“Emotion is what counts: it is more valuable than anything.” ~ Samael Aun Weor

“I was coming to fully appreciate the shamanic wisdom that has long understood that the healing journey does not always take us directly into the light, but instead often requires us to enter the dark places within that are the home of our demons and shadows, the realm of the Soul’s separation and wounding, and therefore the home of its deepest healing and renewal as well.”

~ Kathy Parker: Resonance Alchemy

“Are we too busy generating frantic ripples within our own soul to notice the eternal, celestial light reflecting upon its surface?

The agitation of our restless desires, anxieties, and chaotic thoughts acts much like a violent storm upon a vast, open lake. This constant turbulence distorts our perception, making it impossible to view anything with true clarity or depth. We are often so preoccupied with the exhausting struggle against the waves of our own making that we fail to recognize the profound, underlying beauty that is already present within us.

However, when you cultivate intentional stillness through presence and surrender, the waters of your consciousness gradually become calm and clear. In this sacred state of profound repose, the immense vastness of the cosmos finds its perfect mirror within your very being. You begin to realize that your essence is not separate from the infinite: rather, it is a luminous reflection of the entire, breathing universe. Through silence, you achieve cosmic union and eternal, unshakable peace.” ~ Suzanne Giesemann

“This is done through allowance. “Let my eyes be opened to see the truth in all things. Let my heart be opened so that I may be in love with all things. And let my experience be that of the one who has come, who has seen, who is in love and claims all things anew.” Restoration is a passage one undergoes.” ~ Paul Selig

“It's okay to feel all of the stuff you're feeling. You're just becoming human again. You're not doing life wrong; you're doing it right. If there's any secret you're missing, it's that doing it right is just really hard. Feeling all your feelings is hard, but that's what they're for. Feelings are for feeling. All of them. Even hard ones. The secret is that you're doing it right, and that doing it right hurts sometimes.” ~Glennon Doyle

“It’s okay to feel. To feel deeply. To feel intensely. To let your emotions control every part of you, even the parts that should be rational and poised. This life is too short to not experience things fully. Too short to not be true to the thoughts rolling around your mind. And too short to not be yourself—your good and bad and crazy and sullen and lonely and joyful and quiet and ecstatic self.” ~Marisa Donnelly

“What if they simply arrived at the very moment your own heart was ready to open?

When love starts to develop outside the person, it does not mean you love that person less. The person shows you something that you could not see before. The love is not asking you to stay focused on the person. The love is asking you to see the beauty in the person the love is asking you to see the light that is reflected in the person.

That light can be seen everywhere.

In smiles of strangers.

In the silence of the Trees.

In Children's eyes.

In the birds.

In the stars.

In you.

You begin to love the light without believing the love is only in the form. The love does not have to remain in that form. It can be seen everywhere.

The light can be seen in the present moment, you begin to love the moment without any expectations.

You begin to appreciate the moment. The moment is continuously renewing itself.

You begin loving the moment without leaving the moment. You have not secured the future.

It invites you to remember everything that you thought you did not have before.

When you start carrying that remembrance within you, you see every meeting as sacred, every farewell as sacred, every opportunity to uncover your infinite love that is your true nature.

From where you are, there has only ever been one heart manifesting itself across countless forms.” ~ Arcturians
