ALLOW & TRUST! GO FORWARD!

Beloved,

What a week, it feels like it has been a month. And…it feels
like we are a month ahead of time regarding the months. Does it
not feel like September? July felt like August with all the
heat waves, did it not? As you can see and feel, there are
changes all over the Earth and with all of humanity.

Actually, this past week for me has been a great relief
from concerns and situations that caused angst. Many questions
have been settled, resolutions have come to pass.

Do you remember my story of how a Great Blue Heron greeted me and
the realtor when I first came to see my home? He had walked
across the beach to stand at the gate which they never do as they
stay at the water’s edge. That was 17 years ago and I KNEW that he
was a sign to me that this would be my new home after losing my
mortgage free home and the IRS chasing me for 5 years. Which by the
way, I have a written letter of apology from the IRS and my money
back with interest. Can you see why I believe in miracles?

I see a Great Blue Heron occasionally but only one as they are
solitary creatures and only join the community during mating
season. This week I looked out and there was a HUGE Heron at the
water’s edge. I have never seen one that big. As I walked slowly,
closer to my bow window for a better look, I spotted two smaller
Herons. They were not in close proximity to one another but in
17 years here, I have never seen more than one at a time. My
Spiritual Number is 3, the Trinity. Here was a sign of something
important but I was not sure what it meant.

I went to the Animal Speak book by Ted Andrews which is a Dictionary
of Animal, Bird, and Reptile Symbolism. I use it every time an
unusual creature shows up as I know they are bringing me a message.
The keynote for the Heron is: Aggressive Self-Determination and
Self-Reliance. The Heron reflects an aggressive movement toward
opportunities that present themselves.

Boy, I could use that as I have been, like you, not sure of my
next step. These energies have been prevalent so most of us have
been kind of in limbo, waiting for we know not what. This happened
on Monday and the next day when I was coming back from Yoga class
in a small town with roads that are wide enough for only two cars,
something incredible happened. There, right in the middle of the
narrow road, stood a Great Blue Heron. I stopped completely
because I could not pass without causing him some harm. I asked
finally: “What message do you have for me?” The reply was: “Go
Forward”.

That was all. He eventually went to the side of the road and I
passed him ever so slowly (they are very skittish creatures???).
Suddenly, he flew across my windshield with his massive wings.
Whew! I was certainly taken aback. What to make of all of this?
I know I have been pondering retiring from being busy with writing
and speaking. I was certainly given a very direct message although
it did not tell me my next step. Allow and Trust are my new mantra.
I do KNOW that this message was for you also. “GO FORWARD”. Look
for opportunities that present themselves.

I did not have time to integrate all that happened when I received
another message, this time from a woman with whom we have a biweekly
conference with others about being ON THE CHRIST PATH. She emailed
me with: I thought I would share something I read recently with you.
It is from a book called Anna, Grandmother of Jesus,which contains
channeled information. Within the book is this line about Jesus:
Mariam, his adopted sister, whom he called Mary Grace,continued to
be his loyal friend and confidante.
It seems Mary Grace is a special name.

I was surprised to know that and asked her what page it was on
because I have that book, it is at the end of chapter 25 for
anyone who may have that book. It was written by Claire Heartsong
who was the Spirit Filled Being who suddenly grabbed my hand as I
passed her at a gathering in Mount Shasta and told me that Mother
Mary would like me to carry her name. Huh? That was a total shock
to me at that time because I had never considered changing my first
name. You know by now that I did answer Mother’s call and now I have
a deeper understanding of why I love Jeshua so much, I can deny him
nothing. There is a much longer story associated with this but I will
tell you another time. Just know that I did read the book 11 years
ago and I do not remember that passage. Another message????

Wow, Wow, Wow! My wish for you is that you have the AHA moments
that I have had just in this very short week. I will have a lot
to contemplate after the Expo is over.

Remember that the Psychic & Beyond Expo is this weekend starting
tonight at 6PM in Manchester, Ct. Saturday and Sunday hours are
11:00am to 6:00pm. More details are in last week’s newsletter. I
hope you can make it. Stop at my booth if you do so I can give you
a hug.

One minute, 42 Seconds – Awesome! Please listen

That’s all I can say, “WOW”!! this lady is really good!!!

It’s very brief (1:42) so turn up your sound and pay really close
attention! Full screen is recommended too.

This is a “sermon” that is both brief and very effective. Normally,
might take about 20 minutes for a person to say all this. There is
no stuttering or hesitation at all, and she is absolutely outstanding!
ENJOY!!

LIFE’S AHA MOMENTS

Beloved,

From the longest heat wave we have had in a long time, in the 90’s
to this morning at a low of 63 at 10AM. Mother Nature is claiming
her femininity and responding to the high and lows of the energy
from humanity. I am sitting here at my computer with a turtle neck
long sleeve with a sweatshirt on top of that and a vest on besides.
Brrr, even my hands are cold and they are tingling like they are
asleep. I believe our bodies need some time to adjust their
thermostats from hot to cold or they don’t work right. I could
put my space heater on, after all that is what it is for but I am
too stubborn to pay for heat in summer. Do you think if I went and
jumped in the lake I would get warm?

I am laughing at myself as I become the observer and watch my human
self make decisions that don’t make much sense except it is the way
I feel. I have had a week of AHA moments while I was dealing with
the mundane.

Since I have a well, there are more minerals in my water and my tub
and toilet get this deposit that kind of looks like an orange stain.
My toilet I can soak in products that almost remove all the deposit.
My tub and tub walls are a different story. Since I cannot be
in the area of any chemical spraying, I paid for a young lady to
clean my tub area with sprays and I stayed out of the bathroom. It
really did not work that well on the accumulated minerals and my
walls were kind of streaked.

This bothered me every time I see the tub area because I soooo want
it to look clean. Would you believe that guidance gave me one heck
of an idea? I mean it was that small voice that you have to pay
attention to. I never expected to get mundane help from above so
maybe my expectations are too low. I will pay more attention from
here on out. Guidance said to use Mr. Clean erasers??? I had used
them before and I had a half one left so I tried it. Much to my
surprise it worked better than anything else and NO spray or chemicals
that would set me on my heels for a couple of days.

So I went to the store and checked out what Mr. Clean has to offer.
It is an aisle that I rarely go down because the chemicals just
exude from all the cleaners. Mr. Clean had a pack of different
sizes and made for different jobs. They even had one for the
tub so I bought it. I couldn’t wait to get home to try it.

It worked so well and so easily that I was flabbergasted. I got
so excited that I whooped and hollered and danced up and down when
I looked at my tub. It looks so clean and it was something that
had disturbed me for so long because I felt helpless to do anything
about it. Now, if someone moves my shower curtain, I will not be
embarrassed. Not only that, but I will feel clean just by stepping
into my tub even before I take a shower.

Here is video that shows how excited was!

Hoarded Ducks See Water For The First Time….
Now this is something that will bring a smile…. These ducks were
rescued from a hoarder’s home; they had never seen a water pond,
etc. Mother nature definitely took over!!

Is there something mundane upsetting you and you feel helpless to
do anything about? I don’t remember asking guidance for a
solution to that particular problem and now I wonder how many other
solutions I had over looked. That guiding voice is so small that
sometimes I do not hear it or I think it is just my mind talking
to me. I keep asking guidance to speak louder so I will realize
that it is not just my overactive mind. Now, this has shown me
that if I am quiet, I will hear that small voice and if I listen,
things will go so much smoother.

Two days later, I noticed a daddy long-leg spider in my tub. It was
not a big one and I know that if a spider gets in your sink or in
your tub that has nothing but smooth surface, it cannot get
itself out. I was concerned because as a Reiki Master, I have taken
a vow to respect ALL life. I do not kill any insect except the
other day, I automatically slapped at a mosquito and killed it. I
felt bad afterwards but it was so automatic that I had not thought
first. Fortunately, I rarely have occasions with mosquitoes.

Back to the spider, I tried to figure out how to get it out without
the spider getting on me as I walked it to the door. One of my
biggest fears were spiders. My older brother used to close me in
the closet and tell me that there were spiders crawling all over me.
He and his friends once held me as he, one by one, pulled off the
kegs of a huge daddy long-leg and put them on me. No amount of
screaming stopped them. I finally conquered that fear by using my
husband’s shoes to kill them when they showed up and finally got
to using my own shoes. It took me a couple of years to progress
to the end of the fear and this was before I became a Reiki Master.

Finally, I realized that it would never be able to climb out because
my tub was even more slippery since I cleaned it. I took my bath
mat and let it hang over the side of the tub and put it down to the
bottom of the tub so it would have something to clime on. Every time
it got on the rug and I tried to pull the rug, it would run off of it.
Trying to help this spider was an exercise in realizing just how
hard it is to help others. How many times do our guidance and
angels try to help us and we run away? Because we don’t know what
will happen in the next moment, we stay in our comfort zone and
try to solve all our own problems when there is help just a
hand away.

It was quite a meditation as I was trying to help a life form that
God created without actually having to touch it. The spider
finally got up on the rug and I was able to fold the rug without
hurting it and I walked it to the door and put the mat on the
stoop so it could be free. Was this an opportunity from heaven
for me to realize that help is just a thought away? Or a prayer
away as we have free will and cannot be helped until we give
permission by asking.

Trying to help this spider was an exercise in realizing
just how hard it is to help others. We may be perceived as a threat
rather than a helping hand. Life does teach us a lot when we take
the time to listen. I am so grateful for these AHA moments for I
learn so much from feeling.

Speaking about God’s creatures, have the bears been bothering your
bird feeders? Have you stopped feeding the birds and miss them?
Here’s a solution. A bear proof bird feeder pole.

I have not seen a bear in my yard but I know many who do. I think
I will stick with spiders, they are easier to help.

This You Tube site came to me today. It is Ervin Laszio, a

PARENTAL LOVE ON DISPLAY

Beloved,

We all know that our world is having a severe weather problem. Where
I live we have had the 2nd wettest June in History. The heat waves
not only last a couple of days but 5 and 6 days long and it rains
every day. I have never EVER said this before but I actually said I
wish summer would go away because it was so HOT and MUGGY and hard
to breathe. The fact that I don’t have an air conditioner (my choice)
made it even more difficult. I even went shopping for an air
conditioner but there were no more left. I would jump in the lake
2 & 3 times a day just to get my body temperature down.

It was quite difficult on the animals, my birds in particular. You
know I feed grape jelly to the Baltimore Orioles which they love.
I left my step stool outside because I had to fill the feeders twice
a day because I only gave them two tablespoons of jelly at a time as
the rain would wash the jelly away and I could never tell when it
was going to rain because the rain came suddenly like a thunderstorm
does. I need the stool to feed both the orioles and the hummingbirds.
Even my son mentioned to me questioning why I kept my step stool
outside, I had never done that before. I only need to clean and
do the hummingbird feeders every 5-6 days so I usually keep the stool
in the garage. In order for the Orioles to feed and have food for
their babies, I was out there at least twice a day putting jelly out.

I am mentioning this because it has been such an unusual summer and
even the birds at my feeders have changed. I could not believe my
eyes when a “young” Flicker woodpecker came and ate the jelly. He or
she was there every day and suddenly the Father of the youngster was
eating the jelly also. He was saying:”Son, I never knew this was
here and it is so good”. He usually eats at the feeder that has the
sunflower seeds. We seniors can always learn something from our
younguns. Because of the grape jelly I have Catbirds coming to my
feeders also and they also feed their young the jelly. Yesterday as
I was doing dishes, I noticed a large orange shaded butterfly at the
jelly also????? I get the hornets every year but this year I am
inundated with honey bees. I wonder if their honey will taste like
grapes? The bees and the hornets are a signal to me that the birds
will be migrating soon. The baby Orioles are coming to the feeders
and I even saw a parent give a young one an insect?, it looked like
it had a tan wing in its mouth before giving it to the young one. I
had never seen that before either. The young Orioles are growing
quickly so I know their time with me is limited now. Sigh.

Feeding birds really gives me an insight into family life. Both
parents pitch in to help and no adult bird will pick on a young
one at the feeder. The young ones are allowed freedom to be curious
and feed when they want regardless of any other bird at the feeder.
They know no fear so they do not react when another bird comes close.
In this vein of thought, I give you a link that emphasizes the love
of parents for their children.

Why not love yourself as you love your child or any beloved?
Can we oldsters learn from this youngster?

I hope you enjoyed these videos? LOVE does make the world go round.
SOOOO LOVE yourself and others shamelessly.

Guess where I am going now? Blueberry picking! Just up the street
from me is a small farm run by young parents of two children. They
have blueberry bushes that NEVER get sprayed so they are organic.
It was just last year that I decided to buy some from them and they
are the sweetest and biggest blueberries I have ever had. I have
not been blueberry picking since I was around 10 years old so I
am going to give it a try. I’ll think of you as I eat them right
from the bush. Have a wonderful day and week.

Love and Light
