* The Meditation Room *
This card is most important for me
To be able to focus on my transformation is so important
Help with staying on task with what is happening in the now is crucial to the outcome of this change
Your previous mention of the darkness I am traveling through can be overwhelming
To remain focused on the light while allowing myself "to feel" is all part of this journey

Ahavati said:Happy it's resonating. Butter is a great color, but only in moderation unless you want to become uber critical! I always enjoyed it as accents, particularly in the kitchen. .
Does this include butter on my lips which I have overindulged in today ?
I bought bed sheets recently which could be considered butter
Is it wise to sleep on these sheets for an average expected duration as with sheets of a different color
Would I be sure to pair them with the colors you mentioned ?

Sheets are fine! Besides, you're sleeping between them. What I mean by overload is to walk into a room with butter walls and furniture! Sheets, pillows, curtains and other accents enhance a room and provide just enough without going overboard. One of the prettiest rooms I ever saw was Belgian grey walls, grey furniture, stark white trim, and yellow accents. You just wanted to melt into it and relax. lol

That sounds lovely
One of the most shocking blends that had a calming dreamy effect was maroon and lavender
Thank you
I like this so much❤️

Apologies up front.

I'm unsure why you're apologizing, Harry. I found that to be a very enlightening and unbiased presentation. There is a lot I agree with in regards to his philosophy. He sought and found beauty in despair ( which there definitely is beauty of contrast ( for me ) within it ). Whereas others find it in joy ( a contrast to him, most likely ).
It's horrible how he suffered such a severe case of insomnia; the lack of rest which undoubtedly affected his mental state as well as point of view. While I do agree that writing was his saving grace during the ensuing depression, I also have to wonder if he subconsciously convinced himself he couldn't've written without it; thus, became dependent upon it—even to the point maybe of not being able to sleep ( much like someone with bulimia or anorexia cannot keep food down ). The mental process and subsequent practice actually created the physical conditions with which they had to live.
I felt a great compassion for him as I watched, and hope he found some modicum of joy and happiness throughout his lifetime.

Full Cold Moon
( Also referred to as Oak Moon & Long Nights Moon )
With the arrival of Winter Solstice, the tilting point that brings us back to the point where the days will begin to get a little bit longer. Yule and other holidays have dominated the arrival, typically bringing friends and family together to give gifts and make pleasant memories that add to the tapestry of our personal traditions and celebrations. It has been quite different this year with covid-19 and social distancing.
This circumstance has created the space to appreciate those in our lives we may have taken for granted; the downtime to re-create our story and step into what we may truly want to become; and, created many empty chairs at tables from those who crossed over this year. It's been a dark blessing in many ways, and a very painful one in others. But the light is returning. . .
While ushering in Winter, December also offers an atmosphere of joy love, and hope that can add extra fuel to your moon magic. I typically eschew sharing spells here; however, have decided to share a Healing one in hopes it helps someone:
Healing Spell
Try this spell to open yourself up to healing energies. If possible, go outside where you can see the moon. If that's not possible, you can simply imagine the moon orbiting around the earth, traveling with us as we circle the sun Now envision your body as housing within it a sacred space—your own space.
Are you getting uncomfortable feelings from this space? Is there anything lingering here that you would rather not welcome in this space anymore?
Imagine as you exhale slowly and deeply that you are pushing out of your inner space anything that you do not welcome there. Once you feel that your inner space is as open and clear as you can possibly get it at this time, think of the healing energy that you welcome, an energy of love and will everlasting, a force of vitality, renewal, reuvenation. Envison this energy amidst the many rays of moonlight reflecting down upon the earth and you.
You can also write down anything that you wish to release, ignite it, and watch the smoke and ashes of it rise upward, and the Moon, in all her benevolent mercy, absorbs it, transforming it into light, and returning it until you in the form of a blessing of light.
What was once dark is now light.
Don't forget to bathe your ritual tools in warm water and gentle detergent before setting them out to absorb the power of the moon. Take special care not to wash those crystals which can't be washed ( selenite, etc. ).
Also, moon water is amazing to make; Just set a glass jar full of water out overnight and it absorbs the power of the moon. You can add sage and essential oil for a clearing spray; or, salt, lavender, and essential oils to add to bath water throughout the month.
When we believe, we create miracles within ourselves.
Happy Full Moon! And may the Blessings be Abundant.

Being that it is cold as heck and snowy, I for one will be surfing those moonbeams in my imagination. 😌💭🌚

Lovely, Harry. One of my favorite books is the Đạo đức kinh. Can you believe that it was actually a metaphor about resilience by Bruce Lee ( in the early 70's, I believe ) that led me to Confucious and ultimately Laozi?!

“In order to control myself I must first accept myself by going with and not against my nature.”
