The Wonderland Babe Tribe

Years back a brilliant documentary on spirituality and science entitled What The *&%$!? Do We Know?!  was introduced to the world.   The whole movie was inspiring but the most memorable line in the movie was a question posed… 

How Far Down the rabbit hole do YOU want to go?

That question is something I still ask myself to this day.   Especially when I face a challenge to go deeper into myself.  The Rabbit Hole aka Self is a bottomless cavern. Though I’m pretty sure we all have an inkling how deep it is none of us know how far this thing called self really goes.     And Going deeper into self is quite the adventure (to say the least).   

Sadly, fear prevents many of us from going on that particular adventure.    But what are we afraid of?  Fear of losing ourselves?  Fear of losing the people we love?  Fear that we will discover how utterly worthless we are?  Fear of the unknown?  

Truthfully, if we're being genuinely honest with our Self,  it is Fear of our own power that prevents us from taking that plunge.  All other fears are just excuses we make up to keep us from admitting to ourselves the real truth that lurks beneath.

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us." ~ Marianne Williamson

Each of us feel that power within and it scares the ever living shit out of us.  So we use distractions to keep from going on the wondrous journey within.  But the good news is, no matter what we do to keep it at bay, it's still there.  Still swirling around inside.  Still calling to us to come play.    For some it comes as a subtle urging or nudging.  For others it is a yearning.   Unfortunately, instead of just going along with it, following our guidance--that little white rabbit if you will--we choose to cover it up with distractions.   

Yes my friends, we make a choice to not accept our true Self in lieu of distractions.  Distractions we convince ourselves will fill that void.  Distractions that shuts out the voice calling to face the truth of who we are--who we really and truly are.  That very voice that is screaming YOU are the power.  You don't just possess the power--you are the power!

While we know instinctively and intellectually that everything  we read from those who do follow the white rabbit is true--we still choose distractions over going deeper.   Why?  Is it because we're afraid we will make others uncomfortable?   Seeing how self degradation has become the "in thing" these days I would say that's the case.  I mean after all we don't want to offend anyone with our greatness right?  We don't want to make them feel insecure...right??!!!

"Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you." ~ Marianne Williamson

In the religion of the insecure the worst thing we can do for ourselves and the world is not (1) being our true selves and (2) being true to ourselves!  But I say...Fear be damned!  If the people around you feel uncomfortable with your brilliance then let them be uncomfortable.   Who are they to judge you and dictate you have to be just like them and live in fear?   Go down that rabbit hole and see how far it goes!  What do you have to lose?   Sure you can stay where you are and become just like those who judge you.  But aren't you a little sick and tired of that?  Doesn't it bother you not being the true you? No matter who you are you are unique.  You are a living manifestation of glory of the Divine Creators!  You were born that way!  Just accept it and be it!


"We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.”  ~ Marianne Williamson


Don't know if Lewis Carroll knew it or not (I'm sure he knows it now *LOL*) but a new tribe was born from his classic story Alice In Wonderland.  A tribe made up of brave men and women who  respond to the question How Far down the rabbit hole do  YOU want to go?  and dive in to find the answers.    They jump in despite, and in spite, of their fears.  They have no clue what they'll find at the end, but they know in their heart of hearts it doesn't matter.  They only know they won't find out what it is or where it leads unless they take that plunge! 

That little tribe is one that I have endearingly dubbed The Wonderland Babe Tribe!  

You're cordially invited to become a part of The Wonderland Babe Tribe just so long as you know and understand the risks.  And the risks are as follows:  You'll be leaving behind everything that boxes you in and forces you to be less than you are.  You will be saying farewell, bon voyage, good-bye, and toodle-ooo  to all those who try their best to shame you in staying in the shadows and snuff out your light.   You will be letting go of everything that holds you back.  You will be releasing all those feelings of self-hatred, worthlessness and self-pity.

It's okay to be afraid.  We all are!  But we're here together so it's not really all that bad!  And best of all we have someone to guide us!  You've already met him.  He's white and furry and ohh so cute! 

Your initiation is answering one simple question....


 How Far down the rabbit hole do  YOU want to go?

Something To Ponder

How many of you expressing "We Are One" are willing to accept into your fold those who are historically deemed as "evil"?    Individuals such as Osama Bin Laden, Saddam Hussein, Mussilini, Adolf Hitler ... to name a few.  More recently ... BP Oil?  Your present government leaders?

How many of you claiming enlightenment are open to embracing these(and others like them) with open arms and pouring out the love you so readily give to those of like mind?

Easy is it to give your love and attention to those who you perceive as worthy. But again I ask ... what of those you (as a whole) ... see as "unworthy"?

Do you believe that your hatred, your angst and your prejudice against these is justified?  That  it is perfectly alright to feel these things and perpetuate the energies of these?  Do you believe that your feelings, your expressions of these feelings are any less an act of evil than the acts these (and others) have committed?

If you truly believe "We Are One" ... then you will know that your unwillingness to show love towards those you deem evil is nothing less than the acts committed by any of these you see as criminals.  In truth, you are on the same level as these in many regards. 

You claim unconditional love ... yet your Love holds many conditions.   Is this true Love?  No.  

Withholding love from those you deem "evil" locks you into the very energies you are claiming to be no part of.  Yet I will remind you ... you are all of these energies. Every thing and every one ... including those you deem evil ... are as much a part of you as those who are of like mind.   There is no separation!

"There is No Separation!"  "We Are One!"  Many of you shout!   Yet the majority of  you practice separation by denying these alleged "evil" human experiencers your love.  I say to you ...  For as long as you practice separation even on the minutest level ... you are not One with all!

These individuals  did not accomplish their deeds alone.  They had plenty of help along these lines.  YOU had a part in the devastation of land, water, air, and life.  In some way... on some level ... YOU had a hand in it all.  Yes!  YOU!

We have taken note how many of you become agitated over the very thought that the likes of these alleged "evil" men & women are the same as you.   How you resist the very idea that these very same individuals are no different than yourselves.   

"How can this be?" You ask.   "I am Love!"  You scream at the top of your lungs.  "I am One with All!"  You shout. 

You yourselves have said it.    You Are One with ALL.

If you truly understand "We Are One" ... you know it means ALL ... not just a select few.

Anger -- is unacknowledged truths about one's self.  It is the emotional shield human experiencers hide behind.  Blinders that each of you use to keep from acknowledging what is truthfully going on within your Self.  It is the emotion you use to justify your own misgivings, mistakes and resistance.

Take note when you are angry over any particular devastation ... how you focus this on the ones you deem responsible.  During these times ... many of You act as though it is all outside yourself.   As though it was all created without any assistance from You.  Again, you claim you are all one ... yet deny the acceptance and acknowledgment your Self's truth of these very words. 

I ask you now ... what is your anger really about?  Take a deep hard look within.  Could it be--the anger you feel is not so much about what "they" did ... but in truth ... your contribution to it?

If you are honest with yourself ... you will acknowledge and accept this truth.  And what is this truth?  That YOU had a hand in creating whatever devastation is occurring.

Let us take for example the current created crisis in the Gulf.  BP Oil ... has become the most despised entity in 3-D earth.   Do you truly seek to end this?  Then embrace BP Oil ... fill your heart, soul and mind with unconditional love and surround these entities ... all of these entities you feel are responsible (including yourself) ... with your Love.  

Admit you had a hand in creating this.  Express your need to be forgiven for it.  Give Thanks for the opportunity to grow from this experience ... and end it with Voicing your Love for it.

Many will recognize this method as Ho'Oponopono.  It is a heartfelt practice that allows you to reach that part of your Self that desires to be ONE with All!  Put this into practice in your daily life and notice the difference it makes in your world.

Below we have placed links to assist you in practicing this method.  It is our desire that you will join us in the blending of energies.

If you truly believe You are One with All ... then accept, acknowledge and take responsibility for ALL that has occurred on your blessed 3 Dimensional earthly plane ... then take action in resolving it in a manner that is conducive to your True Selves.

Being One With All ... Includes ALL!  Even those--nay, especially and in particular,  you dislike, disagree with and yes ... even despise.    Keep in mind they too are from the very same energies that created YOU.  

There is no separation -- only resistance to the truths you know and are coming into remembering. 

Namaste!

The Spiritual Awakening

A time comes in your life when you finally get it...when, in the midst of all your fears and insanity, you stop dead in your tracks and somewhere the voice inside your head cries out... ENOUGH! Enough fighting and crying and blaming and struggling to hold on to the illusion.

You learn that negative feelings such as anger, envy and resentment must be understood and redirected or they will suffocate the life force out of you and poison the universe that surrounds you.

Then you begin to take responsibility for yourself by yourself and make yourself a promise to never betray yourself and never, ever to settle for less than your heart's desire. As you learn and grow you start to make changes in your life, but you also start feeling different.

We call this Spiritual Awakening.

The Symptoms
**The Short List**

Changing sleep patterns. restlessness, hot feet, waking up two or three times a night. Feeling tired after you wake up and sleepy off and on during the day.

Activity at the crown of the head. Tingling, itching, prickly, crawling sensations along the scalp and/or down the spine. A sense of energy vibrating on top of the head, as if energy is erupting from the head in a shower. Also, the sensation of energy pouring in through the crown, described as "sprinkles".

Sudden waves of emotion. Crying at the drop of a hat. Feeling suddenly angry or sad with little provocation. Or unexplainable depressed. Emotional roller coaster.

Changes in weight. The weight gain in the US population is phenomenal. Others may lose weight. Advice with respect to this issue: Don't freak out, just accept it as a symptom of where you are right now. Release your anxiety about this.

Changes in eating habits. Strange cravings and odd food choices. Some find they are not as hungry as they used to be; others may be hungrier.

Food intolerances, allergies you never had before. As you grow more spiritual, you are more sensitive to everything around you.

Amplifications of the senses, increased sensitivity. Sight : Blurry vision, shimmering objects, seeing glittery particles, auras around people, plants.

Skin eruptions: Rashes, bumps, acne, hives and shingles. Anger produces outbreaks around the mouth and chin. Advice: You may be sloughing off toxins and bringing Emotions to the surface. Accept it, for it is probably temporary.

Episodes of intense energy' which make you want to leap out of bed and into action, followed by periods of lethargy and fatigue . Advice: Roll with the nature of the energy - don't fight it. Be gentle with yourself.

Changes in prayer or meditation. Not feeling the same sensations as before. Not having the same experience of being in contact with Spirit or your guides. Difficulty in focusing.

Power surges. All of a sudden you are heated from head to toe. It is a momentary sensation, but uncomfortable. In contrast, some people feel inexplicably cold. I have experienced both. Advice: Ask your Higher Power to turn up/down the temperature a bit.

A range in physical manifestations. Headaches, backaches, neck pains, flu-like symptoms, digestive problems, muscular spasms or cramps, racing heartbeat, chest pains, changes in sexual desire, numbness or pain in the limbs and involuntary vocalizations or bodily movements. Advice: Remember what I said about seeking medical help if you need it!

Looking younger. Yippee!!!

Vivid dreams. Sometimes the dreams are so real that you wake up confused. You may even have lucid dreams in which you are in control. Many dreams may be mystical or carry messages for you.
