The Seven Sisters

Guardians of Benevolence

Yesterday, as I sat with my canvas, I felt a quiet but insistent call — an invitation to paint with the intention of Benevolence.

I didn’t know what would emerge; it was only that this piece needed to hold the vibration of love in its most generous and unconditional form.

As the layers built — red, gold, and soft blue — seven figures began to reveal themselves. They appeared not through conscious design but as if they had been waiting beneath the surface, ready to be seen. When I stepped back, I felt an almost electric knowing:

These were the Seven Sisters.

A Celestial Memory

The Seven Sisters have appeared in countless stories across cultures — as the Pleiades, guardians, mothers, guides of light and wisdom. Seeing them take form on my canvas stirred a deep remembrance in me. I recalled my dream many years ago, where a rather large John Lennon was stretched out like the reclining Vishnu. 

It was a succinct dream that had a clear message. He turned his head, looked me straight in the eye, and said, “You are one of the Seven Sisters”, so when they appear in my painting, a quiet grace, a sense that they are not distant beings but kin, intimately connected to the awakening of the sacred feminine on Earth.

Their energy felt maternal, but not in the limited sense of human mothering. This was Mothering as a divine archetype — expansive, protective, and benevolent. They reminded me of the Holy Mothers, the Marys, and the Queens of Benevolence I write about in The Living Goddess Code.

The Holy Mothers and the Mary Lineage

As I painted, I felt the presence of the Marys — Mary the Mother, Mary Magdalene, and the holy feminine lineage that holds the codes of sovereignty, compassion, and restoration. These archetypes are not bound by history or dogma; they are living frequencies that flow through time, calling us back to our original wholeness.

The reds in the painting speak of the sacred womb, the place of creation and transformation. The golds glow with divine light and the holy. The blue veils feel like the etheric bridge between the earthly and the celestial — a reminder that we are always held, always guided.

Benevolence as a Living Code

Benevolence is more than kindness. It is an active, strengthening energy that heals, restores, and harmonises. It asks nothing in return because its wholeness is made visible.

As the painting was completed, I understood that these Seven Sisters — these guardians, these mothers, these holy queens — had offered themselves as an invocation of benevolence for all who encounter them. Their presence feels like a sacred vigil for humanity, holding space as we collectively remember our light.

A Sacred Month

We are in the Month of the Sacred Mother — a time to honour the holy feminine, listen for her whispers, and notice where she asks to be embodied in our lives. That timing was no accident. This painting, this transmission, belongs to this moment of awakening.

I share this now because I feel these Seven Sisters, these Holy Mothers, are not just for me — they are a reminder for all of us:

That we are loved beyond measure.
That we are guided, even when we feel lost.
That benevolence is our birthright, and our gift to the world.

May their presence bless you as they have blessed me.

Becoming Your Own Authority

Expression of Your Higher Purpose

There is an energy beneath all things — the Unified Field, the divine intelligence that is connected to every star, every cell, every soul. It doesn’t choose sides or judge; it simply reflects and magnifies the frequency you are holding. What you embody becomes the vibration that the universe responds to, amplifies, and mirrors back to you.

This is why the path of a Living Avatar — the path of coherence and embodiment — is both powerful and liberating. It calls us to step into sacred discipline: not the striving of an enslaved mindset, but the steady devotion of alignment.

Only the disciplined are truly free.

Not disciplined in the sense of busyness or endless self-improvement, but disciplined in presence — in choosing, moment by moment, to return to wholeness.

When your body, mind, and spirit move in harmony, you step into the frequency of your Higher Purpose Avatars — the archetypal expressions of your divine potential. And from this space of coherence, the Unified Field begins to meet you with clarity, guidance, and grace.

Embodiment Over Information

The Living Avatar Code teaches that wisdom is not meant to remain an idea; it is meant to be lived.

In a world saturated with information, it’s tempting to mistake knowing about something for becoming it. But only embodiment transforms frequency. Only embodiment shifts your field so the universe can magnify your truth instead of your wounds. When you embody your Higher Purpose Avatars, you are no longer seeking validation outside of yourself. You are standing in the living memory of who you have always been — radiant, free, and whole.

Interrupting the Old Cycle

Here’s what I know for sure: when you are experiencing resistance or a reaction, the best thing to do is quickly and quietly switch it to a revelation. What it’s showing you is the depth of the emotional and hormonal addiction — an old pattern, and addiction of how deeply it has been entwined into your life.

When you step into a new timeline and begin to embody your Higher Purpose Avatars as a whole, these old patterns may rise to the surface at first. Not to shame or blame you, but to offer you choice and your freedom.

You may have done some inner work to dissolve a karmic imprint that caused the emotional addiction, but the body — with its chemical and hormonal wiring — may still echo the old cycle.

And so, like with any addiction, awareness becomes the key. In each moment, you are offered the sacred invitation to choose again and again—until the new path becomes your truth, and the old path dissolves into nothingness.

Living as a Conscious Creator

This is the essence of the Living Avatar Code:

  • To embody your Higher Purpose Avatars, not just understand them.
  • To choose resonance over reaction, even in moments of challenge.
  • To release what you cannot control, and to focus on the vibration you wish to magnify.

This is how you move from information to transformation and from seeking to seeing.

Wholeness Is Your Freedom

When you are whole — when the body, mind, and spirit move as one — you become your own authority. You no longer seek permission from the world outside you. You no longer chase, strive, or compete.

And in that space of radiant coherence, the Unified Field responds. It reflects your wholeness back to you, magnifying it in ways both subtle and miraculous. Opportunities open. Relationships align. Life begins to flow with the quiet certainty that you are exactly where you are meant to be.

This is the living expression of Karma, to your Path of Dharma. This is the frequency of your Living Avatar: not a future state, but a present embodiment.

Princess Diana: 28 Years On

The Goddess Archetype

The 31st of August, is a day many of us pause to remember the life of Diana, Princess of Wales — 28 years since that fateful night in Paris, yet her presence remains profoundly alive in our collective heart. She was more than a royal, more than a fashion icon, more than “the People’s Princess.” Diana embodied an archetype so potent, so timeless, that her story continues to move through us like a living myth: the goddess Diana, protector of the vulnerable, fiercely independent, radiant yet untethered.

Even in her name, there was a destiny. Diana — the Roman goddess of the hunt, the moon, and the wild — a figure of freedom, compassion, and a deep connection to the natural and spiritual worlds. And like her namesake, the Princess could not be confined. She played the roles the world demanded — wife, mother, royal — but she remained, at her essence, unclaimed. Her soul spoke louder than protocol.

The Archetype of the Protector

Diana’s humanitarian work revealed the purest aspect of this archetype. She walked into places that others feared — AIDS wards, leprosy clinics, and the scarred landscapes of landmine fields. With her simple presence and unwavering gaze, she extended to the marginalized what they had been denied: dignity. This was not performance; it was dharma. A sacred duty that arose from her soul, reminding us that love and compassion are the highest forms of power.

The Untamed Spirit

Yet, there was also the wild Diana, the independent force that refused to be silenced or neatly contained. She sought authenticity in a world built on performance. That longing for freedom — to love as she wished, to live as she felt — revealed a universal human ache: to be wholly seen and wholly free. This is why so many of us recognized ourselves in her struggles and triumphs; she was both goddess and everywoman.

From Princess to Avatar

Perhaps what makes Diana’s story archetypal is that she transcended her own life. Through the lens of myth, we see how she became an avatar of the Divine Feminine in a modern era — an icon of courage, vulnerability, and compassion. In her humanity, she illuminated a pathway for others to rise, to love more deeply, and to give more freely.

When Elton John called her “England’s Rose,” it was more than a lyric — it was truth. Roses are symbols of beauty and pain, fragility and strength. And Diana’s rose still blooms in the collective memory, inspiring generations to embody empathy and grace in a fractured world.

The Living Myth

Even now, images of Diana stir something ineffable within us. The tilt of her head, the softness of her smile, the quiet strength in her eyes — they evoke more than nostalgia. They awaken the archetypal field she carried. We don’t merely remember her; we feel her. And in that feeling, she continues her work — teaching us about love, liberation, and the courage to be true.

A Legacy of Light

Twenty-eight years on, Diana is no longer just a figure in history; she is a living myth, a reminder of what it means to be human while carrying the spark of the divine. She was, and remains, an archetype in motion: the goddess who dared to walk among us, who loved, who suffered, who triumphed, and whose light could not be dimmed.

We honour her not as a relic of the past but as a continuing presence — a guiding star for those of us learning to live with compassion, to honour our independence, and to stand in our truth. Diana, the goddess, the protector, the untamed heart, still whispers to the world:

“Be brave. Be kind. Be free.”

The Healing Power of Kindness, Compassion, Forgiveness, and Support

Over the weekend, I had the pleasure of witnessing something truly beautiful in my Living Grace workshop/retreat—women supporting each other with open hearts, sharing their stories, giving generously, and receiving with grace. It reminded me yet again of the sacred power that kindness, compassion, forgiveness, and support hold in our lives. These qualities are not merely niceties we offer to others—they are vibrational medicines that restore wholeness to ourselves and to the collective.

Kindness is love in motion. It doesn’t ask for recognition, nor does it seek a reward. Instead, it flows quietly and freely, creating ripples that extend far beyond what the eye can see. Research from Emory University shows that practicing kindness and generosity activates the brain’s reward systems, releasing feel-good chemicals like dopamine and oxytocin, which strengthen our sense of connection and well-being. When we choose kindness, we are not only uplifting others—we are physiologically healing ourselves.

Compassion takes us deeper. It invites us to see through the eyes of another, to feel into their journey, and to respond with presence rather than judgment. Compassion isn’t pity—it’s power. Studies at Stanford University’s Center for Compassion and Altruism Research reveal that cultivating compassion through mindfulness and heart-based practices reduces stress, strengthens the immune system, and enhances emotional resilience. Compassion awakens our capacity to hold space for both the beauty and the brokenness of life. In doing so, we become mirrors of hope, reminding others that they are not alone.

Forgiveness is the great liberator. It is not about excusing what has been done, but about releasing the hold it has on us. Neuroscientific research from Harvard Medical School has shown that practicing forgiveness lowers blood pressure, reduces anxiety and depression, and promotes overall heart health. Forgiveness literally shifts the body out of “fight or flight” and into a state of rest and repair. When we forgive, we reclaim our energy, our peace, and our capacity to love.

And support is the bridge. To support someone is to walk beside them—not to carry their burden, but to remind them of their own strength. Social support has been identified in numerous studies, including long-term research at Harvard, as one of the greatest predictors of health and longevity. When we feel supported, our nervous system relaxes, our resilience grows, and our capacity for joy expands. Being supportive is love in practice—it is kindness extended over time, compassion held with patience, and forgiveness lived through understanding.

Support also has a collective dimension. In communities, especially among women, support becomes a weaving of strength and tenderness that uplifts everyone involved. When we gather in circles of trust, we remember that healing is not only an individual journey—it is a shared one. In my Living Grace retreat, I saw firsthand how the act of women supporting women created a sacred field of belonging, where vulnerability became strength and every voice mattered. This is the essence of collective healing: where each person’s offering strengthens the whole.

Together, kindness, compassion, forgiveness, and support form a sacred constellation of healing. They are practices of the heart that dissolve separation and restore coherence. They open the way for harmony—within ourselves, in our relationships, and in the wider world.

This is the alchemy of love in action: a softening, a surrender, a sacred power that transcends wounds and awakens wholeness. And it begins with the smallest of choices—the choice to be kind, to be compassionate, to forgive, and to support.

Because in truth, every act of love is an act of healing.

Heart to Heart, Elizabeth

Reflection Practice: 

This week, notice one moment where you can extend kindness without expectation, compassion without judgment, forgiveness without condition, or support without needing to fix. Feel how it shifts your inner state, and trust that this subtle ripple of love is part of healing the whole.

Listening to the Silence

In an act of creation, there is a moment when the world falls silent. It is here, in this holy pause, that the sacred enters.

For most of my life, I have attended to these three practices — a trinity of presence that has shaped both my creative path and my way of being in our world:

Listen to the Silence—Enter the Silence—And become one with what I am creating or doing.

These are not just steps; they are doorways to another way of being. Each one draws me deeper into surrendering to the present moment — where spirit and matter weave together. Over the years, I’ve come to see that this process is also the key to truly being with people. Not just hearing them… but listening with the kind of presence that can be felt.

In a world vibrating with a digital cacophony and opinion-laden voices, the most radical act is no longer to speak, but to truly listen. Not listening with the mind’s impatience or the ego’s interruptions — but the deep listening that disarms the ego, stills the inner noise, and allows the other person to be fully received.

If the unseen realms kept a karmic measure, it wouldn’t be based on how many hours we sat in meditation, but on how many hearts were spent feeling fully heard. Because listening, in its most valid form, is meditation.

It is the discipline of presence — the art of letting another soul unfold without resistance.

The true alchemy is becoming one with all that is, another human being and discovering the extraordinary in that moment.

Unconditional Love: A Radical Path

It can be incredibly difficult—sometimes almost impossible—to forgive those who have hurt, betrayed, or traumatised us. When someone’s behaviour cuts deep, leaving wounds that echo across years or even lifetimes, forgiveness can feel like a betrayal of our pain, a dismissal of the truth.

And yet, when we hold on tightly to the story of the wrong, something else begins to take root—Rage, Resentment, Blame, Hatred—These energies may seem justified, even necessary, in the face of cruelty or injustice. But over time, they lodge themselves in our emotional body and nervous system, quietly distorting the very peace we yearn for. We lose touch not only with the person or events that hurt us, but also with ourselves. With our own essence and the humanity we are trying to protect.

Here’s the paradox:
The longer we withhold forgiveness, the more estranged we become from the very qualities we value—empathy, compassion, self-trust, and connection. 

But there is a powerful, transformative path available to us…

To love anyway. 
To love radically.
To love unconditionally.
Even when it defies logic.

Now, let’s pause here. The phrase unconditional love has been tossed around so frequently that it’s lost its gravitas. It’s become a buzzword in self-help circles and spiritual memes. But true unconditional love—the kind that asks us to see another’s humanity even through the fog of our pain—is not passive or naive. It is the most powerful of all forces.

To offer forgiveness and unconditional love to someone who has harmed you does not mean excusing their behaviour. It does not mean denying accountability, justice, or healthy boundaries. But it does mean choosing to transform the energetic imprint you carry—And that changes everything.

When we forgive, we shift our resonance. We reclaim our own clarity. We stop feeding the wound, and instead begin nourishing a new pattern of response. We become part of the solution.

Energetically, forgiveness liberates. It creates space where blame and resentment can’t exist. It invites a recalibration in the wider field, often in unseen but impactful ways. Your forgiveness might be the very light that helps tip the scales in a more life-affirming direction. 

Even if you never see the results directly, your act of inner alchemy becomes a living prayer—one that supports the emergence of truth, healing, and greater harmony.

This is not blind optimism. It is the wisdom of universal balance. Forgiveness is not about forgetting. It’s about freeing.

It’s about choosing love over bitterness, and coherence over chaos. It is how we reclaim our deepest humanity—And ultimately, how we help heal the world.
