Daily Guidance - February 8

I drew the first 3 Soul Call cards (on the right) and they just weren't resonating with

with me so I drew the fourth.  Now it was starting to make sense, especially when I 

starting playing with them and read them in reverse order.  

Surrender the Wrestling and Walls both in a troubled relationship and with life in 

general, dear heart.

It was also lovely to see how they were now dovetailing with the two oracle cards
I drew today.

There is a Map leading to another way... more choices than you first realized.  You
can continue to choose to bless the space between you and another and, as best you
can in each moment, quietly, calmly let the struggle go. Follow the path that leads
to where you are fed... and loved. 

Our Lady of Creative Choice will help me to find a new choice, one that leads to
enthusiasm and Joy?

Yes.

Blessed be.

St. Joseph, the Carpenter

Our nephew joined the army

and his first day of bootcamp was Monday.

As I sat in daily mass this morning, 

a most wonderful

(and deeply comforting)

thought came.

St. Joseph was a carpenter,

pretty close to a present day

"Horizontal Construction Engineer,"

yes?

I sure think so.

Grace.

Trustin' that St. Joseph 

is watching over our boy

as we continue to hold him

in our thoughts and prayers.

St. Michael, the Archangel,

protect our troops.

Amen.

Today's Guidance - February 7

When Navigating by the Star,

I can trust that the 

Tender Mother,

Our Lady of New Vision,

Our Lady of Growth Assured

will be present

in the Vessel of my heart.

Today's Guidance - February 6

When I answer the call,

I can trust that 

I will be supported

and comforted

with what I need.

When I intentionally 

spend time in my Egg,

my life will Flow

and that is the Jewel.

A Wonderful Surprise

Not long after her mother passed, a Facebook friend from across the sea reached

out to me. She said that, if I was willing, she’d like me to have some treasures that 

she had first given to her mom.

I was touched by her kind offer, especially when she told me that Chartres, where the 

items were purchased when they were visiting there together, is a church dedicated 

to Our Lady (Mary). I was deeply grateful and delighted to accept her generous Gift.

As an aside (or is it?), her daughter has been very, very sick so I had no idea when 

her package of care might arrive.

Well guess what?

It came today!! I knew to expect the labyrinth book and beautiful blue sun catcher. 

I did not expect to find Love, Peace, and Faith all tucked in as well, or the words on 

her card “unnumbered blessings give my spirit voice.” I’m so struck by the timing of 

their arrival, right a group call for an online class that I'm taking that focused on 

Love and Faith. Smiling softly because my secret wish for our earth before Freedom 

emerged was Peace.

Hmmmmm... she says playfully. 

My guardian angel stopping in

to give me the big hug I longed for?  

Yes, I believe so. 

Blessed be.

.            *            .

Happy Birthday, Girlies!!

I do love them so!

Our favorite 7-year old.

Our favorite 5-year old.

Our sweet baby girl

right before she fell asleep in my arms.

Can you see her cute ponytail?

Or, according to hubby,

"fountain."

Little brother playing with his new cars

while birthday girl looks on.

A little while later, 

I thoroughly enjoyed 

getting on the floor

and playing with him.

Blessed be.

Blessing of My Throat

A close up of Mary today

on this, the feast day of St. Blaise.

I made a point to attend mass

this morning

because it felt important 

to have my voice blessed.

Father may not have known

what he was doing.

But I did.

Blessed be.

The Joy of Rediscovering a Favorite Quote

Love this quote so much.

It whispers healing to me,

one who has long struggled 

with feeling "too big."

But what if

there is no apology necessary

for taking up so much space?

Even more,

what if I am beautiful just as I am?

Well, wouldn't that be something?

Something indeed.

Blessed be.

.            *            .

St. Brigid's Day Treat

Happy Imbolc, too!

I treated myself to these 

beeee-you-tiful coral roses. 

Smiling because I circled around them 

like 3 times 

and then decided 

it really was ok to go ahead 

and bring them home with me.

(I think they were calling out to me)

And ever since?

There have been oodles of smiles.

🏮 . 🕯 . 💚

Blessed be.
