Feb. 3, 2011 - Transformation is Springing Forth

I love today's message since I can feel the energy of Spring just around the corner! The message today involves the energy of the goddesses Aphrodite and Butterfly Maiden as well as the energies of the Owl and Hawk. Aphrodite is the Greek goddess of passion and love, who's associated with the planet Venus. Butterfly Maiden is a Hopi Native American kachina (spirit) who ensures that crops yield healthy and bountiful harvests. She's a springtime goddess who helps us escape from any cocoon situation that's trapping us or impeding our growth or joy.

"There is much change springing forth and at this time it is important to keep our male and female energies balanced. Whether you are a male or female, you possess both types of energy. Notice if your female energy has been put aside. Where is your softer side? How are you dressing? May we suggest wearing something that makes you feel beautiful. Yes even men can feel this inner beauty. Finding ways to connect with the female energy at this point will not only balance you, but also unleash a creative aspect in you that will guide you through the transformation that is in front of you.

On this day, Owl and Hawk energy is very strong. The owl energy provides you the ability to see in the dark and see those things that may not be obvious to you. Stop and look for ways where you or someone else may not be completely honest. The owl assists us in finding truth in the darkest places of ourselves. Allow yourself to see it and go after it with the assistance of the hawk energy. The hawk is not only very good at spotting but also can be laser focused in what it is hunting. Be open to signs from nature, from conversations, even literal writings "on the wall" that may give you the answer(s) that you have been searching for.

Things will start to make more sense as you keep yourself opened and proceed forward -- remember asking for assistance is never out of the question and makes your path much more smoother!

Finally, as you are moving into this transformation, allow yourself to be the novice. You don't have to know EVERYTHING. Remember the owl is there to keep you honest with yourself and others. Be truthful if you do not understand and need assistance from others. It is ok to be child-like (as opposed to child-ish) and experience the newness of a new opportunity. Remember when you were a child and you saw the magic in all things? Keep seeing the magic, because it is indeed all around you!

Take this day to write your deepest wishes and allow Divine assistance make it so."
