I’ll be packing this morning getting ready for a three day run to the city and leave shortly after writing this blog.  When I understand Moon energy while I’m away, it is easy to decide on what clothes to take.  I learned a long time ago that if I would wear the colors of the Moon sign shifting through the heavens, I simply feel a whole lot better.  That’s the mind-body-spirit-emotion connection.  For example today, the Moon is in Leo so if I wear red, then I will be synchronized with that Leo fire energy.  However, tomorrow the Moon shifts to Virgo, so some shade of green is more appropriate.  Simple.  I pack two colors then.

Last year I tried to be efficient with packing for the 2 weeks we were away on holidays.  I took only my two favorite colors of pink and blue.  It was a disastrous experiment that I will never repeat.  I felt uneasy many days, for no good reason other than the colors, I was wearing were not in synchronization with the Moon’s glow.  This year, I know at the very least, I have to have colors that go with fire, earth, air and water.

I’m hearing some of you nay sayers, telling me I’ve totally lost my mind marbles.  Most of you are men.  So you especially need to listen up and learn.  People are ultra sensitive to color when they don’t even know it.  Psychologists have known this for years.  Whole businesses have developed around the color industry as a result.  Here’s what we know to be true. 

Just wearing a color next to the skin changes a person’s demeanor.  Having someone sit on a specific color, changes their behavior.  For example, most fast food restaurants have brightly painted reds and oranges on the walls and on their seats.  Why?  Well people get antsy with red and orange so they won’t stay in the restaurant very long.  That helps turn over customers more quickly.   Most modern day prisons have learned to use pink walls where the prisoners are likely to congregate the most.  Why? Because pink literally softens people and calms them down. They become less aggressive.  So real men can wear pink!

My hubby and I are high energy people shimmering with red fiery energy.  I have colored our entire house to be in different shades of blues, greens and purples.  Why?  So that when we are home we are totally in calm, relaxation mode.  Reds, oranges and yellows just turn us on and spins us around so that we are zooming with our thoughts and with our actions.  I won’t even allow red orange or yellow flowers in the house!  If I have to be extra assertive, I wear red.  Watch out for those Red Hat Society ladies!

Now you ask me and I tell you it has to do with energy.  Each color vibrates with a different frequency.  Each color is attached to your chi energy or your chakra energy.  Even by carrying crystals in your pocket with the color of the day will help you be on your way to being in synchronization with the Moon energy.  Men, your shirts and ties will do it for you!  For heaven’s sake watch out for the color of your underwear!

Now that you understand people’s psychological underpinnings, Color your world with the Moon’s flow.  You’ll be happier when you do!  Oh yah … Moments of Color Joy!

Reflection Questions! 

1.  Do a one month Lunar Cycle test and see how the Moon shift in color affects your behavior and feelings.

Affirmations and Intentions:  I intend to wear colors in synchronization with the energy flow of today. 

When you’re ‘happy for no reason,’

you bring happiness to your everyday experiences

rather than try to extract happiness from them.

It’s not that your life always looks perfect –

it’s that however it looks, you’ll still be happy!”

It boggles my mind to find that so many people live in the achievements of their past.  That tells me they do not feel successful in moving forward with today. Instead they remained bogged down or mired in the muck of yesterday’s story.  Hello … that’s old news for your life.   How about the glorious achievements of today?  Every day your life should be filled with New NOW stories that you can share with others.  The Law of Energy Attraction and quantum physics tells us that what we focus on is what we manifest for our lives.  If you are focused on yesterday’s story, you will never move forward with today’s story or your life story for tomorrow. 

Yah but how do you change yourself to do this?  Here are 4 strategies to begin telling your today’s stories. 

1. Examine your day and find a humorous story about your actions.
2. Find something that touched you emotionally today.
3. Reframe your day looking for something positive that happened to you.
4. Decide you have angels in your everyday life.  Who was your angel today?

Reflection Questions! 

1. Are you telling New NOW stories for your life?
2. Is your energy focused on the positive experiences of your life? 

Affirmations and Intentions:  I intend to focus on telling today’s positive Life Story.

“If you think you have a problem,

accept that your belief systems (thoughts),
are giving you trouble, not the world.”

The Positive Pie is a Tool or Strategy to help you on your journey to shifting your thinking.  A friend taught me this some time ago as something she had read.  I’m sorry I don’t know the original source.  It certainly has helped me to reframe loads of stuff!

Step 1:  Draw 2 circles with a small circle in the middle and the larger circle outside … like a pie only a circle in the middle.

Step 2:  In the inner circle put the FEELING you want to manifest in your life. 

Step 3:  In the outer circle, divide it up into 8 pieces of the pie.  Depending on what I’m doing, I’ve created a template for an 8 piece pie.  I label each of the pieces 1 to 8. 

Step 4:  I then write in each piece where I already have that feeling I want to have pervade my life.  For me, feelings of contentedness and joy in being on my path was a huge destination.  That went in the smaller centre circle of my pie.

Step 5:  In each of the outer pieces I then jotted down WHEN, WHERE I already experience that feeling or that energy.  Whenever negative thoughts crept in, I grab my pie and read where in 8 different places I already know I have that positive energy.  It literally waters down the negative feeling since you KNOW you already are doing it. 

Step 6:  I then tell myself to STOP thinking in the negative and again reread where I already have this manifest in my life. 

Step 7:  It is when we focus our energy on the positive that we will bring more of the positive into our lives.  So I ensure that this feeling is something I have on my monthly vision board.

Step 8:  Reread affirmations you create for yourself around this feeling starting with the words, “I Intend”.  The word “intend” resonates at a higher energy frequency.

Step 9:  As much as is feasible or possible, tie your intentions to the energy of the day.  I write about the energy generated from both the movements of the Sun and the Moon on my astrology blog. 

Here’s a picture of your Positive Pie!  Mercury is retrograde and I’ve been trying to get the picture to insert for over half an hour.  You’ll have to go to my media for the picture, as I simply do not have any more time to devote to blog writing this morning.

A number of years ago I had a dream that clearly pointed out to me one person who had taken up huge chunks of my time.  I was trying to “rescue her” when she simply refused to do any work on herself.  The dream helped me to understand that.  It seems I’m a slow learner, as I had to go through every season of the year before I learned my lesson. 

Here it is.

I was walking through my favorite forest one fine spring day and heard a call for help.  I quickly walked along the animal highway until I came to a nearby pool.  On the edge of the pool there was a wonderful woman floundering and yelling for help.  She was mired in the quicksand that I knew was in only one tiny part of the pond.  I reached down with my hands and pulled her out.  I explained the quicksand was only at that one small part of the pool.  She could avoid it by going into the pool at any other spot.

I was walking through my favorite forest one fine summer day and heard a call for help.  I quickly walked along the animal highway until I came to a nearby pool.  On the edge of the pool there was a lovely lady floundering and yelling for help.  She was mired in the quicksand that I knew was in only one tiny part of the pond.  I gave her the tools of branches so she could pull herself out.  I explained the quicksand was only at that one small part of the pool.  She could avoid it by going into the pool at any other spot.

I was walking through my favorite forest one fine autumn day and heard a call for help.  I quickly walked along the animal highway until I came to a nearby pool.  On the edge of the pool there was the same adult woman floundering and yelling for help.  She was mired in the quicksand that I knew was in only one tiny part of the pond.  I taught her to use the tools of branches so she could pull herself out and avoid going near the quicksand.  I explained the quicksand was only at that one small part of the pool.  She could avoid it by going into the pool at any other spot.

I was walking through my favorite forest one fine winter day and heard a call for help.  I quickly walked along the animal highway until I came to a nearby pool.  On the edge of the pool there was the same silly woman floundering and yelling for help.  She was mired in the quicksand that I knew was in only one tiny part of the pond.  She was cold, she was frightened as she had not learned to go near the quicksand.  I told her to learn her lessons and walked away.  I didn’t feel I needed to go round the yearly circle rescuing  a person who truly did not want to be rescued because she refused to use her own knowingness and skills.

Reflection Questions:

1.  Are you a rescuer?

2.  Are you a victim?

3.  Why did you choose either of those roles in life?

4.  How are you going to choose to change?

Be wary of the energy you are putting out there.  Are you attracting angels to your world or soul vampires?

First Event:  Recently a friend gifted me of some things his son, an ESL teacher, sent from China. I like them primarily because they are made of blue and silk. 

Second Event:  A friend send me some information on how Tai Chi is related to astrology which I’m passionate about.   

Third Event:  My hubby gave me two lovely balls in a padded wooden box painted with a Sun and a Moon.  They have very distinct ring tones to them. 

This all happened over the course of a two week span.  I felt strongly that I needed to check into what these mysterious balls were.  Why would they be in our remote northern part of Canada?  I found out they are called Chinese Medicine Balls.  When I delved further into the historical background, I was led to investigating Tai Chi. 

Conclusion:  I’m supposed to start doing Tai Chi for my health.  I’m grateful to the Universal Force which led me to pertinent websites that will help guide me in the study of the philosophy of Tai Chi.  For you yoga folks and alternative energy folks, this is definitely tied in Kundalini and Zero Point Energy.  Any of you who might have helpful information, I would be grateful for it!

Reflection Questions! 

1. What are three events that appear as coincidences in your life?
2. What conclusion can you draw from these coincidences to the direction on your roadmap of life?

Affirmations and Intentions:  I intend to do Tai Chi exercises every day.  I intend to continue my research and studies into the mind-body-spirit-emotion connection. 

“You cannot change anything in your life with intention alone,

which can become a watered-down, occasional hope

that you’ll get to tomorrow.

Intention without action is useless.”

Here’s what I know to be true.  God doesn’t make any junk (Ethel Waters).  So the true inner you is an angel of light and beauty.  Therefore you are the star of your soul’s parade.  It’s time for you to let your own personal light shine through that mask you have been wearing. 

So it’s time to strip away your mask and rediscover who the true you is.  I’m asking you to re-discover yourself to become the self actualizing person you came to this earth to become.  It’s time for you to go into Your Sacred Safe Place deep inside yourself and figure out your cornerstone belief system.  How can you do that?  Look to your mind-body-spirit-emotion connection. 

Find out what brings you happiness and joy in each of those cornerstones that form the foundation of who you came to be this lifetime.  Once you cross the bridge into being your true self, you get to strip away all the chaos from your life.  You are on your true path to manifesting the real you!  Your energy will connect with others who are vibrating with the same type of energy you are vibrating with.  Angels will come into your life out of seemingly nowhere.  Ah, doesn’t that feel better? 

Bridge your fear.  Step out of your fear shadow.  Step into the sunlight.  Let your personal light shine.  Love yourself.  Be yourself Yes you can … strip away those masks! Cross your bridge from fear to love and become the person you intend to be!

Reflection Questions!  Use one to four adjectives to describe each part of your fundamental self.

1. My body is _____
2. My mind is _____
3. My soul is _____
4. My main emotion is joy and happiness.

Affirmations and Intentions:  I intend to live a life I deserve.  I am living a life of joy and happiness. 

To be nobody but yourself

in a world which is doing its best day and night

to make you everybody else,

means to fight the hardest battle

which any human being can fight, and

never stop fighting.

(e.e. cummings)

4 minutes later:  The violinist received his first dollar: a woman threw the money in the hat and, without stopping, continued to walk.

6 minutes:  A young man leaned against the wall to listen to him, then looked at his watch and started to walk again.

10 minutes:  A 3-year old boy stopped but his mother tugged him along hurriedly.  The kid stopped to look at the violinist again, but the mother pushed hard and the child continued to walk, turning his head all the time.  This action was repeated by several other children.  Every parent, without exception, forced their children to move on quickly.

45 minutes:  The musician played continuously.  Only 6 people stopped and listened for a short while.  About 20 gave money but continued to walk at their normal pace.  The man collected a total of $32.

1 hour:  He finished playing and silence took over.  No one noticed.  No one applauded, nor was there any recognition.

No one knew this, but the violinist was Joshua Bell, one of the greatest musicians in the world.  He played one of the most intricate pieces ever written, with a violin worth $3.5 million dollars.  Two days before Joshua Bell sold out a theater in Boston where the seats averaged $100.

This is a true story.  Joshua Bell playing incognito in the metro station was organized by the Washington Post as part of a social experiment about perception, taste, and people’s priorities.  The questions raised: in a common place environment at an inappropriate hour, do we perceive beauty?  Do we stop to appreciate it?  Do we recognize talent in an unexpected context?

One possible conclusion reached from this experiment could be this:  If we do not have a moment to stop and listen to one of the best musicians in the world, playing some of the finest music ever written, with one of the most beautiful instruments ever made…. How many other things (blessings) are we missing?
