Guided Meditation: Bringing Peace and Balance to Earth
MEDITATION from the InnerSelf.com article entitled:
You Are a Superhero: Help Reinstate Peace and Balance
which was excerpted with permission from the book:
Angel Abundance: Revelations on True Wealth from the 12 Archangels by Belinda J. Womack.
Test of Guided Meditation: Bringing Peace and Balance to Earth
Close your eyes and breathe slowly until you feel centered and secure. Step through the purple door into a coral landscape. Once you enter the coral world, say, “I invite my being to be rebalanced by my Soul.”
Just ahead of you are two huge piles of black sand. The pile on the right is bigger than the pile on the left. When you look around, you notice that there are six palm trees growing in the coral landscape and all of them are on the left. There seems to be nothing growing on the right. The rest of the landscape is barren, like dried-out, red-orange mud.
Place your hands on your abdomen and say, “Fear out, love in.” See your divine inner child, divine feminine, and divine masculine pouring violet-fire water on the black sand pile. They are pouring the energy on the line that has been drawn in the middle of the sand. Keep repeating, “Fear out, love in.”
Soon you will feel and see that the sand is disappearing. Say, “Peace in, conflict out.” Keep your hands relaxed on your abdomen and take deep breaths, pushing your belly into your hands when you inhale. The black sand completely disappears. Watch as the palm trees spread over the coral landscape and now grow on the right side as well as the left.
Say, “Thank you, Creator, for filling my humanity with peace and balance for the greatest good and the highest joy of all!”
The coral landscape is being filled with vegetation and flowers of many colors. A beautiful Angel appears. Say, “Thank you, Archangel Gaia, for rebalancing your planet. Thank you for helping me to rebalance my body and my life. Thank you for transforming the self-hatred of your children into love and respect for one another. I Am so grateful.”
Stand under a violet-fire waterfall and release any selves from your past that still feel conflicted or bitter. Say, “I forgive it all, even if I don’t want to forgive it. I invite peace and balance to fill my being and the One Human Body that I live within.”
Invite the violet-fire waterfall to transform into a rainbow vortex of undiluted love. Stand in the vortex and become the vortex of love. Grow until you are vast. Feel our energy merge with you. From this place of unity and Divine Oneness, we send peace, balance, and respect into the atoms of every particle of Creator’s energy on Earth. As above, so below and as within, so without, obeying the Law of One and the Law of Energy.

JUPITER & PLUTO: Jupiter entered the airy, mental sign of Gemini on May 25. Over the next 12 months, the Great Planet will be magnifying our awareness of those areas of life that fall under the jurisdiction of The Twins. These areas include communications and the news, facts and fictions, travel and transport, trade and treaties, schools and learning, the nervous system and memory, and events that occur in our local environs and neighborhoods.

SOLAR MAXIMUM? Even if you don't monitor solar flare activity, you may be familiar with the term "Solar Maximum" or have read about it happening in 2024. To explain: the Sun has cycles of activity that last about 11 years, on average (the shortest on record lasted nine years, the longest more than 13 years). Each cycle begins at Solar Minimum, when there are relatively few sunspots and usually only minor solar flares. Activity then reaches a peak about five or six years later, when the sunspot number is high and solar flares increase in both quantity and intensity.

NEW MOON: The Sun and Moon align in peace-loving Taurus at 8:21 p.m. PDT on May 7, marking the beginning of a new lunar cycle. Although we usually think of The Bull as being somewhat slower moving and resistant to change, this New Moon could manifest in major changes due to its proximity to Uranus and to Jupiter. And, while Taurus usually prefers comfort and simplicity, it is best not to expect life to feel familiar or to be uncomplicated now.

STATIONARY PLUTO: Passionate Pluto is at peak energy now, being virtually at a standstill as it prepares to go retrograde in Aquarius this Thursday, May 2. Though small in physical terms, the dwarf planet can wield a mighty sword at times, cutting through old paradigms and initiating a process of cleansing and transformation.

Deal with Your Shadow and Other Negative Forces
One of the most powerful things you can do is a personal clearing of your own energy field. The following is an energetic clearing that Robin Duda, the soul alchemist I've been working with from Santa Fe, New Mexico, has supplied.
This invocation uses words, voice, and movement to help clear and energize body, soul and personal will, uniting them. In this process you will be calling on your Multidimensional Self to more firmly embody on Earth and more deeply connect with love as your Source, thus supporting freedom and personal intentions.

Is The Universe Friendly? Having the Eyes to See
After returning from Africa in the early '80s, I was hired as a consultant by the Swiss Foreign Office to undertake a fascinating study of seven Western nations (Belgium, Holland, Canada, Great Britain, Norway, Sweden and Western Germany) during which I interviewed over two hundred people in more than 100 organizations to see how they were raising public awareness in their countries of the great challenge of international development.
I ended almost every interview with the question: "It's easy to see what's wrong with the world today - anyone can come up with a long list of problems. So, I'd like to ask you to mention what you see as the three positive trends in the world - in any field."

Exiting the See-Do Bypass: Get Ready, Get Set, Go!
The phrase “Get ready, get set, GO!” describes a formula for effective living. We screw things up when we leave out the middle step, by getting trapped on what I call the “see-do bypass.” We know we’re stuck on the see-do bypass when we skip the “get set” step to plunge immediately from awareness to action. Or, when we endure situations we don’t enjoy but feel powerless to change them. I’ve challenged my own habits of being impulsive or staying stuck by reversing another well-known phrase to read, “Don’t just do something, stand there!” Continue Reading Be sure to visit InnerSelf.com, where there are 20,000+ life-altering articles where we promote "New Attitudes and New Possibilities."

PINK FULL MOON: The current lunar cycle reaches its crescendo on Tuesday as the Moon shines its brightest in the night sky. Indigenous peoples in eastern North America called the Full Moon of April the "Pink Moon," due to it occurring when the herb Moss Pink (creeping phlox) was in full bloom.

TOTAL SOLAR ECLIPSE: The Total Solar Eclipse on April 8 is a powerful one, with potentially major effects on our individual lives and also on our collective evolution. Visually, eclipses such as this are always thrilling, since the Moon completely blocks the Sun's light from reaching the Earth, causing "day to turn to night."

A LAND BETWEEN: At the time of the Lunar Eclipse on March 25, we crossed the threshold into a world that is painted with different colors than we are normally used to. During the two-week period between eclipses, life can seem surreal, events move quickly, and situations may reach a crisis or turning point. We also experience emotions and physical issues more profoundly.

LUNAR ECLIPSE: At precisely 12 a.m. Pacific Daylight Time on March 25, the Full Moon perfects and a penumbral Lunar Eclipse is near its peak. Visually, this type of eclipse is somewhat anticlimactic; instead of the Moon turning reddish, as it does during a total Lunar Eclipse, the disk of the Moon will be only slightly darker than normal, for about four hours total. However, all eclipses are powerful, no matter their designation!

MARCH OVERVIEW: Four of the ten main planets are in Pisces as we begin the month of March, enhancing the creative imagination and intuition, increasing our capacity for compassion and understanding, and drawing our attention to the mystical or metaphysical aspects of this otherwise very "real" physical existence. These Piscean qualities are especially emphasized during the New Moon on March 10, at which time the Sun and Moon are within orb of transcendental Neptune.

THE PARADE CONTINUES: Following in Mercury's footsteps, Mars and Venus both enter Aquarius this week and immediately conjoin Pluto.

THE FEBRUARY PARADE: With Mercury entering Aquarius at 9:10 p.m. PST on February 5, we begin a parade of planets into Aquarius — first Mercury, then Mars (February 12), and then Venus (February 16). While this is not a terribly rare occurrence, since the three personal planets do sometimes travel closely together, it carries more significance now; as each planet enters the eleventh sign, it will immediately conjoin Pluto in Aquarius, for the first time in more than 200 years.

FEBRUARY OVERVIEW: A new calendar month begins this week, initiating a period in which we will see increasing evidence of the transformational and, at times, seemingly deconstructive effects of Pluto's transit of Aquarius. As a powerful catalyst for change, the mighty dwarf planet often takes on the role of The Psychotherapist, revealing the darker side of the human psyche so that it might be transmuted.

LEO FULL MOON: With the Aquarius Sun and mighty Pluto traveling side-by-side over the next few days, we expect this week's Full Moon to be especially impactful. The lunation perfects at 9:54 a.m. PST on Thursday, January 25. At that time, the Moon will be at 5°14´ Leo, opposite the Sun and Pluto, and also in tight square aspect to the giant planet Jupiter. This arrangement of the planets creates a configuration called a fixed T-square.

TRANSITION: We enter a powerful transitional phase this week, initiated by the Sun's alignment with Pluto in the final degree of Capricorn, and their side-by-side ingress into the next sign. Thus begins a four-week timeframe in which the remaining personal planets — first Mercury, then Mars, then Venus — all conjoin dynamic Pluto in the first degree of progressive Aquarius.
