Pisces Lune

The Pisces Moon treated me right his weekend, with a surprise party for Ram-Beau which was just swell, Great food, amazing venue, fun people and kids with a football who played with other kids and no fighting. Just grand!

Then a quiet day spent walking, lunch tidy house, clean car and finishing my book, link here, which I adored BTW, Please consider this book if you are even mildly interested in spirituality.

I have rounded off the day with cooking a tea cake and a casserole for dinner, perfect autumnal fare.

Interestingly I have had many restorative Piscean Dreams about a few issues I have been working on, with my subconscious telling me I am making progress in the non-local field, I just have to wait till I bring it into my local field and everyday life. Gotta have something to look forward to!

Eat, pray, love!

Ladybirds everywhere

These are my new lights around my pin board in my study at home. I found them for half price at a toy shop that was closing down. They amuse me and that counts for something.
Ladybirds are the symbol of motherhood, fertility and the earth. Lovely little things! I used to love finding them as a child, always a promise of better things, like sunny days and mushroom rings.
Having them above me as I work, reminds me of believing in better things and that I can make them happen, well most things, sunny days and mushroom rings are beyond my skills at the moment.

I am working on it though.

Rock on!

Lovely shot of Uluru as I went on the Lira Walk, through the bushlands.
The light in this shot makes me think of The Sixth Sense when Toni Collette's character realises there are spirits in all the photos because of the light streaming in next to her son.

I like to think of this light in the photo as the spirits blowing in the strong winds across the land.

I did have many astral dreams in the Dreamtime country. Babies waiting patiently in the astral came and spoke to me about their parents and the future, a few long dead friends visited and we ate and talked and hugged. The Goddess Bookkeeper came and walked with me in my dreams on red tracks and I thought about Blessed Seraph a lot, wishing she were with me to muse about my thoughts on why we come to worship with our cameras at this ancient pebble.
Souls connected in one heartbeat.

I realise the rock is sacred as it is older than time immemorial and the thought that once there was a mountain range and this is all that is left, serves to remind us about what matters whilst we are here.

I was priviledged to sit under the skies in the middle of the desert and an astronomer and myth teller spoke for an hour about the stars and their meaning. He taught me about the the star Sirius and the Dogon tribe of Africa who knew of white dwarf star that circles it, invisible to the naked eye. How did they know about this star when scientists did not discover it till the 1950's?

He discussed Fish Gods painted on walls of Egyptian pyramids and navigation by the stars and so many theories and ideas that for a brief moment it all made sense and I was at once humbled and at peace.

I looked through the telescope at the rings around Saturn and thanked the the Fish Gods and the White Dwarf and whoever else was responsible for allowing me to have the experience.

I come back surer of my feelings that life is all part of a vast unchanging network of relationships, we connect over and over again in the dreamtime and the present and that I know you and you know me and all together we are knowledge.

I see abundance

Housework done, breakfast in changelings tummies, tracksuits donned and we are off.
The school holidays are upon us and I am required to think of things to do with the children that requires little or no money and expends energy.
Today was a walk or a scoot in their case. We walked and scootered to my favorite shop for a wander and a coffee.

Taking our time, I saw abundance everywhere. Fat dahlias staked in the garden, bees buzzing around wall flowers. A ginger cat on a blue stone wall with a silver birch for shade looking down in disdain as the children flashed by in a blur of noise and colour.
I pottered in the shop and looked at everything whilst I chatted with the gorgeous Qi who is the owner and ultimate Piscean.

On the way back the sun shone and the wind was refreshing and people smiled when we passed them in the street. Our arrival home was met with Gandalf who had crept away from work to bring us all lunch.
Moments of abundance and joy, reminding me that life just gets better and better when your take the time to look.

Moon on the rise

Full Moon in Libra, coming in to rest 3.15 am.

Libran Moons are best to use for asking for balance, assistance in matters before a court and anything justice related. Be mindful that the Sun is in Aries and the Moon in Libra.

As Lisa Dale writes:" The Libran Moon reflects the light of Arian individuality and uses it as the fuel for greater understanding of others. Know thyself and the true nature of all things will be revealed."

The Libran Moon encourages you to build bridges and make amends somewhere. Celebrate togetherness and listen to those around you, they maybe trying to tell you something important.

Never get sick of this site

The world is a beautiful place!

And so it goes.....

Conversations with The Good Doctor made me think about how big we want to get as a company. As the beast of business gets bigger so do the hours and responsibility, the staff issues, the overheads. I wonder when enough is enough.

So, I make this statement: that where I am right now is enough.
I will focus on getting right what I have now instead of always scrambling onto the next precipice without stopping and looking at the view.

Take a moment to look at the view, take a moment to relax in this Void Moon and wait.


I am all about the waiting today. Don't push, just be where I am. Be here now.

Fish Girl Lives!

I finally met Fish Girl on Friday, a regular reader and commenter on the blog.
What a blast we had!
A 3 hour lunch and then a trip to one of my fave shops to potter and chat. We compared books we had read and offered each other new ideas and thoughts on familiar subjects dear to our hearts. When we departed I knew that somehow my life had changed. I look forward to seeing how that comes about. Life is exciting and I am better for meeting the Fish Girl.

Magic Follows Me Everywhere

I opened my affirmation book this morning and this phrase, 'Magic Follows Me Everywhere' jumped out at me, daring me to carry it with me today.

How true that affirmation is. I have come into work and spent the first 30 minutes discussing the concept of magic and its symbolism for a new client project. And so it begins.....

Magic is an interesting idea.
The best definition of Magic comes from the French scholar, Christian Jacq, who made a study of Egyptian Magic. He says: " This magic can perhaps be defined as the essential energy which circulates in the Universe of the Gods, as well as in that of humans."

To live with magic in my life or the idea that I can bend things to go my way is the stuff that sustains me, why can't things be different, when you dare to dream then anything can happen.

Magic Follows Me Everywhere!

Happy New Year [nearly]

Last day of the astrological calendar today and man, I am tired! Head into a new astro year tomorrow.
Tension is up to about 11 on the dial at work, you could cut the air with a knife and then stab yourself in the eye with aforementioned implement.
I have a proposal to write which is swell, I plan on shutting my door, lighting my lemon candle and staying away from the 'drama'. I suggest you do the same my friends.

Word of the day is....

I just got called numinous.
Not feeling overjoyed about that somehow.

It's all on!

A New Moon Solar Eclipse occurs today in the last sign of the zodiac, Pisces, at 1:43 PM. New beginnings regarding our faith and beliefs, accepting imperfections in ourselves and in others as a different kind of "perfection", selfless service, and imagination and visualization skills are in order. Venus semi-squares Uranus today, prompting unusual attractions (to people and things) that can have us acting on a whim. We may deal with freedom versus closeness issues in our relationships. Mercury enters Pisces this afternoon, and our thinking processes become more visual, intuitive, and imaginative. We are more attuned to the world of emotion, and it colors both our thoughts and our communication style. We guess well, express ourselves with imagery, and make decisions intuitively.

Thanks to the friends at Cafe Astrology for the heads up!

Mystic Medusa quotes the über Capricorn Kate Moss as saying: "It's a sin to be tired."

Yes, I agree on the Goatyness of this comment but I think it has more to do with the gold dust that she favors when recording Divinyls songs, with the morality tale that is her boyfriend, Pete Doherty.

Kate Moss is never tired, because why people?.......


Pete is a Pisces BTW, birthday 3 days ago. Explains heaps, since the two fish represent the saint and the sinner, one way or the other for the Pisceans. If he directed his attachment to being in the non local state into meditation or yoga then he could still feel whacked out without the need to get there synthetically.

Look at me with all the big ideas huh? I speak from experience though, I understand the crazy drug connection but this blog gets me into the non local state without having to chop up a line.

No judgement , no praise, just my musings on a Thursday afternoon.

FYI

Doctors at the Mayo Clinic in the US are recommending that they take a persons spiritual history as well as their physical as it is shown that those with a sense of faith, any faith from Wiccan to Amish have more chance of overcoming their illness. See here.

Gorillas in the Mist

I had crazy dreams last night about Gorillas in towers of houses of people who are very successful and then I went to visit the towers and was given my own baby gorilla to feed and nurture. Gorillas represent instinct. Perhaps my baby instinct needs nurturing and caring for and then it will help me become my beast to succeed with.

Whatever. It was cute though, little monkey face.

Go, Go, Go Mercury!

Mercury started to wind itself forward today after a few weeks lazing and sunning itself by he Sea of Tranquility. Perfect.
I am feeling the vibes and happy to be at work.It is truly a lovely place to work at the moment.

Ewww!

Brain ache as work is plowing in and stopping me from playing on the project with heart at the moment, but still its always lovely to have work and possibilities.
Gotta make 30 cupcakes for Pisces Son's class as he is the birthday boy this week then the super duper fudge cake tomorrow night, so more later.

Spooky

This pre-eclipse vibe is whack man!
I had had a light bulb smash over me today and just moments ago had a picture fall on me and the glass smash everywhere.

There were issues with the boomgate and the parking ticket machine at the Jam Factory when I went there today and I huffed and puffed and generally play Martyr as I showed peeps how to use the machine, since Mercury Retrograde was messing so badly with the technology.

I have heard this is the worst Merc Retro in a long while. I can attest to that since we have had a major tech system breakdown at work for the past month. Shit City, but all will ease up tomorrow with the eclipse and the Full Moon in Pisces and later into the week when Mercury goes forward on the 8th. I like the symbolism of it all, the new light from the eclipse as the communication moves forward.

I am now going to put on my daughters stackhat till the eclipse happens.
Later!

I invite you to share.

The Invitation
by Oriah Mountain Dreamer

It doesn’t interest me what you do for a living...
I want to know what you ache for and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart’s longing.

It doesn’t interest me how old you are...
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love, for your dream, for the adventure of being alive.

It doesn’t interest me what planets are squaring your moon...
I want to know if you have touched the centre of your own sorrow, if you have been opened by life’s betrayals, or have become shrivelled and closed from fear of further pain. I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own, without moving to hide it, or fade it, or fix it. I want to know if you can be with joy, mine or your own, if you can dance with wildness and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes without cautioning us to be careful, be realistic, remember the limitations of being human.

It doesn’t interest me if the story you are telling me is true...
I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself. If you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul. If you can be faithless and therefore trustworthy. I want to know if you can see Beauty even when it is not pretty every day. And if you can source your own life from its presence. I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine, and still stand at the edge of the lake and shout to the silver of the full moon, “Yes.”

It doesn’t interest me to know where you live or how much money you have...
I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair weary and bruised to the bone and do what needs to be done to feed the children.

It doesn’t interest me who you know or how you came to be here...
I want to know if you will stand in the centre of the fire with me and not shrink back.

It doesn’t interest me where or what or with whom you have studied...
I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away. I want to know if you can be alone with yourself and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.
