When you are wanting something from someone, the way to do it is not through a guilt trip. This will only push people away from you! Taking into consideration what the other person feels about things will help you to see another side. If you are only thinking of self, there is no use for the other person to be talking because their words will not be heard by you. Think of the actions of this because, its a chain reaction that effects more than the person being pushed by the one giving the guilt. All are effect one way or another without you knowing it.

We are what we eat.

Preservatives

Have you ever thought on what preservatives do to our bodies? I was thinking if preservatives preserve food for years then what is it doing to our bodies after we ingest it? Maybe preservatives help preserve us? Could it be helping us to live a longer life? What if preservatives help preserve the stuff we want to move out of our bodies? Could preservatives help to preserve our fat? If preservatives may help preserve our fat then could that be a reason so many of us are overweight? Almost everything offered at the grocery has preservatives. Should we go start baking our own breads again?

Throughout the orchard grounds I strolled. Where warblers trilled, and orioles burst forward in song in blossoming trees. Where butterflies and honey bees sipped nectar from the fragrant blooms that drarfed the scent of all perfumes. The air of spring was fresh, indeed. The greening grass lay at my feet. Overhead hung boughs of blossoms pink.... In springtime's chain each was a link.

Animal Guides .... Horse

The horse is one of the most well known animals in its time. many legends, lores, and mytholgy mentions the horse.

In Chinese astrology the horse is associated with appeal and persuasivenes. Hores are sumbols of freedom, often time without the proper restraints. Horse people in Chinese astrology are friendly and adventurous, and they can be very emotional.

The horse enable people to find freedom from the constraints of their own communites. This enabled them to travel and to discover the multiplicity of life and all of its power. Horses have great appeal to most people. We are fascinated by them, and riding one raises us above the mundane, and renews our sense of power. Riding horse has been compared to flying by many people. They signify the wind and even the foam of the sea......

Have you ever tried Pyromancy?

Pyromancy is the art of interpreting the shapes a candle flame makes along with the way it dances and burns. First, place your candle in a heat proof holder and place it in from of you at eye level, then close your eyes and breathe deeply for a few minutes. Try to relax and raise yourself to a higher state of being. Now open your eyes, whisper your question to the candle and light the wick. Stare past the flame. Dont stare directly into it, but watch it out of corner of your eye, letting it blur slightly. Notice it dance for a few minutes. Hold your question in your head and observe what the candle does over a few seconds.

Interpert your answers with its activity below.

Active, buring brightly
A postive yes answer

Blazing suddely
Something unexpected is heading

your way

Wont light or smoulders
Something is brewing so have patience

Red flame
Beware of inner anger. Dont let

your feelings rule ya

Spiralling wax
Wax that falls in a spirital around the candle indicates a spirit may have a message for you

Images in the flame
If you reach a trance like state

you'll receive information from
your higher self

Halo around the flame
Be cautious

Yellow flame
Get creative and start communicating

Flickering
Your being lazy about your situation.

Energize yourself then take action

Mainly blue flame
This means you or other people are

lacking energy, making the project
slow down to a stop

Dripping wax
Wax falling on the left leads to a

negative outcome, wax to the right is
postive

Big movement in the flame
Your situation is changing. If the

flame moves mainly to the right,
things are going to improve

Faint flame
This indicates uncertainly. its best

not to act in the heat of the moment. Try to distract yourself for a few days

Let go of the bad...

Welcome the good. No matter how difficult your day was, try to think about one wonderful moment that made you happy. Rethinking stressful events in your day can instantly raise your blood pressure. People who think optimistic thoughts, by contrast, have more energy and feel calmer.

Tension?

Try this tension release quickie... Take a deep breath then exhale, firmly press your fingertips together for 10 seconds without inhaling. Then inhale and notice that your tension evaporated!

An idea for Cleansing of self..

Crystal Cleansing

Here you can take a clear quartz crystal which you have cleansed with running water before hand and, see in your mind the energy from the crystal coming into your energy then pulling your energy into itself and then sending it back out into your energy nice and positive feeling :)

~~~~*~~~~~~*~~~~

You are never given a wish without also being given the power to make it true!

Sit up straight

Slumping over the keyboard
requires more muscle activity,
so it uses more energy. It also
inhibits blood circulation, which
means that your body is not
getting all of its oxygen and other nutrients it needs to function as it should be. So sit up straight!!!!

What do you like?

Sometimes we spend many
hours thinking on what displeases
us, hurts us. Try thinking more frequently on what you like,
what makes you happy.
Replacing negative thoughts
with more positive thoughts
could help manifest a more
pleasing and fulfilling life.
