Raven's Notes:
Have you noticed the changes? Summer solstice brought a lot of change and cleansing to us all.
The brightest day of the year helped illuminate old ideas, patterns, and beliefs we were ready to release.
Try not to over analyze these changes but instead just surrender to the changes and open yourself to a new calm within your heart.
I'm happy to announce I'll be traveling to Australia in August to attend healing ceremonies with the Elders.
I'm creating special beaded necklaces to carry all of our love to the ancestors and these Wise Women.
I'll be collecting beads all month and stringing them together before I go. If you feel inspired to include your love and friendship please email for details and an address to ship your beads
(Beads need to arrive before August 10th raven@ravenmedium.com ) Enjoy the summer and change with grace and ease! Namaste' Raven

The Heart is our connection to higher Self, Divine, and the truth of our soul. It always has the whole picture of what is next in our journeys. To be centered is to be in your heart center, in this place you can be at peace with all life. Knowing and understanding is easy because our hearts can communication with all life in the language of Love. Although we may know the answer in our hearts we can block this flow with our mind thinking we don't deserve life, with our emotions we can overwhelm our heart with anger, fear, or jealousy, and in our bodies can be slow to respond to change we see in the heart. Our hearts are the true conductors of our universal song we sing, it's allowing it to sing that song that allows love to flow.
The Mind is our way of understanding the world around us. It allows us to see differences, similarities, to know our own self (ego), and to have choice. The mind can process this amazing life we live, learn from our lessons, and remember them so to teach others our wisdom. The mind can take ideas and desires of the heart and figure out a way to create them in this reality. The mind can do many things when given tasks to do with love and gentleness. The mind often gets bored so it can take over the heart, ignore the body, and criticize the emotions for being weak. When we can have our minds and hearts working together we can know what we desire and the mind sets to work manifesting it in our lives.
The Emotions is our physical way of expression. We often speak of the ‘mind, body, spirit' but we leave the emotions out of this important connection. To feel emotions we need a body. In spirit we carry emotions, but to expression them and to experience them we need a body. Emotions allow us to learn quickly, to express the joy of a new toy and the sorrow of an old broken toy. Emotions house our inner child and inner desires. When the mind will not listen the heart will often speak our desires to the emotions. Emotions will reveal your true feelings about a situation or person, and can help you feel the truth about life.
The Body is the physical vessel we chose to house all of the parts of us. The body allows us to feel emotions, make choices in our minds and experience truth in our hearts. The body was Mother Earth's gift to us to be human. We come into a body to learn, grow and love. These bodies age and transform very quickly allowing us to advance through lessons much quicker than in our spirit bodies. The body can be slow to change when it feels left out of the decisions of the mind, and protective of the emotions when it is hurt. When we put the heart in charge we find our daily routines change to a more loving pace which allows the bodies to speed up and transform quickly.
When we can connect all 4 parts in our selves we find the path to Spirit easy to follow. We know what we desire, how to manifest this desire, we feel joy in this desire, and we do this desire.
When we are in balance and alignment in self we can do anything. So my loves check in with yourself and see how each part feels. Does your mind need a new task? Does your body need attention?
Are our emotions being honored? Can your heart create a new way of love that is easier? Divine gave this unique system within us to be a map to ourselves. Navigate life with gentleness and joy my loves, until next time.

Raven's Notes:
Communication is definitely the theme this year, and although we often think of speaking our truth and voicing our emotions listening is a big part of communication too.
Many Spirits from all realms have much to share if we are willing to learn to listen with our hearts. Open yourself to a new experience by listening to Nature. Does your garden need something?
Does the cat prefer tuna instead of beef? Or is that crow cawing at you trying to tell you to slow down and watch the birds? Listening can help us connect with our angels and ancestors too.
Many ancient beings are willing and joyful in teaching us new insights, understanding new and old healing tools, and opening us to more healing.
The more you can surrender to Spirit and listen to what they have to offer life flows with such ease and grace I wonder why I did it the hard way the first time.
Got to start some where! So quiet that busy mind and enjoy the conversations with whoever or whatever may come to share their love and light with you. Namaste' Raven

Packing in the rows with more plants does not mean you'll have more at the harvest time. Each desire we wish to grow needs room to expand and become it's own special piece of your life. Anytime we force something in our lives it usually reacts in a totally different way then we expected. Expect the unexpected! Giving yourself room is allowing life to flow and change anyway it can. If you expected three sunny days and only got 1 enjoy each day for what inspires you that day. Nature loves planning each day so that her garden grows and changes perfectly in that day. What you focused on that day was perfect, as what you focus on now, and tomorrow be perfect again. Giving yourself flexibility can allow for new creative outcomes.
When we just allow ourselves to be directed by the heart to one row of desires at a time we can part more love and energy to grow those heart choices faster then spreading ourselves too thin. With such a busy schedule and busy world it is a wonder we can finish anything in life. Rest is often overlooked in the growing process because we do not see it as productive. Plants rest every night just as humans and animals. We all need rest away from our work to recharge and refocus our energy. What project can wait until tomorrow? Have you completed a project and must simply allow it to finish when it's ready? Do you need to clear some of your rows for more space? Taking a good look at yourself and your heart desires can be refreshing.
Allow me as your master gardener to remove old beliefs (weeds) and keep the balance of space and rows with all that you wish to create in your life.
Life will surprise you if you allow it to grow in your daily experience. Grow well my loves!

Raven's Notes:
I love spring time! The flowers are blooming, the snow is (hopefully) retreating back up the mountains, and warm sunlight creates this intoxicating smell from Mother Earth.
Having a dog and a 5 year old son has helped me remember the joy of rolling in the grass and exploring in the woods.
Life may be changing, but it's the fun and silly times playing with my family that help me stay open to life and strong in spirit. Go outside and have some fun! Namaste' Raven

Our breath is something we do without thought. Good thing since you all are so busy all the time. But breath is like food, you need to get enough air from good sources and feed yourself daily. Breathing can become more of a conscious choice so that you use the breathe to feed and release to the best ability for your body. There's no better indicator in your body of your ability to release and accept new life. Like the motor in your car it sets the pace of life and your experiences. When we become more focused on how we breathe we open the doorways to more healing, and more life.
Breathing is easy, but learning to control the breath in meditation can help be more balanced in the body and give busy minds something to focus on. Try breathing in for the count of 5, hold your breath for just 1 second, and then release for a count of 5, finishing with another 1 second hold. In 5, hold, out 5, hold, and repeat. As you breath in and out you'll notice it may be harder to breath in for the whole count, or maybe you're rushing to release. This restriction helps you understand where you are blocking life. Breathing in is the acceptance of life. To receive of abundance, people, events, loved ones. When we block this flow we cannot breath fully or open our arms to accept love. Breathing out is all about releasing old energy, pain, limitations, emotions, or experiences in life. When we cannot release we feel tense, caged, bloated, or even toxic not only from not releasing the toxins from our blood but from the stagnant emotions and energy we store within us. We often restrict our breath through tight clothing, bad posture, or simply not choosing to breath more deeply while working. Focusing on the in and out of your breathe can bring your prayers to you with new clarity, while releasing all old beliefs and fears around your desires.
Try using your breathe to release your fear, send loving energy to those you love, and help you to wake up out of boredom or difficultly. Your breathe can send love through a fingertip, warmth to cold feet, and connect you with another's heart. Breathing together with another brings union in spirit and can show understanding when words are lacking in expression. Breath connects us to all life. All beings breathe, maybe not with lungs, but in their own special way all life exchanges energy in and out of their forms.
As you begin to breathe more of life, you notice more of life. Although we use our sight to experience much of life we do use our noses to remember events.
Fresh cookies, play dough, baby shampoo all remind us of our children or even our childhood. Fresh flowers connect us to Earth and through the aroma oils her healing energies.
What do you smell today? Did it please your senses? Did it bring an old memory to the surface? What smell calms you or excites you?
Try walking outside today my loves, close your eyes, and experience your world through your nose. Breathe in that new day, release yesterday, and know you are alive today.

Raven's Notes:
Changes, changes, changes!!! Wow! Life is dramatically changing for me and everyone I know around me.
It is so inspiring to see so many of us who have been waiting, growing , and learning stepping into the roles we've been appointed by the Divine.
Often the part we played up to now has been fun, but needed to be totally re-invented. Events or plans not thought possible are being reviewed and/or completed.
And many of us are being asked to step out into the light to speak up for the Divine in new and exciting ways. Just as scientists know a volcano can rebuild it's self in just a few years
verses eons we too can have insights and spiritual awakenings happen in a few days. Be open to whatever or whoever Spirit brings (and you know who you are out there!!!! Big Brother :) )
because when we stop resisting and start accepting life can move with such force our lives will be changed forever. Namaste' Raven

How do we close down our Divine flow? Fear. Fear is a boundary or door we put in our way to keep ourselves safe. It is what keeps us safe when we climb on the roof so that we don't decide to jump off to test gravity. Fear helps us question our decisions until we are ready to grow past that restriction. Once we are done with that limitation (fear) it is released back to the universe to be transformed into another helpful boundary until we change the fear again. Fear is part of us. It serves a purpose, but it does not hold the keys to our decisions.
How do we release fear? Love. Love is the master key that opens all locked doors and releases fear back to God. Love your fears! When we view fear as a door, thank it for it's protection it has provided, and walk through the fear, it now has no more power or purpose. The flow of the Divine rushes back into your life and everything can breathe, change, and manifest. One fear at a time. Often these fears are linked, so if one opens, they'll all open to your love. It as easy as choosing one fear today to witness, love, and release to me. If your life is stuck then a door of fear is closed. Ask to reveal the fear that holds you back, and then love and release that fear so you can open your arms to receive once again.
One of the easiest ways to tell if you are closed to life and stuck in fear is check to see if your arms are crossed. We reflect our inside world with what the outside world is doing.
When we cross our arms we tell others the doors to our heart is closed. Crossed arms slow the Divine flow to our hearts, and communicate mistrust of life. So open those arms wide.
Breath deeply of the air and sun, and welcome each new day as a opportunity to receive and give from your heart. Receive my love, feel my warm hug, and see the smile that today you are a changed person.
Today you receive all life, all love, because you are love.

Raven's Notes:
Spring is in the air! The frog song at night is so beautiful, it sings me to sleep and whispers the promise warm weather is on the way.
Frogs sing the rain from the clouds so they can make more frogs. Although I'm done making little frogettes I do find myself singing songs as I create art, write, and garden.
Our voices are powerful things, so sing in the shower, in the car, or to the flowers as they push through the soil to bless and celebrate life. Namaste'

Blessed are those who sing their heart song. They can help us release sorrow, excite our hearts, and connect us to the source of love. We love to add our healing energy into these lyrics and instruments. We are all vibrations of the same energy of source, so allow yourself to be drawn to the music your soul needs. Songs heal by bathing the body with the words or instruments that create a balanced feeling within our cells. Songs that repel us do not bring harmony. This is why there are so many songs to be sung. And why many artist our drawn to re-sing older songs, changing them to heal the newer souls of now. Matters not what kind of music your soul wants as long as the heart feels open and balanced when listening.
Choose a song. To listen and to sing. I know many of you howl out loud when the lyrics touch that part of your soul that needs released, or wants to express joy.
Do not fear your voice. Sing your song with passion and strength. In your singing you will hear your song, your purpose. You will know what the next step is to take,
just as you know what lyric to sing. We will be your back-up singers, your chorus, and your orchestra so that being the star singer is easy. Take a deep breath and sing.

Raven's Notes:
Wow! What a difference the energy is from last year to this year. With our first full moon of the year we received a huge dosage of energy full of love and new possibilities.
Time to be creative, think of new dreams, or revisit old dreams and make them happen. And don't worry about making the wrong choice! All paths lead us to where we desire. Just allow yourself the easy path :)
I feel the excitement in the air, so bring on spring, sun, and new beginnings. Namaste'

Sound is vibration. Our universe means ‘one-song' so we all are part of this one song. Each cell vibrates within your body, and each soul has a different vibration causing an unique form. Everything we come into contact with vibrates against our own special tune. Sometimes these vibrations combine and lift up our spirits like when we laugh with a friend, or pet an animal we love. Other times our energy/vibration clash with other tunes and we become irritable, panic, or repulsed. This natural push or pull allows us to resonate with what serves us and release what does not. Of course our own vibration changes as we learn and grow. So our tastes, desires, and dreams changes to reflect this. Just because we are not drawn to a person, place or thing now doesn't mean that will be the same in a few months or days time when you change. The universe song is always changing.
When we become more sensitive to sound we often need a break from the noise of our surroundings. Just like our eyes need a break when you stare at this screen too long, our ears need silence. By turning off the background noise we can hear what we have running. Each device/appliance, lights, fans, and heating make noise. It is often when nature turns the power off for us do we hear true silence. We have learned to filter the noise around us. But for many of us our filters are tired. We need less noise. To hear your own voice, the crowd must be quiet.
As you turn off the background sound and decide what you want to listen to you may notice a lot more noises you do not resonate with. Music, TV, Talk Radio, etc will either have a good vibration or bad vibration. If it does not sound good don't listen and turn it off. As we practice listening with our whole bodies we can fine tune our inner ears to hear truth in others. It feels right when we hear truth and repulses us with lies. By surrounding ourselves with loving sound we can vibrate with health and love. And even when we find ourselves in the middle of a crazy sound our tune will find the harmony of love.
Enjoy the silence my loves. Quiet your life so you can quiet the mind and hear us within.

Raven's Notes:
As we begin a new year I am called upon from Mother to share with you my journey with you.
Since this year is about communication and singing from our heart expect great things to happen around us we let out all those hidden secrets we've been hiding.
Of course this means saying the wrong thing at the wrong time. So get ready to taste your feet as we ‘put our shoe in mouth' and start living and speaking as our true selves.
Fly free and be the wind of change! Here's to a New Year! Namaste' Raven

This year brings us a change of the introverted healing energy of last year to a extroverted expression of our soul. Often we experience great leaps of understanding within ourselves, followed by a shift to expression and sharing with those around us. An ebb and flow like breathing or the waves of the ocean. This balance of filling ourselves with knowledge and releasing wisdom to those around us creates harmony within life and self.
One of the easiest ways to share our experience with others is to speak out. Communication on all levels will begin to open everyday this year. Communication with humans, animals, plants, spirits and of course within us. You may experience buzzing or ringing in your ears as these lines of conversation open and clear. Often the buzzing is our way of ‘paging' you to listen. To listen you just need to take a few moments to stop, breathe, and focus on your heart. Even if the words sound like your own voice, the message will be from us. It is these gleams of wisdom when shared that cause great change and inspiration to others when you share them. It is through each of you that we, your spiritual guides, change your world.
It is important to open yourself to this dialog between you and the world around you. What you have been holding in your heart is being released to be revealed. When we resist speaking we cause tension in our hearts and throats. We have removed many of your blocks so the words can flow freely, but this means you will say what you expected to stay hidden. It can cause you grief if you say your truth. But know the outcome will always be what was needed.
We have always shown you that what you think you create, but this also true of what you speak. Communication is through words or voice helps create the potential energy of self. If you speak of good things for self, good things of life will be forth coming. Check in with self and change that negative tone to optimism and acceptance.
Enjoy your new day my loves as you create this new year. Enjoy the freedom of speech from the heart and know as you practice sharing more of your inner self you'll find being yourself is very enjoyable!
All my love today and always.
Namaste' Mother Mary
