I have just finished watching the Moses Code movie for the second time and it has affected me the same way this time as the first. It is everything that, in my opinion, The Secret should have been but wasn't.
Where the Secret was all about 'getting stuff' like houses, cars, money - The Moses Code is about 'getting stuff' like peace, love, compassion and finding one's destiny and one's Oneness with God. How do we do this?.....by just saying Yes to God. Yes I am willing - Yes I accept - Yes!
What a simple statement, Yes God, I accept! but it was one I realized that I had never said. So I paused the movie for a moment, took a breath and said "Yes God, whatever it is you would like me to do, Yes I will do it!" and then it happened. Suddenly I felt more love and joy in my heart than I had ever felt in my entire life. I didn't know anymore than I had the moment before but that didn't matter, I had truly let Spirit in and it felt wonderful.
So do I know anymore now - no - but Spirit is still with me and, as Michael Beckwith says, "We will grow into it as we say Yes to it"

All the colours from white and black and every colour in-between....
I have to clarify something, I love the colour WHITE! White is very bright and since it reflects light, it helps to illumiate dull areas in our lives. White contains all the colours of the spectrum so when we see white, we are actually viewing all the energy of the visible colour spectrum.
White is associated with purity, spirituality, innocence, cleanliness, and clarity and at its most positive, is beneficial, humanitarian and wise. Its negative qualities (and yes everything has an opposite) include superiority, an inability to compromise and perfectionism. Healers sometimes use white light when they are not sure which specific colour should be used because white will contain the colour that they need. White is connected with the crown chakra but doesn't have a complementary colour in the eight-colour system.
Where white reflects, BLACK on the other hand, absorbs because it swallows up light. (I guess that is where the saying 'it's either black or white' comes from.) And you can tell this very easily on a hot a day, white clothes makes us feel cooler but black makes us hotter.
Black suggests infinity and mystery and it is the colour of endless possibilities. It signifies the end of one cycle and the start of the next and it is pretty darn good at making a body look slimmer than it actually is. ;)
The positive qualities of Black include power and change. Its negative qualities include depression, despair and a desire to abuse our power. Black is connected with the root chakra especially for grounding but is never used for healing and also has no complementary colour in the eight-colour system.
So there is nothing wrong with the colour Black and nothing wrong with the colour White per se, it is only when one is out of balance....ie...too much white or too much black....that changes ones state of mind....as in too much White snow this past winter. Think about how uplifting it would be to look at that snowbank...the one you have been watching get bigger seemingly right before your eyes...and see a spash of red or yellow or pink going right through the center of it...visualize that for just a moment and notice how your mood brightened and how excited you became when seeing that splash of colour.
That is part of the power of Colour and it only gets more amazing from here.....

All the Colours of Spring.
Spring has finally arrived bringing with it all of Nature's most beautiful colours and after the 'white' of this past winter - a winter that seemed to go on for an eternity - it is like waking up from a very long nap. I, like a lot of others, spent the first few months of the new year complaining on how long winter had been, how cold and especially how white. There were complaints of being too cold, being sick, and so on, and everyone was dressed in very dull, drab colours. I was ready to see more vibrant colours when I looked out the window and this Spring has not disappointed.
The white snow seemed to leave almost over night and even the brown grass and twigs were quickly consumed by the green of the new grass. Crocuses and Tulips sprung up almost instantly, plants were already budding and the birds seem to arrive en masse - even the Sun seemed Yellow-er, colour was everywhere. And the people who came into the shop were smiling and laughing and enjoying the now instead of trying to wish the months away. It was then that I realized they were also dressed more brightly.
Colour is not something I used to think about much. I chose the colour of my clothes based on three things:
1: Practicality - it is less expensive if you have a lot of one colour, mainly black, and then buy a few pieces of other coloured clothing to go along with that colour.
2: How slimming the colour - again, I always thought black was the most slimming colour
3: My personality - which is a little subdued and traditional and I don't like to stand out or be noticed.
But as I noticed my customers change in colours for their clothing along with the change in their attitude, bells started ringing.( I hear bells a lot but that is for another post. ;)) I started to really pay attention on what type of mood I was in when I chose my clothing colours in the morning. If I was not in the greatest of moods when I woke up, I would choose darker more somber colours and that mood would stay with me pretty much all day. If I woke up in fantastic, ready to face the world kind of mood, I would choose brighter colours (though I don't own a lot of bright colours as yet, I am working on increasing them) and would have an awesome day.
Hmm, I thought, very interesting. Something as simple as a change of colour can change my mood. No pills, no alcohol, just a nice yellow shirt and I feel good....why doesn't everyone know about this mood altering, mind enhancing, emotion lifting thing known as Colour?
