My Celtic Goddess Journey Unveiled



A few days before I left the States for my goddess journey to Ireland, I had an important download from my ancestors. I was supposed to listen to a recorded call from my Year of Miracles program that dealt specifically with ancestral clearing and forgiveness. It was a call done by energy worker John Newton, and it was fantastic. He created a specific and powerful forgiveness prayer that encompasses every negative thought, emotion, word, or action and clears it from ourselves and our ancestors. That's my kind of clearing! As I listened to it, I knew that I was supposed to print it, bring it with me on my trip, and use it while I was in Ireland. And so I did. That little piece of paper was more powerful and energy-shifting than I could have possibly imagined.

My first stop in Ireland was at Glendalough in the Wicklow Mountains (above photo) and it was sunny! (It was actually sunny and warm for almost 2 weeks! The famous "heat wave" of Ireland). It is a well-preserved ancient Celtic Christianity site founded by St. Kevin in the 6th Century. It includes one of the best examples of the round tower (with a roof) built by the ancient monks, a church, graveyard, and other buildings from the monastic settlement.

I walked through the museum explaining the history of the settlement and was very saddened to hear that it had been burned, attacked, and pillaged numerous times throughout history, and many records were lost and monks were killed in the process. One of the most ferocious of the attacks came from the Vikings, which I found to be common everywhere I went throughout Ireland. As I read about the Viking attacks, it was like an illuminated light bulb went on over my head. I was getting direct revelation of how my goddess journey was to unfold, and I KNEW what I had to do.

I walked outside to the site, put my hands on the stones of the round tower and "asked" the stones to tell me their stories and show me images from their past. As expected, the energy that I felt and the images I saw were heavy and sad and wanted to be cleared. I pulled out my forgiveness prayer and read it aloud with the intention of clearing all negative feelings and energies resulting in the interactions between the Vikings and monks, and anything else that needed clearing. Amazing!! So THIS is what a Celtic goddess healing journey can look like! This was also the closest thing to 'time traveling' that I'd ever done, and it was thrilling!

After I read the prayer and did the clearing, I put my hands on the stones again and gave thanks to God and all high vibration beings who helped me in the healing. The energy I felt was so much lighter and beautiful, and the magical qualities of this ancient place of faith were able to shine through and overwhelm me to tears.

I sat on the grass and put my hands on the blessed land of Ireland and had an intense few minutes of connection and gratitude as I anticipated the powerful undertakings about to transpire. Ireland and I would be one, and I would be a key player in healing centuries of pain, death, and darkness that this country has suffered under. I was almost speechless. I'm just one individual from a far away place myself, but here I was back in the lands of my ancestry where time stands still, and I was providing this much needed and all-important healing work. I was humbled, excited, and totally blown away. WOW.

I knew that history has seen many others who have been called to Ireland to do similar things, and now I would be joining the ranks of all Celtic pilgrims, saints, and healers, who are all my heroes. But for me, it was also hitting a personal note, since I would be a part of the healing for my very own Irish ancestors. My friends, when you talk about following your bliss, making a difference, leaving a legacy, and becoming one with God, I just can't think of a better way to spend your days than doing what I was about to do! And just like the word featured in the photo above, this would be a powerful journey indeed.

My Grand Entry into Ireland- the Miraculous Tale

It's hard to believe, but the "official" goddess journey year has come to an end. That went really fast and was FULL of amazing adventures, lessons, miracles, magic, and awakenings. I loved it!! I returned from my 6 weeks of traveling through Ireland (pictured above) and Israel earlier this month and now it's time to embark on the next phase of my goddess path, which I will explain in later posts.

In late April, after 3 days of trying to fly standby and being awake for 60 straight hours, I finally arrived on Irish soil. I thought the hard part was over, but no!

I was detained at immigration for about 30 harrowing, nail-biting minutes being interrogated as to why I didn't have a work visa nor travel insurance since I was going to work on a farm. In my defense, I am a very rule-abiding person and I researched the circumstances I would have beforehand and was convinced I would need neither a work visa nor insurance. Nor did the woman I was staying with inform me I needed them, and she had had many people come help her for years, so she was experienced. I was sure I was following Irish laws, but apparently I misunderstood. I sincerely apologized to the officer, and asked if I could get a work visa and insurance on the spot, and was told no, very meanly. Panic started to settle in.

The immigration officer called the woman I would be staying with and basically chewed her out, told her that she and I were purposefully deceiving him, made some notes in his computer on her (uh oh!), and told her the bad news: I would not be admitted entrance into Ireland and would be on the next plane back to the States.

WHAT?! Heart attack time. I couldn't believe that I was being treated like some dangerous criminal or something. (He was really quite harsh with me). My mind just couldn't process what was happening. I felt like I was in the Twilight Zone. I have been traveling my whole life, and this was the first time anything like this had ever happened. The dark forces really didn't want me to complete this goddess journey, and they were fighting hard!

I addressed Heavenly Mother calmly, "Heavenly Mother?? If you really want me to undertake this goddess journey, now would be an excellent time for a miracle. Just saying..."

Then I quickly made the decision to accept whatever happened, knowing it would be in my highest good. That meant accepting the potential loss of thousands of dollars already spent on my travel arrangements for the next six weeks. That meant accepting the fact that I had just spent 3 days trying to get to Ireland, and it was for nothing, and I'd have to fly back home empty-handed. That meant losing my flight benefits on the airline I flew on (or so immigration told me). And that meant sadly and tragically, that this goddess journey that I, and my ancestors, had been planning and anticipating for an entire year was not to be. That's a lot to accept in 30 seconds, but I knew I had to surrender it all. (Thanks to previous lessons on my goddess journey!)

Then I heard Heavenly Mother speak to me. "Don't worry, everything will be fine. All is perfect."

Suddenly the immigration officer changed his mind out of nowhere. WHAT?! He said that he would let me into Ireland if I would promise to get travel insurance immediately and that next time I came to work on a farm in Ireland, I would get a work visa. Then he took my picture (I was wearing my shocked face) with his official camera (because I was obviously a threat to the nation of Ireland) and waved me on while I thanked him and wore my deer in the headlights look. Thank you! Wait, what just happened?

What had happened is that I had just witnessed a miracle take place before my very eyes. Wow. A part of me wondered if this was really happening or if it was some elaborate trap to set me up or something. It was all too bizarre. #twilightzonethoughts

I wanted to cry. I wanted to fall to my knees on that cold hard tile floor under those harsh fluorescent lights where photos aren't allowed, and pour my heart out to God in thankful cathartic sobs for what just happened. I had been surrounded by darkness and it definitely appeared they were going to win, but the light had won in the end! Huzzah! Praises be to God Almighty for miracles!

It was hard not being able to share this with anyone in that moment, but at least God knew my heart, and my overwhelming, sincere gratitude. I sat down on the ground and as tears rolled down my cheeks, I breathed sighs of relief, grounded myself, and said silent prayers of relief and thankfulness until I gained my composure, which was easier said than done. I had been ultimately rocked to the core, but I heard my inner voice tell me, it was all in the name of raising to higher levels and vibrations.

Then I pulled out my laptop and bought travel insurance for the duration of my time in Ireland. I am a woman of my word. Then I emailed my farm host and told her I was coming after all, details to follow.

I picked up my baggage, an Irish sim card, some Euro, and my car rental, learned really quickly how to drive on the the left side of the road for the first time, activated my life-saving gps on my phone, prayed I could stay awake and alert for the next 12 hours and...

...let the adventures unfold... Helloooooooo Ireland!!!

To be continued...

My Year of Miracles

Well once again 3 months have gone by since I've written a post and a lot has happened during that time! Here are some highlights:

1. My 'WASSAP' trip around the world got canceled because (despite my pristine credit) I didn't get approved for the loan I needed. When I prayed about why that is, I got the answer that a spiritual journey like this needs to be funded from something higher than a bank. And also since I have no debt energy around me, a loan just doesn't fit with my vibration. Well well, although these things make sense, I was devastated for a few days. Then I was inspired to whittle the trip down to just 2 countries, the 2 that had been calling me in the first place: Ireland and Israel. So if all goes well I'll take off in May for about 6 weeks! AND I will be using my 'Spiritual Journey Fund' of cash which I've been saving for the past 9 months that will cover my expenses. It's my spiritual journey piggy bank, and it's time to bust it open!

2. I moved to San Diego! After living in Salt Lake City for 3 amazing years, my heart told me to move on. I now live 25 minutes from the beach pictured above, which I have visited several times and is always a place of deep healing and therapy for me. I never would have guessed the symphony of elements on a beach would call to me in such a profound way. My move was temporary at first, but after being here for 2 months now, I have decided I want to live here permanently. At the same time, I honor and thank Utah for helping me become the person I am today. It was nothing short of transformative.

3. I started a year long program for 2015 called "Your Year of Miracles", which has been amazing. This is what I want to focus on in this post. This is more vulnerable than I've gotten with my personal life before, but this feels like the subject I'm drawn to write about now.

Beginning in January, participants in this program were to focus on 3 'miracle intentions' they'd like to see manifest during 2015. The group mentors said that this year is especially powerful for manifesting miracles and I'm already feeling it! It wasn't hard at all to come up with my 3. Two of them are miracle intentions that I've been wanting to manifest basically my whole life. The third one is something I've been wanting since last summer. Here they are:

1. Be married to the love of my life, the beautiful perfect man for me.
2. Be pregnant with our first child.
3. Have perfect health, but especially a totally healed shoulder and other specific areas that need help.

I would say that I have very good health, but my shoulder has been a mystery to me. It seems that I woke up one day last summer and all of the sudden, I felt like my shoulder had sustained a mysterious injury. I was baffled. I couldn't (and still can't) move it up or back without serious pain. It was like it was suddenly frozen, and I felt partially disabled. Things that I could do so easily without thinking (put on a seat belt, get dressed etc) were now tedious and painful chores. Humbling to say the least. I've done everything I could think of to help my poor shoulder, from energy work to releasing trapped emotions, to every herbal remedy I could find. Nothing has helped, and in fact, over the months, it has gotten worse. 

Thankfully, I finally 'talked' to my shoulder to find out what it's trying to teach me and I have gotten some direction, which I'm now actively working on. It's very complex and perhaps even multidimensional (past life?), and I don't know how long the healing will take. But this is why it got on my 'miracle intentions' list, because I definitely want a miracle of healing, and I'm already seeing the beginnings of such.

Now to address miracle intention 1 and 2. We are all looking for life of joy and fulfillment. Each of us feels fulfilled in different ways. For some, this is found through becoming a famous motivational speaker who has written tons of books. For others, it's through working with at-risk youth, and the list goes on and on. Then there are those of us, like myself, that know without a doubt that the only true fulfillment for me is being married to my beloved partner and together raising a family with God and Christ at our center. This is something I couldn't deny, even if I wanted to.

I've never felt complete fulfillment or joy from my careers (although some have definitely been better than others, and have taught me a lot!), and to be honest, I've never felt I fit in to the work world very well. I love traveling more than anything, but when I come back home after 1 or 2 weeks, that familiar emptiness greets me at my door and I know I've only succeeded in temporarily filling the void with that amazing vacation. (But I always love the vacation!) I do love service, in fact 'acts of service' is one of my love languages, but my heart yearns to serve within my own family unit as well. What it comes down to is that at my core, I know I am not complete, and until I am together with my husband and children, I will be continually striving for this blessing of fulfillment. And because I choose to listen to my heart, I know it's leading me in the right direction for my highest good.

That isn't to say that I'm not happy, because I'm blissfully happy and I love my life and myself. I'm grateful for all the miraculous abundance in my life in all forms, and I acknowledge God's hand in all of it. I just happen to know that God intended more for me, and I look forward to that chapter in my life. Why not start that chapter in 2015? Why not manifest these miracles this year? I say, let's do it!

Fortunately I have learned great patience in my wait for my partner, and I have also learned how to trust, let go of expectations, and truly learn to love single life and be happy in the present moment instead of wrongly assuming that something "in the future" will make me happy. Especially in the past few years, I have had the opportunity to explore my spiritual gifts and goddess self only because I'm single, so I'm eternally grateful for this beyond words! The time and lessons I've had as a single person have been invaluable, perfect, and show the wisdom of an omniscient, merciful God. I am sincere when I say I wouldn't trade my single years for anything, and I love them, honor them, and I am deeply grateful for them.

But I'm ready for a change...

I'm ready to take on brand new challenges and learn new lessons (relationship, marriage, children, family), grow together with someone in every possible way, serve within a family, and feel and give that "true love" that we all desire. I'm ready to show God and the universe that I've learned every single lesson I was supposed to learn as a single person and now I'm prepared to show my stuff within a unified partnership and family. I'm ready to take it to the next level and fulfill my life's purpose, which I've known since I was a little girl. I'm ready to become goddess Rebecca on a new playing field, with just a few more players added. :) 

This is my year of miracles, and it's your year of miracles too!! We are all connected in beautiful powerful ways. Let the love and miracles be abundant between us all as we all live the lives of our dreams.
