Colonodyssey~WTF?

Intuitive drawing of my colon circa 2016

Is the third time a charm? I have safely emerged from hospitalization number three for diverticulitis. I went to the ER Sunday afternoon  May 14th and returned home on Tuesday May 16th. This past Thursday evening I felt worse and on Friday I had relentless chills and a feeling I was relapsing. I am back on antibiotics and my doctor is concerned about my recovery. I guess it is just as well that I never completed the Colonodyssey wrap-up post. Clearly this saga continues.

I have no great insights or epiphanies to report. I briefly looked for astrological transits and did not notice anything major. However, when I consider the solar house approach , where you place your Sun sign as the Ascendant  and use the whole sign house system, I shifted my perspective. I typically do not use this approach but it resonates for me strongly now. Placing my Scorpio sun as the Ascendant would give me an Aries 6th house of health and service. Uranus has been transiting there since 2010, which is when my health issues began to increase in frequency and intensity. I have been more focused on Uranus transiting my 2nd house of money and values in my traditional chart to consider this alternate system. But when Michael Lutin talks, I listen. He is a big fan of solar houses and when I read his site for Scorpio forecasts, he highlights health issues lately.

The whole house system ends where each sign ends so I have only until May 2018 to see a shift. At that point Uranus moves into my solar 7th house ( but remains in traditional 2nd house). The astrologers who read this will get it. For everyone else, here is the takeaway: There are always alternative explanations for any event or experience. As Matt Kahn says, each being is existing in its own unique reality or dimension where all is based on a range of frequencies. So wish as I might, to analyze everything to death, fugetaboutit.

I have been reading more about how to approach chronic and acute dis-ease in a more balanced way. I do resent that I have little control. I was planning a trip for my vacation week but stayed home due to medical and financial obstacles. On top of it all, my LCSW supervisor just informed me that she is ending our supervision later this month because of changes with her private practice. I am really beginning to question many of the recent decisions I have made lately. Little seems to stick in this reality that I am living in. Perhaps this is how it needs to be, but I find it frustrating.

I run a grief and loss group and I stress the importance of accepting and embracing change, letting in opportunities for growth and evolution. Sometimes I wonder if I am having this group so I can learn more myself. We do teach what we need to learn. I was watching Super Soul Sunday and the guest was saying how she encourages people to think about what is working, rather than what is going wrong. I use that technique in my group and thought it was my original idea, ha!

While I could complain about all that has happened the last few months ( years, decades), I rather be grateful for what remains after the dust settles. I keep learning more about myself and my attitudes and perceptions. I find joy in the small things. I can keep writing….

Namaste and thanks for your continued interest in my writing.

  1. Sorry this is coming so late, but as you may guess, I’ve just started coming back to blogging..lol.
    “I run a grief and loss group and I stress the importance of accepting and embracing change, letting in opportunities for growth and evolution.

A lot of time situations and people are presented to us to learn more of ourselves. I do hope that you are feeling better!
    Will be back to read the next blogs. Am using a new method of reading posts from email notifications – so I don’t miss much! Lol.

  2. Linda I am sorry that you have undergone hospitalisation again my friend.. But I can not help but think you are now on the right tracks within your thinking and approach in your star chart.. I do not profess to understand your amazing ability to read your charts , But I so sense a clearing of thoughts and a strength within your words I have not felt before..
    As if you are at last putting the final pieces of the puzzle together

    Maybe it is time to put to bed your drawing of 2016 and create a new one.. One in which you are free of this disease, as you have worked through your internal ‘organs’ of cleansing. Now its time to release once and for all..
    As you teach your class via your instincts.. Knowing that you are being shown how to let go of your own internal grieving. Centuries of life times hold themselves deep within our cores..

    I have been doing my own process of cleansing, and shedding.. Its been hard.. as I faced my own self, demons and had to admit to my past actions and actions of others.. SEEing things from a different perspective.. Is at last bringing me Peace.. As I see it is only I who am the biggest obstacle in loving myself..

    As I look into my eyes, I now see a clearer ME.. and that was what the rainbow light was mainly about.. As I sat.. contemplating.. All actions, past to present. through all life times, brought me to this moment..
    Its up to me to chose..
    The release is immense like a weight lifted… sorry has been helping me shift through these times.. as I cried, and cried for others and for myself.. All past wounds, sorrows of the innocents.. Yet even those I know chose their pathway.. Nothing and no one is ever lost..

    We are awakening now Linda.. And I sense a greater awakening within you..

    You said it yourself, as you said “I stress the importance of accepting and embracing change, letting in opportunities for growth and evolution. ”

    That time is now dawning Linda.. and I know you will come through this.. BELIEVE in YOU.. and Know you are WELL.. and that you do not need to hang onto the energies of the past that have twisted your insides within such pain..

    I Know all is well in your world when you have the faith to move through it and you have done so well lately , So create a new You.. Start with a new drawing of inspiration of wellness.. 💕💖💛😘xxx Much love my dear friend.. I feel already the spark within you ..

    1. Hi Sue, I reread your comment so I could take in its meaning. I am not certain how or in what way(s) you sense in clarity in me, but perhaps it is from your higher self. I do like the idea of putting this image to rest and creating something new. I am feeling some new energies coming in while more people are leaving my life and some health and financial challenges appear to linger. I am so happy to witness your evolution, please know this!

      love to you <3, Linda

      1. Keep embracing those new energies and people who come into your circle Linda.. And focus upon the benefits of those changes.. Allow if you are able to let go of your worry as to how your finances etc will cope.. But try to trust in knowing all will come together when the time is right. and those new energies will emerge for a brighter future of abundance and well being..
        Love and Mega hugs your way.
        And thank you for your lovely reply..
        Sue ❤

    1. Thanks Leigh for your support. I would like the waning to begin NOW, not 11 months from now, lol! In the meantime I am learning to trust myself more and to realize that either I am protected or I am not. What I mean here is that I must be willing to let things fall away and focus on what is in the present and have an understanding that all I encounter and embody is for my highest good, that nothing is being taken away or being wasted, and that we all are loved. ❤

  3. When life hands you lemons, make lemonade? Anyway, I hear lemons are great for diverticulitis (laughter is good medicine too). 😉 Seriously, hope you get to feeling better, ((((Linda))))! Much love and light, ~C
