I felt a stirring... a calling if you will, to create some magick. To connect and really tune into aspects and messages from my inner Goddess that I was missing. So I tuned in. I got a lot. A whole lot. It was a little shadowy, it was a little more than uncomfortable but the energies were ripe under this moon to fully see those parts of me... To really have them illuminated to see without fear or judgement. I saw some raw parts in me that needed some love. I saw that there were places in me that needed some tending to. And it happened because I decided to pay attention. I mean, really pay attention.

And so I saw these parts in all of the raw and unloved state. And with all the love and acceptance I could muster... I scooped them up and allowed them to be not only placed under the moon in all of Her glory but to be dissolved in the sweetness of Her light.

I cried with the full understanding that no matter how far it is I feel I have gone, or how many tears I may shed over bits of moments like this, where self discovery can be a bit uncomfortable; it is sweet. It is sweet because I know that I have looked at, acknowledged and cared about a part of me that was hidden.

​I gave it permission to come out and fully be illuminated. Transformed, by the light of Her moon. 

It is generous, this life...
This magick.

I love it all.

For a little bit of time now, I have been asking Goddess to show me my highest path, my highest course of action to take with my Life Work. I have meditated, journaled, gone "within" and even though I felt like I received answers, it wasn't the "Fullness" of what I was seeking. I wanted to be "Told" what it was that I was supposed to do with my life work. I should know by now that Goddess does NOT work that way. 

Goddess will leave you clues, inspiration, insights, self discoveries and plenty of a-ha moments, but the real understanding comes when you piece it all together. YOU have to be the one to do the work because it is only then that you really "get-it". And as much as I would love to believe that I was listening, I didn't really get it... until recently.

Have you ever felt called to do something, get a HUGE insight about it, only to skirt around and find something else to do with your time? I call those "delightful distractors". I can come up with so many things to be distracted about... and I was doing just that! I found all sorts of things to keep me busy.

But here's the real truth... I was scared to own all of my power... all of what I know has been calling my soul. It seemed so profoundly HUGE, that I didn't feel up to the task. And truth be told, I was scared. I was triggered. I felt overwhelmed. So, I did what I knew best... I found something else to do... I found another "delightful distractor" to occupy my time. But no matter how hard I tried, the nudging and stirrings of my soul would not leave me alone. 

I am so glad that it didn't. 

This is my work. 
The work is my joy.
My joy is my purpose. 
My purpose is the song of my heart. 
It is the song of my soul.

I am in deepest appreciation to Goddess for allowing me this time to grow and really see. 
What is to come? Only Goddess truly knows the fulness of it. 
I believe I am ready. 
But only Goddess really knows if I am.
I am Hers in service to the Divine...
And I am splendidly happy.

So much love, 
Shakti

I had a dream one night... not too long ago, of a painting. In this painting there stood a woman. She was dressed in what I would call a bohemian look. 
Her hair was in fabulous spunky dreadlocks, she was vibrant, colorful and full of magick. In my dream, I called this woman in the painting, "The Priestess". By the looks of her, you could tell... You could just tell that she danced to the beat of her own handmade drum. She wore the clothes and colors that spoke to her. She held her head in such a way, that she looked directly into the worlds eyes. On her wall, hung several masks. There weren't a lot. Only two. One mask looked like the happy mask... the sort of mask that one would put on to wear "the happy face". The other looked like a face that was reserved, poised and withholding. I noted to myself how she had hung these masks. She wasn't wearing them. They were now part of someplace that she had been, but not where she was going. I was immediately inspired by this "Priestess". She didn't need anyones permission to be her full, authentic self. 

As I too am journeying in intending to always present my most authentic self, this dream came in a time where I was making a decision on what to offer in One Ascension. There is my Priestess side that hardly is represented as much as it should. I am changing this. It is time for me to encompass the fuller version of who Melanie is. I share this with you so that you too may share all of you. Present all of you for the world to be inspired by. 

You are unique and hold your own beat within you to drum. I can't wait to see your dance!!!

I have been thinking a lot about the season of Spring lately. The symbolism of the egg, fertility and growth surround us in many ways. Like the Emerald Tablets with the powerful esoteric teaching: "As above, so below. As within, so without," We are seeing a divine mirror in this powerful energetic shifting. 

What is taking place outwardly, is also taking place inwardly. Do you feel the shifts? I do. I feel like a rebirth is occurring. It leads me to really put myself in an energetic space that is in alignment with what I am ready to live... what I am worthy of. 

We are all worthy of amazing things. Life is meant to be experienced with love and joy. We can learn just as easily with divine ease and joy. The old paradigm that we must suffer in order to learn is far outdated and not in resonance with the energy that is coming in. The School of Hard Knocks is receiving one less pupil. I am officially withdrawing my attendance there! How about you? Are you ready to receive the beauty and gifts that life is holding for you? Yes? Good!!!

A rebirthing of consciousness is taking place. We are ascending as we are letting go. We don't have to fall into the mass consciousness that in order to "gain" there must be "pain". No. This is over. The only pain that we go through is the one that we inflict on ourselves by believing that we are less than, unworthy, that we are incapable of tremendous things! Incredible things! We are divine beings, infinitely connected to Mother/Father God. The All That Is resides within each and every one of us. How do we manifest more of this magic in our lives if we resist our divine inherent identities? 

Do you know who you are? 
Remember. 
You are divine. 
I see divinity all around me. 

As within... so without.

So much love!

Spring is here in the north! O happy day!

The time to plant new ideas, seeds of intention, cleaning out stagnant winter energy and taking in the fresh, clean air is upon us.

Winter really felt like it took its toll. Energetically, for a lot of people that I talked to, deep rooted healing occurred. We gathered in the womb energy to gestate and reflect. Now, the days are brighter and getting longer. It's a time to rethink what you thought was once true for you. Take a look around you. Is there anything that is no longer working but that you are merely holding onto for nostalgic sake? Time to hug it once last time, and kiss it goodbye. We are in the time of freeing what is no longer working and welcoming in with loving arms, what does!

Take courage in these months to come to try out new things. Dare to venture where your soul is leading. It can be scary at times. But even with your knees knocking, you can do what your soul is pulling you to.


Remember: That in which you are seeking, is also seeking YOU!


Biggest loves!
