The "2 of Swords" and Taking Time to Meditate In Order to Make a Decision Not Avoid One

Took the night off last night.  Didn't want to do anything.  Ideally, I would have liked to been alone but I did my best to meditate and let Spirit be with me and accommodate being in a relationship.  Definitely in need of some alone time.  I was actually telling my partner this morning that I am in need of a hike and a nature fix.

Spirit Is and today's Gay Tarot Energy 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.”

Decision made, I'm selling Serenity, my camper van either via consignment on the dealer's lot where I purchased her or through an auto auction.  I'll be happy to break even and get the loan paid off and no longer have to deal with storage fees or extra auto insurance.  Money saved, and freedom to better undertake my spiritual calling...

... the “2 of Swords" imploring me, imploring us to give some time to meditation but not at the expense of making a decision or taking action on some important matter in our lives.  If we meditate at this time it must be to gain perspective and give us the will, strength and courage to make a well-thought out decision that leads to the right course of action.

As I was thinking about meditation this is where the thought of getting out in nature came to mind and in a specific area.  I want to go back and visit the trees around Rolley Lake.  This is where I felt the life force and energy of a few trees through touch as well as  through the air and I also heard their sweet voices...once the weather is a bit drier...a visit to Rolley Lake is in order.

Nature, meditation, making a decision and taking action...a great plan to get things done and keep our lives in order.

Thank You Spirit.

"X The Wheel" and Moving to the Center

Another night of such deep and sound sleep that I again do not remember having a single dream however as I awoke this morning feeling that I spent the night in the spiritual realms, the world of Spirit.  As I relaxed into a meditative state this morning with candles alit and incense smoking I entered a state of purity, of utter stillness, and simply was.  I no longer heard myself breathing or the sounds of the morning, I was nowhere and everywhere but not in the physical sense.  My existence moved beyond my physical body and my mind expanded into infinity and beyond.

Spirit Is and today's Tarot Energy is and I am “X The Wheel of Life: If life on the rim makes you dizzy, move to the centre. Awareness of the cycles of life. Equanimity. A change in fortunes. Guidance from your future or past self.”

Meditation filled my mind as I immersed and lost myself in “X The Wheel of Life".  As I gave to the energy of this card, images “II The Intuitive" and thoughts of meditation filled my mind as the phrase "move to the centre" filled my ears.  Slow down and you will find stillness and a roadmap of sorts that offers a smoother path through life.  Continue to give yourself over to and be guided by Spirit.  As the incense rises and wafts through the air let yourself do the same, open yourself up and let world around you fill you up with the natural spirit and energy that is waiting for you to experience as it wants to experience you.

Thank You Spirit.

The '8 of Coins' and Remaking Life, My Life

Friday, May 20, 2016.  Another day, another day of week but the end of the week although a weekend of travel, a quick trip to Quesnel and back.  As by the time we arrive in Quesnel and leave to return here to Vancouver will entail a little more than a forty hour turnaround time.  If that makes any sense.

However, what better healing salve for life's stresses and strains than spending time with loving family members--father, brother, and sister and all who accompany each of them?  It fills me much joy, happiness and contentment just thinking about the time we'll be spending together.

Spirit Is and today's Gay Tarot Energy is the “8 of Coins: The Factory.  Skill and mastery.  Tedious, repetitive labour.  Slow and methodical progress."

"Slow and methodical progress" is what's on the agenda for the next while.  I have to put my head to the grindstone and work on making my life the way I need it to be or at least where I think I need myself to be at this point in time.

First I need to divest myself of the things I do not need even though it may be hard to part with them if such an exercise has me thinking long and hard about leaving nothing off the table so-to-speak.  I really need to strip my life down to the bare minimum.  And no need to worry I do not feel like I am sacrificing anything but rather investing in life, my life to be exact.

This is where "Skill and mastery" and "Tedious, repetitive labour" come into play as I need to really get into living a truly spiritual life where meditation and solitude play a big part.  I need to spend time in and with nature and I need to be better and more lovingly involved in and with my relationship.  My life requires a serious investment, a serious investment from me and such a wonderful investment as this will require an unyielding commitment and dedication on my part.

Thank You Spirit.

Namaste.

The 'Seven of Pentacles' and Tweaking Our Efforts with Stronger Focus Through Meditation with Nature

Friday, April 29, 2016.  Still enjoying our vacation although Serenity is now parked in storage again.  On a selfish note, at point during our stay at the Elwha Dam RV Park I thought to myself how nice it would be to be alone right now, alone with my own thoughts only having Spirit by my side.  Oh, Edith and Eugene would likely be sitting somewhere too!

Such a thought is not a bad thing and rather more likely an indication that I and perhaps we both some alone time...to simply be the individuals that we are.  Yes, I need to go camping by myself with only Spirit and as my guide and companion...

Spirit's time is now and today's Pagan Tarot Energy is the "Seven of Pentacles: Our Witch is practicing magick on plants again!  This time she is feeling frustrated because the plant isn't growing at all.  What she doesn't see is that while she is doing something wrong, she is doing something right.  Although the potted plant isn't growing, the rosebush behind her is growing and blooming like crazy.  If you are working really hard at something and don't see results, step back and take a look at the bigger picture.  Your power and ability may very well be in great working order - you might just need a little tweaking of your practices or stronger focus."

This is what the "Seven of Pentacles" is emphasizing for me today, "If you are working really hard at something and don't see results"..."you might just need a little tweaking of your practices or stronger focus."

This is been brought home to me in another area as well, working on my Experimental Railroad.  As I'm getting closer permanently affixing the track to the layout I see how tweaking I need to do to the roadbed in order to have a smooth flowing and easy transition of track from a flat run to a grade or hill, if you will.  Lots of minor adjustments are needed to get the trains running smoothly without hesitating as they go from one piece of track to another including through switches/turnouts.

So as with my model railroad so too does my spiritual life need some fine tuning and some minor adjustments made.  And especially in the area of focus, I really do need a stronger focus on my spirit and this can happen through the simple act of meditation, meditation that can take the form of a walk or hike through nature, of finding a place to stop and let nature take control where I become a part of the natural setting I'm in.  

And now that I think about it Elwha was such a spot and perhaps why I not only had the thought but the desire to be alone.  The RV Park had what I think I called a wonderful and stunning silence...nature in all her glory...beautiful and amazing!

Thank You Spirit.

Namaste.

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 '3 of Cups' and a Quiet, Loving and Happy Weekend

Saturday, February 27, 2016.  A relaxing Friday after a disastrous end to the work day is exactly what I needed.  Walking through the door of our beautiful home and being welcomed by a loving partner washed away all the stress of the work day.  In fact, I completely forgot about the job.  I was home.  I returned to being who I am really am, Wizard Oron.

So with an evening filled with love, friendship, companionship and full on spiritual relaxation today's Gay Tarot Energy is no surprise, the “3 of Cups: A Good Time.  Happy, comfortable times together.  Quiet enjoyment. Celebration."

This is a relaxing weekend although an excursion or two are in order so I can renew the car insurance, maybe visit the hobby shop, and get rid of an unwanted item or two.  But it will be an entirely homey weekend!

Likely, I'll go out and do just what I have to so I can return home quickly and spend time working on my layout as well as communing with Spirit by meditating on the “3 of Cups", looking at the card as I sit and relax here and there throughout the day.  I'll likely be holding my bag of stones and crystals as I do this allowing their energy to direct and focus my thoughts on ways to move toward a more spiritually satisfying career where I can not only be true to myself but also reveal myself to the world around me without facing ridicule from ignorant co-workers and employers.

Wizard Oron is who I am and the career I choose!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The '2 of Swords' and Some Serious Meditation

Monday, February 22, 2016.  After bragging about sleeping well since I placed a piece of amethyst under my pillow I had a sleepless night.  No particular reason I can pinpoint to this however I awoke many, many times throughout the night and then based on my best estimate I likely did not sleep for the last hour before the alarm the serenaded us.

Today's Gay Tarot Energy 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.”

Is this a rebuke because I have failed to act on the changes the universe has set out for me?  Or is this a directive for me to go into a full meditation in order to make the best decision and then act accordingly?  Meditation will more than likely clear up this confusion.  In fact, I know it will!

I need to take some serious quiet time for myself and devote it to a goodly amount of meditation so I can really clear my mind and see with more clarity the future I must head for.  For starters, I will close my eyes for 5 or ten minutes each evening and give myself over to the universal energy and silence that will take over and provide me with the clarity and direction I must head, the direction I am most likely seeking without consciously recognizing it.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

'IX The Hermit' and Seeking Your Guide...and That'd Be YOU!

Monday, August 17th, 2015.  Sunday was another simple and relaxing day for us.  Sure we had our weekly grocery run to make and had plans to go for a short bike ride bit the day was beautifully and simply ordinary and mundane.  The bike ride never happened but we got out for an afternoon coffee and short stroll and long the river.

I relaxed, studied, learned, grew and evolved as I continued to build my wonderful study guide.  This is all a result of my inner guide and the strengthening connection I'm building with the cosmos and infinite energy and spark of life that created and connects us all.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today's visiting Tarot is "IX The Hermit.  Break an unnecessary habit.  Take steps to eliminate unhealthy ruts and routines.  Have some of your “friends” been driving you crazy?  Now is a good time to get them out of your life.  Don’t let yourself get stuck in the expectations of others.  When reversed: Spend time with someone you love; take care of unfinished business.  Don’t let your responsibilities weigh you down and stay away from anything that goes against your grain."

"IX The Hermit" brings about thoughts of introspection, searching, guidance, and solitude.  It's a time of going it alone and turning off the voices of others and greater society so we can delve into our own thoughts, ideas, opinions and identities.  The guidance we seek best comes from within, let's learn to seek out and trust the information we glean from meditation and dreams, from taking a walk in nature, as we listen to the crashing waves, or listen to the heartbeat and voice of the earth.  Today is about listening with our eyes closed and not listening with our ears but instead our hearts and souls, listen with your spirit and discover a whole new world and whole new way of being.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

'18 The Moon on Water' and Being Within the Consciousness of the Universe

Friday, August 7th, 2015.  Another week at the job is behind me.  The job is not all that difficult and is in many ways quite enjoyable however I have another path I must follow.  Although, I cannot remember very clearly a couple of dreams I had last alluded to that path as does today's visiting Tarot, "18 The Moon on Water heralds a time of inner transformation, initiation, or awareness.  This may take the form of a seemingly random situation based on the emotional or spiritual spheres, but your inner voice may have been whispering for some time and gone unheeded.  Now your soul brings into your physical world the symbolic keys to the collective human subconscious.  This may take the form of a desire to investigate or study a doctrine, philosophy or esoteric pursuit, or the wish to explore the untapped sexual energy and experience a tighter spiritual bond with a partner through honesty and the expression of your hidden desires.  From here, you can begin to wrestle with the concept that consciousness is not within you, but that you are within the consciousness of the universe."

What strikes me the most is that "...your soul brings into your physical world the symbolic keys to the collective human subconscious...This may take the form of a desire to investigate or study a doctrine, philosophy or esoteric pursuit...From here, you can begin to wrestle with the concept that consciousness is not within you, but that you are within the consciousness of the universe."

As I read the first part of the quoted text what came immediately to my mind was the study of mediumship, developing intuition. and learning better empathic communication.  Much of this study strengthened with the practice of meditation.  Oh, and to further my practice of ventriloquism...

...and then I simply ask where is the 'Moon on Water' leading you?  Don't take time to think about it.  What immediately came to mind?

Another thing is knowing that we're "within the consciousness of the universe" is also knowing that we are then a part of the universe and have at our fingertips all of the universal knowledge and wisdom that we can and likely cannot even imagine...an infinite wisdom that goes beyond human comprehension.  Thus our need to acknowledge and accept that we are indeed "within the consciousness of the universe".  And what a wonderful knowledge this is.

Thank You Spirit.

The 8 of Coins of Taking a Slow Methodical Approach

Tuesday, September 30, 2014.  I had a decent night last night albeit still feeling under the weather.  A friend popped by to visit however I cut the visit short as I started feeling more under the weather than earlier in the day and wanted nothing more than to crawl into bed.  So off to bed around 10pm again last night.

Spirit is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “8 of Coins: The Factory.  Skill and mastery.  Tedious, repetitive labor.  Slow and methodical progress.”

So another message to continue to move forward with my goals through growing spiritually by way of continued work with Tarot, meditation, coaching and chakra studies and of course, working on my model railroad.  So over the next nine or ten months I’ll be working toward my new career and travels in a van conversion.  I want to be debt free and free of any large financial obligations other than vehicle insurance, food costs, and telephone and internet fees.

Sometimes the slow approach is the best one and the best way to go about achieving our desires even though we often want them to happen sooner rather than later.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Intuitive and Time for Quiet Meditation

Sunday, March 30, 2014.  We’ve had a productive weekend so far.  Yesterday, we replaced our toilet; I cleaned up my crafting are, and got a few other things organized, and I became closer to Spirit and understanding where I need to be and go in life.  I think next weekend will see some progress being made on my model railroad as I want to get it up and running in one way or another.  Thank You Spirit.

I rested and slept well.  And the day is dryer and brighter than yesterday but the possibility of rain is still in the air.  As I awoke I pondered the idea of what is like to wake up in an RV whether it is my old Class C or a new van conversion.  Then the idea struck that my old Class C does offer more space and even if old, if the engine and mechanical is fixed and okay she should be quite drivable with very few problems.  Hhhmmm…

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is “II The Intuitive: To be true to oneself, one must know oneself.  Looking within for answers.  Meditation. Intuition.  Exploring that which is normally hidden.”

It is also, “SUNDAY (SUN): Healing, spirituality, success, strength, and protection.”

And the Moon is in “ARIES: Good for starting things, but lacks staying power. Things occur rapidly; but quickly pass. People tend to be argumentative and assertive.”

Some of the unconscious becomes awareness in the conscious mind as an idea, thought, or memory.  Does a conversation from the last few days have significance or meaning to you today.  Do you need to spend some time by yourself perhaps, a little quiet time and meditation are in order so further guidance or direction can be revealed.  Turn off the phone, the computer, the laptop, disconnect from the rest of the world for a spell and see what messages Spirit has for you, for us today.  A little divine awareness is the order of the day.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

The Youth of Coins and Exercising Heart, Mind, Body, and Spirit!

Tuesday, March 11th, 2014.  Yesterday was a decent day.  I met with a member of the Friday morning business networking group I belong to as he was going to assist me in understanding the concept of these groups a little better.  However, since having been terminated from my job for speaking up my membership at this point has no use.  Unless of course, I can promote my own business and toot my own horn, if you will.  Anyway during the course of our breakfast he suggested that I apply for a refund considering how new my membership is.  I put in a couple of calls so now it is “wait and see” time.  Not important but worth trying, I guess.

However, perhaps I can explore the promotion of my handcrafted greeting card business too!  I need to build myself a better website though and one where people can make online orders and purchases -- need to explore this a little bit more.  I’ll make a call to the website hosting company I use to get a few things set up.  It will take spending some money however I will then be set up to earn money in the end so this could be a good thing.  Ideas are coming into my mind as I write this.

As my brother is quite often fond of saying, this is the kick in the pants I need to get me going.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is the “Youth of Coins: Focusing on the physical.  Beginning a regimen.  Matters relating to nutrition and exercise.”

Another reminder along with the nice weather, that keeping our bodies healthy is important and a key component to a spiritually healthy life too!  So we need to provide not only our physical bodies with good nutrition and exercise but this also goes for our hearts, minds, and spirits.  Candles, incense, meditation, chants, and songs, and a good dose of time with nature can do a whole lot to and for our health and well-being.  As winter releases its grip, good weather makes more of an appearance, and spring being just around the corner with the Sap Moon on the rise we need to break out of winter clothes and doldrums and get outdoors to welcome the burst of new life that is about to happen.

Refresh, renew, exercise, and breathe in the new spring energy that is coming over the horizon.  Open arms wide, disentangle the mind from its sleepy winter blanket, and allow your Spirit to burst out with new growth and blossom as the days become longer and life once again begins anew.

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

II The Intuitive and Taking Action Through Being Still

We got in last night around 7:30pm or so, grabbed our showers, then relaxed for an hour or so before grabbing a light snack after eating a heavy meal and having a few drinks earlier in the day.  We took in Vancouver’s annual Pride Parade with a few hundred thousand of our friends who also lined the streets for this bright, colourful and fun-filled event.  It has become quite the family affair and an event proudly supported by many people, businesses and political parties.  We enjoyed the parade and the people, families included who dressed up for the occasion, the costumes, make-up and colours were bright and proudly worn by all.

Thank You Spirit.

Spirit Is and today’s visiting Tarot Card is “II The Intuitive: To be true to oneself, one must know oneself.  Looking within for answers.  Meditation. Intuition.  Exploring that which is normally hidden.”

My Spiritual side surfaced last night as when I briefly awoke in the middle of the night, Spirits were all around the room.  I was very comforted by this and quickly fell back to sleep.  Thoughts of being still and quiet today fill my mind and today’s card, the Intuitive re-enforces how I feel about the day.  I need to be still, I need to be as quiet as possible and in doing so I will take some of the biggest actions toward realizing my dreams and goals, of seizing the opportunities that have come my way.

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.

XIV Temperance

Happy Last Day of January 2013.  A month into the new year already.  Had a so-so day yesterday.  I managed to study a little bit and took a quick walk around the block otherwise I spent the day indoors.  I’m a bit of a state of confusion about my life these days.  I thought I had decisions made but then new thoughts have popped up that make me question what I want to bring with me on my journey of life going forward.

I get a sense that a few things in my life are holding me back and this is what is causing doubt in my mind.  I get a good sense that my RV figures prominently in the direction I’m going however the idea of bringing along my handcrafted card supplies so I can make cards along the way is what came up in mind as the question “Do I really want to do this?

This question then brought me into our den where I spent time looking at my side and what it would be like if I go rid of all of my card making supplies and how clean and fresh my side would look like.  I like making cards and all but the supplies needed to make my beautiful cards take up a lot of space and would weigh down my RV and rob me of the very little space I have to use in my tiny RV.  So with that being said, I think I’ve come up with a plan.  I’ll venture out in my RV with my beads, masks, and spool-knitting, light and easy to store, and they all will take up very little space.  Problem solved.  Card making will stay at home for now.

Thank You Spirit.

Today’s visiting Tarot Card is a repeat visitor from Tuesday, “XIV Temperance: Mix things up a little.  Combining separate elements to create something new.  Moderation (not too much of each flavour).  Flexibility.”  If I’m right about this, I think I kind of got the message now.  Exercise, eating right, Spirituality, Part time travel, Part time work, Part time play, and control over my life.  All of this can be a part of my life if I simply listen to my higher self and this is what I intend to do each and every day moving forward, close my mouth, turn off my mind and listen. . .

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.

2 of Swords

We had an enjoyable day yesterday as we headed downtown on transit in a fog so thick that it seemed to cut us off from the rest of the world.  We walked along Vancouver’s False Creek for a spell before heading into the downtown core, more specifically, the Westend so we could have lunch.  We ate at what is our frequent place for lunch, the Fountainhead Pub.  After lunch we just walked around downtown enjoying the day.

I slept quite well last night despite my dream(s).  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".  The Collins gem book write up on this card suggests finding equilibrium or compromise between two opposing forces such as between heart and mind or inner and outer.  I’m perplexed by this card.  Maybe the message is clear and to be taken quite literally in the sense that I need to close my eyes and meditate as well as to open them to reality, reality that is staring me in the face yet I force myself not to see it.  I think what it is, is that I need to find compromise between the life I’m living and the life I want t live.  I think I just gained some great understanding of this in the last few seconds.  I can have the life I want but to get it I must finish or bring to completion, bring it to a satisfying end before and in order for me to move on with or to write my own future.

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.

Perspective

I slept fairly well however I awoke around 4am again to go pee then the alarm sounded far to early at 6:30am.  I stayed in bed hoping to be sleepy enough to fall back to a doze but it didn’t happen so I got out of bed around 6:40.

Spirit is and today’s visiting 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".  I think I am refusing to act in some areas of my life and this is slowly but surely changing.  I’m learning much more in the last few weeks than I’ve probably learned in years.  I’m discovering myself and who I am and what I want and desire out of life.  True wants and desires because of my discovery of myself.  I’m fascinated by what I am learning about me and who I am and what and how other people see me.  This is an amazing experience and is only going to get better. 

I was fearful at first as sometimes the darkness we fear is real however in my case they were only mere shadows and nothing to traumatic or devastating.  Learning about ourselves should be something we all endeavor to do as it is not only eye opening but life changing since we learn things about ourselves that maybe make us change directions or turn around and head back in the direction we came from.

Amazing!

Thank You Spirit.

Blessed Be.

Meditation Gives Me a Moment in Time in my Future

Yesterday I woke up before the alarm and decided to get out of bed to start my day.  I did my crunches and leg raises, washed up and made some espresso.  As I waited for my partner to wake and join me for breakfast I spent my free time meditating and thinking about my future and my thoughts cleared and in a moment of clarity I lived for ever a brief moment in my very own future.  This brief glimpse of my future provided me much clarity and decisiveness on how I will be moving into and living in my RV on a full-time basis while driving the highways and bi-ways of North America.  This brief moment in time has given me the ability and the joy that goes along with it to appreciate and live in the here and now and how grand it is to be here and to be alive to experience it.

Experiencing and knowing the "now" has been so elusive that I had pretty much given up on it but my doubts were all for nothing because "now" is here and I am experiencing it.  Each and everyone of us has the ability and mindset to live in the moment and appreciate and be filled with "now" living so do not despair it can and will happen to you if you desire it.  Allow yourself to live today, to live in the moment and your life will be brighter and all the better for it.

No this does not mean life will be easy but life is definitely better and and the world a brighter and happier place for us to be living in.  What changed though is us, is you and me and what a difference it makes to each of us as individuals as well as to each other and those around us.

Live now and tomorrow will come and take care of itself, you will see. . .
