A friend wanted to do some real soul searching on her own and I sent her to this free site of mine Sisters Of The Circle, a free online inner retreat site. How can I best discover what I am here for and what work might be mine to do? How do our lives – yours and mine – twine together, how do we fit into each other’s purpose and mission, if we do? I’ve discovered a lot of tips and tricks along the way, many gleaned from insights received during my own personal spiritual development retreats. Continue reading

My Full Moon Saturday, Pruning by the Moon Phase, The Perfect Time to Place the Craigslist Ad For Best Response
Spanish Needle
It feels like a holiday weekend. Most holidays are busy days for my work. For the most part, my work is not one I need to have a vacation from. A holiday to me simply means I get a day off from making a bank and post office run. I began Saturday filled with the full moon energy, fertile and nurturing, buying tomato cages and repotting everything with potting soil. As I watered, I began pulling grass and weeds that had encroached into the mulched bedding areas. Some weeds I keep, such as the important Spanish Needle. The bees love them, and they have medicinal qualities. I pulled up all of the garden bricks I’d edged the new saplings with last year, and used them to line a walkway. Continue reading
I Placed My Craigslist Rental Ad
I wasn’t going to place my Craigslist ad for the rental home until next week. Then I thought, why should I deny everyone who’ll be off for the weekend with time to look, when it’s those who think ahead that will be the vibrational match to my lovely offering. I got my current tenants through Craigslist and they’ve been heavenly tenants. Wait, I think they have. I haven’t been there for months… Anyway, Craigslist, let the games begin!
UPDATE: 24 hours later, the perfect new tenant 🙂
Happy birthday, Ralph Waldo Emerson
“Finish every day and be done with it. You have done what you could; some blunders and absurdities no doubt crept in; forget them as soon as you can. Tomorrow is a new day; you shall begin it serenely and with too high a spirit to be encumbered with your old nonsense.” Ralph Waldo Emerson
Tomato cages and repotting everything with potting soil
Tomato cages was my first thought this morning when I awoke, full of last night’s full moon energy. I’ve been putting in the hanging herb and veggie garden and realized the tomatoes were growing too quickly to keep in the hanging baskets. I began the day with a run to Walmart for tomato cages then came back and repotted my 2 tomato plants in gallon buckets with the cages. In this pic, the tomatoes are on either side, and the hanging coconut husk baskets are filled with thai basil, bee balm, peppermint and peppers, suspended on a length of bamboo between two shepherd’s hooks. You can see my line of loquat saplings behind, and my rosemary bush. My back is to the street, this is my only sunny spot for veggies! This way, as the sun moves, I can keep the tomatoes in as much full sun as they need. Most of my yard is under deep shade, which I love. That lets me keep windows open much of the year. Life is good.
Modern medicine is amazing, prayer works and miracles happen every day. This is how we change a thoughtform.
I’m often asked to pray for friends and have a healing bench here where I do that daily. It’s important to remember that modern medicine is amazing, especially in cancer treatment. Anything is possible. Miracle cures happen every day. Prayer works. The belief and expectation of everyone the patient knows can uplift them to a place of happiness and comfort. Holding thoughts or recalling them being well and active and laughing will go a long way in changing the current consciousness of those who think about their condition, for them and for others with it as well. When the thoughtform changes, the situation changes. This is how we change a thoughtform. A few with focused intent in the direction of a positive outcome is more powerful than a million with scattered thoughts and no intention. We can each perform miracles as we uplift each other and remind ourselves who we really are and what is really possible.

Tarot Card of the Day: 2 of Cups Reversed
Meditate upon the meaning this card might have for you since it showed up for you at this exact moment.
MEANING: The 2 of Cups often refers to romantic partnership even when reversed, but that is not its only connotation. It can speak of balance, friendship, joy, and sharing. In general the reversed 2 is a card that says that things are likely to be going well but getting real and some course correction may be in order before it’s too late. Be careful that you are not causing problems in other areas of life by over attention to your love life. Continue reading
The importance of making connection before submitting your request
Being lazy today, I typed some messages to clients on my iPad and it was only hours later I discovered the messages had never been sent. I found that out when I went to look for a response and saw no record of what I’d typed. Apparently the iPad lost its wifi signal and I did not know it. I thought, how often does that happen in real life: where I am asking for something specifically and in detail and waiting and waiting for a response and not getting it. And all along the problem was merely that I’d failed to make the proper connection before submitting my request. Isn’t that always the way!
UPDATE: I’m glad I did, since hours later I received notice from my tenant they would be moving, yet 24 hours later it was rented again. I wrote about it here -> And THIS is how we manifest with vibrational matching

This is what the internet is for, to grow our circle of beloved friends and family through sharing our lessons and our joys.
Masaru Emoto: Using conscious intention produces measurable effects
A famous study by Dr. Masaru Emoto demonstrates that the energy of our thoughts has a direct effect on the geometric structure of water molecules within ice crystal formations. I find this most compelling since our bodies are made up of water, and the words we speak to ourselves and others gets embedded in our cells. I’m not nice and forgiving because I’m such a nice person. I just have awakened to the knowing that is how we program ourselves and that everything comes back to us because we are literally All One. Sure I forget for short spurts, but when I get my own backlash, I recall pretty quickly and correct my course. Here’s the article and links. Continue reading
