Here and Now...What's Happening?

[astrid]

Interesting start to my day,
i just locked myself out of my house.
In the backyard, still in my PJ's, whoops.

Nothing that a butter knife and old locks on windows doesn't fix.
It took me like less than 5 mins to break in.
The interesting thing is that two nights ago, i had a dream that someone was
breaking into my house. Well that someone was me, it seems.

Stunning day here, feels like the start of spring, so i will keep playing in my garden while the weather is so good.
Working out a plan to use my little garden shed to grow pumpkins on. Have seen it done before, a good use of a wasted
roof space.

Green juice time.
Love to all of you

I am trying desperately to remember some tactic or exercise to allow peace internally.

Sometimes it's as simple as inquiring into the one you believe is not at peace already, the one you are mistaking yourself for. The more you try to find that one, the more you realize there is no such critter. It was all a figment of imagination, based on a wrong view, a bit of conditioning that you bought into at some point, and then invested a reality in. You don't have to allow peace. You are peace! You only need to stop giving reality to the creation. Yes, that's what the disturbed one is -- a creation. You -- we -- are always feeding the sense of dis-ease, of disturbance, based on a wrong idea, a false belief. We just need to stop doing that, and what is already true, prior to the disturbance, will emerge. It is the light we are. It is the happiness we are. It is what we've been covering up, because we have been told that we should be unhappy, and frantic, and disturbed. That is all a big lie. We don't need to desperately search for peace. Peace is our actual nature, love is our true condition, happiness is our birthright. Let's all stop falling for what's not true, and allow what is, to be the case.

Blessings!

another or additional way of thinking of it is..the underlying mechanism is the same one that informs you that you have pain, or an itch.

It is the input output wiring/response system gone wild, in it's own loop. hyping the data to the point that it interferes in thought and thus expression.

Some might see the enterprise.

I see a very tolerant dog.

Noticing lots of " bridge" moments of late.
As in friends that are kind of awake, kind of not, are finding things that bridge that gap,
and calling me to tell me of these "discoveries", to which i reply , " oh really?? "

Thankfully i gave up on that quest to try to wake everyone around me up a few years back,
working on myself works much better, again, the osmosis effect.
Many birds, one stone, i must admit being a Libran i like to work as efficiently as possible.

Like with that storm , i went in to the eye , asking if there is anything the storm needed to
be more in balance, being fueled by people's fear it was "wonky" ( technical term, lol) .
And It simply needed compassion. A storm is what a storm is, the dance of energies combined to create
a packet of forces that can be then used for intense clearing and cleaning, or other things depending on
what is seeding it to begin with, we know of course about the weather wars, HAARP.

I myself was working on some personal things, that had been a sticking point, so i asked the
storm with reverence and great respect if i could merge and use some of its energy to help me
with a healing project. The storm was honored and pleased to have been asked to be used for this
purpose, and i extracted a small amount of energy and used it to flood in and around all four chambers
of my heart. This was a first for me, and it was extraordinary how much love i felt and how much power,
my heart, literally felt, still does like it was being pumped out from the inside. I returned what energy i
didn't need with gratitude and much love. The storm then, as per the radar quickly receded, and withdrew its
attraction for the people on land that had been feeding it fear.

Of course it was all very much a group effort, with me having my small part in the circle, but i thought it
was a fascinating learning, today I'm still feeling very honored to have worked with "Ernie", and for that teaching.

A little compassion goes a very very long way, literally.

Yes... Blue Heelers, or " Blueys" as we call them here,
are very very tolerant dogs

Good morning Village (10:05 am),

We bought a trampoline for the kids (3,5 diameter) and it's such a joy for them and us as well to watch them.

that astrology post that was shared here a couple few days ago is so on point.

right now it is all about relationships at every level.

anybody feel as if you've come to the end of something? as if these early days of august are really preparation for movement into a new phase of life? i don't just feel that way, it is that way in every aspect of my life.

in one sense it feels amazing, to be at a space where everything in the past is being left there.

2012 is over half over and there has been nothing traumatic as of yet to the world consciousness.

no mass deaths by earthquake or tsunami, no wars of mass destruction although syria is quickly approaching that point and the ptb's closing in on Iran with the lies and setups of each news cycle.

but all of that reads like a book of fiction. it is distant, what is important is what is going on with each of us, even those of us in the battlezones, each person, each soul. those who made the agreements to live through these times, to go through these experiments also agreed to be subject to the astrological influences that shape us individually and collectively.

the future is love. the future is empathy. the future is compassion. the future is togetherness. the future is community.

but to truly love another we have to first love ourselves.

now is all about getting to the stage where we can, finally, really and truly love ourselves. but to do so we first have to know ourselves and face our baggage fully and firmly. that is the darkness of these days. the difficulty as we witness what our own personal energy has wrought in our lives and the lives of others.

for those who've done the work, this is a time of consolidation, of feeling the bonds lift and a sense of freedom rising with each passing day.

such a blessed feeling. such a wondrous time to be alive.

Sorry, the Tarot expert is off for the weekend.

Let me give it a try: (by the way, was there a question?)

The sun: life-giving force.
High Priestess: female, and mediator between dimensions, transmuting energies.
Judgement: re-establishing balance and harmony.

Without judgement there can be no justice,
and as long as there is injustice there can be no love, only suffering,
even though it may be at a repressed unconscious level.

No matter how much shadow work one does,
there will always be some resentment there
if life itself is seen as unjust.
And from that pool of inner resentment more unpleasant experiences emerge.

Until one sees and believes that all and everything is perfect just as it is,
and accepts imperfect events as fragments of a perfect whole
one cannot truly radiate love.
Yet that LOVE starts to flow all by itself, once this is understood. It's easy.

Good Morning,

Have my footing a little better this morning. So much to learn...

Hmmmm. This reminds me of a time I was trying to lose some weight, some years back. I had read that when the body weight starts to drop, the brain sends messages to eat...in the form of "hungry." Seeing it this way, I was able to enjoy the "hungries" because when I felt them I knew it was an electrical signal and nothing more. And, it told me I was shedding a pound, which is what I wanted. I knew there was no need to panic, while losing a pound might be against the pre-programmed survival instinct. I could override this because I knew there was no danger of falling into malnutrition.

Now, how I use this to separate from the other signals, i.e. the signal of "discombobulation," is the challenge. Wow, it is a lot harder than the "hungries." Thanks Carmody.

Love to all,

I forgot how important a learning tool the body is for spirit. It is a marvellous vehicle to comprehension because it incorporates a unique perspective that is ultimately, uniformly shared.
The key is ultimately...In the meantime these unique perspectives form relationships to develop a deeper understanding of themselves by way of intimate contact with other selves. It is those relationships that sort out the relavent from the inane - often only through conflict. Ultimately, that understanding will be perfectly shared and uniformly applied.

The key is ultimately...because what has happened in eternity has already happened in the now - the only moment.

just a thought

Today we are harvesting our grapes, since they have ripened early, given the intense sun of late. They are a sweet concord variety, and most will be transformed into jam, and some will be dried for raisins:

[benevolentcrow]

This is the truth!!!

[1inMany]

Haha. Today Little One informed me that mommy said it is okay to say, "Are you serious?" But not okay to say "sh1t"... Hahahahahahhaaha

Oh, and you haven't lived until you have been exploded by The Hot Lava of Doom only to "come back alive" and give hugs and kisses until you roll on the floor laughing...

Ah, thank you for the reminder to play...and giggle...

Much Love,

This may be the truth, but is also the beginning of great deception and conspiracy.
What a wicked world we weave.

Maybe "wicked" is something extra we add, based on our own particular filters, to what simply is.
