Everyday Bliss

This is the one night of the year that neo-Pagans, Wiccans, Druids and others who look into the world of spirit, can commune directly with their beloved dearly departed. I wish all of the old faiths a very satisfying and fulfilling Samhain. Fly high, fly free!

In moments, my family will prepare a White Supper to share with our dearly departed, similar to the way Mexican families in our area take picnics to the graveyard in celebration of Dia de Los Muertos (Day of the Dead). This one time a year we can eat with and rejoice in the company of our deceased, in spirit at least, both the long dead and those who have just passed on this year. We rejoice in reuniting with those long gone like my grandmother and mother, and my husband’s mother, and have a chance for a final goodbye and let go of those just recently gone. In February, you may remember that my beloved Maine Coon ladycat The Biscuit departed this earth plane, as well as my spiritual father and shamanic mentor, (Corliss R.) “d” deLarm in January. Tonight the drums will sound deep in the darkness and plates heaped high with white foods for the Beloved Dead will go uneaten…by living humans. Tonight we will scry for deeper meaning and the future. Tonight wyrd will be woven.

A Hail to the Mighty Dead – from whom we come and into whose arms we all will go. Peace be unto them, may they proceed to fuller and richer lives. Peace be unto us all!

And a Blessed Samhain….

So much has happened since last I wrote here. We are in the semi-hectic phase of fixing up our house just prior to showing it for sale. Painting, sanding, bracing, replacing, nailing, containerizing and cleaning bracket my day and take up much of the mid-section as well. I thought we’d kept it rather well but gosh! Such a lot to do when scrutinized by sister Lan’s experienced realtor’s eye. In addition, we clean house in preparation for Samhain, the Celtic New Year and the most magical night of the year.

When we have reached a more peaceful place, I will write more, but until then, if you’re interested in “mythologically correct” information on Halloween/Samhain, please visit: Mike Nichol’s “Wheel of the Year” website

I have been having coffee with Thedy and discussing the work of Caroline Myss. Thedy was lucky enough to obtain an apprenticeship with Caroline and his energized talk of it has catalyzed movement at home as we’ve packed videos for our impending house sale. I pulled out Caroline’s Energetics of Healing videos and have been watching them. Very enlightening. This is something I suggest you watch at one year intervals to see how much further up the chakra chain you’ve come. They scare some people. I have friends who absolutely won’t watch them – Caroline definitely nails you to the wall and kicks your butt to Boise and back. But she speaks a Truth and that is very attractive. After listening to her wax lyric about the upper three chakras, I began thinking about why those friends of mine won’t view these videos with me who will view everything from comedy to horror on other days of the week. Why was I initially unable to finish watching when I first got the videos. Because she was kicking my butt hard and having other things to worry about at the time, I didn’t want the extra reminders of my deficits. But it was exactly the thing I needed which is why I returned, at several year intervals to this set of teachings and have been pleased to see that I am actually progressing in life.

Being made aware of one’s deficits is an attack on the very existence of that organizing force which drives most us – the ego. When we choose to rage and suffer from the gift of increased awareness of our deficits, we are really choosing to live small. Everything in life sometimes, conspires to remind us of how we aren’t perfect and how much we have to improve. If we let this information crush us and make us resentful, we are narrowing our ability to grow and change into the awesome person you really want to be. If we do not put parameters on how much change and improvement we can take, we will continue to grow and such reminders of imperfection will not be a bother to us – they will merely be a thing to be grateful for like the pop-up alarms in our calendering software. When you get one of these coming into your sphere, in the form of a friend, fellow worker or family member “kicking your butt” about something you know deep down in your heart of hearts is something you need to improve on, consider it an opportunity to add another few feathers to your wings.

If you keep doing this, you will feel lighter and lighter as you make the changes that free who you really are. And one day, you will remember what it is like to fly. And then, you will…

“Mixed-Media” Borrowing Benefits PUBLIC TELEGATHERING: I will be hosting an International FREE PUBLIC telegathering using a “mixed-media” palette of Energy Patterning Techniques at 6pm Pacific/9pm Eastern on Monday the 18th of October.

This telegathering is for people who already know how to apply EFT, and/or BSFF and/or TAT to themselves who want to get in on a “Borrowing Benefits” style group problem-releasing session. If you’d like to learn, there is a quick tutorial here that will get you started. Keep this one open during the telegathering or refer to chapters #3 through #7 in the Quantum Flow Bioenergetics: Be Your Own Healer videos or book, so you’ll know which places to tap, cue or hold as we work.

Why? Have you ever wanted to ask an Energy Coach and Therapist a question and get it answered? Want to hear what I sound like, or observe this crazy stuff in action? Wanna drop the dross and get lighter – and all in the hour between drinks and dinner? This would be the place. Be there or…be healed anyway! [grins]
