Fabulously Cheeky

Women have wanted to be beautiful since the beginning of time. Cleopatra used to bathe in milk and put kohl around her eyes to make herself look beautiful, and even though she had 6 children, she is still considered to be one of the most beautiful women that ever lived. Perhaps the pharao didn’t mind her stretch marks? Hmm…

There is a saying, that “Beauty is in the eye of the beholder.” What exactly does this mean? It means that it is the eye that sees, that decides what is beautiful. This means that there is no fixed idea of what it means to be beautiful, no objective beauty that everyone can agree on. So, how can we try to become more beautiful if nobody can even define what beauty is?

It is a well known fact that the idea of beauty is different in different cultures, and not only that, the idea of beauty can even change over time within the same culture. Women who were considered beautiful a few hundred years ago, may no longer be considered beautiful at all in our time. Just think of those cool pictures that they used to paint with naked women in the woods. They all had round bellies, big breasts, big hips and pretty hefty looking thighs. Those women were considered incredible beauties at the time. Now women are supposed to be very skinny, with totally flat bellies, and if you ask anyone what they think of those curvy beauties of the past, most likely, they will describe them as fat, flabby and definitely NOT attractive. So, evidently, beauty seems to be just an idea that can change over time, rather than a fixed concept that we can compare ourselves with.

So, even though we are supposed to be skinny and have flat stomachs, which I probably won’t have no matter how skinny I get, at least I don’t have to force myself into a corset and try to achieve a 20″ waistline, like they had to in the past!!! Those poor ladies kept fainting all the time because they couldn’t breathe! I can’t even imagine what that must have felt like! What stupidity in the name of beauty!

Did you know that if you ask most women if they are happy with the way they look, they will say no? Some women may have enough confidence to say “Yes, apart from…” (you fill in the blank). But even the most gorgeous models don’t love the way they look – they just know how to enhance their most beautiful assets, and hide the rest.

The fact is, NOBODY is perfect! And why should they be? Have you ever seen a perfect tree? Unless it is grown on a christmas tree farm where they trim off any branches sticking out too much, a tree, as you find it in nature, is never perfect. A big branch is pointing one way, a crooked one another way, but still, it is perfectly beautiful in its own way. But when it comes to people, we just don’t see it that way. We think we have to be more perfect than what nature has made us!

Women, especially, learn very early in life that they are not perfect. It doesn’t matter who is telling you these things, but if anyone starts pointing out flaws about the way you look, it sticks and turns into self-consciousness later. Even children become very critical about how others look, and when they become teenagers, they start realizing that they are not perfect, either, and then they, too, start suffering from the same negative self image, just like the rest of us.

I remember growing up too fast, and being told that I had arms like sticks, a neck like a giraffe, that my cat eye glasses made me look like a nerd and that the pants my grandmother bought for me were “liver colored.” Now that was more than enough to make me feel like an “ugly duckling,” and I spent my teenage years hoping and praying that I would one day turn into a swan.

I am sure every woman out there has a similar story, and we all end up feeling like ugly ducklings instead of learning to focus on our postive assets instead. There is always going to be something that isn’t perfect, and other things are are very pretty. We just have to learn to focus on what is pretty, instead of becoming obsessed about what is not.

One of the things we have to learn about in the Age of Aquarius is what energy is and how to use it. Energy is invisible. We may not be able to see or feel it, and it may even be difficult to measure it with scientific instruments. The technology up to now simply hasn’t focused a whole lot on detecting “energy.” This is also why it is difficult to prove scientifically that homeopathy actually works. The instruments that are available are just not sensitive enough to detect the energy in homeopathic remedies, and the scientific conlusion is therefore that homeopathy contains nothing of medicinal value, and that any effect of the remedies are simply due to something called a “placebo effect.”

A placebo effect is what you call it when healing happens because someone believes that the remedy will cure, even though there may be no medicinal effect in the remedy that was taken. However, there is a big flaw in this kind of thinking, and that is the fact that homeopathy also works for babies and animals, and babies and animals don’t have any beliefs about whether or not they are going to get well. So forget placebo effect. There is more to homeopathy than that!

I believe that some day, when science learns to understand more about energy, and their instruments become more sensitive, they will eventually realize the effectiveness of homeopathy. Because homeopathy is energy medicine, which is the kind of medicine that the coming Age of Aquarius supports, I call homeopathy “the medicine of the future.”

Considering the fact that the medical profession will do anything to remain in a position of power, it probably won’t come as a big surprise to you that there are actually forces out there actively working against homeopathy so that traditional medicine won’t lose any ground! Right now, there are sites on the internet who are purposely trying to discredit homeopathy. The newspapers, especially in England, are working with the medical establishment to do whatever they can to eliminate homeopathy as a healing modality. And in United States, there are states where you can only practise homeopathy if you are an MD, and if you aren’t an MD, you can be arrested and your business can be destroyed! (It seems the “dark ages” are still here, since they can’t allow people to make their own choices when it comes to health care, and they punish the people who are trying to help others get well!) They don’t even consider the fact that if you are just a homeopath, and not an MD, you can actually put more energy into studying homeopathy, which will ultimately make you a better homeopath!

As the situation stands, homeopaths are not allowed to tell anyone what homeopathy can do, and they are not even allowed to use words such as “treat” and “cure,” since those words are assigned to medical doctors only. Again, we can see how the people who are in power resists losing that power, mainly because so much money is involved in keeping the medical industry going. Sickness has become a huge business in this country, and they won’t easily give up their advantage to a form of alternative medicine that can’t even be measured with scientific instruments.

Right now, they are still in power, but luckily, they are fighting a losing battle, because alternative medicine is here to stay! People are tired of medical malpractice, side effects, and the cost of medical care, and the time has come to start looking for better alternatives!

Traditional Medicine
Now there is another group I would love to get rid of. Well, maybe not get totally rid of, because they are good for some things, like diagnosis, surgery and emergencies. But, boy do they do a lot of harm to people, too, and luckily, people are finally starting to sue when doctors make mistakes.

One of the most outragous examples of medical malpractise I have ever come across was about a lady who went in to have a breast lump removed. When she woke up from the anesthesia, she discovered that they had operated on the wrong breast. Shortly thereafter, she went back in to have surgery on the other breast, and even though the docs had made the mistake of operating on the wrong breast the first time, she still got billed for both the operations!!! Outrage!!! Why do we allow doctors to get away with it? Why do they have so much power?

Medical doctors are in a position of power because they have made people think that traditional medicine is “the only way.” And when people started questioning this, they were not happy at all. People started saying “What about alternative medicine?” “What about homeopathy, naturopathy, chiropractic, ayurvedic, and acupuncture?”

Slowly, slowly, some of these alternative practices have managed to get a foothold next to traditional medicine. Ayurvedic and acupuncture have long traditions in the east, and if it works there, why not here? So, those modalities, as well as chiropractic, have finally become socially accepted, but what about homeopathy? Have you heard about homeopathy? Do you have any idea what it is? My guess is, you probably don’t.
If you are interested in finding out more about homeopathy, I’ll tell you more about it tomorrow.

This is another group who will be unhappy about the change. In the Age of Pisces, the priests were “the missing link” between people and God. People had no personal experience of God, and had to trust and believe in what the priests (authority figures) were telling them. Did you know that a whole bunch of authoritative priests got together to decide whether women actually had a soul, while their own people were sexually abusing young boys behind closed doors! What hypocrisy! These people think they are qualified to decide whether women have souls??? This is what I call ignorant, arrogant and pompous behavior, and luckily, this too shall pass!

In the Age of Aquarius, we no longer need to be bogged down with dogmatic belief. We no longer have to be part of a fixed group, called a religion, because now there is a new concept – religiousness and spirituality, which basically means that everyone can walk their own paths and find their own connection to God, or the divine, whatever you choose to call it. So, who needs priests, beliefs and blind faith, when we can walk our own paths and find the truth for ourselves? So, yes, the priests and religions have to go, too, and if we survive the transition, then hopefully, we’ll get to enjoy and celebrate the New Age and a new kind of life. (Sounds like a cliché, I know, but it is not just a concept. Wait, and you’ll see, the New Age is actually real.)

I don’t know about you, but am incredibly grateful that I get to be part of this huge change that we are in the middle of right now. For someone who has probably been a witch through numerous lifetimes and most likely been sacrificed and burned at the stake for being opinionated in the past, I find it unbelievably exciting to have a blog where I can be one of the people who are here to disturb the old and help bring in the new without having to be burned at the stake this time. Yes, the transition is bound to bring chaos, suffering and pain to many people, but we need to remember that “this too shall pass,” and that better times are coming.

I also find it interesting, and even amusing, to watch how the people in power are resisting this change. They try to prop each other up the best they can, and they are extremely unhappy when the public finds out about the bonuses they have given themselves while the rest of the people were losing their jobs and houses. Do they really believe that people are going to just keep “taking it?” Well, they can always hope, I guess, but things are bound to change. Why? Because the energy of the Age of Aquarius is already here, and it no longer supports abusive authority figures or abused victims.

Aquarius is all about change, being open to new ideas, learning to cooperate instead of competing, expanding through technology and learning more about what energy is and how to work with it. The global energy no longer supports victim consciousness and abusive authority figures who are trying to scratch each others backs just to remain in power. I believe that Obama is supposed to play a huge role in this transition! Let’s just hope he has enough strength to stand up to the old power structure, since he certainly won’t get any support from the people who are in power right now! And, we must remember the old saying “Out of chaos, great stars are born!” Blessings to Obama – I don’t envy your task!

The new Age of Aquarius is upon us and the Age of Pisces is finished. The Age of Pisces started around the time when Jesus was crucified. This very tragic event became the beginning of a whole era of new authority figures and victims. (The authority figures actually created the victims). We looked up to and trusted authority figures, and did what we were told without questioning them, or our own hearts. Did you know that the soldier who dropped the bomb on Hiroshima and Nagasaki slept well that night, and never even questioned what he had done, simply because he had only followed orders, which is what soldiers are supposed to do!

But soldiers weren’t the only ones who “followed orders.” Women have always had to do what they were told by authority figures in power, even when it was potentially harmful to their bodies. Just look at childbirth practices, and you’ll see what I mean. Did you know why women had to lie on their backs to give birth to their children? I heard that one of the French kings (Louis something or rather) loved to peak through a whole in the curtain when someone was giving birth. And because he couldn’t see very well from where he stood, he suggested that the woman lies on her back with her legs open, so he could get a better view. Since the doctors also liked this arrangement, it stuck, even though it is the worst possible position for any woman to give birth. The natural inclination is to work with gravity, to sit up, stand up, walk around or get on all fours. But, no, she was told to lie down and push, with no help from gravity. So, it is no wonder that births became complicated events that had to be done in hospitals instead of at home!

Hospitals have a lot to answer for, even though they are supposed to “help” people. Take a peak at childbirth practises from 50-60 years ago – not only were women on their backs, they were also completely anesthetized before giving birth. Then the midwife or nurse would push on the belly until the baby came out!!! Some great experience that must have been for baby and mom! Welcome to the world, little baby! Sorry about the violent entry!

A lady I was working for at some point, actually experienced this when she gave birth to her daughter. She told me that when she was in her late twenties, she had to go into the hospital for a severe belly ache. They “put her under” and when she woke up, she felt much better. Two days later, the nurses asked her if she wanted to see her baby. She said “What baby?” She hadn’t even known that she was pregnant! She had just thought she was putting on weight, without knowing why. I wonder how she could have missed the fact that she no longer had her periods for nine months! Or that the baby was kicking! Beats me! Maybe she thought it was just a bad case of indigestion? Poor girly!

So, why did we put up with this kind of nonsense? Why did we trust the so called “authorities?” Why did we allow them to make us into victims? Why didn’t we rebel? Why didn’t we tell the leaders of our countries to work things out on paper, instead of killing innocent people with guns and bombs to get their points across? And, why didn’t we tell our male docs that WOMEN are the authorities on childbirth and nursing practices, shocking as it may be, and that our bodies have their own internal wisdom that needs to be honored? It happened because we lived in a time of victim consciousness, and this is one of the things that has to change when we enter the Age of Aquarius. Now, the time has come to take our power back, to claim our rights as women, to become personally responsible for our own actions, as well as our health and well being, and to stop trusting authority figures with blind faith.

If you had a beautiful birth experience, and want to share your story, please comment below. I love to hear beautiful birth stories. (No victim stories, please! My vision for this blog is to share and put energy into the vision of what we want the future to be like. That is why I only want beautiful stories. Let’s leave the past and hold a more positive vision for the future).

As you may have guessed by now, this blog is not for the fainthearted. It is a blog for the fabulously cheeky, unconventional, individual, eccentric, funky, rebellious, freethinking, health conscious earth goddess type who wants to break free from the old and is ready to create what she wants in her life. Change is going to happen, whether we like it or not, and whatever we create now, will help shape our future. Because the creative energy of the universe flows through every one of us, we can all become co-creators of a new future, which is actually very exciting! This is what the movie “The Secret” is all about. The Secret teaches us how to visualize what we want and take positive action to move forward, instead of focusing on what we don’t want, which is a very important thing to remember these days with all the political and economical chaos we are facing! Now, more than ever, we have to hold a positive vision for the future and do what we can to make a difference. Therefore, it is our obligation to the coming generations, and to ourselves, to follow through on our dreams and visions, as long as we are careful what we wish for! Now is the time to say good-bye to the old, and welcome in, as well as create, the new Age of Aquarius! It is my hope that this blog can become a hub for women of all ages to get together to inspire and support each other in this adventure we call life. We can help each other move forward with a positive attitude, and we can start by questioning everything that doesn’t work (in our lives, relationships and habits) and focus on how we can break out of the old and create what we want instead! Please feel free to comment anytime – your comments are always welcome!

Hello World!
My name is Mati Fuller and I live in Colorado. I am a wife and mother of two, a homeopathic healer and the author of a homeopathic psychology book called “Beyond the Veil of Delusions.” I just went through menopause, which is supposedly a time to give birth to yourself after spending years giving birth to your children and raising them. I discovered, however, that children is not the only thing you can give birth to. Take this blog, for example. For someone who is as technologically challenged as me, figuring out how to set up this blog was like giving birth to an elephant – labor pains for weeks, lots of heavy breathing and screaming, a big stretch, a huge push, and then, incredible relief, especially when I was able to hook up the subscription form in the sidebar to the email software and get it to work! So, now that my elephant blog is on its feet, I have to have something to write about.

Since I was born hopelessly vain, naturally, we have to talk about fashion, makeup and body image, but this is not going to be just another blog about celebrity gossip. I’m just not superficial enough to care about who ran off with who, who had a fight in public, and who went skinny dippy under the full moon and was caught on film by a photographer who happened to be lurking behind a big rock on the beach. Entertaining as it may be, it doesn’t change your life. Life is supposed to be more than just pure entertainment. We are here to question everything we experience, and learn from it all. That is how we grow, and growth is what it is all about.

If I were to describe what kind of person I am in one word or less, creative would be the word of preference. My life is always in a state of inspiration and creativity with ideas bubbling up from within. As far back as I can remember, I have always questioned everything that is old and conventional while visualizing the world being a better place. If you want to put a “label” on me, I see myself as a bohemian visionary, and I would love to share my vision of life with like minded people, so welcome to my blog!
