A Spiritual Rebirth

6/12/11

Been awhile since I blogged on my journal site but wanted to write about our amazing experience yesterday. We went to

Wild Winds Buffalo Preserve for their annual Spring Rendezvous. We didn't have the money to stay this time but went in as “flatlanders” to visit our spiritual family there. I've spoken about this place before many times. We considered it our second home for many years. Then chaotic energy formed there and it wasn't so peaceful anymore. Now that we have went back, the energy has been restored and I now call it home again. I have been dealing with a lot of inner turmoil lately with my oldest child and my energy has not been very positive, the minute I set foot on the preserve peace returned and I was able to think without pain and hurt and everything was as it should be. Our family camps there every year and you could feel the immense love everyone shared for one another. Yesterday, we seen kids playing outside, running and laughing and you never realize how much of the modern world and conveniences overrun your life until you see simplicity like that. Eases my heart and soul to see that and gives me hope for the future. There was a memorial ceremony for one of our dear family that has passed away and native drummers sent his soul to the creator. It was very peaceful listening to the mother drum. She stirs my soul like nothing ever really has. Later in the evening, we had council fire. This was my first one and a very spiritual one for me. I spoke my heart as Grandfather walked the circle and then he gave me my spiritual name. The energy was awesome and I walked away from the circle fire as a renewed spirit. My soul at balance once again. And the one thing that stays with me is the whisper of the wind that said “it will be alright”. The tears flowed cleansing me of the pain and hurt that I've been going through the last month. I touched the moon and stars and came back as a new person.

As always,

Heather (Earthwindwalker) Powers

My Life 2011

5/10/11

In celebration of my impending birthday, I'm writing a blog about what I'm working on this year.

37 years on this earth and man has it been a ride. 3 marriages, 3 kids, 3 fur-kids. I'm a graduate in the school of hard knocks and getting my masters in life right now.

I've always been a writer since I was about 14 years old. The pen and paper were my lifelines. My badge of courage through my turbulent teens. I was a boring kid with a boring life so I chose to create worlds that weren't so boring. I started writing essays in school and the teachers always told me you should be a writer. You have the talent. I am my own worst critic everything I write of course is shit but that is just my negative nelly talking.

I then worked my way to poetry which was an easier medium for me. The words just flowed.

I didn't start my first novel until I ran into an idea a few years ago. I had a premise to a story. It never went further than 2 paragraphs but then in a moment of epiphany, I dusted off my folder with my work in it and just started writing. I'm still working on it and it's a slow process. I only have 6 chapters so far but my characters are still in my head demanding to have their say about things. They won't let me rest. I could be at work and a line will pop up and it will sit there and bug me until I unload it. They talk in your head. It's my opinion writers are all schizophrenics :) LOL How else can you explain voice in your head? LOL

OH that's right, I'm a writer. That's what we do.

I also decided I was going to write as an indie/self published author. There is a lot of information out there for indies and SP authors. I've been blessed to meet some exceptional authors who take the time to talk shop to me. It's all about networking. I can't stress that enough.

So following in the footsteps of my writing, book reviewing fell into my lap. Why not do something I love and comment on it to help other authors like me? So needless to say it's been a whirlwind the last few months. The enormous amount of info about book reviewers is a bit overwhelming when it's right in front of you but I love a challenge.

So with the patience of some other really good book reviewers and authors I'm reviewing, I'm slowly learning the blog biz:) Thanks to all those who have helped me and continue to help me as I make this journey to my dream.

Now it's your turn, tell me what your dream is and how are you working to attain it.

As always,

Heather Powers

Either way, my personal energy was astounding J I came in and acknowledged my cats and got my cleansing from them. Now I’m super pumped about the energy I felt this time around.

Hopefully result will happen this timeJ

Introspection and Spirituality
Today was a wonderful day. We went to Wild Winds Buffalo Preserve and hung out with our voo friends. This helped inspire me to write this piece tonight.
I’m doing my card pull this evening using my new tarot deck.
1st card
Major arcane
Disruption
2nd card
Green 2
Spiritual Union
3rd card
Green 1
Love Begins
4th card
Chakra 4
Heart Chakra
5th card
Chakra 5
Throat Chakra
6Th card
Green 7
Choose wisely

My interpretation of these cards after my inner musings and book words allow me to come to the following interpretation of my message.




Disruption is caused by scattered energies. Something is causing me to stagnate. This is not all bad news as there are kindred souls in my life who will help me achieve spiritual union and balance and allow me to grow with love and understanding. My heart and throat chakras are in cooperation allowing me to achieve this result. My creative energies encourage my healing and help me become aware of my inner hearing. This all works in unity to achieve my ultimate wish for spiritual balance.
This all follows how my life is going at the moment. My kindred souls are all around me when I get together with them in Indiana. I feel my energy grow and encompass everyone and this helps me gain the balance I need. I help myself as well as others. I want to ask everyone what happens when I’m around them. What energy signatures and things do that feel when I leave myself open. I come to realize this after I left the preserve today. Spending time with my earth companions. Every minute I spend with them I feel myself getting closer to balance. It’s in my grasp just need to open myself to the opportunities made available to me. Doorways opened that I thought were once shut. I feel at peace once more in my chaotic life. After I meet with them, my creative energies flow and allow me the spiritual growth necessary to heal others. I am the teacher as well as the student.
Inner peace is so precious to me. Solitude becomes companionship.
Any thoughts or ideas to share feel free. I’m interested in seeing what all my friends feel about the energies around once we get together. Feel free to share.
Until next time, as always Earthwindwalker

2/6/11 Patience and Playfulness

2/6/11
My card pull today was The Green Woman. Imagine that. The one card that I feel is the inner me. She speaks to us of enhancing our innate talents . Boldness and perseverance is needed to face an adversary. But she also reminds us to exercise patience and keep growing.
I find this very prevalent in my life right now. I feel my fruits growing and I by nature am not a patient person. I am a doer not a waiter. I need to keep myself grounded and realize that it will all come. Not much more different than the aftermath of the animal spirit guide calling. In my vision, I was told that things were moving along and I was on the right path. Some days, I feel so stagnant and wonder if I’m going the right way. Now I know I am.
We are over at our friends house in Indiana. Our beautiful friends here are earthy and gifted as well and we got into a nice spiritual discussion after doing reading for one another. I felt we were meant to have these discussions and we each became the teacher for a moment. I find these touches into my spiritual side very rewarding and satisfying and trust that we were meant to be here in this time and place for this purpose to teach and learn. Each of us is a student in some way as well as a teacher. We sometimes are not aware of the teacher moments but they are there. Age makes no difference. Older or younger there are lessons to be learned and taught.
My card pull today makes me laugh because Green Woman is sticking her tongue out and just looks like she is having fun. I need to continue to let my fun and ornery side come out more. This is a good message. It makes you feel so much better and makes the people around you feel the playful energy. She reminds me of the fae that I feel around me when I’m touching my inner child.
Outside it’s snowing. It’s so beautiful to look at and reminds me that all seasons must happen in the circle of life. Time moves too quickly sometimes and we fail to ease back and relax and take it slowly. The way time moves is strictly in your perception of it. That is the true secret of immortality. Your soul and heart lives on and you are always here in one life or another. There is a rare few who see this and grasp it.
My favorite time of the year is spring where everything grows again. It reminds me that I’m always growing.
The epiphanies that come to you at the most strangest of times always astounds me. That is why I’m a writer I think, so I can touch my muse and let my words flow free. This is my freedom, my soul healing. Sometimes my words are beautiful, sometimes bittersweet, sometimes angry, sometimes spiritual. It’s all the way I connect with my muse.
I’m sitting here alone with my thoughts and my muse today which is beautiful Green Woman. Every one else is sleeping and quiet as it should be for this moment of clarity.

As always and until next time,
Earth

1/18/11 Animal Manifestation Visitation Spell Aftermath

1/18/11

After tonight’s Animal Spirit Manifestation spell, I’m tapped out energy wise. It was a very powerful spell.
I asked for my animal spirit totems to join me in my circle to share their knowledge with me. At first, I couldn’t get the right mood set. Candle work wasn’t necessary with this invitation. All I needed was my dragon blood incense and shaman stick. I finally came upon my music destiny for this particular meeting. It was Primeaux and Mike. Let me tell you, wolf came immediately. I wasn’t surprised by this as wolf has always been my within. I also asked panther to come and she was much more squirrelly. It wasn’t until after I played the music that she came. The main purpose of this invitation was to recharge and power my shaman stick and be known to my spirit totems. As I sat there and listened to the music playing, I started swaying involuntarily and my 3rd eye chakra tingled and then immediate head pain started…not in a bad way. It was more an outpouring of power into my stick. It was like I was conduit. As the power passed from me, flashes of my totem faces appeared behind my closed eyes. And then melding of sorts with my own inner spirit or soul. A connection of sorts. Messages were relayed to me in my head. Fragments of information. I felt like a doorway was being opened for me by my totems. I have no idea the course of this road but I’m in it for the ride.
‘patience”
“Your learning is not done”
“be at peace you are going where you are meant to go”
Came into my head.
Images of snow covered fields appeared and felt like I was running toward the unknown. Pictures cascaded thru my head very quickly. The words spoken to me were more like feelings.
I got up and down many times. In one instance I was on all fours. A lot of involuntary swaying. Stick thumping on the floor. I was on a runaway train and had to let it finish.


I started around 10:30 and didn’t get done till 11:45. It was like minutes passed not a whole hour.
Very surreal.
I’ve been having a lot of dreams lately. This morning I had a bad dream of sorts. It was like I was in the dream but I was looking through another’s eyes. The other day, fragments just appeared in my dreams. Pieces of a puzzle.



Any thoughts or comments,
Please share,

Until next time,
Earth
