[Excerpt from one of the “Facing the Mirror” sections… Facing the Mirror: How do you connect with yourself?]
· Be aware of changes in your energy
Yes, learn to do this. It could save your life.
I was at a stop light in Fremont, Nebraska, southbound on Broad St. I was driving, my now ex-husband was sitting in the passenger seat.
All of the sudden, yep, there it was, that “change” in energy. It’s so hard to describe because it can be so subtle. My reaction to it was that I froze. The red light turned green, and still, I sat there, frozen. My ex was shouting at me now, “Move, go!! The light is green!”
Nope, my body wouldn’t budge.
Within seconds, a car went speeding through a red light in front of us, west bound on 23rd St., at 60 or 70 miles an hour. If I would’ve been making my left hand turn onto this street, it would have broadsided us.
After this vehicle whooshed through this intersection, yep, there it was again, that weird change in energy. I was no longer frozen. I was also miffed at the man in the passenger seat and his attitude, so I turned to him calmly as he sat there now in shocked silence, open-mouthed, and I said, “Okay, now it’s time to move.”
· Write down your dreams
I used to keep dream journals, but then I used to remember my dreams. Not so much anymore unless it’s a visitation dream. That’s a dream where the spirit of a departed loved one visits you. They are usually very vivid dreams, you will acutely feel the departed spirit’s presence, and you will not forget the dream. Sometimes your departed family member may have an important message to leave with you.
My great-grandmother showed up to tell me it was okay. I hadn’t seen or spoken to her in several years before she passed. So, she showed herself with her lips tied shut, much like you see on voodoo dolls in hoodoo horror flicks, which was her way of emphasizing a lack of communication. It was an alarming sight at first, but I quickly realized her implications. Then I heard her voice telepathically in my mind: “It’s okay.” Immediately, there was a feeling of peace.
It was her way of acknowledging that even though it had been a long time since we’d seen or spoken with each other, all our ties and our relationship were intact. Always was, always would be.
As it so often happens, this reading mirrors the written reading I did this morning for our Daily Cards. It’s kind of eerie when that happens, but it just tells us that there is a definite energy and vibe that needs expressing. Here’s a link to that reading, those daily cards, at my blog: https://everycathasatale.blogspot.com…
Just a heads up… the Queen/pentacles at first appears oblivious and complacent about what’s going on around her. She is not. She had me fooled too, until I pulled that last batch of cards. Don’t underestimate her. If you’re lucky, she just doesn’t care. And if you’re not so lucky… well.
Late last night, after the last of my weary travel-worn guests were checked in, and the clock was ticking down to it’s final moments before I could bolt and run for home, I read my horoscope in the daily paper: “You can’t please everyone, so spend time improving your appearance, emotional well-being, and love life. It will be to your benefit to focus on you.” I realized that my return to Singledom was like the coming of a New Age, a turning point, a milestone, a new beginning, the next phase, filled with decisions, new opportunities, new experiences, and as yet unknown adventures.
This past weekend, October 14 & 15th, we shared a unique boutique/yardsale experience which included arts and crafts, as well as new-age items and tarot readings. We met a lot of interesting people, made some new friends, and had two very fun-filled days.
By the magick of the following photo slideshow, you can take a peek.
On Saturday, August 27, noon-4pm, I’ll be giving live in-house tarot readings at Next Millennium in Omaha, Nebraska.
Come on down! Not only can you get a reading with me, but you’ll have a blast shopping at this wonderful metaphysical shop, and I’ll be shopping right along with you, I guarantee. I need some more crystals, and I wanted to see what kind of crystal wands they have available. And of course, I always check out the tarot decks– nice selection– I can’t resist. 🙂
If you have one of my books and you’d like it signed, I can do that for you. If you don’t have one of my books but would like a copy, you can purchase that right here at Next Millennium.
It’s going to be a fun day– it always is. Can’t wait to see you.
Blessings,
Amythyst Raine
