Everything frost burnt is growing back!

I like the daylight saving time, because I like daylight later into the night.  Yesterday evening I was hand watering plants, and I noticed that all the arbicola that had been frost burnt back in January was all growing back.  All of it, all up along the stalk new sprouts and leaves were coming on.  I was so glad I’d not cropped them when they looked dead.  I could see they still had life force in their energy field.  Thank you Barbara Brennan and Donna Eden for teaching me to read auras so I could interpret the energy field.

The live oak trees are getting their new leaves and filling out, and the same with the mulberry tree, which now has a gazillion tiny mulberries.  The loquats didn’t lose their leaves, but now they are all filling with loquats.  The cold will have made them sweet.  The laurel oaks did not lose their leaves, the orchid tree that lost everything has new leaves. Even the grass seed put down by the city after they installed the city water pipes is growing green and tall.  It seems new growth is everywhere.

A good sign.

Why The Law of Attraction Doesn’t Work For Everyone

There’s an ad on Facebook lately that says Esther Hicks Secrets – Free video reveals what Esther Hicks accidentally left out of the teachings of Abraham. Readers of Esther Hick’s Books or “The Secret” are about to discover Why The Law of Attraction Does Not Work For Nearly Everyone Who Wants to Use It.  If you consider millions of people saw “The Secret” as a movie, you have to ask, why doesn’t “The Secret” work?  Even if you follow everything Esther and Jerry Hicks teach in their books, many people just aren’t able to manifest their dreams.  The reason is simple. Esther Hicks and the authors of “The Secret” left off the most critical step. On the very next page, you’ll discover what was left out – and why.  The Law of Attraction Does Not Work Unless You Add This Missing Step.  Enter Your Email Address To Discover This Step and Receive A Free Hypnotic Recording.

I clicked on the ad, knowing it would take me to a page where I would get no info other than the above until after I’d given out my email address to get signed up on someone’s never-ending spam list to discover their ‘missing step”.  I’ve learned to never sign up for anything that uses fear to sell to me, and to never give my email address out for a free gift just to access a website.  In the past I’ve purposely spelled my name wrong just to see how many lists someone new will add me to without my permission and it was dozens.

Talking Instead of Listening: L.A. Ink, Season 5 Episode 4

Last night I watched L.A. Ink for the first time in awhile. I see Kat Von D has had some facial plastic done, as her face has that weirdly frozen above the upper lip line look.  She used to have a beautiful fluid smile.  In tonight’s episodes, Kat hires a new employee and Liz Friedman comes in with no background in the business, and with all sorts of ideas.  She opens by telling the camera that she’s smarter than most people she knows.  She sees herself as the new shop manager, when it appears she’s been hired to help out.  The first two days Liz reminds everyone that she comes from a corporate background, that she’s used to running the show.  She’s a wise ass, she’s sarcastic and her humor revolves around cutting people down.  Continue reading

Talking about it: My Kimberly-Clark Poise Pad Experiment

A friend on Facebook posted a link to Whoopie Goldberg’s LBL video about Great Women in History It’s a cute and funny presentation about LBL, light bladder leakage.  She posted it the week I had my giant coughing going on, so I could totally relate.  I reposted the video and wrote: “A good post from a friend. And yes kegels exercises work if you work them. If your winter coughing makes you nervous in public, protect yourself.”  Then I decided I’d try an experiment. Continue reading

Cats Use Special Purr to Manipulate Humans

Jennifer Viegas, Discovery News, wrote on  July 13, 2009 — Cat owners who think their cats control them now have some scientific confirmation: Animal vocalization experts have just identified a special manipulative purr that felines have evolved, in part, to get what they want from people.  The newly identified vocalization, called “solicitation purring,” has never been acknowledged or studied before, although cat fanciers, such as the study’s lead author Karen McComb, are quite familiar with it.  “In the case of my cat, if he sees you stirring from sleep at all in the early morning he will immediately switch into giving this solicitation purring and position himself next to your head so you get the full impact,” McComb, a reader in Behavioral Ecology at the University of Sussex, told Discovery News.

Stock Market Psychic Sean David Morton Charged With Duping Investors

At Stock Market ‘Psychic’ Charged With Duping Investors, David Solin writes: “You have to give Sean David Morton, the head of Delphi Associates Investment Group, high marks for self-promotion. According to a complaint filed Thursday in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York (Securities and Exchange Commission v. Sean David Morton, et. al.), Morton solicited investors by falsely claiming he had “… called ALL the highs and lows of the market giving EXACT DATES for rises and crashes over the last 14 years.” He issued a monthly newsletter, had a nationally syndicated radio show, and made appearances at public events, touting his psychic abilities.  He dedicated one issue of his newsletter to his stepfather, who he claimed “… raised me to know what is right and I would not be the person I am without him.” The SEC complaint raises serious questions about exactly what kind of person he is.  According to George S. Canellos, director of the SEC’s New York Regional Office, “Morton’s self-proclaimed psychic powers were nothing more than a scam to attract investors and steal their money.” Continue reading

A Vision of the Blessed Virgin Mary in my Garden, Part Deux

A friend kept forgetting she has her speaker system hooked up to her lap top, turned low, and the other day she was looking around to see where the voices were coming from, thinking… is that someone outside of the house?  No…perhaps the spirits are just being louder than normal.  It reminded me of an interesting story I have about seeing the Blessed Virgin Mary in my east garden a few years ago.  Seeing a vision of the Blessed Mother?  Am I crazy?  Not at all.  Through the years I’ve had my share of visions and one on one experiences.  I have a daily meditation and prayer practice, so I figure the visions are the natural result of that.  Just another way for the Universe to get my attention and communicate with me.  I’d first seen the Blessed Mother in the mid 90’s at a particular spot in my east garden, and afterward I cleared a small space there for her.  I even had my bedroom window removed and a sliding glass door installed afterward, so I could use that area as a daily contemplation focus.  During the vision, she spoke with me and we interacted in a very real way.  I had no doubt who she was, and the sense of peace and comfort she brought has never left me.    Continue reading

How can you expect a $$ windfall when you are on a fixed income?

dollars flying blue sky2After yesterday’s post A Creative Visualization to Attract Dollars, my friend Domino wrote me: I know this might sound ridiculous, but I feel loads of resistance to visualizing checks payable to me in a mailbox coming from “out of the blue.” I get paid the same amounts from the same sources and they’re all direct deposited. I find my analytical mind getting in the way of my visualizing. And I can literally FEEL the resistance. How can I get past that? I would definitely appreciate any tips you might have toward getting past this. My mind gets in my way. HELP! Continue reading

A Creative Visualization to Attract Money in the Mailbox

mailbox-money-redOne thing I really like about my life is that it is an ongoing research project.  I like seeing scientific proof that if I do A, B and C, then D is the natural result. I talk with a lot of people during the course of a week and I love seeing patterns emerge in their topics of interest.  One topic of universal interest is attracting more dollars, and the easiest way I know to do that is using creative visualization.  Here’s a creative visualization tip to practice for 2 minutes each five times a day:
