Gandhi said “If you don’t find God in the next person you meet, it is a waste of time looking for him further.” It’s not always easy, but that’s why they call it spiritual “practice.”

And this is why they pay me the big bucks
I did –> a reading <– for a friend 2 months ago, where she asked about moving into a particular gated community. She’d made an offer on the only available home and wanted to know if her loan would be approved. A perfect example of asking a short-sighted question. I told her while I saw her being turned down for this particular loan, there was another unit in the same community about to come on the market, and it was more suitable for her as well. That one would be approved. The question: “Will yesterday’s loan application be approved?” was shortsighted. The better question would have been “Will I live in this community? Will I buy my dream home in this community?” She texted me this week, after I asked for an update on the new home: “Like you had said… one was about to go on the market but had not been listed yet. When I called the realtor who had listed one of the rentals in the community, she offered to show it to me and I said I would buy it. It played out just like you had visioned. I am living here in a pre-occupancy agreement until I close in August.”
What it means when Mercury returns to 4 degrees Pisces on July 17
Only 10 more days until Mercury is back to the position it held before the retrograde began. Whatever got stalled for you before June 7 will reactivate on July 17 when Mercury returns to 4 degrees Pisces. When Mercury goes retrograde in Pisces, there can be mental and emotional confusions, and psychic experiences. Pisces’ challenge is sensitivity, being influenced by others, illusion and delusion. There could be a mix-up of ideas, opinions and passions. People tend to become fanatical or erratic in their behavior. There is a tendency for procrastination and laziness. Stress takes its toll. Stability and privacy are needed for a trouble-free environment. If you’ve got long ignored issues hanging over your head and hard decisions to come to, you’ll feel like you’re walking through quicksand with your mind in a pressure cooker. Look where you can lighten your load, since nothing relieves pressure like releasing past baggage. Whatever got stalled for you before June 7 will reactivate on July 17 when Mercury returns to 4 degrees Pisces. Only 10 more days! Hang in there, baby!

Prince Harming: Coming clean about past lies will set you free
I had a session with a friend who just learned everything her mate told had been fabricated. When she confronted him and asked why, she got more lies. Been there –> done that! It’s never too late to tell the truth. It takes courage, humility and connection to Source. Until you can own up to what you’ve done, you’re jeopardizing everything you have now. A conscious partner honors their mate by coming clean, no matter how icky and sticky the past was. I watched a few episodes of Catfish, where Nev Schulman and Max investigate when someone thinks they’re online with a romantic partner who may not be who they say they are. Occasionally, as with Kendra, the trickster agrees to meet and comes clean about why they did it. Continue reading
Empower friends by helping hold their vision
Anytime we hold a thought of helping a friend, of sending them some positive energy to help them accomplish what they want, just the knowing that someone else cares enough to do that for us can be outrageously empowering. Never deprive someone of hope, it may be all they have.
What if today turned out to be the best day ever??
What if today turned out to be the best day ever? What if all the best possible things happened to you today? What if you found lucky coincidences everywhere, what if you discovered you have more dollars than you thought you had, what if the kids and coworkers behaved all day, what if you got a raise, what if you found the love of your life, what if a stranger bought you a new car, what if all your aches and pains were healed, what if you found your niche in life and what if by the end of the day you realized everything had meaning and purpose and everything was going along fine, just as it is? What if you woke up today with only the things you were thankful for yesterday?

Why would Source allow you to be treated unfairly?
Just had a conversation with a friend over a misunderstanding. We have two different recollections and she’s concerned she was perceived unfairly. My experience was that I told her something in confidence and within minutes someone else was talking about it. She was the only one I told. She accused me of calling her a liar. I responded I was just telling her what I experienced. She got a little condescending “I thought you were psychic, you should know when someone is telling you the truth.” Anytime something triggers us, it shows where we have emotional work to do. If I had a thought like “why would Source allow me to be treated unfairly or seen as a liar when I’m not?” I’d ask to be shown what I need to know, what I need to do, what my part is in attracting it and how to move beyond it.
You feel negative emotion when you’re looking in the wrong place
“The money isn’t in the bank yet, and when I look at the money that isn’t in the bank yet – that I want and need – I feel negative emotion, and the negative emotion is because I’m looking in the wrong place. I’m looking in the bank, instead of into the vibrational reality.” If you’ll look in the vibrational reality where it is, now you’ll resonate with the Source within you. You’ll feel wonderful and, when you feel wonderful, that’s the condition that is necessary for the thoughts to turn to things. But if you are conditionally-based, running around sorting the things, acknowledging the things, measuring the things, comparing the things, noticing the things that you’ve got and the things that you don’t have, then you can’t move beyond the existing conditions. You can’t move beyond what-is, if what-is is all you got going on in your vibration. Continue reading
Relationship Saving Tip: Do not expect your partner to be everything
Just had an interesting reading on a universal topic. Your partner can love you even if they have stopped participating and responding as they used to. Do not expect them to be your best friend and your lover and your advisor and your cheerleader and your rescuer and your income and your entertainment. Do not think you have to text them with every move you make and every thought you have. Put that energy into cultivating your own interests. Rather than pouting that your partner doesn’t go to the gym, find a workout partner. If you’re the night owl and they go to bed at sunset, find someone to hoot and howl the night away. Let them love you in their own way. If you find that is not enough for you, there’s always time to make a new decision. Most importantly, don’t risk losing your best friend just because they’ve stopped being your lover.
