Dear Friends and Community,
What I began last night I could not finish. The nights seem darker these days. So much to hold if we dare to be brave enough to look and see what there is to witness. And even if we do not avail ourselves to image or word, we know because we feel…if we are brave enough to feel. And so I stopped because I want to offer the only light there can be to this time. And that is our own. And there too, we must be so brave to allow it to shine.
And so I began…
Where are you Little Star? Speaking to each of us, and the divine essence that we are. (Please allow yourself to read this.) That which is housed within ourselves. Our inner navigation. True intelligence, our consciousness, intuition, true self, history. It really does not matter if you believe it or not, it won’t change what is true. Ignoring it does not take it away, it does not lose its value or worth. Denial will not diminish it, yet forgotten, we believe we are here to navigate life alone and separate from that which allows us to be here, and each other, each trying to secure the island one imagines they are.
Our culture, our time, has plunged us into a deep sleep and forgetfulness. Nothing new, as each new age has done the same, leading us incrementally to this moment where we can no longer imagine time travel as our own ability to grasp from the past the wisdom of all ages. To realize our consciousness as oracles, sages, seers shamans, saints, Buddha’s and Christ’s, as prophets, mystics and gurus, whispering to us, in our silence, and journeys, ‘you are not going back far enough, to realize what greatness you have to offer to your future’.
And so I have realized myself as a time traveler. I know I am not alone, and perhaps you have realized it too, of yourself, when you feel the pull of the past, that can only turn you inward to yourself and upward towards the beyond. Beyond the most recent past, beyond the past of a few generations to the beginning of time, when the foundations of Earth, and the Law of the Universe were set, when Truth was established, and choice given to us to abide it or not, with the condition of being forewarned that to lose the balance is to lose it all. And with each generation and time, over the course of many civilizations, we have inched ever closer to losing that balance. We have not used knowledge to secure our humanity.
Where are you Little Star? So hard to find our light when it seems we have to attend to what is most dark in our time, in our culture, in our country, in our government, in the world, in our life, and let us not forget in ourselves. To be a true time traveler, we will have to be so brave as to sort is all out…to see it all. We are the only territory least traveled.
And so I land here. I will continue down the page, after the schedule and events for Heart Space. The work of my heart as I have come to experience, is to realize our “star” our light, and offer it to what appears most dark.
All of our classes offer a way into your own light and depth.

Blessing and Scourge…
…Light and dark, and all the rest that seem in opposition to each other…past and future, here and now, time and space…all of them degrees of what truly exist. What they are missing, is the dimension of our own experience with them. The dimension of duration where we use one to move towards the next. And we do so not just for ourselves, not just for the island we feel we are and need to secure, to keep safe from all those who we imagine, would take what is ours. It seems so foolish that we have missed the very reason of our being. Come so far to know so little of real things. That we have missed the value of our human birth so as to grow into our humanity to become human beings.
And yet we have by and large missed it. But not all of us. We do try don’t we? So we are called, in our way, by way of our unique personality, on the path we have chosen to both grow and travel, to be a blessing among mankind and not a scourge. A gift offering to what appears as most dark right now. The scourge is as real as the blessing, and it is the choice many have made to protect their island. It is a cold, and lonely barren land. Joyless with no trust, or love to share, making fear look like power among those ill advised, ill informed.
Now, you may wonder, is it too late to go back so far to find a more potent and meaningful way to be here? How…with so much to study…so much to muddle through, so much to learn, and remember, and how now, at this time, with so much to do, with so much to try to protect, with already so much eroded and slipping away, how can I, any of us, make our little light shine a blessing on this scourge?
Blessing…the manifestation of our light as Love, first and foremost, and as compassion and kindness, as humanity, as joy and to be sure as grace…which is the doer of our work, our helper, and healer, our prayers and guides, visions, angels, each showing up when most needed…never doubt them, as they are but aspects of the Light that there is to perceive, experience and offer. And to realize this, as well, each our choice to use our higher self against the choices of the ill informed to manifest their lowest potential to cause great harm.
Scourge… a virus, thing, or person and persons, that bring suffering and affliction to others…a plague of misfortune, a menacing evil perpetuating punishment, burden, misery and torment. In people, this is a choice. A miserable dis-ease, like a virulent toxin or poison that can only do harm to what ever is in its sight to torment next. A vindictive dullness with the power to tip the balance, should we stand idly by and allow, due to fear,shock, and grief that can will, and does, paralyze even the bravest among us. I will add that our bravery is most needed, as I feel we each are so vulnerable and not safe. We have to be informed to insure our own safety. We cannot afford to look away.
I know what I know and it is a fearsome thing at times to know where we are heading. Many are fearful with little or no knowing. I am not sure we can do what is needed now, only because, I know that not many of us pay enough attention to what has happened incrementally over time to get us to this place of denial and to give to this moment what is most needed…ourselves. Our attending attention is needed. Our light is needed.
Into that light each of us can travel. We can journey on the wind that connects us to the here and now, the past and future, time and space. We can ask to know what each of us most need to know about what we each can offer to this time. We need to be creative and co-creative. We need to be in loving community. We must fight a brave battle to overcome the scourge of separation within ourselves first…these are things we can request in our stillness, in our silence, in our prayers. We can just ask. We never think to just ask. And in that asking is a long line of beings waiting for us to journey with them to places in the stream of time and knowing that we might not imagine as possible. Our reason and purpose for being here can be discerned. Each of our awakenings persist and our sustained by our suffering here. They urge us forward. They demand more of us than to just allow them to make us miserable. Please allow yourself to find what you need to know from both the past and beyond,that will
allow those of us who truly want to attend to this dark scourge, the knowing we need to offer blessings not just here and now, but for the future of our humanity as human beings. Be still, be silent. Turn off the world for some time each day to hear what is in the wind, in the voice of time, in the whispering of our own light that can and will co-create with us. There we are informed where we can offer our best light, and use of time and resources to what will help most what we are most appalled by, injustices that we are most concerned about, freedoms we fear most about losing. There are enough of them sadly and each day something more vile, more sorrowful, to keep sustained our fight for our light to burn bright, should we so choose.
I know for some I sound a bit crazed. Thank you for noticing. I am a time traveler, and I am learning from the best among whom have ever existed…they are waiting to tell what they know, to whomever will ask. You see, I just had to know.
Contemplation sometimes will come more easily on the wings of words and stories. I suggest Reality, by Peter Kingsley. He has offered that we have given support…a catafalque, to a civilization that has already died, and that our work now is to stop fooling ourselves into thinking we can put new wine into this dead wine skin. We must emerge out from these ashes to co-create a future…should there be left some balance to work with. For all those excited by that prospect, Reality is a great treasure, for those frightened by it, read it to find wings you did not know you have. And for those who deny it…that is the easiest thing to do. We are made to do hard things, don’t be so wasteful with what has been given to us as invisible wings to fly on.
Count your blessings every day….they number into the millions…like the Stars in the heavens…you are counted among them.
Peace and blessings,
Denise Yocco
