What lies hidden within our own darkness springs to life when our inner light begins to radiate illumination. Darkness conceals truth; by allowing in the light, we begin to grow, and our true potential starts to shine.

In the beginning, there was only darkness. Then light was born, gradually dissolving the emptiness that engulfs the soul. This is the illumination of spirit, a powerful expression of unbiased, nonjudgmental, and unconditional love. It is your brilliance that begins to breathe life into the void of space.

Illumination begins at birth, moving from the darkness into the light. In Italian, the phrase for "giving birth" is dare alla luce, which translates as "to give to the light." How beautiful it is to welcome a new soul and offer it to the light.

Depending on the path we choose after birth, we may lose our sparkle, growing up following others’ dreams, expectations, and limitations. Yet as the soul begins to remember, our inner light starts to crack the walls of darkness.

As we embrace illumination, bringing the hidden into light, we begin accepting and welcoming more positivity. Through this new energy, truth and hope start to flow into our lives.

With spiritual awakening comes the journey of self-discovery and personal growth.

We begin to cultivate the courage to face our own darkness and confront life's challenges. This inner journey allows us to seek our unique spiritual truths and opens a new, exciting perspective on our existence.

While embracing the light, a shift occurs: we begin living with more positive interpretations and discover a resilient way to navigate difficult moments, emerging stronger and wiser. Living in the light, we find a deeper connection with the divine spark within, and we begin to experience profound self-love and inner truth.

Self-discovery calls us to look deeply into the shadows, to release lifetimes of trauma, let go of negative thought patterns, and replace them with inner peace and love. We begin to uncover our authentic self. Finding our deepest purpose awakens a sense of alignment. As this purpose comes to life, we begin to act in harmony with it, guided by innate inner wisdom.

It may feel like a light being switched on, or like a cosmic click, so to speak. This awakening is felt in the very center and deepest part of our pain. It rises from a place that had long been dormant or asleep, now awakened as the dawn begins to rise. As purpose guides you, you feel completely present. Outside distractions no longer pull you away.

Your focus is pure and clear. You begin hearing your inner voice, leading you to a blessed inner peace, eliminating anxieties and doubts. As our light guides our path, we experience self-love, self-compassion, and self-forgiveness. We step into our personal power, and a brilliant light radiates outward from us.

In biblical times, people were depicted with halos, their luminous aura seen by those around them. They glowed. It is said that a pregnant woman glows. What if, in carrying a new soul, her joy is amplified and the light within the baby joins hers, so deeply that even the average person can sense it?

Let your illumination guide you. Let it embrace you. Let it shine for all the world to see.

I know I came to this planet at this time to assist the souls who are just beginning to rise from the darkness and seek their own light. I shine my light to illuminate their path.

Every Tuesday evening, I host a heart-centered meditation at my center in Mesa, Arizona, which I call the Open-Heart Meditation. During this session, I guide the group into the depths of our heart’s center, filling it with joy as we allow it to expand and vibrate faster and faster. Through this practice, we embrace our true essence as beings of light.

If you’re in the Phoenix or Mesa area, I warmly invite you to join us. Feel free to reach out and become part of our Open-Heart Meditation community.
