The Archetype of The Holy Family

When a man and a woman come together for the sacred purpose of creation, there must be a presence greater than themselves—the fifth element: LOVE. It is through this divine force that the miracle of life is activated. When their union is infused with LOVE, the soul of the newly born vessel intrinsically knows its name and its root.

The child’s innate qualities are organically awakened and will continue to unfold throughout their entire life. At the moment of conception, it is the Christing Light that begins the child’s journey, and it is this same Light that will guide and sustain them through every stage of their existence.

This profound act—the union of two families—creates an abundance of life force, and from this merging, a new family is born. The blood of generations past flows forward to bring life to the newborn child, forming a bridge between the old and the new. This life force, imbued with the golden light of Shekinah, becomes the thread that connects us all in the sacred lineage of creation.


Through this divine act, not only is a new child born, but so too are a new mother, a new father, aunts, uncles, grandmothers, and grandfathers. We are transformed by this process, becoming something greater than ourselves—creators of a new family.

I believe the cornerstones of a thriving family are Respect, Love, Joy, and Ritual.

  • RESPECT forms the foundation for all healthy relationships.
  • LOVE is the sweet elixir that sustains and nourishes the family.
  • JOY elevates the spirit, bringing harmony and connection.
  • RITUAL is how we acknowledge and honour the divine presence in all aspects of life.

Rituals and ceremonies hold a unique power to bring families together, offering a sacred pause from the routines of daily life. These acts of celebration honour the divine union at the heart of family and creation itself. Without the holy, ceremonies can feel hollow, leaving participants with a sense of incompleteness. Our authentic human nature is rooted in our connection to the myths and truths of creation. To celebrate anything without first honouring the gift of creation is to miss the essence of what gives life meaning.

As this remarkable year draws to a close, I invite you to reflect on these thoughts. Together, let us remember: we are all the Creator’s divine creation, bound by a shared lineage of Respect, Love, Joy and Ritual. Together, we are the Creator’s beloved family.

Heart to Heart, and Blessings to you this Christmas

The Power of Being in the Now

Inspired by the quote: “Life gives you plenty of time to do whatever you want to do if you stay in the present moment.” — Deepak Chopra

This quote centres on a soft truth—a reminder that time becomes spacious and generous when aligned with your presence. We often battle with time in a world that races ahead with to-do lists, deadlines, and digital noise. 

We say, “I don’t have enough hours in the day,” or “There’s never enough time to do what I truly want.” But what if it’s not the clock’s ticking that binds us—but our absence from the present moment? The present moment is more than a concept—it is the living gateway where life unfolds. It is the sacred terrain of the now, the only place where real change, healing, creativity, and joy can occur. 

When we truly place ourselves in the present moment, we step outside the illusion of scarcity. Time slows. Space opens. You feel, see and hear your true self again.

You might have noticed it in small moments—when you lose yourself in your craft, a conversation that stirs your spirit, or the hush of nature. Time bends. Hours dissolve. And somehow, everything feels possible.

Many years ago, I experienced this truth in the most unexpected place—on a morning television talk show. I had been invited as a guest to do a makeover on a woman. We began with a heartfelt conversation on the studio couch, sharing pieces of her story. But it was backstage, in the green room, that the real magic took place.

As I began the makeover—applying her makeup, cutting and blow-drying her hair, and styling her in a new outfit—I entered a heightened zone I had never known before. It was as though time expanded, allowing me to create with precision and grace. 

A chatty young woman hovered nearby, attempting to engage, but I simply looked up at her with a soft but clear gaze—a gentle authority—and she moved on without a word. I was entirely in the now. There was no rush, no cluttered mind, just my full presence. And in just 40 minutes, an entire transformation took place—not just externally—but something deeper, more radiant. A soul remembered.

Being present in the now, creates your authentic Presence!

That experience stayed with me. It taught me that your presence is your secret power. When fully engaged in the moment, without distraction or doubt, we awaken to an extraordinary creative force within us. It’s not just about doing more—it’s about being more present to what we are doing.

The truth is that life is not too short; we spend too much of it in the past or trying to rush into futures that haven’t arrived. We dwell on regrets, replaying old stories. Or we project our fears forward, trying to control outcomes. Either way, we miss the gift wrapped around the present moment. To stay in the present moment is not to ignore plans or dreams. It is to arrive fully in what is right now, so that our actions are infused with clarity, our choices are shaped by alignment, and our presence is charged with divine power. It is in the now that our true self speaks, our soul guides, and our deepest desires begin to crystallise into form.

So if you feel like you’re running out of time—pause. Breathe. Return to the moment that’s right in front of you. Here, you will find more than minutes or hours. You will find enough. Enough energy, enough grace, enough direction to do whatever it is your soul came here to do. Because life, in all its wisdom, doesn’t rush us. It waits patiently and faithfully until we are ready to return to the only place where magic, meaning, and miracles live: the present.

What is one desire or dream you’ve been putting off because you believe you don’t have enough time?

How can you bring a piece of that dream into this moment, today?

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.

Participating with Purpose #1

Life presents us with so many competing demands that any thought toward a larger purpose gets lost in a storm of “but how”. Our days are consumed by chores: taking care of our body, our family, our job, and our possessions. We talk to people without really connecting and remaining spare time often dissipates into our favored distractions.

The meaning of any act no matter how small is derived from having a purpose. But we tend to lose touch with the purpose of what we do. We often fall into the routine of details, not relating to how the job serves society. We respond to the needs of the moment or the day, letting the opportunities of our life just slip away.

A spiritual path though aligns us with the great purpose of the universe.

Although we remain only dimly aware of that purpose, something tells us that when we practice being present, do our prayer/meditation, practice compassion and actively seek wisdom, we simultaneously serve both our own purpose and a greater purpose. The truth of purpose goes even further; one could say that the Creator is the purpose, a profound mountain of purpose behind the cosmos, a purpose that creates and sustains the universe and us. Through our spiritual practice, our creative work, our acts of love, kindness, peace, and responsibility, we participate directly in that great purpose of The Divine Living Presence. 

Are we connected to our purpose while standing in line at the checkout? We need to feed our family, be kind to others and be fully present with people, so I guess the answer is yes. Living with intention connects us with a greater intention; the Divine Living Presence intention, which is where we find meaning, this includes the meaning of each moment of our life. Participating with purpose brings about a confidence that what you do matters, that your inner work matters beyond yourself. Participating with purpose brings with it a happy and meaningful life.

Stay tuned for my following post – Participating with Purpose #2

Gateways

All the Light Centres in the Living Attributes Typology in The Pathway Of Devotion (down the centre) are Gateways. 

November

CYAN is the GATEWAY in the Celestial Realm, which is the POINT of POWER for the Higher Purpose. This realm is home to your Gift to Humanity (YOUR BESTOWAL)

August

PINK is the GATEWAY in the Spiritual Realm – POINT of POWER for the Higher Heart. This realm is home to your Creative Gifts (YOUR SPIRIT)

May

BLUE is the GATEWAY in the Emotional Realm – POINT of POWER for True Emotion. This realm is the home of your Personal Message to the World. (YOUR VOICE)

January

RED is the GATEWAY in the Physical Realm – POINT of POWER of the Formative Self. This realm is the home of your Personal Presence in the World. (YOUR FOUNDATION)

So what does that mean for all the other light centres in the system?

All light centres are portals to a particular light stream, but the central pillar, which is called the pathway of Devotion and known as Gateways.

Of course, not everybody has their personal archetypes in Devotion – so for example, if your archetype in the Emotional realm is the Visionary,  you would still be ‘correcting & transforming’ your shadow nature, which would be strengthening your Personal Message to the World. You still have the experience of moving through the gate-way of  True Emotion, but of course, it will be a different experience than someone who has their archetype in that particular gateway. It’s not better or worst, but rather just different.

As we move through these devotional gateways year after year, there is often a particular intensity about the experience. Reason being we need to ‘correct and transform’ our shadow nature before moving through to our next level. Every year we get to experience our archetypes at a deeper level and with this deeper connection we receive a little more of our Radiance.
