I am noticing…that we are all asked to keep it simple. Bare it down to what is important and what really matters. This comes in different ways like when we spared down to a smaller yet cozier home. Or when we are asked to drop things work-wise and focus in on new things or redevelop old things. When we pare down we notice what feels good, who we want to spend time with, and what are hearts really want. This isn’t always easy, of course. I am the first to hold on to the old for dear life until I am kicking and screaming (I am so getting better with this!) How do we know what to keep? Whatever has the most energy for you, is like a signpost, “Go this way.” That’s what I’ve noticed. How about you?

We are all energy-I get it!
I am one of those folks who believe it when I see it, or in this case, feel it. I suppose that is why I have in the last few years seen quite a few miraculous things. The other night, I was wide open, traveling in meditation, and had the amazing discovery that we are all energy or vibrations like stations on a radio. Okay, now we all know this. We’ve read it, heard it. But it was the first time I really felt it–it was exaggerated.
Sarah, our teagle beagle, jumped on the bed with her morning nervous energy. I felt her static, hyper energy, that to me felt physically very uncomfortable. I winced. I felt it on my own body as nervousness, that jumpy feeling. Then Emma Lou jumped on the bed, and her energy or radio station felt like it was set to “calm” or “elevator music.” Her energy was flowing and felt gentle and soft. Very comfortable to me. I realized on the microscopic feeling level, that is why some folks resonate with us and some don’t, although we are not consciously aware of it.
The other night I watched my classmates’ video creations in the DVD class. Our assignment was to edit film clips to accompany a piece of music of our choosing. Several of the movies were hard for me to watch. There was flashing, hard images and loud, jarring music. My eyes felt assaulted. Some folks’ energy is like this to me, only because my energy is different, although I do have days when my energy is like Sarah’s morning energy, and I suppose to Emma Lou, I am very jarring. Those days Emma doesn’t dig the music I am playing.
Spirit leads and tribal belief
I haven’t posted in my art blog. I haven’t wanted to as much. But I wrote a more “aware” post over there regarding a great book by Sonia Choquette and an exercise in following your spirit here.
I am amazed how much my body talks! After getting over the cough and throat clearing, my daughter came home with the cough the other day. Now I’m sneezing. Maybe it’s allergies, which is possible, except when I checked in I learned I was still clearing! Man, is it done yet???? I mean, I know we are growing to a new vibration, etc. etc., but I want to feel better! I felt all this, then I went to sleep. I had an amazing dream. I was with my Mom in my childhood house (hmm, childhood), and a man came to the door wanting us to vote on a poll. He had a flashing sign (there’s your sign), it said, TRIBAL BELIEFS or MAGIC.
I scanned the net for info on TRIBAL BELIEFS and read about relating to root chakra, etc. And then I read an article from a book on a man who was dying rather than rest and take care of himself. He was working himself to death for the sake of his family. Well, something in that resonate because I began to have a coughing fit. I kept coughing and dripping and I was like, Okay, I get it! I’ve been learning–slowly–how to balance taking care of myself with taking care of others/giving. I am trying to stop justifying my overconcern with working and putting out too much. My Guides just call it “striving.” I think it’s alot of stuff I adopted from my Mom, who was very accomplished, but overly concerned with acchievement. Her back would be hurting, she’d feel sick, but darnit, she’d still go to work and bring work home.
The magic part…I am witnessing a different way to do everything. What we all know is the gift of manifesting, allowing, trusting, etc. All the stuff we’ve been taught lately. But I’ve had a hard time letting go of the old way and embrace the new way. (Ha ha, much like the country!) There’s that fear, the what if’s. And that fear has been strong. I guess it is all a process.
Take Your Time
After obsessing, pushing, trying and forcing today, I jumped into my car to hear the following words:
Throat chakras and the new you
The full moon and the eclipse are pushing out the last bits of the stuff we don’t need regarding expression. Unfortunately, this has been a huge area of healing for me which would explain the big clearing necessary. I’ve had more dreams about helping people heal their throats in the past 2 weeks!
So, what happens once everything is clearer and brighter and we’ve gotten rid of ton of poo? Probably what I am beginning to experience. A bit of an identity crisis! Who am I now? If all that I was was wrapped up in all these false beliefs, now what? Perhaps now I can rethink my world and my path. Go back to the essence of what I loved to do or who I am.
- I am going to buy some blue hair dye possibly, maybe even pink. I want some streaks in my hair.
- I want more community support, that seems a bit lacking (except for my blog friends. I love you guys!)
- I need much more dog kisses in my life after all, Dog is GOD spelled backwards.
- More steady flow of abundance. I get big bursts than low calms.
- Less work, more play. That’s a big one. I am such a workaholic.
- A lot less effort in life. It shouldn’t be this much work to get what you need.
- More color.
- Less complaints.
- And finally, no more trying so hard, no more proving myself. It’s all good now. Anyone know where to get some quality blue hair dye?
It’s been crazy…lost dogs and others
I am amazed at this week’s happenings.
Bruiser the dog’s Mom emailed me that he had ran off again in another city. He gets spooked easily and they had been travelling to many new towns for her work on her books. I’ve been exhausted lately with Foxy’s illness and now recovery, our beagle friend showing up and then leaving, so I wasn’t sure if I had the energy to help. I checked in and felt Bruiser’s confusion and fear, and only a few words. So, I did what I do before I teach a class, I ask my Guides and Angels to assist and guide me to teach and say the right things, after all, they are the experts. As soon as I did, the message I received was crystal clear and of a different nature. I was expecting directions to where he was, which he gave some landmarks, but instead, he delivered a personal message to Lorraine. Check out the story here.
Right along the same lines, during a meditation last week while our beagle friend was visiting, a vision of a golden retriever named Sally* stopped in with a message. She let me know this beagle was not Lilibeth, but a higher spirit who had come in to spread joy in the family after we were all exhausted and upset from Foxy’s illness and almost passing. Imagine my surprise when a client called several days later for an after-death session with a dog who looked exactly like the spirit who visited. The client’s nickname was Sally*! My dog client was actually a boy who used that name so Mom would know he visited and was aware of the reading. Many times animals do check me out first before a reading, and arrange the readings, and here was proof.
These incidents reminded me of how much everything is arranged behind the scenes–we only need to flow with it all, show up and do what we do. Amazing.
Miracles
Just today ask for a miracle.
Foxy the wonderdog
We took Foxy today to get her little time release liquids thingy in her arm redone (yes, technical terms). I am learning so much from this experience about trusting your guidance and your gut. As soon as she woke she was very shakey but starving. She ate a full portion of dog food with such gusto. Not a normal thing for a dog who is very picky about food and doesn’t ever appear hungry! She insisted on using her dog door to go out yesterday, but that didn’t work out that well. And stood up all day in the vet’s to prove a point! This is one feisty being! She’s still weak, but it’s a massive improvement.
When we had gotten the phone message to come visit her for the last time the other day, my good friend Pamela heard loudly, “Don’t let her do a thing today and saw Tinkerbell.” When we got there, I was so upset to see a very ill Foxy, but I could hear her clearly say, “Get me out of here now.” Everything I saw was conflicting with my very strong empathic feelings that this was wrong. These were not wishful feelings but a clear message! The vet was going on and on about how I could read Foxy poetry as she crossed, and how she probably wants to die at home, and Foxy was getting so angry! She told me to listen carefully and said, “I am not leaving you. I am right by your side. Just get me out of here.” Both Pamela and I let out big laughs when we both heard her express her anger over being put in the grave too early! Her spirit was so strong. She had no intention of leaving, she said. Now before when she was becoming ill, I had such mixed messages from dreams, from Guides, even from her. But these feelings and messages were strong.
We took her home and I was so anxious, tired and drained. I gave her a ton of Reiki. I prayed. I checked in with her angels. I saw a ton of fairy lights blink in and out. But then she ate robustly from a spoon–we all were shocked. She insisted on walking around and moving too! This was not a soul that was ready to leave. I told the vet and she just replied, “Oh, well she might be eating because she will need lots of energy to cross.” This same vet said she talked to Foxy through animal communication and Foxy had clearly said she wanted to leave. (She meant, go home to us, because she really hated the energy there).
I am glad I listened. Really listened. She seems a great deal better than from her healing crisis and everyday a little better. We need to be patient. I think she is showing that vet a thing or two, AND teaching me to trust much more than what I see. And today I got some more info on Pamela’s Tinkerbell vision. When Tinkerbell is dying, everyone she knows is asked to clap their hands and say, I do believe in fairies! It’s their belief that creates the miracle. Pam said she found a poster in her room with Tinkerbell that says, “”Wishes Do Come True.”
—————————————————————
author note: Foxy lived another 7 months and only 2 of those ill. I am glad we listened to guidance to have that additional time.
Important Lesson
“Facts get in the way from seeing and creating miracles.”
Radio!
I was just interviewed by Mrs. Claus on the Family Yak channel– an inspirational and spiritual (but not religious) podcast online radio show in Australia. It was wonderful. Will find out soon the url to send everyone too. I was able to talk about everything I teach–animal communication, working with the Fairies, my Fairy School, helping the Sensitives. So exciting! The funny thing was my ear was ringing most of the time. Lots of helpers assisting me with the interview, I’d say. 🙂
