| Wed. June 24, 2009. Here I am without clear intentions and hopes for this Lunar Month. Actually, I want to support the National Health Care Day of Service which is this Saturday, but the closest public event to me is in Navarre. I'm not driving all the way out there for a picnic. I want to DO something. So I'm looking through my list of places that need volunteers and will do some calling tomorrow. I guess, then, my intentions and hopes are to find a way to help and support my community concerning Health Care Service. I've done various things over the years in volunteering; meals on wheels, hospital guild, cooking at the downtown Mission, and various donations. I want to do something different. |
| Crescent Phase of CANCER new Moon Thurs. June 25, 2009. Keywords: Intentions, wishes, hopes. |
| Fri. June 26, 2009. Looks like Thursday got away from me. This Crescent phase lasts until Monday morning so I do have some time before I'm called to action. However, President Obama asked for Saturday the 26th to be the National Health Care Day of Service. Fort Walton Beach seems to be a not so hot place for following the President's lead or finding volunteer service to perform. It's times like these that I wish I were more of an enthusiastic organizer who people liked to follow. But, alas, I'm not. This area is almost totally Republican and everyday I get e-mails of derision, mocking, and hate concerning my President, whom I stand behind wholeheartedly. When I stand up for him, I get more e-mails telling me why I shouldn't. I've never been in this position before; politically, I mean. Oh, I've always been looked on as a fool for being an Astrologer. But, at least, I was a Republican Astrologer; had SOME sense! I keep reminding myself that no matter how much good people do and how spiritual they become, this is a dual world of good and evil. There will ALWAYS be evil here. All I or anyone else can do is keep it at an even balance by trying to be and do as much good as possible. This is our responsibility. We can't give in to the evil or ignore it. We need to admit it, bless it, and do good in spite of it; both on a personal as well as a general level. |
| Sun. June 28, 2009. Today we are not getting together with the family for dinner. July 4th is coming up this week and we'll do something then. The older kids have jobs so many times they can't come to our get togethers. I didn't find anything positive to do yesterday so I prayed for those on my prayer list who are ill and sent virtual e-cards. Being a Catholic for many years, I still like the ritual of lighting a candle for someone. For anyone who asks for prayers, I light a candle that lasts for 48 hours online. I leave it on my desktop and whenever I come to my computer, I say a prayer for that person. I pray in the manner of the Hunas and Gregg Braden in Secrets of the Lost Mode of Prayer. Rather than pray for specifics, I send light, love, and blessings to the person. In my mind's eye I visualize the light, feel the love, and will the blessings to the other. I've always believed that angels and animals visualize rather than speak and feelings, then, are the wings of what is visualized. When we visualize, then feel; we are using the language of animals. When we put our will behind them, we are using the language of angels. |
| First Quarter Moon Mon. June 29, 2009 Keywords: Challenges, decisions, action. |
| It is only 7:30 am and I don't know what I'm doing up this early; maybe because the Moon is in my Lunar Sign of Libra? I'll have to watch that and see if it happens next month when the Moon is in Libra. During the next three days I need to make a decision and take action on the volunteering service in Health Care. I hope something pops up synchronistically to engage me on that; no success looking before. |
| Wed. July 1, 2009. I spent all Monday morning calling the Crossroads Medical Clinics to try to volunteer. There is one listed in my neighborhood and one in the next town. Neither one answered their phones. The one in my neighborhood had a website and it gave the wrong phone number. Ye gods, how does anyone volunteer around here? I'll try again today. I tried and got an answer from the Fort Walton Beach Crossroads Medical Clinic and they'll send me a volunteer's application; non-medical. Crossroads Medical Clinics charge no fees and are Christian backed clinics for those who can't afford medical care. I would like to do office work or greeting patients. All workers, medical and non-medical are volunteers. Later: How interesting, I just went to my SPIRITUAL FOCUS calendar and they had a page dedicated to the United Way; very synchronistic! |
| Gibbous Moon Fri. July 3, 2009 Keywords: adjust, refine, edit. |
| Hmmmm, this is a weekend where I'm probably going to get all the days mixed up. We're celebrating the 4th on the 5th with the family. When I was between 12 and 18 years old, my paternal grandmother took me on vacation every year. She always asked me when I wanted to leave. I told her 4th of July. I hated fireworks. Then, when we had a Summer home in Minocqua, WI, we always went by boat to Minocqua Lake to watch the fireworks. Since 1990 when we sold our home, I haven't seen fireworks. That's fine with me. I'd rather celebrate quietly with a dinner and family; let them go watch the fireworks. July 4th falls right on my descendant, so it really is an important birthday for me. I see fairly clearly the wonderful, as well as the awful, things about it. But, after all, the 7th House is the home of love/hate relationships. Happy Birthday to the United States of America in God we trust! |
