Esoterically speaking......

we are heading into the energy of the Full Moon on Wednesday also known as Wesak; a time when the energies of Love & Light [personified as Christ and Buddha]merge; a time for us to link into this - it is not a time of action, but about absorbing/storing up, whatever lesson you are trying to learn right now will be intensified all opportunities will be there if we have the *sense* to see them; watch your thoughts and feelings; be aware of the NOW at every available opportunity, when washing up, cleaning your teeth, waiting in line, use your mind creatively/positively; open your heart and mind to all seen and unseen......

Tomorrow is a major holiday in Spain and still taken quite seriously - so nought will be open in the village, when we first came not even the bars were open whether this has changed as the want to earn more money has taken over I don't know, will take a wander and see manana.........

The Art Of Focus
Many of us are sensitive to energy, so we make our homes a sanctuary and only leave
when we have fully prepared ourselves. We may use gemstones, essential oil, or
talismans, or perhaps we call on our angels or surround ourselves in a bubble of
light. But we should be conscious of what we are seeking to accomplish. It is
important to remember that if we want to shield ourselves, we might inadvertently
keep out the good that is coming our way. All of our tools can be helpful if we use
them wisely and keep ourselves engaged in all the world has to offer.
If we instead seek to filter distractions, than we can be like prospectors panning
for gold. We learn to filter when we are children as we learn about the world around
us. At first every leaf on the ground is a reason to stop and investigate. But as we
learn where to focus our attention, the rest becomes background. We don't cut
ourselves off from the world, we merely shift our focus.
As humans, we don't always know what is good for us. Sometimes what appears to be a
negative situation contains a gem of wisdom that leads to our highest growth. Rather
than focusing our thoughts on what we want to keep out of our experience, we may
want to turn the light of our attention to the good we'd like to create while
leaving room for something better. By doing this, we allow space for the wisdom of
the universe to work its magic on our behalf. If we trust the universe, we know that
good is present even if it doesn't look good on the surface. When we shift our focus
this way, we actually attract those things into our lives, and the rest falls away
without the effort of filtering. By practicing the art of focus, we invest our
attention and energy into making our lives a positive experience.
