Mia's Moments

I replaced my Barry Manilow CD yesterday (I wore my other one out)
and of course, I been playing it in my car today.
But, it made me cry, so it's been relegated to the boot.
There must be something I am hanging onto.

April 1st, was 6yrs ago today I saw my last grandchild born and as he was making his way into the world, I was blessed to see his parents angels beside them and his also after his birth.

It's been a beautiful day here today, almost like summer, blue sky, sunhine and no wind.
Got my washing dry again!

The full wishing moon is building Mia, thus tears.  But tears cleanse and leave a lighter heart.  What a wonderful memory of 6 years hence.

Aha, another bloomin'moon!
Thanks for telling me (hug)

I haven't been sleeping well lately, dropping off about 3 or 4am, and arising 7am when the alarm goes off.
Last night I took 2 x Valerian capsules and actually slept for an hour then awoke, this went on all night!
But I do feel more refreshed this morning.

And .... I dreamt, but I was still dreaming during the awaking moments, so maybe not a dream.

Someone, a man, told me to look and listen, so I did.
There was a table with 4 people sitting around it, 2 men and 1 lady, not sure who the other was.
The lady was called Heather.
In the middle of the table was a wooden planter, with sweetpeas, hyacinths and lily of the valley in it.
They smelt gorgeous.
The people were talking to me and I answering them.
I was real excited, cos I knew they were spirit and I was actually TALKING and LISTENING to them lol
Unfortunately, I cannot remember the conversation, as usual lol

Now during the day yesterday and a few times previously, I have smelt those same flowers.
Not only at home (I cannot have flowers indoors cos daughter has problems) but at work and he smelt them too!
Sage/Debs

Ah Mia, it seems this is a week for visions, dreams, tactile moments of touch and scent....others have said the same to me.  Sleep is disturbed and sporatic as well, even for me. I keep being awakened at about my 1:30 am.  The some one needs me thing feeling.  
Perhaps slipping an amethyst under your pillow will help, a bloodstone in a dish of water will keep one in sleep and encourage dreams...if you wish it.
I love when the scents follow us...like angels hovering.
mia

The last two nights I have slept very well.
Saturday morning I awoke at 5am, completely refreshed and thinking it was 7am.
I had not woken once! That is almost unknown for me!
Last night I awoke several times as usual, but I did slep well inbetween.

I play CD's or have the radio playing in my car all the time, I drive my car a lot each day.
Sahje's thread led me to notice I am hearing a lot of 'alone' songs. Leo Sayer, Alone Again Naturally, Bee Gees, I Don't Want to be Alone. Elvis, Are You Lonesome Tonight, Barry Manilow, Lonely Together, lots. lots more.

Thing is, I am unsure if I DONT want to be alone.
Am I scared to?
Methinks so.
I treasure my independence too much to share.
And I don't want to go thru another break up.

Another beautiful day here.
I been stuck indoors though, doing a 'sit' and the lady I been sitting I cannot get outside by myself.
The dear told me to **** off too!
Ah well, I have had worse lol

I hoping it's like this tomorrow for my day off
Time Traveler

Mia -- Please don't forget, there is an ENORMOUS difference between being alone and being lonesome. I have been alone a very long time & I love it. I am very very very rarely lonesome, tho.

I love my independence and well, admittedly, complete control over my environment (well, as much as possible).  I realize I am blessed to enjoy my oneness and not pine for something else. It's not for everyone.

But, please remember, it is possible to like being alone. A "twosome" is a societal thing and most media tells you that's the way it should be........but, it's not for everyone, really! -- tt (don't want to make a wrong impression - I love company and companionship. But not ALL the time.)
mia

Yesterday, I had a sort of fear of going thru traffic lights, I was very wary of them turning red, and I kept an extra eye out for people standing by them.
Then as I was approaching a set on the way home a bloomin' bird pooed on my windscreen, not a little one either, was more like an albatross!
I was temporalily blinded til I moved my head and it really made me jump, well, cos this happened I went thru those traffic lights when they were on RED!!!
This made me think about other thoughts I have had which have come true shortly after.
This doesn't happen to me! lol

tt, what's the difference then? between being alone and lonesome? xx
mia

Had a lovely day today.
It was my day off and I spent most of it in my front garden.
I weeded and weeded and dug roots out, strimmed the  lawn,  raked leaves and grass and swept and tidied.
Phew, just reading that tired me out, lol.
Then I needed to go to the garden centre for plants.
Next door to it is Pizza Hut, so daughter and I went there for dinner, not knowing it was Happy Hour, which means 2 meals for £7.50  q3
I got some heathers and lavender for the garden, which I shall put in later.
I have coloured daughters hair for her, had a nap, done a huge pile of ironing and watched Heroes, sharing a box of Maltesers with daughter  q13
Its been a happy, productive day even though I am tired out now and going to bed zzzzzzzz
Loving you all lots and lots (((LTPLT)))
Time Traveler

Mia - To me, the meanings of the words are:

Alone: Solitary, but content within yourself. I can look at a beautiful tree or sunset while I am alone and appreciate it totally for itself, without the need to share it with anyone. .

Lonely: Solitary, but feeling that another human being is needed or longed for, in order that a situation, sight or sound can be fully appreciated. The company of others completes any scenario to the best ending.

I am alone by choice, but luckily almost never lonely. The few times I have found myself lonely, seem to be short and seldom. Yes, I have my downtimes for sure, but somehow, I love being solitary and in control of my mood and my life.

Alone is not only the good things, but the dubious. Like completely relying on yourself, regardless of the situation.  Yes, friends & family are irreplaceable sometimes, but in the end, there's only one person you can depend on -- yourself.  I do love my family & friends, but I need myself to be complete and competent.

Come to think of it, with the lives I've led, there's not many other ways I could have made it through.  I'm probably not saying all this right. -- tt
Sage/Debs

Yes TT, you speak well and with good words.  I too live alone and so very rarely lonely..I like my company...but do long, once in a while for real human...but I want an honest true one, fussy ain't I?  
I have learnt to be stronger, more gentle and accepting being alone.  The diamond in the coal so to speak, while getting older, farm things get harder, but I do keep challenging myself..boredom isn't around much.

I am so pleased you had a wonderful warm fulfilling day. q13
mia

Mum made me laugh today.
I sent her the dates of the Wishing Moons that Sahje posted.
Last year she 'wished' and all but one has happened for her.

She texted me this morning to say she made her wishes, all 19 of them, and put them in the 'angels hands' (its a figurine).

I replied 'poo! I forgot' Then realised its 7th today.

Well, mum replied when I told her.

'Everything happens for a reason. My wishes are 1st in the line'

Lol (((mum)))

Had to take son to A+E tonight, his neck is seized up, poor lad is seized up all over, he not eating or sleeping :(

Ah well, he knows I love him and I am here when he needs me.
Sage/Debs

q5  Mum's rank and she knows it.  
I am still thinking bout my wish, has to be worded just right.
19 of em eh?  wow q9
mia

TT, I am so sorry, I meant to reply to you but didn't.
I understand now, and I am happy to be alone :)
But I do have my daughter here, so I cannot say if I would be lonesome if she wasn't.
I hope I wouldn't be.
Many thanks for replying ((hugs))
mia

Well, I only got 45 mins tomorrow morning and 30 mins tomorrow evening to work.
So, if grandson doesn't descend on me to steal my pc, I want to give the house a good going over then bathe and meditate for as long as I need to.
I feel I am slowly going off track again and want to catch me before I go too far :)
Mustn't forget the wishing moon tonight :)
mia

I went outside to wish on the moon, she was so big, majestic, beautiful, I stood admiring her, loving her, drawing in her whatever.
And promptly burst into tears ... so, no wishes for me.
Methinks we have an odd relationship, I feel its like, love me from a distance or you gonna get hurt.

We have had beautiful weather, no housework has been done at all!
If daughter hadnt cooked and washed up, we would have had s/wiches and a pile of dirty crockery lol

I been weeding, planting, sweeping and clearing.
My fence is almost treated, I kidnapped my eldest g/son and his mate y/day, mmm, praps I shouldn't have. I had to go over their work again, no worries, they will know better next time he he he, I training them now lol
I have to get behind the trees and bushes to finish it off.
Hope no spideys fall on me *shudder*

I found lots of woodlice and ants under the fence, good job I am using a treatment that doesnt harm wildlife and plants.
I wonder if there is one that repels them .........

It's raining at the moment, no worries, I am off to Bury St Edmonds today, son has invited us to dinner :) Mum is coming too.

So, I better have my shower and tidy up a bit.

You know, if my fences were higher I could just walk outside in that rain in my birthday suit.
I'd frighten the ants and woodlice away wouldn't I  q22

Ramble over  q13

When we lived in Idaho I had no neighbors and when the mosquitoes weren't awful I would often go skyclad under the full moon..... now I have too many neighbors and a road out front tends to keep me in the house if I am going to be naked...lol
mia

When I was with hubby, our last home was a bungalow, with about 10ft bushes all the way around.
One day we had a huge thunderstorm, now I love thunderstorms.
It was very humid, without thinking I stripped off and went outside.
The rain was heavy, but warm on my skin.
I'll never forget the feeling of freedom, being one with the earth and sky.
The energy of the storm, the rain on my bare skin, wet grass under my feet.
I forgot who I was for a while.
herding cats

Actually my very favorite is to swim in the moonlight wearing nothing......something I haven't done in a while..... but used to do quite often.....awful hard to find lakes and beaches where no people are anymore q12
mia

this is just a ramble.
I been trying to remember little things that happen to me during the day.
Like today, I saw 2 feathers, now once, when I saw a feather I would feel so happy, now it's just a feather :(
I have just finished talking to Tory, she had her webcam on, it was so lovely to actually see her.
I got my webcam fixed up, but it has not been put on this tower and i cannot find the CD grr, so she cannot see me :(
Anyway I saw 2 spirits behind her, was amazing! she knew who they were.
And I gotta muzzy head from the 2nd one!
Today I been feeling lovely energies, made me feel mmm, happy, loving, excited ...
mia

I didnt even read to sleep last night.
I went to bed with lots of buzzing in my head, spirit or Tory, I don't know, it sent me to sleep anyway.
I awoke at 6am, my head was spinning, like I was dizzy. I was coming back from somewhere.
Things happen to me, I cannot explain, its like I have no control over a lot of my life.
Whereas others know why, where and when and who *shrug*
But I just plod along. I survive.
My mum had some garden ornaments stolen from her back garden yesterday, was a shock, cos they stood under her bedroom window.
My sister went to town today and brought some bolts for the back gate.
She feels safer now.
I dunno what to do tonight, I got no work on and no one in chat anywhere *sigh*
I spose I'll see wots on tv or meditate.
Sage/Debs

Reiju is 9pm soon your time Mia, step out and catch it then the chat room will be full after maybe
mia

I just been chatting to spof52, gosh he's hard work!
I found a tarot class, I'll push in there lol
mia

I decided to shut down for a few days, if I can last that long. lol
Too much activity, things I don't understand happening, not even sure if they should be!
I feel I need a break.

I am gardening and fence painting today, inbetween work.
I hope I can enjoy outdoors and nature closed down as much as I do open.
Sage/Debs

Mia, I just returned from me time.  Close down what you want, open to the nature you'll be in...me time is paramount to balance for folks like us, enjoy it!  New moon is next Friday so mind the energy shifts that make us feel a mite vulnerable....it'll pass.
mia

I did enjoy my garden work.
I was out there for 6hrs, before having to shower and get back to work.
However, I didn't stay shut down for long.
I gonna hav to practise closing and staying cl;osed.
I remember once putting a huge padlock on my crown and 3rd eye to keep them closed.
mia

Had my mum round for dinner today.
She sat in the kitchen watching me prepare dinner and said she felt a rush of happiness.
I looked at her and saw my dad standing behind her :)

Whilst eating dinner, she was facing the window, she said she saw a winding path in my garden, leading to the shed and some white painted stones lining the concrete path and small blue flowers.

I have felt quite relaxed today, sort of level, but not completely here.
I don't mean I was 'floating' more like I am not me.
Doh, I cannot explain ..........
This happens more and more lately.
the hermit

And you are at peace
mia

These last 4/5 nights, I have slept without reading, slept soundly, like one should.
However, last night, as soon as my head touched the pillow and I relaxed to sleep, my heas became heavy.
I saw waves of iridiscent colours, purple, blue, green, orange. swirling in my head.
Then I noticed faerie folk dancing among the colours and felt my eyes moving, like one does when dreaming.
And 'I' was listening to words/thoughts and answering them, but 'this me' couldn't hear them??
I opened my eyes and turned over, but when I shut them again, it all came back.
Also I felt a warmth in my spine, which travelled up into the back of my head, and stayed there.
I was awake during all this.
I wrote it down in a book which I keep beside my bed and the time was 12.10.
I went to bed at 11.30, light out about 11.50/12.00, after saying goodnight to daughter etc.
mia

I been thinking.
Almost everyone I know who is consciously on their path is ill, disabled or has something physically wrong with them which causes them pain.
I haven't.
And I have found that those who do have physical problems are always the gentlest, kindest, most thoughtful people.
I always feel small and insignificant beside them.

Maybe that's your weekness my friend

We all go through life with the cards that we are dealt
There are many people without visable problems
However, they live a life of many sufferings
We all create problems out of nothing
A healthy mind is sometimes worse than a limited one
A  health body is also limited by the person using it

One should never feel small and insignificant at any time
That is a big limitation in anyones life

We are all, what we are, treat everyone as you wish to be treated
And you can never go wrong

Love you Mia

Aha I understand.

I try to do that, yes I do.  However once a wise man told me if I go thru life "expecting" from others what I expect of me, I would go thru  life disappointed..so I do my best with it all.
mia

A few days ago I was meditating and this is what I wrote about the med.

MeditationI felt something near my crown, a prickling sensation, I sat still, it got closer and stronger.
I was thinkiong “oh poo! I forgot to protect!!”
So I quickly protected and asked angels etc to protect me too.


Then my crown started burning, I didn't know what was happening, still don't really, but I am ok …….. I think lol
I did awake early hours with a message in my head that I had received information and not to worry.
I am hoping it meant via the burning.

The following day my crown started itching, I found a spot, but it cannot be scratched away, and my crown still itches.


I didn't twin it to the med I had til I was in the shower this morning.

In the shower, I always have thoughts.
I was thinking about an  itchy ear I have and how I have thought it could be an implant, this brought me to my itchy head, is this an implant? and a dream I had 2 nights ago.

Dream
I was cleaning, shining crystalware. I was called to the one in charge. He was a black man. I asked him why he didn't recognise me cos I have worked for him for a long time.
He just looked at me, no emotion at all.


I rember being told the black man in my dreams is an other being.

I was talking to a friend on msn. I told her about the dream. She said the 'black ones' are using us as servants (I did feel like one) and want to learn from us for their own needs.

If these 'black ones' are baddies, I have to stop them fom taking me. Cos I am often with them.

I gotta add, I am not frightened or worried.
I just want to do the right thing.

I have asked around Starseed and UFO sites for their input and mailed many friends.

*sigh* what have I got myself into now?
lol, life is never boring!
mia

I am so fed up with this moon sadness I get.
There must be some way of either avoiding the moons energy or working with it.
Saturday my 14yr old g/son usually visits.
I was in no mood for him, he is a friendly lad, always talking and eating lol.
I was on the verge of tears all day, kept dropping things, spacing out (I did keep grounding)
And soo tired, I laid on the sofa most of the day dozing and watching tv.

I felt the mood lift late this morning, thank goodness!
Daughter and I drove to Dunwich Woods, was a lovely sunny day.
We saw the Exmoor ponies which were brought here.
They are so tame!
We meditated, then laid down and soaked up the sun, aaaah ....

I still not 100% but getting there :)

Almost forgot.
In my med yesterday eve. I saw a garden with a white unicorn laying down.

I stopped buying/reading newspapers and magazines several years ago.
Because the news was mostly bad and sad and it would sadden me, make me feel down.
I never watched the news on television for the same reason.

Now however, I want to buy a newspaper??
I know I can cope with tragedies, murders etc although that's not the reason I want to buy one.
I don't know the reason actually.

mmm, I think its cos I saw a headline in our local EDP about flash floods to be expected as the norm in coastal districts.

Also, I have started wanting meat!!!!!!!
Bacon and ham.

And after years of not being able to eat an egg, I had the yolk of a fried egg on Thursday, with no ill effects :)

Spiritualist Meeting 28/7/09

.I was tired, but determined to go to the spiritualist meeting.
I had to miss the previous week cos I was working.

We, (mum and I) were the first to arrive.
The president wasn't there cos she was in Norwich at a UFO meeting!!!
Wow! I am finding these people who are like me and it's so exciting!

Anyways, Debbie took us last night.
She did a wonderful med, took us on a journey.
I found a scallop shell on the beach, a lion was waiting for me in a cave.
I was given a citrine crystal and a quartz cluster to give to my mum, for clarity.

Then we had to pick a card from a pack called Titania, or something similar.
After holding it for a while, we handed it back and the chosen cards were then offered to us to choose again.
And we had to read it and then say who had picked it.
And ........... I got mine right.
I was 3rd to go, out of 9 people and 1st to get it right.
I was gobsmacked!!!

These people are so friendly and funny, no pretence, just wonderful.
I am so looking forward to going next week.

Poem For Cats

And God asked the feline spirit
Are you ready to come home?
Oh, yes, quite so, replied the precious soul
And, as a cat, you know I am most able
To decide anything for myself.

Are you coming then? asked God.
Soon, replied the whiskered angel
But I must come slowly
For my human friends are troubled
For you see, they need me, quite certainly.

But don't they understand? asked God
That you'll never leave them?
That your souls are intertwined. For all eternity?
That nothing is created or destroyed?
It just is....forever and ever and ever.

Eventually they will understand,
Replied the glorious cat
For I will whisper into their hearts
That I am always with them
I just am....forever and ever and ever.

I feel a peace today I have not felt before.
I feel connected to everyone and everything.
Dunno how long it will last, I hope forever.
I understand so much.
Little things.
I cannot put them into words, they just click into place as thoughts in my head.

Ah Mia, there's the way, hold it close and ride the wonder.

My Journey. part 1

Tuesday 22nd September 2009

I awoke early, sat in bed with my lap top.
I read something that was said about me on a board, it was so nice it made me cry.
That was the pattern of the day.
I was very emotional.
I had a strong feeling I would die on this holiday and I was worried about my daughter, we are so close, like twins and I was sooo worried about leaving her behind.
We set off and Amy asked if I wanted some music on.
That was better than trying to talk thru tears, so I agreed.
Then my dad appeared on the back seat, Amy noticed him first, then she saw angels encircling the car.
She always sees the angels when we go away
I tried singing to the songs as usual, sos Amy didnt notice anything was wrong.
Then, the Golden Lady came and spoke to me.
She said I would be going thru a death and rebirth.
Aha! I understood then lol
We arrived at Glastonbury after 6 hrs and 15 mins and 300 miles exactly.
Sage/Debs

Oh Mia...how amazing.  Tell us of your trip and journey and all.  I am glad you came home, and perhaps the trip was a small death of negativity, uncertainty? and an awakening of energy and light?  Glad you are home safe, hug Missy for me.
the hermit

Thanks for sharing Mia
mia

I made a journal each day.
It is all in notes, but I shall share all I can on an open forum.
The death/rebirth referred to the 'Journey'

Missy is so happy she is not alone, still hanging around me and trying her best to trip me up lol
I wish I could speak to her and hear her like you do xx

Actually, I did similar on the Journey with those I needed to understand.
I had to get inside them and feel/read them in a way I had never done before.

I shall try that!

q13  and love, mia xxx

My Journey Part 2

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wednesay 23rd Septenber 2009

I awoke, remembering I was in Glastonbury!
Wow!
I looked out of the window, and there were hills dotted with sheep, bushes and trees.
I wanted to be out there, with the grass under my bare feet.
It was drizzling with rain, all the better lol
By the time we were showered and dressed, filled with diesel and I had washed the windscreen and wipers, we were both hungry, so we went looking for food.
Then the shops called to us lol.
2 books, some crystals and a 2010 Unicorn calender later lol, time was getting short, so with a quick glance at the beautiful, majestic, mysterious Tor, we started for Wales.
I so loved the bridge! It is magnificent!
Where the overhead struts are it looks like the entrance to a spacecraft!
I was amazed!
And on my sat nav, you could see the water lol.
All went well til I got in the wrong lane and was taken all through Newport *sigh*
We finally reached Hill House in Llansteffan (sp) about 5pm.
The entrance was between terraced houses and went up almost vertically, it twisted and turned.
It was too narrow for a fire engine or ambulance and had high stone walls either side.
It was quite nerveracking!
After a cuppa, we went for a walk along the beach, took some pics, then back for a well earned sleep.
We were in Wales and I was falling in love with her.
I was at the retreat where I was going to be born again.
I felt calm and quietly expectant.
I sent reiki to all who had replied to my offer and to some who hadn't.
I had loads of energy and love in me and wanted to share it.

Some pics from our walk.
The bottom one, in it you can see a pink building. It is Hill House, the retreat we stayed in.

Oh Mia!  I feel like I am with you, I love this, thank you for sharing.  Hope for pics one time.  I can feel your purrrrrrrrrring.  Thank you for the healing.  xxx

I shall post some pics.
Gotta put them into photobucket first.
Love you lady  q13
mia

Thursday 24th September 2009

I awoke early after a disturbed nights sleep.
Amy was still sleeping sound, so I sat and sent reiki to all who had requested.
I was booked in for a deep tissue massage, after that I walked to the woods behind the house.
I felt restless.
This house is so peaceful, calm, quiet, grounded.
But I feel none of these things.
It’s like I am separate, not really here.

We decided to go to Kidwelly Castle.
As usual, I took a wrong turn ….
I turned off the road to find my self and my mobile alerted me to a text.
It was from my sister, I started to read it out loud, then realised she was telling me one of Amy’s rats had died overnight.

We carried on to the castle, but Amy was upset, so we decided to have some retail therapy.
So we went into Carmathan.
That went well, lunch too, but, on leaving Carmathan, the road out was being dug up and we didn’t know another route out, nor did the sat nav lol
But we made it eventually lol
Back at Hill House, we watched Mama Mia on Amy’s laptop.
Tomorrow is my Journey and I am pooing myself.

Friday 25th September 2009-
The Journey

I awoke early and lay in bed thinking ‘This is it, the 1st day of my new life’
I am so nervous, I feel sick.
I can’t believe I am doing this..Going to speak to a stranger my innermost thoughts, fears. They are so private and hidden away so deeply, I hope I don’t fight the process.

10am came and I walked to the Rose Suite, it is a circular sun house on the patio.
The beams are covered in rose quartz tumbled stones and along the ceiling edge are rose quartz chunks,
There is a HUGE dish of rose quartz tumbled stones with a rose quartz CANDLE holder in the centre.
Blankets and cusions cover the floor and a couple of wicker arm chairs for us to sit on are placed there.
I walked in and met Hoppi.

She asked how I was, I replied ‘very, very nervous’ she answered that that was a good sign.
Hoppi handed me a questionaire to fill in.
My name, dob, why I wanted to do the Journey etc.
Then she asked me a few questions.
She explained I would be led into a meditative state, as deep as I wanted to go and I would still be in control etc, etc.

Then we started.

Phew!
Every time I write a piece I am reliving it.
This is so hard.
But I started and I will finish.
lol, I feel weak now.
I have to do a bit at a time.
The above I done in three parts.
Its all in scribble, my shorthand and notes and I have to decipher it! lol
Sage/Debs

Take your time, if there's something you can't share, no worries!!! q18

The Journey continued

I had to go down some stairs, they were narrow and made of glass in my mind.
Each step I was to go deeper into meditation.
When I reached the bottom, I was to look at a thermometer lying on the floor and tell me from the numbers 1 – 10 how deep I was.
I replied 7
Hoppi asked if I wanted to go deeper, I replied ‘yes’
I got to 3
She asked again if that was deep enough.
I wanted to go to 1 or 0 cos I wanted to do this properly and I was worried I would hold back if I was not as deep as possible.

I had to have a guide or mentor with me, immediately Hoppi mentioned this, Hagrid from Harry Potter appeared.
I was happy with this.

Next I needed a vehicle to transport me and Hagrid inside my body.
I saw a glass egg as this.

Much now is either a haze or personal.

I cannot remember how, but I was at the age of 12, where I became stuck and Hoppi talked me through and again at age 9.

I had much to go through.

Hoppi had me get in a few peoples heads and see what they thought of the happenings.
Then I agreed to let each in turn get in my head for them to see what I thought and felt about it.

Then we all sat around a camp fire and I was sposed to say what I thought to each of them.
I refused to do so to one, cos I was afraid of the effect it would have on this one.
But I did so eventually.

Then I had to say how I wish things had been and how different it would have been for me.
Then I had to visualise my life as I had wished it.

There were apologies from all around the camp fire and hugs as we softened to one another.

Then it was back into the glass egg and up the stair case.

It semed like only 30 mins had passed. But it was 3 hrs and 5 mins.

Hoppi made me a cup of tea as I gathered my thoughts.

As we said goodbye, I asked for a hug.

I went back to my room and sat in the window seat.
I saw Hoppi get in her car, she glanced up to my window and waved.
Hoppi is another one I shall never forget.
Always in my heart.
Sage/Debs

I am honored to have read this and how you felt you could share it.  How wonderful and magical and Hoppi sounds like the perfect person for your journey.   q13

Mia,

I'm glad you are recording this so some of us can read through it as we are ready.

You experienced something that most of us will never have the opportunity to .......and in a place I cry to visit again.

Please bear with us.......

Ma---

There is no need for replies.
I am unsure as to whether I could reply to a thread such as this.
Sometimes the words fail to come.
All is well and as it should be  q13

Below are some views from my window.



My little motor.
She was pushed to the limit and did us proud.



The Rose Suite where I took the Journey.





The two above are the church at the bottom of the drive and the castle in the distance.

I was hoping I had some of the beach and bay.
Praps they are on Amy's camera.

After the Journey

I felt dazed and emotional.
We had planned to go to the castle, Llansteffan castle.
I needed to do something, so we set off.
I drove the car to the beach and we began the walk up the hill.
It wasn’t that steep, but was too steep for Amy, so ¾ of the way, we turned back..

I had seen some woods on the way up.
Opposite the entrance was a bench seat, so Amy sat on that, using her phone for internet whilst I wandered among the trees.
It was just what I needed.
I walked along weeping as I went.
I sat on a fallen tree, just sat there.
I have never cried so silently, it was like a bowl which was overflowing, no effort at all.

I saw squirrels and a skunk, I think it was a skunk, it was black and white, with a striped tail, like in photos and films.
I had my camera, but it was too fast.
I walked and sat and wept, walked and sat and wept.
Before I left the trees, I picked a fallen twig, another wand to be made.

We walked back to the beach and bought ice creams and chocolate, the remedy for everything 
Back at Hill House, I made dinner, washed up and got into bed, I was so tired.
Amy put a Merlin DVD on her laptop and we watched that.
I didn’t see the end of it, I was asleep.
mia

I looked up squirrel and skunk as power/totem animals;

Squirrel is prepared for anything that life may present. They are extremely adaptable and teach us to trust that with preparation our own life will be simple and safe.

Skunk: Self-confidence, self-esteem, self-respect,
creative energy, paying attention to intuition
and inner knowings
the hermit

And with all that should come self confidence
Enjoy the Journey
It's not over yet
Keep it going Mia
Keep it going
Sage/Debs

In our culture of the Red Ways both are very desired totems or guide animals.  You have been on a "Spirit Quest" on your last trip and journey, now it only continues what you have begun.  Enjoy the signs and travels....bless.
mia

What is a 'spirit quest' please?
Sage/Debs

Ah Mia, it is much like your journey.  With the People, a boy or young man (but sometimes a woman too) will go off alone, water, some nuts and dried fruits only... but in the old days not even that and no fire.  The person would go for 2-4 days without food or water to have their vision and know the path they are to walk and also discover their spirit animals.  
I went on one as a young girl in Colorado, then again last summer in my clearing for 4 days....I found my name, a new animal, and a vision of my Path.

Vision quests are mainly a Native American tradition. Boys take it usually in their early teens. The go off to an isolated and remote piece of land. Once there they will spend two to four days completely alone and cut off from everybody in the tribe. They will have no food or water. They will smoke tobacco and wait for the vision to come to them so that they can pass into manhood. They were and still are an integral part of the culture and are practiced by people today that are not of Native American descent.

Aaah! I understand :)

Meditation

We did a deep guided meditation at my development class.
Last week, I met Anouki an Atlantean.
He had blonde/yellow hair and such bright blue piercing eyes.
He was tall too.
Yesterday, I had Merlin again.
Anouki wanted to be with me, but Merlin was stronger.
We were asked to be shown our destiny, curtains opened and I saw the planets, stars and a midnite blue sky.
I was really excited! I always said I am from the stars and have something to do with them workwise (I am grinning here lol)
Then we had to ask what our guides work is.
Merlin said he guides and teaches others like me across the planets :)
We then had to ask if we were in the right place and with the right people.
My answer was, for the moment I am where I should be.
Was a good night :)
mia

I meet an old aquaintance.
I join her group.
I do the Journey.
New aquaintance introduces me to another.
We gel, understand each other.
I find I need to learn to use a merkaba.
New friend knows and uses hers.
I am changing/have changed.
My thoughts, ideas, strengths are different now.
I have new concerns.
I don't yet know this new me.
I am a stranger.
Sage/Debs

Perhaps not a stranger but becoming whole now.
mia

Dunno about that.
I was feeling so confident, then this new thing came up and I gotta start all over again.

I had a reading this morning from one of the mediums I met yesterday at the MBS Fayre.
I told her all the 'happenings' and what I was confused about.
She has explained lots to me, those that came thru were those who already work with me and some who will be working with me.
I asked her not to tell me too much cos I am overloaded at the moment with info I have not digested yet.

All my fault.
I asked for more cos I was getting bored .
Sage/Debs

Ah dearest Mia, but you can ask for less as well to be able to chew and digest the new til hungry again.  My love and support are always with you.
