At little over a year ago I was speaking with a woman who sells essential oils and she mentioned that she had stated what her passion and purpose was in the world and when she did, amazing things began to happen.

Always one whose up for more growth and more change, I sat down on my birthday and meditated on what my passion and purpose is.  I received several pieces of information:

First - In defining my passion and purpose, it is my passion and purpose for this moment in time.  It could change and I could have more than one.

Second - Defining my passion and purpose is a statement.  Defining it does not mean identifying how it will manifest, what it will look like or what I will do with my passion and purpose.

Third - Reaffirm my passion and purpose until it is clearly a part of me.

So I thought about my passion and purpose and the statement that came to me was "To be a voice and an advocate for animals."  Notice there is no "how I will do this" and no qualifying information.  It is simply a statement.

Soon after making this statement, I noticed a change in my work with animals.  I was becoming a strong voice and advocate for animals in the reading spaces.  And information started to come that eventually evolved into my Conscious Animal Connection work. Less than a year after making this statement I also started Conscious Animal Radio, a project that flowed into place effortlessly.

This January I was guided to add on to my passion and purpose and found myself making the same statement with regard to children "To be a voice and an advocate for children."  And again things have flowed, to allow me to fulfill this passion and purpose.

Just last night I was at an event for Donna Karan's Urban Zen Foundation and I realized I have a third passion and purpose "To be a support and a guide for women."  I expressed that passion and purpose while listening to Ms Karan.  After she finished speaking I had an opportunity to meet her and tell her about my work.  She invited me to join her Urban Zen healing team in New Orleans April 11 and 12th to offer free healing work to 20,000 women from the Gulf Coast.

Clarity is priceless :-)

So think about it and let me know what YOUR passion and purpose is.  Remember, it's a statement - no explanation of how you will do it, what this means or how it will evolve.  It is a statement. Then let me know how things flow into your life.  Join my forum or leave your thoughts on this blog.  Let me know if I can repost them on the forum.

Ok...so it's all set up.  Beginning Monday March 24th and running through Friday March 28 I will be hosting a live call in radio show at 6pm EST to discuss two of the 10 questions each day.  Visit my website for more information and to start talking now at the Conscious Living Forum.  Each show we'll have special guests contributing their thoughts, plus we want to hear from you...so put on your thinking caps and get ready to talk...oh and post and cross post...let's get the word out!

March 24-March 28 Christine Agro hosts a live call-in talk show each day at 6 pm EST to celebrate Conversation Week 2008.  Her co-host is Karen Taggart, director of non-profit services for care2.com.  During each show we will be discussing two of the 10 most important questions facing the world today.  1500 people from around the world voted to decide the 10 questions.  People can see the 10 questions (with thoughts to think about), find a link to the show, and the call-in phone number at www.christineagro.com/consciouslivingshow.html   You'll also find a forum for people to start discussing right way.  During the show listeners can call in with their thoughts. 
 
Fifteen hundred people in 39 countries participated in suggesting and selecting the following ten questions as the most important ones in the world today. These are our concerns expressed not as demands but as the questions we must all consider at every level of life to meet the challenges of our times.  Here's the questions...

• How can we best prepare our children for the future? (Our Children, Our Future)
  
• What does sustainability look like to you? How do we get there? (Making Sustainability Real
  
• How do humans need to adapt to survive the changes predicted for this century? (Survival in the 21st Century)
• How do we shift from "Me" to "We" on both the local and global levels? (From "me" to "we")
• How can you, as Gandhi said, be the change that you want to see in the world? (Being the change)
• What kind of economic structures can best support a shift to sustainable living? (A healthy economy)
• How should we re-invent the political process so that people feel that they have a voice? (Having a political voice)
• What kind of leadership does the world need now? (Who leads now?)
• How can we balance our personal needs with the most pressing needs of our community and the larger world? (Personal Balance in Demanding Times)
• What can we do to reduce or eliminate violence in the world? (Ending violence everywhere)
  
  

I just confirmed that I will host a special week long live Internet radio show for Conversation Week 2008. 

I'm so excited to be participating in this amazing event, through the medium I love...live talk show.

I've been hosting Conscious Animal Radio since last year, but for Conversation Week 2008 I have set up a special show and show time.  The show is Conscious Living and the time...well, I haven't decided that yet.  Any suggestions?  I'm thinking 7 pm - 8 pm EST.

The plan is to cover two of the 10 questions during each show.

I'll post more details once I have them.

Blessings...

I've said it before but I need to say it again....wow the earth is moving fast these days and if we stay in alignment, we move fast too.

I continue to follow the guidance of my Higher Self and in doing so have come full circle in my work, renewing my commitment to work with women and the baby Spirits they are bringing into the world.

When I first started doing clairvoyant work, Moms and Baby Spirits made up a large part of those I worked with.  I followed my inner guidance and shifted to a focus on animals in 2004.  Animals have taught me so much about our Spiritual Evolutionary process, our innate ability to heal and the roles we all play in each other lives, human and animal alike.

In 2006 I was guided during a meditation to make a clear agreement with animals and what I found myself agreeing to was this: To be a voice and an advocate for all animals.  Once I did this, life spiraled in ways I had not expect and I followed the flow.  My reading space changed as I began to see animals as Conscious Beings with their own Spiritual life plan and I began to see that when humans recognized this, both human and animal were given a great gift of growth and Spiritual awareness. 

At the beginning of 2008 I found myself being asked to make the same agreement on behalf of the children coming into the world and I did: To be a voice and advocate for the children of the world.  This agreement has already begun the spiraling process and again I am following.  I had forgotten how powerful working with Moms and Baby Spirits can be and I am both excited and honored to be once again working with them.  I started www.ThePsychicMom.com and I'm offering tele-classes on Conscious Parenting and tele-sessions that bring pregnant Moms together to work the energies that come up during pregnancy.

I will continue to support the animal kingdom and I look forward to seeing how the spirials of both areas weave and dance together.

Blessings!

I wanted to resolve to change something in my life this year that will benefit the environment so I am resolving to decline shopping bags when I can just as easily carry my purchase in my own bag or drop it in my pocket.

Make a resolution that will benefit the animals of the world and/or the environment and call in to this Monday's show (Jan 7th) and share them with the Conscious Animal Radio listeners.

Let's committ to making some changes for the greater good!

Call-in to this Monday's show and let's talk about your resolutions, animals, your animal causes and if you have questions about your animal's health, wellness or behavior i'll help you answer them

See you Monday..!

Time is so curious these days.  It feels like yesterday that I joined Zaadz but l realize now it's been more than a year since I've been here.

So where have I been?

Evoling, unfolding, falling into alignment with my higher self and going with the flow.

Where has that taken me?

It is deepend my involvment and committment to supporting the animals of the planet; to being an advocate and a voice for them.

I've started Conscious Animal Radio.  It's a live internet radio show that airs every Monday at 12 Noon Eastern Time.  You can find out more here: www.consciousanimalradio.com

I have had the coolest guests on the show - from powerful, kick butt advocates, a woman who has lived and communicated with wild birds in the australian outback for the last 6 years, to a tarot reader and astrologer who works with animals.

It's evolving into a beautiful show that is raising the consciousness of all who listen and all who particpate - me included.

I've just finished writing "The Conscious Animal: Honoring The Spirit Of Your Animal Through A Conscious Relationship." and am looking for an agent/publisher.  I am certain that it will find a publisher so I continue to follow the threads as they are presented.

If your visiting and you are interested in animals, please add me as a friend.  I will be sharing information about animals, my thoughts and theirs as the days go by.

I am happy to have returned to Zaadz, I missed the energy and I hope my renewed, focused mission will find powerful support here amoung such a powerful group of Spiritual beings.

Blessings!

ps... that's my logo - it was created in the most powerful magical way. There is an amazing grahpic designer named Samantha Baccechi. Her company is Creativemedium.net  She taps into you and then creates, but when we did this logo that process blew out her computer.  I understood why.  Conscious Animal is multi-dimensional and she was approaching it from a 2D space.  I worked with her, helped her expand and fall into alignment, told her what I saw and this is what she created. 

I have recognized in myself and clients that there is a great deal of 'pushing' and 'force' to manifest, as if we are trying to push through a membrane.

When I step back and look I see that, as we are connecting to the energies of the earth and the ocean, our manifestation space is like the water. 

When we push, we move into an ebb, when we relax into present time, we flow.

The last mercury retrograde I recognized these opportunites: to relax, release, rejuvenate; upon further reflection, I recognized that these energies are the energeis of the new earth.

Once we've set out what it is we seek...relax, release and rejuvenate and we will flow.

I've been noticing how people tend to hold others in old pictures.  Like when a parent sees their 30 year old through the picture of that child at 16 or maybe even younger.  We do it in other relationships too and at the speed some of us are growing, we can be seeing or being seen in very past terms.

One thing I've been playing with is holding people in the vibration of what they are creating at this moment at Spirit.  It has been making a great difference and it is bringing to light more and more situations when either I am seeing someone through an old picture or I am being seen through an old picture. (sometimes when we are seen through an old picture, we match that vibration and become who the person sees us as.)

I am writing this to say, "I see you in present time, in all the beauty and expansion of your growth." 

We can do the same with the earth.  See it's growth and expansion and validate each step it takes.

As we shift from the 3rd dimension to the 5th we move to living as Spirit.  This shift requires the ego and the mental body to release and relinquish.  As the shift begins, life feels chaotic, uncertain and out of control.

That's just the ego and mental body fighting to not hold on to the old ways.  Be gentle with yourself, reassure your ego and mental body that they are safe and there is nothing to 'do'.

Soon enough the shift happens and both ego and mental body realize there was nothing to worry about at all and wonderful sense of unity and harmony unfolds.

When I stand above the earth and look down, I see a grid with thousands of points of lights.  Some are lit, some are just coming on board and some are still to be lit.

Each point represents a Spirit who has agreed to help anchor the new earth vibration into the planet.

I find this image to be so powerful and such a wonderful reminder that even though some days we may feel alone on this journey, there are thousands of Spirits working right along side to create a shift in consciousness.
