Cherished sisters and brothers of The Sanctuary of the Open Heart,
How is your heart this day?
The longest dark is upon us, Mother's High Holy Day of Winter Solstice.
For some of you, this may be a time of great sadness and release; for
others, a time of intense celebration and joy. Very likely, a mix of
both...For whenever we consciously choose to enter the shadowy, dark
places in our hearts, it is only natural and human to feel grief. Grief
for what has been, grief for what has seemingly not been, grief for what
has been apparently lost or forgotten.
Beloveds, let's hold each
other close today. We, The Sanctuary of the Open Heart, are a living,
global temple of hearts united in Love. It is our deepest desire and highest prayer that you feel connected to the ONE HEART this day and every day...may you feel the power and divine beauty of each other's overflowing hearts.
In this moment, we invite you to take a deep, purifying breath.
Hold it in your heart for a moment and FEEL warmth and peace filling
the chalice of your heart. From this place of fullness and abundance,
the golden light may begin to overflow...pouring over the edges,
radiating in all directions, seeking the paths of least resistance,
flowing with grace and ease...finding the places where its message of
LOVE is needed most.
Your overflowing heart IS The Sanctuary of the Open Heart. YOU, YOU ARE THE SANCTUARY OF THE OPEN HEART! Our
mission as a Sanctuary is to be a community that celebrates together
the awakening of humanity to its connectedness in Love!
Your open heart is all it takes to begin to awaken other hearts.
 |
Imagine recirculating this love-light...pouring it into every heart on the planet. That is our vision!
Let
us open our hearts to generously support the Sanctuary of the Open
Heart, as a hub, a beacon, an open doorway, a heartbeat, sending out the
message that we are all intrinsically connected as One!
WE ARE ONE!
