Solstice Gifts

The longest night arrives at our doorstep . In the flickering Light of our heart’s fire we collect our deeds and thoughts for evaluation.

What we will take with us in the New Year? What dreams are germinating ?

For the last few days it felt as if we are floating in new waters of creation. There are no maps for our journeys ; only stars , rocks and garden omens. In the sun light I feel the warmth of a promise:  Spring . It is too young and yet strong enough of an idea to Hope.

This is the time when tucked in by the fire we look for meaning in every small thing. I usually pick some cards while I  scout answers, validations or direction .Today in Gratitude for all who followed my humble thread of thoughts and those so kind to stop by I picked two cards from my favorite Sacred Geometry deck.

” Piercing the Vail  – Self Awareness.Seeking Wisdom”

“This card suggests that you are in a quest of greater understanding of your life path. Imagine that you travel with this shaman into the geometry and into your own pursuit of self awareness.Gaze past the veils of ego and delusion. Let it be your intention to move beyond these limitations and into your own personal truth. Courageously step forward and pursue the the way of wisdom.”

“Fruit of Life -Abundance.Manifestation”

” In all things abundant there exists nourishment that feeds your needs and offers you the opportunity to be of service. The maxim As you give , so shall you receive is absolutely true from the standpoint of your current situation. The message is one of unselfishly sharing. Sharing your abundance is sharing the Light . ”

The meaning explanation for both was a lot longer . However I think just the last passages are straight to the point. We will all read and take away that which is our own unique gift and yet collectively we will share the same truth. As we step in a new year and new energies we will probably find out there is no separation ,compassion is a jewel,kindness will open doors and generosity will enrich everyone.

Wishing you all a Blessed Solstice and Happy Holidays

From my heart to yours

Saw Love , Harvest Beauty

Sometime early in March I bought these Hyacinth bulbs in a glass vase from the supermarket. They bloomed on my window seal smelling heavenly and easing my winter blues.

When their time passed I put them in a Hypertufa planter I made some time ago.

As I laid them to rest  in the fresh soil  I said a prayer and loved them once more for their presence and without any expectations kissed them goodbye.

Few days ago I watched them in awe blooming in despite the freezing temperatures we have experienced lately.

I felt as if Nature was gifting me for a good deed . According to Tess Whitehurst   Hyacinths  represent” Abundance and Luxury, Attracting Gifts, Charm and Irresistibility, Glamour, Influence” . Just in time for the Holidays.

In another description of these flowers I found out its pink color  invites one to playfulness and recreation. And oh yes after a hard working summer I so needed to hear this. It never ceases to amaze me how Gaia delivers the medicine you need, always. I craved playtime for months and just when I forgot to smile the cycle of Gratitude bloomed with wisdom and beauty in my heart again.

What messages are you getting? Do you listen ? Nature is in constant dialog with us.

It is time we pay attention.

 

Full Moon Miracles

Yesterday I gave a friend a ride and took the back streets to return home . In the corner of my eye i saw a potter’s wheel on the curb . Didn’t stop but my heart was screaming : “GO BACK”

For about ten years I have been secretly wishing for one . Sometimes the wishing was more intense and sometimes faded in my daily dance with life.

This morning  basked in the Full Moon’s energy I woke up and the first thing on my mind was the potter’s wheel . I imagined myself having loads of fun with it . In despite the rain I jumped in the car and thought : “what are the chances I will find it again? ”

Sure enough it was waiting for me soaked by rain. I drained it ,wiped it clean and took it away feeling grateful.

Dreams do come true . Just keep them alive in your heart .

Coincidently I was walking through the garden yesterday and noticed the woodchuck made huge mounds of clay while cleaning his borrow. I always like to think the signs are coming together in the most magical way.
