What Are You Thinking?

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’!

Blessings,

Judy

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.

Blessings,

Judy

Work To Inspire Self

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.  

Blessings, 

Judy

You Are Unique

 

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

 

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,

Judy

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.  

Blessings,

Judy

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,

Judy

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,

Judy

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,

Judy

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,

Judy
