Who Are Your Friends?

The poster says:   “I talk about you like you put the stars in the sky!”

********************************************

This means that you think so highly of someone that you cannot talk about them enough, almost to the point of a state of worship.  This can be good or bad.  However, I heard this phrase in the context of great love between a man and a woman, and the realization that they had.  They were so wrapped up in each other, they were losing their friends.  Friends are the food that keep you going.  So, it is good to love.  It is good to have friends.

Blessings,

Judy

Prayer

 image

The Angels tell us that the easiest way to speak with Creator is to simply talk to Creator in prayer.  A prayer is simply when we talk to Mother/Father God, or to the Supreme Being  that is in your belief system.  

I think simple prayers work the best because they come from the heart.   

I love this prayer because it covers so much.

Give Us Hearts to Understand


Give us hearts to understand;
Never to take from creation's beauty more than we give; 
never to destroy wantonly for the furtherance of greed; 
Never to deny to give our hands for the building of earth's beauty; 
never to take from her what we cannot use. 

Give us hearts to understand
That to destroy earth's music is to create confusion; 
that to wreck her appearance is to blind us to beauty; 
That to callously pollute her fragrance is to make a house of stench; 
that as we care for her she will care for us. 

We have forgotten who we are.
We have sought only our own security.
We have exploited simply for our own ends.
We have distorted our knowledge.
We have abused our power.

Great Spirit, whose dry lands thirst,
Help us to find the way to refresh your lands.

Great Spirit, whose waters are choked with debris and pollution, 
help us to find the way to cleanse your waters. 

Great Spirit, whose beautiful earth grows ugly with misuse, 
help us to find the way to restore beauty to your handiwork. 

Great Spirit, whose creatures are being destroyed,
help us to find a way to replenish them.

Great Spirit, whose gifts to us are being lost in selfishness and corruption, 
help us to find the way to restore our humanity. 

Oh, Great Spirit, whose voice I hear in the wind,
whose breath gives life to the world, hear me;
I need your strength and wisdom.

May I walk in Beauty.
(From the Native American Project)

4ccd3bfdf08b41 55 Inspiring Quotations That Will Change The Way You Think

The poster says:  The future belongs to the few of us still willing to get our hands dirty.

**********************

How many people do you know get their hands dirty on a regular basis?  If you come from a farming background, chances are you know people who did get dirty, working with their hands, digging, tilling, and fixing machinery, or working with animals.

Statistics tell us that less and less people are producing any thing for themselves; they rely on others to produce the food, the goods, and the technology.   One of the most calming things, to my mind, is digging in the dirt to create a garden, or working with animals, or fixing a piece of equipment. 

Yes, it is hard to fix things when the hard goods are all disposable, and some cities even prohibit the cultivating of gardens.  However, you may find a place where you can work with your hands, and get them dirty.  Your soul will thank you!

Blessings,

Judy

No One Is Alone

I was listening to two women talking at a cafĂ© while I was waiting for my sister to join me.  Their conversation was interesting because they talked about their children and how busy their kids or grandkids were.  Both women said that having their children close to them and yet so busy, made them feel alone or lonely.

I rolled that around in my mind.  Does lonely mean that they have no one to talk to?  Does lonely mean they feel excluded from the activities?  Does lonely mean that the children have nothing to do with their mother?  I wasn’t sure.

What I am sure about is that Angels are always present so one is never alone.

Find Your Strength

image

The poster says:  Strength does not come from physical capacity.  It comes from an indomitable will. — Gandhi

*******************************************

Strength moves us from a place of helplessness to being powerful.  Even the smallest child can have incredible strength if they have incredible will!

Our will – our truth deep within our Spirit – manifests so many ways, and yet we do not see how we are being strong.  We see others that are strong, and we remark on how powerful or willful, they are.  

Some examples are the will of people who are ill, to live.   Or, the will of someone to go to university and the most adverse situation.  Or, the will of someone who has different learning disabilities to learn to read and write, and then to write best selling books.   Gandhi is a wonderful example of the will of one man to make change. 

I think about our Ancestors and how they had the will to move from Europe or Asia to North America in the seventeen and eighteen hundreds, and then hook up with a wagon train to travel west.  What courage and will!  

Is there something that you need to find the will to do?  

Blessings,

Judy

June 1 - On Happiness

                                            Picture of happy flowers - J Hirst 

Happiness is not a goal; it is a by-product.  Eleanor Roosevelt

****************

As June rolls in, I think happy thoughts of summer and barbque and drinks on the deck and enjoying the sun and the growing garden and the flowers.  Yes, lots of little things make me happy.  

Today, think of all the things that make you happy and work one happy thing into each of the days ahead.  It is worth the effort.

What Are You Thinking?

artcommentsfeelingsfunnylovequotessayingsmessagesandquotes a132e83b964b16145098a8cad85222e6 h1 55 Inspiring Quotations That Will Change The Way You Think

The poster says:  Stop thinking of what could go wrong and start thinking of what could go right!

***************************

This poster was a really nice wakeup call for me!  I was falling into a trap that existed around me, on a project, where everyone worried about what could go wrong.  I thought about what I was thinking – that is when you realize how far out you can go with your thoughts!

I normally think happy thoughts.  I am grateful for my sisters and our closeness so I often think about situations that made me laugh when we three sisters were together.  I clicked into a knowing that I let that go… Why?  I was being sucked into “grim”.  

I am letting go of grim and going back to happy.  I made a list of all the good things, and I have it visually pinned to the cork board in my office in my head.  I look at it every day, sometimes twice a day, or when ever I need it.  Things do go ‘right’!

Start Now

 The poster says:  Begin doing what you want to do now.  We are not on this earth for eternity.  We have only this moment, sparkling like a star in our hand and melting like a snowflake.  -  Marie Benyon Ray

**************************************************

I hear so many people talk about what they will do when the time is right.  Meanwhile, they dig deeper into the rut they have created.  As the poster says, use this moment to make the change.  Start now!  Everything always works out as you follow your dream.

Work To Inspire Self

image

The poster says: Inspiration does exist, but it must find you working. - Pablo Picasso

************************************

It is easy to let go of ambition to do this or that, and this is mostly in the competitive world of career and position climbing.  Competition such as that gets old after while.

What makes getting up in the morning lots of fun is to find something that you can work at, and, as you work at it, it grows and changes you – rather than you changing it!  

Inspiration gives you new synapses in your brain.  It makes you fun, interesting, and a great person to know.  Inspiration is about feeling alive and being able to conquer all that lies ahead of you.

Good luck and blessings for your next inspiration.

Religion and Spirituality Are Different



To me, religion is an agreement between a group of people about what God is. Spirituality is a one-on-one relationship. —-Steve Earle

I am interested that several times, lately, someone comes up to me and tells me that they are spiritual, and then proceeds to describe their religion to me.  Their religion seems to have so many rules and “must do” and “must not do”, I wonder how they can possibly enjoy life. 

I enjoy Steve Earle’s comment.  Steve Earle is a singer and song writer who has written hits for movies including Dead Man Walkingand Brokeback Mountain, to name two.  His quote talks about spirit and it’s relationship with God or Great Spirit.

You Are Unique

 

image

The poster says:  What lies behind us and what lies before us are tiny matters compared to what lies within us.  - Ralph Waldo Emerson

************************************************

Some days, you have to get out of bed and say, “This is the dream. I can do what ever I need to do, today!”

By doing this, you free up yourself to look within, to see what calls to you from the heart, and allows you to do “something” that fulfills your soul.

Although that sounds like a huge task, it is not!  Fulfilling your soul is unique for each of us.  It may be anything from car racing to making bread, to reading to children at a library.  What lies within us is a need to connect with something greater than each of us.

For me, being out with animals, in Nature, brings great peace to my soul, my physical body, and my emotional body.  I come back to the house feeling energized.  

My friend, Diana, bakes cookies.  She will make large ones and small ones and cute ones, and feel happier for it.  It makes her friends happy too, because we get to eat them.

Like the Eagle, we each have to soar and dive into things to find the special “thing” that fulfills us.  Start looking today if you don’t know what it is.

Blessings,

Judy

Trusting In Self

 

image

This poster says:  Just trust yourself.  Then you will know how to live. - Goethe

******************************************

I was doing a card reading for a friend, using Doreen Virtue’s Angel Cards.  The card that came up in every selection when we moved to a different question, was the card, TRUST.

The idea of trusting ourselves is not new.  We have all been taught not to trust ourselves, by religion and priests or ministers, by teachers, and by parents and family.  How many times were your decisions criticized by one of the groups in the previous sentence?  I know that they have your best interests at heart, but, do they really?  Or, are they trying to keep you from rocking their world.

It is often easier to persuade someone not to change than to let their change interfere with your life and patterns of belief.  You may even have done this to a friend.  Is that person still your friend?

Trusting yourself means not asking others for their opinion.  For some reason, if you ask for an opinion, the other person expects you to follow the guidance.  Sometimes the guidance is so ridiculous, you could not possibly follow it.  So, save yourself some grief.  Make your own decisions.  If you need to get advice from a trusted expert – a lawyer, accountant, or doctor, or whoever, that is different than asking someone who is not an expert.  Don’t stop doing that.

Blessings,

Judy

Enchantment


 

Sometimes, we move through life too quickly to see the enchantment in special places.  Most often, it will be in a forest where the shade, the Sun, and the warmth conspire to create the most mystical spots.  Spots where we can see in our mind, the dancing fairies, sprites, and beautiful creatures.  

In this enchanted spot, they are real.  In being real, they are now part of our lives, and they can provide energy to us.  If you feel low, depressed, not motivated, then think of “Enchantment” and see how quickly your motivation can change.

Enchantment, it is said, is about impossible things happening.  For example, the first people that saw a biplane that had never heard of airplanes, thought that the plane was magic or an enchantment.  They believed the pilot was enchanted – made to do the impossible.

When I am given a task that feels quite large, I break it down in to enchantments – thing that are possible but may require some creativity and some hard work.

What will you enchant today?

Blessings,

Judy

Turtle’s Wisdom


Western Painted Turtle picture from Instagram

**************************

Turtle – one that we associate with wisdom, age, earth, water, and fire, had many thoughts to share with us.

Some of these thoughts were:

  • Minimize your possessions.  They weigh you down and you cannot carry them all with you.  A home may be carried anywhere.
  • Swim deeply into the depths of emotions and look them all in the eye.  You must face them to let them drop away.
  • Find ways to be on the Earth and with the water at least weekly.  This is balance.
  • Drink much water to get the oxygen into your blood.  
  • Withdraw when you need to.  Your home is sacred and you can keep others out.

Blessings,

Expanding One’s Self


The poster says:  I love people who make big dreams feel normal.  Who remind you that nothing is too much.  Who expand your vision just by being themselves.

*******************

Some say that we should learn nothing new, that all learning is the source of discontent!  I see that those who expand, like the flower, grow and live life to the fullest.  I see those who are conservative, and who disavow that which is new, begin to shrivel.  They dry up and life leaves them.

Expanding is the art of moving forward and upward.  It is the movement of connecting deeply with one’s highest self or highest spirit.  It is a challenge.  It is rewarding.  It is renewing.

Blessings,

Judy

Mandala For Meditation



Our Ancestors found that they could not meditate or pray without some sort of tool.  Over time, the mandala was created to help individuals to focus their mind so they could meditate.  

I read that the definition of prayer is “when you talk to God”.  The discussion went on to say that meditation is “when God talks to you”.  I think these are two very good reasons to pray and to meditate.  You may not get the hang of it immediately.  It does take practice.

Try using the mandala.  If this one does not work for you, then try a different one.  The Buddhists have used mandalas to focus for a very long time.  

Here is another post on Mandalas - https://www.lightstationwisdom.com/2026/03/mandala.html

Mother’s Day May 10 2026

 


Happy Mother’s Day!

Mother’s Day rolls around and we all feel that urge to connect to that Mother figure in our life.  It may be our birth mother, adopted mother, aunt, grandmother, special person, sister, that is, anyone who took care of us and “mothered” us with love and/or affection, and pride, and sufferance.  

We all have stories to share.  Today, however, send out loving thoughts to that person and bless them, and let them go.

Walk The Line


You've got a way to keep me on your side.
You give me cause for love that I can't hide.
For you I know I'd even try to turn the tide.
Because you're mine, I walk the line.”

-Johnny Cash - Walk The Line Lyrics

The words are talking about being true to your love, and, therefore, walking a thin line between doing what is right and good, and what is harmful and selfish or even illegal.  

The Angels know that each of us face “the line” each day, and often several times a day.  When you feel that you may “step over the line” then call on the Angels to help you keep to the side of integrity.

Blessings,

More on Effort

This poster says: On this path no effort is wasted.

**********************************

I saw this sign, and it made me smile!  It confirms what I believe – that is – that each of us walks a path that is so unique that it carries great importance for the rest of the Universe.  This means that one should never let the influence of another person’s agenda change what a person must do.

If we were all gifted with foresight, perhaps we could say to another person, “You should do this or that!”  

However, most people are quick to offer the “shoulds”, especially when it suits that person’s agenda to get something done.  More and more, I am noticing that so many people who seem to have their life in shambles, want to tell me what I am doing wrong – not right – but wrong, in my life.  

I find their concern quite funny!  Their comments come unsolicited, and are quite different areas of concern than what I generally have.  I wonder why they are even thinking about some of the stuff that I get feedback on.  

If you have friends and family that are giving you too much advice, try laughing over it.  

Blessings,

Judy

Look To The Stars

Dear Ones!  Start looking to the stars.  Did you see how “star” appears in “start”?  If you look to the sky even late morning, you will see the Moon, and even some twinkling stars if you are lucky enough to catch their reflection.

The Stars are now sending more energy to this solar system.  The energy is causing the Sun to expand and contract more rapidly.  Solar flares are very common.  The flares, in turn, change the magnetics of the Earth.  This is why you may feel some dizziness from time to time, or feel that the Earth tilts or moves.  

You are also experiencing some changes caused by the rapid rise and fall in temperature.  This is not the norm, and, is again, influenced by the Stars.

Blessings,

When Sleep Is Difficult

Sleep is very difficult for many of you.  Sleep will be several hours only and you then are awake, tired, hot, and restless. You toss and turn. You feel that you are alone. You feel that your misery is a punishment.  Know that it is not.

When you are restless, you are getting a signal that you need to make a change in your life, in your daily activities.  You may need to walk more, be outside more, or find more time for yourself to meditate, read, or pursue a creative outlet.

When you are restless, you may also be dehydrated.  This is true if you get some leg cramps or some foot cramps.  Drink lots of water because water carries light.  Water helps you change your vibration, and, when you do move to a more comfortable vibration, you will sleep better.

Blessings,

May 1, 2026 Starting Summer and Sparkling Beings

May 1st in many places is seen as the beginning of summer because in the old ways, this is Beltane Day. Celebrations abound in parts of Europe.  Drum festivals, fire festivals, summer markets, and bonfires and dances.  In my part of the world, we can still get snow so May 1 is the hope for summer.  

The feeling of change is prevalent at this time.  Some of us are lucky enough to se e the Sparkling Beings – those made of pure energy – are coming to visit because the light frequencies are so high. Many see them as flashes or brief orbs.  They are here to watch and learn and assist, if called to assist.  We must remember to ask for help.

This is the time that the concept of “selfie” has dangers associated with it.  To be so into the selfishness of me, to be in that isolation, is to move away from Oneness and all that comes with Oneness.  It is, however, a choice.  Each choice is perfect for each person.

So it is.

Blessings,

A Blue Jay Moment

We were sitting on the deck this afternoon when Blue Jay popped onto a branch of the fir tree next to us, and leaned over to chat.

He was telling us to get prepared for an early winter.  He reminded me that I should buy more bird seed.  He said that he was grateful for the food that I put out.  And, he was grateful for all that we did for the birds and small animals.

Blue Jay went on to say that he and his kind were not always the kindest to their feathered kin.  He offered that we were always kind.

I thanked him.

Healing Is A Slow Process


 The poster says:  Healing takes time, and asking for help is a courageous step. —-Unknown

********************************

Like many people, over my lifetime, I have had to deal with different illnesses or physical situations that required some lengthy healing time.  Yes, our bodies do regenerate.  Yes, western medicine fixes many things that are broken, however, ultimately it is our own bodies that finish the healing.  We must allow the body the time and the energy to heal.  Many of us interfere with healing by eating or drinking the foods that interfere with the healing, or interfere by exercising too early or not getting enough sleep.  There are many factors that help and hinder healing.

Early on in my life, I learned that I did not need to do all the work and research by myself.  I asked for help.  It seemed that as I asked for help with whatever issue I was facing, the healing happened easier, if not quicker.  

Do I have any suggestions about asking for help?  Yes.  Here are some things that I found helpful.

1.  Specialists are great but even they can get it wrong.  Trust your body to tell you what is wrong and do not let anyone tell you that you are wrong if your body sends different messages than what a doctor is saying.  If I had listened to a doctor who kept telling me I was suffering from stress, I would not have found out that I had an inherited condition that could be controlled with a prescription.

2.  Use western medicine and support it with a great naturopath or shaman or medicine woman who can help with natural solutions if they are an alternative to a drug that causes side effects.  There are times when acupuncture, acupressure, reiki, BodyTalk, and all other holistic practices will help speed the healing process.

3.  Listen to your body, especially in recovery.  There is a saying in Qi Gong - No pain is no pain.  In the west, we often think that we need to push into pain and that pain is a badge.  Pain is pain and stops the healing process.  Pain is a blockage. Energy - healing energy does not flow through a blockage.

4.  Learn to stop to rest and/or sleep easily and as often as you can.  If you watch animals that are injured or are ill, they sleep much of the time.  When the body is at rest, the best healing happens because there are not any roadblocks to stop the healing.

5.  Go outside and be in Nature, especially be in a woods or forest or along water.  Healing happens by trees and by rivers.

If you are healing from something, I wish you strength and grace in dealing with your situation.  If you are strong and well, I wish you good fortune to stay healthy and to concentrate on continual healing support for your body.

Blessings,

Judy

Do Not Settle For One Victory

 

The poster says:  Take your victories, whatever they may be, cherish them, use them, but don't settle for them. ---- Mia Hamm

**************************************

Have you ever noticed that when you sit and chat with family or friends, that often the topic turns to the successes that a person or people had in the past, and how they mourn them?  They do not ever seem to talk about victories in the present, and there must be some.

So often we look in the mirror of the past that we do not see the present and all the great things that are right before us.  Some of the every day victories that we can celebrate include:

-setting a personal best at an exercise routine that you do whether it is running, walking, weight lifting, pilates, etc.

-walking in nature three out of seven days of the week.  Talk about it.  Celebrate it.

-making it to two out of four games that your child is playing either for school or in a community league.  When you are working, breaking free from work to champion your child is worth celebrating.

-talking to a parent or sibling or good friend who is far away can also be a reason to feel victory when your time is jammed with things that must be done.  

-going shopping when you have been getting groceries and other things delivered. Or, the opposite, you now order things to be delivered to free up some time for other things.  A change is reason to feel a personal victory.

The list can go on.  Please add to it by putting in a comment below.  I see people sigh and list all the things they cannot do.  They do not talk about the things that they have accomplished.  Accomplishments are the way to help you live positively.

Blessings,

Judy

If Love Is Not Provided


 The poster says:  You’ve got to learn to leave the table when love’s no longer being served.  —-Nina Simone

***************************

We wonder why someone or some group of people do not love us.  We blame ourselves.  We must have failed them in some way.  It must be our fault!  

Be assured.  Each of us is loveable.  Each of us is love.  When people deny you love, whether it is your parents, your siblings, old friends or new friends, you need to recognize that the fault is theirs, not yours.  When someone says, ‘if you really loved me, you would do xxxxx.”, you know that they have an agenda that is to manipulate you.  Manipulation or coercion is not love.  It is forcing you to do something that is against your will.  That is not love.  

Love is acceptance without conditions.  That is why so many people are turning to pets because pets love unconditionally.

Blessings,

Judy

Body, Mind, And Soul

scan0001

I drew three cards from Deborah Koff-Chapin’s deck of SOULCARDS 2.  They represent the Body, Mind and Soul.  I was asking what was going on with my body, my work, and whether that satisfied my soul.

The answer was the three cards.  There are several interpretations.  For me, the indication is to look further to help my Soul.

Perhaps you too, will find an answer in these cards.

Buddha on Reflecting Love

The problem with interpersonal love is that you are dependent on the other person to reflect love back to you. That’s part of the illusion of separateness. The reality is that love is a state of being that comes from within. 


- Ram Dass, “Tuning the Mind” 

We all expect that love will be available, freely, to us, because we are charismatic.  We believe that we are all loveable.  We believe that if we are not loveable, it is the other person’s fault.  We need to love ourselves, and then, everyone loves us!

Owl Messages


The Great Horned Owl has long been a symbol of great wisdom to humans.  Probably because it flies at night and sees clearly in the dark – something that humans cannot do.  

The Great Horned Owl has been coming and sitting in the tree outside our house at night.  It sings a song that is filled with messages that make sense for us to follow.

  • Eat only those things that you have grown or caught or worked for… you know that they are healthy
  • Live in balance – eat regularly, sleep to heal, and play with your family and friends.  Work only for what you need to keep eating
  • Try new things!  Let yourself soar, if only in your imagination.  You will be happy at how high you go.  You will see your life with more clarity.
  • Do not try to see through another’s eyes.  Instead, go higher and look down at your self.  It makes a difference.

Blessings,

We All Fail At Some Things

The poster says:  Just because you fail once doesn’t mean you’re gonna fail at everything. —Marilyn Monroe

**********************

I am hearing about the lack of coping skills that many adults under forty seem to exhibit.  The refrain is “they do not know how to accept and deal with failure”.  In our world, not all of us are going to be able to excel at everything.  We are all unique and we are born with different strengths and weaknesses.  These skills require that we find and mesh with others and thus create the teams that are successful.  No one person can do it all.

You Are Here To FULLY Live Life



(Note:  the original picture used here has disappeared. I replaced it with this one.)


The poster says:  Life begins at the end of your comfort zone.

********************************

As I watch people aging around me, I notice that the biggest difference between happy people and sad or angry people, is the amount of change that each individual allows in their own life. 

What do I mean?  The happy people are always going and growing.  They learn new things.  They participate in groups or volunteer.  They go beyond what they can or what they have to do to look after themselves.  Many of them are quite active physically in walking, biking, hiking, playing pickle ball or swimming.  The physical activity allows them additional energy to do other things.  When chatting with some of them, they all say that they will give up other things to continue to do the physical activity.  

I think that there is a lot going on about aging that we do not understand and that we can possibly change.  One of the things is going beyond the comfort zone.  What do you think? 

Blessings,

Judy

Take Responsibility

Responsibility is about taking credit for your own actions.  When you blame someone else, then you give your power away.  Giving your power away means that people have no reason to respect you, look up to you, or see you as a valuable friend.  

If you want to change the way people look at you, take responsibility.  It is easy to look at the other person, the circumstances, the scene, or the environment, and say that you are not able to make changes – that others want to limit you.  You and I know that is not true.  Yes, some people may want to bully you.  Don’t let them.

Blessings,

Visible Or Not - It Is Achievable



The poster says:  Success is possible and achievable.

********************************

So often the life you lead is because you see things in the mirror of failure.  Try positive thinking.  See things in the mirror as though you do them with zest.  Make the intangible real to your mind, and you have already achieved it.   Success is always available to us, even though it may be in a different route than you imagined.

The biggest mystery is that thoughts are energy.  And, therefore, you are what you create.  This is not new, and it is not either good or bad.  It is a state of being.

The question becomes, would you rather be stuck or rolling?

Blessings,

Judy

My Soul Says Ward Yourself

The poster says:  Glance backward.  Look heavenward.  Reach outward.  Press onward.   — Thomas S. Monson

**************************************

My soul tells me that I must ward myself.  The old meaning of ward was to protect.  I look at this poster and I laugh!  What a contradiction it is!  

Back ward.  Protect yourself from the back, from the past.  That’s good advice.

Out ward.  Protect yourself from the outside and yet you must reach out.  What courage that takes!  Can I do it?  I will have to see.

Heaven ward.  Oh my!  Protect yourself from Heaven, and yet gaze up to it.  It is a measurement of the distance of where I am and where I aspire to go.  Do I have the strength to stay the course?  I know not at this time.

On ward.  Well, I protect myself from going on – that is going forward, and I must yet press to go there.  This is a stasis point, and one place where I do see people getting stuck.  What can I do to move beyond this?  I believe.  I move on.

Blessings,

Judy

My Soul Says “No Limits”



Today my soul speaks to me and asks me to go higher and farther than I have been before.  I accept the challenge.  Yet, I do not know what to expect.

Then, the surprises start coming!  I go into a deeper meditation than ever before.  I do not see everything, yet I see some scenes happen so clearly, beginning to end, before I even start the situation.  I have precognition.  I can change the outcome.  I can touch things that were not touchable for me, yesterday.  

I have grown.

Blessings,

Judy

Donkey on Life

donkey

Donkey talks about being the guide that leads you safely over rough ground, through dry terrain, and up the side of mountains.  Donkey teams with you so that you have guidance on:

  • Being surefooted
  • Being able to go the distance, no matter how hard the struggle
  • Being able to push or to pull you up a steep hill
  • Being able to survive on just about any food

If Donkey is now coming in to your life, you are very lucky.

April 1 And Change

 


The poster says:
If we don’t change, we don’t grow.  If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living. —-Gail Sheehy


April 1 is a commonly called April Fool’s Day.  You can read more about that on this blog post - https://www.lightstationwisdom.com/2025/04/april-1-for-love-and-fools.html.

April is the change month.  Everything changes. We move from winter into full tilt spring.  Yes, spring comes earlier in some places.  Where I am, April is when the birds nest, the crocuses are out, and the trees bud.  You can feel the change in the air in people, too.  People are outside more and seem more open and friendly.  

When we talk about change, it means the physical changes of course.  However, it also includes the mental and spiritual changes that happen to folks when they feel the surge of life when they are out in Nature.  Nature has a way of bringing us into balance - getting out of our head and into our heart.  We feel and absorb and grow.

Many blessings,

Judy

Touch The Moon



The Angels say that we are too focused on the material.  To translate, what they mean is that we do not dream the lofty dreams that our Ancestors had.  Instead, we are caught up in texting, tweeting, face-booking, emailing, and gaming.  All things we do with our heads down to our phones, ipads, tablets, or computers.  We stare into technology instead of reaching out to the Universe at large.  

Today, try to touch the Moon.  Imagine all the ways that it might be possible.  What would it mean to you?  To others?  

Blessings,

Judy

Elk and Friends

elk1

Elk always knows where the sweetest grass is, and where the water runs clean and pure.  The legends speak of Elk’s ability to talk with the earth, the rocks, the trees, and all that is with them.  If you look in the picture above, you can see the face of a guardian in the rock face.  The Guardians look after the Earth and the animals.  The Guardians are friends to the Elk, and protect them while their antlers are growing.

Appreciate Your Parents


clip_image001

The picture says:   Heartbreaking image by an Iraqi artist taken in an orphanage.  This little girl has never seen her mother, so she drew a mom on the ground and fell asleep with her.  

“Appreciate what you have, since you don’t know what you’ve got until its’s taken away from you….That’s when it is too late.”

I have nothing that I can add to this.
