Take a break and enjoy a quiet period. This time can be used to regroup, recover and stabilize yourself. It is wise to keep in mind the fact that this is for a limited period of time. You are pausing to regain your footing. As you evaluate your environment, check to see if you need to clear any ill with anyone. Ask for forgiveness and be willing to forgive as necessary to move forward. Enjoy this downtime. Acknowledge the importance of recharging your energy so you are refreshed and ready to tackle life and any challenges that come your way.

Nature holds all aspects of light. The light is the same brilliant light that shines out of every child while they are still in touch with the magic of the world and nature. Find the innocence of your childhood light within you and reconnect with it. This light represents your virtue and holds the memory of perfect trust, fearlessness in others and total self-reliance. It will allow you to see the world with the eyes of a child. You will be excited to learn new things every day. How much happier your world would be if everyone reconnected to his or her purest essence!

A new course or route is coming into your awareness. It is time to utilize your knowledge and complete the task at hand. As you finish one aspect of your life, begin thinking about what you would like to do next. This is part of your life’s journey – you are constantly shifting and developing. You may feel contentment, fulfillment and pride, because you have accomplished something. There is productivity and reward as a bonus for your efforts. The good fortune you realize is evidence that you are putting sufficient energy into your life’s journey to get out of it all you desire.

My Grandmother Once Gave Me A Tip

Published October 22, 2020 by tindertender

In difficult times, you move forward in small steps.
Do what you have to do, but little by little.
Don’t think about the future, or what may happen tomorrow.
Wash the dishes.
Remove the dust.
Write a letter.
Make a soup.
You see?
You are advancing step by step.
Take a step and stop.
Rest a little.
Praise yourself.
Take another step.
Then another.
You won’t notice, but your steps will grow more and more.
And the time will come when you can think about the future without crying.

Integrity ~ Drop the things that offend your soul. Embrace your truth. It’s your life, let no one live it for you.

I honor all that I am. I am always completely myself and that is enough. Today I will honor myself and my personal integrity and rise up in its power. I will embrace the greater part of me and live with sincerity and honor. I will be honest with myself, live a life of truth, and I will be free.

Humor ~ Laugh at yourself, lighten your heart. Let nothing steal your happiness.

Today I will focus on joy. I now see the good and happy moments that surround me and give thanks. I will not complain. Instead, I will laugh at the comedy of life and let nothing keep me from my happiness. I will let humor fill my heart with rainbows, fun fill my soul with stars, and dance even if it rains.

Dreamer ~ Your Dreams have chosen you. Find fulfillment in pursuing your destiny. This is the magic of life.

Today I will take time for the dreamer in me. I will remember that my dreams have a purpose and were given to me for a reason. I will not be misled by the opinions and doubts of others, for this is my journey and only I can know the way. I will focus on taking steps toward my dreams and I will never give up.

Embrace the need for solitude. Your inner sanctuary calls you. Renew yourself and thrive.

I realize deeply that this present moment is all I really have and that the NOW is my sanctuary. It has all the magic and happiness that I need. I let go of the past for I am not there. I let go of the future for it has not yet happened. I look within and find the peace and joy I seek in this divine moment and I will flourish.

Stop hesitating. Movement creates the magic. Nothing can hold you back.

I will focus my energy on moving forward without hesitation. I will get things done. My head and my heart are moving in the same direction. I won’t waste energy worrying about “what if’s” and “who says?” I will rise up, feel my power and be happy. Nothing can hold me back.

Remember the source of love. A loving action is all you need to begin the process. Reach out with a simple first step.

I will pause and remember those I have left behind, my lost loves, and broken relationships. I will be brave and take a step toward healing the past. I will reach out with silent love but will expect nothing. For I know the most important mending needs to take place in my own heart. Looking back, I am filled with gratitude. For the good we had I am filled with joy. I will give myself all of the love that I ever needed. I will heal the past and I will be free.

Something BIG must be happening

Published October 20, 2020 by tindertender

On a personal note …

The visitor log took a plunge today.

I had no idea this involved the entire globe. It is strange being judged by countries rather than individual people. I thought it was just a few folks, but no, it’s entire countries. No wonder they’ve been telling me to be very careful of what I say.

There are many aspects of the feminine under examination these days.

There once was a time when I thought to myself that there is no reason why I cannot get along with everybody. I can surely make efforts to that end.

It is unfortunate though that some lack capacity to accept people as they are … even I am having this issue. Yet I understand that accepting someone for who they are does not equate with sharing space with that someone.

We get to choose who and what we want in our life, what we will accept, or reject.

I am in process of reclaiming the energies I have spent on making others problems, my problems.

I am retraining myself to spend my attention and energies on promoting the things I desire in my life, things of benefit rather than drain.

~ A clean environment (whew! what a task!)
~ A nice, cozy and pretty place to rest my head at night.
~ Time to meditate and clear the head, making room for proper connections.
~ Art, painting, drawing, doing puzzles, creating blankets or what-nots.
~ Love … my pets are full of love, and they are hairy which makes the clean environment a task.

Repealing the energies given to another will be difficult, I do not care for being bitchy. So I focus instead on simply extracting myself and my efforts from the entanglement.

First here, then there.

I had no idea that settling for a situation could be so draining on potentials in life. Yet settling does just that.

When I was younger, if I did not care for a situation I removed myself from it. This time however, I need to pluck something from my environment, while staying put. It is difficult, especially when that something has become accustomed to a certain character performance by myself.

I never considered myself an enabler, until my subconscious picked up on it, insight gifted to me by those who wanted me to see. (Thank you).

I did not wish to follow in the path of my ancestors. Creating relationship, and then leaving it, only to start another. It does look like this is how it goes though …

I longed for steady, for the surety of it (whether it be relationship or dwelling), and I became the glue that held it all together. The one who worked at it so that it was stable.

It is now time to let it unravel though. I’m done pouring effort into something that will not improve, that will not advance the goodness in my life, no …. it only remains stagnant, feeding off what I agree to give.

I’ve come to the conclusion that it is I who needs my loving kindness and care … haha, do I even know what that looks like? I think not, and it is time to learn what it is, what it looks like, and what it feels like.

Yes, something BIG is happening.

They say the dead will walk the earth once more. This could be literal, which it may, and it could also mean that the sleeping herd of we, the sheeple, are waking up and understanding that we have been kept in a sort of limbo.

I know my future does not resemble the past 12 years … no, I’m aiming higher, rising to the occasion, at least, this is my intention.

I’m guessing this is happening in many minds right about now.

Realization …

After realization …

There is a ripple effect of energy flowing from you. Be positive. Simply staying happy and sending that happiness out from your heart will benefit those around you. As you adjust your motives and attitudes, this energy flows from you in concentric circles affecting all of your desires and beliefs. There is a chance to bring good fortune and influences to all of the events in your life. As circles always represent cycles, know that you are continually going in and out of cycles, growing and changing. With every ending comes a new beginning. Trust that the positive energy you radiate will attract what you wish for.

If you have a goal or vision, be sure to provide the right surroundings for that dream to flourish. Positive self talk, affirmations, being kind to yourself, celebrating your talents and successes – all of these create fertile soil for your dreams to take root and grow. Sometimes, when you push too hard it can hinder the harmonious unfolding of your journey. Trust the process, relax, and allow nature to take its course. Belief and positive support is needed to accomplish your goal. Keep in mind Nature makes growing and blossoming look effortless but the secret is in all the details – position, sun, soil, air, water and nourishment. Make sure you are taking the steps necessary to attain your perfect environment.

This image is a representation of the harmony of opposites, masculine and feminine. You have the ability to give love freely to yourself and to others. It is important to understand that you are whole, complete and perfect now and will enhance the life of another. Love can happen. Love is the truth of all situations. Love the soul embodied inside you. Express more love in your life and allow yourself to feel loved. Everything happens exactly when it is supposed to. In that order, everything that happens is supposed to take place. You bring a bright light and individuality into this world.

Shadow: Love that you are different ~ You have strengths and weaknesses, and both are worthy of love. Know them, honor them, and do not heed those who tell you that you must change in order to fulfill their expectation of you. You will never be who others expect you to be. You can only be the unique individual you are meant to be. Love that you are different for it is your differences, and loving those differences, that make you truly beautiful.

Soul: Surrender to the flow ~ Through Choice and action you can steer the course of your life. But sometimes a need to control every outcome can have you caught up in a whirlpool instead of moving forward. You may move in the direction of your choosing, but it may not be the direction in which you need to journey. Loosen your grip. Surrender yourself to the flow, and trust that you will find yourself exactly where you need to be.

Let Two Become One ~ Share yourself with the one that you love. Be their best friend and let them be yours. Let your trust in each other be unshakeable, and your love be strengthened by knowing and accepting each other’s flaws and weaknesses, and still loving each other despite them. Give yourself completely, trusting that you will not lose your independence or sense of self, but instead become two halves of a stronger, loving whole.

Through choice and action you can steer the course of your life. But sometimes a need to control every outcome can have you caught up in a whirlpool instead of moving forward. You may move in the direction of your choosing, but it may not be the direction in which you need to journey. Loosen your grip. Surrender yourself to the flow, and trust that you will find yourself exactly where you need to be.

Are you holding on to beliefs and notions that no longer serve you? Are you blocking your own growth and forward momentum because you fear to end a chapter in your life? It is time to release all that you hold onto that no longer serves. It is time to say goodbye to all that no longer has a place or purpose in your life. It’s time to have an emotional, or physical, spring clean. It’s time to let go of the past so you can be open to what the future may bring.

Magic is the mysterious and coincidental. It is at the heart of those moments of synchronicity and knowing. It is woven into the awareness that there is more to life than what you can see. It is born of that moment when you step without fear and walk with loving heart into the Void, once your desire, and have Great Spirit send his messengers to show you the way. Trust in Magic. It is real, and it surrounds you.

Stand Your Ground ~

Hold firm to what you believe in or are focusing on because it is absolutely right. Know that Heaven and Earth are supporting you.

If you’re feeling challenged or pressured, know that your spirit is more powerful than you think. You are resilient and grounded, and the energy and air of the mountains is giving you the unshakeable strength to be who you are. Take time to root yourself deeply in the energy of the Earth before welcoming in the energies of heaven.

You will be whole and well at the end of this current situation and it will not stand in the way of your future growth and expansion.

Affirmation 10-9-2020

Published October 9, 2020 by tindertender

Today is a day to focus on courage. I have the courage to make the decisions that must be made, to do the work that must be done, to face the things that must be faced. I summon the courage of the warrior and protector and manifest it in my life. I acknowledge the courage within myself and also honor the courage I see in others.
