Holding the Light: Reflections on Jane Goodall’s Passing

When I received a message of gratitude from a friend who had seen my posts about Jane Goodall, my heart stirred in a way that surprised me. My response to her felt almost instinctive: “It’s the least one can do.”

Because when someone like Jane departs this earthly plane, something profound happens. It is not only a loss we mourn—it is a transmission we receive.

I have long believed that when an icon of such gracious magnitude passes, their archetypal codes disperse. These luminous codes, born from a lifetime of devotion and love, do not vanish; instead, they ripple outward, searching for open hearts ready to carry the flame forward. They find those of us who loved, admired, and aligned with their essence—and they gently rest within us, asking to be lived, embodied, and shared.

Today, I have wept three times for Jane. Not out of despair, but out of a deep and sacred opening. Each tear felt like a prayer, an initiation, a holy reminder that grief can be the tender hand that opens us to more love, more reverence, more responsibility. In those moments of weeping, I felt her presence move through me, not as absence, but as a call to continue holding the necessary light for the evolution of our humanity.

I believe Jane Goodall was indeed an Angel sent to guide us and support our beautiful planet and its animal kingdom. She was a living testament to the power of gentle strength, steadfast vision, and radical compassion. She showed us what it means to listen—truly listen—to the earth, to animals, to the quiet voices of wisdom within us all. And though her physical form has passed, her archetypal presence remains—a code etched into the collective soul.

To my dear friend who thanked me for sharing: I thank you. Your message allowed me to articulate what my heart already knew but had not yet put into words—that powerful souls like Jane do not leave us. They expand through us.

May we honour her not by imitating her path, but by walking our own with the same grace, courage, and devotion to our purpose in life.

Heart to Heart, Elizabeth

Remembering Mother Nature and the Sovereignty of Our Wellbeing

Did you know that it’s as quick as one generation for the wisdom gathered from the Earth to be forgotten?

But thankfully, it is also as quick as one generation, or just a few, to remember.
To return. To rebuild—To reawaken the incredible voice of nature and ground ourselves again in our humanness.

At the centre of this great remembering stands The Mother Nature Archetype—not merely a symbol, but a living energy, the primordial source from which all life has emerged. She is the breathing soul of the Earth, the ever-generous force of nourishment, creation, and regeneration. Every river, every stone, every gust of wind is her whisper. We call her “Mother” because we are born of her body—our blood is her water, our bones her minerals, our breath her air.

She is not separate from us. She is us.

To understand the Mother Nature archetype is to come home to a sacred truth: that our wellbeing is deeply interwoven with the living intelligence of Earth. She feeds without condition, shelters without demand, and reminds us—through storms and blossoms alike—that life is sacred, cyclical, and relational.

Even in a world that has sought to control and commodify nature’s gifts, her essence prevails. Though we’ve witnessed the attempted ownership of seeds, soils, and healing practices—she cannot be patented. And while systems have risen that try to sever our bond with the natural world, Earth’s song continues to call us back.

We are living at an extraordinary threshold.

All over the world, people are waking up. Remembering that the sovereignty of human health is a birthright. That healing is not simply a transaction, but a sacred interaction—with our bodies, with our food, with our breath, with the Earth herself. That wellness is not found in isolation, but in communion.

The wisdom of Mother Nature is rising from soil and spring, from root and rain, and through the keepers of ancestral memory—the seed savers, herbalists, midwives, elders, and Earth-listeners who never forgot. This wisdom is now colliding with regenerative visions of the future, birthing something entirely new—a way of living that honours origin and evolution.

Of course, this renaissance does not emerge without shadows. We must remember the rupture. We can look to the Flexner Report as a symbol of how traditional and holistic healing was once pushed aside in favour of institutional control. This schism between humanity and nature created deep wounds—discrediting the very knowledge that once ensured our survival and spiritual vitality.

And yet, something new is growing.

A different mountain is rising. Slowly, steadily, from the heart of the Earth and from the tenacity of our own hands. This mountain is made of memory and courage. It mirrors how our ancestors carried wisdom across centuries—through drought, fire, and displacement—refusing to let the sacred be lost. This mountain is the quiet revolution of return. It is the reclaiming of our wholeness.

To embody the Mother Nature archetype is to live as a bridge between soil and soul, matter and mystery. Her many faces live within us:

  • The Earth Keeper, steward of seeds, land, and legacy
  • The Wild Woman, intuitive and untamed
  • The Nurturer, healing through compassion and rhythm
  • The Guardian of Cycles, honouring the moon, the womb, and the seasons
  • The Crone Elder, holding deep-time wisdom and the blueprint of remembrance

This is not a story of going backwards. This is a story of going deeper, while expanding. A return not to what was—but to what is eternally true.

I will do something

Humanity’s ancient knowledge bank is still alive. It never left us—it lives in our bones and breath. We are being invited to witness its resilience not as a well to drain, but as a sacred code to integrate, protect, and evolve.

So let us walk barefoot again.
Let us tend the soil, listen to the wind, and gather by firelight.
Let us reclaim the rhythm that lives in our blood and in the land.
Let us build this new mountain together, with the strength of our memory and the vision of our hearts.

The remembering has begun. The mountain rises.
And our Beloved Mother is calling us home.

What if the ART of ALCHEMY is LOVE?

Is the Vibration of LOVE Simply the Coherence of Creation?

Often, we limit our understanding of “Love” to romantic relationships. But what if Love is something far greater—an all-pervasive, living energy that surrounds our planet and fuels the very act of creation? We know that heart-to-heart connections generate unity, but Love, in its highest form, is a co-creative force—far beyond the unconscious act of reproduction.

What if every connection we make is, in essence, a loving relationship? The depth of Love we invest in our vocations, our purpose, and our daily experiences fuels not only our creativity but the very essence of our existence.

We all have access to this boundless, powerful energy, yet we often fear it. The frequency of Love touches every aspect of life—our families, friendships, work, passions, environment, and even our relationship with the planet itself. We continually express what we love and what we resist. But what if Love is more than an emotion—what if it is the very substance that sustains the universe?

Could it be that what we call GOD is simply the force of Love itself? And that we are naturally wired to create coherence—to generate more Love, more Light, more of the divine essence that I call The Christos Sophia?

Throughout life, we oscillate between two fundamental energies: Love, which equates to LIFE and LIGHT, and Fear, which can manifests as DEATH and DARKNESS. But is it truly Love that we fear? Or is it our own resistance to Life and Light? For some, it seems easier to remain disconnected from Love, Light, and the Divine, rather than surrender to a frequency so powerful that it might actually be sustaining the entire cosmos.

For me, my guiding mantra is this: “I Love The Christos Sophia First.”

When I say these words, something profound happens:

  • First, I feel an instant connection to a source that loves me unconditionally.
  • Then, I feel a deep acceptance of myself and greater compassion for others.
  • Next, I sense a powerful assurance that all things good flow from this connection.
  • Finally, I intuitively know that this feeling generates more Love, more Light, more divine presence.

Perhaps the alchemy of turning lead into gold is simply a metaphor for perfecting Love—both within and without. It is the divination of matter and spirit, the merging of the human with the divine.

This understanding is not foreign to artists, visionaries, and creators. When we immerse ourselves in the process of bringing something new into existence, we form a sacred bond with it—we Love it into being. And through that Love, we seek perfection, wholeness, and expression.

This “becoming one with” is the essence of true alchemy. It is the sacred formula of transformation, requiring surrender—both of the Self and to Love itself. A true alchemist must undergo sacrifice, purification, and release of the ego-self, for at the heart of Great Work lies a singular truth:

Artist: Federico Infante

The ART of ALCHEMY is LOVE

It is the science of the Soul, the bridge between humanity and divinity, the understanding of the nature of the cosmos, the earth, and the human spirit.

For millennia, the sages, saints, and shamans have sought to harness this power—giving it names, rituals, and symbols. But in essence, they were all discovering the same truth: Love is the greatest force of all.

And this power is not beyond us—it is within us. We are hardwired to generate this miraculous force. Perhaps the ancients were right when they taught: “We must Love and acknowledge our Source first, above all else.”

It makes perfect sense. If we were created by a force fueled by Love, of course, we would Love that Source first.

Faith for the purpose of co-creating Autonomy

During the month of April in the Living Goddess Code we focus on the lovely energy of the Maiden archetype and our spiritual connection to the natural world that we occupy.

The arrival of April also marks the initiation of a unique three-month journey within the realm of emotions. This experience encompasses the months of April, May, and June, each of which plays a pivotal role in developing your Emotional Self and the deep connection to your Higher Self. Through this cycle, the seeds of insight are sown, guiding you towards nurturing your soul’s ultimate purpose. This time is often called crossing the threshold into the Emotional Realm.

The month of the Maiden archetype is the perfect time to dive deep into her relaxed and flexible energy. Even if the Maiden isn’t your specific archetype in this realm, I still recommend you allow the powerful archetypal and angelic forces of the Maiden to enter your life this month, it’s also possible that your ancestors or you have lived several lifetimes with the Maiden and Otter archetype. You may well have a few Maiden codes in your Souls DNA.

THE SACRED POWER OF AUTONOMY

Autonomy kindles the flames of discovery and nurtures the roots of empowerment. Autonomy is a cornerstone for personal growth, weaving a narrative of self-direction and unfolding the wings of independence. In the moments of decision-making, the light of individuality finds its way, a harmonious melody resonating with ownership and purpose. Autonomy transcends mere existence; it transforms life into an evolving masterpiece, where each choice and action paint strokes of intention across your life experience. With autonomy as your compass, you journey each chapter of self-learning and development, as written not by circumstance, but by the choices that shape your destiny.

Our Point Of Light In The Heart Reveals Our Gift To Humanity

Our Point in the Heart is the Light placed there by the Creator and is hidden by our many human desires; Until we can surrender our egotistic desires and embrace our altruistic desire by merging with the Creator. –  Here is my discovery about that journey.

My Point of Light in my heart took me to Paris.

Our connection and gifts are unexpectedly revealed to us at a particular point in time and for a specific reason. These extraordinary encounters remind us of the power and brilliance of The Divine Living Presence: Bestowing upon us our unique configuration of the Light, a blessing and expression of our Soul’s imprint onto this world. Reminding us of the perfection of the Divine Light within us, and revealing the most precious thing we will ever have; Our Light.

This photo is so precious to me because it’s precisely one of those amazing points in time; a few years have passed since this photo – but many more divine jewels have now come to Light because of that point in my and point in time.


When we don’t truly value our gifts, we are demonstrating to the world of Light (the upper world), also known as the ‘Field of Possibility’, the ‘Field of Intent’ or the ‘Quantum Field’ – that we don’t value the true nature of the Creator or Mother -Father God –. We then become disconnected or remain disconnected and live a life of repeated suffering.In that one moment, that one elated and profound moment, I was experiencing an exclusive and intimate union with my God.

I mindfully use the words exclusive and intimate because they are precisely the way to describe the experience that created the full and sparkling reveal of my gifts at that moment. It was like I was 200% present; when you are that present, all is revealed, even the Creator. I had to turn out the window and commune with my maker. 

Looking out the window, I said, “Dear God, I am so truly and deeply grateful to have been given such a blessed life. Glory be to thee in the highest.” And So It Is.
I now know what was occurring at that moment was a significant process of “correcting and transforming”; this surrendering to the Light was recalibrating my life forever. Many life experiences were healed right then, and all my inherent gifts were revealed and activated.

I received Sanctity in that one precious moment… I am eternally grateful and forever changed by that auspicious experience. – Elizabeth Ellames

If you KNOW YOURSELF, you will TRUST YOURSELF

Most people ask this question at one point in their life. And it’s often when their life is not looking or feeling as good as they would like.

“What is the point of my life, why I am here and as any of this really matter?”

And the answer will usually be something along the lines of… 

Know Yourself
Trust Yourself
Love Yourself
And
Live Your Larger Story

But what does that really mean?

I was born with a strong impulse to share…

I share simply because I love sharing, not because I think I have some profound wisdom, but rather because I am a human being that STORY wants to move through. I have a lot to say because there is a lot to say, and there is a wealth of STORY in the cosmos keen to birth itself onto our planet at this present time.

What I have to say, is really more about the “what, why and how” of making oneself ready, willing and available for the appropriate stories to find the appropriate people.

And it is our shining spirit that story is rightly attracted to – but unfortunately, it’s the constant distractions and our addiction to the busyness that blocks our connection to our own spirit, which then creates a lack of adhesion to the powerful stories that want to find their way to our hearts. Every generation needs powerful stories to advance its evolution, but if a story doesn’t connect to the spirit of a human the story has no soul, and a story with no soul dies, which is a vulnerable place for humans to live in or grow from.

Stories are constantly knocking on our hearts to advance humanity so we can navigate our way through each generation. And without these appropriate, soulful stories our cultures can struggle to grow because they lose the ability to recognize the importance of ‘overcoming obstacles’ and the discipline to absolutely ‘protect their hope’, which ultimately fuels their vision and passion for a brighter future.

I designed the Living Attributes Typology as a tool to help women become powerful vessels so they can live their larger story, a story that they feel, is worthy of sharing and celebrating… a story that will genuinely inspire future generations.

So, peeps the term ‘know yourself’ in the Living Attributes system is associated with knowing “you”,  your history, your backstory, your true nature and how it has influenced your life. And how it can potentially inspire or add value to other peoples lives. 

The Best Way To Discover Your Purpose Is To Discover Your Story
