Firing the Grid

Morning Bloggers, this piece is from my “Manifesting with the Moon” series. I am referring in this writing to the recent surge in the stream of consciousness initiated by Shelley Yates and her Fire the Grid (firethegrid dot org; Shelley Yates at youtube) and to my following of the moon’s phases in doing my creative work:

Waxing Gibbous Moon – July 26, 2007
Moonwalkers, how did you “fire the grid” after our last communication, the one just before the new moon? The morning of that world-wide meditation, July 17th coincided with the crescent moon – an excellent time to be beginning or “firing” up a new project or a new phase/commitment in your life. I can tell you I didn’t feel any fireworks, even though I actively participated in the process. I made an altar and flanked my meditation circle with standing candles -- I burned patchouli incense for instilling the atmosphere with passion and joy and played the peaceful music from the “fire the grid” website for insuring the frequency for firing.

But though I felt no greater energetic presence or vibration than usual (and maybe not as powerful as I’ve felt on other occasions), I had a strong sense that something very good was happening. Just the awareness that so many people from many different persuasions were participating was uplifting. The thing is, this “happening” was happening while I was in the midst of a ten day summer writers’ bootcamp where I was committed to writing a thousand words a day! Phew!

So I used the fire in my grids for that project, and it has already been fruitful, even though the moon is not yet full—so there is WHAT?? Yes, that’s right, Moonwalkers, MORE TO COME!! And already more has come. From my writing program, I have been guided towards setting up a blog on blogspot dot com, a Google managed blogging program. What FUN! In just the last few days, I have launched my new blog, and have been writing a post each day. I am identified there as “In her own Voice”.

I’d love to have you stop by—however, if you choose to leave a comment there for me, it will be necessary for you to take three minutes or so and open a google account. There’s no way to post your comment without applying your google ID. It’s actually quite a world to explore. Already I have found the most interesting and readable sites with subjects of all kinds—layers and layers in which to muse, amuse, peruse and just be delighted with the variety of human talent and experience!

Some of you know, I’ve had on the table for some time, setting up a website, and I actually had someone beginning that work for me, but that began to get bogged down with various and asundry obstacles. This blog site has been the perfect answer to my needs for now and it offers so many tools for learning and practicing all the skills needed for actually managing my own website someday. (Which is what I have really wanted rather than having a webmaster to manage for me.) That will come later when my creation has grown too large and unwieldy for me to handle.

So you see, Moonwalkers, even though I felt no special surge of energy while “firing the grid” in the dawn time of July 17th, I did soon after pick up on what I had put out there for myself. In other words, I seeded the future with the energetic charge, and then it was there for me when the alignments were most favorable! And so it can be for you!

By the way, the Noetic Sciences’ Global Consciousness Project measured the consciousness in the way they have designed and found that there was a significant difference in their readings during that hour designated to our group meditation. If you’d like to check out their data, let me know. I am going to try Caffeinated Librarian’s instructions for putting in a link here, but not sure yet if I will be able to pull that off!

Anyway, Moonwalkers, the moon here in Houston will be full on July 29 at 7:48 pm. I will be walking in more and more of this lovely passionate and creative energy! How about you?
