Standing Up On My Own Two Feet

Saturday, March 26, 2016 at 6:34pm and I'm doing my best to keep distractions at bay so I can further my plans as I enjoy this journey toward achieving my goals of traveling and living in and working from our camper van, Serenity.  I've created a nice little portable spiritual altar or nook for myself that will likely find a home in the front of the van as there is a small round table that can be planted in the floor there...and the seats can rotate as well so I have a nice cozy place to meditate, commune with Spirit, work with Tarot.  Then I will record my story through blogs, twitter, Instagram and maybe even YouTube.

A journey of learning, gaining knowledge and wisdom and finding out just how wonderful people can be as we all continue to build our relationships with Spirit on this journey of life we get to experience...a cosmic gift that we must not waste.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Guide of Swords and Seeing Our Lives Through Divine Eyes

Saturday, October 4th, 2014.  As hard I might try I have a hard time sleeping in on the weekend.  This morning I was awake and ready to get of bed just after 5:30am.  My mind was clear and nary a thought crossed my mind but sleep evaded me so as the clock had already ticked past 6am I decide to just get out of bed instead of waiting for sleep to wash over me again.

I discovered that I can do some quick meditation standing up these days although this morning I preferred to sit for a spell and simply “be” as I sat for several minutes communing with Spirit. And then suddenly I just had to get up and start shuffling my Tarot deck.  Oddly enough as I was shuffling the deck a card somehow flipped over.  At first I thought I was just seeing things then I caught another glimpse of the card and then it was on top of the deck, my card of the day.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Guide of Swords: A wider perspective.  Altruistic thoughts.  Messages from the higher self.”

As much as I try to be the author of my own life I also know, maybe understand is a better word, that my life is also guided by and influenced by Spirit.  The more we meditate, the more we commune with Spirit, the more we work with Tarot, the more open are we to the gentle presence and guidance of Spirit in our lives.  When we see our lives through Divine eyes, we are living life as much as life is living us and we are moving along in harmony with Spirit, with the cosmic forces that guide us and help us move along with living our lives with purpose.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

2 of Swords and Making Decisions

Two days off and I’m happy to have them.  I thoroughly enjoy my work with Elections BC however having days off never hurts either.  Yesterday was a relatively quiet day and the office was warm for a change, almost too hot if you can believe it.  Then the evening was spent with a one of our friends, we invited over for dinner as we always seem to have more food than the two of us can eat and it never hurts spending time with friends.  Then the evening was over, he went home, we cleaned up, relaxed a bit then went to bed.

I awoke this morning before 6:00am.  I was looking forward to sleeping in and awaking after 7am but I guess that was not in the cards.  I tried to drift back into dreamland but I just tossed and turned so I dragged myself out of bed after twenty minutes of doing that.  Another beautiful day greets me and I’m glad to be awake and have some alone time.  I had time with my thoughts and reflected on one that I had yesterday where in the middle of something I was doing at work I blurted out “I want to live in my RV”.  Knowing that this is something that I want to do I realized, that I can do it any time I want really.  Not a lot is stopping other than me making the decision to actually do it.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “2 of Swords: Meditation.  Closing your eyes to outer circumstances in order to gain perspective or to avoid a decision.  Refusing to act".

And lo and behold this card is totally representative of my waffling and refusal to make a decision about where I want my life to go.  I cannot do anything proper or well if I sit on the fence and waffle about the decision.  I’ve more or less being doing this for the past seven years.  I think it is high time I made a decision and move on one way or another.  Then I might be able to make something of my life, whatever the decision is that I make.

And I do want to live in my RV.

Thank you Spirit.

Blessed Be.

VI The Lovers and Patience and Flexibility

I had a good day yesterday and slept rather well last night.  I awoke a little earlier than I thought I would however I’m happy to be awake and enjoying the darkness and silence of this early morning hour.

I meditated for awhile ,not sure how long, just a simple exercise on focused breathing and no intentions but what an amazing feeling this was.  My physical body seemed to disappear.  I was no longer confined by the constraints of a physical body and had an experience like no other.  Cannot and will not try to explain as words are simply not enough.  Wow!  Meditation is my new best friend.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is “VI The Lovers: A relationship is always a mingling of differences.  A powerful relationship.  Seeing both sides of an issue.  Flexibility".  I understand the need to make a decision and I think I rather have however my decision will not be executed in the immediate term, at least not all aspects of it. 

I will continue to strive being the author of my own life and I will continue to live a Pagan/Wiccan way of life practising as much Witchcraft along the way that I can.  I will work hard at finding temporary and part-time “jobs” so that I can ready my RV for travel and then I will hit the road this summer and do as many outings with it that I can so I get a feel for the RVing way of life in preparation for full-time living in an RV.  This is all about flexibility and my ability to work my way toward my truest dreams and goals without sacrificing the good things I have in my life right now.  I will get there and a part of my getting there is patience and the ability to see the bigger picture.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Knowing Oneself

I know I was dreaming last night however do you think I can remember anything of them?  I vaguely recall dreaming about an acquaintance we know or so I think, could be a total stranger, even myself for all I know.  Answers, answers, answers seem to be the word to describe this dream though.  This is the overall impression I have of my sleep last night.  And as I was thinking about the last statement the thought that came to my mind is one of me looking within myself and exploring every nook and cranny that makes me up as a human being.  It was like tearing something apart in order to get a look inside to see what makes it tick, like a clock or watch, perfect analogy.  I was looking within myself to see what makes me tick.

With that being said, Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot Card dropped from the deck as I was shuffling, “II The Intuitive: To be true to oneself, one must know oneself.  Looking within for answers.  Meditation. Intuition.  Exploring that which is normally hidden.”  What I remember of my dreams quite accurately reflect today’s Tarot Card and if I combine this with what I read and take from my horoscope I need to look at the larger picture of what I want life to be and just let it be.  I apparently cannot allow myself to get too hung up on the details and simply go for it.  Things will work out with me simply doing, instead of fretting.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Sage of Coins

Yesterday was an awesome day because my partner had co-workers over for dinner and by the time dinner was over and they headed out the door to their respective homes I had orders for almost one hundred handcrafted Christmas Cards.  I’m flabbergasted and honoured by their appreciation of my efforts and quite humbled to receive such a large order of cards from as few as five people.  Now I have to get to work and make all of these cards.  They also love the name of my little enterprise, "Odds n Ends Scraps and Crafts".  Finally, I get to earn a bit of income from something I love to do, love to do just because.

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Sage of Coins: Working with resources rather trying to control them.  A mature appreciation of the natural world.  Patience."  I get a sense that I need to work more with trying to communicate with Spirit and Tarot than trying to get them to communicate with me.  They are already talking to and with me, it is I who am not hearing what they are saying.  I have a blockage that comes and goes and is more often in the way than out so I need to meditate and relax and truly let Spirit, Tarot, and Magick into my life so I can become a better person as well as the person I am meant to be.  And as part of this I must give up some control to them so they can provide me with much direction and advice and steer me onto the path I must be on in this life in order to live the life of my dreams.


Thanks for stopping by.

Blessed Be.
