Walk in confidence with this knowing and all the doors of life will “Magically” open. ~ Jody
Take time for the dreamer in you. Find your power in stillness. In your sacred space is the peace you seek.
You have seen and unseen allies. Draw upon their strength. Join forces with friends and flourish.
Laugh at yourself. Lighten your heart. Let nothing steal your happiness.
Be grateful for abundance. Live in appreciation for what you have, and more good things will come.
Be open for whatever comes next. It might just be the music your heart’s been waiting to hear.
“Be careful of your thoughts, for they become your words. Be careful of your words, for they become your actions. Be careful of your actions for they become your habits. Be careful of your habits, for they become your character. Be careful of your character, for your character becomes your destiny.” ~ Unknown

In this reading you can look at just the italic portion for a more earthly meaning, or the non-italics for a more spiritual meaning, or both for a more full interpretation.
Balance imagination and reality. Be cautious of giving undue influence to baseless assumption. Distinguish between opinion and evidence. Become aware of false limitations. Put real effort into proving a doubt or fear wrong. Be open to new ideas and perspectives, but do your homework and ensure a claim can hold true in practice as well as theory.
Only through the eyes of the soul can the true nature of your life, existence and purpose be known. All of life flows from one divine heart of creation. You have a purpose, a meaning and a role to play in this great journey of life. It may be beyond the knowing of the physical world, but it is not beyond the knowing of your soul.
A feeling that history is repeating. The patterns in your past – in your childhood, in your relationships, in your career – are escapable. Stop and learn the lesson so you can move forward. There is no need to mind,easily (endlessly) repeat. Look outside of what you know and break a cycle. Someone, perhaps the universe, is trying to tell you something. A unique response to a repeat problem is needed.
From the flawless patterns of your spirit, a great light shines upon the world. You are a leader, a healer, an inspiration, a free spirit … unrestricted by traditional thinking. A desire to be all you can be, and a vision for positive transformation draws you into deep exploration and clarity. Break free, reshape your destiny and follow the spiraling, intertwining pathways of peace, love and wisdom.
Sudden clarity amid adversity. Acute awareness of yourself and your circumstances. Finding unexpected strength and wisdom in a crisis. Realizing the limits of a situation … pressure cannot make diamonds from coal. Challenging a misconception or calling out a false promise. Isolate and develop an idea, talent or goal to excellence, without external influence. Trusting you will have what it takes when it matters.
All soon clears, heals and is resolved. Peace ascends within you like a glorious bud opening to the surface. Realization comes in a dazzling flash, and you will see the world and your soul as blessed as they truly are. Follow love to the peaceful space inside your heart, your power center, from which all is possible and all is available.
The tedium or drudgery of a safe but unstimulating environment. Denying a problem worsens an outcome. Avoidance f the tough stuff causes dependence, stagnation or loss of self. Make mistakes with the purpose of learning from them. Aim to manage stress, rather than eliminating it. Minimize damage by turning a difficulty to your advantage. A challenge brings needed incentive.
Challenge helps you face and overcome fear. This challenge is a blessing that will in some way make you stronger and more resilient. Open yourself to the light of the world. Draw it into you, be empowered by it and channel it into your environment for all to benefit from. Face all that comes your way and trust your ability to make change for the greater good.
Withdraw to the security of loved ones. Stumbling on or triggering a memory. Stories told in safety. Creative space. A message from the past, for the future. Your body remembers, listen to its story. Deep pain is transformed into wisdom and understanding. An inheritance, legacy or heirloom. Having access to the tools and knowledge you need. Be gentle with who you were and strong about who you will become.
If you are feeling lost, confused or are asking what life is all about, then it may be the perfect time to consult your original self. The one you keep hidden while you grow up and supposedly wiser around it. The sweet, loving, innocent you is not lost. Deep down, you are still that person. The original you exists outside of time, safe and awaiting rediscovery.
An underlying fear of success. New ideas threaten old ways. Positive change respects the past and the future – put your thinking cap on and brainstorm. Step outside of conformity and we’ll-meaning advice. Creative energy is generated through conversation and play. Be prepared for loud applause and the accompanying criticism. Experimentation recharges an interest. A sudden realization brings dramatic change.
An inspirational thought flows into your heart and something new is born. You are focused, inspired and intuitively guided towards success. Much is accomplished with seemingly little effort because the force of love and purpose is on your side. Your work and energy shall touch the hearts of many. Embrace your mental brilliance as part of your light.
BONUS
Put yourself forward. Stand in the sun. Grab an opportunity and run with it. Reach beyond the shade, out of the comfort of darkness, and step into life. Holding yourself back is counterintuitive. Doubt, fear, anxiety and grief may be part of your journey, but don’t let them be the journey. Reach out. Stretch yourself little by little, grow strong and LIVE!
In a fleeting moment of grace, in the space between your thoughts, you glimpse a silent bliss that is beyond words or description. This all-encompassing love is your soulful, spiritual center. It is without beginning or end. Reach for it, and this state of grace shall be a guiding light in this world and beyond. It is life … it is eternal.

BRIDGET BISHOP ~ On June 10 in the year 1692, a woman named Bridget Bishop was hanged on Gallows Hill in Salem, Massachusetts, after being found guilty of the crime of Witchcraft. She was the first person to be publicly executed in the infamous Salem Witch Trials. Accused, tried, and executed for being a witch, Bishop was known to enjoy a drink or two, operated two taverns in town, and enjoyed the game of shuffleboard. She had been widowed twice.
She was bold, outspoken, independent, self-supporting, and liked to wear fine clothes (notably, a “red paragon bodice bordered and looped with different colors” and lace). She was said to have a sharp tongue. Bishop didn’t fit into her society’s notions of how a “good” woman should behave and her neighbors feared and resented her as a result. Though Bishop was the first to be executed in Salem, she was not the last. Take a moment today to remember her, and celebrate the differences you see around you instead of fearing them. – GrannyMoon
Hope is the thing with feathers That perches in the soul, And sings the tune without words And never stops at all. ~ Hope Is The Thing With Feathers, by Emily Dickenson
Human incarnation is not simply an opportunity to learn, but rather an obligation to participate in humankind’s condition, and responsibilities.
The steps in early childhood that take us from sanity to insanity are taken in the moments we disassociate from the collective unconscious. The anxiety produced by our moving away from daily contact with the reservoir and our sacred (life) vow is what makes us crazy. (Vow made prior to incarnating).
As we began to disregard the guidance around us, we began to persecute the very people who might have helped us to see the disaster we were bringing on ourselves by breaking the sacred circle of creation. We persecuted the healers and mediums, the shamans and witches, the visionaries and mystics. In attacking the guardians of our moral boundaries, we created a rift between ourselves and our individual souls, and a rift between ourselves and our common vow. These rifts allowed us to engage in pogroms, wars, the theft of resources, and the hoarding of food and water as a means to killing one another.
We are at a pivotal point. We can continue devolving, or we can wind our way back to the sacred knowledge we once had by recovering the old ways, by reuniting with the life around us. In joining again with the all-life, we will begin a new journey. We can fight our way out of the vacuum in which we live. We can retrieve all that is our by right ~ and by obligation. Reunion is not a choice any more. Reunion is our only hope.
We start the journey that beckons by giving up our notion of man as master. We begin by acknowledging our place as part of ~ and not the reason for ~ life on this planet.
*Excerpts from “Shouting at the Wolf”, A Guide to Identifying and Warding Off EVIL in Every Day Life, by Anderson Reed
When we deny others the privilege of being their authentic self, without judgement, we most certainly cannot expect ourselves to receive this same privilege. We get what we give. I know deep down we all want to be recognized for the value we bring to this world. Our value added is no greater than any other… Let us embrace our unique individualities and allow space for others to embrace ours as well.
And the light shines in darkness, and darkness did not retain it. ~ John 1:5
Those who claim to worship Christ yet are proud, spiteful, jealous, cruel and unforgiving of others, ambitious for material goods, I declare to you that they have religion for outward appearances only and not in their hearts, God who sees everything will say: ” Those who know the truth and do not follow it is a hundredfold more guilty in the evil they do than the ignorant savage.”
“Progress is a condition of human nature and no one can prevent it. It is a living force that bad laws may hamper, but not smother. When these laws become incompatible, progress breaks them down and continues to do so until the laws of humankind match Divine justice, which wills the best for everyone, and until all laws made by the strong to the detriment of the weak are eradicated.”
What does the mission of incarnate spirits entail?
“Educating other incarnates, helping their advancement, and improving their institutions through direct, material means. Missions vary in scope and importance, and the individual who works as a farmer accomplishes a mission just as a politician or a teacher does. Everything in nature is connected and all spirits, while purifying themselves through incarnation, contribute to the accomplishment of God’s plans. Each of you has a mission because each of you can be useful in one way or another.”
Why is it acceptable to ask for criticism, yet not alright to ask for compliment? We’ve been ‘trained’ to seek the negative … in self, in others, in situations.
Self-trust.
Self-esteem.
There’s always someone to help us in this regard, to the positive, or to the contrary.
When we fully take responsibility for our actions, stop blaming our attitudes and character on past experiences, then we can claim our life.
We can choose the practices we wish to embody. If others are not okay with any of it, let them be. Honor yourself in the moment, every one of them.
If experience brings tough lessons, embrace them as thoroughly as possible to decrease the chances of a lesson needing to be relearned.
Recognize.
Accept,
Or release.
Once you are okay with every little quirk and habit, the rest doesn’t really matter, as long as no harm is coming to self, or any body.
