Energy Raising & a Countdown

March 6th, 2011

~ The Nineteen Things I Love About Spring Countdown!! ~

Fourteen days to go until spring has sprung!!!

#14~ Dry Roads

I know with all the spring showers, there’s plenty of wet to be had, but the weather is kinder. It may rain, but with rising temperatures it stays wet for shorter stretches. I love being able to get back out on the road on my bicycle with my pack. My pack loves it too.

They get tired of the treadmill.

I started doing this energy building exercise last week, and now I’m noticing the flow of energy seems to be starting on its own now.

What you do is, imagine a bright, warm, white light coming down from above and entering your crown chakra, at the crown of your skull. It flows down to your solar plexus (where your lowest ribs come together on your front) and swirls. All this is on the inhale. Then, on the exhale, you imagine that beam of white light beaming out from your solar plexus and into the Universe.

It’s supposed to build energy, raise your vibration, and puff up and strengthen you auric field.

It’s been a full week that I’ve been doing this little exercise and this morning when I simply thought about doing it, I started to feel that tingly feeling on the top of my head. I didn’t relax or take a deep breath or try to do anything. I just thought, “I want to make sure I take a minute this morning to do that exercise,” and immediately the crown of my head started to get all prickly and swirly.

That was pretty cool.

They say you have energy memory and once you get energy flowing a certain way, it will cut an energetic riverbed that will flow more naturally over time. I find it reassuring that my energy memory is taking hold so fast.

This little exercise experience has shown me not only how easy it is to get positive energy moving through my body and life, but has also illustrated pretty blatantly how chronic disease happens. If I can create such a beautiful energy flow in just one week’s time, how much time might it take to use negative thoughts and emotion to create negative energy paths or rather, path blockages, and create disease?

Yours for the Asking

February 23rd, 2011

One day I was heading to the gas station.

There are several in a row, because we live near an interstate, and I always go the the third. Once in a great while, I go to the fifth.

So, I was heading to the gas station this day, last year, and as I passed the first and second station, I noted that their gas was $2.59 per gallon. I said to myself, “I’d prefer to pay $2.53,” and I immediately saw the $2.53 sign in my mind, just as an illustration to go with the thought.

I drove the quarter mile to the third station and would you believe that gas THERE was $2.53 per gallon. I was completely stunned because I hadn’t been trying to do that. It was just a passing thought. A request to pay less disguised in the stating of a preference.

Whenever I head to the gas station from home, this incident almost ALWAYS crosses my mind. It was so amazing. I don’t know if I created it or if I saw it psychically before I got there, but either way it was very cool and it makes me high every time I revisit the memory.

* * * * * * * * * * *

I’m going to preface this story by saying;
My boys were off school Monday and Michael went to his friends house. I drove him there and he commented on how low my gas gauge was. I’d intended to get gas on my way to pick him up, but he ended up calling early due to a little disruption there, so I went to get him unexpectedly, and forgot about the gas. Upon returning home, my gauge was so low, I was just hoping I’d make it to the gas station when I left again.

Yesterday, I left. I got in my van and remembered that I desperately needed gas. As I pulled down the driveway, I thought, “I need to make it to the gas station. Please help me remain in peace.” (That last part is from the book I’m reading! Review tomorrow!)

I didn’t even acknowledge the price at station one and two. Station three said $3.22, and my eyes boggled! It had been only $3.05 the day before! I decided at that split second to drive a mile down the road to station five. They’re usually the same or a cent or two less.

I pulled in to see a guy outside with a long stick, changing the price on the huge sign out front. I didn’t know how much it was, but it said $3.1- so far, so I knew it was at least in the teens.

The pumps were full, but as I drove up, one right in front of me opened up as though magickally, so I parked next to my pump and got out. I reached up to swipe my credit card and looked right at the price per gallon, digital read on the pump.

$3.07

I looked over at the guy at the sign with the long stick. He’d completed this side of the sign and moved on to the other side. The sign now read, $3.19.

“Holy crap!” I thought, and hurriedly swiped my card to get the transaction going so the pump would be turned on. As I stood there waiting for authorization, the sign guy walked back across the parking lot and into the store.

I watched the pump in anticipation, bouncing on the balls of my feet.

Authorized! Remove nozzle, select grade, begin pumping.

I jumped up in the air and did a jiggy dance right there next to my van. I decided at that moment to fill my tank instead of just the $10 I’d intended to put in it.

I no sooner got the nozzle in my van and the gas flowing through it when a voice came over the intercom to tell the woman right next to me that the pumps were being reset and she’d have to wait a moment.

* * * * * * * * * * *

Here’s what I learned.

Whenever I remember that awesome day I saved six cents at the pump and predicted the exact price, it amps up my vibe and creates wonderful energy. I always feel good and extra-specially glowy when I daydream about past manifestations and evidence of my connection to God.

I often accompany my thoughts of that day with, “That was so awesome. I wish that would happen again,” but it was so fantastic, I couldn’t really imagine it happening again. And besides, that’s not only a fantastical request, it’s awfully specific.

I think what happened this time is…

I actually expressed a request. I needed to get to a gas station, and I was worried I wouldn’t make it. I said, “I need to get to a gas station. Please help me stay in peace.”

All wrapped up in that was a request to reach my destination, in perfect order, in divine timing, while helping me to remain in perfect peace with all of it. I think it was the peace part that did it, because I didn’t feel peace when I saw the $3.22.

But after the request in my driveway, I entertained my past manifestation as usual, which made me smile, as usual.

So, I’m thinking it was the request followed by the good vibes. And I let it go. I mean, I REALLY let it go. Once I pulled out of my driveway, all thoughts of worry were gone. It’s funny though. I didn’t release my worry consciously. As a matter of fact, as I’m sitting here replaying it all in my mind as I write it down, I just realized that I didn’t give another thought to running out of gas.

It’s like my mind was in peace the moment I asked for it to be… Wow, that’s kinda… wow. And it happened so seamlessly that I didn’t even consciously realize it had happened.

I guess I learned some more while writing what I learned before.

How’s that for poetic rumination.

Full Moon Mishap Turned Manifestation

February 18th, 2011

Last night, or more specifically at 3:36am EST this morning, was the Full Moon in Leo, which only lasted for an hour until 4:39am when the moon went into Virgo.

I, weirdo that I am, wanted to be awake between 3 and 3:30 so I would be awake for that small window.

This, I knew, wouldn’t be a problem. My internal clock is pretty darned reliable. At that moment, I looked at the clock (and it’s still mid afternoon at this point) and took note of the time and set an intention in my mind to be awake for the Full Moon in Leo at 3:36am.

As the evening wore on, I was actually oddly excited about being awake and meditatively receptive when the Moon underwent Her changes.

Then the thought struck me;

My internal CLOCK is in good running condition. It wakes me up every morning. I fail to rise often, however, simply because being drowsy and warm in my bed is far more inviting. I hope I’m able to be awake enough that I don’t talk myself out of this at 3:30. I hope I don’t just note the time and roll over going directly back to sleep, never having remembered WANTING to awaken.

These worries stalked the corners of my mind for the rest of the night.

* * * * * * * * * * *

Back in the beginning of January, we installed a wood stove in the sun room. I lovingly refer to my bedroom as “The East Wing” because basically the whole east end of the house is the master’s suite. The sun room has a private entrance from my room.

Since we’ve begun keeping a small amount of wood stacked neatly in the sun room, we’ve noticed there are more bugs in the house. Ladybugs, “stink bugs”, and ants mostly. I think they hitch a ride in, inside the wood, and wake up when they warm up.

We’ve decided to start keeping wood outside and very close by instead of INSIDE.

* * * * * * * * * * *

3:06 am* Exactly 30 minutes before “show time” last night, also known as this morning.

The covers fly from my body. The bed shakes, and quivers. A bright light bursts through the darkness, blinding me save for the array of blue and green orbs of shock that float behind my eyelids.

“What the hell are you DOING?!” I ask, not hiding my irritation at the rude awakening.

“There’s a bug of some sort in the DAMN BED!” Mike shrieks! (yeah, shrieks. He’s kind of a bitch about bugs of any kind in his bed where he’s naked)

So, all the blankets came off, and he shook them all out, and looked the bed over. Then he scowled at me in not a very nice way when I pointed out that the bug he was looking for most likely had wings, and would probably not be found on the floor where he was currently on his hands and knees, looking.

* * * * * * * * * * *

I was not only awakened in the correct time frame, but I was given inspiration to get out of, and away from my bed. I was up for the entire hour in Leo, and then some. It was perfectly executed.

Dear Universe,

Real subtle. Kind of amusing. Thanks for always responding to me.

I Love You Too~
