Laka is the Goddess of Hula. More than a dance, hula is an essential part of the life in Hawai'i. It is treated with such respect that dancers adhere to strict traditions when gathering the plants for their costumes and the hula altar. Hula is a complext ritual, a form of worship, a spiritual practice, a discipline.
Laka brings inspiration through submission to a higher power. Ho'oulu is a type of possession that takes an acceptable work and transforms it into an excellent one. Ho'oulu has been said to change mediocre artistic endeavors into magnificent ones. If you are seeking inspiration, Laka can give you the "surge of strength and control that gets a job finished." Laka's altar teaches that tapping into inspiration and its related spurts of energy and growth requires connection, balance of male and female, openness, and a special place to work from. Sometimes the most important work you can do is to provide a space for the muse to enter. You may need to relax, get more in touch with nature, or both.
Openness and connection require that you be in touch with yourself and the earth. Male and female can be balanced by alternating periods of activity and passivity. Aggressive periods of tackling a task need to be interspersed with periods of calm and reflection, so that you may accomplish your goals with excellence.
Periods of re-creation can be as important as the work itself, as they allow you to renew your inspiration. Inspiration flows best when you have a special space from which to work. This space may be mental, physical, or both. Whatever it may be in your situation, Laka's inspiration beckons you to enter your sacred space so that your beauty can unfold and grow.
Calling on the rays of light and friendship that connect us all, I send out to you all the energy and love you need at this time. Revel in the boost of energy I send to you while I joyfully welcome the boost from you with open arms. With heartfelt gratitude, I thank you for being a part of this energy share.

Enjoy every moment and live the passionate life you intend it to be.
