A friend asked what is the point of all of it? She has always been a seeker, reading everything metaphysical, going to conferences and seminars, attending discussion groups. I can only speak for myself. I think the point of all my metaphysical study throughout the decades and involvement with paranormal activity gave me a greater understanding of the world around me and the importance of things. It taught me how to be at peace with whatever was appearing before me. It taught me that I can direct where my life goes by my focused attention, and that includes dollars.

 It taught me that knowing the mechanics of how to do something is different than maintaining steady discipline to keep the machine in motion. It needs daily attention but not to the point of resistance and sometimes it’s just easier to let yourself be at the mercy of the people and circumstances around you and fall into their game, their movie.

 So what’s the endgame? For me it’s about understanding and peace of mind. Before enlightenment, you chop wood and carry water. After enlightenment, you chop wood and carry water. But your subjective world, your inner world, is forever expanded.

One of my friends told me about a powerful lesson in her daughter’s high school class this winter. They’re learning about the Salem Witch Trials, and their teacher told them they were going to play a game. “I’m going to come around and whisper to each of you whether you’re a witch or a normal person. Your goal is to build the largest group possible that does NOT have a witch in it. At the end, any group found to include a witch gets a failing grade.”

The teens dove into grilling each other. One fairly large group formed, but most of the students broke into small, exclusive groups, turning away anyone they thought gave off even a hint of guilt. “Okay,” the teacher said. “You’ve got your groups. Time to find out which ones fail. All witches, please raise your hands.” No one raised a hand.

The kids were confused and told him he’d messed up the game. “Did I? Was anyone in Salem an actual witch? Or did everyone just believe what they’d been told?”

And that is how you teach kids how easy it is to divide a community.  Keep being welcoming, beautiful people. Shunning, scapegoating and dividing destroy far more than they protect. We’re all in this together. Enjoy our offering this month.

A Facebook friend wrote, “I was just assaulted by woman who was drunk / high out of her mind, stumbling, slurring words, chasing me down the streets of Brooklyn. Touching me in unwanted ways, pulling on my umbrella. What the fuck. It was all I could to say very loudly “stop touching me, stop following me.”  This shit really happens and I couldn’t defend myself or do anything to stop it. All I could do was run away and I was in such shock I couldn’t call the police I couldn’t take a photo or video. I shudder to think if the situation had been reversed that the man would have hurt me. No one would believe me & I’m just fighting back tears on the c train. She tried to followed me onto the subway but either didn’t have a metro card or it was empty. I got very lucky. Happy Fucking Valentine’s Day. Jesus Christ. I’m out of sorts. People don’t do this to each other.”

Andrea writes:  I responded. “I see everything as an agency of the soul, helping us be of value, What a holy honor and yes, a vibrational match. The lifeguard always attracts the swimmer in distress. The fireman always finds the fire. Sometimes the flailing grab onto what they see as a ladder out of their chaos, and they are then a vibrational match to the person who wants to be helpful. Sometimes, in their altered state, they just want to touch the hem of the garment of someone they think can somehow help lift them out of their situation. What’s going on in their minds is likely not some high maniac screeching erratically at a stranger. At this point, her soul is hovering a short distance away watching as her body goes on autopilot until it’s over. Bless you for being there for the broken, even tho it breaks your heart to do so.”

I can be slow sometimes, slow to give something sufficient thought to remedy an easily fixable situation. The past year I’ve been sharing space with a pal, which has worked out remarkably well. But I notice I suddenly spend a lot of time in front of the tv. I only vaguely wondered why that was, since half the time I have a show paused while I text or email work stuff.  Today it hit me that in the process of sharing space, I gave up a couple of rooms where I had ongoing projects laid out. A room was set up for sewing and crafting, one had my art studio, half the living room was set up for making hats and painting angel heart rocks. As I wandered around the house after work each day, I’d sit at this station or that and work awhile on whatever was on the table that day.   Continue reading →

Lots of folks are voicing their opinions about Doreen Virtue‘s move from metaphysical thought to born again Christian fanaticism. Some say she’s following the money since “the New Age left her broke.” Others say she squandered a vast fortune. Neither is true, I knew Doreen for many years. Those in the know know that not everyone who writes books and sells products makes a lot of money. With rare exception, authors and speakers pay their own transportation and hotel costs on book tours, hoping to recoup it through the products and services they sell. As anyone in the metaphysical market knows, very few make a lot of money in it. I’ve read the contracts, I know many authors from many publishing houses and I’ve heard their stories thru the years. Being a best selling author does not always equal big bank.
Tip: Get a good agent. Polish your work so the good agents want you. Otherwise, forget the income and be happy to be in it for the outcome.   Continue reading →
