Working in the side yard, Fed Ex drops a box at my door. I know he doesn’t see me so I call out, “thank you!” I swore he called back “I love you!” We hear what we want to hear.

If you’re disappointed in how the election is going
To anyone who’s disappointed, stay hopeful. It’s still progress. It took more than one election cycle to put this system in place, it will take more than one to morph it. No matter who’s elected, no matter by what means, don’t take score too soon. It’s still progress. More people are more aware than at this time last year. Too little too late? Matters not. Rigged voting? Matters not. Give this stew time to brew. Change is in the air. We’re stronger than we think. It’s still progress. I’m hopeful.
THE WORM’S WAKING by Rumi.
This is how a human being can change: there’s a worm addicted to eating grape leaves. Suddenly he wakes up, call it grace, whatever, something wakes him, and he’s no longer a worm. He’s the entire vineyard,and the orchard too, the fruit, the trunks, a growing wisdom and joy that doesn’t need to devour.
Rainbow Nation, a good idea, not a Native prophecy
I agree with what Nicholas Wood of Sacred Hoop Magazine says below. A Rainbow Nation is a great idea, but it’s not a Native prophecy. This meme shows Fedora Poligus, a shaman from Siberia, not a Native American. The origin of the “prophecy” is a 1962 book titled Warriors of the Rainbow by William Willoya and Vinson Brown. The idea of the Rainbow Nation got picked up by early environmentalists and spread. It’s a compelling and inspirational idea but it’s not a Native prophecy. We can still make the earth green again. We can still call ourselves warriors of the rainbow. But this is NOT a Native american prophecy.
Nicholas Breeze Wood writes: “Trawling through my home page this morning, to see what my friends are doing, I came across this photo several times. I think it’s a loverly idea – the Rainbow Nation – but in the spirit of accuracy I really have to comment.” Continue reading
Drop the rock in your hand and God will fill it with diamonds
A friend just wrote that “evil beings have created the human experience and all his life he’s been doing his best to stop them”. What he doesn’t realize is that by continuing to talk about everything he sees that’s going wrong, every plot, every conspiracy, all he’s doing is perpetuating the misery and anxiety in his own life. He’s holding on literally to old stuff for fear of what will happen. He doesn’t realize that as soon as he lets go, his eyes will open to new opportunity. He doesn’t realize that when you drop the rock in your hand, God can fill it with diamonds.
Untrained psychics please hone your skills
Adam Bernstein had a channel offer him an unsolicited message. Adam wrote “Against better judgment I said “OK” so her “spirit” message was “there is a lady who you like but she’s going to break your heart”. There is so much wrong with that statement where do I begin?” (His entire post is below.) I agree with Adam. I’ve had that happen to me many times in my 30+ years as a psychic. If they insist on giving me a reading I did not ask for, I let them have their say and I say thank you. What the untrained and unexperienced do not realize is that if they ‘see’ a problem, they can also look past it and see what the remedy is. They have to ask to see past it. They can look at the disaster and look past it to see what good will come after. Continue reading
Not today Windows 10
My computer guru from the Lake Worth computer repair service just removed all the Windows10 stuff Microsoft kept loading into my system hoping I’d let them activate it. It was taking five seconds to move between screens and two minutes to restart.
I knew WIN10 was lurking in the background because when he removed it last time, it fixed my problem. If you’re getting notifications to upgrade, that means they’ve already installed the files in your system, it happens little by little with each update. If you click on “schedule to install” that just activates it. He unistalled it using the GWX control panel, see –>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5pcmDTDRGgA.
I also had him disable programs from loading at start up and uninstalled ones I don’t use. We opened all my programs at once and the only thing I noticed was different was a handful of nonstandard fonts were no longer available. I replaced them with available fonts, problem solved. The computer is once again fine and fast! Oh, WIn10 you may get me someday but not today. “I got troubles, Lord, but not today. They’re gonna wash away.

Sooner or later love is going to get you * Bernie has already made a difference
Sooner or later love is going to get you. This song keeps ringing in my head. It doesn’t matter if Bernie Sanders becomes president or not. He’s already been the Catalyst for an Awakening in Mass consciousness as to what the possibilities are for this nation. Seeds have been planted. More people than ever especially the youngbloods are recognizing the unity of all and have started on a path to realizing it for their children and grandchildren and perhaps even in our lifetime.

I cleared the front property
I woke up slowly this Sunday morning. I was going to sit on the driveway with a giant cup of hazelnut coffee with almond milk and watch my neighborhood wake up while I did. As an Aries times 5, it’s hard for me to simply sit rather than do, so I go outside prepared, just in case. Before I went out, I gathered anything I might need like my phone, Skin So Soft for the mosquitoes when the wind dies down, the mini tarp in case I want to sit because everything’s soaking wet from last night’s rain, hand pruners and gardening gloves. There are not too many places on my property that I can sit and not be looking at something that I’d like to prune, to water, or to transplant. Thirty minutes later I’d rooted a dozen more night-blooming Jasmine cuttings and found a tray of loquat seedlings. I decided to clear the front part of the east property, which had become a tangle of grapevine, fallen oak and pine branches atop old bamboo. There must have been some wind storm the last two days. Some of my giant plants are bent over 45 degrees and there is a ton of deadfall from the oaks and pines. An hour later I’d stacked the bamboo poles that have been laying on the ground for the last several years. The good, intact poles I set aside to use for a fence and the ones that had crumbled into mulch have now become mulch for the front berm, which is now 18 inches higher. All garden tools and supplies, all bricks and cinder blocks have been moved to one specific area. I now have officially zero areas of junk on my property and I have another nice clearing to sit with friends, private from the street.
How can I get to a place of peace when it’s so crazy around me?
“How can I get to a place of peace and calm when everything is so crazy around me?” It is a matter of focus. Right now when you focus on the crazy, you feel kind of crazy. What would you prefer to feel like? Peaceful? Calm? What things make you feel that way? For me I like looking at peaceful images especially nature scenery or paintings with colors that soothe. Your job is to discover what it is that makes YOU feel calm and then do more of that. If petting your cat or sitting at the beach looking at the ocean or sitting on your balcony looking at the sky makes you feel peaceful, ether do that or keep imagining yourself doing that. I would also ask the universe to send me fun ideas of calm and peaceful things I would like. I always ask even if I think it’s obvious what if I want.
