The Flower-The Fruit-The Seed

I am reading, Seven Stages On A Woman’s Journey of SpritRemember Who You Are by Linda Carroll. I picked it up at The Dragon and The Phoenix last weekend. I am only on page 27 and have already enjoyed it thoroughly. Linda talks about the Celtic tradition of describing the woman’s life cycle as “the flower (girl), the fruit (the mother), and the seed (the elder).” This is the first I’ve heard of this.

I’ve always heard, maiden, mother crone. Sounds kinda depressing – I like flower, fruit and seed much better!

I have also been praying recently to be more impacted by and impressed with the written word. I’ve always had a disdain for books-even though I love reading-I felt that they could not seriously impact a life. I’ve seen people close to me read the most thoughtful, spiritual and growth oriented books and receive nothing from them but intellectual knowledge. This is important but not where true life changing power comes from.

I felt that if I am ever to feel good about writing my book/s I must be at peace with and excited about the whole medium! So I found this tidbit that I read so much more tantalizing!

There are multiple books that I have gotten tons from but that I’ve only begun and never finished. I think that I will design my book specifically with this in mind! Maybe I can write the whole think summed up in 20 pages and then elaborate for the rest. I want to give value-even to those who don’t finish the book!

My first seance-it was real, empowering and fun

I had an amazing night last night. I attended a Seance with Rev. Donna and her spirit guide, Ms. Tulip. There were 7 of us plus Donna in the room-it was amazing! I highly recommend it!

I met my spirit joy guide, Darienne-a trickster with brown hair, violet eyes and wearing bloomers! I didn’t actually see her-this was the description that I heard. She encouraged me to wear jewelry with bright colors-especially yellow-I am seeking a yellow stoned necklace now. She likes plaid because she likes bright colors. I also have a little dog with me. I’m looking forward to hearing the recording for more details that have already left me.

My guide is helping me to open the doors to spirit-I am looking forward to seeing what that is all about.There were a lot of male spirits who visited-I was surprised that there were not more Goddesses, but I did hear that Kuan Yin was there-I must learn more about her! I was really surprised at the distinct personality and gender that each spirit showed.

Anyway-it was a wonderful and cool night and I look forward to going back again soon.

Another day-another post.

I will be having lap band surgery! On Jan 8 or 10 most likely. News to come. Goddess works in mysterious ways.

I feel that a profound truth must come from this blog-but I’m sure my reader will understand that I’m just happy and scared.

I wish I could say readers-but not quite yet.

What did I do to feel like a Goddess today? Asked my hubby to cuddle with me. He, I and little one all cuddled up in bed and watched a movie. He is so warm and his energy recharges me.

Oh-today is Yule. Blessings to all.
