Be The Change

“You can change this future by being present in every moment, aware of your thought creations. Create from joy and love and kindness. Seek to give - not to get. 
Seek to love rather than to judge and criticize. Seek to remember your ancient past and to use it as a guide to creating a future filled with love, harmony and peace.”
Part of an Arcturian transmission shared by Ashtara 

As I sat with these words from an Arcturian message shared by my dear friend Ashtara, they stirred something deep within me. They echoed a recent experience in my own life. One that brought this message from the cosmic into the everyday, and reminded me what it truly means to be the change.

It reminded me how powerful it is simply to be the example, just by being our beautiful selves. 
We don't need to preach. When we do our own inner work, we naturally become a living demonstration of what is possible. We become the change we are looking for.

The other night I was out to dinner with three other women, we were immersed in the kinds of conversations that feel completely normal to us.  Conversations about different healing modalities such as reiki and chakra alignment. Esoteric ideas about recognizing signs, synchronicities, intuition and inner guidance.  

To some, they may seem unusual conversations, but for us, they are typical conversations between us.
As our young waitress put the plates down, I noticed with curiosity that she was trying to tune in to what we were talking about.

Moments later she came back and asked "Excuse me, I hope you don't mind me interrupting. But what do you ladies do? Who are you?" 

One of the women smiled and replied "Oh, we are all healers".
As the waitress looked at us one by one and we briefly summarised what we do in the healing modalities such as hosting women’s circles, meditation classes, reiki, massage, life coaching.
After listening to each of us the waitress said "Oh, I'm trying to work out what I want to do" 
I briefly explained that’s it is important to follow what brings you joy – the spark that lights up your heart. It may lead to a course, a teacher or a piece of information that may not be the destination, but it will guide you towards where you're meant to go.
As she turned around to walk away, I could feel something was lighting up inside of her. A spark of possibility.
As we stood up to leave for the evening, I noticed there was a white feather under our table. It was not there when we first sat down.
A loving confirmation our guides were with us, guiding this young lady.
You never know who's listening and watching. Simply by being ourselves, we can positively impact someone's life in a positive way. 
We do have a lot of help from above, but it is through doing our inner work, our light becomes visible and can shine.
By being the example, connecting with like-minded people with love and joy at the base of that, magic happens.

Magic, like a white feather. 

Magic, like lighting a spark in another.
Follow your joy. Trust your first impulse. Do not second guess the inner knowing. Be the love. Be the change.
And that's how we change the world. One by one.
