Although it doesn’t show everything, it does give you a good idea of some of the modalities can be used. To see it larger, go to Katie’s blog.
In the past few years I have been looking into Alternative Medicine since I am not all that happy with traditional medicine. I am tired of pills, blood tests, and all of that – certainly isn’t doing good things to my body. I am working on what the root cause of my experience is and what in my thought patterns, emotions, energy, etc. – what people might call woo-woo, airy fairy or touchy feel stuff. Since it is out of the mainstream, most people think it is a lot of baloney. However, I am finding more and more that it is helping me and it is a community I feel more at home.
I have often felt out-of-place and uncomfortable in the business world where cold calls, networking and all that “Life is real, Life is earnest” competitive stuff. I decided to have fun with my promotional marketing business and see how that works. Though I have found in the last two years I haven’t been working with my business because of Mom and taking care of her affairs, a broken hip and lately with finding an adult family home, then applying for Medicaid and then 5 weeks of flu.
So in between taking care of all those things, I have had some regular clients still ordering and I have done a lot of work on myself. I have a couple of immediate goals, one is to get my energy back and continue working on my healing and spiritual awareness. I also am at a crossroads in my life – do I want to continue promotional marketing or go with a specific direction? I also have some things I want to do that are my own, this is now the time for me to do it.
Part of woo woo is angel cards, oracle cards or tarot cards. I have been receiving Monday morning Soul Card Readings – all of them are spot on about going in my own direction. To have courage, stand up for myself, empowerment, generosity, even one about writing. I am listening more to my intuition – I actually have it after all – and beginning to trust it. This is one of the cards that came from Doreen Virtue’s Ascended Masters deck, the other is from Denise Linn’s Gateway Oracle Guidebook:
Yesterday when I was having my massage, Debye was working on the back of my left hip and suddenly the words “stuck energy” came up. Later I told her about it and she said she felt the release of energy when she was working there. To some that just touchy feel stuff and weird or oddball – it really isn’t anything. It felt right to me.
I am married to a Point A to Point B guy – the straightest path between 2 points. I am a Scenic Route. This applies to traveling in the car as well as how we talk or do things. I don’t say much to him about what I am learning and experiencing because he thinks it’s goofball stuff. We are each entitled to our own opinions, his interests are aviation, car and heavy-duty trucks and their parts, what’s going on in the world and at home – he doesn’t understand my stuff. We always used to say “You don’t have to be crazy to live in our family, but it helps”.
One thing I learned from Debye was asking Dr Lang – an ascended master – to put his “something something” in a glass of water by my bed at night. In the morning, I would drink it. He saw me doing this for quite a while and finally asked what was I doing? Was it hocus pocus water? Rather than explain, I told him “Yes, it is.” I think there are times when he doesn’t quite know what to make of me, what I think and what I do. I found a really cool stemmed glass at Good Will for my hocus pocus water.
I would have had this post done on Friday but I have been looking through the Soul Card Monday readings looking for certain cards that came up. Then I spent a lot of time trying to get them on the same line, but I keep forgetting that what I see as I write is wider than the actual blog. Hence photos have a tendency to not fit it. I am still getting the hang of how to put things in and to make it look good. I also spent a long time looking for something to illustrate woo woo or goofball – mostly what I found for woo woo was a drink that had booze in it, not quite what I had in mind. Well, that’s the thing about writing a blog, sometimes everything really clicks and other times it gets a bit cattywampus. This week is cattywampus. Enjoy!
