Here we all are, entering the fourth month of the year, (yes, raised eyebrows and gasps at how time slips away from our clutches – (then I remember how I committed to not mentioning time flitting by…) and I for one have got so many questions rollerblading around in my head.
What an utterly awful month March turned out to be. Well, for me and many close friends and family. Ill Health seemed to be the presiding judge and as we left Pisces behind and ventured into go getter Aries, the only thing spurred on seemed to be the violent side of human beings, instead of Healing – in all its forms. One can only continue to pray for peace and urge Light Beings to continue to concentrate on the Light even in these darkest hours of terrorism around the world.
I am struggling with Healing, in the actual medical sense of the word. I have faith that Healing (alternative, homeopathic, psychosomatic healing, ayurverdic and good ole pharmaceutical) is done via many conduits and that each system has its place in our lives. My struggle comes from having Faith that Healing is taking place on all levels, but the physical “wound” remains. So, does that mean Healing has not manifested in the Physical yet, or that it is not working? How long does one wait for Healing before going the surgery route? It’s a real brain and faith teaser – and one that I am working on every day. Some times its rather irritating to not know all the answers, wink wink, but rather that than yet another sigh-inducing-irritating bumper-sticker quote.
April, the original second month of the new year (ok, ok, I am going back a just few millennia) heralds many positives. For starters, we in South Africa celebrate Freedom Day on 27th. The World will (hopefully) celebrate Earth Day on the 22nd and we will welcome reliable earthy Taurus. Our wonderful Mother Moon rises like the Phoenix on 7th, bringing in the New Moon and the Full Moon is an early morning one on 22nd. So, get the Lavender, Salt and Citrine stone ready with your wishes hand written (remember Akasha!) and place in a water proof container in the garden or if you have a patio, place in a plant. Keep everything untouched between the New and Full moons. After the Full Moon, sprinkle the salt around the garden or patio and bury the Citrine with the Lavender in the garden or in a plant.
I must apologise for the delay in getting the Smiley Face Online Shop Up and Live – it has been a learning curve to say the least! Hopefully it will bring as many smiles as we (Barnaby, Willow and I) hope for!
I’ve discovered the most incredible website; tsemrinpoche.com. I do not want to give too much away, suffice to say it heralds many interesting things. Do have a look! I was fortunate enough to visit the Big Buddha on Kowloon in 2008 and have never forgotten the overwhelming feeling of Grace. Boy-oh-boy does the World need Grace…
With love and light
