‘If I had my life to live over, I would start barefoot earlier in the spring and stay that way later in the fall. I would go to more dances. I would ride more merry-go-rounds. I would pick more daisies’. – Nadine Stair

The mere mention of spring reminds me of a chance to begin everything in life anew. On a deeper level, I remember past lives as a Celtic maiden, playing hide and seek in the woods with friends, and delighting in the discovery of a meadow of flowers, plucking a handful of them to make herbal concoctions and a potion or two for safekeeping.

Times have changed and I like most of us, live in an overly domesticated suburban world, with only small patches and parks to remind me of my natural roots. Yet, at the first hint of spring, my shoes go flying off and I have to sink my toes deep into the green grass, to connect my auric fields back into the earth.

One evening, while I was out doing just this very thing, along with a bit of stargazing, I was greeted by the sweetest little bunny in my yard. As I stood there in the quiet of my backyard, I felt a stirring from deep within me, heralding the return of my creativity, fertility and sense of adventure. Above me the stars of my ancestors surrounded me with their love, reminding me that I never walk alone and here next to me, represented here in the form of this beautiful bunny, stood the goddess Ostara, inviting me to embrace the divine feminine and take a walk on the wild side. Never one to turn down an invitation, I opened mind, heart, body and soul and joined in on nature’s dance for a few hours, reveling in the silver light of the moon.

The next morning, I reflected on the ritual known as ‘spring break’, and how the word break means to end one thing and begin something new. Breakfast for example, means to ‘break the fast’, from being asleep and not eating, to awakening and eating, thus “breaking the fast”. In the same way, we follow a similar ritual with spring break, as we stir from the deep slumber of winter and emerge from hibernation and the cave of the home. We in this sense, like our ancestors, are breaking from the cold bonds of winter and entering a new cycle. This is why rituals were created, to mark the passage of time and the movement from one season to another or to memorialize a special event or ceremony.

Spring is the most powerful time of the year to raise the vibration of all of the auric fields. The Spring Equinox is the most optimum time of the year to raise the energy in the fields and chakras and open the heart chakra. The heart chakra and astral field open when the lower bodies are clear and the energy is ready to rise. Like the flowers of spring, all good things bloom in time.  Spring represents joy, hope, adventure and love. It is a time to play. We are emerging from the restorative period of winter and are full of energy to express. If you have planted the seeds of thought and affirmation in the fall, you will now be prompted from within on how best to take action at this time. Enjoy, for all of nature is with you at this time, bursting with color and vibrant energy. The world is a virtual feast of energy and your auric fields will soak it up every day. Throw open the windows, go on long walks, surround yourself with fresh flowers and best of all, go play.

Let Nature Be Your Guide…
The elements of nature provide tremendous resources to assist in healing and restoring energy to the auric fields. The uplifting sights, vibrational sounds and revitalizing scents of nature’s finest, renew the mind, body and spirit on multiple levels. In addition, the seasonal cycles connect us to the energetic earth based transformations.When we understand how to connect with nature, we can draw upon this energy to enhance our auric bodies. When we focus our energy in conjunction with elements, we can create forces of powerful healing energy. These forces are the most powerful during special seasonal cycles on the earth and when we harness this energy and draw it into our fields, the energy magnifies three-fold. The cycles represent the stages of life each person goes through in the physical; the spring of our youth, the summer peak of our adult years, the reaping of wisdom in our golden years of autumn, and our introspective return to spirit world in winter.

Each area of the world has its own unique energy and auric field. Mountainous areas give off one type of energy, which varies significantly from the energy of the beaches. As I travel, I can’t help but notice the aura of each area. Some areas radiate with the color so intensely that it fills the sky. One example that has always stayed with me was that I used to notice landscapes and seascapes painted by artists who portrayed an overwhelming shade of pink throughout the canvas. These seascapes were always connected with Florida and I never really understood why the artist would choose to use so much pink in their painting of a blue ocean and beige sand. I surmised that they must have been trying to capture the glow of a sunset at that brief moment when the sky turns pink. Years later, while moving to Florida I experienced what they were seeing. When driving into the state, there’s a certain demarcation line where the auric field in the land and sky connect and turn pink! I was so overcome by the beauty of it and realized why so many people are drawn to live in Florida for the healing heart energy they receive while there. It truly is a wonderful place to heal and enhance the heart chakra area. Though I no longer live in Florida, I drive there often. When I do, I can now almost calculate to the exact mile where the energy changes and the pink glow begins. It is as thrilling to me each time I see the pink hue, as it was the very first time.

Another extremely powerful area with a strong auric energy is the Hawaiian Islands. There are parts of Hawaii where the energy is so pure that you soak up the auric field through all of your five senses and even the sixth. Hawaii exudes the energy of “creative fire” and when you visit the islands, your creative energy will rise. It is rare to meet anyone who has spent time there, who has not found that they return energetically uplifted and inspired. Their auric field is recharged and full of light and vitality and is ready to create and manifest something new and exciting from the time they spent in the islands. If you are looking to make a change in your life and want to connect with your creativity and reignite that spark, a visit to Hawaii should be on your list of things to do.

Few things excite my energy fields more than a good breeze when it picks up and I feel the wind swirling around me. A gentle breeze brings much more than cooling relief to the body, it stimulates the energy fields and removes residual energy. A strong breeze, such as during a storm, electrifies this energy and after blowing away stagnant energy, it stimulates the vibration of the fields. This is why many people become excited during a storm, it stirs something deep within and calls them into action.

When you are in need of removing residual energy from your auric fields and want a quick recharge, going somewhere with strong breezes will do the trick. A mountain area with strong breezes will work as well as on an island which receives the Trade Winds. Traveling on a cruise ship also connects you with the ocean breeze. During the cruise, stand at the front of the ship and lets the breeze blow over you. Doing this activity for a few minutes a day on a cruise ship will literally blow your cares away.

There are some occasions where the wind is not helpful to removing energy from the auric fields. Dry desert winds are not beneficial. An example of how dry wind affects people is the Santa Ana winds, which blow in Southern California. When the Santa Ana winds arrive, people report feeling nervous, uptight, on edge and have strong mood swings and irritability. These winds carry a large number of positive ions. Negative ions provide a peaceful and calming effect to the human auric fields. The opposite occurs with positive ions, as they make people feel upset and uncomfortable. The overabundance of positive ions in the Santa Ana wind also disrupts the auric energy fields rather than enhancing them.

Take a Breath of Fresh Air this Spring!
To clear energy from the auric fields, spend some time in an area with a strong breeze. To restore energy to the auric fields using the element of air, refer to the deep breathing and meditative exercises throughout the Awakened Aura book. Pull in clear fresh air and pure energy into the auric fields using three deep breaths. Deep breathing exercises are beneficial to the physical body and with each exhale you removes negative energy from the body and auric fields. In addition, to add air energy in or around your home, a wind chime will move the energy around your home. Place it near a window where a breeze will blow the chime around or near an air register where it will chime when the a/c unit blows. If you prefer not to have it near a window or vent, ring the wind chime once a day to circulate air energy.

It is always amazing to me how outdated un-truths remain in the global consciousness, where people continue to believe and defend them as “facts”.  One example that comes to mind is the myth of Mary Magdalene.  Ask many Catholics and non-Catholics today who is Mary Magdalene and they will tell you that she was a prostitute who Jesus forgave, yet this is completely untrue.

In the 6th Century, Pope Gregory lumped together the stories of three women including the story of a prostitute and declared that this was the story of Mary Magdalene in order to make his point in a sermon. This lie became a “fact” endorsed by the Catholic Church for centuries, until 1969 when the Catholic Church officially stated that this information was not true and that Mary Magdalene has been misrepresented for centuries. Reportedly under pressure to reveal the truth about Mary Magdalene, they shared that what is actually stated about Mary Magdalene in scripture is that she was present at the empty tomb of Jesus and the person who witnessed the resurrection. This has always been problematic for the Church, which endeavors to downplay the role of women, while also having to acknowledge that the only person who witnessed the resurrection of Christ was a woman.

Many scholars believe that Mary’s presence was a sign of a spiritual movement that was working to establish women as equals in spiritual roles. This challenged patriarchal control and as was the custom during previous centuries until today, it was easy to discount the role and power of women by condemning them as prostitutes and dismissing them.  In the 20th Century, the truth was revealed about Mary Magdalene by the Church, yet here now in the 21st Century, ask yourself, which story is still most stated as fact about Mary Magdalene?

With this in mind, do you wonder if the Divine Feminine is really manifesting and making evolutionary and revolutionary changes at this time?  Will we see a change in religion, dogma, and spirituality in regards to the treatment of women?

In the ancient wisdom teachings, it is said that change comes first from within and then ripples outward. It is described as… “As Within, So Without”.   Can the changes come from within the churches themselves for women?

Consider this modern day story, which has all the makings of becoming an important marker in history… American Nuns are currently challenging the Catholic Church with its medieval patriarchal dominated rules. The “Sisters” are doing it for themselves, rising up and saying that women deserve equal standing in the Church, which has caused an vehement reaction from the Vatican.

A CBS 60 Minutes segment recently interviewed these Nuns to see what they are doing and why it is angering the Vatican. According to the report, it is being described as … “the Vatican is creating a new Inquisition”. It is indeed the same office targeting these women that once ran the Inquisition, only this time the target is against women who dare to stand up against the Church.

The Vatican has called the situation a “crisis” and has accused the Sisters of “insubordination, undermining the Church and radical feminist themes” and has refused to even discuss the idea of women playing a more equal and prominent role in the Catholic Church.

Women around the world are supporting these Sisters as they fight for women to be respected and acknowledged in the Church. One of the most popular support groups is Nuns on a Bus. NETWORK’s first Nuns on the Bus tour traveled in the summer of 2012 through nine states to highlight the work of Catholic Sisters. Since that initial tour, there have been many others, visiting states from Colorado to New York – and even including a “Nuns on the Ferry” trip on the Staten Island Ferry.

The Vatican has singled this group out and assigned an American arch-bishop to crack down on them. Will Pope Francis handle this situation differently? It remains to be seen.  Two years ago, in a Church riddled with controversy over priests and pedophellia, the Vatican put out a directive that said that the worst crimes that can be committed are pedophellia and…. are you ready for this…. ordaining women! It is shocking to think that those two things could be compared and criminalized in the same sentence and very telling as to why people are leaving Churches in droves and not looking back.

From Mary Magdalene to Joan of Arc, from the torture and killing of thousands of wise women during the Inquisition to the treatment of the daughters of Fatima, the castigation of women must be stopped.

The role of The Divine Feminine energy grows stronger each day and these antiquated and Misogynist views of women will no longer be accepted. I have the greatest respect and admiration for these Nuns who are working from the inside out to change how women are viewed and respected and hope that it inspires women from all walks of life and religions to do the same in their communities.

The interview with the Catholic Nuns on CBS 60 Minutes can be watched here on CBS.

Have you ever had a feeling about someone that you couldn’t explain, but the feeling was so strong that it affected how you felt about that person? When at a loss to explain how we feel, we might describe this person as dark and foreboding or the opposite, such as having a sunny disposition or being a ray of sunshine in our lives.  For thousands of years, artists in ancient Egypt and later in Rome and other parts of Europe attempted to paint the energy they felt around a person, such as a halo around an enlightened being and dark shadowing around someone who is consumed with sadness and guilt.  What these artists depict and others describe, is what I have seen around people my entire life. Since my earliest memories of childhood, I have seen colors and rays of light around people. I came back this lifetime with memories of my past lives where I was a wisdom teacher, sharing what is known as the esoteric mystery teachings.  I’ve lived and taught these teachings in ancient Egypt, Greece, India and Celtic times along with many other places and I continue to teach them again in this lifetime.

As a wisdom teacher, teaching how to see the aura in its many expressions around the energy bodies is one of the most valuable exercises I can share as it can lead to self-actualization in the body, mind and spirit fields.  When we have conscious awareness of who we are as spirit beings, it opens doors to new levels of existence on the earth plane and the higher realms.  Not only are we able to understand ourselves on a deeper level and develop further into super-natural beings of light, we are also able to understand our fellow men, women and children on a profound connective soul level.

I’ve spent this lifetime dedicated to pulling all the knowledge and wisdom from all of my previous lifetimes into my conscious fields so that I could access them freely and share them with others who wished to study the ancient mystery teachings.  I came back this time with psychic abilities including: seeing the aura, being intuitive, seeing ghosts and beings from other planes, the ability to astral travel, having prophetic and teaching dreams, connecting and working with spirit guides and the elders, possessing empathic and psychometric abilities and most importantly, a heart chakra field that is wide open to compassion and love for humanity.

Over the years, I’ve studied the metaphysical sciences in this lifetime and in others including astrology, tarot, traditional feng shui, magic, and with master teachers who share the ancient esoteric teachings from various orders around the world.  Along with my esoteric inner work, I’ve dedicated my life to teaching these skills to others with my school of the mysteries, the Temple of Stella Maris and lecturing and holding workshops around the U.S. In my exoteric outer work, I share as an author writing books and as a national columnist, and in creating The Explore Your Spirit with Kala Show, where I’ve conducted hundreds of interviews speaking with world-renowned authors, artists, teachers and researchers in the metaphysical, spiritual, paranormal and scientific realms. I’ve discussed our ancient past, worked to reveal the lost history and shared what is to come for our future.  Most importantly, I’ve worked to maintain and hold the vision that… “Spirit does not exist in just one location; rather it is all encompassing, living within and amongst us in each moment, thought and action. I believe that Spirit is raised to its highest level, when individuals gather with wisdom, compassion and a discerning desire to provide service to humanity.”  I believe that through sharing and teaching the gifts that each of us have received through this lifetime and others, great healing and awareness will come to this planet which will lead to the evolution of humanity as super-powered beings.

I believe that one of the most important factors for this evolution to accelerate is the ability to see and sense the auric fields.  When you can see the aura and the energy bodies surrounding the aura, you can see how a person is truly feeling, regardless of what they are saying vocally. You can see their state of mind, their state of health and their state of being. The various fields also show karmic ties they bring with them, guides who are surrounding them and the destined path on which they are heading.  The aura fields are like open books describing who we are on all levels.  As open books, we do not have to shield who we are, for it is on display for all the world to see. This provides a great freedom to be ourselves and live in the moment, with the conscious awareness that who we are is a constant process of change and evolution. The end result is more incredulous and exciting than many of us have ever imagined.

Can You Feel The Love

Many people say to me that they are not able to see auras or wonder if they truly exist. Seeing the first layer of the aura is relatively easy to accomplish. In the workshops I teach, typically 90% of the people I work with are able to see the first layer of the aura by the first or second exercise. While it is fairly easy to see the outline of an aura, (the etheric body is first viewed as a white border around the body) understanding what the colors inside the auric fields represent can be more challenging.

Are you wondering if you are sensitive to energy fields? Consider these situations in which you were aware of energy that you could not see with your physical eyes:

• Have you ever walked into a room and felt the mood of the room coming from the people inside, without knowing what the conversation is about?
• Have you ever walked into a building and felt uncomfortable with no apparent reason as to why you are feeling this way, but wanted to get out as soon as possible?
• Have you ever met someone for the first time and immediately felt uncomfortable and preferred not to be around them or on the opposite end of the spectrum, warmed up to someone immediately and found yourself wanting to spend as much time as possible in their company?
• Have you ever played the game where you are blindfolded and you rely on sensing energy to see where someone else is located in the room and how close you can get to them?
• If you have ever taken a tai chi or other type of martial arts class, one of the first exercises you learn is to sense your personal chi/energy field. Students are taught how to feel the energy radiating off the body and how to harness the energy between their hands, forming it into a ball. They are also taught deep breathing exercises in order to raise the energy field and expand it. These lessons connect directly into the auric field and are a great way to connect with your personal energy.

• If you haven’t explored any of these options before, another example of sensing something in your auric field, is when you are deep in thought and not paying attention to your surroundings and suddenly, you “feel” that someone is staring at you and you turn to look. The person staring at you is causing a ripple effect that is being felt from their energy being directed at you and your energy field through the aura responding to this energy wave. The auric body reacts to the energy ripple and sends a message to your conscious mind to pay attention. It is being protective in this response, so that the mind can take the next step to discern whether the person is friend or foe and how to react accordingly.

In these situations and many others, you have felt the energetic auric field around a person. There are hundreds of examples regarding the auric fields and their energy and one of the most profound stories come from the sleeping psychic, Edgar Cayce.

During the last year of his life, Edgar Cayce began work with his friend Thomas Sugrue to write a book about his work with auras. This book was intended to reveal a full discourse on auras and colors, including Cayce’s notes on how he learned via observation with his clients, the meanings of specific colors and shapes in the aura. Unfortunately, his health took a turn for the worse and he died early that year in 1945. Due to Cayce’s untimely demise, the compilation of his work and study of the auras was complied into a twenty-page pamphlet entitled Auras: An Essay on the Meaning of Colors.  To this day, Auras is a popular reference guide containing helpful information including how the colors in the aura are connected with the planets and musical notes.

As a psychic who saw auras, Edgar shared his most traumatic experience in regards to seeing auric fields. One day Edgar was in a high-rise office building, up on a high floor and pushed the button for the elevator in order to return to the first floor. When the elevator opened in front of him, he was completely caught off guard, as he could not see the aura of any person on the elevator. This surprised him, as he was used to seeing the auric field around people wherever he went. Puzzled by what he saw, he continued to stare in surprise and did not enter into the elevator. The elevator doors closed and the cable of the elevator snapped, plummeting all of the people on the elevator to their death.

The auric field was absent around the people on the elevator as it was preparing the physical body for death. Rather than its normal state of extending outward, the aura begins to pull inward into the body to gather the essence and soul of the person as the death process nears. This act assists the consciousness in the shift from the physical plane of existence of the body  into the higher realms of the spirit.

Seeing Auras – From A Psychic’s Viewpoint

From my experiences in reading auras, I’ve found that the auric body typically maintains a basic form, which resembles an egg like oval shape around the body. Emanating from this body is a beautiful white light along with a wide variety of colors, shapes and at times, swirls and patterns. While it is fairly easy to learn to see an aura, understanding what the colors and images surrounding the aura represent, requires intuition, practice and an understanding of the spiritual planes and fields around the body.

Each individual creates a distinctive pattern in their auric field comprised of the individual’s thoughts, emotions, energetic manifestations and thought forms. The aura has an electromagnetic frequency, which is sensed by others and radiates at different levels. When people resonate at a similar auric frequency level, they naturally feel more comfortable around each other and find it easier to connect on the physical, emotional and mental levels. On the flip side, people whose auric vibrations differ greatly in frequency, tend to experience more conflict with each other and find it more difficult to communicate. In some ways, because they are coming from such different energetic standpoints, it’s almost as if they are speaking two different languages. In short, birds of a feather flock together and while opposites attract, the opposing energy fields can create conflict and difficulty with communication.

As human beings, we are essentially made of light and energy. As we come into contact with another person, our auras engage and intermingle with each other. This can lead to many positive experiences, which stimulate and enhance the aura. It can also generate negative experiences, which can draw too much energy away from the auric field and leave the person feeling depleted. With a greater understanding of how the aura functions, it’s easier to recharge the aura to keep it running at an optimum level.

There are seven main layers to the aura, which are also referred to as bodies or fields. There are many people who can see the auric fields. For some intuitives, they see them with their physical eye. Others see the fields through their third eye and some only sense the auric fields. A small number of people are able to see all seven auric fields, while the majority of people see one or two fields only. Some psychics are more attuned to see physical dis-ease before it enters the physical body, while others see the energy in motion around the person, which reflects their general wellbeing.

They may also see emotional distress in the auric field, or glimpses of the akashic records being worked through in this lifetime. The akashic records are an ancient Sanskrit term, which refer to a database of records, a library of sorts, which records all actions in the universe. While each person is here on the earth plane in a physical body, part of their essence and soul remains in the higher planes. A meta-physical energetic cord connects from the higher planes down to the earth plane and attaches to the soul of each person as it resides inside the physical body. These cords move energy back and forth from the physical plane to the higher planes. Also contained in these fields of energy are the records of each thought, word, action and deed that we generate while in the physical body. These records are transported back to the akashic library where they are stored and when we pass on from the earth plane and return to the spiritual realms, we visit the hall of akashic records to review our lifetime. From this review, we can see if we generated more karma and what we created from our action.

In my work as a wisdom teacher, I teach students how to see and read auras. We discuss the types of auras, their condition and how to heal an aura that has become damaged due to shock, stress or other harmful situations. In this line of work, I continue to experience new revelations when giving aura readings for people.

What has been most astounding and exciting in my work is that in the past ten years, I’ve seen new structures forming around the auras, which I have never seen before in the auric fields.

My theory on this new design in the auric field is that we are in a quickening. We are evolving on an energetic level and our auric bodies are being recreated right before our very eyes. What I see happening in many fields now is that the energy bodies around us are being reconstructed and are opening up to allow more light and energy to flow through our bodies now, more than ever before. In addition, the grid around the auric body is expanding and the structures are more crystalline in appearance. From my research, there has been only one other time in history where there were references to the energy around the human body changing and this was in the time of ancient Egypt when the high priestesses prepared to communicate with their gods and goddesses. As we draw near to the astrological age of Aquarius, which is symbolized by the water bearer in the heavens, pouring the wisdom of the gods back down to earth, I am struck by the correlation in what I see manifesting in our auric bodies. I believe the energy fields around our body are being prepared to receive higher and stronger vibrations of energy. The effects will allow for more energy to come into our physical bodies, allowing us to live longer and with greater vitality. It will also allow for greater mental capacity as well as increasing psychic ability.

I’ve seen auras around people, nature and buildings since I was a litle girl. For years I’ve been teaching about the aura and the energy bodies and how seeing them and actively engaging with them can change your life.

Over the past decade, I’ve noticed the most interesting thing when I would see the aura around each person. The auras are evolving!

I am seeing the energy body around auras change and grow, cords are expanding and like tendrils on plants, they are reaching out to connect within the body to the organs and chakras in new directions as well as reaching further outside the body to connect and harness the energy on an expanded scale. Over the past decade, what I have been seeing in the auric fields is changing dramatically.  They are creating new energy bodies around the physical body, connecting in new patterns and forming crystalline structures to enhance our conscious evolution, including our connectivity to each other, the world, and higher planes of existence. These structures are creating powerful crystalline receivers, which allow psychic abilities to be enhanced and provide regenerative energetic force fields to heal energy from within at the cellular level. We are truly evolving into super-powered human beings and it’s happening first in the aura!

This holds such promise for the future of humanity and how we are going to connect with each other on a deeper level. Once I understood what was occuring, I knew it was time to share this information with the world, to TEACH about it, to do Aura READINGS and let people know what was happening with their aura and energy bodies and to write a BOOK about the Aura Evolution, so that each person could learn how to connect and work with their expanding energy bodies.

The time is now to share this information on how we are evolving. We are evolving into Super-Powered Human Beings! Join me, Kala Ambrose as I share how your aura and energy bodies are evolving and what this means for the future of the world and for humanity.

Read on here about The Awakened Aura to see how you can connect with me this year to learn about the Aura Evolution. I look forward to sharing this power filled information with you. My next teaching location is Edgar Cayce’s ARE. The information about this very special Weekend Workshop can be found here in the press release from the ARE, along with more information about the event!

Virginia Beach, Va. – Top psychic trainers, Kala Ambrose and Carol Ann Liaros, together with extraordinarily gifted teacher, Dr. George Brainard, and internationally renowned speaker John Van Auken, bring practical insights and techniques to detect, interpret, and balance the auric energy field at the Your Energy Body: The Awakened Aura and Your Spiritual Evolution conference hosted at the Association for Research and Enlightenment (A.R.E.), March 22-24, 2013. Auras, as seen by intuitives and psychics for centuries, are bands of light and color that surround the body. Each color possesses a vibration, and that vibration is associated with individual experiences and emotions that mirror the mental, emotional, and physical states of the body. In this conference, participants learn the unique characteristics in auras; techniques to interpret the symbolic messages found within themselves, children, animals, and buildings; how auras were depicted historically; and, how they are changing in the twenty-first century.

Christine R. Page, M.D., began her medical practice in London in 1978 and combined it with homeopathy in 1989. She is an international seminar leader on subtle energy and energy medicine, having created a three-level training program to enhance the power of intuition for health care professionals. She is the author of Frontiers of Health: How to Heal the Whole Person and Spiritual Alchemy.

She has been a guest on the Explore Your Spirit with Kala Show, where we discussed her book, 2012 and the Galactic Center, which speaks about the Galactic Alignment that began with the Harmonic Convergence in 1987 and will conclude in 2023, a thirty-six window of opportunity for humanity to participate in the creation of a new era of expanded consciousness. Christine Page explains that as the source of all creation, our galaxy is the Great Mother and its center, her heart.

Her new book is, The Healing Power of the Sacred Woman: Health, Creativity and Fertility for the Soul. According to Christine’s research, over four thousand years ago, women were seen as living representatives of the Great Mother, whose cyclical and potent energy gave birth to all existence. Today, this sacred awareness has been lost or distorted, causing a collective amnesia among women around the world. However, there is one symbol of the Great Mother’s loving presence that has remained unchanged for tens of thousands of years: the physical body. Its curves, sensuality, softness, and monthly flow are constant reminders of this deep loving connection.

Combining more than 30 years’ experience in health care with in-depth research into the history and mythology of the divine feminine, Christine R. Page, M.D., reveals that women are the foundation of the birth of new levels of consciousness, without which the evolution of humanity will become barren and dry. Yet, such birth can occur only when women have the courage to reject the beliefs and images of the feminine imposed upon them four thousand years ago and reclaim their true identity.

Through the journey into the body, Dr. Page reminds women to reconnect to the potent and creative energy of Mother Earth, which gives power to the intuitive voice of the heart and nurtures new seeds of inspiration and enlightenment through the womb.

On a personal note, I found this book to be fascinating. As a woman, I appreciated her exploration into sacred feminine sexuality and found her section on Awakening the Serpent and Dragon Power (page 151-171) enlightening and reminiscent of the techniques used in the ancient temples of the high priestesses.  Chapter Nine with the discussion of the Queen Bee and the pineal gland is also particularly inspiring.

As a mystery school teacher, of particular interest to me was her research into the Temples of the Divine Feminine along with her explanation of Mesopotamian mythologies, including the legend of Lilith, Hathor and Sophia.  She also does a fantastic job covering goddesses from all of the world’s religions.

I rate this book Five Stars out of a Five Star rating and recommend that it be a part of any metaphysicians library.

Welcome to Kala’s Bohemian Blog, dedicated to the Bohemian Ideals of Truth * Beauty * Freedom & Love, and packed with inspirations, ramblings, magical moments and musings, all intended to serve as a traveling companion along your journey. I invite you to join me here as I delve into the Mysteries of the Universe, Rediscover the Magic in the World Around Us, Embrace the Divine, Release the Inner Goddess, and Reawaken Your Spirituality!

Here today on the blog, we’re exploring the inspiration and delight of art. Those who know me well, know my love of reading and hardly a day goes by where I’m not found with a book in hand. When a book captures my attention, I enjoy reaching out to the author to discuss their work with them.  Today is one of these moments, as I reach out to chat with artist, psychic medium, and author Melissa Harris. Melissa Harris shares her art and her life as a feast of creative exploration. She expands portrait painting to open doorways into souls and sojourns in New York and Paris to learn to paint only what she loves.

In her autobiographical book, Painting Outside the Lines: The Life of Psychic Arts Melissa Harris,  Melissa reveals her beliefs about the truths of some general traits of the artist and the common ingredients of an artist’s life. She proclaims, “For me, there is no other choice but to paint.”

Painting Outside the Lines is a visual feast, vibrant, sensuous and soulful. As we enter the world of the artist as seer and adventurer, Melissa’s expressive work captures the universal stories of our own human experiences. If these oils, watercolors and collages are her medicine, this healing spreads across the pages, inspiring us to express our inner world and ignite our visionary nature, a reminder that even erratic and ever-evolving lives can lead to graceful changes and that, truly, “anything is possible!”

Let’s explore the world of Melissa Harris, as she joins us here on Kala’s Bohemian Blog…

Kala:  Melissa, wonderful to speak with you again. I truly enjoyed your book and the behind the scenes dialogue that describes your art.  What painting of yours do you feel most accurately describes you as a person?

Melissa: Ha Ha!  I had to laugh at this one because in the end they are ALL self portraits.  I would give you a different answer at a different time on any given day!  I am thinking about “Isabel’s Desire” on page 56 of the book.  We see here a woman getting dressed to go out looking in the mirror in a quirky outfit, reflective, with an open drawer and a man’s tie on the drawer handle.  There are two shells on the dresser.  The painting is chock full of symbolism for me.  I created a romantic pink ambiance with a lamp from another time period.  Even though I did this painting around 1983 or so I still relate to a reflective woman having to get herself dressed to go out in the world (I am by nature a bit of a hermit).  My ongoing explorations of myself in relationship could be represented by the tie.  I have and maybe always was a mermaid so the shells…..I prefer anything antique to modern, hence the atmosphere, and I love to dress creatively in ways that express my mood.  The painting “Reflecting” on the double spread on page 179 is also very much a self portrait with a bit of distortion in the perspective (representing how I feel “different” than much of the time as well as the suggestion of Spirit behind me, knowing that my guides and friends in Spirit are always with me.

Kala:  As an empath, psychic and artist, you mentioned the challenges of living in a large city with these gifts, versus living in rural areas in touch with nature. What advice would you give to others who have these types of abilities and struggle to stay grounded in metropolitan areas?

Melissa: I call upon several means of protection if I feel I need it.  I often wear a necklace of blue tourmaline with a chunk of blue kyanite,  which rests just at my throat chakra.  Kyanite supposedly keeps energy moving so I feel that if I freeze up in fear that I will be able to release that quickly.  And because it keeps energy moving I imagine it moving any disturbing energy that may be directed at or moving toward me continuing to move right along.  If I am feeling jittery I also sometimes visualize a cocoon of white light around me with mirrors on the outside that deflect any negative energy  in my field.  I stay very aware and am proactive in terms of avoiding uncomfortable situations.  I was mugged with serious harm to my face, especially my mouth so I am very cautious.

Kala:  In the Creatrix series, there is a work by you of woman walking with butterflies titled, Anything is Possible, which is one of your most successful commercial pieces. What do you think it is about this piece in particular that reaches out to so many people and inspires its worldwide appeal?

Melissa: I always tell people that in truth, it was not one of my more profound painting experiences in that I don’t have a magical story behind it.  I think, according to feedback from people that its’ appeal is mostly due to a feeling of hope that it conveys.  The colors are light yet strong which give it an uplifting feeling.  The subject matter itself is positive in that we see a sunrise, a woman in a posture of receptivity and grace, and butterflies which, although they represent transition are simply beautiful in and of themselves.  I’ve had people tell me that they have used it for moving through illness or as comfort after a loved one has passed away.

Kala: I noticed in your book that many of your pieces have windows or doorways as part of the scene. What do these openings represent for you?

Melissa: I think I once read someplace that women in particular tend to choose doorways and windows as subject matter.  That must be because they have often been very restricted in their lives.  I haven’t been able to put my finger on why I myself have chosen them.  Maybe it’s the idea of opportunities ahead, a way of looking to the future. It’s also the unknown and I love surprises and the fact that we, at least in this country in this time have a large degree of control over our circumstances and can create our own realities in many ways.  Oops, that was quite a run on sentence but I like doing things off the cuff.

Kala: In your book, you mention working through your emotions in your art. If you couldn’t paint to release and reflect who you are, what other avenue would you choose?

Melissa: Maybe writing,.  I’ve only recently discovered this.  Although I don’t think three dimensionally I also enjoy clay and metalsmithing, but we have to make choices- and there is only so much time- so I tend to stick to 2-D.  I also make sure to keep moving to help keep my outlook bright.  It’s true I’m an emotional woman and I tend to do something physical each day, even if I am not attached to emotion.  My top choices for this are Zumba, because it’s a form of dancing, and swimming.

Kala: Throughout history, many artists, writers and creatives describe being caught in the passion and engagement of the art they are working on and that the creation of the project produces an energy that is very satisfying and all-encompassing. Your book is candid and engaging, as you share the life of an artist and how this line of work affected your relationships and lifestyle choices. Is the work itself, the art, a deeper relationship of its own, that perhaps consumes the artist and becomes in a sense, the mistress?

Melissa: Absolutely, which is why many of my partners have not been able to deal with a relationship with me.  There is always “another lover” calling me, either out in the studio or in the landscape we are driving by.  I can’t tell you how many times I’ve made them stop the car and wait while I paint something we are passing by, or at the very least photographing it.  If I am engaged in a piece it’s always with me and I dream about it and choose colors in my dreams and wake up in a hurry to get back to it.  It consumes me for the time I am dancing with it.

2012 The Decision is Ours

As the band R.E.M. sings, “It’s the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine…”

One of the most powerful esoteric wisdom teachings I share with students, is the knowledge that: “the only constant in life is change”. We are on this earth plane to experience change on a daily, weekly, yearly and sometimes hourly basis. Each moment, our cells change, our thoughts change, every thing changes!

In the recent presidential election, both campaigns focused on the concept of change, we collectively voted for change! This is because at our core level, we know that things should not and cannot continue in their current pattern.  Our higher selves are inspiring us to make a change. One of the reasons that we collectively feel this great need for change has to do with 2012.

The Mayan Long Count Calendar, which ends in 2012, has sparked great interest and debate around the world with researchers, scholars and mystics.   Questions remain which still have not been fully answered, such as… Why does this calendar end and What will occur on the Winter Solstice date of December 21, 2012?

On The Explore Your Spirit with Kala show, I’ve interviewed authors, researchers, and mystics about 2012 and I’ve shared what the mystery school teachings have to say on the subject.  One of the most interesting conversations on the show was with John Major Jenkins, a researcher of the ancient Mayan culture.  During this interview we spoke about how the sun was moving toward the heart of our galaxy and the profound implications this would have on every species in our universe.  The Mayan Calendar reveals this galactic transformation culminating on December 21, 2012.

As 2012 draws near, I’d like to share with you what the wisdom teachings have to say on this topic…

The unit of measure, which affects everything on Earth, is Time. Esoteric teachings explain that time is not linear, it is cyclical and it moves in expanding circles.  As with all cycles, the transformation does not begin and end on one day, rather it develops and unfolds over a period of time.  We sometimes wish for a magical moment of time, so that in an instant we are transformed with one act or one secret we stumble upon which changes everything. However, this is not the case. Even in fairy tales, we see that even when the hero finds the magical talisman, their journey does not end there, rather their journey has just begun!

Esoteric Wisdom states that: Time is the Keeper and Ruler of our universe.  During the time period of 3000 BC – 3115 BC, remarkable occurrences were happening around our planet. The first dynasty of Egypt was born, the first records of written language are recorded in Mesopotamia, the Hindu cycle of Kali Yuga began, the Sumerian civilization developed the first Monarchy and the Mayans marked this period as the beginning of their Long Count Calendar. These civilizations mark a majority of the history we use as reference points to this day.

The Mayan prophecies connected this 5000 year cycle, which began around 3100 BC and culminates in 2012. The Mayans described this cycle as the troubled times which they referred to as the 9 Hell Cycles. This cycle indicated that humanity would undergo a long period of fighting and struggling with what we called our shadow self or what others describe as our lower self or dark side.

As we near the end of this 5000 year period, we are preparing for the shift into a new cycle beginning in 2013.  The Mayan prophecies highlight a 26 year cycle with three important dates as we near the end of this calendar cycle, which were reported by Dr. Jose Arguellas during his study of the Mayan/Toltec Calendars. This cycle of 26,000 years is a period of time referred to by many other civilizations around the world besides the Mayans.  These groups also refer to the Pleiades system as our home before we lived here on Earth.

Dr. Arguellas listed three important dates in this cycle: 1987, 1999 (the mid point) and 2012, the culmination. The first date is known as The Harmonic Convergence, which began on August 16th, 1987. Dr. Arguellas’s deciphering of the Mayan calendar revealed a reference around this date, which would be felt on the earth in conjunction with our sun’s 26,000 year precession around the star system of Pleiades. The significance of the Harmonic Convergence was reputed to stir an energetic quickening felt on our planet and throughout the universe. This quickening would stimulate movement back to a balanced center, assisting in releasing the shadows and delusions created during the 9 Hell Cycles described by the Mayans. The Wisdom Teachings describe this as a preparation period to learn to open the heart and mind to a new level of consciousness and to release the delusions held by ego and the lower self.

In 1999, we reached the midpoint of this cycle and began a thirteen year period preparing us for the transformational time highlighted on Dec 21, 2012.  Many teachers say that the most important work to be done during this period is self-introspection coupled with the release of old ways which are no longer working in this new energy. As this energetic cycle shift is occurring, it is an uncomfortable situation for us all. To shift with this age, we as a species are not going to be able to continue to think and act in our soon to be outdated ways of thinking.  Our biggest struggle is wrestling with our egos and our need for control. Our biggest problem is that we are still trying to “logic this out”, thinking in third dimensional thoughts and when we try to understand this change in that frame of mind, we experience fear of the unknown.

As we move closer to the 2012 transformational cycle, we are transcending into a new consciousness. This in turn, will alter our perceptions of how we view the world.  As with any period of change, it begins with conflict and chaos, both within and without. This planetary cycle is moving out of the shadow self and into a higher level of frequency.  To do this, the shadow self must be dealt with, which begins with the illusions and delusions of the ego being exposed and confronted. As this is revealed, fear surfaces as humanity has a great need for control and when the old outdated ways of thought no longer work, a panic ensues.

The ancient Egyptians taught their students in the temple how to prepare for shifts of time. I’ll share this teaching with you now…

During this 5000 year cycle of time, which the Mayans called the 9 Hell Cycles, we have faced all aspects of our shadow self/lower self. During challenging periods such as these, we enter into Maya (illusion) in order to make sense of what is occurring around us as we feel a sense of separateness from the light. During this period, we convinced ourselves that it is through the mind where wisdom is received.  The esoteric teachings maintain that the heart is where wisdom resides and the heart is the key to unlocking the divine mysteries. It is through the heart that the transformation and evolving cycle takes place.  As we move closer to the cosmic heart of the galaxy, our current logic will not assist in this process, rather we must open our hearts to prepare for the conscious connection and transformation. This is a hermetic axiom referred to as: As Above, So Below. What exists in the Universe above, is reflected within us below. The heart in our body is the center of our universe. The Sun is the heart of our Universe above. During this current transformation, as the Sun moves closer to the cosmic heart of the galaxy, so must we open our hearts within to prepare for the conscious connection and transformation.

This is the moment we have been waiting for, the reason we are here now. You have a front row, 50 yard line VIP pass to participate in the turning of an age, felt by both heaven and earth. This is the reason that you wonder why you are here and what you are meant to do. Why you think about preparing for an event when you have no clear idea of what that event is or how it will happen. It is unfolding around you in this very moment.

What you do each day, brings energy to this shift. Too often, we long for a breath-taking moment, rather than realizing that each moment is sacred.

Each day drawing closer to 2012 is an opportunity to open your heart, face your fears and shift into the light being that you are at the core level.

Of course it’s going to be difficult. Of course we’re going to face times of uncertainty and self-doubt. We’re in the culmination of a 26,000 year cycle of change and things are going to get messy.  Some of us have families that have a complete melt down in the morning if we’re out of a certain breakfast cereal and now we’re talking about an energetic change to affect the entire planet and 6 billion human inhabitants along with the animal, flora, fauna and mineral kingdoms. Things are going to get messy. The answer isn’t about avoiding change, it’s about taking what you’ve learned all these lifetimes and putting it into action. Our graduation date is upon us and our Senior Year is 2012.

This is our time to look beyond what appears to be the dark and see the light that is there, always present.  We are in a shadow time, which has been created by the collective doubts and fears of humanity.

Remember, not only is this earth transcending into a new age, but so are we, soul, by soul, by soul.

2012 is an interesting time, but I tell you what interests me more. It’s what begins in 2013.  I  interviewed Drunvalo Melchizedek on the Explore Your Spirit with Kala Show, where we discussed his new book and the Return of the Divine Feminine. What he had to say about the new cycle of time coming is fascinating and gives me great hope for our future.

What should you do to prepare for 2012?.  Use this time to go within to see what you need to clean out and let go. Evaluate What Defines You… and as I discuss in my book 9 Life Altering Lessons, ask yourself the age old esoteric questions…. Who Am I and Why Am I Here? Do you remember the secrets hidden deep within your soul? Perhaps it’s time to explore deeper and look within to find the many reasons you are here in this lifetime.

Many of you know that I spent a year on the John Edward presents Infinite Quest TV show, where I appeared on the show and read Auras live for the audience, some whom appeared on video with me and others that called into the show. You can see videos of my appearances on the show here on the Explore Your Spirit TV pages.

The Infinite Quest show was a wonderful experience and I worked with some of the most talented people in the business, both on camera and behind the scenes. One of the people that I had an instant connection with, was Paul Shavelson, one of the producers for the show.  Paul is a multi-media story teller, a pioneer in television with a four-decade long career, and the executive producer of internationally acclaimed psychic John Edward’s wildly successful Crossing Over television program.  He has spent the last decade exploring the world of psychics and mystics in his quest to find answers to the unseen patterns and events that shape our world.

Paul decided to write a book with John Edward about what happens after December 21, 2012 and the Mayan prophecy. Together, they decided to interview some of the world’s leading psychics, astrologers and visionary leaders to hear the rest of the story, including what is to come for the next decade. I was delighted when they contacted me and asked to interview me for the book, as it was a pleasure to share what I see coming for humanity in the years ahead.

The book is now available as an e-book and the title is: Beyond The Mayan Prophecy, published by Tor Books, a division of MacMillan.  Here’s some information about the book:

Featuring contributors such as: John Edward, Char Margolis, Sandy Anastasi,  Rick Levine, Glynis McCants, Mark Van Stone, Mary Jo McCabe,  Gahl Sasson, Dr. Alicia Tisdale, Maggie Kerr, Kala Ambrose, Mirabai Devi, Linda West, Derek O’Neill, Alan Oken , John Holland and Austyn Wells.

For the past forty years there have been a growing number of people who believe that nothing less than a cataclysmic change is coming in the evolution of Mankind.  From the dawning of the Age of Aquarius to cosmic forces—read Aliens—coming to engineer our DNA, to the doomsday scenarios triggered by the end of the Mayan calendar, there have been those who are sure that the world as we know it is coming to an end.  And soon.

But that cataclysmic end has not (de)materialized, or has it? In 2012 new data was discovered in Guatemala that gives us concrete evidence of a new paradigm concerning the Mayans and their calendar.  We are now faced with the idea that perhaps we aren’t staring at Armageddon but stand in the middle of a 33-year transformative process. While the Mayans might have seen a change for humanity it isn’t an ending per se.

And if there is change, why does that change need to imply destruction? Couldn’t it be an opportunity for mankind to assess their place in the universe and engage in a positive rebirth in a new era?

Beyond The Mayan Prophecy posits that our modern day weakness or confusion can be attributed to a less spiritual way of thinking. Perhaps our left side brain thinking has held us back from discovering and accepting higher planetary secrets for centuries. To move forward with more balanced understanding, Paul Shavelson has spent the last decade exploring the world of psychics and mystics.  Paul has assembled a “psychic dream team” to decode the past and to predict the future. The dialogue and interviews will be discussed through sidebars by psychic medium, author, and TV personality, John Edward, who also provides the forward, and afterword of this provocative subject.

With positive energy and a willingness to have us think outside the box (and a personal journey by the author that brings an unexpected and moving aspect to the experience), Beyond The Mayan Prophecy is an entertaining, thought provoking work that will let the reader embrace why the second half of this transition could be remarkable and inspiring.
