Oracle Reading 5-28-2020

Published May 28, 2020 by tindertender

In this reading you can read the italicized portion for a more Earthly meaning, the non-italics for a more Spiritual meaning, or both for a larger picture.

Giving something a try is not making a lifelong obligation. You can switch, swap, and refine your interests, friends, lovers, career, plans, home as often as you like. If something doesn’t fit right, try something new, and if that doesn’t work out, try something else. What you are looking for could be around the next corner. There is no failure in moving on or starting over.

Listen. Your heart is calling. A thirsty heart cannot be quenched by logic; it must drink from the well of life and be replenished. Each time it breaks, it comes to hold more, but it’s essence does not change. Your heart holds your truth in every breath. What does it say? Listen, and you shall be reborn.

Avoid comparison. It’s neither too soon nor too late to claim your life for yourself. There is no right way to live your life. There is no wrong way or set pace to follow your path. Be wary of false markers. It is not always time to harvest. Without periods of rest, planning and nurture, there may be no harvest.

Like invisible wheels, the seasons of life move through an eternal cycle of death and rebirth. What appears to begin, rise, fall away and end is but a small part in an endless journey without any clear start or climax. In the bright stillness of the divine mind, every journey flows through love. This is your journey, your time, your season. Shine!

All energy can be harnessed and used in myriad of ways. Just as elite athletes learn to use nervous energy to better their performance, it is up to you to draw energy stored in a negative experience to fuel your motivation, determination or creativity. Use whatever life sends you to your advantage. You can sit on the potential within you, or you can release it. It is your choice. This is not a matter of circumstance, ability or worthiness. Convert a possibility into a reality.

Through grace and love, we continue to transform. Nothing we do is lost or forgotten. As we release our hidden potentials, we create our destiny. One day we shall become stars. Through this process, many future Earths shall be born where we can live as one in the arms of the Divine Mother. The ground you walk on, the rain that falls, her love is stored in everything.

Insight: Energy cannot be created or destroyed. It cannot appear from nowhere, nor can it disappear. All objects contain stored energy. This energy is measured in terms of its capacity or potential. Coal has the capacity to create heat. A stationary rock could roll downhill at a certain speed for a certain distance. The energy in running water has the potential to charge batteries. The potential is there, but the stored energy may sit dormant for millennia without ever being converted or utilized. This energy is neither negative or positive, but it can be used in any number of ways. Electricity can be used to hurt or return someone to life. There is potential in everything … in your memories, your hopes, your doubts, your strengths. How you use them is up to you.

Form and Future

Published May 27, 2020 by tindertender

Just because the physical form may be contaminated, or broken somehow, does NOT make you garbage!

You are beyond physical form.

There are many “viruses” which can pollute the body. If by chance you catch one, it does not reflect on your character so much as habits.

Pick yourself up.

You are still whole and healthy in Spirit, should you do the work required to become so.

Form comes and goes.

Spirit remains.

Do not judge yourself if your physical form succumbs to the diseases of this world.

Focus on your energy.

Clean it up as purely as possible.

Grow it.

Leave the idea of ‘form’ behind and shift perspective into the whole, which is beyond physical relationship.

Stop judging yourself harshly for those things you cannot change.

Do the work.

Build your new future.

All will come into alignment.

Oracle Reading 5-27-2020

Published May 27, 2020 by tindertender

It is time for a fresh start. One cycle ends; and a new one begins. Rejoice: a new you emerges! You are blossoming.

Goddess Eostre,

You of the spring and the light,

I ask for a fresh start,

A new beginning, to take flight.

It’s time to think big. You are a star in your own right. There are unlimited possibilities. It is fine not to know every detail before proceeding. Mystery is a natural part of life.

You have power, and it is real. A secret will be revealed. You have an unexpected ally. Seek the truth. Try some magic!

Today Will Be Awesome

Published May 26, 2020 by tindertender

First morning intentions are important.

Wake up late? Just get going, don’t let stress take over your nervous system. Slow down, you’ll get there when you get there. If you get fired, it only means its time to forge ahead on a new path, new beginnings.

Embrace opportunity to control your energetic output. Use it deliberately, fully conscious and aware.

What we put into the world multiplies.

Use your creatorship, your power, authority and leadership to generate a smoother, nicer future.

It is your carefully managed output that will generate the New Earth.

Why Worry?

Published May 26, 2020 by tindertender

You have seen your own strength.

You have seen your own beauty.

You have seen your golden wings.

Of anything less, why do you worry?

You are in truth the soul, of the soul, of the soul.

Meditation On The Inner Kingdom

Published May 25, 2020 by tindertender

Consciousness must be pivoted at the inmost point of ones being. Each man has a private door opening onto the eternal brightness. If he will not press and push it open, his darkness is self-doomed.

The Art of Interrogative Self-Reflection

When you have wakened in the morning and bathed, the first duty – and usually the most neglected one – confronting you is to “plug in” to your true self.

Seek the Kingdom of God within you.

There exists deep psychological reasons for this counsel. We can set the keynote of the entire days activities by the attitude adopted during the first hour after waking from sleep.

Whether we give five minutes or five hours to this practice of life-inspiring, it never fails to produce remarkable rewards in the long run.

Do this for ten minutes to half an hour once or twice a day.

Meditation will produce most results by being regular every day, rather than in fits and starts, because it is something that gradually “soaks in” by repeated daily efforts.

The daily practice of mental quiet must be done as regularly as eating. Habit rules our lives. The man who has learnt the secret of creating habits is able to control that which controls his life. And the best habit a man can make is that of meditation.

I would not only emphasize, but over-emphasize the astonishing value and urgent necessity of this habit. You will find in time that the daily period of mental quiet will become a looked-for joy, instead of a disciplinary duty, as it might seem at first, and you will allow nothing to interfere with it.

The Secret Path, by Paul Brunton

Core Of Man

Published May 25, 2020 by tindertender

Unseen but seeing, unheard but hearing, unperceived but perceiving, unknown but knowing … This is thy Self, the ruler within, the immortal.

~ One of India’s ancient seers

……………………………………..

O I could sing such grandeur’s and glories about you!

You have not known what you are, you have slumbered upon yourself all your life.

The mockeries are not you;

Underneath them and within them I see you lurk.

Whoever you are, claim your own.

~ Walt Whitman, from Leaves of Grass

……………………………………..

Man, as he really is, and as he eternally has been and shall be, is a spiritual being. Life in the physical body does not detract from the truth of this statement.

Heaven lies all about us, not only during the innocent days of infancy, but every moment of existence, yet we know it not.

It is somewhat ironical that mans very self – his true nature – has become a secret in these days.

Wrapped in the folds of our own nature hides a rare jewel, though we know it not. None has dared to set a price upon it, nor will any ever dare to do so, for its value is beyond all things of known worth.

~ Excerpts from “The Secret Path” by Paul Brunton

We Are We, God In Man

Published May 25, 2020 by tindertender

But what thing dost thou now,

Looking Godward, to cry,

“I am I, thou art thou,

I am low, thou art high?”

I am thou, whom thou seekest to find him.

Find thou but thyself, thou art I.

O my sons, O too dutiful

Towards Gods not of me,

Was not I enough beautiful?

Was it hard to be free?

For behold, I am with you and in you and of you;

Look forth now, and see.

Get You A Girl

Published May 25, 2020 by tindertender

Written by Maria Palumbo: https://www.facebook.com/maria.palumbo.loves; https://mariapalumbo.com/

Get you a girl

Whose life is bigger than you.

It will keep you hooked for life and keep you dizzy. Gasping for air at times from delight and ecstasy and other times from pure terror.

Get you a girl

Whose lifeline is not you

Who has a therapist, a coach, a community of powerful women committed to telling her the truth, to helping her see, to helping her love herself and you the best that you both deserve.

Who does not come to you hoping you will fix her emotions, give her what she wants to, “feel better,” but only comes to you clear in who she is and what she needs and gives you the honor of meeting her there or not.

Get you a girl

Who is not confused about how she feels, does not throw up walls and defenses, isn’t hot one day and cold the next because she knows she wants YOU and she always pursues the things she wants.

Get you a girl

Whose dreams are bigger than the ones you dream with her. That her purpose for her life includes you but is not you alone, and you can feel her fire and joy and the impact that she is making.

Get you a girl

Who is happy, alive, turned on, with or without you.

Get you a girl

Who listens to you and values you and keeps you on solid ground. You do not have to worry about where you stand, you are never unsure of how things will turn out with her.

You always know.

Get you a girl who values her well-being more than she values anything else. For you can trust that the woman you are loving is the woman that she is.

Get you a girl

Whose thirst for knowledge, growth, for self-awareness, for being the best human she can possibly be, outweighs whether or not you are happy with her. She does not cause drama nor is she callous and she is always deeply true to who she is.

Get you a girl

Who will tell you the truth when others will placate you. Who will push you when others would control you. Who will piss you off and make you wonder about the sea of spiritual barbie dolls who really don’t challenge you all that much. Make you wonder if it would be easier over there.

Get you a girl

You can’t ever leave, even when you want to run. Even if someone with better t*ts

smile

brain

attitude

Comes waltzing in. Because nothing compares to the thing you have and you know it deep in your bones.

She is irresistible and knows this too.

Get you a girl who you get to enjoy the overflow of her love affair with life and not for one moment think you are the reason for her happiness.

She will change your life.
