Heading Out

Just so you are ALL aware, I am taking tomorrow off as I will be attending the second and third sessions for energetics based on the Yuen method.  I will be headed to Atlanta where teacher Jill Isbell (a wonderful teacher whom I highly recommend) will lead the class of what I am beginning to feel will be a rather rowdy group. 

Mr. Magnificent and his soul sister will be together again.  The two are beyond funny.  And even more than that, I have this feeling that each holds a piece of each other’s puzzle.  We shall see. Perhaps I am getting all existential simply because I want to.  Well, there is nothing wrong with that.

I like seeing possibility and magic where others see ordinary.  I’ll keep my vision, thank you very much.  It’s the ones who see beyond that invent, create, search for it and break boundaries. 

I’m searching for it.

Today is the Lunar White Wizard.  I must admit.  The Wizard is one of the kins I feel least connected to and I am not sure why.  Actually, it is the White family.  Interesting.  Perhaps because the White Mirror is in my challenge.  That means I have a ways to go, doesn’t it…

I just spoke gobbldy gook  to you, didn’t I.  Well.  It’s a learning process.  And I am going to cheat on this one as I have no insight of my own.

Guided by death, seek polarity to enchant. 

Remember that death is an ending for a new beginning.  It is not necessarily about people.  It is about thoughts, ideas, actions, beliefs.

Well.  I am leaving early today and much to do.
Just HAD to leave with this:  Enjoy!

This goes out to you Mr. Mag and Nancy!

Refining death

The White Resonant Worldbringer, the symbol of refining death.  Today we are guided by our reflection to find endlessness (did you ever see Watership Down with the two mirrors facing each other to give us a picture of infinity?)  and bring about opportunity.  Face your fears by considering the universe and find power in the creation of a new vision.  Feel deeply and adjust your beliefs.

Death is a moment of awakening and opportunity.  Put in the past those ghosts that haunt and serve no purpose.  If you have not learned your lesson from them by now, then today you should.  Prepare for an awakening.

Not dead... yet

I find it interesting that although we are all part of this human experience, we find mistakes humiliating.  

My daughter has had this tag line as her email signature for years now:  “I have not failed, I've just found 10,000 ways that don't work.”          - Thomas Alva Edison   I love her for this.  And while I accept this as truth, I still find ways to be hard on myself.  

There is that fire burning for everything to come together quickly and perfectly as evidence to my own perfection.  When will I give that up?  I certainly hold no one else to that standard.  As I sit here, I can smile and say “soon”. 

Mistakes mean living, learning, curiosity for something new…

Finding out that Steve Jobs died and then listening to the speech he made six years ago at Stanford, a lot of thoughts run through my mind.  I wonder how many students there that day actually took his advice or even understood what he was actually saying? 

We cannot walk in someone else’s shoes.  We can only consider as if.

I have thought of dying a lot.  Not morbidly.  I have no desire to die. I have no desire to cheat death either… but I do have an honest desire to live to 473 years on this earth.  People laugh at me when I say that, but genetically speaking, there is no reason why I shouldn’t.   

If I die sooner, I’ve allowed myself to be talked into something.  If I die sooner, you can know that I have no real regrets.  I have been following my curiosity and my intuition… and with that, my heart.

I have certainly found more than 10,000 ways that did not work, but the ones that do have more than made up.  My children are my crowning jewels… with the millions of mistakes I have made raising them and the zillions of mistakes they will hopefully make in their life… nothing to me could be more perfect... and perhaps with that I have just found my perfection.

I have been on a mission to find a better way.  Thank you for the company...
