Wonderful, Happy Day

Published August 11, 2020 by tindertender

My supervisor allowed me to leave an hour early from work today. You see, it is a very special day.

I drove to my home town in the forest that lines the Columbia River Gorge and treated myself to a nice mineral bath and wrap afterward. The window was open and the birds were singing.

I thought about my Soul Brothers and Sisters … my Soul Family.

I thought how it isn’t just my birthday, it is our birthday … as Soul Family, all birthdays are ours to celebrate with each other, however that shows up.

I found myself even more grateful for them as I considered our shared beingness, our intimate connections through Soul and Spirit.

It dawned on me how large my family truly is … and I vowed to honor them all, even when I find myself annoyed, because love is what holds it all together. Even when sometimes we must love each other from a distance.

After my sweet and relaxing treat I stopped at the boat launch to watch the kite surfers. They are A-MAZ-ING! I was in awe as I saw their acrobatic moves, imagining the strength that each one of them has to possess in order to do this for sooooo looooong! They were surfing, then flying … it was really a sight to see.

Driving up the highway I stopped for a picture of the Bridge of the Gods. The trees are tall here (I am glad).

There was a plaque listing some sites to see should one wish to. Someday … I’d like to visit the Stonehenge memorial.

There was an interesting bit of history listed also, and my imagination roamed as I pondered it.

Here’s a couple more pictures from here, near the Bridge of the Gods. It certainly is a beautiful place, this planet … our GAIA.

Another site along the path back to town.

As I approached the city I literally felt the heaviness creep in. The energies here are dense and mottled.

Remaining in good spirits requires extra effort when dwelling here amid these condensed energies.

So I made a resolution, my birthday resolution. I vow to train myself in an Attitude of Gratitude. Not just for a moment, or a day, or a week … but as a new habit … one that will never need breaking or reformatting.

Thank you Creator and ALL Spirit/Soul entities who gifted me such a wonderful day today. I felt the blessing of it to my very core, filling my essence with beauty.

For this … my first day … I Am Grateful.

Oracle Reading 8-11-2020

Published August 11, 2020 by tindertender

You may be tempted to stray from your goal or intention. You may receive an offer that is difficult to refuse. Do not underestimate your ability to attract people to your cause.

You will be victorious. Teamwork or a partnership may be better than going it alone. Synergy is important right now. Delegation is useful.

Justice will be done for the good of all. Take responsibility for your actions. The chaos in your life will end; natural order will be restored.

Do not doubt yourself. You can trust yourself. Developing self-trust is a necessary part of positive growth. You will be able to succeed in your goal if you believe in yourself. Sometimes you need to say no.

Change is welcome. Allow the storm to pass, as it is necessary to clear the way. You are protected in your search for equality. Do not misuse your power.

Rune Reading 8-10-2020

Published August 10, 2020 by tindertender

This is my second attempt at Rune Reading. Please bare with me as I train myself, and if anyone has a different idea of what this particular layout is saying, please share in the comments section. Here is the layout:

The problem: The first pair is NIED and JERA. NIED suggests patience is needed, no amount of rushing something will make it work out any faster. This could be a difficult learning situation. This time is known as crossing the abyss by many occult writers and is often a time of extreme emotional travail. However, meeting this emotional challenge head-on and conquering your fear of it can be the catalyst that drives you to overcome whatever obstacles appear in your path later. Paired with JERA (the rune of justice and legalities) in this position implies events must come to fruit in their own good time, and a positive outcome to the dilemma at hand, often utilizing legal help. It could be a warning not to speak ill of others before all the relevant facts are known.

Factors in the past: Next we have BEORC paired with HAGALL. BEORC is a fertility rune, a rune of birth and of family. It always presages a birth, whether it is an actual birth or the formation of an idea. It suggests that any schemes in the works should be implemented right away. HAGALL represents all forces outside your control. It will turn up when you are thinking of taking a risk of some sort. Sometimes this rune will appear to show that your future at this time is in the hands of another. Usually this other has no personal interest in you whatsoever. You may receive notice of this control second-hand, as through an official letter. Trying to fight against fate or circumstance at this time will only bring you grief.

Advice: Next we have FEHU paired with SIGEL. FEHU is a symbol of earned income, something which has to be worked for but will produce an expected source of revenue. Indicates prosperity coming to you in some form. It is a rune of fulfillment – something which you have been striving toward will finally be within your grasp. Signifies overcoming opposition, whether personal, or impersonal. Suggests you have what it takes to win out over the opposing forces through diligence and hard work. Paired with SIGEL it hints at victory. SIGEL is a rune of great power, and much power will be available to you at this time to effect changes in your life. You may be working too hard and sorely in need of a little rest and relaxation.

Result: WUNJO in this position means joy and happiness coming into your life. The shift that was due has arrived, the Wheel of Karma has turned in your favor, and you are about to “come to yourself” in some way. Be happy!

Oracle Reading 8-9-2020

Published August 9, 2020 by tindertender

Journey inwards to uncover insights and information that will be important for your path. Then follow the guidance. You are very connected to the other worlds at this time. The wisdom and intelligence of the Earth and her magic surrounds you. Mother Earths heartbeat has cleared the cobwebs and dust from your inner vision. What you have seen in your dreams and inner vision is not imagination but guidance, particularly if it has bee coming to you repeatedly, and has the potential to become reality. Dreams come true – know it and live it.

Stay alert, as change is in the air. The energies around you are changing at this time, and although it may not always be comfortable, you are equipped with all you need to survive this shift. You are being presented with opportunities to reach spaces you’ve never encountered before, and this can make you feel on edge, but be open to the shifts occurring, because they really are the answers to your prayers. The experience of being hunted or threatened is now behind you and you are being invited to come out from your den and reveal your glory and talents. Trust in your talents in order to be the best you can be in these changing times.

Look at things from a different angle. Fly higher and see new possibilities. Eagle medicine swirls around you, encouraging you to recognize that your views or vision may be limited at this time. Is there a chance that your own desperation, needs or ego could be blocking you from seeing the potential in your current situation? If there are other people involved, you are being guided to see things from everyone’s perspective. If you are feeling the need for something to change, how can you take the higher road? Know that if you have intentions that aren’t for the highest good, it will only hold you back. Eagle medicine can help you change this. The Eagle brings the energy of healing and love directly from the heart of Father Sky and invites you to do all things from a place of love.

Take the higher road and choose the light. Remove yourself from lower-energy experiences. No matter what is happening to you or around you, you have a choice. Choose not to be pulled into dramas, bickering or energies that are just going to limit your joy. If you are surrounded by people who are hostile towards you or someone else, or you are in a negative situation, you are being invited to be the light. You are an incredible person who can really bring light. So how can you change the energy? How can you redirect the conversation to love? How can you protect yourself? How can you help the person that is being picked on? Or are you the one who is guilty of causing a drama? You will know the answers. Know also that you are being encouraged to shine the light you were born to share.

Connect with your desires. The sparks could lead to something beautiful. You are being guided by your angels to connect with powerful energy of desire at this time. If you have recently set an intention to explore your sexual side or become more sexually open, the fire of desire can burn away any old setbacks that are preventing you from expressing that part of your nature. If you are in a relationship, this can indicate a great spiritual and sexual connection.

Take time to rest and recuperate in order to continue your growth. Benefit from the information that will come directly from your heart space. You have been working hard and giving your all to your current situation and it may become draining and detrimental to your development unless you retreat and recharge your energies. So you are being guided to take a step back at this time. If you are working on bringing something together, your over-involvement could impeded the process, so retreat and breathe. If you have something to say or do that could have a larger impact on your life, spend some time in deep thought – even contemplation – before moving forward. Often when we rush in, we don’t see how destructive our actions can be. So meditate and listen to your souls wisdom before proceeding further.

Trust in your angels, guides and ancestors. If you have given your power away, claim it back. There are spiritual allies working in your favor and their miracles will unfold much more easily when you move into a state of trust. So call back your power and stop allowing external forces to divert you from the miracles you deserve. Hand over all of your concerns to your spiritual allies. When you do so, you allow them to send you intuitive guidance and messages that will allow you to correct this situation and come out on top. You have shamanic potential to move between the realms and connect with your guides in an extremely personal way.

Remembering Authentic Power

Published August 9, 2020 by tindertender

As one, we assist and bless each other … let us remember the importance of our union, and bring honor to it once more.

Our degradation has gone on quite long enough ….

Pony up soldiers ….

In Love.

Rune Reading 8-9-2020

Published August 9, 2020 by tindertender

I’ve purchased my first set of runes and below is my first attempt at reading them. Please take from it what you will, or disregard according to your own instinct. As in all readings, your discernment and resonance will let you know if it is for you. Thank you for playing. 🥰

Circumstances are in the lap of the gods. The force is available to you at this time to complete any projects, and a successful conclusion to a problem is at hand. There will be a sense of relief that comes from a positive accomplishment, a mind free from anxiety.

The ending of an old phase of life giving birth to a new and more exciting one. This is a time of positive energies and deliverance, you may be assured of good fortune.

There is a fortunate new influence entering your life, often through unconscious emotions or instincts. EOLH is a rune of friendship and often shows a new relationship with someone who is outgoing, generous and fun to be around. You will be protected from any misfortune. If harm does threaten, you will receive a very strong premonition of disaster which enables you to avoid whatever problems may arise.

There is an indication the spoken word, the taking of advice, or the acquisition of wisdom is forthcoming. Fears should be put aside for the ability to sail through whatever rises with eloquence and ease is yours. Be on the lookout during meetings or chance encounters, especially with older people or those wiser than yourself.

Use careful thought and deliberation, coupled with the advice of another. The advice will be honest and helpful, it will be given totally free of guile and may be just what you need to hear at this time in order to solve a dilemma.

Great victory, success in any competition. This spirit will probably permeate your life for the next three months. You are about to take up a “cause,” or have already done so. It usually concerns the “forces of fair play” versus the “forces of unjust oppression.” You are ready to fight for what you believe in, no matter what the odds, and, you will probably succeed.

Extreme motivation is present, showing a strength of will and a singleness of mind that can enable you to overcome all odds. You will keep up the fight and go from strength to strength tearing up the opposition.

You’re receiving an excellent omen in all questions of love and relationships. It is indicated a timely new romance, filled with happiness and passion could be near.

There are forces outside your control. A disruption could be good when you are taking a risk of some sort and there is indication this risk will pay off. There is a faceless other, as an official or someone with no personal interest in you whatsoever. Trying to fight against Fate or circumstance at this time could bring grief. Sit back and go with the flow. There could be an interruption but it will only last a few months. This interruption could be the catalyst that causes you to totally change your direction.

There are things hidden, secrets, and occult abilities. Something that has remained hidden is about to come to light. This something is usually positive, such as a new opportunity or perhaps a retrieval of an object thought to be lost for good. There may be a secret disclosed, one which you may have been trying very hard to keep to yourself.

Unexpected gains and surprises, an unearned gain of money. The givers motives may be suspect, use discernment.

You may have a strong intuitive or occult ability that may soon be called upon to help someone in a difficult time.

This is what the set looks like.

A Wonderful Day

Published August 8, 2020 by tindertender

Cleaning and burning … offering tobacco and sage to Grandfather and Grandmother, thanking Creator for such a lovely day.

Pizza was delivered, and it arrived piping hot! I was impressed at the heat of it and grateful the pizza place is right up the road and they were not too busy. Desert is here too, a chocolatey peanut buttery brownie!

The Fire Spirits are very good at keeping me company. Why, just being able to tend their fire brings a smile to my face and happiness to my heart.

Cleaning the roof wasn’t as dangerous as I had anticipated. Glad I shed the pounds making it easier to maintain balance up that high.

Oooohhhh, I do not want to go in. My fingernails are dirty, my face is too. Need a shower, but the warm breeze is rustling through the leaves … such beautiful music to my ears.

This day, the 8-8 Lions Gate, is a potent day. I spent my time focusing on being positive … however, those pesky negatives tried their mightiest to infiltrate my peace.

Fortunately, just being aware of it, and then choosing a different thought … overriding the uncontrolled dribble that sometimes speaks from the subconscious, makes it easier … this awareness.

And then, I sing a little silly diddy.

Having fun.

Numbers

Published August 7, 2020 by tindertender

Yesterday I was driving along, looked at the clock right at 1:11. This has been happening quite frequently.

The number 111 is a very powerful angel number, and signifies manifesting and manifestation of thoughts into reality.

The number 1 signifies independence, motivation, uniqueness, new beginnings, leadership, progress, moving forward, inspiration and achieving success. The number 11 signifies understanding your soul mission and purpose on this earth. As a combination of these energies, the angel number 111 signifies spiritual awakening and enlightenment, inspiration, high energy, intuition and sensitivity. The number 111 carries the vibration of leadership, creativity and independence, as well as optimism and tolerance of others. Its essence is also joy, inspiration, interactions with others, communication and self-sufficiency.

As I drove along I looked up and lo and behold, a license plate directly in front of me beginning with 222. This is another number that keeps coming up for me.

The number 222 not only reminds you to be positive, but it reassures you that a positive attitude is warranted. It confirms that you are on the right path. The number 2 by itself is a positive sign, and when it is repeated three times, you can be sure that your angel guides are telling you to persevere. The bottom line is that the number 222 is a sign that you are heading in the right direction and need to keep the faith.

The meaning of number 222 suggests that you are at a point in your life where you are looking for some sense of balance. This means it’s the best time to have faith and to keep trusting. It’s a sign that you’re pushing yourself too hard lately, and you need to take it slow and have a break. The angel numbers 222 want you to do away with all these negative energy threatening to overcome your life, and just focus on the healthy and positive things. And in case you didn’t know this, the numbers 222 also mean peace and harmony. This is your cue to take a peaceful stance when it comes to the things that matter, and avoid being baited to negativity and hostility.

https://thesecretofthetarot.com/angel-number-222/

I kid you not, during this same trip I looked to my right as a vehicle passed by … and their license plate began with 333. I thought, “Holy Moly!”

When you see number 333, it means that there are angels all around you. They have heard your requests and prayers, so they are coming in your life to help you. If you see number 333 very often, it means that your angels want to remind you that they are with you at any moment.

The angels are telling you that you are overflowing with power and energy. If you keep seeing 333, the angels want you to know that it’s time to focus on acknowledging your inner truths. It’s time to head out into the world with more purpose. Number 333 represents growth. This can mean that you are currently in the process of growing, or you are about to enter into something that will kick start it.

The angel number 333 wants you to eliminate the things in your life that are no longer bringing you happiness or pleasure. It may not be the easiest task, but it’s something that must be done sooner rather than later. There will be more love, peace, and harmony in your world, and this will help you achieve a balance. You can reach a balance in your body, mind, and spirit.

If you see 333 while running your errands, driving to work, queuing up at the coffee shop for your morning cup, or while doing your shopping, that means something that will really make you happy is coming your way.

Every once in awhile, they really lay it on me. To this I say, “Thank you Guardians, Guides and Angels. I so very much appreciate your presence in my life!”

…. and just when I looked at the views for the day thus far, I find this … hahaha … thanks again my friends!
