A friend just wrote, “I’ve failed miserably at this game called life. 39 years and I’m no better off then when I was a child. I’ve done nothing and I’ve become nothing.” Having heard those words before, I shared this with him, and it is universally relevant. Years ago, a friend during troubled times came to me for meditation. We began metaphysical discussion and reading Rumi, Hafez nightly and his mind blew open. I shared with him breathing exercises, and spoke of meditation, creative visualization, kundalini awakening, tarot, astrology, totem symbolism, numerology and the chakra system. I could tell the lights were going off as he soaked in more each day. Finally – something that made sense, something he could use to reframe his life to understand why he’d gone through all he’d experienced and how it all led up to that moment. We had intense discussions about energy work, transparency, the fact that it’s all related and karmic implications. You clear up the past and leave nothing unresolved. I witnessed the evolution of thought via his daily writings as he told me how he used the teachings to unravel his past for review. I could see his beliefs evolving and morphing. I watched the light bulbs as they went off. At the time, he was a born again Christian so I used language familiar to him. I share some of it below. Continue reading

I can have lots more fun when I’m responsible with my $$
I used to not pay my bills on time because I didn’t have the money. Then I didn’t pay them on time because they got lost in the shuffle of my other priorities. Then one day I woke up and realized I’m the one in charge of how much money I make and what I set as priorities. Now I do what it takes to make what I need to pay the bills I have and have the fun I want.
An opportunity is never missed, it always comes back around
I did a reading for a friend who was concerned she’d missed an opportunity to lease the home she wanted. When she called back 2 days after seeing it, it had been rented. I told her there was a reason for that and that an opportunity is never missed; it always comes back around. I predicted another home in the same community was not on the market yet but within 5-6 days would be and it would be more suited her needs. She called the listing agent and learned there was. Opportunity is never missed. It always comes back around.
Most people talk about what other people talk about rather than what they experience
I just got an email from yet another person who purports to “channel the same Abraham that Esther Hicks does.” One glance at their work tells me that’s not remotely true. We know what people know when we hear what THEY have to say — not when they are parroting someone else’s words. I find most people talk about what other people talk about rather than what they know from experience. By their fruits we shall know them. My intuition and common sense all help me discern the quality of the fruits I come across. I don’t eat just any apple that falls in my path. More importantly, I say to them: Your own life experience and the lessons you learn are vastly more fascinating than anyone you might want to emulate or any story you can come up with.
“In theory there is no difference between theory and practice. In practice there is.” Yogi Berra
This guy had some wacky zingers but this is one that makes sense. I have friends whom I’ve talked about meditation with for decades. They can discuss for hours but can’t sit to meditate for 10 minutes.
Meditation Twice A Day
I signed up for ObamaCare and must have fallen in the sweet spot
Healthcare.gov. I have no complaints whatsoever. I signed up last week. I must fall into all the right categories with age and income because mine is only $25 a month, with providers two miles away, low deductibles and affordable out of pocket maximums. I was happy to get a plan for $25 a month. I’m 61, no health issues, take no medication, eat a healthy diet and exercise daily. The plan has doctors 2 miles away, low deductible, low total out of pocket. The website was easy to navigate. I got dental for $10 a month, the providers are one mile away. I’m stoked. My boyfriend got the same, we’re the same age, both self employed, numbers about the same, we must fall into the magic place. A friend complains loud and long about it being “unaffordable” yet if they had their income ON the books, they would qualify for a giant credit and it would cost them about $30 a month. I have no complaints whatsoever.I realize I’m in control of what I attract, according to my belief and expectation. I’m not being flippant when I say I expect it all to work out in the end and if it doesn’t, it’s not the end and I have more time to turn it all around.
Don’t complain about the government if you don’t vote and you hide income
A friend complains loud and long about the “unfair” government and “unaffordable” ACA health insurance, yet if they had their income ON the books, they would qualify for a giant credit and it would cost them about $30 a month. Don’t complain about the government if you don’t vote and you work off the books to hide income. There are legal ways to pay less taxes — don’t go to extremes by assuming that you have to cheat and lie about income. If you really want to get out of debt and make money, you need to be as honest as possible.

So we were looking at rings today…
Mood rings, that is! I got this one with a dolphin on it. I’ve always liked these quirky rings, and now I know how they work. I thought you might like to know as well. I got it at The Herb Corner for $1.50 when I went in for some En-Balance Hormone Balancing Blend capsules for the hot flashes. I want to see what color it turns when I flash! How do mood rings change color? Liquid crystals are the secret to the mood ring’s changing array of colors. The clear glass stone in the ring is either filled with the liquid crystals or sits directly on top of a thin layer of the substance that has been adhered to a sterling setting. Continue reading
Friday night under the lights!
Q: Are we boring because we sit around on Friday night singing songs to the cat rather than going out drinking and partying?
A: No, that’s what it’s all about.
The magic of making amends with those you have unclean energies with
![Armand Della Volpe "If you don't release your garbage, it will stink up your house and you will dump it on others."... yogi armandananda](http://horizonsmagazine.com/blog/wp-content/uploads/2014/03/Armand-w-o-Angelina-same-pic-copy.jpg)

“If you don’t release your garbage, it will stink up your house and you will dump it on others.”… yogi armandananda
Armand Della Volpe writes, “While pondering the possibility that every day may be my last, I wrote 5 people love letters that each contained some apologetic amends. These were the only 5 people in the world that I was conscious of having unclean energies with. Most of them responded within 12 hours. I received some of the most loving, appreciative and forgiving responses. It felt so good to be cleaner and clearer with myself and others. This morning I became more aware that God had written to God and God had responded. The more I surrender to Oneness and Humility, the more kind and loving my reflections are. There truly is only 1 of us. I am aware that as I release samskaras, more may show up. I don’t pretend to say I have healed everything with everyone. LOL” The fact that he acknowledges this and takes responsibility sends a huge signal to the Universe. The details are irrelevant and no one else’s business. Continue reading
