This Week's Oracle Card: Quiet Time

You need some time alone....

The Healing with the Fairies Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue

"Quiet Time ~ You need some time alone, away from other people and environmental noises. Even a brief respite would be extremely rejuvenating for you. Sometimes we are not even cognizant of the detrimental impact of stress in our life. We become so accustomed to living in an uproar that we are not aware when our body is telling us that it is on overload. The symptoms include illness, unusual fatigue, depression or anxiety, appetite and weight issues, addictions, sleep disorders, irritability, and a desire to withdraw from life. You are now being asked to honor your body and soul by spending some quiet time alone - as soon as possible. This might mean going on a silent retreat; spending the day at a lake or beach, or in the mountains; taking a hike; or visiting a day spa. You coud even turn off your phone; put a 'Do Not Disturb' sign on your door; and take an afternoon nap, a long bubble bath, or read your favorite book. Regardless of the form that your quiet time takes, the fairies just ask that you keep this promise to yourself without delay. Affirmation: I now give myself permission to be silent within and without. My mind is quiet, and I enjoy my own company."

 

Oh no! Due to some water damage, WE WILL BE CLOSED TOMORROW (Saturday the 14th), for repairs. Sorry for any inconvenience. Please send well wishes and good juju to our roof. Hope this finds you in the best of times. Beauty in All Things, Blue Moon Gifts

This Week's Oracle Card: Positive Change 

Paravati....

  

 

The Ascended Masters Oracle Cards by Doreen Virtue

  

"Your likes and dislikes have changed, and you've outgrown situations that once appealed to you. These are positive developments signaling your spiritual growth. Some of these situations are blessings in disguise, as they're pushing you to make necessary and positive changes. You may feel pushed beyond your comfort zone as multiple areas of your life shift and flux, yet the universe always stands ready to support you with whatever you ask for. Let go and enjoy this ride, because it truly is for the best. Additional meanings for this card:   * Let go of procrastination or perfectionism   * Break your goals into baby steps and take one step at a time   * This could be a message to retreat or move to the mountains   * Revamp your schedule so that you devote regular time to your priorities   * Be assertive in saying no to anything that diverts you from your path. Paravati (sometimes spelled Parvati) is the Hindu goddess of mountains, marriage, and households. Legend says that Shiva the Hindu god was grief stricken following the death of his first love, Sati, so he retreated to a mountain cave. When Paravati was born in the mountains, Shiva fell in love with her devotion to helping the planet. They became united in love and had a son, Ganesh. Call upon Paravati for solace and solutions to any seeming problem, especially if you're meditating in the mountains."

Learning about the Opossum totem reminds me of my high school volleyball coach's wise motivational speeches. His favorite one (or at least the one he had to use most often with our group) was "Fake it 'till you make it." Some days we were up at dawn, in a bus for hours and just too tired to get excited about playing. Opossum teaches that we can 'fake it' to make it though the situation ahead.

Joy & PeaceFULLness,

Rainbow....

  

 

The Earth Magic Oracle Cards by Steven Farmer

  

"A rainbow is created by the collaboration of sunlight and water in the atmosphere. The water droplets become tiny prisms that collectively diffuse and disperse light into a ribbon of colors that is the essence of every hue we're capable of perceiving on this planet. Rainbows symbolize many things, including good luck, a bridge to heaven, and abundance. The storm has passed, and it is time to enjoy the refreshing beauty of this cycle, even though it has been difficult to appreciate any sense of purposefulness in what you have endured lately. You can now, as they say, count your blessings. Do not just look at the "brighter side" adhering to some academic mantra that has no heart or depth, but do so slowly and with genuine gratitude that is expressed up close and personal."

     

Happy Blue Moon!!! Hope you spend some time sending love to that beautiful light in our evening sky. In Native traditions the moon is often referred to as Grandmother. Let's reflect on that as we soak up this blessing of a 2nd full moon in one month. Consider doing something nice for a grandmother, whether she is still with us or she has gone home and is looking down upon us with love.

The end of the day is coming quickly so frog wants to stay with us a little longer and go out with the email today... look for opossum energy to enter your life in September.

Full Blue Moon Blessings,

This Week's Oracle Card: Let Friends Help...    

Ask for and accept support....

  

 

The NEW Romance Angel Cards by Doreen Virtue 

  

"This card is a signal that you'd benefit from spending quality time with your friends. If you're currently in a relationship, you will get renewed enthusiasm by having regular outings with good friends. If you're single, then spending time with these special people will get you out of the house, and bring fresh energy." "LET YOUR FRIENDS HELP YOU - Ask for and accept support from others. The Romance Angels are helping you via other people, to the degree that you'll allow this assistance to occur. This card indicates that you need to be more willing to ask for guidance, especially within the context of your love life. For instance, discuss your feelings, hopes, and dreams. Then, allow others to help you. Perhaps they'll offer support, give advice, or even know of a potential partner among their acquaintances."

     

Wow! August is flying by!!! Don't forget the Blue Moon next Friday. Set out some water in the moonlight and catch up some of that Blue Moon energy.

Bright Blissful Joy,
