What if it is really all okay ” underneath it all “, whether we enjoy, judge, understand, integrate, or resist the experience? About 30 years ago, a young man I was very smitten with, took me to one of his favorite bars. It was an awkward evening and my time with him proved to manifest plenty of awkward moments ahead. In any case, I found him to be wise and confident and took him waaay too seriously. But he said something in the bar in Upper Darby that still rings true now ( and oddly enough, I still remember it!) He simply told me, “life is here to experience. ” That sentence seemed a bit radical to me then, but not unpalatable or easily rejectable. We did not use words phrases like 3rd density or clear our fields but we were part of a group of friends who studied The Course and other spiritual teachings. I was down with his concept as long as I liked the experience. It is not designed that way.
I did not plan to write about that meeting in the bar. A lot more was said that evening, but that’s not fit for blogging! This story is included because I am working on relying more on my gut and intuition, using my intellect more as “backup. ”
This is my energy update and the forecast is stormy and humid with a chance of magick.
On previous layoffs, I have struggled with how to best spend my time. Often I was required to apply to jobs weekly as a condition to receive unemployment. This go-round there is no job search requirement. I look inside myself daily to determine what is meaningful, fun, and perhaps healing and/or geared towards awakening? I realize that this timeline we are in is so unusual and I want to use it well or have Source use me well. I hit a recent snag right after the Mercury station when my former manager asked me to come back to the office and hand in my keys and laptop. I became acutely aware of how much resentment I have accumulated towards him. This stems mostly from my disappointment that he was not the person I imagined him to be. This pattern often shows up when I compose a narrative around someone I hardly know and it turns out to be incorrect. I wanted him to be the creative, thoughtful, reflective person that I saw initially. He ended up treating me poorly and displayed anger, deceptive maneuvers, and condescension. I see my disappointment causing a strong aversion to meeting with him again. I do realize that my actions have also colored his interactions with me, but it still stings. I am considering writing a letter to him as a way to release my emotional baggage. This is a therapy technique I have used often in my work so I figure it can assist me in letting go of the past and accepting him and each moment as it is.
Almost 4 months into lockdown, my body has been suffering for most of it. Today I can report the “cold ” is improving, my toe hurts less, my skin inflammations are almost gone and my GI tract is rebounding from whatever happened yesterday. I wonder if I welcome illness to avoid responsibility or simply become unwell as my body works to rid itself of all the low frequency thought and experiences I take in? The answer could be neither or both, I do not know.
In any case, I am pleased to say this quarantine has not been just one extended sick day. I have noticed more lightness and laughter and have become more grateful for what I have and the people that I love.
I am also grateful that hydrangea grow outside my bedroom every other year. There is some regularly scheduled beauty in my world. Lovely hydrangea, there is a reason I choose you as my gravatar image.
Synchronicity Central ~ Friday I was getting breakfast at Dunkin and going there reminds me of life pre -COVID. On the way, I noticed a small green grasshopper/ cricket accompanying me on the passenger mirror! He looked just like the one from a couple weeks ago. I turn up the radio and enjoy cruising with this supercool companion! Later in the ride he migrates across the windshield. I did not have a chance to take a photo but he was similar to the cutie I found at the grocery store. While at the drive-through, I have a worry about catching Covid after the cashier is not wearing a mask and become anxious. After I leave Dunkin I turn the radio back on. An instrumental tune entitled Immunity begins playing! I am thinking ” wow, instant messaging, guide-style, yes! ”
Many talk about how it is more likely that our physical bodies move back and forth between 3D and 5D. I cannot speak for anyone else, but my ability to tap into Source has increased significantly during social distancing. Telepathy is more frequent and easily confirmed. The higher vibes usually occur when my mind is quiet and observant. Regular meditation via Headspace is one habit I intend to keep!
The bloom shown above is smiling. You will smile too if you read the announcements below. Please take a peek to get the latest scoop. Let me know how your energy is flowing?
Announcements:
Save yourself ~ If you are writing online, remember to save your work regularly. WordPress lately has this tendency to highlight and delete all my text. It happened again today while posting here and I did not save my work. I prayed for a solution and somehow autosave must have been operating, despite no indication of it under the Revisions section of the Editor.
Pay it Forward Deadline ~ I am enjoying reading for you and am glad to have a few more “in cue”. If you are still on the fence about getting a reading, decide by July 1, 2020. Please contact me here to book your free reading. Join the fun! Please contact me also if you want to write a Testimonial about a past or recent reading. The Testimonial page is getting a needed overhaul, waiting for new reviews. Thanks in advance for all the love and support!
Retro works ~ My intention during this Mercury retro season is to publish some posts “vacationing” in the drafts bin. I have been procrastinating writing anything complex and/or lengthy, waiting for my ideas to marinate. I see some of my material to be “timely” so I hope you can support me by encouraging me ( either actively or energetically) to bring this material out in the open.
Namaste dear ones
Sorry to hear of the difficulties with your employer, Linda. Your realization that you build-up an image of a person, which then results in disappointment, struck me as a powerful one. I think we do this all the time, really. We form these images of people based on our need or desire or whatever it is. I think the “quiet” of stepping back from things can help us see this. I am glad you are feeling better and enjoying the gifts of quarantine! It seems there are treasures in this time and space for all of us to discover–blooming right outside our bedroom windows!
Peace
Michael

Hi Michael, thanks for your insights and kindness of spirit. I agree with you that we do this often without much fanfare. Time and space can create the space for clarity, There is so much within that I am curious to discover. Now is the time to discard or transmute all no longer useful.
peace and health to you, Linda

Thank you dear Linda for your update of what is going on with you my friend..
I think you boss could learn a few things from your letter should you write it.. Such is the way with some boss’s though, they cannot see past their own noses..
Your Hydrangea is beautiful ours in our garden as still in very tight bud, and only one white one a white one is opening its blooms..
Loved your little passenger, and how he held on tight on your journey 🙂 And looking him up on Spirit Animal Guide he is good luck.. It says here Quote: “The grasshopper spirit animal is a symbol of good luck and prosperity because whatever is blocking your way to success, your grasshopper totem can remove. … This is a very exciting time because the grasshopper spirit animal means abundance and good luck.”…
So a happy omen Linda..
Thank you for your online writing tips to save work… I have had that happen several time and now no longer write straight into the Editor.. But use Word, and copy and paste..
Also another good tip is to download you whole website at given intervals, you do this by Exporting it.. It comes in a Zipped Folder… So if at any time your website gets compromised etc.. You can up load it again..
The tips on how to do that are here on Hughs Blog

Sending Love Linda.. Have a good weekend and I am happy your readings are going well also my friend..
Much love your way ❤

Hi Sue,
It is always a pleasure to read your lovely comments, I can feel the love <3. It is a therapy tool to write an "unsent" letter to those who you have unfinished business with, in order to forgive, heal, and move on. I have not written it yet, but need to do so soon to get my power back . It is my stuff with authority figures who I feel betrayed my trust, back to my parents. Big surprise, no! As much as we do the work, more glunk comes up. Thank you for the idea to export my site. I will have to get another usb drive in order to do this, I would imagine the zip file would be huge. I definitely would enjoy more abundance in a time where so many supplies are missing from store shelves and I learn to make do with less. It is a lesson indeed, but I rather learn from joy than lack.
Enjoy your weekend too! ❤

beautiful hydrangea linda! they seem to mirror your increased experience of laughter and lightness ❤ love hearing about your telepathy growing in depth! i feel more and more of this will continue to show up for people with all the shifts being integrated. i resonate much with what the young man shared with you those 30 some years ago: “life is here to experience” and i deeply believe there is no one way that's supposed to look. a sweet post!!

Thanks Tania. These lovely flowers have been showing up since I have lived here, but I did not appreciate them right away. The name means serpent and vessel, which really speaks to me , being a Scorpio type. I discovered my telepathic abilities as a teen but my abilities tend to vary over the years. I do value experience greatly, but sometimes wish I could have more designed to my “preference. ” I know more inner knowing helps with setting intentions imbued with emotion to seal the deal. ❤

Thanks Karin e for your positive comment. I have to admit the Immunity song really got my attention, it was so surprising! I think my joy from driving with the grasshopper put me in the flow and made the message come through. I enjoy telepathy and hope yours is also “online. ” 🙂
