Now is the Time!

 

"Now's the Time" by Bettina

Now is the time, my friends, for the Magic To Be ... again. Being the Giant YOU are and truly have always been. Will you step up and out? Out of wrongness? Out of judgment of you?

Magic is not just potions and spells. This is a very limited, very very tiny box of the Ease that Magical Being is. It has been twisted, distorted, used and abused... Magic is when we simply ask for something and it shows up. When we ask the whale for a last jump before we have to go pack up to catch a flight, and that amazing whale jumps... for our delight. THAT, my friends, is the magic of you the being. 

You ask and you receive. It has always been that way. You might have forgotten to ask. You might have asked for something that wasn't your smartest choice to ask for, and now it's the very thing that is limiting you. We created the limitations. We created the walls. We created our own box. We also created the resistance to it. Why, you wonder? Why creating it and then resisting it? Because that was the sure way to keep you the magical being solidly locked into the box. At first, building the box, and then, resisting it, which makes it real and solid. Even reinforces each wall. What we resist persists. Heard that before? We fuel our energy and life force into that which we resist. 

Now, how brilliant is that? It is super-brilliant! This way, we made sure that we will not be who we truly be! It is giganticly brilliant. Do you see how potent you are? You managed to prevent a volcano from being a volcano, you managed to tie the most potent dragon to the ground, you managed to keep the fire tiny tiny tiny, less that a whee match light. It took more energy to keep it whee tiny than it took to keep it going. You are brilliant. We are brilliant creators. 

And, now, what can we choose now? Keep it whee, or use our energy and brilliance for creating future?

Now is the time to .... choose again.... something different..... it costs too much to stay tiny.... it costs our joy..... it costs our being.... it costs the earth..... it costs living.... it costs oceans, lakes, rivers, giraffes, butterflies, bees, elephants, rhinos, .... it costs future.... 

Would you be willing to be the Magic you truly are? 

The dragons, unicorns, elvens, fairies and all the others that don't have names because they couldn't be confined? They are not whee. They are willing to be potent and aggressively present.

Now's the time, my friends. We are not whee. Together we are a wave of consciousness that is unstoppable, that can create anything.

Going beyond the Box

Stepping into greater 'being' comes, very often, with a big 'magnifying glass', where we are being presented with and given the opportunity to look into areas where we have tugged away judgments and points of view, unnoticed, unacknowledged and hidden. When these come up, first thing is to keep breathing, and then ask "What's right about this I'm not getting?"

Wanna hear a little story about that? Keep reading, then.

Today, I came across an old email folder, and I opened an email from 2012 that said the following "Dear Bettina, We have been busy reviewing images on ..(our website).. these past few days, and have come to the conclusion that your work is not appropriate for the markets we are trying to reach. .... Your images will not appear on our website, and no further action is required on your end. Please accept our very best wishes to you in the creation and marketing of your artwork. Sincerely, xyz".

Reading this brought up monsters and ghosts that I had shut away in some closets.... and they started all dancing around me!!!! Wow!!!! How much power had I given away to that one person, that one organization, 4 years ago (almost 5 years)? I had all kinds of emotions come up (this morning), ranging from anger, vengeance, sadness and more anger and more anger and upset and so much resistance....!!!! Clearing out all of that!!!! I was definitely NOT in allowance of their choice. There was rejection, 'not good enough' and not being willing to receive judgment.

Looking into this, I saw that I had stopped putting my art out to any organizations, always concerned about more rejection and more judgment. And, what did this create? A box. And more rejection and judgment of me and my creations. Funny is, with being an artist, I'm playing in an area of this reality where there is quite a bit of judgment, and then I refuse to receive judgment????

When I refuse to receive all the shades of judgment that anybody has about art, my art, when I refuse that, how small and hidden do I have to be? I have allowed these people with their points of view to stop me. I allowed that energy to contaminate my well of joy and creation. Like a poison. I made my being and creation so little, and I let people trample on me and my art. Wow! No more. I receive all the judgment that I chose to not receive, in any past or lifetime, I receive it all today. This is all changing now. So grateful that I have the tools now that I didn't have then. And these tools even change the past....

A good question to use is also (and I use it today!) "What does this (email or judgment) mean to me?" All the meaning that we give to things or points of view are only a story. A story that we use to stop us. A story is a box that limits what we can create, receive and be.

Could it be fun for you to access the open space beyond any box? If you would like to look into where you have created a box and you would like to get out of that box, join me on January 28th, in Wisconsin.

I'm offering a class, "A Taste of Out of the Box". More information and registration HERE
