In the northern hemisphere September 21st marked the vernal, or autumnal equinox; The beginning of fall and the autumn harvest. Have you ever heard ‘you reap what you sow’? Fall is a wonderful time to take a closer look at life’s harvest.

Did you plant any seeds in your garden of life in the beginning of the year that are ready for harvest? Is some of your crop still in a growth cycle and not quite ripe enough to pick? Are there bulbs you’d like to plant so they can flower in the future?

Harvest and planting is a perfect metaphor for life. It gets one to thinking about what it is that we are reaping NOW in our lives, what is still in process and what seeds we would like to plant for the future. If you are focused on things that happened in the past, worrying about the future or current problems, you are not planting seeds for the future. All creating happens in the present and your ‘vision’ is the seed to plant. If you don’t have a dream, you can’t plant the seed!

“My mind is a garden. My thoughts are the seeds. My harvest will be either flowers or weeds.”~Mel Weldon

Whatever you are harvesting now, take a moment to reflect on what type of seeds you planted and all that happened after you planted them. Did you water the garden? Clear out the aphids? Fertilize? In other words did you care for your seeds to support growth?

Once you plant the seeds for what you want, if you are aware and paying attention, you are given information on the steps you need to take to reap a bountiful harvest. This information is useful and can point you in the right direction! Are you heeding the signs? It may be as simple as your intuition telling you to take a different route home or something more profound like getting the flu so you have to stay home and care for yourself. It could also be a nagging feeling that doesn’t go away until you pay attention to it.

The universe works in collaboration with you and you really do reap what you sow. If you are not happy with your harvest, what steps are you willing to take so that once you plant new seeds you are able to recognize what your garden needs to nurture it? There is no quick fix! While occassionally there are instances of immediate gratification, growth takes time and care. You may even find that you don’t really want to take the steps and that’s OK it’s where you are; BUT if you aren’t happy with the way things are going, take some time to turn within to look at what type of seeds you planted and how you cared for your garden.

Whether you are reaping the rewards of your harvest or deciding to plant different seeds it’s time for your garden to flourish! Harvest and honor the crop you preciously planted then plant new seeds to move on! Fall is a wonderful time to “Fall” in love! “Fall” into a fresh cycle! “Fall” into fun! “Fall” into a new YOU reaping a bountiful harvest!~Shine Your Light Debbie

Within you there is energy which is yours and energy or programming which is not. Everyone has something to work on and no one is perfect and immune. Sometimes these energies are so engrained in you that you don’t even realize there is an energy which quite possibly has affected you your whole life. You don’t have to be ‘sick’ to need a healing. You can be at a crossroads and/or in a place where you are wondering why you have difficulty manifesting in some area of your life. The latter is the hardest to meet head on because you have to take ownership that at some level YOU are getting in your own way due to holding on to the ‘perfect pictures’ you have created in your mind based on someone else’s truth or past pain.

When you have gone through or are going through a challenging time or having difficulty manifesting your hearts desire you have several choices. You can push the energy aside, pretend it isn’t there, blame someone else, ignore it altogether, stuff it deep down inside you or own it and clear it. You certainly can opt for one of the first five however keep in mind that unless you actually take ownership and clear the energy you will continue to harbor its effects which sometimes lasts for years or manifests into a real illness. Taking ownership does not mean blaming yourself for something that has happened nor does it mean condoning someone else’s (or your own) actions. To be clear I’m referring to taking ownership of YOUR energy and pictures.

Everything is energy and leaves an energy signature….

Have you given up space to an energy signature not your own? It might be as simple as you were trying to be a good little boy or girl when you were little and your replaced your own energy signature with that of your parents. It could mean that you toned down your energy with friends or co-workers therefore taking on the energy of ‘what is acceptable’ so people would like you and you would fit in. Every single moment of your life is filled with energy signatures including your thoughts and those of others. Healing is about clearing these ‘signatures’ and bringing in YOUR energy to take their place. Just like eating to keep your body fueled for physical energy, daily meditation , clearing out what is not you and filling yourself up with what IS you fuels the spirit and gives you more energy to create and manifest your dreams!

You can’t heal what you refuse to confront

In order to heal you must open Pandora’s box so to speak. You must face your deepest fears, uncover the lies placed upon you and take ownership of your own words and actions. You must face pain, sadness and sometimes even grief. When you find YOU and connect with your truth the lies come flying out and at times it feels like your living in Alfred Hitchcock’s famous movie “The Birds”. It is an eye-opening time which might even translate into painful moments as you finally see the truth, accept it and release the energy signature. Acceptance creates a powerful healing and again it doesn’t mean condoning. It means seeing and accepting the truth, releasing and filling up with forgiveness for yourself and others involved. Also, confronting your personal actions from the past doesn’t make you wrong. It’s important to forgive yourself and let go of any guilt because your actions were based on the information you had and where you were at the time.

All healing is self-healing and you must truly be willing to see the truth as opposed to the jaded version you’ve seen and acted upon through filters of pain, blame or guilt. Choosing to walk the path of healing is not easy and takes courage so remember to be extra gentle with yourself. As your pictures come up and you face them in quiet relection remember there are people who love you and support your journey. Remember also to fill up with the golden healing light of universal love.~Shine Your Light Debbie
