Count your blessings

 With all the sadness in the world right now it’s a time to count ones blessings and be grateful for the life you have. The suffering and the loss to many families is truly overwhelming and we know not where or when someone will be stuck by the hands of fate. 

Never take life for granted because one never knows when life will take a turn for the unexpected. This is a rule that I have lived by since I was very young and have myself been through many heartbreaks and loss. I have had my life hang in the balance of fate more than once through no fault of my own and my husband has had the grim reaper shadow him most of his life. This makes us more aware and sensitive to the suffering of others. The saying, there go I but for the grace of god, is something that one must bear in mind with all the suffering in our world right now. 

Keep it simple, keep it honest and true as you make your way through life and try not to leave pain in your path as you negate your earthly journey. We are all accountable for our actions in the end, but to leave the world knowing that one has done good deeds lightens the soul and eases the conscience at the end of the journey. Now more than ever we must be responsible for our own actions and not contribute to the current evil pervading our world. We are witnessing only the beginning of what is to come, but the effects will last more than a lifetime. 

Go gently and live from your heart and count your blessings that you are not one of the unfortunate souls to suffer the horrors of war, homelessness and poverty. One never knows when fate reins down an unjust blow upon the innocent. 

Blessings, Warm and fuzzy hugs

US Federal Election 2025 and J D Vance

 I don’t know if other psychics are getting the same vibe from JD Vance, but that guy doesn’t just creep me out, he scares me too. I get the feeling that he will take over from Donald Trump at some stage and that worries me. Trump is a business man and is often saying inappropriate things, but J D Vance is a different kettle of fish altogether. Being a Leo star sign he will not be happy unless he is in charge of anything. Leo’s are leaders and never followers, they need attention, to be noticed and adoration from everyone. They don’t do second fiddle. So keep this in mind as you go to the polls America. 

I have not done an actual reading on JD Vance yet though I do intend to do that tomorrow. I don’t think he is going away. As I have said for the past few years there will be a Republican president for 2025, and he is a young dark haired man. I do believe that Trump at some point will hand over power to Vance or else Vance does the main work on the global stage. 

This guy is not shy and when push comes to shove he will not back down. He is patriotic all the way, on his own terms. I will update this post asap with more information in the meantime please check out this link below on the new US Republican Party president. I have been seeing this man since 2021. 

https://psychictarotreadingwithalexfulford.blogspot.com/2024/01/the-new-us-republican-party-president.html

Sunday 15/9/24

As a Leo, JD Vance is a leader Leo being a fire sign it is a star sign that puts the person in the heart of things to demonstrate their skills, abilities etc. Here We see J D Vance come across as a stable and well balanced individual with a legal and military background. In this layout, the knight of cups shows him protected and perhaps defensive. The knight can be seen as a messenger bringing a message of peace or hope to the team. He is prepared for the work to be done and is no shrinking violet in conflict but he must keep his temper under control.

He will try to uphold the law as he sees it, however he is only human and must guard against greed and all the other temptations. Currently Mr Vance has an emotional sea to navigate both in the US and globally. 

He must think very carefully over every action or inaction in his role from here on in. Because the eyes of the world are on him. He can get hot under the collar and needs to keep this in check. Vance has his eye on the ball and will not play second fiddle to anyone, that is a Leo or any fire sign for you. They need action and are need constant stimulation. Mr Vance is very firm on his decision making and he will defend them to the end; perhaps through stubbornness. Timing is the key, he needs to learn to bide his time before responding or reacting. I feel he enjoys the finer things in life that hard work and money brings. We know that he has military discipline behind him and has leadership skills from his time in the military to advance his career. He hasn't done too badly to date, and I see that he is a hard talking deal maker.

 It may be what the Republican party needs as a person out front showing strength and leadership with world leaders. He must not jump in without sound knowledge of subject matter unlike Trump. He seems to study the game board first them moves his players. I do think that he would make a more stable president than Donald Trump. Mr Vance does show signs of being fair, yet at times he can be closed off. Heaven help those that upset him because he will have them on toast. He does have a lot of clout behind him; this worries me though because it may not be good for the US as a nation nor for the international standing. This is due to the powerful backers behind the scenes, it is not about lives, or doing what is right. It is about power and money. I do not see this as a unifying of the US. 

I have already said I do not like the energy from JD Vance and I do feel that the public must exercise caution, as both sides of the political spectrum spell bad news for ordinary Americans and the world. We need transparent  unity and diplomacy to move forward and I do not see this happening. 

Granny‘s Kitchen

 Oh remember granny’s kitchen, when the sunlight came streaming through the window. The early morning baking and the aroma wafting through the house. A child’s excitement and delight because she’s making you something nice. Is it cakes or biscuits or an apple pie for after dinner? You’ll have to wait and see. 

Today is her baking day, and the day is in full swing, she smiles at you lovingly as she works the dough to bake some bread. Granny loves to bake wholesome treats and shares them lovingly with her family. A blessing that’s for sure, after all what is childhood without a granny’s love and care. Her warmth and tender kindness that children hold so dear. It’s not like mum or dad’s love, no it’s a special kind of magic that nothing can compare. It’s like a super power or a secret magic spell that only a granny can possess. That warmth and tingling feeling that soothes us off to sleep, that special loving warmth that takes away our fears. Safe in bed and loving thoughts that takes us off to sleep,  excited for tomorrow and the fun of being with granny;  building memories that we will hold onto forever. 

Oh how we love dear granny who makes us feel so special, oh how we love dear granny, we want to stay at her house for ever and always be her treasure. Oh how we love dear granny that knows our favourite things. 

Even in the cold and rainy weather granny’s kitchen is full of warmth and comfort. It may be gloomy outside but it’s always sunny in her kitchen. Pull up a chair and make yourself comfy while granny tells you stories of her childhood. See that little tear in her eye as she fondly remembers her own childhood, a time so long ago. To her it was only yesterday but to you it’s an eternity not something you can fathom. 

You sit there enthralled by her memories and stories, you ask her awkward questions and she replies with a laugh, oh, I am not that old. One day you shall remember the special moments of your childhood and share them with your children. You will fondly remember the kitchen with the baking and the love. The cooking and the meals shared with the family. The nights you slept at granny’s house, and the tender loving care. 

The summer evenings and delicious meringues and special treats kept for such enchanting nights. The house is full of guests and granny has a special treat for you to play with while the adults enjoy their conversations. Knowing children get so bored with adults conversations, granny knows full well. Let me check the cupboard, I believe that I have something that you’ll like. 

Oh, granny it’s just what I wanted; you reply with sparkling eyes and a great big smile. Now run outside and play in the garden before it gets too dark. Remember to say thank you granny, you tell her that you love her, it warms her heart to hear. She’s the best granny that you ever had, nothing else compares to granny with her tender loving care, she will always be your granny the one you hold most dear.

Binging on lovely romantic movies over Easter

 Happy Easter everyone, 

I do enjoy the vibe of Easter from a seasonal perspective, the atmosphere and the weather at this time of year is sentimental to me, remembering childhood in Scotland. Spring in the northern hemisphere is lush and green with beautiful spring bulbs in bloom, especially daffodils, hyacinths and crocuses. I fondly recall visiting my grandparents at Easter and giving both of my grandmothers bunches of daffodils and chocolates every year. I love the fragrance of daffodils and hyacinths to this day and grow them in my garden as a wonderful memory of spring in Scotland. 

In Australia these flowers don’t bloom until August, September and October; so when it comes to Easter in Australia it’s still pretty hot in the mid to high 20’s Celsius, although if you live in the southern regions, the mornings are cooler. So I like to have a day to reminisce about childhood memories and watch old romantic movies while enjoying goodies.

Enchanted April is one of these feel good movies, about a small group of women that want to have a nice Easter holiday in Italy away from the rain and gloom of post WW1 England. It’s a warm and feel good movie where a beautiful romantic transformation takes place in otherwise dull and uneventful lives of these women. 

If you have never seen this 1991 movie, I highly recommend it as a must have in your DVD collection, to watch on a day when you feel flat and need a pick me up movie to bring back the warm and fuzzy vibe. 

Above is the cover of the DVD that I have, there are a few other covers, but the cast is the same. Joan Plowright, Miranda Richardson, Josie Lawrence, Polly Walker, Alfred Molina, Jim Broadbent and Michael Kitchens.

Another great favourite is Chocolate with Johnny Depp and Juliette Binoche. A different world away in  a simpler time and place with a message of acceptance. There is nothing nicer on a relaxing day to enjoy these quality movies and sipping tea from your favourite fancy tea cups while eating hot cross buns, or enjoying a bottle of sparkling wine in the afternoon. 

 Make it a day of fun doing what makes you happy. I hope Easter Bunny stops by on Sunday with plenty Easter eggs for you. 🐇🐰🐰🐣🐥🐤

Warm and fuzzy hugs everyone 

Savour the sunlight

Tis the end of summer yet the days are still warm. The nights quickly draw in and the feelings of the day start to fade. I yearn for an extra hour of sunshine to bask in the golden sun. Too much to do and so little time, as a mother’s work has to continue. Indoors and hurriedly preparing for dinner; and wishing I was in  the garden doing nothing but sitting watching the sun go down. Please take your time sunlight, I want to savour this precious time, why hurry and miss the feeling of peace and perfection of nature’s wonders. 

 Savouring the sunlight as long as I can, the singing of birds and the humming of traffic in the distance blend into the experience as my mind wanders in a flight of fancy. How I wish I was a child in an ever lasting sunshine, not a care in the world. Why can’t I have the fun and adventure like the famous five? Endless summer days with picnics and fun, not toil and endurance. Just a chance for an adventure that fills one with joy. Not I though, reality bites as there’s chores to be done, I have no time to sit in the sunshine and dream. Something is always calling me to attention no matter what, a mother’s heart is pulled this way and that. Battered and crinkled with endless routines and restless sleep. 

Still tomorrow’s a new day, I shall try again, to grab some late afternoon sunshine and enjoy the sun going down. My silence is golden please don’t disturb me, I am recharging my batteries for the evening meal and the final round of chores before I can rest. A well deserved break and a hot cup of tea; I seek silence and respite in my tea for a moment. I want that moment to linger a while before reality comes again and the reminder that tomorrow it all begins again. I will attempt savouring the sunlight tomorrow with the hope that I may get a chance to bask in your presence. I bid the sunset adieu for the evening and longing for sunlight as the sun comes up in the morning.

Pre Raphaelite Art Appreciation

 Any fans of Pre-Raphaelite art out there? I really love this old art of the Victorian and early Edwardian era, The colours and subject matter are so romantic and speak to my soul. I have pictures hanging up in my home office and Tarot bags on the theme too. Modern art doesn't speak to me the same way as this art. I visualise an artist studio with plenty sunlight streaming through the windows and a leafy green garden with lush green trees near the window for inspiration. Leadlight glass panes on the windows and a leadlight lamp in the room somewhere. To me these things go together with the era, and I love leadlight windows and lighting.  

I would prefer botanical art in modern paintings or something nature based. But this Pre-Raphaelite art has such a strong pull for me. I do feel a strong pull towards the mythical and whimsical elements of the art of this genre as it moved into the early 20th century. This style of painting is evocative in its beauty, elegance and the mystical  all wrapped in one package. 

 Midsummer's Eve by Robert Hughes and John William Waterhouse's famous Lady of Shallot painting,  are sitting above my computer as I type this. So feminine and a sense of a magical time in art where romance meets esoteric mysticism in a big way. Modern art cannot possibly evoke the same wonder in me like the Pre Raphaelite art does, no disrespect intended here, it’s just my personal preference in art. 

           

                                                                     Midsummer's Eve by Robert Hughes

                                                            The Lady of Shalott by John William Waterhouse

                                               The Accolade by Edmund Blair Leighton 

Ophelia by J W Waterhouse

The vibrant colours of the John Everett Millais version of Ophelia  

The Ophelia paintings come in various versions by different artists.

All of the Pre-Raphaelite paintings are  beautiful, deeply evocative and esoteric, though loved by many for their sheer beauty alone. To me it is a visual mystical poetry of times gone by, by both the artists and the era. The times they depict and  how they make me feel from a modern times standpoint is hard to put in words. These artists were most definitely very privileged individuals not just in talent but from backgrounds that could afford to provide the artists with the means to create these wonders. 

 

The esoteric wisdom that each artist possesses is not unlike those on a metaphysical path that are immersed in the symbolism of the Tarot. But the sheer beauty that an artist creates on canvas is unsurpassed for beauty, wisdom and human experience that most of humanity never gets a chance to experience on a deep personal level. However, they can get a brief glimpse into this amazing transcendental world  by studying the beautiful artworks in a gallery, a book, poster or just on good old Google. 

The more one looks at the images the deeper they speak to the subconscious mind in subtle ways which I feel are beneficial to humans on a spiritual level, not just beautiful art for the sake of it. 

I hope these pictures may spark an interest in someone that is seeing them for the first time. 

There are hundreds of images on Google images if you just type in " Pre Raphaelite art". From there click on the images and read about the individual artists. I do hope that there is someone with a curiosity for this beautiful art that becomes passionate about this genre and benefits from this simple little post. 

Warm and fuzzy hugs,

Alex

 

I Love Parasols

I have always had a love affair with parasols and came across a website years ago called A Bit Shady. com.au https://www.abitshady.com.au/empress.php and I started collecting these beautiful parasols. 

I do use them and have just ordered the lace parasol in Ivory to match the fan. These are made in Queensland and of high quality. I can't wait to receive my new baby in the mail this week. It is identical to the little black lace one with the shorter  stem.  

Parasols are making a big comeback in recent times; as I often see ladies of various ages using them. They are good if you want to avoid hat hair in a hot day.  Now there are umbrellas with a silver UV coating on the inside to repel the hot sun too, which is a great idea as they have a double function. I have a little collapsable one that I bought and keep in the car just incase it rains or its really hot. That is just an emergency stand by though. 

The chinese parasol in the photos is waterproof. It is treated with a wax coating so it will always look great. I will probably buy another one of these too. Perhaps the pink or the red , they are both beautiful and it's hard to make up one's mind . I did buy the pink one for a friend a few years ago for her birthday and she loved it.  

I got plenty use out of my umbrellas this year with the constant rain too and I love fancy umbrellas too. My red one  which is similar to the Empress parasol and my Monet one’s especially, very girly-girl stuff, lol. That's a Libra for you 😁

This black and purple was a special one off that the company did. I have no idea how many they made. I hope they revive it because it is very nice. 

See the wooden spokes inside the parasol, amazing craftsmanship 

I hope you like these parasols, and maybe you may decide to use one too this summer. 

My new parasol arrived today, yippee. I can’t wait to try it out. 

Happy Australia Day

 I  care not if you are White Australian, Indigenous Australian or New Australian; whatever we are,  we all are Australian. We love our homeland and its culture, we are free to decide, we are proud and we are privileged to live in this wonderful country abound. We love our native animals and we love our way of life, we will honour our heritage and defend our heritage with pride. With love and peace in our hearts a fair go for all that call Australia home. We will always defend Australia and our way of life no matter our origins or religious beliefs we all are Australian.

Be honest, be proud, be respectful and true, we are, you are Australian. Defend what is ours, take not which is not yours, stand and be proud to be an Australian true blue. Uphold the rightful and speak your truth no matter how unpopular or controversial it may seem. Be humble and honest and stand true blue to our country, be proud of your values; and uphold them with pride as an Aussie that the world knows is true. Our word is our bond and our honour true blue, Advance Australia, we are always true blue. 

Happy Australia Day ❤️

Peter Alan always brings a tear to my eyes when I hear his voice ❤️ Bless you Peter ❤️🤗🤗

Blue crystals and blue clothes

 Lately I have had the urge to wear a lot of blue including blue crystals, Angelite, Sodalite and Lapis Lazuli in particular. I have worn shades purples and pinks with either white or black for years. But over the past few months I am really drawn to blue. This is a very strong pull I might add, you know like when you just can’t stop being attracted to a certain colour. 

Isn’t it funny how we get strong pulls to wear particular colours suddenly. I recall my mother being told by a psychic, that I would wear a lot of blue 40 odd years ago. I was in my early 20’s then, wow such a long time ago. I did have a light sky blue mohair jumper that I wore to death back then but always loved purple shades and pink. So here I am filling my wardrobe with blue, but it has to be particular shades of blue,  I can’t stand turquoise, it has to be proper cold colours. The occasional pastels will do in summer though. 

These colours in the crystals below are more of the blues that I resonate with. Blue on a spiritual level is related to spirituality, calmness, peace, serenity, communication, integrity, intuition, healing, truth, confidence, power and wisdom. Blue is also related to the elements water and air, the star sign Libra (that’s me 🤣) Sagittarius, Aquarius and Pisces. 

The colour blue is aligned to both healing, the heart chakra, the throat chakra, and the third eye or crown chakra.the shades of blue are different thought the darker blue of sodalite is correlated to the throat chakra and the head chakra is 

                                               Pretty Angelite bracelet 

Angelite is a peaceful energy attuned to spiritual energy and relates to the throat, third eye and crown chakra. It assists in communication, calmness and dispelling fear, anger and anxiety. Don’t get this wet. 

I checked in my Crystal Bible volume 1 by Judy Hall, and this stone assists with learning Astrology and mathematics. Isn't that interesting?  This stone is not in the original, Crystal hand book by Ken Sullivan  which is an excellent book to have in your collection. I always use that book for a quick reference.

Angelite is connected to Aquarius.

Sodalite, used for logic, rational thinking and aligned to the throat chakra, enlightenment and broaden knowledge.  Beneficial in helping people be more objective and less critical. It is said to be useful in combatting the effects of both natural and artificial radiation for those who work around x ray equipment or radioactive material. Very beneficial for acupuncturists.

Sodalite is connected to Sagittarius

                     (compliments to Natures Magik, I really love this crystal)

Blue Lace Agate

This beautiful shade of Blue Agate is lovely and soft, just the sort of soft blue tones that I love; which haronises with my Lapis Lazuli and Sodalite necklaces. Celestine is another on that looks similar to Angelite.

Blue Lace Agate is a healing stone with soft energy, its calming and cooling and works with the throat chakra. Assisting in self expression, dispeling anger. Dispelling old patterns of repression. A lovely crystal to use spiritually to bring about peace within you. 

Astrologically this stone has an afinity with Gemini and Pisces, as the blue colour relates to both air and water.

I just love the soft femanine feel of this crystal and to wear it with something to show off its beauty is a must. 

                                           https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lapis_lazuli

Lapis Lazuli used for the third eye, mind, body and spirit connection and purity. It is a cleansing stone for the respiratory system, throat, lungs and the nervous system. It also assists with blood purification and boosts the immune system. Its main function is for the mind and mental function. Lapis Lazuli is also a powerful thought amplifier. Know to increase psychic abilities and opening the third eye. 

Care is important in where to wear this stone, such as near the throat as possible, it must be used with great caution and care. It should be placed above the diaphragm and brings forth the individual’s inherent abilities and enhances their abilities. 

Lapis Lazuli is connected to Taurus, Aquarius and Sagittarius star signs. 

                                                                   Kyanite in light blue

Kyanite comes in a few colours this is the light blue version which has a lovley shimmer to it.

This crystal holds similar properties to the other blue crystals memtioned here, this one is my own which sits in my office or is worn in a little pouch. While this crystal has calming abilities, it is a healing crystal said to lower blood pressure, relieve pain, assisting with trauma, aids dream recall. it is a communication stone or crystal like all these blue crystals it assists communication and therefore good in the office or in communicating with others clearly. Again it is aligned to the throat chakra.

Kyanite is associated with Aries, Taurus and Libra.

https://tinyrituals.co/blogs/tiny-rituals/kyanite-meaning-healing-properties-everyday-uses

Colours are a wonderful way of showing your personality and bring happiness to the person wearing the chosen colour and also may attract other people who are like minded or on the same frequency that you are resonating with. Colour is there to enjoy and enhance our lives as we interact with others. 

Happy New Year 2024; A Number 8 Year

 

Well here we are at the start of the year and it is a number 8 year or vibration. This is a year where all sorts of things will happen. Some of it will be good, some of it just ordinary, and some of it will be very distressing. It is important that we as Human beings really start to think about what it means to be Human and what is acceptable in our lives as we strive to be more spiritual and peaceful beings. Our Human rights and how we go about or daily lives in particular as well as our spiritual rights are not negotioable under any circumstances what so ever, and neither is our right to exist and exist and live in peace and freedom in our homelands. Our rights to earn a reasonable living that is actually sustainable to carry each of us in good health physically, mentally and emotionally throughout the entirity of our lives are also not negotiable under any circumstances. We must not ever lose our hard won rights, they must never be reduced in any way whatsoever.  

Now as I said this is a number 8 year, these are the meaings of the number 8 which also includes the astological meaning covering the 8th House of the Zodiac which is ruled by Scorpio and the planet Pluto. These factors will have an effect on everyone globally one way or another. And this is not taking into account other planets, asteroids etc that are present throughout the year ahead.

Pluto is what we must also be very wary of this year too because this planet is about destroying and rebuilding and fusion. This planet goes in cycles of 248 years and it rules crime, the underworld, even hidden worlds within ourselves (subconscious and submergedself),

It covers bacteris, viruses, it exposes that which was developed secretley or undercover. Kidnapping, isolation, coercion, dictatorships, unpopular causes, the exclusive, plumbing, waste, the masses,atomic/nuclear power, replication, think cloning and mass production alsofor replicating and of course printing/ publishing. And it also includes conception, whether its having a baby, an idea or a new business etc.

Starting with the basic meaings of the 8th House, sex,taxes, death, partner's resources,inheritance and regeneration.

In the Tarot the number 8 meanings are the following, but all of these apply to the number 8 regardless of numerology, Astrology or the Tarot.

Resurection,regeneration, extension, distribution,complexity, adjustment,acknowledgement, error,direction control,restraint,efficiency,results of victory and changes, movement, reality,progress,prudence, redistribution. Poor judgement,spiritual progress,generosity, expansiveness.

Emotionally number 8 tends to be determined, entheusiastic, inspired.

So you see each number has positive and negatives because we live in a dualistice reality. This year is no exception yet we are now on a war footing as most people realise, how that plays out really depends on world leaders egos and what is acceptable behaviour of each of them.I can tell you that from 2025 to 2027 is the critical timeline for war starting, I would say that would be in the South China Seas and then build up to global.I have stated this in myy psychic predictions in recent years which can be viewed on my main blog and on this website's links to my predictions.  

 Both the Tarot and Astrology can give us the possibilities of any outcome in any situation, but nothing is truley written in stone because Human beings are unpredictable at the best of times and time is fluid. We live in cycles in this world there are multiple events within cycles and cycles withing cycles. Numbers and mathematics are also very powerful influences on the Human race too. Numbers and Mathematics make up the universe and all realities/dimensions.  So in a nut shell a number has so much happening that we dont normally think about. 

I hope you find this interesting and it may actually inspire some people to study numerology, Astrology and or the tarot. It is an exciting area to study even from  a psychology standpoint as some psychologists do indeed study these subjects to better understand the human mind and the human condition in many aspects.

Please live from your heart and live in peace because the results of not living in peace have massive ramifications on everyone around us.As the laws of cause and effect are incredibley powerful and often have unintended consequences that we don't seem to think about

Warm and Fuzzy hugs to everyone where ever you are

Alex turns the big 6 0

 I officially turned 60 today what a hoot. Lol, it’s more like the big 6 oh or D’oh! I am now one of the Golden Girls.🤣🤣🤣 I am somewhere between Rose and the granny, Estelle Getty’s character in the Golden Girls on the Richter scale. I had a great day today but I take the age thing as no biggie. It’s just a number to tick off on our to do list as we stumble through life after all. So on with a new chapter of life, with  plenty of spark in me to keep everyone amused for another couple of decades easily. 

I don’t celebrate my birthday in the normal manner I prefer to celebrate nature and the spring season, and I feel lucky to be born in September to enjoy the seasonal change. What is one day compared to a season to celebrate after all? The flowers are beautiful and the birds are singing and there are fresh green leaves on the trees as they awaken from their hibernation. A fresh new world awaits us as every season and invigorates the soul. ❤️

My simple philosophy is just live and enjoy the splendour of nature in its glory, by getting outdoors and breathing in the air. Grounding yourself by standing or sitting in the garden with your bare feet on the ground and feel the earth energy coming up through you. This is what I did first thing this morning and the weather has been perfect. Thank you nature for making this day special. 

I am wondering what lies in store for the next ten years and praying that the years will be kind. After all the truly hard yards have been done. I will do my best to make life as peaceful as possible as I evolve into a wiser person growing older gracefully. Ok, well maybe not that gracefully 🤣🤣 because that just wouldn’t be me. I am more of a politically incorrect individual but with a good heart and a wicked sense of humour. So I think that I am more likely to lean towards being like the granny on the Golden Girls. So let’s see what happens eh? 

Visions as I was grounding and attuning myself

 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_mundi

A rather weid thing happened to me today as I was grounding and tuning in. While doing my grounding and going through each chakra, I started to see significant places around the world. Starting with the Dome of the Rock with a bright blue sky above. This became noticeable as I got to my throat chakra and it really startled me because I don't usually see things like this when tuning in. It is normally shapes, sacred geometry and occasionally colours when I tune in.

I then saw another place  of significance in the northern hemispheir, yet I am struggling to remember what it was, a building of some sort but that is all. After this being shown to me, I saw the Australian Parliament House building and many people rushing towards it. The people were in a state of pannic  and in need of protection from an unseen danger. The sky was bright blue above  Parliament House too. I then saw what looked like a volacano or Mt Fuji in Japan capped with snow.  There was also another volcano seen at another chakra and everything just happened so fast that they all blended into one. I saw shown the NATO symbol which depicts the four cardinal points of direction, I then saw a little boy standing on an observation deck in a big complex, he was looking through a big gallery length window. He turned to look at me and then went back to looking through the window. He was watching an experiment and I had a strong feeling that it was neuclear energy. The boy was very focussed on what he was watching with a serious look on his face. To put an age to the boy I would say perhaps 9 or 10. With a grey woollen jumper and medium brown short hair style of his era and he was wearing shorts. Boys in the old days wore shorts until they were 14 and then into long trousers. I got the feeling that this boy was not a boy in our time, he was in the past, decades ago. To me the time line could have been the 1940's or 50's. I would probably say more the 1950's though. 

As I got to the end of my attuning and grounding I had a feeling of everything shaking and suddenly I saw people runing again to the Australian Parliament building. I then saw what appeared to be a volcanic tremor at the same time though the volcanic activity was triggered by what could have been nuclear energy. This to me implies a massive energy shift happening globally, it did not feel good at all. After that  I was shown a big body of water as in the pacific ocean and a submarine preparing to attack Australia (Western Australia). I felt this was deliberatley targeting Australia and we need to be prepaired for an event in the near future. This does not necessarily mean that we will be physically attacked in Australia but there is a definite shift mentally and emotionally happening on a global level. 

I do feel though that Australia needs to up its coastal defences immediatley as there will be a naval battle whether we like it or not. Air and sea warfare is going to impact Australia in the future. I would say that all four corners of the globe will be affected by war; and the effects will be felt before and after which goes without saying with any war.    

I get a feeling of energy or lay lines connected here and how everything affects humanity emotionally, mentally and physically. It is our chakras that ground us to the earth and this reality. Our emotions are directly linked to the ley lines. All religious buildings are built on ley lines including ancient pagan places of worship going back to the very beginning of human spirituality. 

I will say again,  all war is a failure of humanity!

UPDATE: 30/6/24 Looking for something in my blog I came across this. The thing that jumped out at me was the Dome of the Rock. We know now what happened last year on 7th October and that sure was a seismic shift becoming a nightmare. 

The actions of Uranus, the asshole planet, it is a breaker of traditions, governs utopian mindsets, it rules earthquakes, its actions can be sudden and unexpected and often violent. Then Pluto the herpes of planets. It is highly destructive and goes through each zodiac sign for 12 to 13 years in a 248 year cycle and as one of the three transcendental planets it is an upper octave of Mars. Pluto rules the masses,  it is an underworld planet of subversion, nuclear power, kidnapping to name a few things. Pluto along with Uranus will be causing chaos up to 2043 as it will reside in Aquarius. You will see me commenting on this in my 2024 world predictions done last October. 

Mars the planet for war was in Libra from the 3rd of October, and this is the Israeli prime minister’s birth sign. 

We have also seen empty threats by Putin of nuclear exchanges and the nuclear power plant in Ukraine in the news. That doesn’t mean that a nuclear war will happen, it is only just put into the media. Any time someone or something is discussed it actually activates the astrological aspects of the subject matter or person. Such as a famous person in history, the natal chart doesn’t die with the person’s death. It lives permanently as the person name comes up in public conversation such as in education or even a news article about the person. 

Baby birds expeced on my veranda again

 Yesterday afternoon I was delighted to see a mother bird, a Silvereye to be precise, making a nest in one of the plants on my back veranda. This is the second time my veranda has been sought after by a mother bird. I absolutley adore little Silvereyes. They are so tiny and chirpy little dears. Yesterday afternoon this little bird was fluttering around preparing her nest with feathers and what looked like dried twigs or dried grass. I have had a sneeky peak in the plant to see what she has brought in to her temporary nest. But I know to keep right away while she is prearing for her babies arrival. 

The problem is trying to water the plants without frightening her away. Especially once the eggs hatch as she might abandon the nest. I also need to keep an eye on miss Ruby just in case she discovers the bird as her barking  may frighten the mother bird away. 

I really enjoyed the last birds on the veranda, however it was quite hot and I was worried about the chicks not surviving the heat due to the lazerlite holding in heat and it was a very hot summer. However they all survived and flew off shortly before Christmas 2018.

The last photo was on 23 December 2018. For some reason I kept thinking it was Blackbirds, D'oh! they were Thrushes.

I will try to get some photos from afar and zoom in as the mother bird sits on her eggs and then see if I can get a phot of the chicks, being careful not to upset the mummy bird.

 Below is the blurb and photo from Wikipedia.

UPDATE: The little bird has relocated she must have felt the nest is not in a safe place because of people constantly passing by and checking the plant. Good luck little mother to be ❤️

 

Spiritual message given in 22 July 2023

 

Spiritual message given in 22 July 2023

As I started to do the tarot card of the month for August this started to come through.

[Sic] Now getting down to the serious part, we, humanity are in spiritual crisis and needing help with world events. This is a critical time in human history and existence. One step the wrong way and we plunge into the abyss. This is not to the way to go, humanity needs a “correction” in order to function and exist before catastrophe strikes.

Yet few are willing to make the correction. Life is about to change yet again very soon;  if we head in this direction. There are factions of government around the world that are aware of this and are trying hard to avert war and the impending damage to humanity and the planet.

This has nothing to do with the “Green” agenda whatsoever, it is about evolution of the species and averting war at all costs. Money is crumbling as we speak and even though some financial crisis will be averted it is not enough for what we need. Time is drawing clear where the spirit world is watching (drawing closer) afraid of the harshness that will be unleashed soon, yet world leaders cannot agree on anything especially if there is a price tag.

But how do you put a price tag on life, human or other lifeforms? This needs a mother’s touch and a mother’s love. The rays of feminine energy need to reach earth to make a difference, yet the rays of love are too weak to penetrate this world.

Tears in heaven cannot prevent the bloodshed that is to come yet again to this world. Not enough love survives withing humanity due to greed and preoccupation with wealth and preoccupation with the self. Admiration is like a disease that ignores the plight of the soul. This pushes the human spirit to the side where greed, obsession and perversion takes hold.

The US is a classic example of spiritual decline with warfare, fame and focus on the self. Focus should be on helping others, focus should be on forgiveness of debt (spiritual or financial?) and power. Humanity will not survive unless urgent correction of the soul, spirit and mind are made.

This year alone death has taken over as the topic of news in this world. Not the focus of the rich and powerful damaging this world through greed, domination, and strife. This balance is way out of control. I doubt is can ever be corrected. Time is too short as it is yet nobody is interested that has the power to correct anything.

We pay a huge price in blood for the deeds of the few. This is the way of this world, but it was never to be the intention. Only when consciousness fell did this occur. Now the price of salvation is neigh impossible. This is not the message we want to hear or see played out, but it is played out globally for all.

I am sorry the vessel has been chosen to give the message to the world, but it is. This was in the contract when she incarnated, we love her dearly and forgive her sins.

Wow, we never thought this message would need to be given, forgive us all for what you receive. This is not our doing but the lords of time have had enough!

Don’t print this Alex, this is doom. Report carefully we will assist you, Alison (my daughter in spirit).

The card of the month is sweet and lovely, but do not show the world the gloom.Show them this instead. France will kick it up a notch with rioting uncontrolled, Macron has no idea how to deal with this. His time is almost over to serve, elections will be called sooner. He will step down.

The world is in turmoil yes, but it will recover. War is inevitable yet not final, we know survival will come, but you must go through with war and build a new world. This is the rules of this planet, war will come and war will go. What is left begins anew in cycles from the smallest ant to the biggest bridge. But that bridge must have support, you see this all through history. We do survive in spirit and soul and body, but not in hate and anger!

You must strive to protect what life you have because soon there won’t be a choice. So, act now and preserve all that flesh has to offer the soul. Money or gold does not help the soul nor does food, but you need food to survive in a world of greed.

We leave you now to your own devices, this message has been delivered.

 

NOTE: What am I to make of this? 

UPDATE: 21 October 2023. I found the original paper of this today, and I can't help wondering if this was a trickster spirit or entity. When I get messages while doing predictions, tarot card of the month etc. I sometimes just automatically zone out so to speak and the message comes through, I don't think the words that I write, it just happens. Now I usually assume that it comes via my higher self but there are times like this that I truly wonder what is really controlling psychic people.  I am aware that relatives work with me because I can see them but then things come through and it leaves me wondering who or what else is communicating with me.

I also find this disturbingly hypocritical because humanity doe not really have free will we are programmed prior to incarnating. Reincarnation is not to humanities benefit and never was. To understand this read article by John Lamb Lash, Cameron Day, Anton Parks and Wes Penre. That is just some of the researchers that are writting on what is really controlling human consciousness and this reality. These people provide a bibliography of their research that is verifiable.

How bizarre is this?

 I am just lying in bed scrolling through my blog stats and Alice Cooper’s face suddenly appears in my head. I don’t even listen to his music. But I jumped on to google news and this article was just posted, (the top article). 

No idea why he popped into my head, music is definitely not my primary focus. I don’t listen to modern music very often either, and it is certainly not my first choice and definitely not metal or hard rock. 

Look up on the black header and see the time (24 minutes ago), I read the article and then thought I might as well post it here, lol. 

A breakthrough in my Astrology studies

 Yesterday I made a bit of a breakthrough in studying astrology. I now realise that I should have taken the plunge many years ago. Because I was under the false assumption that it would be too difficult for me to learn and I had never bought or even looked at a basic book on learning about astrology. 

Having dyscalculia and other learning difficulties I automatically assumed that there would be no possible way that I would be able to do this. I was wrong I have made progress, I understand what I am learning and I am very passionate about the subject. I’m so glad that I took the plunge into this subject. I just wish that I had done so twenty or even forty years ago. But everything comes down to timing. And when the student is ready the teacher appears.

I actually put off learning the Tarot cards out of fear for twenty years and a lack of faith in myself. But when I have a gift that is to be shared with humanity out of unconditional love then events are put into place by spirit to give one the courage and faith to be able to have confidence and courage to be able to carry out the mission and purpose for being given these gifts or abilities.

For a few months I have been anxious and fearful because of my fears of not being good enough to do this  calling. Having grown up as a child that was treated as a joke or a failure; life has never been easy for me.

My sibling sailed through life and was the favourite where I was seen as a joke. Well I have kept my faith in spirit and have always tried to be a good person and now I look back at from the moment that I picked up first deck of Tarot cards to where I am today and think well I managed to do this all on my own.

That was because I felt so strongly about the Tarot cards and understood that this is a spiritual journey and calling to help others. It’s not about me and never has been, it’s about humanity and spirit within humanity. Astrology is also part of the calling. I just didn’t know that until I started getting a strong pull towards it. The team behind me in spirit helping me every step of the way. I have no idea what will happen with all of this and turning 60 in a few weeks I think to myself why at this age? Other people are retiring and here I am moving into this.

I understand that I am merely a tool for spirit to help others and I am extremely grateful for the opportunity. But again why me and why when I am getting old and having health problems. 

I guess the thing to do is just get on with it and don’t overthink everything as I normally do. If one person benefits from this then it is worth it. I do get great happiness out of helping others and seeing them happy. I know what it feels like to be unhappy and depressed, but to bring happiness and hope to someone is in itself a gift. I feel joy to see happiness in others. 

So I pray that my studies will provide that opportunity to give to humanity and also prove to myself that I must have faith and confidence in myself, not to be put of by naysayers and just do what I am here for. I am getting much happiness in learning and will enjoy explaining and demystifying astrology to people in the future. One thing I keep in mind is, if I can do this then anyone can. If you have learning difficulties like I do then you will understand where I am coming from. 

You have to develop faith in yourself because nobody will give you the faith and trust you need, you must do it for yourself. Do not give in because others think it's a waste of time or you won't be any good at it. Please be courageous enough to live on your own terms and carry out your life’s mission. 

I now understand the dream that I had when the old men saluted me. I was baffled by the dream and it had me worried for the future.

So if you feel a pull towards a particular form of employment or anything else then listen to your heart and give it a try.

Warm and fuzzy hugs

Do we have to be reactionary?

 Rather than being reactionary in the negative about another person’s opinions, comments or actions. Step back from the situation and look at what your response is. Is your response justified or perhaps you may have misinterpreted the comment or actions. Are you taking on the energy of a person that is perceived as negative?  Can you pull back on your emotions and not engage negatively in the situation, to not be caught up in the cycle? 

Think about what benefits you by not responding with anger. How hard is it in a split second to just refocus your response; to de-escalate your emotions and response to something that you normally would be  quick to anger? Set the intention of retraining yourself to think about how to respond to something that might provoke a negative emotional reaction.

This takes great effort and deliberate control over your instinctual response not to inflame yourself. Perhaps you are being lead to react to a situation in a hostile way, not for your benefit but for others to provoke a hostile response. Either way; being non reactive it is something that an individual must learn to do in order to have a more healthy mindset. Think first about what you hear or see, and then formulate a response that does not reflect poorly upon yourself. Over thinking the issue is also something that must be addressed, because to dwell on the issue may cause you to go into an unhealthy mindset and this doesn’t benefit you one bit. 

From a mental health perspective as well as one’s general health, anger is an unhealthy energy to create within yourself. No matter what the source of anger or upset is, it never benefits you. It may benefit others to see you upset and therefore not just is your negative emotions causing you distress but the others may enjoy seeing you hurt. Your distressed energy feeds egos but starves you of emotional nourishment and spiritual growth. 

One must be forever mindful of the power and effect of strong emotions and the harmful unintended effects within us. Reactionary mindsets are distracted mindsets, unable to quickly assess the moment and maintain a dignified equilibrium. Practicing serenity and calm confidence does not always come naturally for many people, however it can be achieved through meditation and focus on calm logic. A wise person is rarely in distress, they exude calm confidence and rationale when faced with negative challenges. 

The key to being less reactive and more relaxed is through practicing mindfulness, wisdom and self discipline. Be your own little Buddha by going within regularly to observe your thoughts and feelings honestly, seek the higher wisdom from within. From a place of grace and stillness to live in accordance with your inner peace and harmony. This is the challenge, we must strive for by mindful attention to our inner world. Learn to bring forth that confidence and wisdom into daily life to guide you through moments where you may normally feel anger towards others and hold the calmness, giving yourself time to be composed without the usual instinctive reactionary instinct.

Warm and fuzzy hugs 🤗 

This world needs peace above all else

 This world desperately needs peace, love and compassion above all else right now. Society is ripped apart, belief systems are broken and disrespected. Peace, harmony and tolerance is but a burned up old rag at the end of a flagpole. Our collective survival as a species is in doubt and our spiritual survival is in even greater danger. 

How does a supposedly enlightened species get it so wrong again and again we wonder. Right now in modern history we are right back to hitting the reset button on the human race. Not one person can really say they are truly spiritually advanced or even as a member of the human species; have any of us made it to the pinnacle of what a human being is supposed to be. How many times do we have to go through the process of birth and death before we as a species can even begin to be what the original human beings were supposed to be? 

Things will not change unless there is an evolutionary change within the entire species at a spiritual level. Animals don’t wipe out an entire species or several species like we do. It is sad that we find ourselves back at the same point yet again, it feels like we are preparing for our own funerals yet again. 

I yearn for a great spiritual awakening for humanity and for all life but I do not believe that humanity are ever going to be able to transcend to that spiritual pinnacle unfortunately because they hold on to three dimensional thinking which is destructive and limiting all potential that the soul can achieve.

The frequency in the third dimension is way too low and a negative for humanity to be able to make that leap to higher levels of spiritual consciousness. Hence the repetitive cycle and destruction in a never ending suffering. Humanity needs to leave this reality once and for all to even begin to heal itself and evolve. 

Astrology in a teacup

 

I love this tea cup from T2 my dear husband bought me this cup months ago just as I was starting my Astrology studies. As soon as I saw it, it just said; perfect for Astrology. I see the stars and the universe in this pattern. The pattern is called Moroccan and I find it enchanting in blue. Lately I have been attracted to the colour blue in clothes and seeing this cup it just seemed perfect. My husband just seems to intuitivley know what to buy me at random moments too. We are both dual star signs too so that synchronicity is strong. 

Being a big lover of tea I love cups and teapots. They are just so personal and intimate. Just perfect to relax the mind body and spirit in higher esoteric journies. The Kaleidoscope pattern with stars is a powerful and transcendant pattern that I can slip into energetically. So it is aim for the stars for me on an esoteric level.

If you are interested, T2 has the pattern in a few colours.
