Spirit made me do it after I read 1inMany's monster WOW post earlier today.

Of course, things can change, and since then there have been a few moments when it would have been better to
have picked one like this:


or this one:

ok, dropping it for now...back to reality.
Here is a reminder:

Sometimes there's a message that can change a person...and this one I keep going back too...

October 2012 Magical Almanac:

If you have an accustomed mode of prayer, then just pray the way you usually do. If not, then you can adapt this formula to suit your own taste and needs: "Spirit – please bring me (whatever you are asking for), and please bring it to me really soon! Thank you!" It's important that you say "really soon", or else any contradictory subconscious agendas you may have will use this loophole to defeat the spell. It's also important to say "thank you" at the end, as a reminder that the Spirit doesn't owe you (or anybody) anything. After all, the Spirit has given you life; after that anything else is gravy.

Hi Ulli : ) had to grab something from the link for Here and Nowers and Anyone waking up entirely to their own true being through intent and self responsibility and action now...

Most people believe that things just happen; or else that an omnipotent God could make things happen if you could somehow fake God out. Magicians believe that they must take full responsibility for making their desires come true. That's what intent is – taking full responsibility, leaving nothing whatsoever to chance. Casting spells is not at all like sitting on Santa's knee and dictating a list of what you want. Most people are addicted to some fantasy like winning the lottery, or marrying Mr. or Ms. Right, or meeting a true guru, and then all their problems will be over forevermore. These kinds of fantasies are useful in that they can provide a feeling of hope (false though it may be) to help get through the really hard times. However, addiction to such fantasies tends towards irresponsibility. It dissipates the very intent needed to find true happiness in life. Permanent change requires hard work and infinite patience. The final stroke of success may occur suddenly and even unexpectedly, but the preparation and toil take years and years. That's the difference between the magicians' way and average people's way. Average people are looking for a quick fix and a free ride, whereas magicians know there ain't no such thing. Casting spells is not done to dictate to the Spirit. It's done for yourself, to strengthen your intent: to commit yourself, irrevocably, to the realization of your desires. When a spell is cast, it always comes true. The problem is that, if you have been lying to yourself about what you really want in your heart, then you won't see the opportunity when it does pop up.



...that 'years and years' is reduced to a flash of lightning in these times of accelerated change

just felt the need to add that higher note tonight, here and now : )

Although late to the anniversary congratulations I wanted to take the time to acknowledge Ulli for her generous spirit. I remember a thread she started and offered to do astrological charts for forum members. That kind of generosity is rare and it is something that has stuck with me about Ulli.

This forum is richer for her presence and dedication.

PurpleLama looks so proud of his beautiful Lotusblossom....

Utterly gorgeous picture. And she wears braids like me. Purple Lama, what was happening the evening that picture was taken?

[Playdo of Ataraxas]

Here and now, filled with gratitude and very thankful to be home again, settling back into meditative routines. Outside, the refreshing rain from the recent cool front is forcing the torrid summer into subsidence, and the equinox is right around the corner. Though this song is technically jumping the gun a bit, the cool weather is catapulting me into nostalgia. This little diddy is a harbinger of the coming changes of the seasons, in all its many minute imperfections. Enjoy if you will:

I have to echo Modwiz's thoughts, too, and give credit where credit is due: Thanks Ulli, we wouldn't be in the Village without its matron!

I resonate with your music, Playdo. Must be that birthday energy we share.
You know of course that Janis Joplin was another 9th of January birthdayer?
Carmody posted a song of hers earlier today.

[Playdo of Ataraxas]

I saw the post, but did not know she was a Capricorn, much less the 9th! Interesting. I knew that Elvis was the 8th of January, and Richard Nixon's the 9th. Ha!

Thanks for listening, Ulli. "Sun going down, but I still got the light......"

Heya Brother -- I was thinking of you and PL when I posted the Bhagavan Das video, Shiva Gospel.

Thanks for the fine blues link!

Blessings!

I started a new thread, and no one has even looked at it.
Can someone tell me where I went wrong?
It's called "the daily hammer".

Maybe I should have posted this birdie there instead:

I didn't see the thread, I'll take another gander, Ulli!

Btw, pretty birdie!

Here's some Sun Conures I came across today:
