Enter into the Silence

Yesterday I was feeling the pull towards my Sacred Path Cards. My intuition was telling me that there was a message that I needed to share with others and the Sacred Path Cards would shed light on that message.

I got my deck out and pulled the Vision Quest Card. Perfect card to pull as we are at mid-year and it's time to go inward into the silence and do a check in.

"The Vision Quest card speaks of a time of new directions or a time of strengthening of the present path based on personal truth. Sometimes to find this truth it is necessary to Enter the Silence and remove personal confusion. In other instances it is necessary to actually go on a Vision Quest."

The last full Vision Quest that I did was very insightful and powerful. At the same time, a mini Vision Quest is easy to do and just requires you to sit in silence for 20-30 minutes daily. Even 5 minutes is better than no minutes if that is all you can do.

Commit to doing a mini Vision Quest daily for a full week and experience the benefits of the process.

Call on your Allies and the Ancestors for wisdom and guidance. Trust what messages come through and act on them.

Seek the Silence!

Cheryl Strayed "Wild"

One of the ways that I spend Sunday mornings in the winter is watching Super Soul Sunday with Oprah. Last year she interviewed Cheryl Strayed, author of the book Wild which is an account of one thousand mile trek she took alone on the Pacific Coast Trail.

Her interview was inspiring and now with one of my favorite actresses, Reese Witherspoon in the starring role, I am positive it will be a great movie. Prepare to be inspired!!! I am going to read the book before the movie comes out.

I do at least one solo trip to the desert every year. They are generally 5-6 day trips alone and I do a lot of healing, releasing, sorting, and ceremony on my trips. It can be frightening to be a woman alone in the wilderness. Imagine 1000 miles of doing inner work. What would you release? What would you heal? What would you embrace?

Spend some time on those questions this weekend. Remember we are in the energy of the Full Super Moon and the perfect time for releasing and embracing.

Namaste,

It's time for a Rebirth

Today I pulled the Bat card from the Medicine Card Deck. Perfect timing! Tonight/tomorrow marks the Full Thunder Moon or Full Buck Moon. It is the first full moon after Summer Solstice (which happened to fall on my birthday this year). Not only is it the first full moon after Solstice, it is the first of 3 Super Moons happening in 2014. The best time to view the full moon will be tonight in North America

It's called a Super Moon because it appears to be Super-sized. Its orbit is closer to Earth than normal.

The Bat and the Super Full Moon are calling on us to let go of our Super-sized issues that need to die a good death and prepare for rebirth when the new moon appears on July 26th. Just like the Phoenix going down in flames so that a rise from the ashes can begin, we too must let go of that which is no longer serving us.




Create a ceremony tonight to let that which is no longer serving your growth and purpose to die. Allow the Super Moon to illuminate what that limitation is. Allow the energy of Bat to represent the darkness of the cave. The bat hanging upside down is a metaphor for learning how to transpose the former YOU into a newborn YOU! It's the idea of the Shamanistic Death!

Claim Your Independence!

 Stone of the Week: Malachite

Malachite is formed in a secondary process in the oxidation zone of copper ore deposits.  It contains patterns of light and dark green bands.  Malachite is a mineral that is surrounded with many myths and legends.  In myth it was considered women’s mineral and was always dedicated to a goddess.  Malachite is a stone of the will and teaches us the appropriate application of our personal power.  

Malachite resonates with the solar plexus chakra (3^rd chakra), the center of our will and personal power.  It also activates the heart and the throat chakras allowing us to come from a place of love and speak our truth therefore keeping us in our power.  Its true power lies in its ability to clear the influences of the ego from the will, aligning the third chakra. 

Stonetalker Insights:

July 4^th celebrated American independence. This was an action taken to liberate the thirteen colonies from oppressive control. The Continental Congress of the thirteen colonies gathered on that day to vote and the American colonies declared independence.  

Now is a great time to take a look at what “oppressive interference or limitation” is representing itself symbolically in our lives. This could be represented in an oppressive relationship, career, financial situation, thought pattern, addiction or a number of other representations. I invite you to take a look at the present and see if there is a situation that has you feeling like you are not in control.  

Use the energy of malachite, our crystal clear energy stone, to assist you in declaring independence. Use your personal power to experience your own day of deliverance from fear, lack, limitations or addictions that keep you feeling as if you have no control over the situation. Use the power of your ability to choose and shape your life as you see fit, freeing yourself from anxiety worry and doubt. Instead align yourself with love, creativity and harmony. It’s your choice!

"Its time, if we haven’t already, for us to write our own declaration of freedom, emancipating ourselves from limitation, fear, doubt, and anxiety by laying claim to an indwelling Spirit within that expresses itself as confidence, inner joy, enthusiasm for life, and courage that permits us to succeed in all our endeavors." –Larry Barber

Smell of the Universe

I read a beautiful quote by Neil deGrasse Tyson this morning: "I love the smell of the Universe in the morning". I was sitting outside drinking a cup of java and enjoying the birds singing, and beyond the birds, the stillness of the Universe in the early am. Until I read this quote, I was not paying attention to the smell.
My olfactory senses were not yet engaged with my environment.

Once I engaged them the morning burst wide open with not only the sunrise and the sounds of dawn but also the smell of the morning; the wet grass from the sprinklers, the flowers as the were waking and so many other previously undetected scents.

Tomorrow, sit outside in the early morning hours and engage your sense of smell. You will be surprised by what you notice.

Namaste,

Welcome to Diary of an Earth Goddess

I wanted to create a space where I could come and share some of my deepest musings; a place where I could sit down and write from the core of my heart and soul. I wanted to create a holy space online to teach others how to navigate the through life's challenges and celebrate being  alive and being human. I am Cheyenne Rose Stonetalker and I belong to the Stonetalker Clan. My medicine name was given to me by a grandmother; a wise Medicine Women in the Stonetalker Clan on a beautiful spring day in the red rock deserts of Southern Utah after a night of ceremony. It's been my dream for many years to step fully into my medicine name and the healing light and energy that I bring to the world. I am a bridge between heaven and earth.

Welcome to my Blog...Diary of an Earth Goddess
