Where has time gone? Have you noticed that time is going faster lately? It is! It has been a time of intense energy shifts, with even our weather reflecting many things to us. Many have been feeling these shifts deep within their spirits and certainly within their physical bodies. Many share that they are working harder to stay in balance than ever before, and feel consumed with intense feelings now coming up for healing and release. The energy is like that of childbirth; though these contractions are felt within the heart and solar plexus, and the urgency to "push" intensifies. Humanity, our four legged and winged siblings, and the Universe itself, is releasing, purging, letting go in magnificent waves, all that is of the lower vibration. We are indeed shedding the old, like the trees in Autumn and early Winter do, to make way for the new growth and freedom that awaits. The Autumn winds, rains and sunshine are beginning to manifest as we prepare for harvest, and the reaping of the bounty of the seeds we planted not so long ago.
What seeds have you planted this year? What grows in your garden? Have you planted seeds of oneness, harmony, positive intention and joy? Have you sown seeds of unity and cooperation within your community, cultivated friendships and loving relationships with your family and coworkers? Has your harvest been sprinkled with abundant appreciation, validation, and love?
May you and yours be graced with all that you hold sacred this Autumn and in the coming months of winter.
Love and many blessings, Lynne

God, we pray this day for each other and for all living things, with open hearts and deep faith in the blessings in all our life experiences.
We pray for the well being of our sisters and brothers throughout the Universe as we enter the season of Autumn. We hold all those who are hurting, feeling lost and lonely, ill and in pain, in our hearts and in our prayers.
We pray in earnest for those who have suffered catastrophic loss, and those who assisted them in the healing process. We pray for food and shelter, for abundance, for all. Oh, God! Hear our prayers!
God, help us stay centered in your love, as we draw closer to Election Day and may new energy flow as we exercise our freedom to vote. May our votes be Divinely guided, that our country, our world, our universe might heal.
Oh God! May we stand in our power, with you as our source without competition, greed, rage or war, as one voice and one heart, in our desire to live in loving community, in peace.
With deep love, and gratitude, Lynne
Message from One Voice~One Heart
Beloved Ones
We come in direct relation to the calling we hear from your hearts with regards to your fears about the economy, the weather related incidents, and the upcoming elections in the United States in November.
It is with deep respect and love that we gather around you at this time of flux and change. Deep within, your fears magnify, at times to heights that leave you feeling out of control, lost, afraid, and feeling oftimes powerless. We stand before you this day to help you reconnect with the energy of faith and hope and to remind you of your ability to manifest all that you need, no matter what the circumstance. This manifestation knows no bounds, and yet in order to manifest the change you so desire, you must stay out of fear! Each time fear rises up, feel it! Feel it, and then let it go by replacing it with concrete action! Seek counsel....seek answers...seek to assist others, and take concrete action! Go inward and ask for guidance as to what your next step and your solutions might be, and be mindful of the fact that you have free will and choice in every moment and that each decision you make and action you take, affects the outcome of what you manifest in your own life.
Now is the time to come together in more tangible ways than ever before, as community to help in the purging, healing and re-birthing process of our Universe. Join forces, join hearts and spirits with others, and form families of choice....communities with other mulit-talented souls, and stay centered in the knowing that the answers will be provided to you, as they are needed. The answers are always in reach, beloved ones! Find a sense of renewed purpose, establish a sense of teamwork, and even find your sense of humor, which can be life altering and profound in difficult times.
At this time of harvest and shortened days, as your summer flows into autumn, find your gratitude and moments of peace within you, for these can change the course of your day. Make time in each and every day to be still and to listen deeply to the signs all around you that flow in every moment of your existence. Hold the warmth of the summer moments deep within your being, and immerse yourself deeply in the blazing colors of Fall.
Harvest love, gratitude, forgiveness, and take time to be in stillness, where no pain, rage or fear exist. Go into the silence....listen to the silence...renew in silence...resolve in silence....replenish and restore in silence....be the silence!
Pray with all your hearts and spirits, and let the prayer be your open channel to the Divine, that it might carry you through the moments when the ever-shifting energies are hard for you. Open up your hearts and minds to the knowing that even if the results of your prayers are not seen in the moment, seed have been planted for change, and for healing on the deepest levels. These will be witnessed as time goes by, if you are open to the possibilities in the ways in which they wll be made manifest on Earth and in all dimensions. Be open, beloved ones, to all the possibilities!

Evening Sky
Noel Skiba
Evening Sky
The once radiant sun,
Now wasted and withered,
Plunged into the sea,
Then sputtered and slithered.
~
Streaks of violet and fuchsia
Quickly gave chase,
Full of glee and laughter,
They tried to keep pace.
~
But the dying orb
Soon vanished from sight,
And the worn-out colors
Gave up their fight.
~
Orchids and lilacs
Began fading away,
Melting and merging
Into a solemn gray.
~
As billowy clouds
Continued to play,
They, too, changed hue,
From ivory to gray.
These shadowy forms,
Hovering high in the air,
Became ghostly spectators
To the whole affair.
~
In the dusky haze,
A sluggish moon came 'round.
It poked out its head,
Making a yawning sound.
Soon, the sleepy sphere
Perked up and brightened,
'Til a comet passed by,
And it became frightened.
~
At last, steel blue gave way
To a ubiquitous black:
The cosmos opened up,
And eternal light shone back.
Through starry portals,
Sparkling O so bright,
The heavens poured out,
Bringing joy to the night!
by Eric D. Greene

Giclee by Susan Ellis
The morns are meeker than they were,
The nuts are getting brown;
The berry's cheek is plumper,
The rose is out of town.
The maple wears a gayer scarf,
The field a scarlet gown.
Lest I should be old-fashioned,
I'll put a trinket on.
- Emily Dickinson
Autumn Moon
Have you bathed in the light of the moon,
in the shimmering light, immersed in the
energy of the feminine Divine?

Autumn Moon
Autumn moon in sapphire sky
you take my breath away,
as day flows into evening,
and the stars come out to play.
There's soul flow in the silence,
and a chance to go within
and my spirit finds such sweetness
as I watch the night begin.
Glory to the moonsong,
the sacred notes of home,
As it flows into my heart
breathing life into my poem!

Rainbow
To gild refined gold, to paint the lily,
To throw a perfume on the violet,
To smooth the ice, or add another hue
Unto the rainbow, or with taper-light
To seek the beauteous eye of heaven to garnish,
Is wasteful and ridiculous excess.
-William Shakespeare, King John

"Responsibility does not only lie with the leaders of our countries or with those who have been appointed or elected to do a particular job. It lies with each of us individually. Peace, for example, starts within each one of us. When we have inner peace, we can be at peace with those around us. When our community is in a state of peace, it can share that peace with neighboring communities, and so on." - Dalai Lama

Happy Halloween
Happy Thanksgiving
Thanksgiving is sweeter than bounty itself.
One who cherishes gratitude does not cling to the gift!
Thanksgiving is the true meat of God’s bounty;
The bounty is its shell,
For thanksgiving carries you to the hearth of the Beloved.
Abundance alone brings heedlessness,
Thanksgiving gives birth to alertness.
The bounty of thanksgiving will satisfy and elevate you,
And you will bestow a hundred bounties in return.
Eat your fill of God’s delicacies,
And you will be freed from hunger and begging.
- Rumi
May abundance & joy bless you
and those you love, always!
