Here is a great way to clear blocked energies. Doing this will help to re-start your work and activity...

​Many a times we find that if there is stagnant, negative or blocked energies in our home or around us (on person), then it can lead to not just stalled progress but also 'picked on' sad mood or even ill health!!

In the last few years, there have been so many wildfires all over the world!! We, in Canada experienced some really terrible ones in 2003, where almost 12% of our beautiful parklands in the Kootenay mountains were scorched down to ashes!! 

Why I am writing about this is- recently I came upon one of my hiking journal entries from back in October of 2015. We had gone into the Kootenays to check out the new growth that had started to take place. As the photo shows- the beautiful little saplings had started to take on their form- with the promise of one day becoming grand and magnificent again- like how they used to be. 
​
It was such an inspiring experience to not only feel the pristine energy of these new pine trees but also see them start to thrive again where the ground still was covered in the ashes of their predecessors!!

Life is like that in many ways- we speak of transformation and being like the phoenix. But we need to remember that for new to grow, what is old, what was previously there must get burnt down… and that can be a very painful (dreadful) experience indeed.   (You may want to check out-   Welcoming 2021 with a renewed sense of purpose and exuberance .  Even though it speaks about welcoming 2021, its message holds true for all time.)

Change by its very inherent nature tends to be unsettling to our “security-seeking” life-approach. But when we remember that the very word Samsara, which is the Sanskrit word for our living world, means Change- we realize that change is not only required, but it is inevitable. Change is what allows us to grow and thrive… to constantly evolve and adapt- as if we are in some kind of a game. It is no wonder that in the Vedic tradition, our daily living, our world is compared with a “Game of Life”.

In this past year- it seems like people everywhere are getting angrier day by day- and many are wondering about this world that we are living in!! Even though at the surface level, we may feel a bit sad or even a little apathetic at times- being couped up in the house or being concerned about the world or personal economic situation- It is very important to remember the good that was and will continue to be.

Destruction and re-creation are part of the natural cycle- this is the cycle of time- called Kaal Chakra by the ancient Vedic seers. Literally, it means the Wheel of Time and it indicates the 'Circle of Life'. It reminds us that though we experience time in a linear manner, in reality- the expression of time in our lives and our deeper experience of it in our life has a cyclical pattern to it.

And though experiencing change can be a painful experience, when we keep our focus on the good that has been and will again be- it makes it easier for us to bear a ‘painful present’ life-situation.

After a beautiful Friday, Saturday started with mucky weather in Calgary. Rain, snow and maybe some sleet! So, it was a perfect day to get out into the Kootenays! It was warmer and thankfully no rain or snow... We conducted three short hikes. First to Marble Canyon, second to Paint Pots and third was Fireweed Trail along the continental divide between Alberta and BC. All these places are not just gorgeous, but their history and geography really blows one's mind!

Almost 12% of the Kootenays was burned in a terrible fire in 2003- caused naturally from several lightning strikes. It was great to see nature at work- where new growth was growing from the ashes of the old!

Feels like I left a piece of my heart back in our parks. Cannot wait to go back...

We are all looking for loving and fulfilling relationships, but how many people truly take stock of all the people in their life. It could be our phone contact list or our social media network. We all tend to have many contacts on our phone that have been there for years on end- where we have neither touched base with them nor have, they contacted us!!

Now I do understand that social media network has different dynamics- though frankly speaking we should a give our social-network a good re-look as well, particularly if you use social media only to keep in touch with friends and family- i.e., you do not use it for professional reasons.

Everything in our “sphere of reference” takes up some energy from us. This is the reason that all Feng Shui, Vaastu and other spatial energy experts- ask us to declutter and remove old and un-used things from our life!! 

But what about the people in our life?? Do we really take the time and make the effort to give a “clear look” to all the people in our life… to ensure that those who surround us are the very type of people that we really want to be hanging around us. If we do not do that, then there will be un-checked toxic and/or stagnant people who will continue to be within our sphere of reference- sapping energy and vitality from us!!

Here is something I like to periodically do in my life- particularly at the start of the year, on my birthday and other personally relevant days.
​

• I will go thru my phone list and check out all my personal contacts.
• If it is someone that I have not spoken to or interacted with for some time, then I will send them a quick note (email/text) or give them a quick “hello-call”.
• If we are able to get in touch and rejuvenate our connection, then great. I keep that personal contact on my phone.
• But, if I find that the person did not bother to reply or that there was no meaningful re-connection, then mentally I wish them well, thank them for the time that we did know/interact with each other and then delete their contact information. I remove them not just from my phone-list but also from my mental space and sphere of reference. 

Doing this allows me to keep a clean and clear ‘relationship doorway’ in my life.

This not only ensures that I don’t clog up my ‘personal space’ with uninterested/dis-engaged/toxic folks, but it also gives me a chance to set forth a heart-felt intension out into the universe that- “I am grateful for all the people that it has sent me and that by clearing up my surroundings, I have created the ‘space’ to have new, more meaningful relationships and connections in my life. That I am willing and ready to welcome new, wonderful people in my life.”

Hope you take some time out this new year- to clear up your people-space and make way for new, loving and caring relationships in your life.

We all know that in order to succeed at anything- it is not just about knowing the right skills or being in a suitable situation, but it is the timing of an event. As they say- it is very important to be at the right place, at the right time!! 

But then again, most of us are not very familiar and do not have easy access to esoteric sciences like astrology and so on. So, how can we still benefit from this?
​
I have written about this in length with all the Vedic information details in couple of articles in the Vedic Wisdom blog but given the importance of this information- I wanted it to reach a wider audience, so I am posting the key Abhijeet Hora timing information here, on this general blog. I will spare you all the Vedic Astrology details- as the casual non-familiar reader.   :-)

​If you would like more information on Abhijeet Nakshatra, then check out What is the Abhijeet Nakshatra? Understanding the power of the Abhijeet Nakshatra- to become the Final and Supremely Victorious One!!

This is what you need to do: check online for a Panchang- it is a Vedic calendar. It may seem very daunting, but don’t worry- I will tell you what exactly it is that you need to look for… then it gets easy.

For ease of use, I tend to use Drik Panchang, but frankly you can use any application that provides correct hora (time-segment) calculations.

• Next- make sure that it reflects the location that we are physically present. Most of these applications have some Indian city as their default location. Be sure to change it to your location.
• Then next look for the Daily Panchang section. By default, many of these applications show monthly Panchang.
• Finally- look for the section that says Muhurta (loosely translated to ‘timing’). Here, look out for Abhijeet Muhurta. Viola- as simple as that. The time span it provides is the Abhijeet hora segment of the day. Now, if you are someone who needs to do some work during the night, particularly in our globally connected economy, then look out for Nishita Kaal. This is the Abhijeet hora segment for the nighttime.
• You will find that the Abhijeet hora usually lasts for around 48 minutes or so- but depending on if it is summer or winter (i.e., longer, or shorter days) it will expand or contract this hora time.

Now try to initiate important activity during this time. For e.g., you want to register a new domain name for your online shop, or you are going over to meet a potential client for the first time then- you can do it during these times.
​
This way, irrespective of many other cosmic-energetic challenges that could be present on that day, you will be able to carry out your activity at the “best possible time”. 

Now keep in mind that Abhijeet muhurta is not good for all activities and also on Wednesday, it forms a ‘not-so-nice’ sticky aspect.

​So, if what you are planning is a very important life activity like marriage or moving homes etc. then it is advisable to obtain a more professional opinion from someone who is familiar with finding favorable muhurta- but for simple, practical help with timing events and for most part (minus Wednesday), you should be able to utilize the power of the Abhijeet nakshatra (lunar constellation) to attain victory and success in your endeavors.

Rock salt has been known to absorb negative energies and has been used from ancient times to clean our auras, home and surroundings.

Here are three remedies to help rid your house of negative energies and create a protective shield around your living space…

1. You can dissolve some rock salt in the water that you use to mop your floor, this will remove not just the dirt off the floors but also give it an energetic cleanse and shield!  (Practical caution: test to ensure that salt will not chemically react with your floor material.)
2. Keep some rock salt in a glass bowl in a corner of your room, particularly your home office, bedroom and bathroom. Flush off the salt every month and replace with fresh rock salt. This will help to absorb any new negative energies and freshen up your living space.
3. Sprinkle some rock salt in the four corners of each room in your house and also the four corners of your house. This will create a protective energy shield around your home.

Rock Salt protective remedies are best initiated on Saturdays and/or Tuesdays and during the dark phase of the moon, i.e. during the time from full moon to new moon. But if you believe there are negative energies in your surroundings then you can initiate the remedies right away and conduct the rock salt replacement on these suggested days.

Using Rock Salt in this manner is an ancient time-tested cleansing and protective remedy in many cultures. We hope you will find these techniques very helpful in creating a relaxing and joyful living space.
