Have you ever wondered why so many relationships end in heartache? Even relationships that begin with incredible love, faithful promises and the best of intentions often come to a bitter end. If love is all you need, why does it all go so wrong?

What if I told you, there is a single core issue responsible for almost every break up and break down, and, not just in our romantic relationships, but in all our relationships?

As a relationship coach for almost twenty years, I share this insight with you now so that you can gain the wisdom and power to find love in all the right places.

Humanity’s Invisible Wound

Most of humanity is silently suffering from the invisible wound of unworthiness.

So many of the human experience don’t know how to practice self-love. They have become so consumed with the love, care, and behaviour of others, they have become completely lost in the shuffle. Many of you are starting to understand that loving yourself is equally important, but simply do not know how to do so.

To love yourself means that you start to consider your own needs. It means you start to care about how you really feel about things, and take the time to listen to those emotions. It is caring, supporting and encouraging yourself. It is accepting yourself as the slice of divinity you truly are, and celebrating the wonder you are that you have just discovered.

“But how do we do all those things?” you ask. It is about putting yourself on your own rotation of love. It is becoming your own guide, your own angel, your own best friend, your own loving parent. It is taking the love you so freely give to others and applying liberally to self. ~Archangel Gabriel

My beloved one…..I know you have been experiencing pain.  I know the pain you feel makes you as if you no longer want to exist on your Earth-plane.  I know there is so much going on that you may not feel as if you can take another moment of it.  Through all of this, it is hard to believe that The Universe has a plan…..but, it does.
You have chosen to manifest at this important time in your history because of your gifts of feeling, nurturing, healing and growth.  You are here to show your world how to move through that pain with grace and ease.  You are here to show others that is it possible to grow and thrive even in the face of death and destruction.  You may not fully understand it yet, but you are one of the keys of Love that is healing Earth. ~ Creator

Getting for help for PTSD through the Veteran’s Administration is a frustrating experience for many returning from war, and the typical treatments follows the psychiactric model which prescribes counseling and psychotropic medications, which for many, only further cloud the psyche, preventing any true resolution of the fear and guilt associated with combat-related PTSD. As an alternative, many desperate veterans are seeking treatment from an unusual source, an entheogenic shamanic plant medicine from Africa, named iboga.

God said:

A comparison to life as life happens could be applied to a chef or mother who bakes a cake. There are specified ingredients pulled together, many from the country the baker of the cake lives in, yet some ingredients may travel from faraway countries, vanilla from Zanzibar, for instance.

In terms of the mother, perhaps she did not have a particular ingredient at home that is required for this cake. Maybe she never even thought of making this cake at all until a neighbor left some fresh-picked apples at her door, and now the mother wants to make an apple cake.

Sometimes two ships pass in the dark or, in contrast, two long-lost brothers from opposite ends of the Earth somehow meet in an inexplicable way.

In terms of a pastry cook, perhaps a salesman dropped off some samples that led to a special recipe. It is not really one person who makes a cake, is it? So much and so many contribute to the recipe. It could be said that a special recipe was a lucky break, or, it could be said that the recipe was ordained. In fact, you might ponder on how that particular recipe and those particular ingredients leading to a remarkable cake could come together seemingly as easy as pie. Things in life do come together.

You can also wonder that there is no end to new recipes. By now, haven’t all the possible ingredients already been put together so no new combinations are left? Yet new combinations never seem to run out.

A jovial, cheery feel to the transits persists this week, with a contradictory Saturn influence mixed in. Sun begins to draw away from his conjunction to Saturn in Sagittarius, thus starting to escape the limitations of Saturn. At the same time, the revolutionary tendencies of Uranus flow freely with the powerful Sun. A very conscious and central type theme, the ages old Saturn-Uranus “restriction versus breaking free”, permeates the feel of the transits this week. Taking action to push new ideas forward, within existing structures, is a possible implementation of Sun-Saturn-Uranus.

Do you run your emotions or do your emotions run you?

It’s a simple question that is loaded with thought-provoking, inner exploration. One that really makes us sit back and think about what really is steering course in the direction our lives are headed. Are you on track towards a collision or are you on sailing on smooth waters? are the questions you need to ask yourself.

Emotions play a major role in shaping the paths in life we take. Therefore it is crucial to be in a place of mind where we can be confident that we are letting our clear intuitive processes have the controls, rather than allowing our emotions to run the show.

Don’t get me wrong emotions are a good thing, they give us the ups and downs on the road of life. To experience joy, grief, sadness and exhilaration are what being human is all about! Yet, it’s all about sitting back and knowing that an emotion is just that: an emotion and by recognizing it, you can control how you feel and take back the seat of power in your life.
