Daily Words of the Buddha for April 03, 2020
Ayasāva malaṃ samuṭṭhitaṃ
tatuṭṭhāya tameva khādati,
evaṃ atidhonacārinaṃ
sāni kammāni nayanti duggatiṃ.
Just as rust arising from iron
eats away the base from which it arises,
even so, their own deeds
lead transgressors to states of woe.

Acchecchi vaṭṭaṃ,
byagā nirāsaṃ.
Visukkhā saritā na sandati.
Chinnaṃ vaṭṭaṃ na vattati.
Esevanto dukkhassā.
One has broken the cycle,
attained freedom from desire.
The dried-up stream no longer flows.
The cycle, broken, no longer turns.
This, just this, is the end of misery.

Strive hard and become wise!
Rid of impurities and cleansed of stain,
you shall not come again to birth and decay.

Day 18 – Locking it Down with CPM
Yes, yes. Definitely the 97th of March. Only 198 days in April, followed by at least 3 weeks of May. Then we should be caught up with the new shelter in place order for much of the San Francisco Bay area – until May 3.
Why do they send this stuff out in the middle of the weekday? Can’t they catch us on a Friday at 7 after a nice cocktail or two?
Wanna give a shout out to my Soap Sista, Sabrina, for the Dove soap hook-up. She saw my cry for help on the blog and sent some on over. I reciprocated with her favorite kind of enchiladas. We’ve all got to take care of each other. From a safe distance.
I’ve been lucky enough to go to work this week! It’s quite essential to replace rotten deck boards, so when people go walk their dogs for…

Sun, Moon and Chiron in Aries in second house
New beginnings, new life, another chance to chase after your dreams. The sun, moon, and chiron are teaming up to help us put some pep in our step. We are waking up from the long winter to venture out into the world again. Sometimes we only have our will to help us get through a difficult moment. Feel that strength within and keep going!
You can do this.
Mercury and Neptune in Pisces
You may be experiencing an existential crisis. Who are you? What is your purpose here? When we are taken outside of our usual routine, it causes us to move into a space of reflection. Pay close attention to your dreams and other symbols such as repeating numbers, animals, or other psychic related phenomenon such as sounds or smells that bring up visions. Our psyche is reaching out to…

Numerology: Energy for each day of the month April 2020
- #9 – Conflict – Today brings an aggressive desire to be contrary to others. Channel that energy into destructive things that are constructive.
- #10 – The Will – One will rise or fall according to one’s will. Absolute creation or absolute destruction. Love or Hate. Respect or Fear. Honor or Dishonor. There is no middle ground. Self discipline is the key.
- #11 – Compromised, But Not Silenced – One’s goals and ideas conflict with another because of a lack of compatibility and a compromise needs to be reached instead of one person being silenced. Imagine a lion being muzzled and unable to roar.
- #12 – Crucified – Be alert and pay attention to the plans and intrigues of others. Mental anxiety creates amnesia and forgetfulness of lessons previously learned. Beware of false flattery. Analyze the motives of others.
- #13 – Metamorphosis – This is a karmic number of heaving the…

Day 15 – Locking it Down with CPM
Did you know if you’re always home doing laundry, you only need to own 3-4 outfits? Pajamas, whatever.
Home-school fifth grade is coming along, and school will remain closed until May 1. The school so far has only provided a math and reading packet, which we will complete in no time. I’ve also added spelling (apparently, they don’t have spelling in fifth grade anymore), states and capitals, social studies and geography. Spelling words are easy – I just pick the words she spells wrong and bam – spelling words.
I told my daughter that if she passed her spelling test, I would make pizza. While I detest leftover night, I do love leftovers on pizza night!
My hands have been washed so many times that they feel like beef jerky. And not even the good stuff. I’m talking the 25¢ beef jerky in a community container at every quick…

Meditation Moments …
Every single thing always works out even when you don’t understand it at the moment. You can look back at past experiences and be grateful that certain things didn’t work out because you wouldn’t be where you are. Be grateful. Whatever you’re going through now will pass.
You are a miracle. Life is a miracle. Everything around you is all miraculous. Once you see things from this perspective you’ll feel a sense of peace that you don’t have to try so hard to control everything. Let go and trust in the higher power to guide you. Surrender your worries. Give up your doubt. Let yourself be free from resistance. Faith and fear can’t occupy the same space. Decide to believe in yourself and watch magical things start to happen in your life.
Stop overthinking, worrying, and stressing yourself out. Everything will be okay. It might seem like it at the moment when you’re in the midst of everything, but when you let go and feel that sense of inner ease great things will begin to happen for you. Ease is a state of trust and a powerful way of allowing. Your faith has to be strong in believing that you can manifest and receive what you want.
All your requests and deep desires has been received by the universe. You efforts, your visualizations, and your prayers have been heard. You sent the signal out, now you just have to trust and be patient as your blessings begin to flow into your life. Don’t think about how it will happen, that’s not for you to worry about. Put it out there and let it happen. The universe picks up vibrations and those in gratitude, joy, and love for what they want to receive get them. The grateful get showered in blessings. Instead of overthinking, align your faith with divine timing and trust that everything that belongs in your life is making its way towards you right now.
Don’t block what’s coming by thinking negatively. What you want has been on the way, but your worry, doubt, and lack of trust has been slowing down the process. Start releasing and start receiving. You got this.

Day 13 – Locking it Down with CPM
As much as we would like to keep this as a daily blog, we’ve found that we really only have every other day worth of material. Because lockdown is boring. Every other day is a bit of a stretch at this point, but we will keep at it. Welcome to day 13!
We’d like to give a shoutout to everyone on the front lines. Clerks, cashiers and everyone at the grocery stores! Truckers, delivery drivers; restaurant, fast food and gas station workers! Nurses, doctors and everyone at the hospitals! Garbage collectors, water, sewer, power and internet workers! Thanks for keeping us running! We appreciate you!

La’au Lapa’au | A Brief History of Chloroquine
FDA fast-tracks the drug, modeled after the natural substance quinine in cinchona bark, for use in COVID-19 clinical trials
Editor’s note: The nonprofit American Botanical Council (ABC) is disseminating this information to its members and other stakeholders in the medicinal plant community to provide historical insight into the ethnobotanical approach to drug discovery with respect to chloroquine and its derivative hydroxychloroquine. ABC is not recommending the use of chloroquine or hydroxychloroquine, or any of the quinoline alkaloids on which these drugs are modeled, as treatments or for the prevention of COVID-19. This includes any naturally occurring botanicals with similar or related chemistries. Such recommendations must come from appropriate medical and regulatory authorities after appropriate testing is done. ABC emphasizes that the use of these drugs carries a substantial risk of adverse side effects. ABC has always supported the process of modern drug development from medicinal plant and fungal sources, insofar…

Astrology | Aries New Moon [Astro Weather]
Astro Weather: Snapshot
The lunar cycle is a kind of astrological return that people have lived by for millennia, and each cycle tells a story.Astro Weatherreveals the story, and its issues and theme, so you can be present and harmonize with its planetary energies.
Aries New Moon signifies the start of the new year, spring, and 2020’s is a doozy. This month will be very concerned with healing from wounds we received that weren’t our “fault” but which we could not avoid. These wounds tend to be to the core identity, the body, the face, one’s sense of self.
The silver lining in this is that wounds give us the opportunity to heal, and healing is growing.
This wounding and healing thread is very strong this month, so however it shows up in your life, know that it’s giving you the opportunity to grow, to heal yourself…
