Censorship, shooting stars and another eclipse...

Censorship is once again at the heart of the
Beijing Olympics - and not in China, it's happening right here in
Australia. A GetUp ad, featuring a Tibetan woman, was booked, paid for and confirmed to air on either side of the Opening Ceremony - but it never showed

With August being a month for much
celestial activity, there will be a meteor shower on August 12th. With
a bit of a window around its arrival, the evening of the 12th of August
and the morning of the 13th of August will bring forth the maximum of
the Perseid meteor shower. Up to 80 shooting stars may be visible each
hour! And then on August 16th, we will experience a full moon lunar
eclipse.

So then, the meteor shower is bringing in energies of fairy dust, like a
sprinkling of light and beauty, magic and love, this cosmic event will
only serve to make us feel good. Recharging our batteries and
rejuvenating ourselves through these energies will be ever so possible.
We will have the opportunity to laugh, feel a lightness and joy, to
play with our brothers and sisters, to enjoy having many things fall
into place effortlessly, and to feel good once again.

On August 16th, we will experience a lunar eclipse and full moon. During
this time, we will have the opportunity to experience and examine our
shadow selves, what is inside of us, what our fears are, and we may
feel and emptiness and rather spooky energy. It may feel that the light
is temporarily gone and that we are only connected to a strange and
dark space. We may not want to be alone then, and thus crave the
companionship and connections to others.

When we experience these opportunities to
really see the aspects of ourselves that we would prefer to hide from
others, we can feel vulnerable, inadequate, and almost powerless. But
by embracing the energies that these cosmic events are here to support,
love them and allow them to be utilized in their purest form, we can
then let them go and move forward once again. It is then that we have
even more gratitude for the love of another, or perhaps are then more
able to see and have love for the seeming inadequacies of our brothers
and sisters, as we know that we are not perfect either.{energy alert}

The greatest gift a parent can give a child, is the ability to
become independently happy.

And the greatest gift a child can give a parent is
exercising that ability. And the greatest gift a child can give a parent is
exercising that ability.
Happily,

Agreement is the glue that holds realities together

Lumping is a term I use to describe it when we decide we're going to be like everyone else. We "lump ourselves in" with a collective of people who are all appearing to have the same thing going on in their lives.

As an example let's say that the crowd believes that gaining weight happens as a result of our eating (instead of our thinking) habits. If we agree with them, then we'll surely be concerned with every little thing we eat and therefore set ourselves up for getting fat.
It works the same with diseases. If, for instance, we agree that a particular disease, the Black Crud, is running rampant throughout the population, then we run the risk of getting it. Our agreement with everyone else who believes in it creates an opening for us to experience it. If, however, a well-meaning friend warns us that the Black Crud is spreading, and we choose to withhold our agreement and our belief in it, then we will not be subjected to it.
It's at the moment that we lend our agreement to a belief that we bring it to life.

My Intention for today is:


I Intend that I am
watching my thoughts much closer and I am remembering that my agreement
is a precious tool only to be used after careful consideration.

It's Sunday.......

Important message to all women
Let us begin:

Psychological Healing of the Divine Feminine

These are important times for the healing of the feminine spirit

What are you doing my sisters? What is this behavior you put upon yourselves and allow to destroy your precious spirits? For far too long, and I mean thousands of years, my Sisters of the Light have endured the most heinous acts of mankind, from sexual abuse of all sorts at the hands of numerous types of predators.

NO LONGER SHALL YOU ACCEPT SUCH BEHAVIORS FOR YOURSELVES!

Here me well Ladies of the Court ~ THERE IS NO TIME LEFT FOR SUCH SHENANIGANS that would hurt you!

What I am saying here is that it is now time to release and surrender to the Light

all 3rd-Dimensional relationships which no longer serve the purpose of the Light.

Send with honor, love, and respect your wishes and gratitude for all each relationship has served you – and accept nothing but the best now for yourselves

Many of you have been transmuting the darkest of energies to heal the Divine Feminine.

I tell you now that YOUR WORK IS COMPLETE.

The planet needs Ladies of Light, Ladies of Love – to set the example for the entire planet.

The Quantum Awakening
As the eclipses of 2008 begin their slow sinewy dance around us we are asked to enter places of good fortune that have accrued thru time. Accruings that have long ago divided and multiplied. Fortuitous intersections in time created by kindnesses that were given freely to others without thought of self or subject will finally be brought to the surface between the times of February 2008 to September 2008 buried deep within the treasure trove of the eclipses. Saying NO to any generosity will plug up the flow of opulence.

You are in a place and time when you are just now remembering that you have the ability to expand and create your world however you chose. The chaos the destruction, the disease, the disasters on earth can be changed in a blink, if enough believe this to be a truth.

Perform from a place of knowing. As one that walks the tight wire Do you want to get up on that tight wire with a knowing, or with a maybe? These are your everyday life choices. The wire is your next thought, your next word, your next decree. Create purposefully with a knowing not just a thinking of maybe
Delete the impossibilities that you have received while growing up. Earth is full of limits—speed limits, time limits, credit card limits, parking limits, everything has a limit. In your true being there are no limits.
You are not here to putt about, to grow frail and old and diseased. You are here to grasp completion and see in totality – why you have existed at all. You are not here to be in pain, to be unloved, to be abused, to be poor, these are all time consuming habits. There is nothing that you cannot accomplish. There is nothing that you cannot create. There is nothing that you cannot heal. You effect and affect everything. Everything in your world hears you. Livingness hears your thoughts, your angers, and your sadness'. It hears your in-completion.

You are beings that have forgotten their vastness. If you are to save this world as you have so incarnated to do, you must begin with yourself. You are not a victim to anything or anyone unless you decree it is so. You have forgotten the totality of your being.

Getting to Know Your Higher Self

You may ask how one goes about getting to know their higher self. It is like anything else - by setting the intention do so, then bringing your attention and focus to it. If you were completing a course of study as a teacher, your final curriculum would be to observe an experienced teacher. In much the same way, you can choose to spend an entire day with the singular focus of harmonizing with your higher self. You would then go through that day responding to every person and situation you encounter as your higher self.

Actors preparing for a part will often "get into character" by spending weeks and in some cases, months, experiencing life through the perspective of their character. In this way, they intuitively know how their character will respond to many different situations. You can also undertake this course of study, directly experiencing your life from the perspective of your higher self.

At the beginning of the day, ask your guides and higher self to assist you in this effort. As soon as you awaken, enter a meditative state and merge your consciousness with your higher self. Immerse your self in this high-vibrational viewpoint. It may seem challenging at first, but as you practice aligning with your higher self, you will become adept at stepping into this aspect of your self.

Initially, choose a day when you will be able to remain in a calm, meditative state through much of the day. It is good if you have some "low stress" activities planned to take you out into the world. As you become more attuned to your higher self, you can choose to continue your course of study on a busier, faster-paced day. Practice aligning with your higher self in a number of different situations and atmospheres. It is relatively easy to connect with your higher self while sitting in your meditation room at home, but more challenging when you are dealing with high-pressure situations and difficult people.

Thing bigger think better just THINK :)

Think Bigger, Better, More . . .

There are no limits. All of our limits are self-imposed even though it may often appear otherwise. What we overlook is that it is we who make the final decision about whether we buy into a limiting belief or not. Others may try to suggest or persuade us that it is in our best interests to harbor a particular belief, but most often it's only in the best interests of the person who is doing the persuading. They'd feel a lot better if we would do things the way everybody else is doing them.

"Perhaps, at this point, it would be a good idea to take a closer look at our collective reality and see how it got to be the way it is. When we were young children, we looked to those who were bigger than us to instruct us in the ways of life, and, because we were innocent, we trusted them to start us off on the right foot. In most cases they taught us as best they could, but only in rare instances did they teach us anything that was outside the standard, agreed-upon, status quo reality. In accordance with human nature, we merged our beliefs with theirs and began to go along with the crowd.

"As the years went by and we matured, we found that it was easiest for us to stay with the set of ideas we originally learned because these ideas were supported by almost everyone else around us. It seldom occurred to us to deviate from the mainstream, and yet, for a few people, a subtle voice inside whispered that they need not be supported by others in their thinking processes. These insightful people realized that they were free to believe as they chose, even if others didn't approve."

From The Code: The Reunion - A Parable for Peace

So, how about breaking out of the pack? We don't need the approval of others to think - and create - what we like. We can think "Bigger" and enhance our opportunities immensely; we can think "Better" and improve the quality of our lives beyond measure; we can think "More" and increase the flow of all good things coming to us. And we can start right now by taking a closer look at all of our limiting ideas and tossing them in the garbage with all the other things that we don't need anymore.

My Intention for today is:

I Intend that I am thinking Bigger, Better, More . . .

Funny this in many ways because I never did believe that my elders were necessarily by betters, hence being deemed a demon child LOL - my criteria has always been with the folks who tried to mold me or tell me what they thought was best was whether or not if they walked their talk, most I discerned did not, they were telling me the rules for life and were by and large bloody miserable, so seemed crazy to my way of thinking to follow their way/advice or opinion and now I am one of the elders BUT I am very happy, didn't happen overnight and there have a fair few long dark nights, but I stuck to my guns and done many a u-turn - I know that sounds contradictory - gotta keep an open mind - gotta keep a reflective/meditative {both passive and active}/creative mind. Yes I am very happy I love where I live, I love the people I am surrounded by, I love the whole vibe of the place and of course goes with out saying that I love my man, family, close friends and furry fourlegged companions with a ferocity that sometimes hurts. No I didn't get chocolates, flowers or are we going out for a meal - and it matters not a jot - I count my blessings, I know folks who insist on all the trappings of Valentine's day and then a year down the line it is all over............Oh yes when D n I were first together well the 1st 2 years we happened to be in the US and we would do something completely different and maybe for a another couple of years we still acknowledged, but as time passes and we become more content with each other and the friendship grows along with a changing kinda love, a more stable, less emotional love, we subtly agree with one another that we have no need to follow this ritual, hopefully we do/say/give something kind/uplifting/loving/thoughtful each and every day for one another, it's habit it's a way of life.
OK a couple of pics of the birthday, sadly I haven't got any of Sammy, Gregor, Craig, Laura and barely a glimpse of Lorien Sarah Leigh Keef Jo Dave, so who's keeping them then????? Click on a photo to take you to see the rest

Transformative Energy is coming and going now, with very noticeable

force and regularity. It is pounding the shores of our consciousness

like tides of some internal sea. Those who don't feel it FIRST PERSON

will experience the effects SECOND PERSON or even THIRD. It all

depends on your chosen itinerary while living in the World of Form.

Contrary to the opinions of some, these vibratory fluxes we feel are

not "caused" by astrological patterns or numerical arrangements.

That would make things separate, and life is NOT separate. WE are

our own cause, and WE are our own effect. And this same principle

holds, no matter what "position" we occupy on the Game Board of Life

in 3D.

Astrology REFLECTS reality, it doesn't cause it. The same is true of

double digits, omens, signs, symbols, and a host of other "mirrors" of

the Self. They DO "mean" something.......but their meanings vary,

depending on the eye of the beholder. {cause and effect}

"Everything is dependent on everything else, everything is connected,

nothing is separate. Therefore everything is going in the only way it

can go. If we were different everything would be different. We are

what we are, so everything is as it is."

G.I. Gurdjieff

I love it when I find an answer to someone else's questions just hits the spot for me

We also see that there is an aspect of this habit that you speak of that is linked with insecurity. Through the insecurity it is linked to---well, we are trying to think of a word that is not so dramatic, but perhaps we need to just say it. A denial of self love is how we'll say this. (Chuckles) You know what we mean from that. So, what we truly think you need to do in order to continue what you started to night and to move forward in this is to truly learn to love yourself and to accept yourself. You have been hard and somewhat judgmental due to some of the choices you have made in this life. Every choice that you have made has been a part of your journey. It's been whatever needed to be done at that point in your life. Some of this harshness and difficult time you have given yourself; it's time to let go. It worked for you at the time because it brought you into a space you needed to be. That is over and done with; it's time to release it and truly allow yourself to manifest your divinity. You have so much of that golden light within you, it just shimmers from you. It's there when you are at your natural place when you are not thinking about who you are or what's going on. It's only when you move into that space of judgment that you dim down and the other energies come up within you. You are healed. You are whole. You can release this. The more you quit trying to do so and allow yourself to be your divinity the easier you will find that to happen. Does that make sense to you?{cellular transformation...}

Oh there are so many good things I want to share but it is time to be away from the computer for a while

Eli thank you for the sends sadly I can't watch the pps file as I don't have the programe any more :(

New moons eclipses and new years........

And with all this newness comes many ideas and thoughts to ponder upon.

You personally have the opportunity to start fresh and these eclipses will bring a higher percentage of creativity, more communication on the psychic planes of consciousness and in general, a lot of movement. There will be a lot of moving and changing and rearranging; energy becoming more fluid. So take some time to dream. As you are going off to sleep, get in the cleansing light, or any time during the day as well, allow it to flow up through the body consciously feeling it releasing other points of tension. Breathe it upward freely and then dream your future. We are going to begin with a beautiful cleansing light, coming up from the earth, flowing through the body very, very strongly. And it just rushes up like vibrant air, rushing up from the earth, flowing through the body and you might notice as well any tension in the body, maybe a sore muscle, too much thinking, whatever it is, too much tension in the body, also releasing upward as this energy rushes through the body. And if you want to you can sort of breathe, and bring the energy up from the earth, with your hands, cup into the earth and accelerate it, coming up through the body and then [EXHALE] out the top, continuing up like a big spotlight. And you just bathe yourself in this Cleansing Light. [DK]

Looking thru La Chispa a beautiful glossy *new age* magazine that comes out bi-mnthly - in English and Spanish, it is freely distributed throughout the region and hs some interesting reading and resources; BUT as always everyone offering their type of teaching and healing [not that I believe another can heal someone only help the process] is only for the wealthy - also putting a price on one's head puts a limit on the universe's part in all of this, all teaching's state that what we put out we will get back, good n bad LOL, self responsibility is one of the key notes of this new emerging collective awareness/consciousness, so again those that are seeking healing or teachings should be able to decide how much it is worth to them - and "gift" according to pocket and conscience, it was the way I dealt with giving out Essiac back in Scotland and it is a joy to experience the ebb n flow of energy......so where is all this going........and friends please add your tuppence worth....all opinions are valid and gratefully received........OK Del suddenly asked me why didn't *put myself out there* as a "life counsellor" ........ a pair of listening ears to those in need of some kind of guidance, no I don't have any bits of paper, just life experience and like most others full of ups n downs, now I feel as if I have enough experience and confidence to help others navigate some of the more hurtful downs that occur in our lives. Be it a terminal diagnosis [11years of success this March woo hoo], parental problems [mine ditched me in my early 30s saying I was no daughter of hers, very painful at the time], raised a couple of beauties LOL, OK so I am biased,, but they are both self sufficient, working and caring people, several dodgy relationships and a couple of marriages, all pretty average really.............

I INTEND THAT ALL MY INTENTIONS SERVE THE HIGHEST GOOD OF THE UNIVERSE MYSELF AND EVERYONE EVERY WHERE.[http://www.intenders.org]

This would be an opportune time to heal an old wound, to analyse a problem and come up with a solution or to put the past to bed. This will become even more relevant when the new moon joins this Mercury-Chiron connection. Think about what you want to change; what will lead you towards a brighter future? Is there anything you need to mend or heal before you can achieve that? It could be a situation that needs to be finally resolved, or it could be a mental attitude that has been blocking you. Sometimes we sabotage ourselves because we don't really feel deserving of the success or happiness that is on offer. Make sure this isn't you by analysing your patterns and motivations with ruthless honesty. If necessary, ask a close friend for an honest opinion since we rarely see our own shortcomings.[Overview for February 2008 - A Month of Surging Optimism ]

Natural selection's explanatory power is not just about life on this planet: it is the only theory so far suggested that could, even in principle, explain life on any planet. If life exists elsewhere in the universe - and my tentative bet is that it does - some version of evolution by natural selection will almost certainly turn out to underlie its existence. Darwin's theory works equally well no matter how strange and alien and weird that extraterrestrial life may be - and my tentative bet is that it will be weird beyond imagining. [Why Darwin Matters]

Wine versus Water

A little lacking in energy since yesterday afternoon for some reason - but meditated with some good music {little wink at Eli xxx} and then felt inspired to play on psp, something I haven't done in months but as my header is all out of sync, I thought I'd try and put something together, I'll try it out when finished with the post.
Energy is returning
Finally got hold of Jason this morning and he will make it up Friday afternoon as he is working Friday night and Saturday, he will also see what John n Jeff are up to, apparently John has said nothing bout his bday, so hope he isn't a bit down, fingers crossed they will make it up
another bolt outa the blue was a friend request at facebook, couldn't think who it was although it dawned on me that I did know the guy and when I mentioned it to Jules she said it was young Sam that used to live in the village, she knew the surname which clinched it, so I am looking forward to hearing all about his adventures in the UK, which is where he moved to abut 3 years ago or is it 4 {spanish shrug}

Jessie forwarded this - think it is quite funny {although in Casarabonela the water comes straight out of the mountain, so it hasn't been through the "system" for a few thousand years, maybe millions}

Wine vs. water

To my friends who enjoy a glass of wine... and those who don't.

As Ben Franklin said:

"In wine there is wisdom,

in beer there is freedom,

in water there is bacteria."

In a number of carefully controlled trials,

scientists have demonstrated that if we drink 1 liter of water each day,

at the end of the year we would have absorbed more than

1 kilo of Escherichia coli, (E. coli) - bacteria found in feces.

In other words, we are consuming 1 kilo of poop.

However, we do NOT run that risk when drinking wine & beer

(or tequila, rum, whiskey or other liquor) because alcohol has to

go through a purification process of boiling,

filtering and/or fermenting.

Remember:

Water = Poop,

Wine = Health.

Therefore,

it's better to drink wine and talk stupid,

than to drink water and be full of shit.

There is no need to thank me for this valuable information:

Read this and thought of you Val :)

I heard the medium, in his most eloquent fashion, suggest that a leaf is a sculpture of the Creator. Every leaf in its divine form knows only one fabric of light - that it's a leaf. That is its truth. It doesn't try to be the tree. It doesn't try to get something better than the leaf on the branch next to it. It knows that it is the beauty of its own benevolent energy, that the gift of its leaf-ness, if you will, is that it experiences everything by its Creator's Force. It knows only truth and to know truth, my friends, is to fall in love again. To know truth is the ability to focus on the very existence of your fabric, your vibrance. In the journey of understanding truth, you come to this: There is only truth. {*10 principles of conscius creation*}

.....we are creators of our reality. When we do not know this we live in a world of illusion and feel that we are victims of situations and things are being done to us.

It is time to take control and know and understand deep within that we manifest our reality. We came to this planet to live a wonderful life, and this wonderment and joy is within us. It can never come from the outside. Things on the outside cannot bring us joy, we are joy and we were created in joy {*practicing the art of manifesting miracles*}

The Bridge ~ Step 48 ~ Meditation

You are your attention

The greatest battles being fought are not upon the deserts, forests and fields of Earth but within the human mind. You see, our minds are fair game for anyone who is unscrupulous or unconscious enough to want to take our attention away from us. We are our attention and to the extent that another can get us to put our attention on whatever he or she chooses, we give away a part of ourselves - the most vital part, in fact.

It's interesting that taking someone else's attention away from them has become a widely accepted occurrence in our world today. Most people don't mind at all; they accept that others can interrupt them, regardless of the motivation. Indeed, many people's lives are filled to the brim by constant distraction, and sadly, they never get control over their own attention. That's where meditation comes in. Meditation is the tool we use to regain control over our own mind.

Just before he took his leave, Lee Ching said that a second way to support life is to spend some quiet time alone everyday. This idea sounded a little odd to me at first, but the more I thought about it, the more I realized that those who meditate daily are much less likely to become involved in conflicts. They're calmer, less excitable, and, even more important, they're more apt to see things from a higher perspective. Later on, he told me that this is why those who seek to manipulate us don't want us to meditate because it makes us more difficult to control. Meditators aren't as reliant upon others to tell them what to do because they're cultivating their own inner independence. Compared to most people, they're a lot freer.

From The Code: Intentions in Action

My Intention for today is:

I Intend that I am spending some quiet time by myself everyday.

I know this to be so true from experience when I lapse in my meditative time every day then I can feel my self tightening up and "worry" trying to get in LOL

More rain

The land is feeding :) The oranges will be juicy.......

FECUNDITY - {no I am not swearing} Celebrate the richness of your imagination, hold this vision and then plan tomorrow's activities. Keep this plan alive all day

This is not a time to reach outside for answers, but to go deep within. As we go in, we notice.

Notice your home. What patterns are outmoded? Where are the obstacles to your realization of self? Look at piles of what is not being used. Is there a tool, a skill you have, clothing, computers, cameras that you no longer use? Are they outmoded? Will you use their gifts? If not they need to move along, so give those possessions away. If you are not willing to pass them along, then use them.

Make small movements. Allow yourself quiet time. Listen. Clear, clean, restage resting and work places of your life. And bring sustainable light into the time of dark.

In the new year, as you sit cozy in your home, remember there are always those who are cold and hungry or in the dark. Can you pass along something you no longer need to someone who may need it more? Not just people, the animals need your help now too. Can you find a way to share your wisdom and prosperity with those who have no voice? The ancient Chinese masters said: "Feed the Earth, feed the fish and the birds and your world will be abundant."
{GreenLiving}

Part of the gift of being on earth at this time is that you have more choices than you ever did before. There's an even greater potential for you to be able to understand who you are, to expand further, to move in whatever direction you may seek to move. You also have the choice to slow down. You have the choice to say, "I'm going to back off." You have the choice to say, "I choose ascension and expansion but without the trauma and the extreme shifts."

So, therefore, one might say, this expansion, this movement into the fourth dimension, or this new age, or this new space is allowing you way more potentials than you've ever had. So choose what's right for you.

This time of the year is when I oftentimes enjoy looking back to see what the past year has brought for you. Consider your life. Take this opportunity to be able to consider this past year with all the amplitude, with all the facets, with all the assistance that you have with this deep connection.

You may, as you look at your life, see a pattern. It may be a pattern of disappointment; a pattern of seeking to manifest what doesn't happen. Consciously choose to shift that pattern right now at this moment. Consciously choose to be wherever you want to be, to have whatever you seek to have.

Looking forward to the upcoming year put forth what you seek to manifest. From within, look around. Ask yourself, "Is there anything you need to know? Is there anything you need to do in order to manifest what you are creating in this moment?"

Each of you as a single individual may be thinking, "Oh, but I'm just one human." You are not just one human. You are part of a group of hundreds of thousands, who are conscious. You are part of a group of millions who are semi-conscious, aware that something's happening; we don't know what. And you are part of a group that is with these, who are in the non-physical form.

Many of you walk hand in hand with everyone who is here. You chose this life upon the earth at this time. You know from being within your own divinity that you have the knowledge; you have the experience. And you made the choices. Thank you for that. Thank you for choosing love. Thank you for choosing peace. Thank you for choosing to believe in yourself, even if there are times in which you don't feel you are one hundred percent there. It's okay. Having the intention is the first step.

So believe in yourself. Trust yourself. Live your life with your heart filled to overflowing with love, with awareness, with the knowledge that you are divine; All of these have been within that diamond of your soul. All of these have been experiences that you have had at one point or another. Let yourself believe. Let yourself open up. When you do, you are without struggle. When you believe in yourself everything else falls into alignment. When you love yourself miracles occur.

If there are times you don't feel you can fully love yourself, then feel compassion. Allow the love to come in through compassion.{GoddessLight}

Good Choices: Discernment Leads To Integrity

Copyright Mellissa Laurie Seaman 2003 All Rights Reserved

We make judgments about people all the time, and they are usually not helpful. “That jerk just cut me off on the freeway!” “That girl is rude.” “That guy is an ignorant fool.” We make our judgments based on rudimentary perceptions and limited experience.

Life experience has taught many of us to be careful about making judgments. We have learned, usually the hard way, that making judgments and having expectations usually leads to disappointment at best. Our judgments close our hearts, and our expectations put limitations on an otherwise limitless future.

But sometimes you Know that something, or someone, is not good for you. Your gut tells you. Your instincts tell you. Your angels whisper in your ear. You can feel it in your heart that this thing, this situation, this relationship – is not right for you. Should you toss away this feeling, this Knowing, because it is a “judgment?” Should you feel guilt for having such seemingly judgmental feelings? No. To do so would be to ignore your powers of Discernment, and to make meaningless the Gift of Free Choice.

Discernment is a skill of Wisdom. To discern the Truth from the Lie, the Right from the Wrong, the Good from the Bad – this, if it is not done from a place of fear, is discernment. Fear is the underpinning of Judgment, as it is the underpinning of all Separation. Discernment is a gift that goes along with the Free Choice we all have. We get to decide what is right for us.

Discernment is how we shape our adult values. As children, we are fed whatever values our parents held. As grown-ups, we discern what is Truth for us, and we create our own values. I make my decisions based on my values. I value health, joy, free creativity, faith and love. So I make decisions based on this. And when I encounter people who choose illness, complaining, victimhood, pessimism and fear, I stay away from them. Does this make me judgmental? No. I’m using my discernment to see what is Right for me. Does that mean I hate this person? No. In fact, if I’m in touch with my True Self, I love this person. I just don’t want to be involved in their drama. I wish only for them what is in their Highest Good – whatever that may be. And I accept that it may be in that person’s Highest Good to stay in pain for a while to learn some lesson. I think the AA term for it is that they are “doing their research.” But that doesn’t need to include me. I am detached, although I am never completely separated, as we all share the same web

Having read the Shadow side of being Indigo - link on the right in my starred items - it obviously st5ayed within my consciousness through the night and I awoke realising just how much it explained about my childhood, the suicide attempts because I couldn't handle this world finding it cruel, hypocritical and so very untruthful, my mother always told me I had to learn everything the hard way, in other words I didn't believe anything until I had the experience - I found most of the so called civillised societies norms very much at odds with myself and yet I blocked it all for many years and tried to conform and especially66 try to please my mother, which always went wrong and seemed to be misinterpreted and I realise now that I only really truly began to walk m path and listen to myself when I finally broke away from my mother and her set of "ideals", as painful as it was, and there still is a sadness in regard to my Mum, somewhere deep inside there is this sense that we should be more connected, but again I think that is more of a societal thoughtform , and I see many striving toward the perfect family, this glowing technicoloured advert image which we are bombarded with on a daily basis, our "duty/loyalty" should be to the collective rather than the personal......
For the first time since we moved here the Rondales {fire festival} night stayed dry and bright, so we went out and watched the procession and saw a few friends, being very aware that it was a portal time :) therefore we were more the observers than the participants observing the revelry of our compatriots......
well better go and see Barbara as she had to return home due to Jo n Dave's new dog being a bitch and won't allow Barbara in the house, apparent;y they are OK outside, well they have room, but once inside for the night new bitch just kept cornering poor Barbs, who is a complete softie.......then off to gym, market and vets Squidge needs to get her stitches out
Did anyone see the meteors, they were supposed to be visible about dawn yesterday and today, was cloudy here :(

The Bridge ~ Step 10 ~ Gratitude

Go forth with Gratitude and all is added unto you

Gratitude is what makes the Intention Process work. It's the acknowledgment that the intentions we've made in the past have come true. When we express our gratitude, we're saying thank you to the Universe for bringing us the things that we've asked for. Were saying that we recognize that a connection exists between ourselves and the Universe, that we appreciate this connection, and know that we can call on it at any time.

There is always a lot of gratitude expressed in our Intenders Circles. In fact, that's what our Intenders Circles are for - to make our intentions and to express our gratitude for their manifestation. When an Intender speaks of gratitude, it shows everyone in the circle that the laws of manifestation work. It gives those who still carry doubts and skepticism a newfound confidence. It heightens their level of trust when they see their fellow Intenders "winning."

And that's how it all starts. We make an intention, and soon, when it has manifested, we feel like we've gotten a win - and we say so by stating our gratitude. The Intention Process has come full circle. It started out with an intention and it ended with a statement of gratitude.

Once we've seen ourselves and our friends get a win or two, it gets much easier for all of us. We put even more trust in the Intention Process and then we get more and more wins. Pretty soon, we're winning all of the time! Eventually, we'll look around us and see that the world we're living in is the one we've intended for ourselves. We will have created everything in our world consciously. When enough of us have done this, others will learn from our example, and we will all begin to walk this Earth free and full of gratitude.

Last Spring, during the potluck at an Intenders meeting, a very successful woman was telling us about how she manifests things. She was using money as an example. She said that she was grateful for it, both before and after it arrives. That got me started thinking. Up until then, money was always a challenge for me. Every time a bill would come in the mail, I would get upset. Right away, I would start to complain and I'd walk around muttering and wondering how I was ever going to pay it. But since that meeting, I've started doing something different. Now, I thank the Universe when I get a bill in the mail. I think of all the wonderful things that the bills are providing for me and I'm really grateful for them.

Needless to say, everything is much better financially for me now. Since I've started being grateful, I've received more money than I ever had before. It just keeps flowing in, like water from the kitchen faucet. Sometimes I'm even pleasantly surprised by where it comes from!

I intend that I am living in grace and gratitude.

New Moon New Week

A quiet weekend, energies a little low physically, which is cool coz then I spend more time in {conscious}thought; said tata to Leigh Keith and Marta yesterday as they flew out today and are back xmas eve.......Jules and Pete came round Sunday and and we ate drank{but not too much}and laughed together :)
I have finished the Alchemist by Paulo Coelho, as it says it all about omens/coincidences, these are the signals to follow in life and I realise that after years of calling myself a cosmic alchemist I am that ...."That's what alchemists do. They show that when we strive to become better than we are are, everything around us becomes better too". Now I want to read all of his books looks like a trip to Amazon :) also due to a comment left on my blog - thank you aart hilal - I have found and bookmarked the blog of Paulo.......

I was invited to group called how to stay positive in a negative world.......mmmmmmmmmm........answer stop seeing the world as negative LOL , OK maybe some of the people are a bit dour, but ahhhh this beautiful planet it could never be described as negative, it is the beauty of this planet/universe and it's inhabitants that will bring smiles to our faces and peace to our hearts......

The Bridge ~ Step 8 ~ Staying Uplifted

Oftentimes things may be happening all around you that seem to be discordant, and you cannot imagine what is going on. But you must remain focused and steadfast and be able to see through and not get caught up in the mundane dramas that are constantly being perpetuated on this planet.

I have good friends who live way out in the desert in order to get away from everything. Like a lot of people nowadays, the husband is obsessed with disasters and potential catastrophes. In fact, he even has a cave on his land stocked with enough survival goodies to feed and water a small town. I lived with my friends for a few months the winter before last, and everyday, as we worked together, the husband would talk about last night's Art Bell radio show, and he even taped the most frightening shows so that I could listen to them later in the day.

Now . . . I was having some health challenges when I arrived at their place, and over a period of the next couple of months I felt my energy level going down and down. My physical discomfort was getting worse by the day.

Finally, one morning I asked my inner guidance what was going on, and the answer I receive was very helpful. I was told that the next time the husband approached me with the latest disaster rumors to tell him, "My friend, I know that you mean well for me, but I have to ask you to hold off on these scary stories of yours. You see, it's my job to stay uplifted, no matter what. Your stories are enticing, however they tend to bring my energy level down. I need to stay up if I'm going to do the work that I came here to do." To make a long story short, he began to honor my request right away, and in a very short time my health and energy level shot back up to normal.

And that's the message for all of us who truly care about the well-being of humanity. It's like a resume for us, so that when anyone asks us what our job is we can say "It's my job to stay uplifted, regardless of all the crazy things that are going on around me. In fact, I've come to understand that if everyone buys into the disaster mindset and nobody guards their energy level, then we will all be down wallowing in the swamplands. Some of us have to stay uplifted, and that's what I'm here to do!"

My Intention for today is:
I intend that I am staying uplifted and doing what I came here to do.

Purple Carrot - needs help!!!!!

What a shame, they're in danger of extinction. That was the thought that crossed the minds of most of the 2,ooo visitors who went to the IIIFiesta de la Zanahoria Morá in Cuevas Bajas last weekend. The star of the show, the purple carrot, is rich in vitamins A,B,B3 and E, potassium, magnesium, iodine, phosphoros and calcium, it has more flavour than the traditional carrot and, what's more, it improves your sex life , according to Greek and Roman legend. The problem is that this vegetable that was brought to the area by the Moors, can now only be found in the Cuevas Baja area.
Proof of it's scarcity is that of the 14 stands at the fair only 3 were catual;ly selling the famous purple carrots. "We only know of them being grown here and in Cuevas de San Marcos. That's why we want to find a niche for them in the organic market in order to make the area's market gardens more proifitable", explained the local Mayor Manual Jesus Ginés.
Both the growers and their customers were full of praise for the vegetable, being more flavoursome and eaten raw........
I took this from the Sur this week {written by Antonio Fuentes} and keep my fingers crossed that someone out there will pick up on it and revive the Purple Carrot.............

Life is not about finding yourself
Life is about creating yourself :)

The Alchemist -Paulo Coelho
The closer one gets to realising their destiny, the more that the destiny becomes his true reason for being, thought the boy.......
...the boy was beginning to understand that intuition is really a suden immersion of the soul into the universal current of life...........

The Bridge ~ Step 5 ~ Doubts

How much greater we are than we think we are

There are three main things that can interfere with the manifestation of our intentions. The first is the "yet" factor, which calls on us to remember that just because something hasn't manifested yet doesn't mean that it's not going to manifest. The second is the Highest Good factor which asks us to understand that the Universe knows better for us than we know for ourselves. Sometimes it's just not in our Highest Good - or the Highest Good of others involved - for our intention to manifest. And the third thing that can sabotage us is doubt.

There is a old story about the Knower and the Novice that best explains how to deal with our doubts. When the Novice makes an intention and then, soon after, is faced with doubt or resistance, he tends to buy into the doubts. These doubts can be thoughts coming from inside him that tell him that he can't have, or doesn't deserve, or can't afford whatever it is that he's intended to manifest. Similarly, these doubts can also come from his outside environment in the form of well meaning friends or business advisors who say that he couldn't possibly manifest his desires. As the Novice buys into the doubts, regardless of their source, he sabotages his experience, loses trust in the Laws of Manifestation, and stops his forward movement.

The Knower is a different story. When the Knower is confronted with doubts or resistances, instead of believing in them, he ignores them and continues moving forward. He understands that the Intention Process always works - that we are all grand Creators, capable of great things - and all we have to do is trust that when we hold onto a thought that it will manifest for us. We may not know when or where. We just know that it will.

My Intention for today is:
I intend that I am ignoring any doubts and that I am continuing to move forward toward the manifestation of my intentions.

Intentions

Gotta laugh at my first Intenders Bridge mailing as it tells a story I am familiar with having practiced this several times - well maybe practice is the wrong word, just been aware that I would have the right driving conditions and easy parking - sgreat LOL
We knew that the key to our greatest happiness, as well as our gliding as gracefully as possible through these times of great change, lies in our thinking processes. Once we fully understood that our thoughts are the building blocks of our future, we realized that the solutions to any challenges we were faced with are not going to come through political or worldly means, but through our becoming more vigilant of our thoughts. We simply needed to learn to hold our attention on the thoughts that serve us and discard the ones that don't.

You see, from the time we were small children we were taught what to think, but, in all our years of schooling, we were never taught how to think. That's why we created the Intention Process. And that's what we're going talk about as we cross The Bridge together - how to think - because another thing we've begun to notice recently is that the time between the time we make an intention and its manifestation is getting shorter and shorter. Therefore, it behooves us to keep a much closer eye on what were thinking (and what were saying) than ever before.

I recall an occasion last year when a friend of mine and I were pulling into a large parking lot early one Saturday evening to rent a video. Every space, for as far as we could see, was filled. Normally, we would have made an intention on the way to the video store by saying something like, "I intend we have a great place to park when we get there." Then, we'd invoke the Highest Good, and say "So be it and so it is."

But we forgot to do that, and as we looked around and I almost started to voice a complaint, she suddenly remembered, then quickly stated an intention, said "So be it" - and just as she did, a brown conversion van backed out of the space directly in front of the main door to the store. I got so excited that I yelled out, "And there it is!"

She pulled into the spot and both of us sat there laughing. Our "So be it and so it is" had turned into "So be it and there it is." We'd had a conscious instantaneous manifestation, and it was as if we'd received a confirmation that we were evolving to our next step. I can't tell you how good it felt.

My Intention for today is:

I intend that I remember that what I am thinking and talking about all day long is what I am manifesting for myself.

New Energy Alert

he deep digging bulldozer is still working its way forward, as we excavate more and more of the parts of ourselves that need tweaking, releasing, and examining.

Through all of this deep movement, there is a theme present, and a sure and certain purpose.

We are being prepared for community living. And we are purging and releasing arrogance.

So even though these times may be stressful, challenging, and stretch us to the maximum, they would not be occurring if community living was not on the very near horizon, and if we were not, as always, aligning more fully with Source.

In order to live successfully in community, we must fit. The energies and vibrations of each and every one of us must be able to exist in harmony with a community lifestyle. We are being groomed and prepared for community living because so much of the old world and old systems will be falling away and will end in the very near future. In this way, we can now know that all is always in divine and perfect order, as we are always and most certainly being protected and guided through this amazing ascension process.

Symptoms and manifestations?

The squeezing is still present, as much that is not in harmony or a vibrational match for a higher way of living and being is being squeezed out and removed. In this way, we are being strongly encouraged to drop behavior patterns, tone down others, and adopt new ones. Community living means being able to exist in a group setting. So, much of anything that does not vibrate within this theme needs to go or be revised.

For example, are you one who cares so much and is so responsible that you do most of everything…for yourself and everyone else? If this is the case, you will be asked to do less, to relax and enjoy yourself more, and to let others step up to the plate. Are you one who sits back and relaxes already? If this is so, you will be asked to contribute more and to let others relax more, and you are one who can show them how to do it!

As mentioned in the last energy alert of November 28, we will encounter situations and people in our lives who will illuminate strongly and beautifully where we need to tweak our own individual energies. These encounters will make us so miserable, that we will not be able to ignore them for long! They have wonderful messages for us, if we choose to examine them and to embrace the changes that we need to make within us.

The areas where we are miserable are there to show us that a change needs to be made. We can ask ourselves, “What would feel really good for me right now?” “What am I craving?” And then give up, surrender, and allow it to come into our lives. More about this later on.

If the “squeezing,” pressure, and feelings of overwhelm become too much to bear, here are some temporary remedies: When energy moves through us very strongly and intensely, it can greatly help to relax. This allows the energy a more easy flow. So then, we can do whatever works for us in regard to relaxing and letting go. We can sing, walk in nature, watch a good movie, hug a tree, take a few days off and get pampered, remove ourselves from the mainstream, get a massage, or simply do some yoga. We are all different with different solutions for relaxing, so just go with your favorite or ask for a new one.

In addition, this squeezing is creating a natural detoxification within us as well. Body and muscle aches, headaches and sinus pressure, extreme fatigue and exhaustion.........{click title above to read on}
