Saturday, November 14, 2015. A quiet Friday evening made for a great night's sleep and an early morning arising. I first opened my eyes around 4 then again just before 5. I closed my eyes again however sleep did not return so I quietly slipped out of bed around 5:15.
Today's Tarot Energy is the "Queen of Stones, Bear: Richness and plenty surround you. Your bounty and welcoming nature make you popular with all. Many depend on you, and your natural sensuality makes you powerfully attractive to others. Pragmatism and generosity open doorways at every point. Power and generosity, Punctiliousness, A demanding individual, Confidence, Frankness, Assurance, Prosperity."
It's a day to be smart, realistic, and thoughtful. We must strive to think before we speak or act and to be level headed when dealing with others. We must rise above base reactions and allow our natural generosity and kindness to rule the day. We can be demanding without being rude or bossy about it. We do this through leading by example and our giving spirits. Let's be generous with our time and our ears by spending time with someone and listening to and really hearing what they have to say.
Thank You Spirit.
Blessed Be.
Sunday, October 25th, 2015. I kind of had a lazy day yesterday. As was suggested by the "Four of Arrows" I did a whole lot of nothing and simply rested. Although, I did manage to get a few projects started that I need to finish before next Sunday. I hope I can make and see some real progress.
Today's Tarot Energy is the "Queen of Stones, Bear: Richness and plenty surround you. Your bounty and welcoming nature make you popular with all. Many depend on you, and your natural sensuality makes you powerfully attractive to others. Pragmatism and generosity open doorways at every point. Power and generosity, Punctiliousness, A demanding individual, Confidence, Frankness, Assurance, Prosperity."
The key point I'm getting with the "Queen of Stones" Energy is that "Pragmatism and generosity open doorways at every point" with a reminder that pragmatism is "a reasonable and logical way of doing things or of thinking about problems that is based on dealing with specific situations instead of on ideas and theories". (http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/pragmatism)
So lets' look at specifics and be as generous as is reasonable and possible in each of own given circumstances. Generosity does not always have to involve money as it can be time, a smile, food, a helping hand or even as simple as holding the door open for someone.
Hope you all have a great Sunday.
Thank You Spirit.
Blessed Be.
Monday, September 7th, 2015. It's nice to have a long weekend, an extra day to let go, relax, and simple 'BE'. We met my brother at the Red Wagon Cafe for brunch yesterday. We waited for about an hour to be seated as we were party of three and got bumped by parties of two or four or six even though we were on top of list. To me this is not an acceptable practice for the restaurant to take as although the food is good it in our opinion is simply not outstanding nor any better than other restaurants we've been to that seldom if ever have a line-up. The Red Wagon is busy possibly because of its appearance on 'Diner's, Drive-Ins and Dives' and reputation.
Would we go back? Not likely. The food is good however being bumped by a half dozen or more parties that came after us simply because we were a party of three isn't acceptable. But we enjoyed our visit and the food was good and the server was great!
We relaxed a little and then headed out to take in the 'Richmond World Festival' around 4:30pm. We found an empty parking lot next to the park, paid for parking then checked online to se where we had to go...only to discover that the festival was on Saturday...aarrrgggghhhhh! To drown our sorrows by getting the date wrong and missing the festival we took a quick walk around the park, got some Chinese Take-out and headed home.
Around 8:30pm, that's when I looked up at the clock, I was surprised that it was still early as I was contemplating slipping into bed. What to do to while away another hour or so...check out my developing model railroad, read a bit more, look at our camping options online...we're hitting Vancouver Island the first week of October...Nanaimo, Tofino, and Victoria...yay! And then it was off to bed around 10;30pm.
We are staying in Nanaimo at the Living Forest RV Park, in Tofino at the Bella Pacifica Campground, and in Victoria at the Westbay Marine Village. I'm excited and can hardly wait!
Spirit Is and today's visiting Tarot is the "Queen of Stones, Bear: Richness and plenty surround you. Your bounty and welcoming nature make you popular with all. Many depend on you, and your natural sensuality makes you powerfully attractive to others. Pragmatism and generosity open doorways at every point. Power and generosity, Punctiliousness, A demanding individual, Confidence, Frankness, Assurance, Prosperity."
When I simply let myself be and my spirit lead the way I feel more approachable, more welcoming and seem to wear a natural smile on my face and walk with a happy demeanor. I also feel better too! Even lighter and more content in and with all that I do...
...if we let our spirit's lead the way then we leave no room for our egos to take control or get in the way of our natural state of being which is to be filled and overflowing with light and love that will draw people to us so we can lead by example through our generosity and pragmatism where we use our success to help and inspire others to do the same.
Thank You Spirit.
Blessed Be.
