Allow & AlignI am in a highly creative/dreaming (or attracting) mode. I have been spending time every evening to flow my energy and have now turned the corner into flowing my dreams.
Last night I began to dream about where I want to be in five years, what I want to be doing. During the dreaming I activated this energy and allowed the desire to take more and more shape. Afterwards I worked on aligning my energy to the desire. In the alignment process I found bridges between my days now and my days in my dreams five years from now.
So today I will be bridging this energy. I will be experiencing the energy of my fulfilled dreams and a few manifestations today, instead of waiting five years and shortening the time it will take for my dreams to come forward. Why wait five years?

CelebratingEvery Friday, Kalyn and I celebrate. We have a group of students and friends who are actively improving their lives who come and celebrate with us, either at our home or we choose a restaurant in Santa Fe. Since doing so, we have not only seen the manifestation of our dreams and desires accelerate in incredible ways, but we have witnessed wonderful things our students and friends are bringing into their lives.
Why is Celebration a Powerful Path to Manifestation?
There are several reasons why celebrating accelerates your creating process. Here are a few;
A celebration is different than a party. A party is for having fun, or meeting people. A celebration is also for fun (we dance, feast, and play games), but also has Intent behind it that everyone shares. In this case the Intent is to celebrate what you have manifested or those things for which you are thankful. Even if your manifestation hasn’t yet taken form, by celebrating something you are grateful for, you will accelerate your manifestation process.
I highly recommend you take on the celebration habit. Not only will you empower your manifestation process but you will have a wonderful time doing so.

It’s Sunday today, we arrived on Thursday. As always, the August jungle is hot, humid, thick and captivating. Of course, it feels hotter to me than it has in the past, but no doubt it always feels this way since I am accustomed to the high desert’s arid, hot summers in Santa Fe.
As always, our hotel is larger than life. A glass of Champaign greeted us at the Premier Lobby, one of four lobbies. Our room was a welcome site – air conditioning, a towel elephant with a flower on it, a fruit basket and beach towels ready to go.
So three days have flown by. We attended Troy & Tina’s wedding rehearsal dinner Friday and the wedding Saturday. Tina is looking beautiful, like a soft, gentle goddess and Troy has been cool as a cucumber in his handsome, ragged way. His day has come and one of his biggest dreams has come true. Now that is a sight to see, I wouldn’t have missed this for anything.
The Mayan wedding ceremony was wonderful. Copal smoke sailed by in the ocean breeze as the couple were blessed, bathed (gently) in beans, were given wedding flowers to wear and had their souls blended with flower petals.
There is no arguing it, this is paradise. The all-inclusive hotel provides delectable meals, unlimited drinks and other such amenities to take care of your every need. Attending a wedding here has been magical from the ocean’s breath to the pre-historic-looking birds flying over head and the Mayan sounds at the ceremony.
As if this weren’t enough, I have been receiving many energetic blessings myself. I have a calling to go to a pyramid of Coba where I know I will re-connect with the energy of the past lives I have seen here and with the messages that are meant to guide me in my own journey through life.
I consider myself blessed to live in my flow.

Authetically Selfish LOA
Kalyn, did you say that being Selfish will increase my ability to use LOA (Law of Attraction)?
Yes! Absolutely! However, there is an important detail that you can’t miss here. Being Selfish with a capital “S” will increase your vibration and, therefore, what LOA brings to you. On the other hand, being selfish with a lower case “s” will decrease your vibration and de-enhance the energetic vibration LOA uses in your attracting.
Let’s start by talking about the difference between being Selfish and being selfish:
You need to begin by recognizing that your life, your choices and your feelings can come from one of two places within you; they can come from your authenticity or your preconceived self. By preconceived self I mean that false self or ego self. More specifically I mean that part you that has ideas and beliefs about what should be.
Too many people have a lot of ideas and beliefs that define life and how it ought to work. For example, here in the US people, generally speaking, believe that babies should sleep in cribs by their selves, while in Japan generally speaking, people believe babies should sleep with their parents or grandparents, sharing a bed.
Regardless of where or how you believe babies should sleep, what’s truly important to notice is that the actions we take regarding where we put our baby to sleep can come from our Self, our authenticity, or our self, our preconceived self that is made up of our beliefs. In this example if a mother made her decision from her Self then she would seek out the authentic way to put her baby to sleep. Instead of focusing on her preconceived belief about how society thinks her baby should sleep she would do what was right to her. This means that she would make the choice that fit her present needs and her baby’s. She would make a choice in her Golden Flow ™ such that no matter where the baby slept or who the baby slept with, the mother would feel peaceful, loving and calm, having done the right thing for herself and her joyful baby.
Having made the right choice, she will have activated the energy of her Self. This authentic choice will automatically connect her to her Source Energy, raising her energy and increasing the beneficial things that LOA will now bring into her life.
On the other hand, here in the US a common experience for new mothers happens when she forces herself to leave her child crying in their crib as she closes the door and begins to cry herself, believing that she is doing the right thing by putting the child to sleep alone. Because she has based her choice on information she has been taught in the past, as opposed to her present experience, her concept of what it means to be a good mother is lowering her energetic vibration, which is causing the pain and the crying for her baby and for herself.
Change your thinking to become more Selfish
What is most important in any situation in life is for you to always feel as though you are doing your best and making choices that are beneficial. The only way to do this is to focus on what you need in the now moment. This means placing your authentic Self first, which your past cannot define. People often confuse this with being self-centered and they think that this would mean indulging their whims without considering others.
However, the truth is that being indulgent and careless is not the same as being authentic. Indulgence and self-centeredness are only present when we are basing our thoughts, feelings and beliefs on our past. People only act selfishly and self-centered when painful past experiences are making them feel unloved, therefore they are unwilling to share because they are afraid there won’t be enough for them; when their past experience showed them that people are unfriendly so that they assume the person they are meeting now will be the same way, causing them to hold back. Living from the past this way is what causes anyone to miss the now moment and lose their authenticity.
When you are in the flow of your authenticity you are more concerned with what you are experiencing now: what you need, what your loved ones need or what a situation needs. In your authenticity you are making mature and wise choices.
Coming from the energies of maturity and wisdom can’t help but increase your energetic vibration. Become Selfish, authentic, and the Golden Flow™ of your now moment will connect you to your Source Energy. Your Source Energy is an endless stream of abundance, love and wisdom, and offering this vibration for LOA to attract your life from will create a full and divine life for you.
We seek to bring you that which you desire, as it is that only through living the fulfillment of your desires can you evolve.
If you are thus seeking to increase your vibration in your life, then you seek to improve the energy in your life so that you may realize your hopes, dreams and desires.
To improve or raise the energy in your life, just allow your life to bring to you a problem, a challenge or something that bothers you. Address this with the energy that you desire to raise yourself to and watch your energy increase and your life unfold as you would have it.
In other words, when you address your problem as if you were the you who is living your dreams, as if you were the You who has already realized the life that you desire, then you will address your problems with a higher vibrating energy. Some people think that life brings them “tests” to see if they are ready for the next level. This is untrue, as life only brings you what you asked for.
And what you asked for was your dream, whether you are asking for it consciously or subconsciously. You are always moving in the direction of what you dream of and who you dream of becoming. Life responds by bringing you the energy that you are attracting to yourself, using LOA, through your dream.
When your dreams come to you, knocking on your door, they may look, at first, like a problem or something undesirable. They are not; they are simply the higher vibrating dream you asked for that you simply do not yet recognize, as you are still in the process of raising your energy.
Open the door to your problems and your joys, as they both are a part of the experience of your life that is raising your energy and that is bringing you the life you dream of.”
Kalyn Raphael, The Oracle
I see that for several of my students, and myself, healing has been in the air.
There are cycles in life. Different energies present themselves at different times, facilitating new opportunities, new possibilities. For example, during spring, they say love is in the air. The energy present now lends itself to a time for life healing.
There are two kinds of emotional healing. Self healing is done self-to-self; we can only overcome the issues by bringing love to ourselves. Life healing requires the living of life for us to move through and past our issues. As we experience life and allow both life and ourselves to change, our life experience changes and heals us.
There is a reason we are here having an experience called life and that is so that we live it. Sounds obvious, I know, but people commonly would like to avoid life because it can be a hard and cruel experience. And so, people often do avoid things: how they feel, what they need, feeling unhappy, conflict, love, risk.
The ultimate problem with avoiding life though, is that nothing ever changes. We exhaust ourselves using our will and our energy to keep life at bay, creating a stagnant, un-changing place for ourselves which is outside our Golden Flow (TM), or outside of our Source’s reach.
Despite our resistance, life persists, trying to help us to heal and to evolve. For some of my students it has brought love their way, for others it has brought a new level in life with a new job, a new retirement. They face issues in claiming their own personal power, in coming to know Who they truly are and in learning to be who they are regardless of what happens. Because we, as people, are all connected at energetic levels, it is common for us to go through the same energy, which is experienced according to our own level of development. Thus, I see the same healing energy that my students are going through as I see in a few other people and myself.
My healing flow has come to me in the form of a visit to San Miguel de Allende, or SMA as the locals call it. Being part Mexican, I have spent time in Mexico growing up and this provided many issues for me. As cultures are, this one has its own character and can, unfortunately, be marked by machismo and separation. Growing up I was a “gringa”, an american, so that even visiting relatives never felt familiar. I was taught to be very cautious of people in this large, over-populated city who might want to steal, beg or even kidnap others. I was taught that Mexico, and life, were required being guarded because life could be dangerous, unhealthy, and certainly untrustworthy.
As such, I have learned to be cautious in life: when I lived in Los Angeles and when I visited Mexico I always locked my doors, kept my purse very close to me and glared at strangers who might breach my personal space, let alone smile at me. Truly this closed and cautious mode was hightened still further when visiting Mexico.
My husband, Kris, and I began taking students to the Mayan Caribbean ten years ago, and I quickly saw that this area in Mexico was clean, safe and that I could relax, let my guard down. After all, there are a ton of tourists here, which means that it is basically a safe area, the proof being in all the people I see walking around! I’ve fallen in love with the Mayan Caribbean, how could I not? I have found that I have strong ties to this area that tug at me and open to me.
On a spiritual path, of course, I have taken steps in my self-healing, allowing myself to see as much as possible that was out of my flow and bringing that back into my flow. Yet some pockets within can only be healed through life. And life now finds me here in SMA.
Our month-long trip has been a healing life journey for me. I have come to see that my upbringing messages were meant to protect me, but that they were not completely clear. During this month I have experienced only helpful, nice people. Whether we are asking for directions or asking about lodging, people with very few exceptions, have been people. There is no reason for them to be unkind or opportunistic; instead they have been people living their own lives.
SMA itself has been beautiful and has opened its arms to us. The energetic vortex here has been fabulous, helping one connect with the energy of their Self. Everything has been warm and friendly – the weather, the food, the crickets at night.
I have seen myself, through my fabulous month here, open more in ways I didn’t think were possible. I have seen myself come to a more comfortable level with life, taking the trust to a deeper level yet.
My trip was topped off with an invitation to see a film last night. The film was a documentary, “Lost & Found in Mexico” by Caren Cross. It is a great film exploring why so many ex-pats come to SMA to make a new life for themselves. It was a great film that truly found that many people found the space and time to discover who they truly are, here in SMA. Imagine that! Even the movie was about people finding their life healing here.
What a wonderful thing. When we heal this way in life we can’t help but increase our connection to Source Energy and to improve the energy that we then attract and manifest from. The women who came to the Ladies Intensive, a five day manifesting workshop I lead, had a fabulous time and are feeling the magic of SMA and their Source, as am I. The magic has been so grand that we have planned our next journey to SMA for New Years, when we’ll bring students here and take them on a day trip to Teotihuacan.
So life healing really is in the air. As such, for the new friends that I made, the healing that was done, the wonderful women’s workshop I led and the time with my husband and daughter, I am truly greatful and more healed.

The Oracle has talked about how this is a year of form, meaning that this is a year when we are meant to strengthen ourselves. We always have unseen help (from our guides, our Soul, our Source…), and still do, but at some point we are given some time to try to walk on our own after having had our hand held.
So, this is feeling like a tough year. I have noticed it in myself and in the school my husband, Kris, and I run. Everyone is getting closer to their dreams, but its been tough because we need to become who we truly are by allowing another ray of Source flow into our lives.

In our school this has meant that, for example, one student is working on becoming more connected with his assertive masculine flow. In this way, the relationship he attracted can blossom with him as a more confidant man than he had been in past relationships, which were more co-dependent.
As another example, another student in our school has her own business. She does well with her business but often feels overwhelmed and feels like she works all of the time. She feels like she is missing some time to be with and enjoy herself- and this is true. The ray of Source she is meant to bring forward is of her individuality and her preferences. She needs to connect with who she wants to be and what she desires. When she brings this forward, her business and her life will have more of their own “flavor”, which is her. Truly, her life will have more color and joy.
The beauty of this year is that we aren’t ever left alone and that, even though this may feel like a tough year it probably also feels like a year in which more dreams are possible, because they are.
Here’s to bringing your Source Energy into your life and using this year to make your dreams come true!
If I look in the dark, my world and my life are dark.
If I look up toward the sun, the light illuminates it all. It makes things feel better and it makes more of life seem possible. Even my dreams move from the realm of the possible to the experienced.
Now I dream of the possibility of having an even larger ohana than I do now (ohana is the Hawaiian word for family and we think of ourselves as a spiritual family). I dream of going on journeys with this large family, of growing together, experiencing life together and of watching each member become who they truly are and live the life they are truly meant to live! That is my dream of heaven on earth.
Who you truly are, has it all, is it all.
Who you are has your dreams manifested already. Your Source Energy has no limits–not of things, not of experiences, not of time. Your Source Energy experiences your desires manifest NOW. There is one reasons that you aren’t experience your desires manifest now: You have not yet become the you of your dreams It can take time for you to become Who you truly are, but it doesn’t have to take a long time. Once you allow yourself to be Who you truly are, then the Law of Attraction quickly brings things your way.
Although it takes time for you to change and for your life to catch up, this is a particularly powerful time to become Who You truly Are. It may feel like a tough year, but it is an opportunistic year. This year is meant to fluff your feathers, to get into all of the dark, small spaces where stagnant energy is hiding within you, as it does in us all. No doubt many people will attest to an already challenging year. However, this is required for you to expand.
How does one expand? Simply by moving more of the Source Energy that you are into those stagnant pockets, replacing them with your true self, your Source. In other words, the more of that murky energy that gets stirred up for you, the more you are able to bring your true energy in. We continue to expand and grow through the fulfillment of our dreams, our desires. We continue to energetically get larger and more capable the more we live our dreams. We live our dreams by becoming more of Who We truly Are in life. It is easy to want to avoid life’s challenges and pain, but when we allow these challenges, welcome these challenges, we are given the opportunity to recognize that the challenges are not real. We are what is real. We have the chance to identify ourselves with our what we truly are–Source energy. We then remove the identification with pain. We then are naturally more identified with the Who that lives our dream life.
Ask yourself: What do you dream about? What do you desire? Who do you want to be?
Whether you are seeking to be a lover in a relationship, a creative artist, a business person or whether you are seeking abundance, health or joy, it is all the same. All of these or any of these are within your reach when you become the You of your dream.
Join us on our Dream Cruise, as we flow on the ocean of our Selves. Allow the soothing currents of the great Sea that surrounds us to help you tap into the great Sea within. Join us as we use the Golden Flow System ™ to flow all of the energetic blocks that keep us from being our true, free selves.
Allow yourself to flow. Allow yourself to remove the blocks that bind you. Allow Source to replace these blocks with the energy of Who you truly are. Allow yourself to be uplifted in all ways. And as you do, you will allow your deepest dreams to become manifest.
We look forward to flowing with you as everyone on the cruise becomes who they truly are!
Love & Light,
Kalyn
I’m Dreaming of my next endeavor~
Kris and I are creating a Dreaming Forum, a place for people to take a class on manifesting, to watch the Dreaming video, download classes from the Oracle on Dreaming and a place to share their dreams.
Did you know that people who you share your dreams with, really anything you share, their energy affects your energy and, therefore, your dream? It’s true. Try it: share something -anything, even what you are going to eat for lunch- with a couple of people. You will find that some uplift you, making you feel positive about lunch, while others bring you down, making you feel like your lunch plans aren’t such a great idea.
The same is true of our dreams. Share them with someone who is down or tends to be pessimistic and you may feel that your dreams deflate a bit. On the other hand, when you share your dreams with someone who is also dreaming, your dreams seem to get larger and closer to you!
Dreams are a powerful and important thing to have.
Dreams connect us with our Source Energy;
Dreams guide us through our lives;
Dreams help us become Who we know we truly are.
Your Dreams will use the Law of Attraction to make your dreams come true!
This is why I am so excited about my dream to create a Dreaming Space! Whether you come to my Dreaming Space or whether you share your dreams with other dreamers, focus on your dreams and talk about them all of the time!
