Super Excited!!!

30/6/2011

 

You will soon break the bow if you keep it always stretched.

29/6/2011

 
Jamie is singing my heart's song with today's Wishcasting

A song it was singing well before my daughter left

Now with more urgency

I'm feeling stretched thin

As Bilbo Baggins said in the Fellowship of the Ring movie
"like butter scraped over too much bread"

So I wish to just take a break and give myself some space

Space to commune with Goddess

Space to receive guidance on what's to come next

Picture
Space for magic and miracles

Space to really enjoy being with my son

Space to play and wiggle our toes in the sand

Believing I'm the kind of person my dog thinks I am

My dog thinks I'm the most amazing person she knows.

If I leave the room, she comes to see what miracles I'm preforming.

She waits patiently for me to give her a bit of attention.

She drapes herself around my shoulders and sighs with contentment whenever I sit down to knit. 

She sits at my feet as I spend seemingly endless hours online

She dances with delight every time I return from a long or short trip.

Even when I make mistakes

Even when I'm not kind to others

Even when I'm not gentle with myself

She loves me unconditionally and thinks I hang the moon. 

If I'm the kind of person my dog thinks I am

That means I'm an incredible, marvelous person

capable of wonderful, outstanding things.

If that's true, why is it so hard to believe that of myself?

Could it be my self love reserves are running low? 

Self love can be a very confusing concept to grasp as people
often feel conflicted between it and egotism.

I don't want to be thought of as egotistic

So I minimize my accomplishments.

I deflect complements or deny them all together

I put myself in a victim state

A state that weakens me and disconnects me from Goddess
(God/Great Spirit/ Source)

I know people who constantly talk about themselves.   
I'm sure you know them too.

What I've learned working with Aphrodite on self love is

that person that who talks about herself constantly
isn't filled with self love. 

That person is trying to fill herself looking to outside resources.

That person is saying no one else cares about me

and there isn't enough love in the world.

That person probably believes she will never have the love she needs

I didn't want to be that person

So I worked at it and came to realize self love truly is
a gift that honors me and my spiritual source.

And by honoring myself, I learned to honor the uniqueness of others
and my connection to them.

But it's not a one time thing.

I continually work with Aphrodite

and practice honoring myself with the gift of self love.

Honoring myself  for who I am right now

in all of my imperfect perfection.

And believe I truly am the kind of person

My dog thinks I am

Will you join me dear one?

Today is the day

27/6/2011

 
I put my daughter on a plane today for her foreign
exchange trip to Japan.

Her first solo adventure.

I'm feeling very introspective about the whole thing

My baby is starting to fly (literally and figuratively) on her own

It's been her and me going places, sharing experiences
for 18 years

I've given her everything I could think of for her trip

Everything I could find to add to her medicine bag

Everything that worked for me

Gave her space to figure out what works best for her

And asked Goddess to give her the rest

Encouraged her to let go of what didn't serve her

While watching with pride as she grew
Picture
My Daughter Josephine
Now she's off to see the world

Unfolding her amazing wings

And sharing her beauty with the world

May Isis wrap her wings around you my daughter

And guide you as you begin this new life journey.
