Hunger Games Catching Fire – The Chanukah Revolution
What is the revolution that you want to spread? What is your message? May the odds be ever in your favor.
Hi, I’m Marcus J. Freed. Welcome to Marcus Recommends. This is where we share great ideas and we celebrate life. It’s unscripted, unbiased, unrehearsed and it’s coming to you live from the studio here in LA.
Today, Marcus Recommends making sure you spread your power and spread your light into the world and today’s a special edition for Hunger Games – Catching Fire and the festival in Hanukkah. First, an idea from Hanukkah, then one from Catching Fire. There’s an idea our Hanukkah. We have our Menorah, the candelabra, the lights which are lit every single night for the eight nights of Hanukkah and there is a custom to actually have this just inside a window where it can be seen by the street, the idea of really publicizing the miracle of Hanukkah, spreading light into the world so as
many people see the light as possible.
The Mockingjay
Now over in Catching Fire in the Hunger Games Movie, there is really a lot of publicity going on for this rebellion, which is about the pop up. People are putting three fingers in the air. There’s the mockingjay’s symbol which Katniss has through the wedding dress which turns into a mockingjay if you haven’t seen the film yet. It’s right there. That’s not a plot spoiler. There’s just a fashion couture spoiler.
So throughout both of them, they’re really trying to spread symbols. They’re trying to spread ideas to literally try and help people catch fire in their hearts and in their minds and really begin a fire which is going to burn and burn about in revolution. And indeed, Hanukkah is also about revolution which a bunch of fighters trying to get back to Jerusalem which they do succeed in.
Know Your Power
So my question is: What’s the power that you would like to spread into the world? What is your message? What is your equivalent of candles in the window or of a mockingjay symbol, something which you are trying to bring about? What is your particular reason that you’ve come to the planet for
this lifetime, this incarnation? Why are you here?
I’ve thought about this over time. I’ve had various reasons, various different things driving me at different points in my life. At one time, I was very much about plays and really trying to spread spiritual messages through plays and so I performed a lot. Other times, it was yoga. Now I’m very much trying to promote my new yoga book but also helping people get in touch with what’s important to them and find a way of really using diving gifts through business, through entrepreneurship. So this is really what I’m trying to do through my website, MarcusJFreed.com, and indeed through these particular videos.
So really try to get in touch with your personal message. What is your mission? Why do you think you’re here? What is the one thing that you would love to spread on the world? What is your particular legacy? When you can get really in tune with this, aligned with this, you’ll find that more abundance flows. There’s a deeper sense of fulfillment. There’s more inner peace. There’s more enjoyment. Many amazing things happen as a result.
Are you Catching Fire?
I hope you can use this to catch fire and really find some deep fulfillment with what you’re doing in the world and spread your work farther and wider. Have a great day. Be happy. Stay happy, and elebrate life.
