Guardians of the Ocean!

2013-11-21T10:56:00.002-05:00

This morning I shared on my show the story of the Great Guardians of the Oceans… The Orca Whales. Many call them Killer Whales, but I prefer to call these great Black Fish by the name they were given Orca’s. I hope you take a moment from your day to enjoy this broadcast, about 1/2 hour long… listening to the traditional calling of the Orca Whales by the Tulalip Clan… put me into a zone. As I was doing prayer, I lost my concentration as I was being spoken to from another realm…which you will hear me call myself back to the present moment… So I share my Humaness with all of you today…

Blessings to you all! ~ bear Medicinewalker

Join in with us today as Jane Wilcox stops in!

It was a dark and stormy night, in the midst of a terrifying Midwestern thunderstorm. Jane, then 11 years old, was awakened from a deep sleep by a petrifying clap of thunder. In the same second, three divine figures descended from the ceiling of her bedroom. The one in the middle was huge, dressed in red, and holding a book. Two on either side were brilliant white light figures, holding candles. The visit was brief, the impression lasting a lifetime.

Since that time, Jane has held a natural propensity and empathy for others. People just naturally open up to her, and she listens.

Listen and share with us your stories of life and learning. Call in and let us guide you through a Spiritual Reading with the help of the Ancients.

The 13 Grandmothers ~ Or Moons....

2013-02-27T15:24:00.001-05:00

Each of the Grandmother Moon's ....has wisdom to share. Their teachings are not only about the sacred feminine, for men too can learn from their light. Each Moon asks you to consider mentally reviewing the ‘then and now’ in your life as you assess things with each new Moon cycle. By seeing where you’ve been in the past and what’s changed as a result of walking consciously with the Grandmothers you’ll see the value in their lessons. The focus each Moon... should be on taking the negatives and transmuting things positively, getting a feel for the truths you’re recognizing and understanding how to apply them in your daily life.

*February ushers in "Wisdom Keeper" who is the Teacher that brings forth lessons about Honoring the Truth. She teaches us the Arts of Self-development and Expansion. Through her we learn how to access Mother Earth’s Memory, enhance our personal recall, tapping into ancient wisdom and knowledge. In this way we come to understand the wisdom that every life form holds as well as their missions. We learn how to be a friend and to restore friendship by honoring the viewpoints of all life forms through honoring the truth. Wisdom Keeper reminds us that all history is kept in the libraries of the Stone People and that to access that history, we must learn to hear their voices for they record the Remembering for the Earth Mother.

She helps us see that to honor the truth of all that has been, we must tap more than human awareness, cultural traditions or stories. The history of all that has happened on our planet is forged in stone so it’s in the body of the Earth Mother we are presented with tangible records. She also shows us how to honor the truth as it is seen from each person's Sacred Point of View because all individuals experience life's events in a different manner. Here, by honoring our own truths we honor our own sense of self-development and learn to allow others to do the same. Every new understanding of the truths that others carry adds to our personal knowledge base, and our experiences bring us wisdom. This further creates the development of a right relationship to All Our Relations within ourselves.

Look for the book "The 13 Original Clan Mothers" by Jamie Sams... it is a very good read!!! Or... scroll though our "Two Moons Talking" show archives.

Heaviness of Spirit

2013-02-26T08:41:00.004-05:00

Heaviness of Spirit

My question was for AA Raphael – I sometimes feel like our spiritual journey leads us not to the light but into the darkness. I say this because even through what is meant to be helpful is perceived to be something totally different. Saying something that you feeling is right and true but not necessarily what needs to be said or heard. Which of course tends to overwhelm us, creating doubt about our integrity, exposing our shortcomings, making us second guess who and what we truly are and why or for whom are doing it for. WHY do I feel like the weight of the world is on my Shoulders? Is it that I have placed her there?

The Answer my child is simple, the moment you stop causing suffering to yourself of others by things perceived or otherwise is the moment you release the need to walk a path of suffering, a path of pain and a path of fear. You become lighter in spirit, in thought and in body. As for your spiritual journey it only goes where you tell it to for you are the creator of your experiences/life/lessons. Remember the darkest hour may be the most illuminating one of your life. For you see if you have never walked in the darkness you can never know the light!

Darkest Before the Dawn

Darkest before the Dawn

I am Archangel Haniel you know me by this;

I represent the glory and grace. I am the one who sees God. My month is December; my flower the Rose, my color is the deepest of emeralds and 4 leaf cloves. I came for a visit to share some insight; with the one they call Illumination for I am drawn to her light. Each of us has a shining light within; when we use this as a collective there is no way that we will not win.

My message is quick yet very strong “It’s always darkest before the dawn”. Hear me dear ones for I know what I say. Right now the energy is high and feelings are hot, the weight of the world puts you on the spot. Stay true to you though at times it feels rough, stand strong for the ripples you make will be waves before long. Just when you think you can’t know that you can.

The changing of one letter is part of the plan. Haven becomes Heaven and can’t becomes can. How simple is that woman to man. Change how you think, changes what you become. Now add in the love and guess what, we’re done. Changing what you think allows you to be who you truly are.

A spark of the divine, an earth formed star. Given the ability to shine when you believe as we do, for it is the divine essence that flows through you. Trust in you for we do. So let your heart soar and your internal flame ignite for it is time to shine your brightest of brights.

Shine on Illumination

"Woulda, Coulda Shouldas’"... ~ Rev Anne Rose Illumination

2013-02-21T13:32:00.001-05:00

It is time to step out of our comfort zones! For some of us this may bring opportunities to deal with fear, doubt and or insecurities that we have been harboring. We have all heard it before the woulda, coulda, shouldas’.

This is about using this unique gift to bring about the much needed change that for reasons only you know you were unable to follow through on or make in the past. This is about A new year, A new you and A new consciousness.

If and only if you decide the new you is for you then you WILL evolve, shift, grow, learn and teach others to do the same. For we all learn by example, (some better than others) such as visual, physical, emotional, mental, and or spiritual. Let it be known that there are no longer masters of the universe. For we are all servants, servicing the greater consciousness of all!

May you see the illumination of these words, hear the thunder when I speak, feel the passion in my heart, and know the truth will set you free.

Blessings Peace and light,

Rev Anne Rose/Illumination

Following her passion

Featured artist:

Artisan answers to her Spirit’s calling
By Zak HansenLas Cruces Bulletin
Some people know what they want to be from a very young age.
Others never seem to find their place in the world, waiting and wandering their whole lives, while still others find a calling only after years of searching.
For Yolanda Martinez, drummaker and musician, it struck like a bolt out of the blue.
“The gift of the drum came in 1987. It was a calling I simply could not ignore,” she said.
To hear Martinez – who sings, chants, plays a variety of instruments, makes drums and even paints – describe her beginnings as a drummaker, what’s clear is that she is driven by a passion that many only hope to find in their lifetimes.
Martinez, who is one of three artists to be honored during February’s For the Love of Art Month show at the Las Cruces Convention Center Friday and Saturday, Feb. 15-16, will be giving two performances that weekend, at 4 p.m. Feb. 15, and 3:45 p.m. Feb. 16.
Martinez was born in Carlsbad and traveled all over the world before coming to Las Cruces in 1999. She has spent her life following her callings, whatever they present themselves to be.
In 1986, though, after several years in the title and escrow business, Martinez said she received a message from Spirit to make drums, and, the following year, she made her first.
“I didn’t realize the drum was going to be such a huge part of my journey and a huge part of what I was to become,” she said.
Martinez’s journey has taken her not only all over the country, but also all over the world, holding drummaking workshops across Europe, including an upcoming jaunt to Norway and Ireland, among other places.
While drumming is Martinez’s calling, her music is just as important – and well received.
“The drum came first,” she said, “and that’s what led me to take music seriously.”
In 1993, Martinez made her first recording, “ResoundingSpirituality,” and has since released 13 albums of her own music and chanting, including three albums in 2012 alone, “Awakening,” “Amazing Grace/Sublime Grazia” and “Songs of Joy,” a collection of Christmas-themed tracks.
Martinez is also the recipient of four nominations and three NAMMY awards, the prize given to winners in the Native American music category at the Grammy Awards.
She took home top honors in 2004, receiving the award for Best Female Artist for her album “Native Heartbeat,” and shared honors with other Native American musicians in two separate wins for collective works.
This journey is extremely important to Martinez, and through life experiences is where she finds her inspiration.
“We have to live, to experience, to find our niche,” she said. “We have to look for it, work for it, ask for it and then it will come.
“It’s all I’ve ever asked for since I was a child, and you have to work for it to prove to Spirit you really want it, that you’re willing to do what it takes to pursue.”
Martinez speaks a lot about Spirit and how important it’s been to her life journey. Another word you’ll hear her say often is “passion,” and that’s one thing she has in no short supply.
“When we follow our passion,” she said, “our creativity keeps flowing because we’re following and doing what we love. Following my passion is what keeps me going … and going and going.
“But these batteries are still going strong,” she said with a laugh, conjuring visions of a certain drumming rabbit that never seems to tire of his performance – not an ill-fitting image at all.

Las Cruces artisan Yolanda Martinez plays a homemade drum at her home in the foothills of the Organ Mountains that she said she loves so much.
