The 10 of Fire, The 3 of Water and The Queen of Water
My son and I were eating dinner last night and laughing at our dogs. Our little dog would snarl at our larger dog anytime she tried to distract him from the food being eaten at the table.
I love dogs.
I love all animals.
Animals are always themselves. They don’t try and hide who they are or how they feel. They simply express and then move to the next thing and then the next.
If a person hurts them, they don’t sit around thinking about that person all the time. They play and eat and sleep and love.
They live their life in the present moment where everything is created.
Perhaps we can take a lesson from the animals, and from nature in general.
Live, laugh, love.
Get out of your mind.
Move into your heart.
Focus on what feeds your soul.
Shut out the divisive noise.
Walk in nature, talk to a tree, dance in your kitchen at 5am …. for no good reason. Lay on the ground and look at the stars.
And love each other.
We have no idea what burdens and battles each person is carrying.
Extend love. Care for each other. Listen.
Everyone has wounds so our judgement doesn’t help - ever.
But love does.
We are all one.
And when one person hurts we all hurt.
We all come from the same source and are going back to the same source. No matter what you think that source is.
I just started reading Gregory Boyle’s latest book, “Cherished Belonging”.
Early in the book he quotes Mother Teresa who said, “If we have no peace, it is because we have forgotten that we belong to each other.”
That is the Truth.
We do belong to each other.
Father Gregory Boyle goes on to say that he has never met anyone evil but he has met people with an addiction or a mental health issue … etc., etc..
I couldn’t agree more.
I often call this a spiritual broken leg.
And we all have one.
But, I have a question.
Don’t we want to be well and whole?
Don’t we want to have a loving neighborhood, community, city, state, country and World?
Then it starts with each of us.
Send love to the person that you aren’t happy with. And, yes, you can do that from afar.
Because love heals.
When Hurricane Milton was heading towards Florida after Helene, I sent that Hurricane love. I could feel the exchange. I didn’t demand anything of Hurricane Milton. I simply sent the storm love by recognizing its right to be and its inherent Divinity.
We can all do this. It isn’t hard.
So send love to the CEO of the company you don’t like, or the battlefield in the Middle East, or the politician that you really don’t enjoy, or the lump in your breast that you are concerned about. Recognize the Divinity in what you don’t prefer. Then don’t think about it anymore, unless you want to send more love:) It can only help. It can only help make us whole.
The Guides that teach through Paul Selig often say (and I am paraphrasing), The Divine is on the battlefield it just is being denied.
The Guides have also stated:
“Always remember friends, you do not make anybody holy, you cannot do that, they already are.” - The Guides through Paul Selig
But, we can remind them that they are holy when they have forgotten.
And, we can bring that awareness to the battle field or to the hurricane or to the man that is talking to himself on the street.
Perhaps the storms have been here to show us the state of our collective mind.
How we keep shooting ourselves in the foot instead of seeing our foot as part of the whole.
But I have faith.
I believe that we can get out of our minds and into our hearts and understand that we belong to each other. Thank you Mother Teresa.
Much love on this Full Moon in Taurus!
These are my creations of The Ten of Fire, The Three of Water and the Queen of Water
Warmly,
Stephanie
