Monday Musings and the Mentor Muse
There are days when life invites you to dance with your imagination and linger there a bit longer than usual. These are the times you’re reminded of the fine line between what you imagine and what is, because they become one.
And these are the times that reflect to you the power of your creative energy.
The light codes shining through our days recently have been truly amazing, as you can see in the photo above. And they feel indicative of potential – the seeds of activation. The rainbow glistens and unusual orb-like beams of presence seeming surreal…as if from another world.
This is the way I see things in my visions when I imagine.
And the prismatic colorful glistens even showed up in the untouched snow, leaving us surrounded by blankets of rainbow prism crystals scattered across the land. I tried to capture all the crystalline gems sparkling, but the photo below was the best I could do and your imagination will have to join for the rest.
The snow carpets of rainbow prism gems were scattered across the landscape making us feel like we arrived in Wonderland itself.
Now imagine this multiplied to cover the entire surface and standing there in silence surrounded by the untouched crystalline magick glistening, as if sprinkled by the faeries for only your eyes to see.
If this isn’t pure enchantment, I don’t know what is.
This is imagination manifested into reality – well, my imagination that is.
This is how I imagine the reality in my visions and here it was before me.
And the more we allowed ourselves to be dazzled by this display, the more brilliant it became all around. The more we lingered in captivation, the more our imaginations built bridges to the sights before us and the two merged, multiplying and relishing in the joy of being unleashed.
The colors became more pronounced, twinkled with wonder, and put on a show, as everything came alive in rainbow crystal delight.
I love where imagination wanders and what it can manifest when left to its joy of creating.
You can infuse an extra little bit of magick in your life by engaging your imagination and giving yourself moments of possibility or joyful expressions even if just for minutes a day.
Your imagination doesn’t distinguish between real and not real. It’s all real and from this expansive space is where you create new realities by aligning you with manifestations.
Realities are becoming more fluid and much more instantaneously reflective of our visions, thoughts, and intentions.
So choose wisely, compassionately, and playfully. And choose to let go some times too, having fun running wild with possibility.
You might just find Wonderland inhabits the liminal space between your judgments and your joys.
And speaking of possibility aligning you with manifestations and creating new realities, as promised The Mentor Muse ~ Guiding Inspiration for Life’s Work Alignment is now open to receiving applications. I’ll be taking applications only through March 20th and journeying with only three people. You’ll find details and how to explore this possibility, obligation free, at the page below:
Pure Imagination Creates New Realities
This song (one of my favs from one of my fav movies) has been in my heart strongly the last couple of days and flowing through my voice. I don’t dictate what inspirations come through, they simply do. Passing along the message, as it feels needed out there collectively. This goes along with yesterday’s reblog on continuing to dream and imagine in order to create new realities.

Two Faeries & an Elf Go Flying in a Cosmic Blue Dragonfly & All Remains Well in the World
While many thought Saturday 9/23 would be the end of the world, I was flying high in the sky with fellow Faery “Bean” and “Happy” the Elf, piloted by Bruce (whose wife also “coincidentally” is a Reiki practitioner) in the Cirrus G6 that I dubbed the Cosmic Blue Dragonfly from the moment I saw her. Originally we were set to fly on the Equinox, but weather shifts changed all that to the next morning, putting us on track to get our “wings on” over Lake Tahoe’s portal on the day apparently was thought to be the end to Earth. I never believed that when I heard it and actually didn’t even know people were thinking this until just days ago, as I’m often simply in a different reality. Regardless of what took place in that vortex in the sky, all still appears to remain well in the world…..or did we return to a different one, after entering a new timeline during flight? 😉
Either way, it was a fantastic time and that’s all I tend to focus on, is how to enjoy and embrace every moment. Things do continue to feel fresh and new though, so anything is possible and I do believe we are recreating realities every moment we dream our lives into being.
I’m so grateful to my sweet friends who invited me as a surprise gift for finishing my book this week. It was a flight Faery Bean had won in a raffle at an air show and gifted to Happy the Elf for his birthday present (just this July). There was one seat open and little ol’ T Faery got to join – boot and all!
I didn’t realize when we took this photo that my bag was positioned over my boot, but you can see it peeking out. If you zoom in you may even see that my bag is from Bunny World Foundation (a donation purchase to help the bunnies and where Cosmo came to me from, so he was with me in spirit too).
Anyway, I’ve had to work at being grounded here throughout my life, feeling more at home off-planet. I’m much more comfortable swimming or flying – flowy experiences – but have finally anchored my feet more solidly in the last couple of years, especially during our Magick Bus adventure where I deepened my relationship with Mother Earth to a whole new level and started anchoring more of my mountain goat essence in with all of our hiking, climbing, and in a lot of cases scaling edges and doing trails like Angel’s Landing in Zion, which I never thought I would.
Little by little I’ve been facing my fear of heights, which only is isolated to being on edges of drop-offs when my feet are on the ground, as I don’t have a single qualm about flying whether that be a tiny plane like the Cirrus G6, or small planes and helicopter rides flying over Alaska’s glaciers, Kauai’s landscape, and more, or even paragliding when I ran off the side of Mt. Haleakalā on Maui and instantly said yes to my tandem partner spiraling us rapidly in the sky when he asked if I liked roller coasters (not knowing what that entailed), or parasailing high above the ocean in Cancun. I’m also that crazy little Faery (and likely annoying person smiling and weeeeing the whole way) in the airplane who will get super excited when there’s turbulence in flight…the more the merrier!
Perhaps all of my Pisces (water) and so much air energy (the most of any element I have) in my chart, (Aquarius, Libra, Gemini) makes me feel unstable in those incidents because my feet feel more prone to become flippers or disappear as my wings take over. So it requires me to REALLY mentally focus and send energy through my feet to keep me in my Capricorn mode. And once I do, I’m really good at it, but it takes everything out of me in training myself to make this my new norm. And I imagine will need consistent working at to get to a place of not having to energetically psyche myself up.
Hence part of the reasons involving my foot fracture experiences in trying to make adjustments to help that balance and to move into fuller embodiment of my Capricorn North Node, Mars, and Ascendant – so lots of shifts to help integrate ALL of my parts.
Anyway, I’ll soon have more chances for this, as my healing time aligns with snow season coming and I’ll be back snow shoeing and/or hiking with crampons here shortly and early 2018 looks like I may be scaling the Grand Canyon and exploring secret areas with Bean and Happy on a week’s backpacking adventure. Couldn’t think of any people better to support this healing integration for me and to do it with, as they are Grand Canyon experts and know her inside out, sharing love, reverence, and passion for all of her majesty and mystery!
They’ll actually soon be working there, as they manifested their dream job for a season, proving anything you desire you can create! I love how they are living their dreams and how we share so much in common, as they have been living in their RV for 3 years now – they started just before we did! So looking forward to that chance and grateful for the invite!!! Yes, a little foot fracture doesn’t stop me. I just take precautions, process the messages, and do my healing, then keep embracing life with new perspective.
And a new perspective is what we got of beautiful Lake Tahoe, as we flew over her like my Avian brothers and sisters at 180 miles an hour. Our experience was incredible from start to end with Mountain Lion Aviation
Even though this was a free flight, they treated us in style, meeting us with coffees in hand, warm greetings, and pulled the plane right up to the door where we sat waiting for it with our pilot, Bruce, coming right in to get us.
After debriefing on what to do in case of emergencies, including instructions to me in the co-pilot’s seat on how to get the plane over water, near shore, in case of his being incapacitated, which included how to engage the parachute this plane has! Yes, it has its own safety parachute to see the plane down in an emergency. Incredible!
That put Bean’s mind to ease a bit, as she’s more comfortable as a Capricorn, with both feet solidly on the ground. She did amazing though, even with her fears of flying, which we helped her with. Most people would just say, “Heck, no! I’m not doing that!” But not Bean!
Beautiful mutual support with each of our opposing fears and her being a Capricorn, perfectly helps me in embodying my Capricorn North Node! Yay! We were so proud of her, as most people wouldn’t do something they are afraid of, but she said, “I couldn’t let Happy go on his own. If he goes, I go!”
Yep, we’re all in this together! Love has a way of seeing you through things…..something I have learned deeply in my own life with my bunny loves and Dave.
(Side note: I love the above “accidental” photo capture that had us rolling later when we saw it, that shows Bean gripping tightly to Happy’s pant leg while in flight, and squeezing out a smile. Awwww! You go girl!! You just moved right through it and used those mental powers to see you to the other side!)
It was an incredibly beautiful day, after the snow a couple of days before, lacing the mountains with white. The water was so clear and with some wind, the white caps rolled across the lake like dolphins jumping out of the water everywhere.
It was so fun to see our home, gorgeous Emerald Bay, look at our condo from the lake, look at the areas we all had shared hikes, and simply to be floating in the air!
Although not everyone would agree with me, the bit of turbulence near the end, stomach drops, and fun turns, really got me going. I turn into an exuberant little girl with all of that. Very exhilarating! Likely much like Bean feels on the edge in the Grand Canyon, which she’ll soon be able to share and help me with! 🙂
Before we knew it, it was over, and our smooth landing grounded us back on Earth – yep she was still there! Hehe!! But perhaps it was we who were changed and went through a rebirthing of our own, solidifying our connection together too and how wonderfully we mesh and work together.
We said goodbyes and thank yous, then hopped into their van and right as we pulled down the street a hawk soared and circled above and ahead to greet us back. I knew once again that they had been watching over us and all was well, as they always show up to message me at divine timings.
Later, Bean noted to me a connection to the 425 number of the plane we rode in, connecting it to the same numbers, just switched around, but still equaling 11, to our manifestion anchoring right now for Dave and I (more on that soon). I was like, woahhhh that’s too awesome! I just love these alignments that constantly take place.
We then enjoyed the rest of the late morning and early afternoon exploring Tahoe City, driving around the west side of the lake (we drove up the east side on the way to the Truckee Airport) rounding out a full circle lake experience of “as above, so below”, enjoyed vegan lunch at a Mexican restaurant, and shared part of that anchored manifestation together, I spoke of.
It was a perfect day and while things can always seem so simple and arbitrary, there is always so much more involved than meets the eye.
So grateful for the beautiful and ever-surprising gifts life keeps abundantly revealing. If that plane ride was any evidence of how life will continue taking things to new heights and incorporating new perspectives of life I have yet to know, then I’m definitely “in”.
It seems right now like I/we sit on this amazing precipice to so much potential and the way to embrace the unknown is to bring all of our parts along with us for the ride, live as joyously as possible in your micro world as an example, be grateful for things, and take a bird’s eye perspective of the macro, as there really is something more at work than your mind can grasp. The wider you open yourself, the more you can relax peacefully into things and not become encumbered by the details. They do have a way of working themselves out and bringing things into balance.
Always have and always will.
No coincidence I complete and publish this at 11:11 am!
New Moon ~ New Year ~ New Beginnings
I sent out this newsletter yesterday and thought the message in it might be of interest to share here as well, given the energetic dynamics and field of experience collectively.
Here is the link:
New Moon…New Year…New Beginnings ~ Reforming & Recreating with Creative Inspiration & Harmony
Rewriting A New Ending ~ Deepening a New Beginning
Dream posts continue, as this was another meaningful dream I felt compelled to share now that I’ve had time with it for myself. The day after my dream I posted yesterday about the two blue snakes and gila monster, as you might recall was the day “The Tree Beckoned and I Followed.” Well, after that experience in finding the presence of orbs all around me inside the tree portal (appearing like I’d stepped inside the Cosmos) that night I had another potent and healing dream that brought full circle a gift from my beloved rabbit, Joy, who has also been showing up so profoundly lately.
Synchronously, this was also the night of the marches collectively taking place.
Since many of you so sweetly sent messages and love about Joy when she transitioned and have followed along with my bunny love’s journeys, I thought this might be not only conclusive as a companion piece to my share about Joy’s last moments and days on Earth in the physical I wrote and spoke about extensively in this post “In Life & Death, “Joy” Is Always There,” but may also be supportive to others who have experienced loss of their beloved animal companions and loved ones in demonstrating the eternal connection that does not end and how we are continually being supported by the connection shared.
In my dream on Saturday 1/21, Joy was with me and she had taken ill, just like in the end before she left in waking life. The odd thing was that her tail came off in the dream and it was very large – much larger than normal size. It literally broke off on its own, but perfectly. I could see all of the tiny bones and ligaments that connect it to her bum, but where it broke off was so clean and precise, without blood or any signs of injury. This indicates to me a sense of no suffering being experienced on her “end” and a clean “ending” and healing closure at the “tail end” of this experience. The tail being so large and furry feels to be definitive in this closure and the “end of an era” again reiterated for me, balance being restored, and that I’m using intuition, creativity, and wisdom in my life more than ever and this will be increasing.
Although rabbit’s feet are connected to “lucky charms,” the tail may also be considered as such since there is connection with rabbit’s tails as their way of escaping predators with the white flash of the tail confusing them as to their exact location when in pursuit.
I also feel this symbolism she showed me is directly connected to my book, but that’s for me to understand the connection, although I will say that direct healing is involved on many levels with its unfolding.
But back to the dream….
I then notice her feet, especially the left one, and they look exactly like Fiver’s – the mouse that I nurtured recently.
These mouse feet were only on her back legs, just like Fiver’s back legs were the only part of him that showed signs of his injury from the impact to that area and lower back.
That left leg on her was completely limp, red, bruised. I remember one spot on Fiver’s leg had a bruised, red area, so again tied in with him.
Then in the dream she comes and lays on me, as I comfort her and caress her.
In the dream I start calling around to vets to get her in (just as I did in waking life when she took ill), but I get the sense she won’t make it in time to get there. In real life, she had just made it to the ER after a long over an hour’s drive and then passed not long after I left her in the doctor’s care to monitor over night, at her request.
So, now in the dream I am aware she won’t make it and I will just be with her to help her transition peacefully, just like I was there for Fiver.
She is in my arms and then suddenly she lets out a little cry, followed by one last big breath and I know she is leaving her body with that.
Nestor had let out a piercing, excruciating cry when she left this Earth, but this was different….it was soft and although rabbit’s only cry when in pain, it was an indication of release rather than suffering to me and not as tormenting to experience as Nestor’s was.
(BTW, this is how she actually transitioned when I left her at the ER, as the doctor shared this with me when she called to tell me that she let out a soft cry and took a big breath and went.)
I then rub her head softly, as she lays in my arms and tell her over and over that I love her, wanting that to be the last thing she hears before she completely goes and slowly her heart and breathing wind down to nothing.
I’m sobbing in the dream and at this point can feel my half wake state in real life and know and can hear me wimpering in real life too.
Although emotional, it was a gentle experience and was not at all a dream, but completely a reality she and I were sharing for a purpose and rewriting the end together.
I felt that she was connecting me to understand a deeper healing than I may have been aware of that I had through Fiver.
Perhaps wanting me to know she had projected a part of herself in Fiver when he had come to me, or that he had been sent to me by her, as a way for me to experience this healing with him through her.
This may include being there with her at the very end when she transitioned, since I was not when she passed, as I had left her at the ER by her choice in not wanting me to have to go through that experience.
Although I knew she wanted that and maybe thought I was not ready yet for this, I felt like I wished I’d been there. Maybe her seeing how I handled Cosmo’ passing, made her now know I was ready and she gifted me this experience in “dream” time and with Fiver, so I could relive being there with her.
And she gifted it in a gentle, beautiful way.
Even the way that Fiver jumped on the crystal when he transitioned, like blasting off into the Cosmos, could have been a sign of connection with her since Joy was so connected to crystals herself and always layed with them and had their points jutting into her body to receive their energy, working with gridding our homes and journeying with them.
This dream, as they all are to me, was very “real time”. And I did feel this sense of deepening closure and peace knowing I supported her this way and that I was strong enough now to keep going through these kinds of experiences in supporting these sweet souls in their transitions.
And afterall, Joy is a cosmic traveler, shape shifter, and portal journeyer. You might recall that she and Nestor showed up in Glacier National Park as the two cosmic deer on the day I spread their ashes, from this post: Spreading Ashes, Spreading Joy ~ Cosmic Encounters & Sacred Connections
So connecting with Fiver is not far from reach for her either. 😉 And creating timeline jumps for us to relive/recreate what “is” would be right up her alley too. I love how she changed the “ending” and that I could be with her.
Quick side note and speaking of Nestor, the day after that dream we headed down the stairs from our place and the crew was there shoveling the snow as they do and one guy says to the other to alert him we were coming up behind him since he was busy shoveling and didn’t see us, “Watch out Nestor.” I smiled so big knowing my sweet Nestor was wanting to chime in too with reiteration to the dream connections.
And to add to the timings and synchronicity, another tie-in with Joy took place just a couple of days before my dream of her. I received a voicemail message from the doctor in Jackson, Wyoming who did her surgery. The story line of this is included in the above post on her transition.
He was such an angel, who came in on his day off to do this, talked to me on the phone, provided me his personal number and went above and beyond in helping her/me.
A little rewind…..about a month or a few weeks after Joy passed I’d sent him a plant with a nice thank you note just wanting to acknowledge how grateful I was for everything that he’d done for us. He even called me the night she transitioned after talking with the ER doctor that night (late I might add) to give her background right before she passed.
I actually never heard from him after I sent the thank you gift, so I wasn’t sure if he got it, but figured that our crossing of paths was complete.
Then 6 months later he calls and in his message says he just wanted to say hello, was thinking of me, thanked me for the nice plant and thoughtful card…and told me whenever I had time to give him a call to talk because he had felt such a good vibe from me and really connected with me, so he wanted to see how I was.
I was so touched and it felt like Joy’s way of starting to get the ball rolling with her plan of recreating the “end”.
And then back to the day at the tree portal, right before that night’s dream, I now was able to connect the dots and that this portal was activating the opening to this experience Joy was setting up for me to rewrite “history” and I feel that larger orb above me was her.
What an experience and how gracious and loving Joy is to gift me this one thing I had wished.
There are no limitations to our connections, eternal love and bonds, and what is possible.
I feel a greater lightness and deepening of my love with her and my loves, and gratitude for her gifts in knowing what would be perfect for my journey and moving forward with my work.
Creating Unlimited Possibilities: The Ever-Evolving Journey Continues
Today felt like the perfect day to share these announcements with the rain coming down, which is what you hear in the video, cleansing all that has come before and making way for the new we are creating. Our Magick Bus journey has come to full circle closure, but the journey has just begun and is expanding into greater and unlimited possibilities, all anchored in the imagination of our hearts, as is aligned with the cosmic flow abound. We’ll be nesting in for the winter where I’ll be finishing my book in the inspiration of our “chateaux dans le ciel” (as its owners named it) – “castle in the sky” new home for the next 6 months while the rest of our visions unfold. I couldn’t imagine a more perfect place to create our next dreams. We’ll miss the Magick Bus and her nurturing guardianship, as well as her ability to provide opportunity to see with new eyes, and we wish for her to find the perfect soul/s whom she can help bring their dreams into manifestation too.
Please excuse the breaks, as my recorder kept stopping and I tried to just pick right back up.
Frequency Holders of the New
In times like these we need those of you who are the frequency holders to keep strong within that personal embodiment of pure energy you are here to emanate, regardless of what is going on all around, and yet transmuting it as you walk through it. I’ve been sharing my take on purpose being about the presence you bring to anything you do, and for some within the collective that is simply, but importantly, about being present with your frequency and song that you sing, above all else, and carrying this through anything you choose to be engaged in along your path. For these people, life is about doing everything as a sacred and seamless act – there is no separation as to what defines sacredness. These are the souls helping to anchor the new and may not live life out loud in the sense of being famous, but quietly do their most important work from behind-the-scenes and remain somewhat just under the radar. Much is tearing apart at the seams and being tugged to extremes right now, which all has its purpose and will create a mirroring reality of individual choosing. These frequency holders will embody new realities within the creatively unlimited potentialities of a middle way.
Stay strong. Your energy is much needed and your courage is much honored.
Kill the Buddha & Become
I’m sharing last night’s dream for what ever it’s worth and what I, personally, took away from it. As always, please derive your own messages.
I was carrying two things in my hand. I don’t remember what one of them was, but the other was a small sacred box.
It reminded me of, and I thought at first it was, the cedar box my Nestor’s ashes are in, but it turned out to be a different sacred box, with a handle at top and I realized I was carrying the ashes of Buddha in it.
Then, someone was tattooing my face, but it felt larger than it is. What they were tattooing were giant black eyebrows in the shape you see of Buddha’s and the Buddha Eyes. So I had these larger than life black tattooed eyebrows and somehow I proportionately shifted into a much larger size to wear them.
I feel this is about enlightenment being to symbolically “kill” the Buddha and BECOME.
In addition, what we think of reality is an impermanent illusion and when you feel you’ve arrived at some idea or “correct” version of enlightenment, “killing” that idea, detaching from it, and continuing to creatively expand into other realms of possibility may be of great growth potential.
The dream reflects on a Middle Way, or other continuously evolving potential versions and realities that exist outside of duality, which has pervaded my explorations more greatly of late.
Planting Seeds of Intention
Yesterday, the next piece of the journey showed up and began manifesting.
As I’ve mentioned, we decided to move forward into the reality we want to create even though we don’t know how the rest of the pieces will come together.
I just knew that if we did, they would. And they ARE!
It’s important to take actions in support of your intentions and not just sit back waiting. That said, it’s also important to make those moves in aligned timing with the energy presenting itself, following the rhythm of natural flow.
When you receive the signs and messages, feel the nudge or tug, or feel your intuition subtly or loudly guiding you forth, it’s time to take a step.
So when you ask for something you need to also engage it on your own end.
And when you want something you need to be aware that your mind and ego will run amuck giving you every reason why this, that, or the other thing needs to be in place before you do anything – inevitably holding you back and losing opportunities that keep presenting themselves because they aren’t appearing in the form you’ve attached to as being ideal and yet ARE in fact ideal and for the highest good, but you’re too fixated on controlling it.
Anyway, I knew the timing was now for beginning the new adventure and getting the RV. And so we got it when the alignments lit up, and immediately rented the house on a 3 year lease and moved forward.
The rest of when and how didn’t need to be known in my book. I absolutely knew that things were aligned…I have been so strongly living the new reality in embodiment in all ways. And so this was the physical step to take to get the rest in motion.
And since, things have been lining up one by one.
We also, just a week and a half ago, reserved the RV spot at the beach park here we’ll be living in until the next pieces fall into place, giving time for adjustment and integration into the new lifestyle and providing time for the animal companions to get comfortable.
And now the rest of the pieces are starting to show up.
Yesterday was a big day for an integral piece of the puzzle to present itself and fall into place.
Without going into details, as I can’t, 50% of the last part came together, unofficially at first, (in a way I knew possible, but was quite surprising for Dave and would be a “wow!” factor for many indeed) and shed very exciting light on the last 50% potentially happening very soon – sooner than maybe would have been thought and that means that the adventure of traveling the U.S., Canada, and Mexico may begin not long after moving out, as opposed to perhaps taking several months.
So when I said I wouldn’t be here that long, I meant it!
Right now move out and in to RV is October 15th. The final departure date from the area is still a specific unknown, but now is looking to be not long after that. Date to be announced. It at first was completely an unknown with total openness of perhaps even months, but now it is closing in and could be as soon as end of year or before! We will see! I just know it will be perfect, regardless.
It’s been about patience and continuing to move forward…not trying to control, sending energy for the highest good of all concerned, and believing without doubt it was happening.
When I got word yesterday that things were looking like they were happening quite quickly and magickally, I was just about to go out front and plant more Sunflower seeds all around.
And so I used that as opportunity to both literally and symbolically plant seeds of intention.
I brought my fresh seeds I’d retrieved from the two giant Sunflowers that had bloomed and passed already, along with some more of my Heirloom seeds outside, with a watering can, and my gloves and went at it.
It was so hot I could barely sit on the cement or walk on it, but I managed to hang in there to get the job done.
With each seed I planted, I actively stated my intentions in conjunction with the news I’d just heard that possibly was happening, to support them into manifestation. I then watered all of my seeds/intentions to help them grow. The Sun was in full effect, so the light of life itself was igniting the activation of these intents.
This act of connecting my intentions with an actual ritual is something I do all the time in varying ways. It makes the process more potent and integrates it deeply, plus connects me with the divine rhythm and harmony of nature.
While I was seeding, a lovely butterfly friend decided to appear right next to me on the Bougainvillea and just wanted to hang out. At first she was just sitting very present with me amidst the leaves and then at the end began pollinating the blossoms.
This seemed symbolic of being present and patient with the journey, making sure to take time for rest and taking things in. And then her act of pollination was the alchemy of creation.
I did not have my cell phone/camera with me, as I was simply working in the front garden, but when I was done with seeding one side and just sat with the butterfly for a while, I got the distinct feeling she wanted to be seen in a bigger way to share her messages with others.
Butterfly medicine is quite wonderful…bringing magick, transformation, joy, and promise to the seeds I was literally and symbolically planting. Butterfly was given to me as my life path symbol when I first began my conscious spiritual journey…so this was a lovely nudge, and I’ve enjoyed that each time I go out into the garden I’m greeted by a butterfly. I have a white butterfly that has a very ethereal quality that comes to me out back, and also a giant Swallowtail that appears daily.
So I went inside to get my cell/camera and returned to find her still just hanging out, waiting for me. And mind you I didn’t go fast either.
I started snapping photos of her (she was so lovely and my artist’s eye just couldn’t get enough of the images they saw – they are laced throughout this post) and she seemed to dance into different positions in the light and shadows, amidst the blossoms and leaves, posing for me.
She didn’t mind me being an inch or two away from her with my hands. She was never worried I’d do anything and just sat very still. I had the instinct feeling she would have come on my hand, but I also didn’t feel it was necessary.
I rather just share energy and a close partnership where I respected our mutual independence and choice to be together sharing the same space very intimately.
And so she lingered quite a while..so long that in fact I ended up leaving her first, as I wanted to complete the planting of seeds on the other side. So I got up and left to do so, and I noticed when I turned to look back at her, she had disappeared.
Cool synchronicities happened after I returned inside.
I went to go back to my work and saw that I had a message on Facebook. So I went on to read it. When I did, my feed showed me a photo and quote I had posted two years ago that day.
And what do you know? It was a photo of me with a giant butterfly on my finger (taken in Cancun, Mexico back in 2006), as I’m blowing it a kiss.
The quote I had shared with it was:
“There are many things that seem impossible only so long as one does not attempt them.” ~André Gide
And here is the photo:
Talk about being in the zone!!
Then I went to read the message and it was from my sweet Pisces Faery Brother in Seattle who was sending me good wishes and magick, in his shared excitement about my upcoming adventure, and asking me some questions about the RV.
Hehe!!
I then was texting with my Faery sis, Laura, sharing the news. She is also experiencing the same manifestations, openings, and pieces unfolding in her life, just in her own relative ways – we did after all do some big time activating when we visited in person back in May 😉
I discovered that my message went to her at 1:11 my time – 4:44 her time! And she chimed in noticing at 1:44 my time.
A couple of hours later I got word that the “unofficial” piece became official, hence locking in being half way there with the last pieces needed.
Plant the seeds and they grow!
I decided to do a Reiki Healing Attunement (again, I’ll reiterate to anyone who has learned these – if you aren’t using this tool you really are missing out on a powerful gift you have at your fingertips) for the rest of the 50% to come together officially and added a few other goodies in as well….of course adding “for the highest good of all concerned” and using my ritual mantra that opens me/everyone involved to something even better, not being attached to it happening any one certain way.
And I was so excited that I decided to treat myself to some special gifts, ordering them as celebration and to lock in the next portion energetically.
I had been lingering for several weeks on whether or not to get them for several reasons, and I realized that they represented my essence I was wanting to embody more of, in all ways. So, I took the plunge and literally felt this joyous ease and excitement right away, as well as an energetic shedding of skin take place that was going to reveal the new that much more quickly.
I’ve planted many seeds of intention over time and with every experience I continue to learn how to integrate the process more deeply and naturally…so that it is becoming a seamless dance of life with Earth and Cosmos, and literally “creating life as a work of art,” as my personal motto goes.
The more we listen and follow the flow of energy moving through, in and around us, the more easily life becomes to navigate, understand, partner in the creative manifestating of, and all done with more grace and natural harmony.
When the energy calls…I heed the call – no matter what that means in terms of the way life may need to look like. I just need to show up and realize it is always reflecting my truth and deepest heart’s joy when I get out of its way.
This is just another reason why a daily connection to nature in some way where you form an intimate relationship and understanding of her reflections and mutual giving and receiving you can share in honor of how they move you into living, is important and invaluable.
Also, creating sacred ritual around your life on a daily basis and inviting it in when you are wanting to create things in your life can be so powerful.
I see everything as a sacred process and relationship, even if that simply is with myself – the most sacred relationship there is.
Life is a walking meditation, as I always say.
If you have an intention you want to manifest, think of ways you can deeply connect that to a sacred process where you are mutually giving and receiving and connects you to the nature of life itself.
You may find that planting some seeds in your own garden of life will open you to a magickal realm of living and invites a divine partnership to blossom where limits are only possible to the extent you don’t dream, believe, and imagine.
