The Chinese New Year - The Year of the Dragon – is under way

Dragons are wonderful mystical creatures that seem to lurk in the shadows of our consciousness until we dare look them in the eyes and tell them that we are ready to play.

What you say? Play with dragons? Isn’t that like playing with fire? Well to answer that, it seems that dragons have many qualities and that there are many types of dragon. My friend Sue Couch tells me that this is the Year of the Water Dragon – one of the 9 major types of Chinese dragons.

But to get to know what dragons really mean to us, we must leave aside stories of tradition and speculation,  and be open to what we might say about these mythical, mystical, and magical creatures.

So let’s walk in unknown territory, with nothing to guide us except what we feel about the landscape through which we are walking, and allow ourselves to become dragons. Stop breathing the air for a moment, telling yourself with each breath that you are only a human. Be aware that you can take on any form that you choose and have any experience that you desire.

Reach into your deep knowing of what a dragon is – and  become it. Embody it. What do you notice? What is different? What are you so filled with, that you perhaps sit in silence for awhile, in order to appreciate the fullness of the moment?

Yes, this year is most definitely under way – and with every dragon breath that we take we can create the living reality of our world to be something super-special. Let this year be filled with exuberance, brilliance, mystery, colour, movement, jaw-dropping amazement and wondrous enchantment … and whatever else the dragon might whisper in your ear!

Listen to a half hour recording of the Quantum Creativity radio show, devoted to this new year and the limitless possibilities of what it is and can be.

The Year of the Dragon – The Age of Dragons

The year 2012, according to the Chinese Zodiac calendar, is the year of the dragon. And in the Chinese Zodiac chart, the dragon is the only legendary creature represented.

Legendary is a key word. It speaks of timelessness and greatness. To think greatness, to breathe greatness, is to evoke greatness everywhere. Acknowledging this greatness stirs and awakens people to their dragon heritage.

The dragon is a symbol of magical power, a keeper of eternal and infinite wisdom, and that which help us to understand things beyond our current range of knowing.

Dragons are our access to the undefinable, the mysterious, the miraculous, the magical, the unseen, and the unknowable. All of which we can accept as true the moment we choose to surrender our personality and accept that we are a powerful force that operates beyond human concepts of time and space.

“What is it that you wish?”, the voice inside us says, “What is your vision of life?” And you smile, for you know that your every thought is a creation of immense power and profound movement. You contemplate your wishes and your visions, and you perceive that they are not personal but are created by all of us from a place of consensus and agreement.

We exist in this timelessness ~ in a fabulous realm of magical possibilities where we are constantly changing our ideas and concepts of what we wish to explore next. We are in an Age of discovering new possibilities. An Age where we live for one another in complete equality and acceptance of one another. An Age of deep and profound understanding that everything has its place. An Age of immeasurable flowering.

Just watch it all unfold and enjoy it. Just see what truly wants to be … and engage with that thread, that stream, that rhythm … that which beckons you to play in this Age of Greatness, this Dragon Age of all we wish to be.

There is an excitement in the consciousness as we approach, what is for many people, a magical time in human history – of 2012 and beyond.

A time that is predicted to herald mass conscious awakening – in which individual goals, individual projects, and individual identities can give way to collective collaborative visions, on an unprecedented scale.

As described in New Reality Transmissions, this coming change has the potential to be a new age of harmony for all peoples, a  future where we play, explore, create and live together as one.

“We need to remember where we come from; to know that we are one. To become conscious of the cosmos within us.” – from the Spirit and Stardust speech by Dennis Kucinich, 2002.

If you had the vision to see into the hearts of stars, you might discern a pattern, a beautiful kaleidoscope of changing images that remind you of intricate mandalas.

When you look at this ever-changing pattern, it triggers a remembrance – that you are from the stars and that you have within you all the potential to seed new stars and new cosmoses – that you are the seed for new patterns and new possibilities for life.

As you open to it, this remembrance sweeps through the consciousness of life and awakens others to this knowing of themselves.

Wherever we look now, there is evidence that the earth-bound patterns of humanity are giving way to cosmic patterns, in which the whole human race is adapting to a rhythm of living that seeks to pay attention to the smallest and subtlest details, in the grandest of designs, for all forms and consciousness of life. A harmonious co-alliance is called into being.

Though we have a fascination for reaching out to the vastness of space and exploring the nature of life on other worlds, we must also be conscious that there is a continual download of energy/information/communication from all reaches of the cosmos.

This contact, whether we are conscious or unconscious of it’s nature, stirs us to examine the potential for life. As if the stars remind us to look into the depths of ourselves and to find there the answers to all questions. The prompting urges us to consider a new future, where global collective action is in all our interests – humans, animals, plants, all forms of life, all possibilities of consciousness.

Does this sense of global contribution and collective action exist only in dreams?

The collective vision speaks to us – “Attune”, it says, “to the potential of our collective future, where we give freely of our skills and energies to source new life together”.

“Align”, it continues, “to the consciousness of the cosmos that flows within all of us, and know that as we let go of all limiting patterns then clarity and vision naturally arises, and we source the impossible life together.”

As we perceive the reality of what we are dreaming then we can choose to go more deeply into the design and value the beauty and artistry that is there – that our eyes can see that, and that we can better live from that loving of what we see in ourselves and in others.

We are in a time of ceaseless new beginnings, where collective conscious vision is the ability to kaleidoscope together, to show us what is unfolding in our collective dream.

Two nights ago I watched an episode from the TV series, “Undercover Boss USA”. Like other programmes in this series and in the UK version, it highlights the unsung employees whose talents are vastly unappreciated and who rarely get the thanks that they deserve from their employers, for being absolutely fabulous and dedicated to their work/co-workers/quality of caring.

In this episode, we watched Joe DePinto, president and CEO of the national chain 7-Eleven visit several stores in his undercover role. He said this to his employees, after his experiences of working undercover- “I did this … that I can better work with you and collectively serve our customers.” And I have to say that this was another of those shows where you reach for the tissues and dab at your eyes.

Later, in bed, I reflected that there is something deeply moving about how people respond when they are valued and appreciated. It seems to me that the time has come for a truly momentous wave of collective caring.  We know enough about energy fields and collective consciousness to generate a collective understanding, about what world collaboration really looks like when we super-connect our visions. The ups and downs of personal drama will then be relegated to the past whilst a new age of vision consciousness emerges.

So – your dreams, hopes and visions are welcome here in the comments section below, or by contacting me directly. Something is building worldwide, around the caring of people, and it’s exciting to be at the forefront of this wave, ready to bring it full on.

I’m proud to declare that I CARE. And with this proclamation I am setting out three awards that you can adopt for your own initiative. This idea was sparked off by watching videos made by The Kindness Offensive and by listening to a talk from one of their team about how they operate. For I know that when we tell people that we care about them, and value what they stand for, then that helps to remind them of their true beingness. And it helps us to remember why we are here.

We are here to be absolutely fabulous, brilliant, imaginative, creative, caring ………….

The “I Love You” award

I LOVE YOU -

for you,
being who you are
and doing what you do.





The “I Want You Close” award

I CARE FOR YOU -

so much that,
I want you close to me,
for you are the most
incredible person that I know.





The “Let’s Jump For Joy” award

LIFE IS FOR CELEBRATING -

so let’s celebrate …
and remember
that my hand
and your hand
are never far apart.




So who are you going to nominate for these awards – and for the awards that you too will create?

My beautiful friend Krista shared her dilemma with me. She wanted to know how to live from a place of strength and have her work be her – all the time.

So I asked her what she is here (in this world)  for. I asked her to speak from the place that cares, not from a place of entanglement and uncertainty but from the place of sureness and unending passion.

I told her, “You’ll be surprised at what you’ll say. Allow the energy to shape your words.” So she stopped monitoring her thoughts and engaged with the energy of what was ready to be declared. This is her declaration.

So we made it here. This year, unlike any other that we have experienced. What did it feel like as you awoke to the new day; what do you experience already in this dreamtime of 2010?

I feel amazed, astounded, captivated and totally satisfied. Enjoying an all over physical delight of being connected to all things. There is a state of certainty now that our future from this moment on is glorious.

We have much to celebrate. The physical changes that are taking place in our race are alerting us to our connectedness. Connectedness to all life in this world – to the energy that dances in the air around us; to the consciousness of those that have died and those waiting to be born; to the intelligence of other forms of life on other worlds; and to the growing awareness of the seeds of possibilities that are germinating in us.

This is a time for inspiring conversation, such as the world has never before witnessed, and a time for magnanimous acts of great kindness and caring. For in the totality of our connection there is only that which is inspired from the desire to create joyously and willingly, with consideration for the greatest good of all.

Do you have a vision for 2010? I have. It is simple and clear. It is dedicated to the growing of our connections within ourselves and to each other. Here’s an extract from a telecall made 2 days ago where my words just tumble out.

“I want people to fall in love with themselves, totally and completely. Quite often people ignore themselves and I want them to realise their value … to think about themselves as a gift, as a gift to the whole race.

If every person saw themselves as a gift, that they brought their full measure of contribution forward and really burst open the cells of all their own restrictions, I’m sure people would come into love with themselves and be full of such jubilation and joy that they wouldn’t stop.

They would be so animated, so energised, so full on … wanting to live, wanting to give people everything they have … that they find that in the sense of giving they are actually receiving themselves, over and over and over again.

So for me 2010 is about this beautiful gift of people to themselves and to be able to celebrate life in the most gorgeous of ways. Being conscious of our physicality, loving our bodies and relishing who we really are, and what we really see of ourselves.

For me, the inner vision is the most important thing. If you have the inner vision then you have yourself, in life, living life, creating the reality of beauty, of grace, of abundance, of luxuriant living – and you realise you have it all already. And now is the time to bring it on and really celebrate it in its fullest.”

Now please add your vision and/or dedication for 2010 in the comment box below.

After posting my dedications for the year, I thought it would be useful for the readers of this blog (yes, you!) to know what’s energetically involved in making dedications that actually work out as intended.

Now a dedication is quite distinct from an affirmation or intention. To me, an affirmation is a spiritual statement that says ‘I’m not yet living what I believe to be true’. Similarily, an intention says to me ‘this is what will happen some time in the future – but not now’. They lack power. Do you feel that?

But a dedication has power and bite to it. It says ‘I’m ready to live this now … I have the energy for it … this is what’s so’. See what I mean? There’s no room for ambiguity or half-heartedness.

So, best foot forward, to energetically get to the place where things really do happen, you need to have the following -

• some passion or desire for achieving something of great value to you (perhaps writing that book!)
• an alignment to what you are all about (no sense in wanting to be a rock star if you don’t dig rock!)
• a readiness for action (being proactive and alert to possibilities that fulfill your dedication)
• the moxie to stand in the power of who you are all the time – making things happen

People with energy sensitivity will realise that to stand in the power of something means that you are the energy source for the idea, project, enterprise, or whatever else is your creation. When you are the source of something then the energy that radiates out from you contains the essence of your creation. That’s why it’s easy to tune into someone and say what it is that they are passionate about – you can literally feel their presence.

You probably realise now that a dedication is a statement that tells people what you are working on. When you put your energy into a dedication then you create the reality that you wish to live. You are your energy – a pulsing living creation. When you are congruent with yourself (all your thoughts and actions aligned to what you wish to live) then everything moves into its rightful place.

Are you rededicating your life right now?

To start off the New Year my wife and I sat down with a flipchart and decided what we’d like for 2009.

We don’t do resolutions – ours are more along the lines of dedications – as we know that you need the energetic feel of what you want to create, rather than stick some nice ideas on paper that get forgotten by the next day.

Here then are my dedications for this year … and I’m sure that I’ll be coming back to this post to tick them off, one by one.

1. To be more publicly known for what I love to do … writing, teleclasses, coaching, energy work.
2. To have people value what they have, love who they are, and feel passionate about what they do.
3. To have people get a clear understanding of how reality creation can work for them.
4. To have a glorious adventure that engages me full on.
5. To invent new ways of doing things and explore my creativity more deeply.
6. To have people experience a greater depth of loving.
7. To write a second book.

Nothing too far-fetched here – all of it’s possible. But I’d better get on with the book writing, as I can procrastinate at times!! My point though in writing this post is that there is power behind these dedications.

First you consider what you wish to do, then you create the energy space in which it can all happen, and finally you live the experience.

Simple, yes? So what are your dedications for 2009?

The things that matter most to me are what life and the art of living is all about, without which there would be no point at all in staying here in this world, pretending to be interested in this extraordinary creation.

These are my writings with pictures, videos and sounds, that support my love of this stunning world and its amazing people. For without us things just don’t have zing!
