Include

What we mean by this is to include your whole self in your regard. Include others’ whole selves as well, the parts you agree with and the parts you do not. The parts that annoy you and the parts that attract. The parts you find acceptable and the parts that repel. Include it all.

You are more than the sum of your parts, but without the entirety of your self, you will never be all of yourself. Making particular demands on yourself in order to include aspects in your regard is called conditional love, and believe us – It Does Not Work.

Nobody responds well to rejection, which is exactly what exclusion is. When you decide to only love your body at a certain weight or fitness level or functionality or behavior on command, that is excluding entire huge swaths of your own very human condition. It is unreasonable and unnecessary and it does not get positive results.

Have some curiosity about aspects of yourself you have rejected. What if it is included, in the package of you, to have warts? What if it is included to sometimes belch? Are you allowed to get older and wrinkled? Are you allowed to have folds in your skin at all? There is no stretching and growing and becoming without those folds, so you might want to include them in your inventory of things you cannot live without.

To include the whole kit and kaboodle, of yourself and of others, is to accept a cosmic invitation to a mysterious and intriguing joy ride. You can be prickly and sweet. You can be intelligent and also not bright. You might mean well and do poorly by someone.

Each human is a walking box of paradox, and the sooner you can accept all your bits and pieces, the sooner they will seem to fit together. And that makes you whole. And that makes you greater than the sum of all your parts. Even the ones you dislike. They have something to offer as well, you know.

Some people feel that anger is a distasteful thing. Now to be angry all the time for no reason and to take it out on others, that is an annoying habit that will not get you anywhere. But mostly this kind of thing happens when a person rejects their own anger, vowing that it has no home, it is bad, it is wrong.

When anyone is excluded like that, they are liable to bang on the door. Anger does have a place in the world, and in the human experience. There are plenty of times it is called for and it brings, ultimately, protection. So it requires inclusion for any human to be whole

Bring your whole self with you, wherever you go. ❀

Become

To become is inevitable, here in your 3D life. That is what it’s all about. Here you are, becoming who you came here to be, in all the many ways and iterations that is possible, which is virtually, if not literally, infinite. (Nothing is truly infinite in the third dimension, although that is neither here nor there. Well, it might be there. Not here, really. Where we are. Which isn’t really here, either.)

Where were we? Ah, yes…

The action of becoming is irresistible, inevitable, irrevocable. You cannot unbecome; you can only continue to become. You cannot avoid becoming. To resist it is simply to fold resistance into your story, into the dimensional being that you are, and the future being you become.

So, consider now what it is that you wish to become. What elements do you choose to bring into your story, the lived experience of your lifetime in this body, this family, this earth? You may have no choice but to Become, that is the action of living. But you have some say in the elements featured, and the roles they play, in your life.

Become love. Where do you aim it? Become anger. To what end? Become sorrow. To heal or to wallow? For enlightenment or regret? All of this and more is at your command.

To become is inevitable; how and who you become is up to you. Each breath is another step towards the fullness of your life. With what do you fill it? What do you breathe in? What to exhale? ❀

Intensity

However you slice it, Intensity is always relative. Like the story of how to boil a frog, it depend on what you are used to experiencing. If you are used to a lot of drama and hardship, less intensity will feel foreign, boring, perhaps even dangerous or sad. If you are used to a peaceful life, intensity may be measured in how beautiful the sunset was tonight, and not in how many gunshots were heard near your home.

Intensity has a volume control knob of a sort, but it goes in multiple directions. Intensity is a multidimensional experience, and it all depends on where you stand. Not everyone enjoys intensity, but most people have a kind of intensity they enjoy, or a level at which they feel more alive. Intensity in and of itself is neutral, but the experience of it is always subjective.

When you are looking for intensity, it is easy to ramp it up. If you can’t find it in one place, you can keep moving until you find it somewhere else. If you cannot find the intensity of love or joy or pleasure, you can find the intensity of anger or mischief or running for your life. You can strike out at various targets, intentionally or with whatever comes to hand.

Be aware of the level of intensity you seek, and how you inspire it. Ask yourself what it is you are hoping to find.

You may actually be looking for love. You may be seeking inspiration. Perhaps you are hoping for a response to you, any reaction at all, just to tell you that you are alive, you are visible, you are seen. But be cautious – who do you want to see you, acknowledge you, and why?

Consider both the source and the purpose of your intensity, and notice the methods by which you engage, and the outcome of your approach. When you are easily overwhelmed, intensity finds you without being invited, and you may need to consider better protection for your psyche. When you are looking for just a thrill, you might ask yourself what you are running from, which of your gifts you are avoiding, what inner self you are forsaking in your quest.

There is enough intensity in life for life to flourish. If you have not found your way to harmony with all of it, and to your ability to calibrate for your particular needs, keep experimenting. It is a process without end. ❀

All life is an expression of love

Everyone came into existence on the physical plane as an imperfect expression of unconditional love. Imperfect, because if you show up on Earth, you are living in conditional reality, and therefore cannot easily express your true essence.

This is the basic difficulty of being human, along with the powerful illusion of separateness from each other, and the loss of feeling a part of All That Is. But this is why you are here. You are trying to learn things that cannot be learned in any other way. You are trying to experience and express those aspects of being which can only happen here.

It is not easy, but it is important. Necessary. Because all of this is in fact interconnected, and if you bring conscious effort to believing that, behaving as if it is so, and experiencing your life this way, then you have moved everything forward a step, towards harmony, peace, and truth.

You do not have to do this. But this is what you are called to do. You choose whether or not to answer. Some days you might sleep in. There is no punishment, or shirking of duty. There is simply showing up, waking up, sending out and receiving that which is the true life force, that which we call love. ✩

Persistence

When something deserves to be done, it might take longer than you think. You might need to take the long view, to wait it out.

There is something to be said for determination, slow and steady, winning the race.

Except there is no race.

This is about the march of time, and how it never paces according to your will. So, time yourself to something else, the level of satisfaction at each day’s end, the tally of how you lived into your ideals, what you learned, who you loved, where the regret and opportunity lay.

Each morning renew your commitment.

Not “this day I will be a better person” or even “I will do better than I did before” but simply, “Here is who I am and what I stand for, and to the best of my ability I will meet myself with all my heart as best I can with what I have to work with in this moment.”

That should be sufficient to get you where you want to go, so that at the end of your life you will look back not with regret, or even pride, but with gratitude and wonder at what richness you were given and gave back, by the mere fact of your singular existence. ✩

Kindness to others without kindness to oneself is incomplete

Kindness to others is only part of the equation. If you cannot find it in your heart to make friends with yourself, then where does that really put you in life? Very lonely and sad, and false, in a way.

You can be the kindest person alive, in the outer sense, but if you have insufficient kindness towards your own follies and foibles and faults, you will never convince anyone of your sincerity. You will never be as trusted as you long to be, for who can be seen as trustworthy when they mistreat their own dear self?

Then those around you live in fear or concern about the day it all falls down and maybe takes them with it.

A house divided against itself cannot stand, and so reserving kindness for those around you and limiting or restricting the kindness you give yourself will make a weak vessel, which ultimately must fail.

Remember, you are as deserving of your own kindness and generosity of spirit as anyone else, even more so. How will you do your good work in the world, if your structure cannot hold, and if you are forsaken by the one who should stand by you each and every moment of your life? ✩

Joy

Joy is found in secret places, not always expressed aloud. Joy is a small thing, a large thing, a sensation beyond description, but you know when it arrives.

You may have noticed that any attempt to generate joy for the sake of joy very often fails. If it is joy you seek, bring joy to others, any way you can. If you do not know how to do this, then ask, observe, watch others, and learn what it is, this thing called joy.

Do not assume about joy. It is a quiet thing. It will let you know when it wants to come play. If you allow it, then you will eventually know it well. If you live your life in such a way that there is room enough for joy to visit, eventually joy will make a home with you.

Make friends with joy, nourish joy, and introduce joy to everyone you know. But you cannot command joy.

Joy does not come at anyone’s beck and call.

Joy is the result of a joyful life, not the cause of it.

Do not confuse the initial impulse with the outcome. ☼

Effort

Effort is not what you think. Sometimes it is giving the old heave ho, but more often it is gentle, sustained intention. Effort means not giving up.

Effort means putting one foot in front of the other, when no apparent reward exists, when nothing is guaranteed. You keep going because you said you would, because going forward is the only way out, because effort brings fruition, whether or not you live to see it.

Effort is not drudgery. It is a good day’s work, an honest living, the purpose-driven activity of the intentional mind. It is not always breaking a sweat. It does not always include a sore body the following day. And it hardly ever means injury.

There is such a thing as effortless effort, which means the precise measurement has been taken and no more and no less is applied. This ability comes through much practice, and of course through many experiences of too much and too little and the timing being off.

When you are in the flow of things, effort is not off-putting. When you are committed to survival, effort is not a thought. Effort is just what is done.

Depending on circumstance and your state of mind, it could be uplifting and exhilarating, or it could be a drag, or both. ☼

Solitude

As they say, no one is an island. But from time to time, it is useful to isolate your Self, away from all that is known, that knows you, that distracts you from your center. Everyone needs privacy, and the security of alone time, to connect with their inner self.

Solitude is where the source of you resides, and must be visited from time to time. When you lose touch with your sacred inner Self, the fire of confidence grows dim. You lose clarity, insight, and truth, when you go for long stretches of time away from Home.

This Home, inside, is forever available to you, and yet you do not recall it when your days are full.

Solitude is respite, and sometimes lonesome, and always vital to your integrity of Self.

When you visit yourself on the island inside you, rest a while on your
own sweet shore. Even if the rocks are rocky, and the sand gets in your crevices.

Home is where your heart is, and your heart, inside, is Home. ☼

Awareness

Awareness is a fleeting thing. The tricky part of being human is the tenuous connection with conscious experience. It is easy to disappear, and – naturally – so tempting.

Each small effort that you bring to the awareness of your present moment experience, to life as you live it, to thoughts and feelings and assumptions, all the nonjudgmental discernment that you can bring at any time, helps bring your soul into alignment and manifestation in your human life. So what, you might ask.

If you bring your Self more fully into this experience of being human, you will find more ease in your life. More importantly, you become an even clearer conduit for all the information passing back and forth between this human experience and the Oneness, or All That Is (aka Source, unconditional love energy).

When the transmission goes smoothly, you experience joy and peace of mind, and an indescribable sense of satisfaction. You know, deeply, that you are doing exactly what you came here for, even if you can’t say what that is.

It’s not easy to be human, but with increased awareness it is like the joy of strengthening your physical muscles. You become capable of so much more, with less effort than you thought possible. And, you don’t even have to sweat! ☾

Origin

Origin is both inside and outside of you. You can stand inside yourself peering out at the light and wonder what is happening. You can be the light, pouring in through the cracks, trying desperately to illuminate all that is locked away within. Anything is possible.

Once upon a time, a very long time ago, there was the Oneness. And it decided to become itself more and more, and in doing so it splintered into Soul Groups. Each Soul Group houses many souls. Every soul is connected to their Soul Group and the Oneness. Simple as that.

All the work of becoming now lies on the shoulders of the souls. They go to Earth and other places and times and have lifetimes and experience things and respond to the experiences and have thoughts and feelings and purpose and awareness and consciousness and choices and fate. They make stuff up and believe it. Sometimes they disbelieve that which is factually true. Anything is possible, you see.

The unconditional love of the Oneness endures, expressed through each being on each planet throughout time and space. There is much that can only be experienced through being a soul in a body: loneliness, fear, chocolate ice cream…

Please rest, if you can, in the knowing that you are never alone, that your existence as a human is worthwhile, and that Love, your Source, the Oneness, can never be lost. ☾

Intention

Every intention has unintended consequence. So what? There are consequences to being unintentional as well. If you shy away from what you are intending, you have less voice and more trouble.

When you are clear and upfront with your intention, it is easier to see what fits and what doesn’t. You can continue on your path, if you know what your purpose is. Sometimes you might be sidetracked or make a detour, but clear intention gets you back on the trail without fear.

Intention acts like a beacon on a stormy night. It sets the tone for your life, and shores you up when your energy flags. Your intention for this lifetime can be deduced, if you are not quite certain, by how you have spent your time thus far.

Is your intention to accomplish your goals or is it to live in perpetual fear? Here is a secret: everyone intends to do what they came to do. And pretty much everyone does it, one way or another. Whatever does not get done will be waiting for you in the next lifetime, so you can do it now or then, but your hair is on fire, they say.

Look back over your life, look at your current life, and look at the plans you have for moving forward. Where is your intention in all of it? What are the strands you see woven throughout? What’s missing? What feels right? Where is the joy, the sorrow, the satisfaction?

Your intention does not need to be set so much as it needs to be recognized. Then you will know what to do, and why, and how. ☾

Kindness

There is a very gentle Self at the core of your being. The essence of the Human that you are. This is You, the embodiment of Kindness itself. You know this to be true.

You may not always feel so kind towards others, and you definitely are not always kind to yourself, you know. But that’s OK. Because behind everything, underneath everything, entwined with everything, although it might not seem predominant, kindness is running along. Kindness is the fundamental ground on which you are built, and while you may not always experience it, you can neither escape nor deny it. Kindness is therefore always available to you, at any moment, night or day. Always, kindness is within reach.

When you need it, call on it, and it will descend on you like a mantle of soft feathers. Kindness will warm and nourish you, whether or not you feel deserving. If you ask, it shall be given, without hesitation or doubt.

Kindness is the milk, as they say, of human experience. It is the bottom line. It is touching everything, always, without exception. You are kinder than you think. And so is everyone else.

Sometimes it is hard to make contact with the kindness that imbues each breath and heartbeat. We understand this. Being human is an act of faith. In the 3D world, so much is obscured, confusing, and painful; it is easy to feel full of fear and doubt. But if you look for kindness wherever you are, anytime, day or night, you will find it. You will always find it. If you don’t find it, keep looking. We promise, it is always present in each moment of your life.

Consider yourself an emissary, a bringer of kindness to the world. Make it your job to bring kindness to light, whenever, wherever you go. Point it out to yourself and others, make note of it on the fly. Kindness is forever demonstrating its presence and power to you. Bear witness in each moment of your life. ❀

Honor

To honor is to respect a thing or being as it is. To acknowledge its truth and purpose as it has seen fit to meet it. Honor is a gesture of recognition of the many ways a thing could go and the specific way it went.

Honor is the acknowledgment of the humanity each person must grapple with and rise above. To honor is to do no harm and to uplift the harmless into prominence. Honor is the fundamental unshakeable choice that is still a choice, and which shows the character of the ones who choose it.

It is a branching thing; it begets its own likeness. To behave honorably is to honor all around you; to honor another is to honor all as well.

There is a ripple effect from the actions of an honorable one. Honor is then spread around like butter; it becomes the norm, the smoothness, the melt. Honor becomes the standard of the day and then requires effort to remove.

Without honor there is a blankness waiting, to be filled by anything else instead. To generate honor in any situation is to exclude that which would degrade. Honor is the course of honor itself. It is a true thing. It is a choice. ❀

There is always movement somewhere

You may feel stuck or frozen at times, or lost, like things are not moving along the proper channels. But there is always something happening, whether you know it, or like it, or not. There is not really a thing such as stuckness, though it might be a feeling you have, or the interpretation you make, when things are slow.

You may be staring too hard in one direction, missing the flow happening right beside you, or towards the back, or just under the surface. Sometimes it helps to remember that this is the case. Sometimes it is easy to forget.

Try not to get so caught up in staring at the stuck bits that you believe that is all there is.

Nothing holds still forever, for better, or for worse.

Everything moves and changes.

Even if the things you want to be moving appear to be standing still, it is not generally the case.

We just want to say, it’s much easier to relax if you understand this simple thing. Even in the depths of difficult times, when movement seems impossible, somewhere in the world a bird is singing, and the ice has begun to thaw. ✩

Perfectionism: you’re doing it wrong

Perfection is not an ideal, dear ones, but a deadly, insidious disease. It kills dreams, it kills hope, it kills spontaneity. It damages relationships with self and with other, and encourages the growth of fear, grasping, and controlling behaviors.

In no way is the Perfect your friend.

In fact, although you find the idea a bit comforting – that there is someplace to end up that is unassailable, of course it’s a lovely idea – in fact it will only and always and every time let you down.

It doesn’t hold. It doesn’t remain.

Perfection happens in a fleeting moment, and dissolves again in the rapid blink of an eye.

There is no ground of perfection on which you can take a stand.

It is not right or good or infallible. It is only a breath, passing through.

Like this one.
And this next one.
And once again. ✩

Devotion

Some people think devotion is a state of enslavement, but in our view devotion is a state of liberation.

When you are devoted, it is an unshakable knowing of the truth of your path. Devotion is unwavering, uncomplicated, and free. Devotion is saturation in unconditional wellbeing, resting in the total experience of love.

Devotion is not a mental construct. It does not suck you dry; it fills you up, from the inside out, with energy and the will to carry on. It is not that you feel no pain in devotion – everyone’s stuff is still stuff, after all – but you may not perceive it as suffering. Devotion is confident in all the right places, and as such, no suffering needs to be borne.

The relief of devotion is palpable. No more energy wasted on questioning, worrying, weighing possibilities. The future, while not assured, is of little concern.

Devotion has a way of sharpening concentration, and allowing everything else to fall gently to the wayside. When devotion arises, it knows little else, but with devotion, what is known is everything.

How do you know if you are devoted to the right thing, person, precept, notion, practice, or ideals? You don’t. That is what devotion is for. To set aside the questions. To know. ☼

Negotiation

Negotiation is the art of filling the space between two things that do not meet. Ideally, there are three elements present. First, respect. Each party honors themselves and their needs, as well as the needs and existence of the other. Second, honesty. Each party must tell the truth about their priorities and limitations, and where they can flex. Third, openness. Willingness to see things a new way, willingness for outcomes not previously envisioned, willingness to embrace new perspectives.

Negotiation is a learning experience. When you enter it, you think you know what is happening and who the others are. You think you know yourself. You may, if the experience is successful, emerge with some different ideas. Approaching it as a growth opportunity, you will move beyond problem solving to a place of evolution, which is always cause to rejoice.

We invite you: come to the table with a low a level of attachment. Simultaneously, understand and acknowledge what is of greatest importance to you. Hold this lightly, but with integrity, and trust your companions to do the same.

Enter into negotiation – whether with yourself, another person, a community or an entity of some kind – with good faith and an uplifted manner. Trust that all will be well, and make it your mission to find that place where everyone meets in ease. ☾

Receive

Some people think that receiving is not an action but a state of passivity. This is untrue. Receiving must be an engaged action for it to have any effect.

Many things get in the way of receiving properly: deflecting, denying, rejecting, trying to give back right away, or to give away or pass along what has been received without fully digesting it. All of these responses are understandable. There is so much wrapped up in the idea of receiving. And yet.

Receiving is happening all the time, in many, many ways. You are antennae, attuned to all the vibrations, information, and offerings of the Universe. You can’t help receiving. With this card we encourage you to be selective in your attunement and fully able to take in that which you receive.

It is necessary, of course, to take in food and water, air and light, in order to survive. Many people acknowledge the necessity of love as well, but few practice taking it in.

There is love and beauty everywhere, and it is beamed to you all hours of the night and day. This doesn’t mean there is no pain or suffering, of course there is. But without receiving the healing vibrations of unconditional love, the stuff you are based in, how are you to withstand the challenges of life?

To practice receiving, give yourself a few minutes at a time, find a space where you will be less interrupted, and allow your gaze to soften. Find something beautiful or pleasing to look at. Find something peaceful to listen to. Find a nice smell, a nice taste, a pleasant texture of cloth or skin. Take a few minutes to breathe it in and allow it to diffuse into your cells. Imagine they are plumping up, glowing with the radiance of reception vibrating with health and well-being.

Practice this daily, without rejecting or squirming away from it, without having to share it with anyone else, and eventually you will attain mastery. And then you can work with receiving the things that seem less pleasant to accept, until at some point you will be able to receive the entirety of your life and the world in which it resides. ❀

Kindness to others without kindness to oneself is incomplete

Kindness to others is only part of the equation. If you cannot find it in your heart to make friends with yourself, then where does that really put you in life? Very lonely and sad, and false, in a way.

You can be the kindest person alive, in the outer sense, but if you have insufficient kindness towards your own follies and foibles and faults, you will never convince anyone of your sincerity. You will never be as trusted as you long to be, for who can be seen as trustworthy when they mistreat their own dear self?

Then those around you live in fear or concern about the day it all falls down and maybe takes them with it.

A house divided against itself cannot stand, and so reserving kindness for those around you and limiting or restricting the kindness you give yourself will make a weak vessel, which ultimately must fail.

Remember, you are as deserving of your own kindness and generosity of spirit as anyone else, even more so. How will you do your good work in the world, if your structure cannot hold, and if you are forsaken by the one who should stand by you each and every moment of your life? ✩

Joy

Joy is found in secret places, not always expressed aloud. Joy is a small thing, a large thing, a sensation beyond description, but you know when it arrives.

You may have noticed that any attempt to generate joy for the sake of joy very often fails. If it is joy you seek, bring joy to others, any way you can. If you do not know how to do this, then ask, observe, watch others, and learn what it is, this thing called joy.

Do not assume about joy. It is a quiet thing. It will let you know when it wants to come play. If you allow it, then you will eventually know it well. If you live your life in such a way that there is room enough for joy to visit, eventually joy will make a home with you.

Make friends with joy, nourish joy, and introduce joy to everyone you know. But you cannot command joy.

Joy does not come at anyone’s beck and call.

Joy is the result of a joyful life, not the cause of it.

Do not confuse the initial impulse with the outcome. ☼

Negotiation

Negotiation is the art of filling the space between two things that do not meet. Ideally, there are three elements present. First, respect. Each party honors themselves and their needs, as well as the needs and existence of the other. Second, honesty. Each party must tell the truth about their priorities and limitations, and where they can flex. Third, openness. Willingness to see things a new way, willingness for outcomes not previously envisioned, willingness to embrace new perspectives.

Negotiation is a learning experience. When you enter it, you think you know what is happening and who the others are. You think you know yourself. You may, if the experience is successful, emerge with some different ideas. Approaching it as a growth opportunity, you will move beyond problem solving to a place of evolution, which is always cause to rejoice.

We invite you: come to the table with a low a level of attachment. Simultaneously, understand and acknowledge what is of greatest importance to you. Hold this lightly, but with integrity, and trust your companions to do the same.

Enter into negotiation – whether with yourself, another person, a community or an entity of some kind – with good faith and an uplifted manner. Trust that all will be well, and make it your mission to find that place where everyone meets in ease. ☾

I love my BlueStar Oracle Deck! It has become an integral tool for dealing with stress and overwhelm. What a blessing! I use the deck to end my day on a positive note. Focusing on one issue that is causing my anxiety, I gently shuffle the cards until I feel ready, then pick the top card. The image is always soothing, so I let my eyes rest on it for a bit. I leaf through the booklet for the corresponding reading…it is always, always what I most needed to hear. I usually read it a few times, savoring the wisdom and comfort it brings. These cards – these messages from Ker’s guides – help me prepare for a night’s sleep in today’s turbulent times.

This is an amazing tool for assistance in the moment, support through the day and transformation of habitual negative thoughts. I began a daily ritual of picking a card that has turned into a highlight of my day. I pick a card and absorb the image and phrase, then read the guides’ message, letting it sink in. Their words go straight to the heart of the human struggle, and are always pertinent and expansive. Then I put my card on top of the deck, so I can see it through the closed case and touch in to that knowing throughout the day.

I am learning how to be a more relaxed, open, in-tune, aware, and accepting person through my daily mini-meditations. This little card deck has changed my life! Thank you Ker Cleary and BlueStar!

I’ve been using Ker’s deck consistently for a month and I love the clear photographs, channeled information in the booklet, and the positive messages that direct me back to my own knowledge and wisdom, self-care, and guidance. I’ve used The BlueStar Oracle Deck for myself in meditation, journal writing, and even with my hypnotherapy clients. I’ve offered intuitive readings using The BlueStar Oracle Deck and I’m impressed with how easy it is to use, and feels like a personal channeling session with Ker and her guides each time. If you haven’t bought this deck, I highly recommend you purchase it at your earliest convenience. I’ll be coming back for Ker’s two new Sacred Stones Oracle Card decks for her and her guides’ signature positive wisdom, encouragement, fun and joy.
