of being, in all ways. This of course speaks directly to relations and relationships in all forms. So many of us have undergone changes in our intimate and personal relationships over the past years. Fear and loss are often felt as hearts move through these alterations. The energy of fear and victim are insidious and keep us from stepping forward, often we can’t see it – we only feel it and the cloud of confusion it can bring.
The emotion of love for another can often become clouded by other feelings of guilt, obligation, responsibility, and loyalty. What we say we are doing when acting out of love sometimes turns into a continuation of a less than excellent exchange of energies. This effectively roots us in lower relationships, where expectations are not met, and drama is assured by its own unhealthy nature.
It takes courage to love ourselves enough to command the blessings that are our due. Sometimes, the most loving word that you can say to another is "no." For in stating what is and is not allowable for us sets the conditions for this most benevolent universe to honour our desires. It is not the same as living life with blinders one, negating reality, or hiding from the obvious. Instead, it is separating Love from guilt and fear, and treating each in their own due regard.
We so often use the words “Unconditional Love” when trying to explain our position in relation to another. Many feel that being loved ‘unconditionally” means that no matter what energy or position is projected, it will be accepted and accommodated out of love – even if it is something we can’t support. This is a skewed meaning.
Unconditional Love in the truest sense says “I see where you are, I see who you are being, I love you for who you are – however I choose not be part of this particular energy role until you decide what to do about it. If you can look at it as loving that other person in the highest possible way, you are actually helping them more by setting them free from specific interactions with you. Interactions in life do not change unless we change them.
We learn through our experiences. In relationships, we engage in an exchange of emotions, feelings, and actions that pass through the nexus of our evolution's moment in time. We learn as we go, and aspire naturally towards our soul’s perfection, made the more holy by a spiritual commitment to perceive the highest truths of our existence.
October will challenge and support our continued path and growth in relationship. There is tremendous energetic support astrologically this month that completely supports the recalibration of ourselves, and our relationships.
Carolina Eastwood-Parkyn shares so beautifully the coming astrological influences at Planet Lightworker this month. For the complete article see
www.planetlightworker.com/articles/carolinaeastwood/article60.php October begins with two important planetary events. First, the planet of action, Mars, turns retrograde (apparent backwards motion) in Taurus on October 1. While Mars is retrograde from October 1 until December 9, we review our values associated with work, and focus on improving our ethics in business. Retrograde Mars will compel us to complete existing projects before creating new ones.
Solar Eclipse in Libra brings changes in relationships
On the new moon of October 3 we have an almost total solar eclipse in Libra, signaling dynamic changes in our most important relationships. Specifically, this eclipse addresses past beliefs about love and patterns of relating that no longer serve us, or our partners. The planet of higher spiritual realities, Neptune, forms a favorable triangle to the solar eclipse, promising that, as we become more universally attuned, we awaken to the reality that we are all One, and this knowledge changes the character of our relationships. We no longer separate “strangers” from friends, and a deep love for all humanity dawns in our hearts. Contrary to popular fears, this awareness makes our most intimate relationships more precious as we let go of possessiveness and begin to love with a totality and clarity previously unavailable to us.
Full moon eclipse brings changes in the form of our expressions
On October 17, as the full moon of Aries opposes the sun in Libra, we have a lunar eclipse, which brings a change in the nature, or the form, of our expression. Illuminating several planetary aspects that culminated around October 14, the full moon reveals part of our human nature that tends to be unreliable in relationships and seeks to control our experience. The planet of “karma”, or life’s lessons, Saturn, helps us to stabilize our more primal motivations, and rise to a higher expression by urging us to speak our truth and trust in the natural flow of life. The great teacher Jupiter assists, as the sun in Libra joins it to receive inspiration and deep understanding of universal laws and principles.
The Sun and Jupiter enter transformative Scorpio
During the sun’s transit of Libra this year, we are given the opportunity to clarify our values, let go of old, less rewarding ways of relating, and step into a higher frequency of love. The sun completes its journey through Libra, entering the sign of transformation, Scorpio, on October 23. Jupiter follows, after having spent a year in Libra, and begins its 13-month stay in Scorpio on October 25. Accentuated in the last week of October by Jupiter’s presence, the sun in Scorpio takes us into the depths of our subconscious drives, illuminating parts of our nature that are ready for healing or transformation. Also revealing parts of our nature that have transcended the ego and stand united in Spirit, ready to be of service.http://www.planetlightworker.com/articles/carolinaeastwood/article60.php
We have much opportunity to create wonderful new ways of feeling and understanding ourselves this month. The earth is also taking the same opportunity and change will be evident as we reap the seeds we have sown. It is vital that each of us connect consciously and lovingly with our beloved Mother, offering our energy in service to her transition – thereby collectively coming together to create magical effects upon her.
Our body is also requiring great attention and support. Many are struggling just now with cold like symptoms, fatigue, congestion and significant body pain, headaches etc. Continue to support your body by moving towards a more alkaline terrain. As the earth continues to shift and move, our body can often hold that energy in our spine, joints & muscles. Moving the body gently is very helpful to allow those congested energies to flow. You may find that exercise that is constrictive won’t feel as good just now (weight lifting for example) where as more stretching and gentle manipulation (Yoga or Pilate’s) will feel more supportive.
The key this month is to listen quietly from your still point, discern what is appropriate and then take the action that is necessary to facilitate change. To surf we need to be strong, in good form and focused only on the moment – at the same time we need to flexible and able to take action in a split second when necessary.
Enjoy surfing the waves that are upon us and coming in these next weeks, if you fall and get wet throw your head back in gales of laughter and get right back up on your board of life.
Love and Deep Blessings,
Shala

Shala was born and raised on Vancouver Island, in Western Canada and continues to make her home on this magical island. The death of her father in 1975 was the catalyst for what has now become a 30-year study of Spirituality, Energy, Frequency, Vibration & Healing.
This study has made for an interesting path of self -discovery with the understanding that our "fears" can be released, and that we create our reality every moment of the day. Shala has always been fascinated with the body and its ability to hold energy. During the past year and a half she has been living a vegan lifefood lifestyle. During this time she has healed herself of a serious illness and from that gained a profound understanding of the intimate functions of the cells, lifeforce in foods, detoxification, youthing, increased vitality, energy and intuitive ability.
Shala is currently studying the subject of colloidal biology and the bridge between the physical and energy construct of the body. She continues to operate an energy healing practice and to create safe sacred space for clients to move into their power and experience the profound energy of their guidance. She continues to weave the many modalities she has studied into personal and transforamtion sessions of channelled information and healing.
Having overcome a lifetime fear of water, Shala has re-membered her passion and connection to the whales and dolphins of our planet. She has and continues to swim with these loving teachers, who are helping all to remember how to communicate beyond our familiar senses.
