(My Water Distiller Arrived Today)Tomorrow Mercury Enters Taurus. And a more calming grounded energy is felt. Also because of the fact that he is slowing down. So the restfulness is greatly felt. However, if you are one of those people who have it in the 1st house of physical self or the 8th house of turmoil, then it’s a different story.
(Not that I dislike my Berkey Water Filter, but I saw Youtube videos talking about how one should only be drinking high mountain water or distilled.)
However, if you have it on the 7th, you may be speaking about business and contracts throughout this time but feeling quite discouraged or confused about certain boundaries.
Remember Mercury is in shady business mode. Venus is still Retrograding in Aries and still clear minded about de-masking certain people, and sticking to her core…

Methane gases from livestock production is contributing to the acceleration of global warming. Is a plant-based diet a smart way for individuals to curb the effects of climate change?

Māvamaññetha pāpassa, “Na mantaṃ āgamissati.”
Udabindunipātena, udakumbhopi pūrati.
Bālo pūrati pāpassa, thokaṃ thokampi ācinaṃ.
Think not lightly of evil, saying, “It will not come to me.”
Drop by drop is the water pot filled.
Likewise, the fool, gathering it little by little,
fills oneself with evil.
Dhammapada 9.121
The Dhammapada: The Buddha’s Path of Wisdom, translated from the Pali by Acharya Buddharakkhita
Today is a day for learning. Ask yourself, “What one thing could I learn that would improve my life now?” Once you’ve decided your subject, hit the books. Go to the recognized experts and pay close attention to their words. Once you’ve absorbed the traditional teachings on this subject, you can begin to innovate, but for now be a willing and cooperative student. The Hierophant Reversed represents problems with traditions and societal norms. You may be questioning or rebelling against some tradition or societal norm. The way things are usually done may not be working for you. You may notice that traditional practices are harmful or impractical and may even participate in revolutionary action or protest. You may be rebelling for the sake of rebelling. A rebel without a cause. Ask if your actions stem from your deepest desires, or if you are just doing the opposite of what’s expected of you. This card also appears reversed to advise you to examine your usual way of thinking or acting. Perhaps your usual way of doing something is not in line with the life you’d like to live. Maybe the beliefs you formed in early life no longer serve your purpose. What was once useful to you may now be limiting. This card also appears when you are bothered by your conscience. You may be confused about the right thing to do or say. You may be riddled with guilt or regret. You may be feeling weary from constantly living up to the expectations that seem imposed upon you. The Hierophant Reversed can also represent a teacher with questionable methods. This teacher may use intimidation or shame as a teaching tactic. The lessons being passed may be unethical or outdated. This teacher may take advantage of their position of authority. Lastly, this card may also represent divorce or leaving a religion.
Aloha kākou a aloha kākahiāka. I Pōʻalima āwaiwa nou ōukōu a me hopenapule maika’i. O ka maluhia no me ‘oe.
Hello and good morning to you. Let’s all have a fantastic Friday and a nice weekend. Peace be with you.
The first step toward healing is one of Honest Self-Analysis, self-inventory, self-inquiry.
(Ernest Holmes, Science of the Mind, at 248.)
Forgiveness is not always easy. To forgive the one that wounded your heart, at times, feels more painful than any physical wound suffered. Unfortunately, most of us (stubbornly?) refuse to clear the emotional blocks created. And yet, there is no peace without forgiveness. So, most of us are stuck and can’t seem to achieve that positive spin of acceptance through which the Law of Attraction operates most favorably Therefore, the answer for many of us must be to embrace forgiveness in order to receive abundance.
The Ancient Hawaiians personified the caring of your spiritual health as a polished hand-carved Koa bowl given to a child before the age of five. Each person carries their Spiritual Greatness reflected within that bowl. This light, which is reinforced by the light-life energies of the Ancestors, light the path ahead of you.
However, your Bowl of Life isn’t always light and clear. At times, the light reflected from your bowl can become obstructed by stones that land inside it as you go about your life’s journey. Each time a bad word is uttered, whether from your mouth or from another’s, each time a bad act is committed, whether by you or against you by another, leaves a rock inside your bowl. In time, the bowl becomes dull and heavy to carry. Also imagine that most stones, or negative memories, are received by the soul in the womb of the mother. Every hurtful, stressful, abusive emotional injury that happens to the mother during pregnancy places a scar (a samsara moment, or character tendencies), or spiritual test, or karmic lesson to be learned in this lifetime, on the soul of the child. And, that child’s walk up the mountain of life is burdened with those stones in its sacred bowl of light until he or she learns how to huli – turn over — the bowl to empty them out.
All people climb the same Mountain. The Mountain, however, has many pathways, each with a different view. A person knows and understands only what he sees from his own pathway, from where he is standing on the mountain. As he moves up the mountain of life, his view changes. Only when he reaches the top of the mountain will he begin to see and understand the diverse views of mankind. But, who among us has reached the top of the mountain? How is it possible when the Bowl we carry has become so very heavy?
These are some of the stones in the sacred bowl of light that must be let go of by ancient ceremonial ways. Ancient Hawaiians trained their young in witness consciousness as a way of learning to see clearly with awareness and awakened consciousness … without judgments, opinions, expectations, “should’s” and limited understanding … of what you think that you are looking at. This allows one to walk awake and always connected to the voice of the ancestors, to shine light on what one witnesses from deep within the na’au (heart). The Ancient Hawaiians understood that the MIND is your First Weapon to defeating victim consciousness. It must be polished and disciplined to persist. Thus, your mind is either your best friend or your worst enemy. The Power that unleashes the opportunities brought by the Law of Attraction is Within YOU!!! Change Your Thinking and Change Your Life.
Forgiveness Affirmations are the most thorough way of evoking these cleansing energies.
Tomorrow, we, too, will see a different view. We have not finished growing. We address the spiritual dynamics of human relations and the goal of transformation and healing the hearts of humanity, including intergenerational trauma, right now through the act of forgiveness.
Walk into this Now with a clean sacred bowl of light, as an awakened spiritual being here for a human experience, and not a human being here for a spiritual experience. Let go of all victim consciousness and blame … that was just a bad dream of separation. There are no accidents. Everything happens for righteous cause. This is the experience called the play of consciousness!
I recommend five to fifiteen minutes of daily forgiveness meditation before you go to bed as spiritual practice. This cleans your Sacred Bowl of Light which, in turn, cleanses your creative power that magnetizes your life spark, which in turn, harmonizes you with the Law of Attraction and increases abundance in your life.
May you awaken with opportunities for Abundance knocking at your door. Aloha e malama pono kakou.

Today, look at your relationship with limits. On the one hand, you may be limiting yourself and your potential by never taking risks. You may be making assumptions about every possible path before even trying it out. You may think to yourself, “I already know what will happen if I do that, so why even try?” Though there is value in past experience, be wary of being closed off to new experiences. You may be pleasantly surprised. On the other hand,The Fool reversed may be urging you to act with more constraint. It may be that you have forgotten everything you learned in the past and are acting foolishly in a situation. You may be so in love with adventure and newness that you are bypassing opportunities to commit and grow in any one area. It is good to be curious and try new things, but there is also value in settling down and diving deeper into what you already have.

Hello everyone and good morning. Enjoy this beautiful Thursday, Friends. Peace be with you.
My Dad loved his lemon tree and it was such an important part of the garden that it was literally the last thing he did to fix his garden: plant a new lemon tree. It is almost like he was giving me his last piece of good advice to live by … and consuming more lemon has certainly benefited my health and that of my aging Mom.
If you are looking for an easy trick to improve your life and overall health, than look no further. Drinking lemon water first thing in the morning is a pretty simple routine to get into and will have tremendous effects on your overall health. Since I started this simple and surprisingly healthy habit a few […]

Metaphysical Meaning Of Fire Agate
Fire Agate is a variety of chalcedony a semi-precious gemstone found in certain areas of northern Mexico and the southwestern United States. Round about 24 to 36 million years ago these particular areas were home to massive volcanic activity (Tertiary Period). Fire agates were formed during this period of volcanism when hot water, saturated with silica and iron oxide, repeatedly filled cracks and bubbles in the surrounding rock. Deposits of fire agate have been found in the Czech Republic, Iceland, Morocco, India, United States, and Brazil.
Fire agate is a very powerful stone, not one to play with if you have not developed your psychic energy. Wearing fire agate when you’re physical and light body are not yet spiritually advanced will cause headaches and fever. The protection properties of fire agate are strong and ward off even the most dangerous of negative…

The Emperor has been described as (a) will embodied in form, but this is only one of its applications, and (b) as an expression of virtualities contained in the Absolute Being — but this is a fantasy. The Emperor’s message is this: It is time to think logically and rationally about your situation. Rules, stability and structure are central to the current situation. If you have a position of leadership, use your intellect to make the best decisions for your team. The Emperor urges you to increase the stability in your life. There may be a need for you to set limits on your own behavior in order to achieve your goals. Your father or a father-figure may be relevant to the situation at hand. Think about what fatherhood and masculinity mean to you.
Researchers suggest children’s social skills are declining as they have less time for face-to-face interaction due to their increased use of digital media, according to a UCLA psychology study. Scientists found that sixth-graders who went five days without even glancing at a smartphone, television or other digital screen did substantially better at reading human emotions than sixth-graders from the same school who continued to spend hours each day looking at their electronic devices.

Like a bee that gathers nectar from flowers, in stillness and in silence I too gather nectar. It is called Awareness.
Santaṃ tassa manaṃ hoti, santā vācā,

Calm is one’s thought, calm one’s speech,
and calm one’s deed, who, truly knowing,
is wholly freed, perfectly tranquil and wise.

Here we have compiled all those delicious foods that are naturally detoxifying and help in weight loss.
For today, make a to-do list and get to it. No excuses. No distractions. You can get a lot of meaningful work done today, but only if you take responsibility for yourself. The Emperor is a card of authority, structure and security. When he appears reversed, there is probably some problem in one of these areas. The card could represent someone who is abusing their power. It may be that the person in charge of your situation, whether it is you or someone else, has let their power go to their head. They may be overly controlling or critical. They may put their own needs before the greater good. They may be deceitful or greedy. They may be lazy or unmotivated, or just not qualified for the position they hold. The Emperor can also appear reversed when a situation is not safe or predictable. Rules and structure are missing. Chaos prevails. If you are trying to get something done, but do not have a plan or structure, you may find you make no progress. Alternatively, if you are too structured and rigid, the Emperor Reversed may be prompting you to shake up your routine and be a little less predictable for the sake of creativity. This card can also indicate trouble with boundaries. You may find it difficult to say “no” or to avoid taking on other people’s “stuff”. Or, you may be pushing your own “stuff” on to others. The Emperor is the father in the Tarot, and when he appears reversed, there may be problems with a father figure or in taking on the role of father. You may have trouble in your relationship with your father, or, if you are a father, with your children. Your father may be ill.

I doubt that we can explain the difference between Blame and Responsibility too often. In a Nutshell, Blame looks backward to Assign Cause, while Responsibility looks forward to Change Outcomes. Yes, there may be some backward-looking to seek potential levers to facilitate Future Change, but it will be incidental.
Blame is a Universe unto itself, a Closed System. Like Cause and Effect, when you’re inside the Bubble, you can’t see out of it. People who can’t see beyond the opaque…

What is the benefit of eating a vegetarian diet and how it can be easily implemented in a person’s life, is what Sadhguru explores in this article: “What kind of food you eat should depend not on what you think about it, or on your values and ethics, but on what the body wants. When it comes to food, don’t ask your doctors or your nutrition experts. Food is about the body.”
