I woke in time with the equinox this morning, around 6.48, it had rained most of the night and at just after 7 we had storms, washing our world clean, sky electric with energy, feeling exceedingly peaceful/calm and observant.
Fat cat was reclusive on Monday so figured he was under the weather, also not eating his usual vast amounts {bit like J if not eating then something definitely wrong}, on Tuesday he sought me out and I saw his leg was badly swollen, so thought he had banged it jumping up at the window, he isn't quite a agile as he once was and his sight is failing so he often knocks himself on the railings {traditional Spanish house remember}, so we sit and I stroke him with love - a mantra of love following my hands, spots of blood reveal that he has ripped a dew claw, but a day of constant "love ins" and he is back to his saucy self, eating like the fat cat he is, but still inclined for much contact, he is my familiar and so if he lands on me I stop what I am doing and slip into a meditative state.....it is said that we give with one hand and receive with the other, I believe we can give with both and receive with both, just depends on the energy we are giving and receiving........
Keeping focussed in what brings us joy is the only way to keep ourselves balanced in this ever chaotic world; D who seemed to hit a low again a few days ago is lifting back up again, I left him to it and just kept my mind on my own peace and sending him and myself love, crochet is so good for keeping my mind focussed as well as fat cat :) So seems I have created a good space for myself. Poor D was hit with double whammy yesterday which was a real test, not only is the health card he has not worth the plastic it is printed on he has ru out of money and went to the bank for a loan till next week, {they are very good like that here, can go in and ask for 50€ and they'll hand it over, just like the old days in the UK when the bank manager made the decisions}only to find the manager is on hols till Monday ooops big ooops for him, I told him I would give him the dosh for his prescription {I have a my much diminished tooth fund} - but after much thought and chat he realised he had created this situation an deep inside he doesn't want to keep taking the pills, he only has high BP due to "stress" it is a mental/emotional thing not physical. He asked me what I would do....mmmmmm....whatever gives you greatest peace of mind, personally I would start a mantra {I am a healthy or whatever sounds/feels good to him} and begin each day with it, remember it many times through the day and let it be what I go to sleep with, also visualise having my BP taken and then seeing it as reading what I want to see, when the voice of fear enters the mind say Hi n Bye and repeat the mantra........today he has woken with a mission to get his guitar up on line and sold, he hsa been looking at all the shops that sell vintage guitars and seeing that he had set his sights low, so he is going to be sending a lot of emails out and watch this space :)
This next one really moves us on a step or 2 LOL but I used this technique the day before yesterday as I took responsibility for creating D in a dour mood :) well something happened that's for sure
I heard about a therapist in Hawaii who cured a complete ward of criminally insane patients--without ever seeing any of them. The psychologist would study an inmate's chart and then look within himself to see how he created that person's illness. As he improved himself, the patient improved.
'What were you doing within yourself that caused those people to change?'
"'I was simply healing the part of me that created them,' he said. I didn't understand. Dr. Len explained that total responsibility for your life means that everything in your life- simply because it is in your life--is your responsibility. In a literal sense the entire world is your creation.
"Whew. This is tough to swallow. Being responsible for what I say or do is one thing. Being responsible for what everyone in my life says or does is quite another. Yet, the truth is this: if you take complete responsibility for your life, then everything you see, hear, taste, touch, or in any way experience is your responsibility because it is in your life. This means that terrorist activity, the president, the economy or anything you experience and don't like--is up for you to heal. They don't exist, in a manner of speaking, except as projections from inside you. The problem isn't with them, it's with you, and to change them, you have to change you.
"I know this is tough to grasp, let alone accept or actually live. Blame is far easier than total responsibility, but as I spoke with Dr. Len, I began to realize that healing for him and in ho 'oponopono means loving yourself.
"If you want to improve your life, you have to heal your life. If you want to cure anyone, even a mentally ill criminal you do it by healing you.{Ho'oponopono}
This is the energy of this year it is all about rebirth, rejuvenation and release. We can only move through these processes and not around them. In the recent past we use to move around our obstacles. Now we have to learn to move through our obstacles. March is all about water and feeling. So feel what you need to feel. Observe your emotions, but don’t get involved. Master your mind, go quiet and within and find the peace there.{Essence}
