Sacred Parenting for Indigo Children
Fam it's Venus Friday and we are surrounded with the gentle reminder to love, accept, and honor your children just how they are. We are surrounded by our increasing Moon in Taurus and our Medicine Card of the day is Deer with the energy of gentleness. Venus is the planet for love, peace, balance, gentleness, harmony, reconciliation, beauty, and things created during the energy of a Taurus Moon tends to increase in value and last the longest. Not to mention we are 4 days away from our last Full Moon of 2013. The Full Moons carry the energy of nurturing, full feminine energy, and illuminating things we don't want to face or deal with. It also tends to pull on the negative ions within the entire self bringing our bad side out so that we can heal, change and deal with it.
The energy of the Deer card brought awareness of the way we handle our children's behavior. Many of us are a aware of the extensive knowledge and wisdom our children bring with them through birth. It is amazing to see how their old souls express themselves through their little bodies. This is the age of the Indigo children and we have to handle them with care. I have 3 sons and am currently facing some difficult times with my middle child. He get's easily frustrated sometimes and I know this is linked to his confidence, and pressures from school. I do everything possible to inspire him, keep him happy and lift his spirits during these times, and you know sometimes it just doesn't work, and I can become frustrated. If I am frustrated it then makes the situation worse, and then he feels like he has done something wrong and that I don't like him due to his behavior. It's tough at times when you have to balance love and discipline. I am not a disciplining type of Mom, I just like my children to be free and happy, I like to talk to them and crack jokes all of the time. But when attitudes and behaviors fly out of the way, and consistently as well, how do you handle it without negatively affecting your child's emotions and also teaching them a valuable lesson at the same time? In the mist of my son expressing his frustrations because he can't get his way, I always talk to him or send him to have alone time to vent, and also for me to vent to deal with him properly and not out of anger. This is one of the number one things I don't like about my self as a parent and as well as others, when we react to our children's behavior before thinking through our own frustrations or issues. I am still a working progress and have greatly improved! I always like to think to myself, if I had a boss would I want my boss to yell at me or belittle me even if I did do something wrong? No, I would want him to speak to me with respect and respond to my mistake with compassion and wisdom to guide me in the right direction the next time. This is what our children need. We should not make them feel horrible because they made a bad choice, this severely affects their self-esteem, it makes them feel unworthy. Especially with most of us parents now realizing the hurt and pain we experienced as children due to our parents not having the proper knowledge, guidance and wisdom to raise us properly. Many of us now have that very sacred ancient energy pouring through us and we are healing our selves and should focus that energy to our children as well so that there will be less healing they have to do when they grow up. Instead they can already be in a healthy state of mind and grounded in their own power and identity to live out their destiny's in life. As awakened parents it is our job to to break the bad DNA chains that have been instilled in us over the generations and rebuild those links with the proper energy and power to pass on to our little ones.
The deer card is telling us to find the gentleness of spirit that heals all wounds and stop pushing so hard to get our children to change, accept them how they are. I will share the medicine of deer.
"One day Fawn heard Great Spirit calling to her from the top of Sacred Mountain. Fawn
"One day Fawn heard Great Spirit calling to her from the top of Sacred Mountain. Fawn
immediately started up the trail. She did not know that a horrible demon guarded the way to
Great Spirit's lodge. The demon was trying to keep all the being of creation from connecting
with Great Spirit. He wanted all of Great Spirit's creatures to feel that Great Spirit did not want to
be disturbed. This would make the demon fell powerful, and capable of causing them to fear
him.
Fawn was not at all frightened when she came upon the demon. This was curious, as the
demon as the archetype of all the ugly monsters that have ever been. The demon breathed fire
and smoke and made disgusting sounds to frighten Fawn. Any normal creature would have fled
or died on the spot from fright.
Fawn, however, said gently to the demon, "Please let me pass. I am on the way to see
Great Spirit."
Fawn's eyes were filled with love and compassion for this over sized bully of a demon.
The demon was astounded by Fawn's lack of fear. No matter how he tried, he could not frighten
Fawn, because her love had penetrated his hardened, ugly heart.
Much to demon's dismay, his rock-hard heart began to melt, and his body shrank to the
size of walnut. Fawn's persistent love and gentleness had caused the melt-down of the demon.
Due to this gentleness and caring that Fawn embodied, the pathway is now clear for all of Great
Spirit's children to reach Sacred Mountain without having to feel the demons of fear blocking
their way.
Deer teaches us to use the power of gentleness to touch the hearts and minds of wounded
beings who are trying to keep us from Sacred Mountain. Like the dappling Fawn's coat, both the
light and dark may be loved to create gentleness and safety for those who are seeking peace.
If Deer has gently nudged its way into your cards today, you are being asked to find the
gentleness of spirit that heals all wounds. Stop pushing so hard to get others to change, and love
them as they are. Apply gentleness to your present situation and become like the summer breeze:
warm and caring. This is your tool for solving the present dilemma you are facing. If you use it,
you will connect with Sacred Mountain, your centering place of serenity, and Great Spirit will
guide you."
Message of the Day:
"Your children chose you, you're they're light, cherish they're innocence and don't inflict unnecessary wounds on them due to they're mistakes. They chose to come through you and you chose to create them and give them the best experience as children on this journey."
Meditation of the Day:
Find a quiet place, and have a pen and paper handy. Close your eyes, tune into your breath, and embrace slow deep breathing. When you mind is calm, your body is relaxed and you are ready, bring to mind the earliest remembrance of childhood. Smile at the things you liked, cry if you need to about the things you did not like. If you could have done anything different about your childhood think of that. Allow all of the energies to come up from your childhood that you can handle. Begin to write these things down in different columns. 1 column for what you liked, 1 column for what you didn't like, and 1 more column for how you would've changed the things you did not like. In this energy bring to mind your child, step into their shoes. Do you really know your child, do you know their thoughts, how they feel about themselves, what makes them feel like a champ? Do you know what makes them feel low, sad or like a bad person. Compare the energies of your child with how you felt as a child. Think about the experiences you had as a child compared to the experiences your child is having with you. Are you protecting your child, are you giving them your all, do they feel loved and special. Do you make sure to genuinely tell your child each day how special, and loved they are? I can not tell you how to begin to implement these things into your life. What I can say is meditate on what is realistic for you to make sure you repeat the same things that were good for you as a child and do not repeat the bad things that happened to you as a child .. Molestation is a big problem. Not just with adults violating children's private areas, but also children violating other children's private areas, which opens them up to sexual promiscuity at a young age. Talk with your child regularly about things that will not come up in simple everyday conversations, don't pry, be at a oneness of energy so your child flows off of your vibes and feels safe and comfortable discussing the issues and feelings they have about being a child. I know we are all excellent parents, but spirit is shining a light on somethings to make sure we are giving our all and raising healthy holistic children.
