TRUST

I forgot to mention yesterday that I have been back at the PC writing this week.

For a while I wasn't writing much, life got busy, I got ill, excuses, excuses, excuses. Then a couple of nights ago some of the characters from Winner acme to visit in my dreams- and when i woke in the morning I knew that their continuing story needed to be told. They insisted on it!

I was a bit worried that I'd have lost my mojo, and that the muse may have deserted me, but plucked up the courage, opened the 'sequel' file (it does have a working title, but not sure of it yet!) and asked for my characters to return and tell their stories. No sooner said than done. Aaron - one of the members of the boy band Bounce stepped up to the plate and started to tell his story -and once again it all feels so organic- I'm loving it. That voice over my shoulder that puts the story together is still chattering away- and now is asking why I'm writing this and not concentrating on book 2 in the Joey et al saga- and that's a pretty good question -I will be back with the whole mob tomorrow- which is quite important for me, as when I spoke to Nick today who has already read 'Winner' he expressed his desire to hear 'what happens next'. Hold tight young man, I'm going to set to, and hopefully in a couple of months the sequel will hit the lulu website.

While talking to Nick today, which was better than 'really nice' I spoke my dreams aloud for one of the first times- I am a writer, and would love to concentrate on that more. To walk in the summer and write the rest of the year- now that's how I see my future.  So Universe I'm sure you're listening (when aren't you) and even if not I know you hear, so watch this space.

To check the Universe is on-line I decided to take an 'Oracle Card' so grabbed the box 'Wisdom of the Hidden Realms' and this one fell out before I had chance to choose anything:

The message:

Always Allies and never Challengers, the Winged Wise Ones represent the aid of all the angels.

When you enter their realm, know that your sincere prayers will be answered according to the will of the Divine.

This also represents Divine intervention and the potential of miracles to heal and transforms as if by magic.

 Have faith, whatever your circumstances: Heavenly beings are watching over you.

The Winged Wise Ones give you a glimpse of the future by offering messages whispered on the wind.

These are translated within you as inspired thought, instantly unravelling the past and revealing the present.

 Be aware of the Higher Consciousness in you.

This is a good time to observe your thoughts through meditation.

Who is observing those thoughts?

That self is kin to the Winged Wise Ones, who have come to help you soar.

Yup - The Universe is listening should I have doubted it.  By the Way I love this deck of Oracle cards. It feels right with me - it really resonates.

Synchronicity is ruling my world for sure. Before starting to write this entry I tried to access the Lovely Michelle's blog, but kept getting an error message- I've just got in and read her day's entry- Trust your vibes and Abundance - How cool is that- another message to tell me to get a grip of myself and realise I know where I am going.

As for other news this morning I eventually got to Ikea, thanks to dear Liam, and our guest room is now full of cardboard boxes as we plan to assemble everything in a few days time.  This afternoon I chatted with Nick- I felt he needed a call, and it was great to catch up. This evening I've had some good classes, and am now toasty and full of Tony's delicious Spag Bol. Mmmm Good day all round.

A message I need to hear...

This morning whilst walking the dogs I found a tarot card in the street. Just lying there on its own in the middle of the pavement near the bins. SO I kinda thought it must be a message for me, so picked it up and turned it over:

I had no real idea what meaning it could possibly have so when I got back home I surfed the net for a meaning and posted a request on Facebook to see if any of my chums could help with interpreting what it might mean for me.

I then had a meeting with my dear friend (and Spanish Teacher) Victoria. I had approached her a while ago to translate 'The Magic' into Spanish with me. She has now agreed (in principal - she wants to translate a few pages before giving a definite answer to see if she's happy with the task). I have complete confidence in her abilities. I have this afternoon e-mailed her the first half of the book, as it was too big to e-mail all in one go. Victoria was going to start this week and on Saturday we'll chat again.

In the car on the way to Victoria's and back I was pondering the meaning of the card, and then again on the way to school.

So far I've had the following thoughts from kind friends on Facebook:

"The very general meaning indicates withdrawal from the outer world to activate the unconscious mind and also a teacher who will come to help begin the process and show the way.So if you have been pondering something in particular (especially if you have asked for guidance) it may mean that this guidance is on it's way. It feels like it's a confirmation for you, particularly for some thoughts that you were having on the walk. Sounds a bit airy fairy but it's what I got!!!!" CL

"What I got was protect your space and generate your vision:)" PC

‎"... and I got... time for an inner journey also... interesting.." JC

"what if feel is maybe you need to stay close to your home for a while since it has only been a few months since you have put yourself out there with publishing 2 books."    DW

I've also found a load of stuff on the net. Then on the  way home from school I was pondering it again when my dear guardian spirit asked "When will you learn to trust in yourself, you know the answers". Hmmm just when will I? SO I asked him what he thought. His reply was again "You know. Trust and go with it" So I stopped on a bench and thought for a moment- not for long it was too bloody cold to sit out side so late. When I got back home I looked at the card again. An old man following a light in his lantern, possibly showing others the way, but definitely lighting the darkness, and by the look on his face happy doing what he's doing. Then I looked more closely at his face - grey straggly beard, receding hair, furrowed brow. Yes I see it! I can be a bit of a hermit, I like being in my own company, but like sharing my talents too. Just recently I've been getting messages that I'm on the right track, on my path and I feel this one is telling me pretty much the same. So all the suggestions above fit in well with my own interpretation- I hear it "When will I trust my own intuition? When Will I accept I'm on the right path?" Time to get the message I guess. Look out 2012 this is my year......
