Walk the Talk: the message of the November Clan Mother

So easy to say but not so easy to do! The thoughts of negativity and judgment slip into my mind on occasion and even, sometimes, out my mouth! Once they have passed these lips their vibration effects the world in a negative way.

Awareness and commitment to walking the talk help me catch the thoughts before they transform into words and, so, they become less and less a part of my life.

How easy it is to pass the buck when it comes to responsibility. Currently the news is filled with people complaining about the process of getting the flu vaccine. They complain about the long line-ups and they complain that people, who are not on the priority list, are getting the vaccine.

We are the people. We are the ones who are lining up. We are the ones that are showing up even though we are not in the high risk category. We are the ones causing the problems. Why is it that we need the government to dictate how we should act?

We have passed the buck on our responsibilities. “It’s not my fault. They didn’t make a law stopping me from doing it.” That’s about how we are living our lives as a society. If we took responsibility for our own actions then we wouldn’t need to be controlled.

I used to think that some of our safety laws are good, valid, laws but now I see many of them as ways to make us act responsibly when we should be doing that ourselves. Our children should wear helmets when riding bikes. Does that need to be a law? We should keep our attention on driving and two hands on the wheel instead of on a cell phone. Does that need to be a law?

If we all thought about and TOOK RESPONSIBILITY FOR the ramifications of our actions, both now and for the next generations, BEFORE we acted, our world would be much different than it is now!

When you are feeling testy you are being tested!

Step back and refocus on your intentions, your choices, and your well-being!

The number of times that I have caught myself being a little snippy .. way too many… and it just didn’t feel right. Stepping back I usually found a bit of ego talking, forgetting that everyone walks their path in their own way and on their own timeline. The effect of listening to the ego was not only some not-so-nice interactions with others but also an ill-feeling within myself.
A little reflection and deep-breathing and the mind was cleared and the ego voice quieted… and, once again, I was back on track! And now, the occasions of testiness are few and far between. Thank goodness!

What are your personal signs of being tested?

Imagine that every action that you make, every word that you speak is Sacred.
How does that change things?

“The 13 Original Clan Mothers”, by Jamie Sams is an excellent resource, a well-written book, an inspiration and wealth of wisdom. It speaks of the 13 aspects of the feminine energy that helps us live true to Self. When our feminine energy is in balance with our masculine energy we walk our path of Truth.

Some days that masculine energy is hard to tone down — the fears, the resentments, the retaliation thoughts, the need to win, etc. In those moments we need to sit quietly and listen to the voice within.

In those difficult moments how do you “fight” the urge to act from a place that is driven by the masculine energy, the “survival of the fittest” realm?

All things (words, actions, objects) created from the Spirit Within has a positive impact on the greater good and for the next 7 generations.

Are you believing the justifications that you tell yourself or are you listening to the truth from within?

Listen to your emotions – they are what drive your choices. Are you acting out of pain rather than joy?

Listening, truly listening, to that inner voice means accepting the message and acting upon it. How often do we choose to disregard those inner thoughts and feelings?

Listen to that gut feeling, that tingle on the back of your neck, that sign that something is “off”.
