The overwhelming success of last year’s Women’s March on Washington demonstrated the rise of the feminine energy in the collective unconscious of humanity. Wisdom Rising. According to Lama Tsultrim Allione, the suppression of the sacred feminine and the loss of feminine qualities are urgent psychological

and ecological issues in modern society, and it is only by empowering the sacred feminine and listening to the earth as she tries to communicate with us that we will heal ourselves and the planet. Lama Tsultrim Allione is a celebrated Buddhist Teacher and Spiritual Activist and the founder and resident Lama of Tara Mandala Retreat Centre in Colorado. She is the author of “Women of Wisdom, “the National Bestseller “Feeding Your Demons – Ancient Wisdom for Resolving Inner Conflict,” which is now translated into twenty languages, and “Wisdom Rising – Journey into the Mandala of the Empowered Feminine,” which provides a method for inner transformation and empowerment into wisdom and fierce compassion for all of us - women and men - who want to be a part of the rising awareness and return of the sacred feminine. Sandra Sedgbeer: Your life journey has been a far from ordinary one. You were born in New England to an academic publishing family. You traveled
to India in your late teens and, in 1970 at the age of just 22, you were ordained as the first American Buddhist Nun. You were also recognized as the reincarnation of a renowned 11th century Tibetan Yogini and became one of only a few female Lamas in the world today. What first attracted you to Tibet and Buddhism? Lama Tsultrim Allione: I think it was really the mandala that drew me in. I met the mandala on a book cover when I was about 15 years old. My Grandparents lived in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and I was in Harvard Square and wandering around and went into a Bookstore and there, on a table in front of me was this book by Carl Jung with a mandala on the cover. Mandalas are a round, circular shape divided into four quadrants in the center, and the Tibetan mandalas, which are quite elaborate are meditation tools. I didn’t know any of that at the time, and I just looked at this Tibetan mandala on the cover of the book. It was as though I traveled into the mandala Omtimes.com
Is Homeopathy appropriate for children? By OMTimes
Homeopathy for children is a therapy derived from alternative medicine. It is a practice that believes in administering minimal Omtimes.com
amounts of medication, which allows the body to educate itself so that activates its immune system, and, in this way, it helps the body to heal by itself. Homeopathy is an alternative medicine practice that uses drugs in low doses, but those do not have active chemical components. Homeopathy components tend to produce effects similar to the symptoms of the disease that one wishes to combat, which help to activate the natural metabolic action of the body. Homeopathy for children is considered as one of the popular alternate medical practice, consists of the use of a component called mother dye, which must be diluted in water. The more it is diluted, the better the results. The father of homeopathy,
Christian Friedrich Samuel Hahnemann, said the disease arises due to a transformation of the individual’s energetic core. The Homeopathy healing method is responsible for combating the patient’s infections, which develops precise and specific characteristics of his illness. The side effects and collateral damage produced by traditional medicines in children’s bodies and infants have led parents to resort to a second medical opinion, and to consider alternative therapeutical venues such as homeopathy to treat different diseases at the pediatric level, from episodes of asthma, diarrhea, mood swings to chronic allergies.

His results were amazing. In 1974 the Victorian Government did a survey of alternative health practitioners, 85% of the 13,000+ sessions Mr. Bowen performed were completely resolved. Mr. Bowen allowed a few men to observe him while treating people. One of those men, Oswald (Ossie) Rentsch, took on the task of making Tom Bowen’s work known around the world. Today, Bowenwork is taught in over 30 countries.
Can the body be stimulated to heal itself? Bowen Practitioners believe it can. Bowenwork or Bowen Therapy is a soft tissue muscle relaxation technique that resets tension patterns around the body promoting relaxation and most importantly, healing.
Bowenwork was started in the 1950s in Geelong, Victoria, Australia by the late Thomas Bowen. He used a unique set of “moves” on different muscles and muscle groups around the body to reset tension patterns, allowing the body to heal itself
COSMIC SPIRITUALITY By Judy Carroll
My name is Judy Carrol. In 1952 I incarnated on Earth as part of a universal “rescue corps” to serve as an ambassador between two planetary cultures – Humans Omtimes.com
of Earth and Zeta Greys. I operate through a “blended soul” consciousness that enables me to work in both human cultures, and act as a go-between to assist deeper understanding through communication. I wrote about my journey as a Zeta Grey on Earth in The Zeta Message: Connecting All Beings in Oneness, and in Human by Day, Zeta by Night. I’ve done many interviews and questions such as Do the ETs believe in God? and Is spirituality acknowledged by other planetary cultures? are often asked. According to my understanding—and I’ve studied this quite a lot— all higher evolved universal cultures experience life from a spiritual rather than a religious perspective. What does it mean to live life from a spiritual rather than a religious perspective? The primary difference is that spirituality is a state of consciousness, not dependent upon religious dogma or an intermediary priesthood
or another go-between. Religion was initially introduced on Planet Earth to provide clear and firm guidelines to assist the young and newly created Earthhuman species in developing in the right direction, which is why religions have specific rules or commandments. These rules are designed to teach self-discipline and are often culturally, rather than spiritually, based. These rules were good, and they still are for many Earth humans. Unfortunately, religion has been misused and badly exploited over the millennia by the Repterran Controllers. A religion can be a belief system based on dogma, with an intermediary priesthood and set rituals. Spirituality is a more personalized state of consciousness. The two can go together, but not necessarily. A person can be religious without being spiritual, and a person can be spiritual without being religious. Plus, a person can be both religious and

The Secret of Mantra Chanting By indiadivine.org
Mantras – Sound vibrations that permeate every cell of your being and allow your mind to dissolve and repose. But what are they? What do they mean? Where did they come from? What are the many questions surrounding these ancient syllables?
Omtimes.com
Speaking about Mantras is the revelation of ancient secrets that have been kept sacred from several ages, secrets that continue to benefit humanity irrespective of its circumstances. What are the Mantras? Mantras are impulses or rhythms of the consciousness. They create vibrations in the spirit. Their effects, influence, method, and mode of working are all a mystery. The mantra is that which saves you from repetitiveness. A repetitive thought is a worry. Mantras help to free you from your worries. Often, we wonder why we chant some sounds without understanding their meanings? Can something beyond our understanding help us? The meaning of every mantra is infinity. It is a sound vibration beyond the cognition of the mind. When the mind is unable to cognize, it simply dissolves and moves into a meditative space. How Mantras Affect the Mind? The mantra is like a seed. Every
seed has the potential to become a tree. Similarly, these sound vibrations contain all the possibilities of creation. Some mantras are in the seed form, called the bija mantras. Others are fully expressed, i.e., the fruit of the mantra is also expressed, such as the Gayatri mantra. Mantras are a secret. That which is kept a secret alert the sub-conscious mind. The mantras work at the level of the consciousness. When we want a seed to sprout, it needs to be sewn into the soil, hidden, a secret. If it is simply thrown around, birds may eat them up. We can read and learn about mantras and their uses from books and the internet, but that will only satisfy the intellect and not translate into experience. Mantra and Meditation When we chant the mantras or listen to them, we get purity of mind and word. This prepares us for meditation. As a result of the sound vibrations, different patterns of the mind re-arrange themselves to become tranquil. Agitation is reduced, helping us to turn inward. For instance,

Is Your Child an Indigo Child? By OMTimes
How do I know if my child is an indigo child? It is difficult to say whether a child is an indigo or not since this term lacks anextensive scientific basis. Omtimes.com
It is a concept that arose from a cognitive argument that began in the early eighties. It is believed that these children are the product of intellectual and spiritual evolution, reflected in patterns of behavior different from the ordinary children until that moment. Psychically, people call Indigo children the ones that present hues of the indigo color around their auras. Not all parents even wonder if their child is indigo because it is a theory that was not widespread enough among the various sectors of society. It is possible that we have a child with the characteristics of indigo, but we learn to deal without it becoming a more significant problem. In fact, it is not obligatory for us to know about this ‘condition” because, whether or not our child is an indigo child, the important thing is to raise
them with love and kindness. That way, only those who have somehow had contact with the term ask themselves if there are any indigo children in their family. You are likely to begin to relate the characteristics of these extraordinary beings to people we know and even identify with. How to spot an indigo child? “Have no fear, most of the Indigo children that are struggling are the children that have had a very difficult time trying to live up to societies Indigo myth that developed around them” –Tasha Heart Accordingly, not all children who have indigo characteristics are really indigo children. We often confuse these characteristics with those that originate

of connected and familiar’s souls, such as Twin souls and even twin flames. It is not a secret to say that many connected souls are living very different lives and may also have a different life mission during their present incarnation on Earth. They are souls who meet in a moment and come to share with a short fragment of time, months or even unforgettable years. However, like a house of cards, everything can be eventually destroyed by the wind. If You both were, in your opinion, the perfect couple, but for strange reasons, everything was lost, maybe you met on the same platform of life, but with passages to different life destinations. Sometimes, just to love alone is not enough to sustain a genuine relationship, even if the other
soul is the spiritual reflection of yours. Sometimes there is an irreconcilable distortion and high costs, almost impossible to maintain. There are impossible loves that make us live perfect fragments, in a brief and intense, but that from the beginning already come with an expiration date. The importance of taking risks and having experiences in life A life without risk is an unlived life. You may know from the outset that some experiences can come with a high cost, be it emotional or financial; you may also be aware that getting out of your comfort zone, of what is acknowledged and safe, will bring about the uncertainty of “not knowing� and the risk of committing not just one, but several errors.

Three Ways to Fulfill the Beautiful Purpose of All Your Relationships By Guy Finley
All of our relationships, particularly with those we love, exist for a single beautiful purpose that expresses itself in two different ways. First, our partner – whether spouse,

that “special” someone, or even a would-be companion – is in our life to help us grow; to provide just the conditions we need to become that better, truer person that they see in us, just waiting to be brought forth. But the other and equally important half of this same purpose and promise – without which the first part can’t be realized – is as follows: our partner is also there in our life to help us see everything in us that now stands in the way of our realizing this same higher possibility.
behavior that literally drives you up a wall?
Here are three ways to use difficult situations with your partner to help you fulfill the true purpose of your relationships.
The next time you want to jump on your partner for a misstep, try this: instead of unconsciously remembering all the reasons you have for opposing them in that moment, do your level best to remember where and how you have missed the mark in a similar way. Consciously choosing to recollect your similarity with your partner’s character not only disarms the part of you about to pounce upon it, but this level of self-honesty also dispels the illusion of difference imagined between the two of you, replacing it with a compassionate consideration born of wisdom and love.

“normal,” so it can be difficult to recognize when things are happening that shouldn’t be. And even when we do realize that bad things have happened to us, we may not see that we’ve been traumatized, or that this trauma has affected different aspects of our personal or professional lives. One of the ways the consequences of childhood trauma can be seen is in how people interact with each other in the workplace. In the workplace, there are different types of relationships that we enter into. There’s the relationship between boss and employee, or the relationship between two or more colleagues. If you’re someone who constantly finds yourself in conflict with your supervisors, your employees and/or your colleagues, you might want to consider the possibility that you have childhood trauma. This trauma can take
many forms, including mistreatment, exploitation, abuse, or a lack of approval or love — and it can adversely affect how individuals interact with other people at work. Some can be overly helpful people-pleasers, or doormats who are too tolerant of disrespect. Others can be self-sacrificing workaholics who end up burnt out or, if severely traumatized, can be filled with so much old rage toward their abusers that they take out this anger on their supervisors and/or colleagues today. The more they try to please, the more these people are disrespected, and even held in contempt by the other people at their workplace. Lack of love or approval Some people with childhood trauma is people-pleasers, constantly care-taking and doing too much for others.

THE SCREWS ARE COMING LOOSE THAT BIND THE SOUL OF HUMANITY by Marguerite Dar Boggia
The good news is that humanity is responding to the energies of the Cosmos through the constellations and especially through the planets, Uranus and Pluto.

We are told that humanity is the disciple, who must endure Omtimes.com
tests and trials to reach the mountaintop of mastership. The shackles of arrogance, selfishness, self-interest, selfimportance, sense of superiority and pride are the burdens that weigh it down on its climb to the temporary high plateau of goodwill and freedom. Even though some unwise leaders incite discord, each generation rejects the bigotry
of race, religion, and creed. They perceive the corruption of its leaders and the NO CHOICE of candidates. They are weary of wars, new deadly particle beam missiles, drones, and violence. War may be good for the military-industrial complex, but it devastates not only the health and possible destruction of the planet but the health of humanity. Hatred is energy. It creates a miasma on the invisible etheric dimensions, which affect the immune system. The madness of desire for Global Domination for One World to control humanity will defeat its own pursuits. The Laws of the Cosmos cannot be dismissed or prevented. Henry Kissinger said whoever controls the media controls the people. Whoever controls the money, controls the world.1 This is destined to change! David Wilcock in his book: The Source Field Investigations writes that ancient legends have forecasted problems in government and society including wars, famines, corruption, and changes in the earth, but after a messianic figure appears, the forces of materialism are defeated and
“the Krita (Golden) Age will begin again. And the stars and stellar conjunctions will become auspicious. And the planets, duly revolving in their orbits, will become exceedingly propitious. And all around, there will be prosperity and abundance and health and peace.� Hindu and Zoroastrian sages have forecasted a Golden Age for humanity.2 This is our destiny. Today the messianic figure mentioned in these ancient scriptures is now on earth working behind the scenes. He needs millions of people in every major city demonstrating on the streets for peace based on justice, goodwill, and freedom. I believe this will happen within the next twenty or fifteen years when the younger generation will demand change. Then the Cabal known as the Global Elite3 will acknowledge defeat. A new economic system will be put in place by the Masters, based on sharing the resources of the earth. The major banks and the Federal Reserve system will not be used. Each nation will give and will receive what it needs. Assisting the messianic figure, are our beneficent Brothers on Omtimes.com
Do you suffer from Cassandra Complex? By Humanity Healing

with spirit may one time, or another felt drawn to this ancient archetype. Cassandra’s complex draws the profile of someone who thinks they can predict the future but feels unable to change it. This curious phenomenon can torment those who suffer from it, making predictions in which others do not believe. In Greek mythology, Kassandra was one of the princesses of Troy, daughter of Priam and Hecuba. According to the legends, she was a beautiful woman who was blessed with the gift of seeing the future. However, this ability was accompanied by a curse: no one would believe her. Because of this, Cassandra could anticipate the outcome of many disastrous events, such as the acceptance of the famous
Greek horse by the Trojans. Cassandra’s family thought she was crazy and did not believe her crazy story about the Greeks’ intentions to attack the city. Of course, the more than famous story ended with the defeat of the Trojans and the destruction of their city. The versions of this mythic story may vary, and in some of them, Cassandra even becomes imprisoned for her madness. In short, Cassandra has always been shown as a woman that was never understood. Thus, the origins of the myth are in stories about a divine punishment that the god Apollo imposed on that woman. This punishment was because the god was rejected by Cassandra, so he retaliated with a gift of prophecy that would only bring her frustration and despair. Cassandra had served as a priestess of Apollo and taken a sacred

Change Unproductive Habits and Make Room For Greatness by Leigh Burton
Ready for a change? Everything we do is a form of habit. Some we like, some we don’t. To change an unproductive habit, we need to be honest about what caused it in the first place.
Omtimes.com
From the beginning of time, humans have been all about habits. Even though we don’t realize it, there is a habit in everything we do. There are only so many hours in a day, with so many things to do, and it all begins with the ringing of the alarm letting us know that the next portion of our journey has just started. Habits create comfort, like a morning routine, and understanding that the same route will take us to work. We stop at the grocery store on the way home and a perfect plan of rituals throughout the evening makes for a peaceful end to the day so that we can start all over again the next. There are the scheduled yoga classes throughout the week or the regular stops at the gym. Time with our friends and trips to our kids sporting events fill our calendar. If looking at a calendar, filled with notes of all the things we do and want to achieve, it’s easy to see a routine that for the most part feels good because it’s comfortable to know what’s expected of us. What’s missing in the calendar
of routine are the habits that we don’t like, the same ones that are unproductive. These are the parts of our days that we beat ourselves down the hardest. Whether it be skipping the visit at the gym, procrastinating about what needs to get done or, the dreadful customer calls that need to be made, it’s hard to accept as something that is ok. There are plenty of unproductive habits that we can use to judge ourselves as less than what we want to be. Including habits of alcohol, shopping, and not standing up for what we believe is right. The list is endless. When we witness others changing their unproductive ways we are inspired to do the same for ourselves but, some habits are harder to break than others. There is always the option to speak to an expert in the field of what the issue is and gain insight into what created the issue in the first place. Most often the answer is found in a look into our past, or into the environment that

now. The places, people and things that really matter are waiting for us every day as a gift. Oh, how the past can come creeping in just when you least expect it! Things you have processed, filed away and marked “lesson learned� have a way of invading the now you have been living in. Maybe others involved are still in a stage of evolution where a situation is concerned, and they have decided to test your resolve and patience. Sometimes the lessons are coming in fresh so you can see another perspective on the experience. Karma left still to be served for actions taken by both sides. If you let them, these events can disrupt your plans and peace of mind about having moved on. How do we continue to live
in the now and manifest the future while looking at the past as a wonderful library of knowledge? The key is the integration of Spirit with the knowledge and valuable information we have received since we’ve been here. The positive or negative outcome, we learned something. Remembering that even if we repeated foolish behaviors, letting ourselves and others down sometimes, we are still loved, needed and appreciated in the world. Forgiving ourselves can be the most difficult thing for most people to practice aside from forgiving others for their actions actively. When we are judged or treated unfairly by others, it is a good thing to acknowledge the place these actions originate from to look past the hurt. As

Why Practicing Conscious Living should be our Ecological duty. How Savings can help us understand our economy and our ecology. By Liane Buck
What savings have to do with ecology you might ask? At first glance numbers and respect for nature are not immediately connected, but in truth they are.
Omtimes.com
“The Holy Land is everywhere.” –Black Elk We should start using practices such as saving because we should start realizing that our earth’s resources are in fact limited. We are not referring only to the fossil fuels underground reserves, but other resources such as minerals, clean water, food, and energy sources and animal companions. There is no such a thing as a magical font that springs money and other resources at our volition. In fact, it is a great misunderstanding and somewhat an arrogant human outlook to regard this planet with all its resources and all its earthling, as being as part of mankind’s domains. We are just one more of the many species sharing the bountiful gifts given and shared by this earth. If we don’t step up as real caretakers of this planet, or part of earth crew, we are going only to be the witnesses of the destruction and mass extinction of many
present-day species, then we will be inheriting a world without weather control, a network of failing resources and a society in complete chaos. It is imperative that we develop a conservative “Saving Mentality” in a conscious lifestyle way of living only that way we can deaccelerate the rate of consumption of many goods and merchandise that are not vital for our existence. This simple action would create a ripple effect that would mean the difference between life and death of many species. Take as an example the insane production and usage of single-use plastic, these discarded and trashed plastics (such as straws) end up polluting our oceans, compromising the food source of many species and killing corals and other microbes. It is a karmic matter, i.e., cause and effect. “We have become, by the power of a glorious evolutionary accident called
