Those vibrations have power, the power to create. Each thought vibration is like a seed carrying potential substance into the realm of creation. How you interpret, think, and feel about everything you encounter arises out of your belief system and impacts your vibration. It acts as a lens through which you filter life.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Unless you have consciously chosen your beliefs, you are still carrying the ones you learned in childhood. It’s often not easy to realize the limiting nature of those beliefs and how much they impact your life experience.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">A belief like, “You have to work hard and sacrifice for what you get in life,&#8221; sets a certain tone that impacts your prosperity flow. A completely different vibration comes from the belief “All my needs and desires come to me effortlessly and easily,” or “I create my life dreams with ease and grace.” Your personal awareness expands as you examine your beliefs to determine if they were consciously chosen or unconsciously passed down to you.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/divinefem.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-6150" title="divinefem" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/05/divinefem-213x300.jpg" alt="" width="213" height="300" /></a>Images of the Divine Feminine are found in many cultures and spiritual traditions. While she&#8217;s had a growing wave of awareness over the last twenty years she still remains a mystery to many.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Personally I&#8217;ve been actively connecting to the Divine Feminine since the late 80&#8242;s and continue to open to her guiding wisdom. By working with her I&#8217;ve learned to honor the feminine energy as it flows through all aspects of my life. The interesting thing is my relationship with her has also brought a deeper healing with masculine energy. The clearer the energy is between my feminine and masculine the more effectively I create and that impacts my finances and business in a big way.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">I&#8217;ve witnessed a lot of women, over the years, reconnect to the Divine Feminine without taking the next step of healing and reintegrating with the masculine and it almost always impacts their financial flow. Women and men need both aspects to fully thrive. I know it seems obvious but creation occurs when the feminine and masculine unite.</p>
<p><span id="more-6148"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If either aspect isn&#8217;t honored and included, creation capacity weakens and the ability to thrive is reduced. Take the example of companies who&#8217;s actions have caused great consequence by ignoring the environment. Connecting only to the masculine in business means there is action but it isn&#8217;t connected to the soul or the whole of the person or the planet. Leaving out the feminine leaves people (especially women) feeling burned out, dried up, and frustrated. Their deepest soul needs are left unmet.</p>
<p>After many generations of being in a masculine centered culture most people still need to honor and integrate the feminine. However, once this happens the masculine needs to be reintegrated in order to fully financially thrive.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Nature models this integration of the masculine and feminine principles daily. Learning to apply Nature&#8217;s creation principles can help you grow anything, including a financially thriving business.</p>
<p>If you are ready to practically claim your Divine Feminine powers in order to create a financially thriving business then join me June 1st on the Gemini New Moon Eclipse and step into your next level of success!</p>
<p>Many blessings, LIsa</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">Listen to this 8 minute audio to understand this window of creation opportunity.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: medium; color: #800000;">May 1-5 two important timings create a great window to energize and boost the growth of your money and wealth</span>.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This window is also great for grounding the next level of your business plan for the year!</p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong> </strong></span></p>
<div id="attachment_6006" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 208px"><strong><strong><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Wheel.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-6006" title="Wheel" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/Wheel.jpg" alt="" width="198" height="149" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Wheel of the Year</p></div>
<p><strong><br />
<span style="color: #800000;">WHEEL OF THE YEAR POINT: May Day, Beltane</span></strong></p>
<p><strong> </strong><span style="color: #000000;">Celebrated May 1 Exact May 5</span><strong> </strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Beltane is the cross-quarter Wheel of the Year point following Spring Equinox. Also known as May Day, it marks the starting point of the turn toward summer. The flowers are in full bloom, and the days are definitely longer. <span id="more-5987"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Beltane is the starting point for the growing summer season. The Solar Fire and the Earth Goddess unite now and bring forth new plants to feed the multitudes. This union of Earth and Fire is essential for the growth of crops, so it is honored with feasting and ceremony. The dance of the May Pole, for instance, represents and celebrates the powerful union of the masculine and feminine principles.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Each of us carries internally the two basic principles of masculine and feminine within our consciousness, and at this time of year you can find value in noticing how they are working together. Those two principles must join within you for any creation to come to fruition. Honor how they both work, and notice what they want to fertilize with their combined energy.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Bask in the beauty of this point of the seasonal cycle. Enjoy being outside, and give thanks to the marriage of Earth and Solar Fire, which bring us these gifts. Connect to the flowers and fairy folk in this window.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Personal Creation Ideas to Work With May Day/Beltane</span></strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Honor the Goddess Flora and the flower realm. Create a May Basket of flowers to give to some one in need of care. Wear flowers in your hair or decorate your home with them. Plant flowers in your garden.</li>
<li>Honor the union of the masculine and feminine principles. Take time to internally connect with each of them through journaling, then ask what they want you to know.  Is there something they are choosing to bring forth?</li>
<li>Ceremonially dress in bright colors and patterns and honor the abundant beauty of the season.</li>
<li>Energize your money or wealth by giving it attention. Create a financial plan. Start tracking all your income.</li>
<li>Feel the fullness of gratitude for all you have and the abundance of Mother Earth.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Professional or Business Ideas for Working With May Day/Beltane</strong></span></p>
<ul>
<li>Bring flowers into your office. Beautify your work space.</li>
<li>Update your image and wardrobe.</li>
<li>Create a new business financial plan for the rest of the year.</li>
<li>Energize how much you want flowing into your business.</li>
<li>Pay attention to ideas for financial growth during this window and act on the best ones.</li>
<li>Be grateful for all the blessings and financial flow you have received.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you have the Elemental Forces of Creation Oracle you may want to draw cards for additional guidance from each element. If you don&#8217;t yet have one you can simply connect to each element and journal with it.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Elemental Journaling: Take the time to listen to each element and their message to you for fertility for the active growing season.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Give thanks to <span style="color: #008000;"><strong>Earth</strong></span> and ask “What do my finances and creations need at this time from you to flourish?”<br />
Give thanks to <span style="color: #008080;"><strong>Water</strong> </span>and ask “What do my finances and creations need at this time from you to flourish?”<br />
Give thanks to <span style="color: #0000ff;"><strong>Air</strong></span> and ask “What do my finances and creations need at this time from you to flourish?”<br />
Give thanks to <span style="color: #ff0000;"><strong>Fire</strong></span> and ask “What do my finances and creations need at this time from you to flourish?”<br />
Give thanks to <strong><span style="color: #800080;">Spirit</span></strong> and ask “What do my finances and creations need at this time from you to flourish?”</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Now ask all of the elements and Spirit together for a unified creation message for your creations to flourish.</p>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong> </strong></span></p>
<div id="attachment_6009" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 208px"><strong><strong><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/mooncycle.jpg"><img class="size-full wp-image-6009" title="mooncycle" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/04/mooncycle.jpg" alt="" width="198" height="150" /></a></strong></strong><p class="wp-caption-text">Moon Cycle</p></div>
<p><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>NEW MOON IN TAURUS:</strong></span></p>
<p><strong> </strong><span style="color: #000000;">Pacific Time Exact May 2, 2011 11:51 PM Window May 1-3</span></p>
<p><span style="color: #000000;">Eastern Time Exact May 3, 2011 2:51 AM Window May 2-4</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">New  Moon: With each new moon, the moon and the sun line up together in the  same sign. This creates a powerful opportunity to use their combined  energy toward your creation goals. Like an arrow pointed toward its  target, the sun and moon create a favorable energetic window that helps  you aim your energy effectively toward your objectives.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This  potent timing only works if you use it consciously. The aligned sun and  moon can add strong valuable energy to your creations with as little as  15 minutes of time during each window of opportunity.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The three-day window for each new moon extends from the day before the  new moon through the day after the exact point. Your conscious awareness  focused during this time directs the energy of creation to assist you  in unseen and previously unknown ways.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Taurus, an Earth sign, </strong></span>creates the second astrological gate of awareness, teaching the value of enjoying the earthly realm of matter. It delights in all that looks beautiful, tastes delicious, and feels pleasurable. It loves receiving all the exquisite things and gratifications the physical realm offers.  It also knows how to take solid steps to attain its desire for possessions, wealth, and security. It connects to the Divine when it savors and enjoys intimacy through the body and senses. Loyal, dependable, Taurus adores romance and love.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Taurus New Moon</strong></span><br />
Beautify your home, garden, body, and wardrobe. Enjoy earthly and bodily pleasures. Develop patience. Create grounded goals and strategies. Develop wealth-growing skills. Manage finances. Care for your body. Develop dependability. Relax and enjoy life. Create romance and express love.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This new moon is a great time to anchor your solid grounded plan for the year ahead! What steps need to be taken now in order to have a successful harvest in 6 months? All Earth new moons are useful for solid grounded steps toward your goals.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Personal Action Suggestions:</span></strong></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li> Appreciate your body and give it what it needs to thrive&#8211; good food, exercise, touch, and some fresh air.</li>
<li>Make a date to spend time in nature by gardening, going for a walk, or taking a nap outside. Give thanks to the element of Earth as you walk.  Appreciate her gifts.</li>
<li>Freshen your home with some spring-cleaning and include appreciation, prayers, gratitude, and intention, then put flowers everywhere you can.</li>
<li>Freshen your wardrobe by ceremonially cleaning out your closet and releasing what you no longer need.</li>
<li>Create more beauty in your home, office, garden, and personal care.</li>
<li>Ceremonially make a romantic, lovely, and delicious meal.  As you eat, appreciate every morsel and give gratitude for all the abundance you have in your life.</li>
<li>Give thanks for all the bounty and beauty in your life.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Business/Professional Action Suggestions:</strong></span></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li> Open to receive greater abundance in your business, and be grateful for your current blessings.</li>
<li>Create a list of anything else you need to come into place for a strong business foundation, and take solid steps toward building that foundation.</li>
<li>Evaluate your business management systems.  Are there areas to strengthen?</li>
<li>Either review or create your business financial goals, expenses, income, and investments.</li>
<li>Develop new strategies for step-by-step business growth.</li>
<li>Appreciate each of the pieces you have already implemented in the last months and the last year in your business or career.</li>
<li>Give thanks.</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color: #800000;"><strong>Suggestions for New Moon Work:</strong></span><br />
If you only have 15 minutes: Read through this information. Center yourself by aligning with gratitude for your current blessings. Determine where you want to focus your energy for grounded work and step-by-step planning during this month, especially focusing on the most important area. Create a location to keep your creational tracking, a dedicated notebook or file on your computer. Log your intention and date. Give thanks.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you have an hour: Read through this information. Determine where you want to focus your energy for grounded work and step-by-step planning during this month, especially focusing on the most important area. Center yourself by aligning with gratitude for your current blessings. Begin a creation journal or add to the one you have. A creation journal is a blank book with no lines on the pages (art sketch books work great). Put nothing in this book except your creations. Write only what you want to see come into being. Write your intention, and date, then cut and glue images and words from magazines, etc. that enliven your intention. Draw Elemental Forces of Creation Oracle Earth cards, while asking Earth for life guidance. Reflect and journal on the messages of the cards. Give thanks. <a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/creation-journaling/" target="_blank"><strong>See the presentation on creation journaling.</strong></a></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you have a couple of hours: Begin with the instructions from the hour section then add dancing to activate your intentions and/or create a personal ceremony with your intentions. For deeper personal ceremonial instructions refer to the book by Lisa Michaels, Natural Rhythms™  ~ Connect the Creational Dance of Your Life to the Pulse of the Universe, pages 213-228. Give thanks.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong><span style="color: #800000;">Earth Reminders:</span></strong></p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li> Earth teachings move in cycles. Honor the phase each part of your life is in.</li>
<li>Take the appropriate time for things to grow, develop, strengthen, and ripen. When things have reached their peak, they begin to transform. Things in your life may be in the seedling stage, or growing, ripening for harvest, or ready to transform. Apply the appropriate energy to the phase things are in.</li>
<li>Abundance and fertility are fundamental to Earth’s teachings and often take time to develop fully.</li>
<li>Things on the Earth plane need tending. Your children, finances, home, body, garden, and all other “matter” in your life need attention and tending in order for them to grow and flourish.</li>
<li>Apply patience and care to things growing in the earth realm.</li>
<li>Gratitude is the soul quality developed with Earth. It is a powerful energy from which to attract greater abundance.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Imblok.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-4646" title="Imblok" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2011/01/Imblok-211x300.jpg" alt="" width="211" height="300" /></a>The Elemental Forces of Creation (Earth, Water, Air, Fire, and Spirit) have the capacity to help you grow anything you focus on creating. Interestingly enough nature&#8217;s growing principals, your personal elemental powers, as well as the inner tools and skills you need to apply with each element are basically the same no matter what you are growing.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Nature grows and expresses in rhythms and cycles. Some cycles are short say a day, others maybe weekly, monthly, yearly, or over lifetimes. Creation flows in cycles as well. Most often in the same pattern as the growing cycle, from getting the seed of an idea, to it being a tender shoot as it comes into the world of form, through its growing then harvest time, and into the cycle of completion and decline.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Right now economic stability and prosperity represents the growing focus of many people. And because of the disconnection from nature&#8217;s wisdom often people forget that cycles impact what they are growing economically. Learning to tune into the rhythmic cycle of nature and the elemental forces can assist you tremendously in getting back on track and effectively bringing in your creations.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><span id="more-4963"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">These cycles of varying lengths affect collective and personal creations. Each cycle begins, grows, produces, and then transforms into something else in order to begin again. Cycles can happen within a larger cycle for example within the larger  cycle of the formation of the stock market through its existence there have  had numerous cycles of increase and decrease within multiple markets.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The same rhythmic relationship applies to your life, your business, your leadership, and to your creations. You need to be able to both actively direct your creation energy from a powerful internal position and also learn to receive and respond to external events that are beyond your control, from a clear inner place of grace, love, and compassion. Developing a respectful understanding of this natural cycle will help you to effectively work with each phase.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The impulse of creation, the energy for things, systems, and ways of life moves through the creative expanding phase and when this phase runs out of energy the decline and dying off portion of the cycle begins the transformation into something else. Our collective experience teaches us this repeatedly.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">We have example after example &#8212; from the rise and fall of the Roman Empire, to the transformation of the horse and buggy days to the time of the automobile, and now the rise of technology. Just as one way of life constantly transforms into another, reflecting the deep and constant change of nature, this same type of change also affects the flow of creation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As you experience the seasonal cycle of the sun and the movement of the moon pulling on the tides, you also experience an individual and collective ebb and flow of economics and prosperous personal and business systems. The length of a prosperous cycle depends on the ability of those working with the energy to keep it growing, continuing to build, developing and strengthening, responding to change, and ultimately creating a sustainable system that nourishes itself.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Once a system or way of life, is no longer sustainable and full of life force energy, it begins the deterioration portion of the cycle. If a decline is noticed in time, the possibility for renewal exists. If the system can be re-energized and creatively nourished then growing expanding phase has the potential to effectively flow once again. If not, the transformational phase will begin moving toward decline and eventual end.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The energy of any system cannot be drained over time and continue to thrive. In order to experience abundance and prosperity things, people, nations, environments, and economic systems must be feed and nourished with the energy of creation. Personally when the energy of anything in your life moves into the declining phase you can evaluate the possibility of nourishing replenishment. By honoring what is ready to be released and appropriately focusing your energy on creating the next phase you can create an effective and smooth transition. Times of change bring the greatest possibility for growth and transformation when you allow yourself to apply your creativity and capacity for innovation.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">It is important to ask yourself if you are responding to the changing economic cycles. Are you allowing yourself to release  old energies and what no longer works and move into what is new and growing?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you are interested in working at a deeper level with this subject I am facilitating a class on <em><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/elementally-clearing-your-money-matrix-and-activating-organic-wealth-creation-consciousness/" target="_blank">Elementally Clearing Your Money Matrix and Activating Your Wealth Creation Consciousness</a>.</em> The class assists you in clearing and integrating an element a month and even if you miss a class live it is very easy to work with the replay.</p>
<blockquote><p>Here is what a some of the participants said about the first class:<br />
&#8220;Lisa I am brand new to working with you and found the Organic Wealth Creation Consciousness class to be very helpful. The movement portion  was especially powerful  in revealing areas of constriction regarding money and wealth.  Your  teaching was clear and I&#8217;m excited about being free for expansion and  putting my &#8220;earth&#8221; skills into action!  The session was packed with  information.  I will want to replay it a few times to make sure I make  maximum use of the teaching.&#8221; Jane</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">&#8220;I could feel myself clearing and being energized. I can tell I&#8217;m on my way to new way of being and living in re: to my right to receive money and wealth..and to feel wealthy and abundant&#8230;and therefore act accordingly from my heart.  I&#8217;ve got tools and practices now to integrate and keep it energized within me. Tonight&#8217;s program was amazing I&#8217;ve never experience or read about anything like this.   I tell ya&#8230; it&#8217;s no hype&#8230; it&#8217;s the real deal&#8230;&#8221; Cheryl</p>
</blockquote>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Also, if you want more inspirational support from the elements read the article series on <a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/earth/abundance-earth-elements/moving-from-financial-fear-to-growing-conscious-abundance/" target="_blank">Moving from Financial Fear to Conscious Abundance</a>.

<div id="attachment_4404" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/P1010072_2.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4404" title="OLYMPUS DIGITAL CAMERA" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/P1010072_2-300x266.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="266" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Spirit - Apply Your Power of Choice</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">When it comes to creating anything, including abundance, Spirit provides the inner guidance and direction to bring your goals, dreams, and desires into reality. Spirit helps you connect to the creative spark of your unique essence urging you to the next level of personal development.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In order to creatively grow, Spirit gives you the gift of choice. With this gift, you have the power to choose your perceptions, how you interact with your feelings, others, your finances, and what actions you are going to take. Then, at any time, you have the power to choose something different.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">This sounds like such a simple power, yet it is profound. Choice directs the powers of creation. Each time you choose something &#8212; what you will eat, wear, think, do, not do, express, feel, spend, save, or where you will live, work, and play &#8212; you design and define yourself and your life. This power of choice gives you the ability to create your life and then change when appropriate.<br />
<span id="more-4403"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Even in circumstances when your choices seem very limited, you still have the ability to choose your response to the situation. When you listen, Spirit will help guide you toward your most effective choices.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You can connect with Spirit (just as with the other Elements) by sitting quietly and asking for connection and guidance.  Spirit is waiting for you to just “show up”.  Once you make that choice, Spirit and the elements work with you to create and manifest your desires.</p>
<ul style="text-align: justify;">
<li>Air &#8211; Get a Clear Vision and Stay Focused</li>
<li>Earth &#8211; Ground Your Plan with Gratitude</li>
<li>Water &#8211; Flow Clear, Clean, &amp; Current Financial Feelings</li>
<li>Fire &#8211; Take Transformative Action</li>
<li>Spirit &#8211; Apply Your Power of Choice</li>
</ul>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Working with Spirit and the Elements creates magic in any area of your life. Connect today and start creating conscious abundance!</p>

<div id="attachment_4399" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/IMG_01311.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4399" title="IMG_0131" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/IMG_01311-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Fire - Take Transformative Action</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Moving from financial fear to creating conscious abundance with Fire requires embracing new actions and letting go of old ones. Stepping into a new phase of anything requires letting go of your old familiar previous ways of functioning. Like the snake shedding its skin, you need to release what no longer serves you so you have room to grow and move forward. Letting go feels scary, which explains why people often want to know with certainty what is coming next and how it is going to fully play out before they are willing to release what is known. Yet the transformational process of change rarely works that way.<br />
<span id="more-4398"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Fire is a transformational element, changing one from into another. Often after releasing the old, you experience a period of not knowing before the new is born from the ashes. Honoring the transformational phase of a process requires trust and letting go; it is just the first stage. You have to practice and learn trust. Like the trapeze artist suspended high in the air releasing one bar, knowing the other will arrive just in time to grab hold, and swing into the next movement.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">One of the ways Fire helps you transform is through the power of action. Putting your previously-explored emotional shifts, intention, and specific plan into practice are powerfully transformative actions. These actions create a lot of energy that keep you moving in the direction you desire: creating a strong financial future. Simultaneously, they increase your trust, so that your next movement will be towards your goals, which enhances Fire’s action energy.  Then, the cycle continues.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Studies have shown that there is a direct correlation to mental health and the feeling of control each of us has on our lives.  The more control we have, the better our mental health.  The less control we feel, the poorer our mental health. So taking action can transform your current situation, strengthen your mental well-being, and propel you toward your financial goals.  Today take a walk or dance a bit and after moving ask Fire what actions you need to take right now to transform to create abundance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tomorrow the final post in this series&#8230;Spirit helps you apply your power of choice.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div id="attachment_4392" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/IMG_0215.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4392" title="IMG_0215" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/IMG_0215-300x225.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="225" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Flow Clear, Clean, &amp; Current Financial Feelings</p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The third Element to bring into your process around creating abundance is Water.  Throughout your life, Water develops your emotional capacity.  You start learning about feelings from the emotional climate of your family, caretakers, and those you grew up around. If you want to grow beyond your current emotional dynamic around money, you need to become more conscious and aware of what you are feeling in any moment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You may have grown up in an environment that held certain beliefs about finances, worth, and value.  What are those beliefs?  Dive deeply into these highly emotional concepts to search what might be holding you back.  Your emotions are powerful forces that can also include dangerous undertows that pull you back into old beliefs and deep conditioning regardless of your conscious intentions.<br />
<span id="more-4391"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">You can start increasing your emotional awareness by noticing what part of your consciousness is responding or reacting to money.  An emotional reaction is when you allow your emotions to be released before you give yourself time to choose your response.  For example, if you grew up in a miserly home surrounded by a fear of lack, your first “gut” reaction to buying an item may be an instant “No!”  This undertow reaction may be about not being able to afford the item, or it could be about you not being worth the cost.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Conversely, if you grew up in an environment where money matters were treated irresponsibly, it might be too easy to purchase items without concern of consequences.  Credit cards make it very easy to think about a purchase with a “tomorrow is another day” postponement of payment, or  you may find that you are buying items in an unconscious effort to fill a hole inside caused by a lack of some kind of personal fulfillment.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Take some time to journal about money. You might even hold money in one hand and write with the other.  Be sure to give yourself enough time and privacy to explore this subject deeply and completely.  This is not about punishing yourself:  it is about understanding where your emotions around money and finances originated. Once you know the emotion’s source, you can begin clearing it out.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As you clear and clean old reactive emotional responses from your emotional current, a force increases its flow through you: Water&#8217;s primary power of love.  Love is a powerful force which infuses everything it contacts, providing the nourishment needed for things to grow and flourish.  Nature abhors a vacuum, so you need to replace old emotional responses with intentional new ones: doubt making way for gratitude and fear transforming into love.</p>
<p>Tomorrow come back for Fire to share about taking transformative action.</p>

<div id="attachment_4387" class="wp-caption alignleft" style="width: 310px"><a href="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/machu-pichu.jpg"><img class="size-medium wp-image-4387" title="machu pichu" src="http://naturalrhythms.org/2.0/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/machu-pichu-300x203.jpg" alt="" width="300" height="203" /></a><p class="wp-caption-text">Now it is time to ground your plan with gratitude. </p></div>
<p style="text-align: justify;">After working with Air in moving from financial fear to creating conscious abundance, next, connect with Earth by bringing your vision into the physical realm. Simply writing down your vision for conscious abundance can create this anchoring. Be bold, specific, and realistic.  Numerous studies have shown that when you write down your goals, you have a 90% higher chance of attaining them.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Earth will help you put structure and form to your vision.  She reminds you that it takes step-by-step discipline to bring an idea or vision into being. Earth teaches you to lay one brick at a time, take one step then the next, write the first chapter and then the second, and work from the foundation up to complete anything in the physical realm. Even though the other elements assist you in accelerating your accomplishments, when it comes to anchoring an idea on the earthly realm, it happens in solid steps and stages.<br />
<span id="more-4386"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Earth also includes the work of planning, organizing, and tending.  Have you noticed that when your physical world (home, office, car, etc.) is disorganized and untended your inner world reflects the same sense of chaos and discord?  Creating order in your physical environment then developing a organized plan will help you achieve your vision.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">If you have a hard time outlining your plan, 20 minutes of quiet connection with Earth (whether sitting, standing, or walking outside) can help you ground and create a down-to-earth plan. Likewise, you can ask Earth if there are areas of life where you need to become more grounded, then listen for her reply internally. Be mindful to thank her for her assistance.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The element of Earth responds immediately to gratitude. When you are grateful for all you have been given and treat those gifts with respect, you create an internal quality of grace. The grace of gratitude allows you to more easily bring your creative gifts into form and anchor them fully on Earth. When you approach life from a space of gratitude, the energy around you lines up to help you fulfill your desires.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Tomorrow Water will share with you how to flow clear, clean, and current financial feelings.</p>

<p style="text-align: justify;">We live in a world of uncertainty and dramatic change today.  If we pay attention to the media, there is little good news out there, and much of that is buried under predictions of doom and gloom.  And while keeping up with current events may be important, it can also cause your fear to grow.  No one works at their best if their motivation is rooted in fear.  In order to reach our true potential, we must feel strong, uplifted, and confident.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The economy is one of the difficulties we deal with on a daily basis. We hear about people losing their savings, their jobs, their homes, their security. Retirees are returning to work and younger people are not able to find jobs. None of us wants to lose what we have worked for. And the fears that are prevalent in our world don’t give us any comfort or hope. However, you can impact your experience and let the elements support your abundance.<br />
<span id="more-4375"></span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Creating Security</strong><br />
It is up to you to personally work through any fears you may have about money, financial stability or security. Choosing to focus on abundance while the world around you energizes fear may leave you feeling like you are “swimming upstream.” Creating abundance success requires planning, making conscious choices, clearing old feelings, taking action, and staying focused.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Remember &#8212; what you focus on grows.  Do you want to grow your fear of lack of money or your vision of abundance?  Focusing on the financial picture you choose to create will ensure that you aren’t energizing your fears and will help you know what actions you need to take.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">The creation energies of Nature (Earth, Water, Air, Fire, &amp; Spirit) all contribute their unique energy to anything you manifest. Knowing how to work with each element is vital to your success. The elemental forces can support you to bring your desires into form, both personally and professionally. If you are ready to clear your fears about finances and consciously create abundance, the elements can help you realize your dreams.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"><strong>Air &#8211; Get a Clear Vision and Stay Focused</strong><br />
Air governs the mental realm, your consciousness, and your ability to envision your life. Just as you need clean air to breathe, you need a clean mental realm that can direct your intent and help you maintain a powerful perspective from which to vision your life.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">In relation to the other elements, Air moves fast and is not easily contained. Mental chatter easily clutters up your mind. You need your mental realm free from worry and negative thought for it to function at its optimal capacity. Are there old thoughts or beliefs that are stirring up your financial fear?</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">As you release that old mental clutter and begin to consciously create abundance you need to find clarity about what it is you really want. Take some time to think through this. What do you really want?  Be specific.  See it in your mind’s eye.  When you create a vision, you begin creating from your ideas and pictures of what you choose your world to be like.  The pictures you hold start drawing energy to them.  If you want to bring your highest good into manifested or created form, it is critical that your pictures be of the highest possible outcome.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Commit to it. For your intentions to come into form, you need commitment. It is the energy that helps you stay with something through until completion. It works hand in hand with Air’s power of focus.  If you are committed to your intention, focus helps you realign when you get off track.  Focus and commitment help you direct your attention toward your desires until they come into form.</p>
