I have not been posting blogs because I had a medical emergency so have been out of circulation for about ten days.
I am still in the recovery stage so I will be posting every other day.
Thanks for your patience and for sticking with me.
Many blessings,
Judy
When someone constantly badgers us with their ideas about what they are hearing and need to tell us, whether they have our permission or not, I call the person a “spiritual bully”. This means that they believe they have some divine right to tell you what ever they think about you and what you are doing, even if it is only their opinion, and typically, they get angry at you if you don’t take their advice.
One of the first laws of the universe is “harm no one (none)”. This means that you do not violate a person’s physical, emotional, mental, or spiritual space, without permission. To do so is to set out to intentionally harm them. This happens so often with teachers and mentors with their students or followers. It happens when someone feels that they are more powerful than someone else, and that power is used to force the “someone else” to take on tasks that they might not otherwise do.
Some ideas for coping with spiritual bullies are:
It is here! The New Year! 2024!
We all look forward to a wonderful, fresh start when a new year rolls around. What are you looking for? Improved health? A new job? Better relationships with family and friends? A trip to a faraway place?
These are all wonderful goals. Before you look to the future, take a few minutes to think about what things did not go well in 2023. See if you can decipher why those events went from perfect to chaos. Remember to take responsibility if you had a role in why things did not go according to plan. If the fault was another person or group of people, maybe look at whether you need to have them in your life. We all need to shed the things and people that do not serve our life.
I suggest that you add a couple of things to your goals. These are:
-regular exercise
-meditation at least once a week or more
-deciding to put healthy, wholesome food into your body
-being loving everyday
I do wish each of you a fantastic 2024! I believe that for all the wars and corruption in our politics around the world, that 2024 will be a positive year for all people, if the person lets it be.
Happy New Year!
Many blessings,
Judy
For those of you that have asked questions about how to set your intentions for the new year, I would like to share a beautiful ritual that one of my friends sent to me several years ago.
I do not use this at New Years, however, this ritual is certainly right for that purpose. I do use it to set intentions for any time. It is powerful to use this ritual with the New Moon.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
This is the initial technique - Setting Your Intentions for 2023 or any other time:
You start by asking yourself 4 questions...
Then you write your answers. I feel into my body to identify in my heart what I am being drawn to create from the year. The MOST IMPORTANT part is to write it as if it has already happened.
As an example / template, here is an excerpt in part of what Maureen Collins (an artist) wrote for the category of business:
I am so grateful that this year became such an amazing journey of openness and discovery in my business, as it moved into the corporate world and lecture stage larger than ever before. I was able to deliver my shared vision via “What If? The Movie” through divine energy to hundreds of thousands of souls that were not only open to the information but contributed to the content collectively... AND they further delivered it to many more through word of mouth. This wisdom known to us all was a huge success with so many experiencing heart felt shifts and changes through the material offered by many like-minded souls. It became a place of safety and conversation for all who viewed it, and grew to include new audiences of those opening to the materials being offered by me and other contributors. The opportunity for the community to converse with one another about their own positive belief and pattern changes was a blessing and a joy to my heart, showing me the possibilities for all communities of the world. I loved watching and hearing the shifts and changes clients and friends and family were experiencing as they also awakened to how amazing and powerful they truly are, and reveled in the moments they shared with others in the community ...which triggered more openings and shifts and more sharing and so on. What fun... and so effortless and flowing... I felt like a kid again with all the discoveries...
You get the idea... write it as if it has already happened AND makes sure you include how you "felt" when it happened. Do this for each of the categories (there may be some overlap but the categories are designed to allow for specifics in those four areas of your life). This is a POWERFUL exercise that almost acts as plan for the year but flows through and creates a vibrational resonance with what you are desiring. You can do this over the next couple of days... I promise you it will really make a lovely impact. Then print it out post a couple of copies in places you will regularly see them to remind you what you are creating.

Ritual: Burn and Release from Maureen Collins…
On a sheet of paper, I write out all of the things from the current year that I've outgrown, no longer want in my life, no longer work for me, and anything else I feel I want to shed and leave behind. On a separate piece of paper, I write all of the things I can think of and feel that I want to grow and expand in the new year. I then burn each paper in separate dishes or shells, making sure all pieces are turned to ashes. Then, when cooled, I put them into separate envelopes or containers (film canister, Ziploc baggie, etc.) and mark "to shed" and "to grow" on the container. Around 5 minutes before midnight, I start visualizing all the things on the "to shed" list, and see them slip away, see them blown away and washed away, out of my energy field, out of my life and out of my reality. I go out side and pour the "to shed" ashes into my hand and let the wind scatter the ashes away and release them and all they re present, as the old year fades away.
After midnight, after blessing the new year, with the second container "to grow", I visualize all of these goals, desires, etc. coming to fruition, to this level of reality. I bring that envelope down to the garden, and with a stick dig a small hole, then plant these ashes in the earth, near a tree or in a special place, (for those in apartments, I encourage them to use their favorite houseplant). The ashes are a reminder of the life cycle, the power of nature and the honoring of Mother Earth, that these seeds of hopes and dreams are nurtured into reality, in the coming year. This is a ritual that I've shared with many people, and even had a group in Ireland do it one New Years! You may want to try this and tweak it and do it a way that suits you.
Happy New Year and many blessings!
Judy
GOOD BYE, 2023!
I hope that you get to party with family or with friends. I hope that you celebrate all the good things that happened this year. I hope that you bless the things that did not go according to plan and set them behind you.
I think that we celebrate the ending of each year because we believe the next year will be so much better! We all hope to find new ways of doing things, lots of abundance, lots of love from new relationships and from existing friends and family.
I wish you a happy New Year’s Eve!
Blessings,
Judy
My meditations of late have been quite thought provoking for me. Different beings come in to talk to me, and to guide me, or, to ask me to share information.
This morning, a being that identified itself as “The Spirit Of Water” asked to come into my space to share some thoughts. I asked the being how I could help. It said to pass on this message.
For billions of years, there has been an abundance of water on this planet. There was always enough water for all manner of animals, fish, fowl, and creepy crawly things to have water for nourishment. There even has always been enough water for man because hydrogen and oxygen combine to make more, when more is needed. Although my water has been poisoned in many places, it is still plentiful, and can be cleaned.
Understand that water is healing. It cleanses out the body. It feeds the cells and thus the blood. It pours oxygen into Earth bodies to keep them strong. It ignites the food to help it break down and provide nourishment. Next to air, water is the bringer of life.
Now more than ever, in this time of change, all humans need to drink an abundance of water. It is so available, and yet humans are drinking coffee and sweet juices and carbonated drinks – drinks that are toxic and deplete the oxygen. Stop drinking so much liquid that is not water. How can water heal you if you only drink a glass or so a day? Let water be of service to you and to the world.
Blessings

The Once and Future Stars of Andromeda

The Angels say that the spiral of life can be found every where on Earth, as well as out in the stars. They say that our Ancestors could travel great distances without compasses because they could read directions in the stars, even though the paths were spiralling around the Earth.
To our Ancestors, following the stars meant that one received clear direction about which way to travel. And, when they could not see the stars, the people stayed put. The one constant in life, beside the Sun rising and setting and the Moon lighting up the night, was the stars, and where they appeared.
The Angels tell us now that if we follow the stars, and look at where they were ten and then five years ago compared to where they are now, that something has shifted. It could be that the entire Universe has shifted, or, it could be that the Earth has shifted orbit. The stars tell us that all is going a new direction. This is not good or bad, simply different. That means that there are no precedents about what may happen. Each day is brand new, ready to be opened like a big envelope full of newsy letters.
This is a time to follow the stars.
Many blessings,
Judy
