I had an appointment today to meet a new client for lunch. I looked forward to it because she seemed so pleasant and fun on the phone. On the way I stopped in at Walmart’s Customer Service Dept and where a very impatient couple was complaining about everything. I played on Facebook while I stood in line and ignored them. I left right after they did. I walked up as they were pulling their car out. The woman’s driving and she’s not looking so as I get near her, I motion for her to stop because she’s getting ready to hit something. She gives me a dirty look and tells me to mind my own business. I figured, “That’s cool, they’re not having a good day but I am” and I go on my merry way. I walked into Carrabba’s carrying a Horizons Magazine since my client didn’t know what I looked like. Guess who my client was. She looked kind of stunned, doe in the headlights, so I put two fingers to my forehead, closed my eyes and said, “my spidey sense tells me you’re having a bad day.” We laughed. She apologized. She’s been having a bad year, I don’t need to add to it by being grumpy back <3

Don’t be that girl.
That’s not who you want to be

Two friends are having a disagreement. One of them is fibbing, I don’t know which. I understand not liking someone but if you are going to purposely be mean to someone to keep an old grudge active, ask yourself why you feel the need to do that. Seriously.  Ask yourself deep in your soul, why you feel compelled to do that. You may not know it impacts other areas of your life and is holding you back but I guarantee you it is. Really. Just let it go once and for all. When you see that person next time, just remember that you’re not a mean girl, you don’t want to be the one who keeps this going. Quietly bless her and go on your way.

“There is a powerful exercise, quite simple , which I began to use many, many years ago. Who would I have met on the way, be it a person or an insect, the first thought that I assume with respect to this point: “I wish you happiness!” But most importantly, that this idea was indeed the very first, “I wish you happiness.” It completely changes on what is going on between you and that person. I say this from personal experience. Sometimes it’s very difficult when you meet the enemy when you find yourself face to face with an unexpected tough situation. And at this point you get an opportunity to create more space around you. You see how it pops up this negative emotion, and before it will take “up” over you , you have time to convert it. You see everything as it is: that’s evident ignorance; anger – not that other, as ignorance from my side, from their side. Convert him, let go, turn into love. “I wish you happiness.” Try it and see how much everything will change in your life. ” ~ Richard Gere

Here are some of the dollars waiting for you to step up and take them this week. I’ve stepped it up by clearing some clutter that’s been blocking my way to the door. When I’m clutter-free, I can relax and it’s easier for me to envision more of what is possible for my life. Tackle that hall closet today, or under the sink. Clear just one space and see for yourself that more dollars will flow

There’s a new tortoise in the ‘hood!

On our way out for the day’s adventure as we pulled out of the driveway we see a new gopher tortoise. Neither of us have seen him in the neighborhood before. I took his photo and moved him across the road where he was headed. I posted his pic on Facebook and asked, “What do you think his name is?” Horizons Magazine Astrologer Barbara Lee suggested “Murphy.” I told her “It’s interesting you say Murphy because I just today discovered that both the man and I have a connection to property with the name Murphy in it.“ Murphy it is.     Continue reading →

Life is a boomerang, you get what you give. Clear up the past and start giving good stuff, and see what comes your way.

Prayers for Domino who left a troubled marriage and whose wife is catching up to him now, threatening divorce and jail.  He’s in the angry, blameful stage, however that will pass when he stops fueling it with his thoughts and words.  So why is she showing up now when everything is going so well?  Because the Universe knows his greater intention to live a happy life. It will present every opportunity for him to have closure, to make peace with his past, to stop creating new karma over old situations by being truthful.  Each time the opportunity is presented and ignored, it just goes back to the end of the line to come around again.  We get endless opportunities.  But he won’t admit his part in problems.  He doesn’t see that no matter what he does or where he goes, since he’s left behind him a wake of lies and broken promises, he’s going to keep attracting the same into his own life.  We are the only ones holding ourselves back. There is always a way to make a peaceful and fair parting.  If you did not attract an amicable conclusion out of a person or situation, whether a marriage or a job, that was just an indicator of your vibrational resonance at the time.  Now that you have new knowledge and grok that powerful lesson, you are vibrating in a new place.  From this new place of understanding, you will attract a different result.

Putting together the upcoming October 2015 Horizons Magazine really has the juice flowing. I typically have several years’ worth of articles waiting to go in, and I can pick and choose whatever I wish. Everything got changed at the last minute since Wayne Dyer passed, and the October issue is now becoming a memorial issue. In pulling pieces from here and there, I’m crash-course re-reading lots of his writing. He told such profound truths in the most simple language. I’m glad he wrote so many books. What a body of work. What a legacy

It’s all about perception. A friend asked me how I could have been a criminal defense paralegal for so many years and had to look at crime scene photos of violent crimes. It’s all in the perception. If it’s a job and I’m just organizing and categorizing, I’m looking at it with a different eye. I learned in my twenties that I could distance myself from the emotion of the situation if I had to to do my job. So I never thought of them as gross photos, they were simply evidence of an incident.

Attention everyone who acts shady or even commits outright crimes, it may be that you think you’re getting away with something but trust me when you start awakening and your conscience speaks, you will be horrified at what you’ve left in your wake. Start now to clean up your karma. Little by little every day just be a little less of a dick . Trust me, you’ll be glad you did.

If you’re good at a job but you’re not a nice person, I can’t refer business to you. Period. I’m always looking for accurate local psychics to refer callers to. The magazine pays for itself but psychic readings is my income the past 20+ years. I get calls for more sessions than I can handle, so I welcome referrals. And since everyone seems to have a different definition these days, I’m not talking about “spiritual counselors,” when I say “psychic.” I mean I’m looking for someone with the ability to intuit specific things that are happening in your life, and can make accurate predictions on a regular basis. I commented about Sylvia Browne yesterday.  The general public is drawn to theatrics and rhetoric, so there are many self proclaimed celebrity psychics who charge outrageous fees and keep their clientele because they are charismatic and know what to say.    Continue reading →
