Happy New Year 2014~

I didn't write last year much it was a challenging year full of twists and turns. I do not want to write about the continuous dramas that were moving through the whole year. I do want to tell you I participated in the most expensive workshop I have ever enrolled in. It was a process to stay positive with every change or phone call. I call this my choice of not telling another sad story over & over but decided that served no purpose. Actually Mom moved in with me with ease after God pushed her to move forward. God has had an interesting hand in all the changes. The great process we knew that without a doubt we were not in charge trusting Creators choices often not quite understanding as they rolled along.  I do want to thank those who were my continual support. I kept my conversations as light as possible, or nothing about our situation from April on. I would run with my running partner chatting about other things I am grateful for the flowing friendship. I would go to spin with my regular group 2-3 times a week which kept me sane & kick boxing.  I am happy I don't drink that would have pushed me over the brink, (thinking about what Anne Lamont would say in the arm pit of life) By August everything had heated up and my son's wedding was looming in so Mom & I made up our mind to focus on the wedding to keep the JOY flowing for Josh & Lyndsey not uttering a word about the climax that was roaring in the back round. We came to Lyndsey's Mom to help prepare the food which was such a blessings and help with the flowers. Once the morning of the wedding  Sept. 21 arrived there was rain, then a down pour  focusing on how we could help was the main menu. The wedding came off in grand style people exclaiming it was the best wedding they had been at. In the pictures I look strained no matter how it is often it shows. In the spring I talked with my friend real estate Philip York he said I was handling this crazy situation pretty well but then once I received a foreclosure notice I contacted him he once again encouraged me to go  with a short sale? I was clueless after all the weird turns in the road this year. Which was great our bank guy Chris went along with it, Philip did a lot of necessary negotiations. I had a first offer they did every inspection necessary, even had a guy come who did it not even know guessing or recognizing our sump pumps with the french drain, they backed out out which were immediately came an offer from Dean & LuLu Blackburn who were thrilled to get our treasure unique building planning to put an antique store. My prayer was we would be out by 12-20. I had rented an office in September @ 407 Mt Shasta Blvd., Healing Waters so my wonderful clients were already comfortable with the change. One of our family traditions was going to the Nutcracker at the Opera House in San Francisco which was planned on the 12-15 with my daughter in-law and grand-daughter which was awesome. We arrived back Tuesday 12-17 at noon starting our closing sale. Then Wednesday lower our percentage it was really such a wonderful experience people bought gifts for Xmas that they normally wouldn't be able to afford but at this discount were very sweet and happy. There was a senior friend who bought makings for cleansing knowing without this huge discount she couldn't afford the items. Thursday we had awesome help from Ken Abbot taking over all that needed to move leaving some boxes he thought I would need. In that afternoon Steve Chase came helping pack up some of our large bottles bringing them home, putting them in those boxes Ken left, it was such a relief to finally be at this finish line. Giving books to Humane Society, New 2 U, and new books to Village Books. Then Friday coming in doing finishing touches, giving the keys over at high noon. The unfortunate thing is we were both sick but still felt ok through this.
     So you ask how did I keep positive well I wrote my gratitude list #3109, using the Magic Book as much as possible, meditation each and every morning knowing to keep the flow of positive was absolutely necessary and I can use this process with my clients knowing it works, also understanding at a soul level the discipline this all takes. Plus the continual exercise program no matter what of course eating well too!
 Actually it feels good to complete this 12 year journey being open to the next chapter. Mom is continuing our online store, then we had to redesign our web site which is completed which Steven Bosch helped but by being sick I had planned to complete it earlier but just couldn't happen. I am continuing my coaching, readings and planning Vision Quest for this year weather permitting. My running partner & I last year ran 5 races, this year plan to increase those by a few, started my new Vision Board that is still a work in progress, making magic now.

December 15, 2013 Nutcracker San Francisco Opera House 

What a year oh my!

Opening to Love, Healing and HEART energy!

Could anyone imagine that we would be in such a profound time of unity due to such a tragedy Newcastle Connecticut? We are moving into new era of Solstice for 20-21-22, 2012 many things have been predicted but the universal is Love http://www.birth2012.com making a commitment to be in love energy for those days, is that possible to keep ourselves that directed to positive thought no matter what? What I also find amazing that on so many broadcast news, people are opening with prayer, even with the 911 it was not as common. I also see the parents, children, friends sharing at such a profound level how this has effected each person. So in our preparation for this coming time we are forced to feel seeing news Castor's praying, priests and common folks. Isn't it beautiful to understand the power of prayer. I feel this year has been such a transition into the reality of new Now. I feel so lucky to be in a town with so many spiritual practises available. Last week on 12-12 I went to Kirtan with Sahadev there were 28 people with this beautiful altar and great songs. I looked around feeling very blessed to be in such a place with little or no energy on my part. This next week was expecting so much and so many however the Mountain had other ideas a blizzard. The main highway was closed off & on for 4 days so those people planning to be on the mountain couldn't make it town nor with the blizzard the lower gate to the mountain was closed. I went to meditation on Sunday 12-23,  Mom, me, and Pursha laughing at the joke of the mountain is in charge. I have experienced so many challenges, joys, confusion to even begin to understand I am not in charge in the spiritual journey here in Mt. Shasta. So now we are approaching the New Year, looking outside there are snow flurries, snow on the road actually quite white and beautiful for the rise in energy making most of us stay put dive deep inside. I have had some wonderful clients who are driven to be here and really are high beings I feel blessed to have such wonderful souls. I know in my heart of hearts the time we are gathering our tribe I feel blessed to be in such contact with such amazing people. As a store we have celebrated our 10 yr anniversary which was in June but now moving to a more financially stable position, plus having to re-fi which I am praying goes without a hitch. I guess we qualify for one of the Presidents new loans? We are just waiting for our appraisal which hopefully comes in at a right price? One never knows with the current economy. I know Mom & I both want to focus on our wonderful customers from all over the world being able to have more stock, more gatherings, more fun........so that being said we are having a prayer list with our local Pyramid Omaran saying prayers for the week from Xmas Eve till New Years Eve www.soulevolution.org. Having this store we have used every practise and modality to insure our own spiritual journey, supporting those we can plus letting go of those that are unwilling or unable to understand our journey some who regard themselves as very spiritual beings however limited they are. We still keep them in our prayers most can't understand what it is to have a small store during these times, after our work often we just go home to be quiet to regenerate our own soul. Mom & I feel at a loss sometimes not being able to replenish supplies as quickly as we would like to or to pay vendors as the bill comes in. I have to say our Vendors I am in gratitude for their support and understanding blessing them for that. So with the changes we are feeling in our hearts and moving into a time of understanding that has been predicted but still not quite understandable yet. So if you are reading this you are the ones they were talking about you are here to be part of this Grand time, thank you!

Eclipse, Full Moon, Divine Feminine,Knights Templar

As we move into this  magic are you having magic? Do you feel the shift that is unexplainable. People ask me what am I doing. Each time I seem to make a plan I am not sure where or what I need to do and with whom? At first I thought oh do a 24 hour drumming I approached a few people only to find if I do by myself it, but I feel this energy it is necessary to be a joint effort. Check out www.eraofpeace.org she has some great plans that make sense to me with the light energy an important part to be part of. I know various people are gathering here for big gathering, but still unsure of who that is? As a business we find out by word of mouth. I have suggested that the Chamber should have a disclaimer but a list of events for each group so not only other people would know but we would know also. This picture for me tells it all the merging of ancient knowledge with the divine feminine finally all coming together in a powerful but subtle way. I think people are hoping to be blown into the light however this energy is so light bound that it is acting like an extracting that which no longer fits pulling it out of each of use to bring back our own knowledge and sparkling energy while still going through the challenges of our earth struggles. I like those who are offering encouragement and upliftment not the dooms day astrology or any negative haven't we had that enough? It is such a powerful time we said we would do it now is our time, be willing to do our part take up the staff or drum, be that speaker or out there person to carry the energy necessary for the changes that are upon us. We work very hard to keep the Angels, Monks, Sages, Brother-hood around our store keeping what negativity we can at bay so that when people come in they feel the upliftment and energy necessary for healing. The only problem with that is they do but often are unwilling or unable to buy anything, which doesn't really help with our economic necessities. We use to have a wonderful man who would come in saying  I am buying to help with the rent, which he would spend at least $100 but he disappeared maybe because at times our supplies were low I don't know. We love our customers, those who just need healing and comfort we are definitely available. Lets just hang on tight to the energy decree what is in our hearts opening feel the love, compassion, and opening in such a deep human sensitive way, welling up with tears for what humanity has been going through for ages our time has shifted to the New Now, don't loose sight of that no matter what your human challenges are. Great Spirit is also encouraging that the change is here keep on trucking to the light of the divine. Drunvalo Melchizedek is also one who is very positive to the times that are upon us. We have had several folks come in the store that were on their way to his seminar in Sedona it is like they put their head in our door to let us know they are off to see him. I spent a week with him at Jeckle Island in the 1995 or so with other wonderful teachers Braden, Kenyon, Cornish, Stevens and Page it rocked preparing for where we are now. I bought a tee shirt white with turquoise Remember so here we are! I also want to thank Susan Holtzclaw for this picture, we had Ganesha but this replaced it with the Divine, plus the Templar reemergence knowledge thank you for this!

Eclipse 11-11 moving toward 12-21-2012

I haven't written for too long, so what are you contributing to this new NOW? Seems like more are awake ready for the appearance of Angels, manifestation, creation, using the common thought of meditation. Are you meditating? Exercising?Praying? Preparing for this time? It seems like the movement of our heart opening is so grand and profound now. Watching touching movements feeling the tears well up in our eyes is so powerful knowing something big is happening. We have new modalities of spiritual awareness with the new channels like Own creating a venue for media spiritual awareness in your own home by watching these awesome teaching in your own living room there is no longer any reason not to be touched by the spiritual knockings, plus the media. We create our own reality being with ourselves and being present with our family, friends, and those we touch passing through. I am very aware of how many are opting to leave as well. I feel very lucky to be part of the movement of these changes finally, I just thought I would be younger. I have been doing these practises since in my 20's finally it is a common talking. As I watch Own they are talking about early meditation, practise I took my 2 sons with me they have been meditating since they were very little. So do they do it now, no not at the moment. They were here in Mt Shasta at the Harmonic Convergence in 1987 with my Mom's first visit to here as well. It is only a matter of time when they will be once again be enlightened. They have been around some of the most profound Native teachers Charlie Thom/ Red Hawk plus many others. I feel very blessed to be part of the movement very early. I paid a price of being ridiculed and at risk for my beliefs back when getting a divorce not a lot of people doing these practises but now it is main stream which it is time. I see this time as powerful of the predictions but I am rather surprised at this week there are not as many people visiting this mountain as I would expect. Last year on the 11-11 there were lots of wonderful people here, with the eclipse and all going on I thought there would be many? I am hoping that from here on we as a town are enlightened by the mass so our town is blessed with many people going in our stores understanding what is really so powerful here.
  My friend Steve & I moved the wood we piled in readiness for next  year's Quest. This year we found  we had to move our site due to the fires that were around. The wood had been piled neatly by my Mom, 3 of us carrying it in wheel barrels then to find we were not using it. My concern was when the rains started it would be washed down stream not a good omen for the gift of wood. The first year doing the Quest here I had to cut, chain saw, have a crew for gathering then when the camp offered to provide the wood I am in deep gratitude so I don't want to miss use this gift. So Steve offered to help me pile the wood in a whole Mother nature provides behind a fallen tree, plus move our rocks that were gathered for the lodge. It is very important to honor the importance of the natural resources that are provide, disrespectful to not take care of this. I felt fortunate to have help once again, it flowed quickly and full of humor as we moved the wood with joy. I also found it interesting that we are already in preparation for next year which is a first. Lots of people don't really understand the importance of these signs of ceremony which we must follow the signs and the importance of respect to these lessons.

Fall Equinox/Earth Day

It is hard to believe I haven't written since July so much has happened in 2012. Some of what is happening is much different then most would expect for the illuminating year, many challenges, many changes. I had a successful Vision Quest, plus already posting for next year. Being that leader I too have quest issues, last minute had to change our site due to fires going on all around. It actually was closer to the cabin which made everything easier, however for a few hours a melt down for me. Once I was able regain my understanding of how spirit works then I could go with the flow. I had made great strides to be ahead of the group by having friends our cook David F. and Steve move an amazing amount of wood & rocks to our former site, so to find out I could use it that was part of the problem realizing my plans of being a head were not happening. It is lots of energy and work David & Steve did it with great humor and being completely there. Cedar who is the camp caretaker was suppose to help however had sprained her ankle but did give us water & peaches. David F & I went shopping to Redding before quest going to 3 stores to get our food, plan our menu, he was amazing shopping like I do. We arrived back in Mt Shasta at 12:30 pm. He was a humorous cook plus very willing to do anything I asked carried rocks you name it.
