WELCOME TO OUR DECEMBER ISSUE!

You may (or may not) have noticed last month that I made a slight name change beneath my picture. It's a small thing I've considered doing for some time - to use my middle name as my professional name. But, I'll also be changing my surname later this month, and it's got me to wondering... What's in a name?

Tradition holds that a woman changes her name when she marries. Why does she, and not the man? In some cultures, a child is given a "temporary" name at birth, which he or she wears only until establishing their own name as a young adult. Numerologists carefully work out the implications of a name's spelling before changing theirs...

How does the name we wear affect how we perceive our Selves? We are, after all, still the same people underneath, right? Is it just a coat we put on, or is it more than that?

How do we know ourselves to Be in the silence, without words, without spellings and without pronunciations? How much power is really held in language ... and how much do we give away in the way we choose to use it?

Three weeks until my wedding, my brain is basically mush ... a good way to be for meditation, don't you think? Yeah, me too. So, I'm just rambling, here, though I'd love to hear your thoughts on the subject. Click on my picture to the left to email me.

Oh, and thanks for being YOU, whatever your name may be!

FLOWER ESSENCES FOR COPING WITH DEPRESSION
By MARLENE KEEL

Many people can relate to the saying, "Got the blues", the well known expression denoting depression and sadness. This saying often also evokes immediately memories of "feeling blue" at one or more times during their lives. For some, it may also describe their current state of mind...

FEMININE RISING: the Anastasia Series from Russia
By KATHLEEN JACOBY

Since the change in millennium, we've seen some gradual indications that the feminine aspect of existence is beginning to move to center stage. We see the fermentation of outrage against the way women and children throughout the world have been treated, with actual programs that are helping to raise awareness and offer basic things like education to girls in third world countries...

LIVING BY COINCIDENCE
An interview with ROBERT MOSS

Although dreaming has been central to my life, I did not take the decision to become a dream teacher until I moved to a farm in upstate New York in the mid-1980s and started dreaming of an ancient Iroquois Indian arendiwanen, or "woman of power", who insisted on communicating with me in a language that was not my own. This proved to be an archaic form of the Mohawk language. The Mohawk dream shaman reminded me that dreaming is all about soul...

METAPHYSICAL PRESCRIPTIONS FOR BETTER HEALTH
An interview with DR. STEVEN HODES

Some would argue that metaphysics is distinctly separate from medicine and science. I strongly disagree. To me, science and medicine are tools which can shed light on the nature of reality. I would also include art in this mix as well. It is essential to understand that our very nature includes body/mind and spirit. How else can we approach 'healing' - which means 'to make whole'?...

LIFTING YOUR VEIL, December '07:
Strategic Alliances

BY LISA RENEE

Once again we find ourselves stationed at an intersection point, this time facing many possible openings that will lead us into a completely new terrain over the next year. We are still hacking through the bush, creating a new pathway into the unknown, a process similar to "chop wood and carry water". Many of us are in a phase of learning new disciplines for our upcoming soul projects...
 


PLANETVISIONS: Karmascape,
December '07
BY MARK KRUEGER

Ya know, it's been delightful writing for you. Thanks. Appreciation comes easily during Sagittarius season. Spread it around, if you feel like it. We could all use a bit. It's been a tough year, but not necessarily visibly so. The anxiety of the software of Creation, the mind, has been noticeably noisy. The pain is essentially existential. Things likely are generally going alright for you, but there's this gnawing emptiness. That's the Dream. It's a Dream. Nothing is going on like you think. Thinking obscures...
 


LIGHT BEHIND BARS:
Soul Blossoming,
December '07

BY TOM BROWN

It was a rainy day on the prison yard, an uncommon sight in the Arizona desert. For some reason I became intent on watching the rain drops on the window of my dormitory. Two separate drops, pushed by the wind, merged into one for a moment and then divided again - each carrying with it a part of the other. Simply by that momentary touching, neither was what it had been before. And as each one went on to touch other raindrops, it shared not only itself, but what it had gleaned from the other...
 




ACCOLADE TO THE EARTH
BY STANLEY PEELE

Dr. Ihaleakala Len was a therapist in Hawaii. It has been reported that he cured a ward of psychotic patients - without ever seeing any of them. He worked at Hawaii State Hospital in the ward where they kept the criminally insane. Dr. Len studied the inmate's chart. Then he looked within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved...
 


THE SACRED GROVE
BY AMY ZERNER AND MONTE FARBER

Trees are like us: complex, sensitive, and highly spiritual living beings. Perhaps nothing else is as representative of the living energy of nature and Mother Earth as a tree. The folklore attributed to a particular tree reflects the symbolism ascribed to it by our ancestors, who worshipped trees as living totems of life's mysterious cycles and seasons...

PLANETARY CYCLES:
Astrology, December '07

BY CAROLA EASTWOOD

On Thanksgiving Day, the sun completed its transit of Scorpio, which took us on a month-long journey of deep soul-searching and personal transformation. Also on November 22, the sun entered far-sighted and truth-seeking Sagittarius. Ruled by the expansive planet Jupiter, the sun in Sagittarius seeks to expand our boundaries, pointing us toward new experiences that may engender greater wisdom...
 



New Series! SPIRITUALLY INTELLIGENT LEADERSHIP

BY WILLIAM DIEDRICH

Rebellion is another form of dependency. It focuses on blaming those who are in power and then justifying destructive behaviors with the blame. It is a victim mentality. The first step out of dependency and victimization is not rebellion; it is responsibility...
 


New Series! THE META-HUMAN PROTOTYPE, Part 1

BY DANIEL JACOB

They're here, you know. Working models of the future of humankind. They just need a little "tweaking," that's all. Children of Oneness everywhere - on, above, or below the Earth - are busy about the process of perfecting humanity's "Glorious Ones" who are destined to explore and inhabit life at The Next Level...

RHYMING STORIES:
Who Am I and Why Am I Here?

BY DANA MRKICH

Walking through the forest ~ I think about all I have done ~ During these thirty odd rotations ~ Around our great sun ~ I wonder who am I really? ~ And why am I here? ~ I hear a voice that says "you know this already ~ If you listen you'll hear...
 


THE CHAKRAS:
Your Energy Pipeline, Part 6

BY CARLA L. RUECKERT

PUNK SCIENCE:
Inside the Mind of God

BY DR. MANJIR SAMANTA-LAUGHTON, MD

A surprisingly large percentage of people who have been close to death report having had an experience whilst their bodies were physically dead or almost dead. Few extensive epidemiological studies have been done on this subject, but some small surveys have found the number close to 50 per cent of those who have almost died...
 


VISION OF THE GRAIL:
Part 19: Vision of the Grail

BY KATHLEEN JACOBY

As I'd researched and opened my mind to the possibility of the Grail, it moved beyond the Silver Chalice from which Jesus presumably drank at the Last Supper, and the Holy Grail in the legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table. The Grail became an object throughout history that cultures held as a touchstone...
 




THE THREE "ONLY" THINGS
BY ROBERT MOSS

Coincidence can inspire a sense of awe, a feeling we are in the presence of the numinous. I was standing in a very clean park - no litter to be seen - talking on my cell phone about how in the Middle Ages the Christ energy came to be identified with the stag. (Yep, that's the kind of conversation I have on the phone...)
 


DIVINE DUALITY
BY WILLIAM KEEPIN, PH.D.

Gender healing work is not quite what it first appears to be. Delving deeply into this work inevitably takes people on an inner journey, and, if they follow it far enough, they are ultimately led into an awakening of an expansive, all-encompassing love. This is called in some traditions an encounter with the Beloved - a mystical form of love. It is where gender reconciliation work ultimately leads...
 




FROM THE HEART:
Whom To Spend the Holidays With

BY ALAN COHEN

The holiday season brings with it the inevitable questions, "Who will I spend the holidays with?" "Which family members should I visit?" "Must I really go to this party?" Here is the answer to all of your holiday questions: Love yourself enough to be where joy guides you...


HEAVENLETTERS™:
December '07

BY GLORIA WENDROFF

Becoming unattached is the same as becoming unbounded. You are untied to whatever has been holding you back. You are untied from the past, and you also come to see that the past never was. You are not tied to the future either. You are not tied...


THE CONTEMPORARY BODHISATTVA:
The Bodhisattva Vow

BY SUZANNE MATTHIESSEN

If and when a person makes a conscious decision to do all it takes to hasten their own spiritual awakening for the positive impact it has upon collective humanity, it's not a choice to be taken half-heartedly. Taking the Bodhisattva Vow, as beautiful as it sounds and as lovely and joyous the path truly can be, is not for the weekend dabbler...
 


THE MUSIC BOX:
December '07

BY TONY TOLIN

Happy Yuletide Everyone! For the month of December I have chosen my top ten favorite music reviews during my time here at PlanetLightworker. The reason for this is I have decided to stop doing music reviews because my life has become extremely busy with family obligations. I have enjoyed doing music reviews for PlanetLightworker and will miss it...
