From There to Here

Hello. From my heart to yours, Welcome.

We are here to support advancement for each Woman coming into the light of day, presencing Herself, having walked the red, red road.

From here, where we communicate -- to there, where we network, we take insight, intuition and the silent power of our true nature out into the world,where we birth new forms. May the fruits of our labor grow.

It can only be so, in this Rise.

Personally, I am loving the word 'nexus' -- the connecting point where what has been transformed, rises to a higher expression, where passion ignites and must move itself into the world -- joyfully.

Building this blog is a pleasure unfolding.

Hearing from you, where you are on the spiral of your own evolution, is our common sharing of the road; where compassion breaks out of a heart once wrapped and kept.

Let Her OUT!

BE VENUS is the next level of service unfolding in and on my OWN evolutionary spiral.

It has been REVELATORY putting this together!

Right timing shows itself not a moment before...BE VENUS finally put in sequence years of the Walk, from the ground up. It began with Soul Fusion -- and that STILL AND ALWAYS is the foundation for all that has been born of it.

This then opened into reflections of beauty of light on this earth, through Altar Art or altarart.com, and finding the one soul expressing itself around the world.

This MOVED into next level, of initiatory unfoldments for men and woman to experientially touch, hold and live from the inner receptive nature -- all on the power vortex of Chartres Cathedral...anchoring experiential unfoldment for each individual open to receive their own intimate experience of the Divine within...who could ask for more?

I didn't. I thought this was good enough! But the platform saturates if one does not reach into greater light and demonstration of that now-conscious awareness.

It is a SPIRAL; not a destination point.

THIS moved me into the surprise of home in France being literally dropped in my lap. What richness exists if we but open to receive the gifts of the universe. The OneSoul knows. It is constantly on the lookout globally, and in our neighborhoods, to support and bring forward through connections, chance meetings, and acts of pure grace.

And now? It all comes together as if the orchestration was indeed laid out in the Akashic Records, with me the last to know.

BE VENUS is activated, and ignition ensues. The call is out to Woman of the World to show up as She Is...empty, ready to fill...Awake, Integral, Walking moment to moment conscious awareness every day of life given. Humble yet uncompromising in Truth be Told.

The Heart Knows...It wants to express the beauty of this earth. It wants to live the joys of life given. It spends its whole life seeking itself! And here we are, holding that sacred vessel intact, vibrant, alive, and ready to go out into the world.

This is quite a shift in consciousness unfolding, and we are witness and part of that massive transformational process, and outcome. Everything I do matters.

I will meet you there. It is here in these pages, in these comments and questions. It is here, in answers given to serve and support.

You can meet Her here too, in and with Woman of the World in your own life.

I hope you look for Her as I have. Because you can only find Her everywhere.

A thousand blessings,

Ani

Living the New Archetype

I, one of thousands of women, just participated in and received bountifully the gifts offered, from an on line telecast through Women on the Edge of Evolution with Claire Zammit, and guest, Dr. Jean Houston.

Highly recommend tuning in each week…

Jean Houston was throwing out in graceful but rapid fire, jewels.

She talked about the importance of THE NEW STORY, and living it — not just embracing the old archetypes — but being the co-creators of the new story.

That requires — well — embodying the new archetype.

To embody the archetype? The new one? The emerging feminine?

Where IS that?

Within. It is within. Been there all along…

Once found, you may turn inward and look to meet, greet, and merge with the energetics and awareness offered you. Then, take that out into the world and make it real.

Okay.

I’m down with that.

Embracing the archetype…living the new story…becoming the shining…

When she put it all together, I realized that my own walk has had many archetypes participating and guiding me all along the way. I have *negated* that they WERE that, so my first shift today was to re-calibrate my perception, and bow to all the facets within that have been guiding me.

Goddess, I love integration.

I’ve not seriously invested in putting identity to them before — partly because of the danger of doing that — you know — pitfalls, ego attachments, demi gods, pedestals – so I have not invested in any one of them, either by my own hand or others’ attempts. And, partly because I surely can’t go around saying ‘I’m so and so’ when actually, I am only me: Ani Lea.

Change agents take the change you are in, reflect all the facets of that change, then offer it(you) to you on a silver platter.

What morsels, what tidbits, pearls, will you finger through on that platter, then take into you?

Therein lies the embrace.

I am currently working in my inner temple space with a long-present, much-ignored archetype who did not ever go away:) And after hearing Jean, I realized this old but patient One IS the new archetype — the multidimensional representative of *what that is* within me.

I connected the dots, and know this is true for me, because the next level of work I am carving out to deliver? It is for HER.

So today, the rubber met the road.

I am just sitting in this new awareness — and feel like I have been given the greatest gift ever; a glimmering peak into more of the soul, and an ever-deepening, enriched purposeful existence.

Bowing to the God Within us All, Ani

Write Revelation

How amazing a morsel it is, that one can find revelatory unfoldment through any experience on a given day.

Where innocence rains its Presence, THERE is the Light.
That, then, begs more of Itself.
Whether it is by virtue of a person, place or meditative exploration of consciousness, there is opportunity everywhere. It is always available.
This is a profound doorway to begin to translate your life spiritually.

Write Revelation, compiled over the years into a softcover, is a witnessing, and serves as a mirror for each juncture of consciousness experienced.

And, YOU can Write Revelation!

Poetry is one of the most accessible bridges available to harness the Ineffable; to succinctly language the experiences harnessed, and then to offer that cupful for consideration back to you — to the Ineffable within you.

Subtleties of shock that can exist in one moment of revealing
may fold out into a next moment of grace, and then back again.

Be open to fall into any piece singularly.
Find and be in your own experience; that is what is there for you: the all you may find — and all you may not. It changes with each glance. This is the nature of revelation. So much comes with the asking.


Here are a few offerings for you; with a prayer for each of you who may be touching your own intimate moments of awakening — that you may grow in valuing this relation with yourself as paramount – seemingly not necessary to your survival but surely to your evolution — and so absolutely full circle back to what survival is for you.


THE APPROACH
Being offered Infinity,
I chose to not know.
Realizing the pain and death of
Not know,
Now I ask.
And so am moving through
Spiral upon spiral,
Infinitesimal color
Becoming itself;
Absorbing,
Being absorbed
As wave
Upon sun-washed wave
Pours through me here,
Racking my bones,
Aching my blood
To become.
This solar light
Turns temples to transparences
Initiating all kingdoms in its approach.


HEDGEROWS

I awoke to find
The road I had been on
Came to an end.
I stood silent,
Looking around me
As pathways dissolved.
Nowhere ahead,
Nowhere behind
Or to the sides.
Beingness
Holds
An absence
Of personal accomplishment.

AN ILLUMINA

Not by power
Not by might
But by Light.The flash
Of an illumina
Comes unexpectedly
And turns
All that has been
Into a forgettable mirage.


AWAKENING

Swinging silently from her bed,
She dropped her feet upon the carpet,
And noticed:
Had she not opened her eyes to rise,
She’d never have known return.
Some vague sense
Arose from this night’s passage,
Deep and far gone,
Of a forever so eternal an experience,
It took awakening to the morn
To remind her:
From where she had come,
She will go again.

Feminine Power Global Community

Or put it this way: the veil is lifting, isn’t it.

So when the curtain rises, what do you look like?

Are you in your shining?

Are you veiled and hiding?

Are you working with every morsel of your being to shine

and be in the fullness of the endowment that is your identity

and expression of life living through you?

These are astounding times.

Today I found Feminine Power Global Community: Women on the Edge of Evolution.

Or it found me.

There are so many of us!

The years of work, the gathering afoot, the emergence of She who We are individually and collectively, is this interconnected global community. And what I find is that each woman who chooses to participate? Has already made Her choices and is walking the walk — perhaps silently, perhaps socially — certainly always in Service — but the silent rise is on, and all of us who are integral — and know it — are a living representative of this embodiment. I do stand as one of all of us.

There is ‘an emptiness’ in that feeling. A nakedness of simply being:)

So check in: where are you in your own evolution?

Are you shining?

Are you hiding?

Are you working on yourself, polishing your inner mirror?

Are you letting fall all that is not love?

Are you a woman on the edge of evolution?

Check in– and check it out.

These are indeed the times of miracle and wonder.

We're In It

Well, if any of you still think ‘the shift’ is out in the future, you’re stuck in the past.

We’re in it now. I’ve had people say to me, ‘I can’t believe what’s going on right now…there are so many changes, and I have to prepare myself for what’s to come.’

To which I say, there IS no future. What’s to come is happening right now.

This *experience* you are within?

Transmutation.

Cellular shift. Even that sounds mild to the visceral of it on a day to day basis.

Employing all one knows, embodying all the consciousness one holds in a moment to moment practice of living — and living as love — this is the new roadmap of *center being chanted* — like monks in the monastery — we are in a constant chant of Being Here Now.

Looking to the past is ensnaring.

That sounds frivolous. But it is not about looking to the past and repeating it again and again. It is about historical gain FROM the past and shifting into a different, new operating basis. Is that not occurring?

Looking to the future? Look to living from the embodiment of the gains you have made, practicing compassionate living…and living from spiritual law…moment to moment, step by step carving a future from conscious living.

I can remember years and years of saying ‘we are birthing new forms’ as if it was a news flash! It’s not.

We are in the ever-constant state of existence — BEING essential nature.

Put that up next to 3D reality and how things ’should be’? There are divides.

Hold onto your hats,

Find each other as the chant grows,

And stay utterly true,

To You.

I Reclaimed Her

I reclaimed Her one day, when the skies opened and the earth supported me; one day while I literally, was walking the ancient labyrinth of Chartres, when I had been invited to partake in the wound, to support its existence, to enable it — with very, very high stakes.

What happened by my then-discernment and understanding precisely what I was involved in, the choice I made, the result of that choice humanly, was an odd combination in quick succession; first a cracking, then a release of the holding, then an emptying out.

You hear it all the time — empty to fill. It’s part of the language in the movement of the feminine…Empty, Woman.

You really don’t know what it means until — it happens . That is what gave me the next moment’s gift I had only read about; the angels were singing layers upon layers that echoed across an infinity unharness-able by the human ear, unimaginable by 3-D reality, but yet pouring through me in symphony and light that brought me to my knees.

People were walking the labyrinth all around me. No one noticed. No one could, I guess. Clearly they weren’t hearing what I was listening to, or we’d be a cathedral full of fallens on our knees.

But I didn’t notice anyone on their knees shocked with the symphony — except me. And I was too involved in the opening except to say, there were all these people around…and around and around they kept going.

I staggered. And kissed the ancient stones. Said thank you.

They were very cool on my lips. And oddly, intimately familiar.
I don’t know how else to say it.

I waited there, on my knees, palms opened out, taking in the stone, until IT moved through the exquisite sounds and harmonics, the stillness within that was listening… and until I could stand up.

I didn’t know then that this was my moment of reclamation. I knew something big happened. But you can’t really project ‘big’ out into the future that it means this or that — you can only process and integrate it as a shift, and let evolution carry you forward.

I worked years walking that path of reclamation — each gateway clearly one to walk through. I walked it for myself and with all who have come in to share and witness; to touch and hold the sacred, available experience at Chartres Cathedral.

Every movement into and with Chartres — is profound.

Here I am, years later, and I still open into that walk whenever asked. It’s part of my blueprint.

There is an uncompromising element to reclamation; a moment when you cannot any longer give sway to what isn’t, as real as it is.

This may sound crazy. I figured out years ago if this was craziness I was walking, it was far more valuable than a cage, so I stuck to it.

It’s worth it. But it’s a secret. And, it’s well kept.
It’s earned, it’s sacred, it’s holy.
And, it’s all yours for the asking.

But enter yet another misconception: you hear all the time, be careful what you ask for. And this is very true. But if you think ‘it’s yours for the asking’ means ask and you shall receive? Well, that’s true. But it’s not a one shot deal. It’s a constant working, a constant carving of the stone, a constant internal drive that propels you TOWARDS reclamation.

When it happens? That’s a cosmic joke.

Because you don’t realize it. It’s a silent turnkey. The world turns inside out, perspectives shift, cosmic humor really kicks in, and you have learn all over again, how to navigate, given the shift. How to navigate — and live with the gain.

This takes time, due diligence, and relying on the truth of the revealing to guide you through — and THIS requires trust — and allowance.

Be Venus: Woman of the World

Decided it is time to put out the call; to gather Women of the World as — well, to me it looks like a standing wave.

A standing global wave of thousands of women connecting, sharing, holding elevated consciousness at a group level …Picture a wave coming in: WoW showing up. Practicing the four-fold way.

Do we all know what that is? It’s four easy steps to a good life living: show up, pay attention, tell the truth, and be open to the outcome.

Woman in Iceland. Norway. Sweden. The Balkans. Woman in Asia, Africa…Woman in America…Woman in Ireland, England, Europe…Have I left anyone out? Women of the World: use this forum — this platform — to share your comments, your dreams, your work in the world.

It happens by grass roots, by Facebook, Twittering, Email — it happens by connection.

WoW: Connect In. Be Venus. Find the pathways. Live our Joy.

Altar Art

Courtesy of Dragomir



ALTAR ART


How do you live this life?

Do you include and integrate the Sacred
or do you put it off on the back burner until later?

Altar Art exists to support you in the LANDING of ART
on an ALTAR in your home!

That fulfillment is in your hands:~D

What is your preference?

What mirrors your consciousness/reflects the light?

Bringing the Sacred into your home or even your office life
adds 'The Ineffable' into your earth space environment.

Consider creating an altar.

If you have one, consider upgrading it to meet yourself:~D
Practice holding the highest light and vibration you are within.

This changes -- possibly as frequently as day to day.

Why?

The answer is not, 'why not?'

The answer has to do with your priorities and how you hold, give space and energy to the coalescing of the Divine in your life.

An altar is just that; coalesced form around an energy you resonate with -- sacredly.

What does that look like for you?

It can be a facet of archetypal masculine/feminine within the mythology you live;
a facet of the Divine Feminine;


a sacred space you have visted on this Earth and returned from with an icon or object that is elementally aligned with it.

It can be the simplicity of stones you've gathered, earth you've cupped in your hands and brought home, water from a holy place such as Lourdes, fire of a candle you enjoy burning -- crystals you've worked with that you want to include -- the Altar is brought out from within you, from within your intuitive nature, to express the magic and Presence of Light within You.

It is an honoring of You, that you bring forth in reflection.

So you see, an altar is not about somebody else; not about a deity outside of you -- although it can be -- but it includes the reverence paid to whatever it YOU hold sacred; a command for sheer Presencing to be acknowledged.

This matters.

People travel thousands of miles to pay homage to sacred sites. There is good reason for this; they are full of divine discontent; the desire to connect with and contact the Mystery IN FORM; they are full of the Sacred -- invisible to many, but available to all.

Creating an altar gives you a turnkey into the Ineffable; one you can return to over and over again for reflective, pensive contemplation.

How can you begin to create this?

Step by step, intuitive hit by intuitive hit. The turnkeys are what you know them to be.

Trust yourself.

Bowing to the God within,
