Boo Who?

Well it’s fabulous October, which ritualizes my favorite holiday- Halloween. This Soul fest originated under the name Samhain as a Pagan festival among the Celts. All-hallow-even, is the evening before "All Hallows” or "All Saints' Day," a celebrated feast to honour of all the Saints, known and unknown. Yes, this means you too!
We pay tribute to the parts of ourselves that are fun, scary, laughable and ghoulish as well as honoring the gifts of Wisdom that have been bestowed upon us. All humans are part of us or played by us as we prance around in our costumes of the day. We are all pure Spirit trying to find our way back to ourselves. Life is a pageant.
I feel separate, scared and affronted by another whenever I forget that all of you out there are me. When that happens, and it does, I meet up with cranky, short tempered, angry people. So once again I have to check my attitude, pull back, change my attitude and move on. In other words isn’t it interesting that when you’re having a wonderful happy day, people around you tend to smile and have a happy day too? One good way to always know how you are doing inside is to look at how others are responding to you outside. It’s a direct reflection.
One of those days, when I had turned into an ogre, I called Audrey, my best friend of 30+ years, Soul Sister, coach, raised in the Jewish faith, and Goddess of Means. She shared profound and enLightening words as I was speaking ill, yet again, of my ex-husband. She said, “Shaun remember what Jesus said? ‘Forgive them Father for they know not what they do.’ Do you really think anyone in their right mind would set out to have an entire life of wreckage?” Well that was the gist and the jest of it all. Not to pontificate but I believe that the devil IS in the details when it comes to religion. Her simple words of advice, regardless of the original author, entered my consciousness like a soft feather floating through a brick wall. Wisdom is Universal Truth.
I acknowledged, in that moment the concept that we as a species, are evolving for the better. We have reached a time where we are becoming cross-pollinated! We understand that wisdom comes in all forms, from all directions and it is a gift and birth right to know the Truth. “And the Truth will set you free!” We also invite The Buddha~ (which means: EnLIGHTenment- Dictionary.com) to our prayer station as we are mindful in our morning prayers as well.
Light is Light and regardless of which path you walk to get there it matters not. We have arrived at the beginning of awareness and acceptance that all the Saints and Sages of all faiths and paths intersect our being to raise us up and keep us moving toward The Light. Human beings are the cross between Earth~the third dimension and Heaven~the fourth dimension. Our feet are on the ground and our head is in the stars. Those two intersections cross at our heart chakra. The heart is the point where The Light radiates from us.
As we become Spiritual Adults we begin to understand the concept of being wealthy AND wise. It is not about money, that’s a good thing to have, but money is not the only thing that we must acquire to be whole. We must be wealthy. Wealth: an abundance or profusion of anything; plentiful amount. Dictionary.com. This would be the Wisdom part. The part where we Know that we must exercise inclusion, meaning we embrace the good and the ghoulish parts of Ourself and become Whole.
Getting back to my wise woman, Audrey, I feel that she has been part of my life not only as a coach and sister but she has been my Truth. There have been so many times when I couldn’t see because my eyes and ears were glued shut and my heart chakra was covered with many veils. She has helped me know my true nature, which is Love. If in this lifetime you are blessed to have cultivated just one person that is your Audrey, you are a wealthy person.
I give infinite praise to all of those Angels that give us shelter from a self imposed storm; to laugh with us, as well, when we decide to step into the sunLight; to have God’s ear when, in those blind spots, we are wondering if there is a God. Praise to all of the Renaissance people that go beyond the boundaries and limits of meager belief systems that keep us separate. They accept us for all of the obsolete costumes worn and characters we have languished in our pursuit to become One.
We are at the age of taping into the **Neosphere~the plane of existence that Carl Jung, PHD (1875-1961) spoke of many years ago. Just like the Earth has a living Biosphere it also has a Neosphere~ an energy field that surrounds the Earth and connects all of our thoughts and actions with all other humans. It is our Souls osmosis current. It flows to us, through us and returns back to Source. The Neosphere connects us as one Soul and we are a guest of Mother Earth. As we continue to make a conscious effort to send positive healing thoughts back into the Neosphere, we are healing the belief of separation from Ourself. We are the newest human model -homo altus- The Cosmic Person.
As we set an intention daily to connect with Spirit, our thoughts reside in the Neosphere. Our powerful thoughts heal the parts that are in pain, or lost, or feel separate. The ones that strike out like a sick animal are the fearful parts of Ourself that WE can nurture and send Light to. Even though it is EGO’s nature to stay separate, we can bring that part to wholeness, it’s hard at first to want to~ but necessary.
So getting back to the gentle reminder that my dear, sweet sister shared with me, I have made a conscious effort to send that person, no matter how much wreckage and torment caused, the thought of, “Forgive him Father/Mother for he knows not what he does.” If he were in his right mind he would not have chosen what has occurred. I also learned from AA that no one wakes up in the morning and says, “I think I’ll have a shitty day.” This does not excuse the cruel unmentionable acts of others. We must try to send the Light to darkness because it sets us free. We are perfect in our flaws, all is well, and we can then move forward.
Taping into the Neosphere, the One Mind, is a continuous shedding of old beliefs that no longer serve us. Everything not needed will fall away as we are reminded daily of our True being. Sending Light and forgiveness to another will reflect back into your life, some say ten fold. We also learn responsibility for choices made and make healthier ones in the future.
When you tap into the Neosphere, Wisdom and Guidance will come without torment in order to glean the pearls of wisdom. The more I become willing to ask for Guidance and ask for smart, likeminded, loyal people in my life, the more like attracts like. Critical mass, as it were.
So this is a reminder to meditate daily, bless yourself, bless others and when you forget what the point is, run it by a trusted Angel that will remind you again. We are never alone and are always supported by the Universe. Good friends are God’s third dimensional reassurance of the infinite presence of Light in times when we have become separate from ourselves.
Happy Halloween- a showcase of the million expressions of you. The bumps, warts, feathers, glitter and All!
Until next time,
Bewell, shaun

**Von Franz, Marie-Louise. Archetypal Dimensions of the Psyche. Boston: Shambhala, 1997. An esteemed protégé of Carl Jung envisions an historic manifestation of the Cosmic Person.
“But whether today, now that we are at the end of at least five thousand years of the development of consciousness, we must take a step backward into a primal barbaric state, or whether the Self of humanity will evolve further in the consciousness of the individual, I do not know. The only thing that seems sure is that today this archetype is trying to manifest in many individuals, and that now everything depends on how many of them will be able to understand this occurrence consciously and will undertake efforts for their own individuation, that is for the liberation of the homo altus, the greater inner person.”
