Imaginings of a crazy lady!

I am off to see Deepak this weekend. I am very excited, I have mentioned in a previous posting my asking the Universe when he would come to Australia and then 10 minutes later finding out he was coming in less than 6 weeks!
Since the psychic spell casting with the Sibyls last month, I have noticed an marked increase in my intuition or psychic ability. Really, its been amazing, from the ridiculous to the inspired. Maybe my spell casting just cemented my intention to listen to my gut more and trust it, I am not sure, maybe the damm magic just worked.
As an avid reader of all things business related, I often notice the amount of times well known business people advise to trust your instinct or intuition. Its a thing that you either have or have to learn, I am in the latter category and it is early days but I hope that as I trust it more my ability will also grow. I trust you will have a great weekend!

Blame it on the stars!

Are your big plans being headed off at the pass ? Blame it on the Mercury-Jupiter quincunx. this apparently means that planning will not go quite as expected and important details can be overlooked.
Also the The Balsamic Moon phase today makes it less than ideal to push forward with new projects. Tomorrow's New Moon in Taurus will be a just the kicker you need! Everything happens for a reason, so let go and know you are taken care of!

MOMENTS INDEED!

Today I wanted to discuss moments, I googled the word in images and this came up, lovely! This was voted The Worst Bookcover of 2002! Its part of the new racy Mills and Boon range. Hilarious!

Back to moments of a different sort.....

Had a session with Domonique the Wonderful today whose asked me to review all the learnings that Gandalf and I have had in the last 8 weeks. I haven't done this as yet, too busy being important [!] but it did make me think about the importance of taking a moment to look at the view as you climb the mountain.
Brave Lioness and I often talk about "moments", these feature quite highly in our day, not the type as illustrated above. I had a whole thing planned for blogging about moments but the bookcover has thrown me, yet I know I need to share this with you.

Ah well, another golden moment from Dream weaver.

Where have you been?

So, Tuesday was a write off, so should have stayed in bed all day, but today is another chance to forgive myself for being a stress ball and move forward in a positve day.
Did a massive planning session last night for all the things I wish to achieve today and I feel much better about my day. Hired a new staff member today, she seems good, no signs either way so I will suck it and see.
Moon in Aries today which makes us feel like we want to start afresh, New Moon in Taurus tomorrow, you may find yourself enthusiastic, spontaneous and with masses of new found energy.

What do you reckon?

The lack of posting tells you what sort of a day I have had!

Manic Monday

Having a valued staff member away for 5 weeks during a busy time has meant that I have to be prepared for anything. I will write a list tonight to ensure clarity when I hit the deck tomorrow. All the horrorscopes I have read over the weekend tell me that to prioritise my list and only do what needs to be done and not to freak out about things that can wait. Wise words.
I will pull a rune in the morning and see what advice that gives me as well.

Secret Rune

So the Rune did reveal a secret that I had long since pushed to the back of my past. Whats that I hear you say?

Not going to tell, its my secret remember!

Perdido

Pulled a Rune, got the rune of Occult, Mystsery and Secrets. Dunno what that means, stay tuned

Meanwhile, dreamt I was choosing prefects for work, what does that mean? I had an assessment system in my sleep that made sense to me. I am having more lucid and memorable dreams since I have been doing my course which is terrific.

Out with Blessed and Gandalf tonight, lovely!

Good times!

Ripper of a day, hired a new staff member, I asked for a sign from above as to if she was the one and she thrilled me no end when she showed an uncanny resemblances and similarities to the Sylph Libran, who is much adored and valued.
I also managed to get two things of my list that have been annoying me no end, insufferable tasks that I have conquered!

So what has happend to action this change in mood?

• It could be the Sun in Taurus, as a Taurus I am an Active Member of Sensa*, so I know about these things to these things. Found this quote about this time:
"It's actually a good time to magnetize things (and people!) we want in our lives. Our powers of attraction are strong, and a hopeful, trusting, and positive attitude is what takes us places."

• Or is it the Mars in South Node in Libra, which is encouraging us to live by the Serenity
Prayer. Thus, I am letting go, I had the first great dream last night in a LONG time, about a relationship that has been troubling me and how to best to ease up and let it happen.

• Or is it the orange oil I had in the diffuser which I burnt in my office today? Orange is refreshing and uplifting.

* Sensa is similar Mensa but for the psychically gifted not academically gifted.
Anyone can join, we meet once a month on the Astral Plane. See you out there!

Shine

In my discussion with Bohemian Piscean workmate today we discussed the responsibility she has to vibrate at her highest level she can help those around her who may not have the same opportunities as her. I understand this more than most. I used to feel guilty that I had so much but now I see that I have to keep at this level and then keep moving up so I can keep helping where I can.
It takes great courage to be great.
Let your light shine!

Thanks Mystic!

From Me:

"Still blogging on in Spiritual Biz Thanks for all your support! I link to you heaps, loving your site. Meanwhile a question which maybe really dumb, but can a non human entity have a star sign. I think I would like to see if my business's journey and the stars correlate at all. Am I as stupid as I feel as I write this question? I look forward to your kind response.
Dream weaver."

From Mystic:

Dear Dream weaver,
This is not at all a dumb question...Yes, entities such as a business have their chart. Everything that happens can have a chart. eg; Iran has a chart - Eric Francis points out that it's got a lot going on in the 8th house. The first time that you meet someone has a chart - interesting to watch that one. The time you incorporate your business or post your first blog has a chart. You can join two charts together to create a composite chart - the chart of your relationship...

Have downloaded the charts of business and blog and will spend some time looking over when the chance shows itself. Good stuff huh?

If not now then when

I have had to come home with a sick child, just as well, the morning was not at all successful. Did have a helpful conversation with Bohemian Piscean regarding her work with Domonique the Wonderful but other than that no highlights, even midlights.
Had to put out a fire at work and then by the time I had my list together of everything I had I wanted to do I had to leave!
I am going with the flow and thinking that everything happens for a reason and I have been blessed in some small way that I cannot see at this point but will soon be made apparent to me!

Just servicing the broom

So today I am taking in some Wicca to work. I have a list of things to incorporate, I am quite looking forward to it. Will blog later about outcomes, takes 3 moons until the changes appear.

The Moon is waning in Capricorn so apparently the key is to think like a Cap, get focused and think work.
I also have new shirt to wear, helps with the role I will play, I am a fabulous Capricornian business owner with a new shirt, creating opportunities and ruling with a fair and kind hand. I think I will name myself, " Claudia". Sounds like a Capricorn name.
Highlights of the Capricorn nature: practical and prudent, ambitious and disciplined, patient and careful, humorous and reserved. Hmm, Caps and Taureans have some differences, gonna have to bring out the method acting today. I think the shirt will help.

Excellent theory Mr Watson but......

Ah ha, whose having a weird day? Hands up!
There is some Trine thingo with Mercury Mars, with a dash of Venus aligning with Uranus, which spells..... TROUBLE!

"Mental unrest and agitation" [MUA] is the order of the day according to Cafe Astrology.

Can I give a big shout out to my MUA? Gandalf 's feeling it too, but the poor bugger had to go and fake it till he nearly didn't make it at work.

At least he will come home to a clean house since my MUA has manifested in a house sprucing like no other!

Mutable Waters

I am feeling the full Moon in Pisces thing today, thus have had to get Gandalf home whilst I try and swim upstream in cold water.

• High point should be visiting friends new baby, who was born on my Divine Piscean Sons birthday.
  
• Low point: The panic attack in the stupermarket. Dunno why, they have that effect anyway, but todays was in full flight!
  

Hmmm, my Piscean Moon has released the obsessive complusive cleaner inside me.
She is a be-atch!

Blessed Friends

I have had a moment today when I realised that people who take risks or move outside the norm and live inspired lives are usually drawn and quartered for it, not actually in this somewhat more civilised day and age, but at the very least, gossiped about behind their backs at dinner parties.
Gandalf and I have always done our "own thing". We have never fitted into the box ticking society that we live in and as I have moved towards more eccentricities/authenticities [I don't want to label them], I have noticed that those whose companionship I seek and cherish also choose to live with their freak flag blowin' in the breeze.
In saying that, tonight I am off to the Astral Travel and Dream Course with my dear friend, the Blessed Seraph. We have known each other for 21 years, the longer our thread is weaved together the stronger it becomes. I have lost friends when I made changes in my life: weight, money, spoke my truth. I never lost Blessed, she has chanted my name and cheered me with gusto, cried with me and laughed at me. Aristotle said, "What is a friend? A single soul dwelling in two bodies. "
At times we are like a single soul. She is a Scorpio, myself a Taurus, the opposite signs of each other, this constitutes a complex yet deep connection, we are each others ying and yang. We drive each other nuts and love each other like no other. When I asked her if she wanted to come with to the Astral Travel/Dream course, she didn't bat an eyelid, her weird-o-meter didn't even flicker. It takes a lot to freak out a Scorpio, I probably had a more of a chance of ruffling her feathers if I had claimed to have invented the blow job. "Not a chance," I would hear her say, "That had to be a Scorpio!"

Diary of an Oestre Egg

• I love the riffing between Wayne & Deepak CD on their rocking CD during the trip to Nirvana.
  
• Fairy tales for adults are not just for children. [See: Alice Hoffman. Ms Hoffman weaves tales of witches and ghosts and selfish hippies and white blackbirds. I LOVED it! Maybe it was because I was in an actual physical space that reflected what I was reading about: foggy mornings, pink skies and mountains. ]
  
• Red shoes are not just for Dorothy as stated by Carson on QEFTSG. Many of the Sibyls in Ms Hoffmans book wear red shoes. I am gonna get myself a pair tomorrow!
  
• There is a place for Wicca and Business as written about in A Witch in the Boardroom.
• Faith is so last season, Knowing is the new black.

Thursday night thoughts

Thinking of getting a motivational T Shirt stating- "I'm so great I'm jealous of myself" but reality tells me to get this one printed "I Have the Body of a God. Unfortunately the God Is Buddha".

Happy Easter !

Things to ponder

The Bookkeeper Goddess with a new set of shiny wheels and I had a ponderous discussion today.
Its goes a little like this: Does having the belief that things are going to be alright actually make them fall into place a little easier. Does having an open heart and a positive attitude make you an easier target for good things to come your way. Does the universe have a brain? Does it deliver what you think, if you think things are going to shit, then do they? And the reverse? Things are going to be fine and then they become that. This, of course, must be supported by all the mundane work that goes with being a human, but being a spiritual being we seem to be best served by staying focused on abundance, peace and love.
As usual after spending a day with her, I felt blessed, blessed and balanced.

Living in Scare City

Accountable accountancy is what I have been working on for several months. I am not at all expressing that I am a financial wizard, I am not but the more I put my head into the sand about my finances the more scared I became and the more stressed I was. This stress manifested itself through my body, my creative expression and my choices. I would do what is termed " Moscow Shopping." I would buy lots of things in case there was ever going to be a shortage, as if I couldn't rely on the shops or my money that was coming to me to ever be there again.
I do a few things now that make me accountable for my choices: I ask for receipts with everything, I educated myself about what I could claim at tax time and every Sunday night I try to sit down and tally my receipts and put it into a dinky accountancy software program I bought for my home computer.
I have also a few abundance affirmations that I repeat to myself when I travel in Scare City as I like to term financial stress.
Why do we have so much debt as individiuals ? Do we think we are not worth investing in?

Celebrate yourself and celebrate that you have enough, you don't need anything. Work out what is a genuine need and what is just desire, desire is ego. What does your ego desire?
What do you need to serve the Universe? If what you are about to purchase supports that intention then spend away my friends, if it is a purchase based on ego that will only hinder you and keep you in a state of keeping up appearances then let it go, chances are you will not ever regret not buying it.

Buy with intention and start saving is my new look this season!

Dream Themes

Soemone asked me about dream involving Celine Dion and could I interpret it for them, I have happy to send them here.
A Forum for Fans Dreaming about Celine Dion.
Was it not enough she helped premature babies by having herself photographed with the wee babes by Anne Geddes but now she helps her fans interpret dreams about herself.
Is there nothing this woman will cannot/will not do?
I aspire!

Hows it going for youse?

Having a low point at work re: workflow, I have faith in the fact that it is quiet for a reason and things will move when they are supposed too. Am I kidding myself ?
Its seems a fine line between having faith and wishing.
Meanwhile, I tried to remember my dreams, I was hoping for an astral travel dream, not to be.
I dreamt about a being in a movie, Sarah Jessica Parker and buying dims sims. I dunno what that all means, I have decided not to interpret my dreams for a while and wait until something profound comes, I figure I will know when it happens, a lot like love, I guess.

Look Mum, no hands!

So I am back from the astral travel and dreaming course, very interesting. So many people there and all seeming to have profound dream experience. I am open to it all and there was nothing in the course that was spooky or with a veiled, cult like threat.
Some nice points for remembering your dreams: try not to move when your first wake up, this leaves the astral body still suspended and you can be in both a physical state and an astral state, try to train yourself to wake 5 minutes before the alarm goes off, this will give you this moment when you can recall the dream and use your intuition to interpret it, what you think it is about when first wake up is about will probably be right on the money.
Wish I had listened to my dream when wildly offering jobs to people willy nilly!

Flight leaving for Never Never Land

Off to an Astral Travel and Dreaming course with Blessed tonight, could be great or we may end up in a cult, marrying each other in a mass wedding in a Korean city square, but I promised myself I would remain open to everything and attached to nothing. So here goes.
Also got the number of an astrologer that Domonique the Wonderful told me about.

Upside- Spiritual opportunities coming out of my nostrils today.
Downside- I have no senior staff and no money!

Rich in Spirit and Higher Consciousness, challenged in the everyday.

Fuck the everyday!


Gotta keep the faith baby!

Serves me right!

So the rune I put back this morning was:

Nauthiz: (N: Need.) Delays, restriction. Resistance leading to strength, innovation, need-fire (self-reliance). Distress, confusion, conflict, and the power of will to overcome them. Endurance, survival, determination. A time to exercise patience. Recognition of one's fate. Major self-initiated change. Face your fears.

So, then I find out this today that the person I had offered the job to has taken another one, this may throw things out a little timing wise but I have to accept that this delay has happened for a reason. I should have taken my dream as a warning when I dreamt about a past staff member who was a literal nightmare after interviewing him.
Trust intuition, is what I need to acknowledge and also trust the runes it seems.

Your argument is flawed counseller

Hmm, I didn't like the rune I pulled out so I pulled out another one, is that right? Not really I know. I am as dissappointed in myself as I know you are in me.
I will work on it.

Runey Tunes

Massive energy shift today. Apparently the Sun forms an exact sextile to Neptune today, which tunes us in to our intuition and to the higher vibrations of the universe.
I felt it shift as I sipped Pinot Gris at Fed Square with Blessed, looking at the Thai festival and catching up with a super old friend and him encouraging me to take up something again I had since long given up hope on. Divine day and I slipped easily into an attitude of gratitude, great friends, vibrant city and and creativity everywhere.

I have branched out so to speak and I purchased a set of lovely rose quartz Runes this afternoon with Blessed at Qi, gorgeous shop.
Runes are interesting, they are symbols or alphabetical signs on talismens such as stones or crystals, even bones and wood. From the Nordic and Germanic times, used between 200 B.C.E andf the late eighth century, enough of a history lesson though.
The lovely thing about Runes is that they reflect symbols commonly found in nature, look around and you can see the symbols in branches of trees, graffitied onto walls, even in this time.
The Runes do not promise to tell the future , they merely offer insight and suggest direction to what is happening in peoples lives, they encourage awareness of certain issues or ways to overcome challenges from stimulating the subconscious.
There is a morning Rune Runetine, [sorry too easy], a Rune Routine, where you pull a single Rune each morning asking the question, "What do I need to know in order to make the right choices today?"

Bring it on!

To the mattresses

So its a Mars/Pluto transit, "so what?" I hear you say. Well, Mars is the God of War and Pluto is the God of the Underworld, together this can mean an intensely aggressive energy spilling from within, almost uncontrollable. I felt this at the supermarket today when I had a nearly fatal run-in with an elderly lady, I repeat elderly, I nearly knocked her out! What is that about, I used to look after elderly people in past life, how did it come to this. Had the horrors with self all day, had to literally get out of town and head to the coast and returned with tail well between the legs. I then find out that the only things for this transit is focused activity, i.e.: yoga, running, martial arts class, granny bashing.

I wonder if Melbourne's Underworld War will feel this Mars/Pluto transit? Seems as good a time as any for organized crime to take each other out, its been a while since the Herald Sun ran any of their pictures on the front page.

I did try to convince Blessed to attend a Well Being market with me tomorrow, there is an open mic between 1-3pm, BYO instruments, but she was not to be moved, even though I promised to make her a special instruments all of her own, a broom handle with bottle tops attached.
No dice, no play!

The tribe has spoken

Hired a new staff member today. Big decisions require absolute Faith.
Did I do the right thing? Will they fit in ? I don't know the answers to these questions but I am sure that it will all work out as its suppossed to.
I had a dream last night about a staff member whose journey with us didn't go according to either her plans or ours and on top of all of that she smelt, not a great combo. Was I dreaming about times when things have gone a bit shit and thus I am concerned within my subconscious?
Dunno, but I swear I could smell her while I was sleeping.

Found them!

My inhouse Merlin found the emails! Bless him and his antennas!
So onwards and upwards.

Having a magic day with Blessed on the weekend, so looking forward to it, what to do though ?

I did receive an lovely email from the Sylph re: change in mood at work and general Mayoress of Goodtimes behaviour! Thats good to know that it made and impact and had a lovely coffee with a friend this morning when we bumped into each other at the local java house, surprising and a fun way to waste 25 minutes.

This day has a theme running through it but I will think more about that later. Any thoughts let me know.

Keep it together, keep it together

Have lost all my emails, cannot even begin to explain how bad this is!
Can't find a good reason!
Will post later when I have come in from the ledge!

Almost bearable.

The change in mood at work did change a few things, mainly my sanity. 'Fake it till you make it', was the mantra today. It worked to a point, I did just get on with it, keeping busy certainly stopped bullshit negative conversations in my head and I did achieve more than I thought I would. Generally a productive day but without true feeling. However I ask, does it always have to be shitful to feel anything ? Is it only when I am in the throws of some stressful situation that I feel present? Something to think about for the future.

I read a great tip a few years ago, can't remember who it was from, but the tip is, when at work, pretend you are on TV, in one of those reality shows like The Apprentice [not that I condone The Donald's TV foray onto the small screen]. This means you are always aware of your behaviors, your words and impacts of both on those around you. Worth trying when you feel like dogshit at work.
Camera 2 baby, smile!

Change in Mood!

Yes, time for a change, the culture drips down from the top in this establishment of business, I have decided to drape the mantle of Mayoress of Good Times across my shoulders and trip out on my own spectacular fortune, even though I arrived to grim news from the Goddess Bookeeper regarding coin.
Where on earth will the money come from?
Wherever it is right now.

Pulled a card from My Power Of Intention deck- the card was- Feel Abundant- Feeling abundant surpasses the money in your bank account and transcends what others may think of you.......and so on... the bit I like the most- detach yourself from from the things you desire and allow them to flow to you not through you.

Ommmmm.

The Worst Day of the Year is Here!

TWDOTYIH! That's short for The Worst Day of the Year is Here!! No really it is. Officially the worst day in a while, things flying of metaphysical shelves, shit hitting metaphysical fans and almost as though there are specters amongst us. Called Blessed on the batphone, she also has had an arsehole of a day too, not that I take any comfort in my loved ones struggling at the moment, when we spoke I said let's not bore each other with the details, unlike what I am going to do here, where I WILL bore you with the details of my shitty day. "Blessed", I said,"Let's take comfort that we are not in isolation in our cliff jumping thoughts."

Is this the deepest darkness before the dawn, the death hour before rebirth?
Saturn moves later tonight and there is a waxing moon tomorrow in Cancer. Illumination and growth are apparently on order during this moon phase. Man, struggling!
"Be Divine!" the calendar tells me, not a chance with this load, despite grace under pressure and all. I am having crazy dreams at the moment but can't remember any of them! Always a sign I am in a state of flux.

Had Goddess crying in my office, not asking for my help, just crying and struggling with the enormity of her responsibility as a Single Goddess Mother who has no one to help to carry the load.

Gandalf spinning out about the future [as his crystal ball in the shop for repairs] and me trying to interview for new staff and feeling nothing but fear and distress about inviting new people onto the island for concern about them turning out to be bad eggs. I asked for a sign in the interview whether he was the right person or not and when I asked what he wanted in salary he said 10k more than he told the recruitment company!

L. Ron Hubbard Almighty, is that the sign?

I hope not.

Ya making a difference yet?

There are days when I wonder what on earth my contribution is doing to free the planet from its restrictive chains. Yes, I know heavy stuff but I do think about it, how can I make a difference, especially those who know what business I am in, I shan't tell the uninitiated for fear that you would never visit and read my musings again, needless to say my industry is spat upon by some in the world.
Hmm, something that I struggle with: is your day job always related to your dharma ?
Does it fulfill your higher purpose or the Universes' higher purpose? This is my struggle, this is what I am doing this for I suppose. Hoping that the answer come at some point.

What do you deserve?

How do you recognise your own potential ? How do you know what you deserve ? How to do celebrate and reward yourself ?
I have had enormous trouble with this throughout my professional career. It's a fine line between knowing your own strengths and just being up yourself .
I have worked with many people in my business who have trouble seeing their own potential, I take pleasure in seeing them open up and becoming better than they used to be at pretty much everything in their lives.
I am better than I used to be at celebrating my achievements but I still forget sometimes. I know that business and the staff deserve the best possible in everything from workspaces, equipment and support, it creates a level of confidence and belief that I hope will eventually be reflected in the attitudes and work of the team.
I am planning an office renovation at the moment, it is expensive, mildly stressful and at times overwhelming. But at what cost is pride in your workspace, great work flow and a dash of Feng Shui worth ?

It is almost impossible to quantify but I celebrate that we are even contemplating this renovation, it means we are serious and after 9 years in business, long overdue.

Ego is a dirty word

My Divine Scorp Daughter calls Ego- Igor. She knows when Igor is speaking and knows that her issues with other little people in the playground often reflect what she dislikes about herself.
A great lesson to learn early I believe. When I have a bad reaction to others I now know that what I see in them I see and hate in myself, the things I have to work on. Most battles are with our own inner demons anyway, choose your battles carefully at the moment.
At the moment Saturn is stationary but moves again tomorrow. This means that it is time to come out of the dark tribe-like consciousness and into Universal Lightworker Consciouness. Let go of the past, forgive old hurts and send love to your destination before you get there. Illuminate and grow is the key here. When I was at arty farty acting school, seems lifetimes ago, a dear teacher used to ask us to come on stage as though we had a light coming from our third eye and from our hearts. The world was in darkness but we had to show the inner light to brighten and inspire the stage. Today I am going to think of the world as my own stage and I will shine from my heart and my third eye.

A question

To Mystic Medusa,

Still blogging on in http://www.spiritualbiz.blogspot.com
Thanks for all your support! I link to you heaps, loving your site. Meanwhile a question which maybe really dumb, but can a non human entity have a star sign. I think I would like to see if my business's journey and the stars correlate at all. Am I as stupid as I feel as I write this question?

I look forward to your kind response.

Dream weaver.

Aloha Big Kahuna !

I had a lovely experience with some hot stones wielded by a Leo/ Virgo cusp Goddess.
It was the most relaxing massage I have ever had, and as a Taurus who is in lust with all things luxurious, I have had a few massages in my day. The heat from the stones warms your body almost immediately, this, combines with excellent massage technique, thrust me into a place that I would almost say was Spiritual.

I released so many things, images from my past came and went, good and bad, I could have slept except I was so into what was playing in my head. Afterwards I felt like I had been in Chelmsford having sleep therapy. I struggled for quite a while till an excellent latte woke me from my walking coma. The stones are blessed by the Big Kahuna, a tradtional Shaman from Hawai'i. Honestly it was amazing. Mystic Medusa says that Taureans are High Functioning Flakes this weekend as the Sun is in my soul sector. Ahem to that my Friends. I have been a Flake today, seeing patterns everywhere and linking past experinces to where I am now.
Sweet madness.
