On the upcoming weekend we will be celebrating Easter in the Christian world. In the Northern hemisphere this date is also connected with the season of Spring. From a religious standpoint, Easter is connected to transformation, rebirth and new beginnings. The old Germanic and Celtic festivals that have been celebrated long before Christ was born, like Ostara, for example, focussed on similar topics.
This year Spring in the Northern hemisphere comes with a special energy of strong light, new inspiration and deep healing. New territory is available. Those who are up for an adventure now begin to see things they have never seen before and to explore realms they have never been to, before.
Those who have fed from the old (vampiric) energetic setup are now afraid and may try to hold on as much as they can to the old system which now has run its course and is ready to fade. Therefore we might see a lot of struggle, especially in the mass media.
I am not saying that there is no struggle. But I would like to remind everybody who is reading this that there is also a lot of good happening in the world which currently might not be promoted through the mainstream media.
All we have to do to see this, is to go out and watch for it, allow it into our life and to acknowledge even the moments and happenings that seem tiny to us.
It might seem to us as if this is only a drop in the ocean. But then again, the ocean is made of many such drops.

By shifting our focus, we not only shift our perception, we actually actively change the world we live in.”

Therefore, let us watch for peace, love and beauty, this Easter. Let us watch for all of the joyful things, for ourselves as well as for those who currently find themselves in a situation where they cannot experience these attributes even though they wish they could. Let us create a space for a peaceful life in love and beauty, let us actively bring this life into the world by living it as well as we can – for ourselves and for them.

What can you do, today, to make this world a beautiful place to live in? What can you do in each moment to allow an experience of peace into your life?
Are you ready to shine a bright light of awareness on the path of beingness, today?

Much love,

Hope you had a lovely Easter Steffi. I was with my mum in Germany and we had a lovely happy time together.
Hi Dear Ute!
Great to read that you had a lovely Easter with your loved ones in Germany, as well, dear Ute!
Kim and I gifted ourselves a delicious homemade dinner we never made before. I had found some interesting recipes in a magazine and wrote up vegan versions of them. 😉
Thank you for your happy comment and much Love,
Steffi ❤
Great post Steffi! Love the sentiments of focusing on blessings and not what is wrong around us. I have always loved Easter for the transformation it symbolizes and new beginnings. Yesterday I walked in a labyrinth in a prayer garden of a local church. It was a wonderful refueling experience. With regards to your great questions, the first thing that came to mind was kindness. Just offering someone a smile or kind word can make a huge difference and doesn’t cost a thing. Additionally, the internal peace from meditating and the changes from self awareness can definitely influence our external world in amazing ways as well! Blessings, Cathie
Hi Dear Cathie,
Thank you so much for taking the time to stop by and for sharing your beautiful insights.
Your walk through the prayer garden labyrinth sounds wonderful. What a great place to provide on behalf of the church, too.
Loved your suggestions and practice on how to make the world a beautiful place!
The benefits of meditation and awareness in regard to creating inner peace and the influence this has on our external world are something I can definitely and wholeheartedly attest to (as you surely know).
Your idea of offering some kindness is so wonderful, and coincidentally I have seen this in action today:
After an appointment in the usually very peaceful neighbourhood where I grew up we learned that the lokal newspaper store had been robbed a week ago (guns, masks and police helicopters included). The store is run by a very kind and sensitive gentlemen. Although we had nothing to buy there, today, we stopped by and just told him, how sorry we feel that he had to experience such horror. I could see how this totally lifted him up and made him stronger. He was so grateful! For us it was only a little bit of courage, three minutes of time and a smile. For him it meant a bit more of the courage he needs to stay in business.
Thanks again for your great comments, Cathie!
Much Love,
Steffi
