I am back ...
My deepest apologies to those who just may have been following this blog ... life certainly has a way of taking us away at times. Since my last posting, I have been quite involved in much awakening ... not to mention a lovely trip to the divine destination of St. John USVI .. hmmm heavenly!
AS for movement, there has been alot! I have combined forces with an absolutely brilliant being with whom still hasn't personally awoken to this fact ..lol
Anyways, in my absense, I have entered into this book competition which is truly the catalyst to get my butt in gear with my servings. Would love your support by lending a vote and passing it onward to all those people in your world that just may want to participate in this experience. Here is the link that will take you to the profile page where everything is explained ....

As well, I am going to post a link here that will take your eyes to a press release that was written on my behalf as it explains the intent behind entering such a creative feat ...

... WAKE UP ...
As we know, this blog and freedomwake website was created as a means to be used to enlighten our paths and free our souls. In saying this it goes to reason that there will be many ways offered and shared for one to embrace should they feel the connection. This morning I would like to offer a new song that was created by the monks at Plum Village .... should you feel the urge, sing along, tap your toes or dance like no one is watching .. its all good!! For those of you reading this that may not be familar with the life work of Zen Buddhist monk Thich Nhat Hanh, I lovingly nudge you to check out his wisdom... he is a precious gem! Have yourself a glorious day ... love abundantly!!
What a great way to start the heart, stir the spirit and dance with the soul ... check it out!
The young monastics and lay friends of the Wake Up Movement have recorded a new song to offer to Sanghas everywhere: http://j.mp/adGX9y

... full moon a calling ...
Being the fact that tonight is a beautiful full moon, I've been guided to share a little about an animal that has always captured the depths of my heart and deeply touched my soul with its unique,fascinating and powerful ways ... the wolf! The cycle of power for this creature is of course year round but also FULL MOONS and twilight.
Here is just some information regarding "wolf medicine", as written in the book ANIMAL SPEAKS by Ted Andrews ...
"perhaps it is time to learn to listen to your own insights - wolf can help you hear the inner and guard you from inappropriate actions. It will guard you as it teaches you - sometimes strongly, sometimes gently but always with love! When wolf shows up, it is time to breathe new life into your life rituals ... find a new path, take a new journey, take control of your life! You are the govenor of your life, you create it and direct it ...do so with harmony and discipline and then you will know the true spirit of freedom!!"
So with that I invite you all the next time you gaze at a full moon to remember the magic of wolf medicine and allow yourselves the opportunity to embrace the gift of higher wisdom it so teaches those ready to learn .... and give a howl or two if you so feel guided to ... freedom awaits those willing to wake! Love, peace and blessings, always!

food for thought ...
This following message was just emailed to me from a friend and I thought I would share it here with all as the wisdom is very powerful and something that certainly makes alot of sense to my heart! Comments and thoughts are always welcomed .. namaste beautiful ones!
Who is eating the strawberries?
The other day, while meditating, I happened to be thinking about the people of Haiti and their current strife with not having access to food and being hungry. A thought popped into my head about a very easy way to help which was tied to my past experiences and teachings with the Blackfeet & the Lakota. Let me explain . . .At certain times in any one's life, we all face uncertaintees and "forks in the road", and we search out to find answers to those pressing questions and situatoins. One of the ways that native americans go about finding their truth is to do a Hunbleceya, or what is commonly known as a Vision Quest. This vision quest involves being put up on a sacred mountain, with no water and no food, from anywhere to 1 to 4 days. There, amongst other things, they will pray to Creator for guidance.I have been blessed to be a helper at some of these Vision Quests. A helper would help in any way they could for the person going through the Vision Quest, with the excpeption of making physical and eye contact with that person. Ways to help included prayer, drinking water (very important) and . . . eating. Yes, I said drinking and eating. Since the person going through the Vision Quest was not allowed to eat or drink, in order to provide that person with the strength to go through 4 enduring days, the helpers were instructed to eat and drink for that person. This involved being very present when eating and drinking, and to eat and drink with the intent of nourishing the Vision Quester. Many times when a person came down from the mountain, he/she would ask "Who was eating strawberries? They were delicious! Thank you!" It is all about our intent and being present when eating and drinking. So I ask all of you, when you eat your breakfast, lunch and dinner in the coming days, center yourself and ask your guides to send the nourishing energies of the food that you are eating, and the liquids that you are drinking, to the people and animals of Haiti. Be very present when eating with the intent and the knowledge that this occurring. I know that this may not fill the hunger and thirst void completely for those starving in Haiti, but it may very well be enough to have them hold on until the food supplies can get to them. So if you are not in the position to send money, clothing or food, or if you are not an experienced healer to send energy healing, you can still send love and nourishment. Just food for thought . . . pun intended :)With Love and Blessings,Raphael

.. and there is light ....
This moment I am filled with the realization that no matter how much hope gets lost amidst our life circumstances ... there must always be more hidden within the power of our faith...
As dark as things may appear to be, may we always continue to believe that the light of higher love is still within the rubble seeking to find its way through ....
This video is simply an example of just some of the miracles the world will be blessed to witness in the days to come ... abundant love and blessings to all!
