Request from Cheif Arvol Looking Horse

Gulf Coast Oil Spill – Sioux Prayer
Request – A letter from Chief Arvol Looking Horse (Present Chief and
Keeper of the Sacred White Buffalo Calf Pipe of the Lakota, Dakota,
Nakota Nation of the Sioux)

Gulf Coast Oil Spill - Sioux
Prayer Request
****** A Great Urgency ****** To
All World  Religious and Spiritual Leaders ******


My Relatives,

Time  has come to speak to the hearts of our Nations and their Leaders. I
ask  you this from the bottom of my heart, to come together from the
Spirit  of your Nations in prayer.
We, from the heart of Turtle Island,
have a great message for the World; we are guided to speak  from all the
White Animals showing their sacred color, which have been  signs for us
to pray for the sacred life of all things. As I am sending  this
message to you, many Animal Nations are being threatened, those  that
swim, those that crawl, those that fly, and the plant Nations,
eventually all will be affect from the oil disaster in the Gulf.
The  dangers we are faced with at this
time are not of spirit. The  catastrophe that has happened with the oil
spill which looks like the  bleeding of Grandmother Earth, is made by
human mistakes, mistakes that  we cannot afford to continue to make.
I asked, as Spiritual  Leaders, that we
join together, united in prayer with the whole of our  Global
Communities. My concern is these serious issues will continue to
worsen, as a domino effect that our Ancestors have warned us of in their
 Prophecies.
I know in my heart there are millions of
people that  feel our united prayers for the sake of our Grandmother
Earth are long  overdue. I believe we as Spiritual people must gather
ourselves and  focus our thoughts and prayers to allow the healing of
the many wounds  that have been inflicted on the Earth. As we honor the
Cycle of Life,  let us call for Prayer circles globally to assist in
healing Grandmother  Earth (our Unc’I Maka).
We ask for prayers that the oil spill,
this bleeding, will stop. That the winds stay calm to assist in the
work. Pray for the people to be guided in repairing this mistake, and
that we may also seek to live in harmony, as we make the choice to
change the destructive path we are on.
As we pray, we will fully  understand
that we are all connected. And that what we create can have  lasting
effects on all life.
So let us unite spiritually, All
Nations, All Faiths, One Prayer. Along with this immediate effort, I
also ask to please remember June 21st, World Peace and Prayer
Day/Honoring Sacred Sites day. Whether it is a natural site, a temple, a
 church, a synagogue or just your own sacred space, let us make a
prayer  for all life, for good decision making by our Nations, for our
children’s future and well-being, and the generations to come.
Onipikte  (that we shall live),

Chief Arvol Looking Horse

How Past Life Regressions can Help With Weight Issues.

We have all been many things.The idea is to release that energy and not compound it. We carry the energy of the past with us.  Say in one lifetime you lived in a culture  where being plump or heavy was beautiful (let's say Reuben's time). Being heavy meant wealth, beauty and power. Now fast forward to another lifetime where you died in a concentration camp of starvation. So in just 2 lifetimes you carry the energy in your deep subconscious of "food is good, fat is good... no food is bad, being skinny means horrible death".. So if you are heavy in this lifetime, how well do you think diets are going to work? Especially since the subconscious rules our attitudes and behaviors about 92% of the time.

The idea in going into a regression is to re-experience the past and learn the lessons we were supposed to learn. Tie that into how we are carrying those beliefs forward into our present lifetime and let that go.

There are many ways to release those limiting beliefs we carry. Sometimes just by bringing them to our conscious mind, we can let them go. We can realize that we are NOT in a concentration camp and we no longer have to pile on the food in order to stay alive. We can understand that while in Reubens time being fat meant power, that no longer applies to us today. We can make those connections and let those thoughts go so we can just deal with the issues of today.

You Can’t Fool Mother Nature

I thought about waiting until Wednesday to buy the new car but was really fed up with my old one. Losing power, remotes that no longer worked, trunks that didn’t open, locks that didn’t lock and a weird smell from which I couldn’t quite place the origin, was making my life more difficult than it had to be. Yet I knew it was probably a bad idea to buy a car when Mercury was in retrograde.

For those of you not familiar with planets in retrograde: a planet is described as retrograde when it appears to be moving backwards through the zodiac. On April 18th, 2010, Mercury the wise communicator—and universal trickster—turned in the sign of the Bull, sending communications, travel, appointments, mail and many electronics into chaos. So if you have been having problems with your computers, cell phones, cars, busses and train schedules, the stock market, negotiations, trade etc. - you can thank Mercury.

It's best to avoid making set plans during the Mercury Retrograde. This means being cautious about things like signing contracts, and forming partnerships. What gets put in writing at this time may turn out to need serious revising after Mercury returns to direct station. I also knew that Mercury wasn’t going to go out of retrograde until today. The salesman wasn’t going to be there today though and those of you who know me, know I am not long on patience. I tried to convince myself that 5-10-10 was a cool date to buy a car and maybe numerology would win out over astrology. So I boldly signed the papers and bought the car.

I was at the Acura in Libertyville and drove off with my shiny new car about 9:30 pm. I drove over the train tracks and flash: a light comes on that says my ABS brakes may not be working properly. Great. I kept driving and the little voice in my car (not my head) told me to turn the car off and then on again and if that didn’t fix it to call the dealer. So when I got to my next red light [this time the little voice in my head] said "go ahead, turn it off and see what happens". So I am on a very dark part of Route 83 in a left-hand turn lane (thank God) when I turned the car off and pressed the button to restart it and .....nothing. That’s right. N-o-t-h-i-n-g! No lights, no hazards, no nothing. DEAD. One mile from home. I quickly called my husband to come and park behind me with his flashers on so no one would hit my black car on a dark road. I then called the cell phone of Scott, my salesman. He had written it  on the back of his card with a cheery "If you ever need anything you can call me directly" .  So I stood behind my car with my iPhone warding off any would-be turners and started laughing. Mercury in retrograde! Served me right. Within a few minutes the Lake County Sheriff arrived and stayed with us until Scott showed up a few minutes later with wrench in hand. You see, the car had been on the showroom floor and they had removed the battery so that it wouldn’t be used every time someone looked inside. When they put the battery back in, someone forgot to tighten down the bolts. When I went over the railroad tracks it loosened it.

I must say, I was very happy with the service I got at Acura of Libertyville. Things happen. What is important is how willing someone is to help you afterwards. My salesman Scott could have told me to call roadside assistance, but instead he immediately and personally took care of me along with a boatload of apologies. I’m glad I bought the car there. But, as my husband said "You can’t fool Mother Nature!"

The Pain of Mother’s Day

Going out to brunch, flowers, frantic scurry for forgotten cards/gifts, juggling in-laws and feigning sleep waiting for that burnt toast while the children prepare breakfast in bed. All happy memories made even more poignant by the incessant lovey-dovey commercials depicting the perfect Mother’s Day.

            What about the pain of those who have abortions, miscarried or had newborns die? According to an article in the Tribune this morning by Burt Constable, over a million mothers face this sort of pain every year on Mother’s Day. Then add the pain of infertility, mom’s who have lost older or adult children, those of us who have lost our moms or people who can’t get along with their moms/children. Suddenly the pain of millions makes a chink in that ever-popular utopian holiday.

            First, energetically, lets talk about abortions, miscarriages and newborns. We all pick our parents. We pick them based on a number of things; age, race, genetics, personalities… in a souls agreement with them before we are born. We all agreed to be together in this lifetime. Or not. What I mean by that is, we are all here to learn lessons. Occasionally the parent(s) lesson may be that they need to suffer a great loss to learn an important lesson in order to grow on a soul level. The would-be baby agreed to fill that contract. So the soul comes into being for a limited time in order to facilitate the parent’s learning. It is not a punishment. It is not a degree from the Almighty. It is simply a lesson, albeit it a difficult one, that the parents have agreed to before their incarnation.

            The other end of the coin is that the baby’s soul decides it simply isn’t ready to fulfill it’s own contract. Perhaps its life plan needs more tweaking or if the lesson plan is changed, these are no longer the appropriate parents to help them learn those lessons, either racially, genetically or for a whole host of other reasons. NO blame here. NO “if I were the right parent, they would have wanted me”….  It was not the right time for that soul.

            My mom used to tell us that “God never gives us more that we can handle”.  Although I believe there is Divine manipulation of events in order to facilitate our learning, I believe we set this up ourselves. I have this vivid picture of these souls sighing up there before incarnation and one of their soul “buddies” (perhaps the child) saying “Are ya SURE you want to do this”?

             I have a client who lost triplets only a few short days after they were born. Many ask, why would anyone agree to such a cruel and devastating “lesson”? Clearly, she is an older soul who has chosen a very difficult life this time around and she is to be commended for her courage in doing so. By focusing on how those souls have helped her to grow as a person, how they still continue to influence her in her life and how they prepared her for further devastation in her life, she continues to move forward reaping the knowledge that these dear departed ones imparted. Does it mean that she has no sorrow or doesn’t miss them? Of course not. Especially since we form energetic bonds to people. (more on that next time).  What is does mean is that she can fully appreciate what they had to teach her. She can let go of the guilt, of the “what if’s” and the “I should haves”.

            I don’t know any parent who has lost a child who isn’t forever changed. Embrace that. All is as it needs to be. They can either surrender to the horrible sadness and wallow in their sorrow or move forward so that they don’t have to continue with the lesson another way. They can learn and grow and be who they are meant to be, all thanks to those children!

So to all the mom’s who have lost children either through abortion, miscarriage or death, I send you many blessings, and urge you on Sunday to celebrate and give thanks to those souls who helped you fulfill a very important contract in your life.
