Sacred Geometry All Around
This past week I attended a spiritual workshop on crystals. As part of the workshop we were reminded of the significance of the fractal geometry that appears everywhere. When I was in high school, I grew crystals from chemicals. I remember my amazement at the precise geometric shapes that materialized in the liquid; from ground-up chemical powder, the proper geometric form materialized as the water evaporated from the solution. The crystals grew into being much the same as new life forms within the womb.
Walking through a garden I looked at the blossoms on the lilac bush and discovered that each tiny blossom is an equal armed cross. I am told that if we look through a microscope at our bodily cells, we will see the component that holds our cells in place -- and over and over again, between each cell, that component forms the equal armed cross.
Take time to notice the intricate design in the world around you. Celebrate our Creator! Know that each and every one of us was created as a beautiful Light Being. Remember who you are!

While the above cloud is not the one I saw, it is very similar. Mine had greater detail and magnitude. Pictured is the type of cloud I saw.

Prayer for Water
In the book, SoThat You May Be One: from the Visions of Joa Bolendas, there is a channeling shared that was given by the Blessed Mother, Mary. This one called "The Third Message of Wisdom: Water for Life" is of great importance to us now, in the midst of the oil flowing into the waters of the Gulf.
In my prayers this morning, I was told that I must share this with you and ask you to enter into this prayer daily for the cleansing and healing of the ocean waters, the flora, the fauna, and creatures of the sea and shore. The following is the prayer given by Mary:
"Kneel down,
and make the sign of the cross over the earth,
Rise up,
make the sign of the cross towards the sky adn say:
'In the name of Jesus Christ,
I ask you, God, to move fire toward the sky and let rain fall!'
Do not forget this in case of nuclear war. Then the air is dry.
It will save millions of human beings and living creatures.
After this prayer,
wash yourself from head to foot. Oil your forehead.
Go forth upon the earth again. It is healthy to do this."
I was instructed to share this prayer with you, and to tell you that you are to include in this prayer, "I ask you God, in the name of Christ, to move fire toward the sky, to cleanse the sea, heal its broken floor, heal the flora, fauna, and creatures of the sea and shore, and let the cleansing and healing rain fall."
I was told that if we pray this daily, that it will save much for our planet.
Namaste!

Deep Peace
It amazes me that it has taken me 50+ years to finally stop and just be beside the waters. And, oh, what a wonderful deep peace that brings -- a gift from God. If you have not yet permitted yourself to receive that glorious gift, do it today. Take an afternoon, better yet, take a day! Find a quiet peaceful place to sit near the waters and allow its vibration to be one with yours.

Joy
Everyday we communicate with words. Yet, how little we think about those words and what they really mean. For instance -- what is the difference between happiness and joy; between saddness and sorrow? I have not turned to the dictionary to see what it has to say -- this I speak from my journey.
Happiness and saddness have a more fleeting nature. How often do we think, "I would be so happy if ....."; but, do we think, "I would be so joyful if . . . "? I don't think we do say that, because so often happiness is conditional, and its opposite sadness is conditional. Certainly, we have known people who could be sooo happy one minute, and sooo sad the next. The conditions change and we move quickly from happiness to sadness -- as I think about it, it is much like the weather!
Joy and sorrow are different. Joy and sorrow penetrate deep into the heart -- they are connected to God. I can be filled with joy and sorrow at the same time -- they are both attached to Divine Love. When we reach a state of being that is "Joy", it is very difficult to ever truly leave that state of being. Why? Because to leave it, we must disconnect from the Divine. When we feel "sorrow", we are acknowledging that Divine Love within us that we hold for God's Creation, and we are experiencing a small taste of Divine Sorrow. Sorrow is Love overflowing in tears of the heart.
Check your emotional barometer today and see if it registers happiness, sadness, joy, or sorrow. Consider what that means. Reach out to the Divine. And then, watch for God's Joyful Surprise in your life!
