Gently Re-Emerging part 1

May 28, 2023 by Elaina Geltner

Re-emerging…..

Look what happened: a 2023 calendar showed up in my Studio! I am slowly emerging from the cave that I’ve been in for the last 3 years….and WHEW! The Light is so bright.

I’m venturing further out every week, and acclimating to the profound shifts that have occurred. 3 years is a long time to be in the cocoon. Gently re-emerging is the key.

Baby steps.

A Calendar with a few events.

Invitations to teach.

New people joining “Live @the Cosmic Tea Room.”

More 1 to 1 Sessions.

~~~~

I’m delighted.

I feel vulnerable.

I feel super-tuned-in to the energy.

It is such a relief.

And surprise, surprise! My inner critic had a couple things to say, but I re-routed him: “There’s even more light. Please find the openings that are #JustRight for me, my work, and my light, right now. Clear the path to me being of maximum service. This is the BEST way to keep me safe and on track”.

I’ll keep you posted and let you know how it’s going. Anything you’ve been missing that you’d like to see me offer? Just reply to this email or go to The Cosmic Tea Room FaceBook group and share. Would love to see you there!

RE-commit to Being You! HFBYS #28

December 14, 2022 by Elaina Geltner

Here it is…the time you’ve been waiting for…OR the time that has been waiting for you!

Here’s the opportunity to finally step into what you are here to do/be.

Those who measure the earth frequencies have noticed huge spikes as the creative energy (earth) meets the high frequency (cosmic) energy…creating an opportunity just for you!

Beltane (An Aspect of the Spirit of QuietStar) says: “Transformation can be awkward and stressful, but with guided support, it can be an uplifting and awesome experience.” As we feel into this energy, we are guided to share a meditation you might have encountered before. Gather your journal, find a quiet place and do your invocation or centering practice.

A Meditation from Beltane:

Imagine yourself in a beautiful sanctuary of your own choosing. It might be a place you have been, or it might be in another realm. Or a product of your imagination. Take a few moments to settle in.
Invite your HigherSelf, ascended masters, and all your inner parts to join you in a celebration of who you really are.
While gazing at the Glyph, imagine that you have all the tools and all the resources that you need. And just allow the scenario to unfold.
Let the answers come without judging or even understanding them:
- If I had all I needed, with no limitations or responsibilities, what would I do?
- What is the source that I am most connected to?
- What supports my unfolding?
- What is my secret desire?
- Who are my allies?
Allow yourself to see, feel, hear, or just know: How is it to be fully expressing yourself? How do you FEEL?

Note the way it feels to be you. Enjoy the expansion. Take some time in your journal to write, draw or collage. Use this as a template for who you are, to remind you to be YOU.

HigherSelf-Spirit Guides Course: Where did it come from? Part 2

January 29, 2021 by Elaina Geltner

Did you know that we created the first HigherSelf~Spirit Guides Course in Lanikai, Hawaii (Oahu) in 1990?

Here’s the short story from the previous blog:

In co-creation with Spirit, we came up with concepts, questions, meditations and exercises for the class. We were so delighted when they worked! People found a deep connection to their HigherSelf and were able to access guidance directly. Probably my favorite part was all the love we felt as we called in the HigherSelves of everyone in the group! The love was palpable ~ you could feel this circle of unconditional love surrounding the group. I could “see” the vibration in the room rising higher and higher. After the foundation was set with clear HigherSelf connections and the presence of the Angels, we invited in the Spirit Guides. I still remember the party I could see “them” having. They were so excited that “their humans” could now experience them directly!

As I re-read that blog from 2013, I find myself musing about another part of the origin story: I spent over 30 years hunting for a system that would work for me. I explored everything I could find: spiritual traditions, shamanism, channeling, and so much more. I found many paths to Spirit, healing and consciousness that resonated. I was blessed to gather tools, teaching and concepts that were truly amazing. But each “system” left me wondering when I would find one that encompassed all the levels of energy and consciousness that I experienced.

Alas, that never happened! In the early part of the 21st century, I began to receive downloads about a system that wanted to organize itself through me. The Guides showed me an umbrella, and told me my work was to assist those desiring to become “a clear and open channel for the Light”. Under this umbrella was a safe and sacred space for journeyers to cultivate their unique SoulPath Vibration™. First called SoulPath Alignment, the energy refined to become SoulPath Alchemy. In collaboration with the Spirit of QuietStar, we continue to grow and evolve this work dedicated to the highest good of all.

The 2021 update

Fast forward to 2021; 31 years later. We are teaching exclusively online, Barbara Steinberg is co-facilitating, and we’ve added one of my favorite components ever: CollageAlchemy™. I still consider this Course to be one of the greatest gifts I have been given to share. I am honored to be part of this process with every class that comes together. Each group is always so different! I can’t wait to see what the next one is like.

Exploring the Unknown, Part 1. (Hints for Being YourSelf #18)

by Barbara Steinberg, PhD, SoulPath Alchemy Facilitator

As a kid I was a history buff and always marveled at the adventures of the great oceanic explorers of the New World: Magellan, Balboa, Vasco de Gama, Columbus. If you recall, most people believed that the world was flat so if you sailed long enough and far enough, a ship and its crew would just drop off the planet!

To me, the eight to ten year old reader, these men were heroes. They prepared their vessel with provisions, but was it enough for the length of the voyage? Although there were not many tools for charting a voyage, they took what was available at the time: compass, a sextant, a telescope, a map of unknown accuracy, a general knowledge of the stars and how to use them for navigation. Were these tools sufficient for sailing into the unknown?

Often as we work with SoulPath Alchemy™ in the uncharted higher realms, I have feelings alternating between exhilaration or uneasiness. These must be the same feelings the heroic oceanic explorers experienced as they sailed away from dry land and into the unknown.

Ponder, journal, meditate #1:

Have you ever begun a project, preparing as best you could, but not being certain that you had everything you needed?
Do you get excited about new beginnings, about new creations?
Does not knowing the scope of a project or every detail of a process to reach completion make you feel uneasy?
How do you express or manage those opposing feelings?

Ponder, journal, meditate #2:

Can you place yourself on board a freshly readied ship, looking forward at the vast horizon, feeling the exhilaration they must have felt, knowing that they were on their way into a new adventure?
Can you imagine the uneasiness they must have sensed as the land behind them disappeared from their vision, not knowing when they might see land again?
Have you experienced this when you began a meditation without knowing the process or the destination?

What On Earth Am I Doing Here?!??! HFBYS #17

August 6, 2020 by Elaina Geltner

We continue to find ourselves in interesting times. This might feel a bit “out there”…but, believe it or not, you are here by design! You chose this on purpose. If you were attracted to the title of this article, your experience of the world might alternate between seeing a clear path open in front of you, and moaning “What was I thinking? I signed up for this?!” What On Earth Am I Doing Here?*!?*?! Do I really have a Soul Path?

Earth School is in session. Take a deep breath. Know that this is what you’ve trained for. For years. For lifetimes. In multiple dimensions. And, furthermore, you are up to the challenge.

Know that you aren’t alone. Not only do you have tons of other humans on the awakening journey with you, you also have help and support (and a cheering section) in the other realms.

**So here’s the good news: Perhaps it’s all good news!**

I offer you a question. Take a moment, get quiet, get centered and ask: “What on Earth must I be trying to teach myself with this situation (Person, challenge, delay in manifesting, world events, career)?” You’re going to have to step up your vibration and imagine that you have the perspective of your soul.

From this lofty place, you can begin to see, feel, and intuit what is really going on. Once you have discovered your answer, you can begin to use these powerful energies to propel you in the direction of your SoulPath.

Are you being called to have guidance and support to live the life you’ve always dreamed of?Join us in the Cosmic Tea Room and share your journey in a safe and sacred space! And invite your friends to join you there: https://www.facebook.com/groups/CosmicTeaRoom/

Smudging and Beyond: Multi-Cultural Approaches to Clearing and Attracting Energy

August 6, 2020 by Elaina Geltner

Smudging and Beyond: Multi-Cultural Approaches to
Clearing and Attracting Energy

by: Barbara F. Steinberg, PhD, a SoulPath Alchemy™ Facilitator

Intention

The intention of smudging is to cleanse, attract and/or bless. Most likely we are familiar with this ancient act being performed around someone’s personal energy field or inside a space that will be used for a group gathering.

This practice has been done for millennia, and it is most commonly performed by burning some kind of plant material. The choice of herb determines the intention of the ceremony. For example in the traditions of Native America, sage, a common herbal used for smudging, is said to remove negative energy. Sweet grass can follow to attract positive energy. Flicking the smoke with a feather or another sacred object can accelerate the process and intensify the effect on the energies.

The smoke from this fired plant material fills and purifies the environment. As it rises, it carries our wishes and intentions into the universe, connecting the higher realms with earth and humanity.

Beyond Smudge: Other materials

Other materials besides plants can be used for smudging. Sound is a particularly effective way to clean and clear energies. Singing bowls, a rattle or a drum all create a vibration of sound that can be applied to an energy field. As long as the intention is clearly set, a shift can occur.

Candles, light or even the pure energy that emanates from your hands can also be used when a situation calls for smudging, and other materials or instruments are lacking.

When we meet electronically, our intention is to create a sacred space around everyone who is involved in the group. It is helpful for you, if the leader is smudging his/her personal space, to set your own intention to extend this sacred space to wherever you are. You can also imagine that whatever is being used smudges you as well so the entire group can be involved in the smudging process.

The Power of the Pause in Mercury Retrograde

June 30, 2020 by Elaina Geltner

Phew! This particular Mercury Retrograde is a doozy! But there’s still time to use the power of the pause. Today I surrender! I’ve been trying to “just get one more thing done” and Yikes! It’s clear that I need a big pause me-self. So I’m going to. Will you join me??

Do you recognize this? I feel like I am letting go of lifetime patterns of pushing, forcing, anxiety.

I thought I was rid of “good-better-best, never let it rest”, perfection, scrambling to “stay ahead of it”. But somehow I find myself, once again, doing too much. World events have inspired me to get my work out to a larger audience. And I love what I do so much that I don’t even notice that I’m pushing too hard. Then Mercury Retrograde hits. And I hear “do nothing” for 3 weeks. It seems like a challenge, but I keep on doing “one more thing”. Well, this blog is the last “one more thing”. After this, I rest. And I invite you to join me in a bit of re-calibration!

And I promise the next blog will be “What to do in times of Rapid Transformation”. Cuz the first step is to pause.

Here are some affirmations that might ease the shift into the pause!

I choose and cultivate: grace, ease, flow, trust.
I align with Divine timing.
I turn all this over to the Universal Manager and wait till it’s my turn to take action, cuz it’s not right now.
I trust that there is enough time, energy, resources and brilliance to get it all done, in Divine Timing.
I allow myself to be fully supported body, mind and spirit.
I gather my energy back into my core column of light.
I set an intention of re-juvenation, re-calibration, reflection, re-plenishment. ♡AHHH! ♡

Would love to hear about YOUR version of “The Pause”. You can post in the Cosmic Tea Room (our safe and sacred FB space). If you’re not a member yet, just follow the link and we’ll open the door for you!

Apparently this Pause idea continues to call to me. You might like to read the blog below from 2 years ago. As I re-read it today, I realized how far I’ve come!
