Wishcasting Wednesday

from jamie’s post

What do you wish to become?

A kind and gentle person, with a sane mind and open heart. Wholehearted and of benefit to others.

An example of health. Well-fed, well-rested, well cared for and loved, gentle and kind and wise and strong in all things, balanced.

A certified yoga and meditation instructor. These practices have offered me so much, helped and healed me, made me strong and sane, and I would like to be able to share them.

A published author. I’m finally starting to appreciate the wisdom of this not happening for me sooner. I’m so much clearer about what it would mean now–it’s a way in/out, a window, a door, a vehicle, auspicious and shared moments on the path of embodying and manifesting basic goodness.

A person who makes a living from what I’m loving. With no concern for a work/life balance because it’s all just life, it’s workable and enables me to earn what I need and give what I need.

An inspiration and support to others attempting to embody and manifest their basic goodness, an example of what a fully realized, healthy and sane, fearless life looks like. With a brave and open heart, changing things for the better, easing suffering in the world. Completely aware that I am enough and I have enough, life utterly simplified, distilled down to only that which is essential.

A beacon of ease and joy, radiating sanity and comfort, altering the energy of space, softening the environment, shifting the experience of those I encounter to one of peaceful abiding, calm awareness, no matter what the circumstances.

To at all times be the opposite of a shit storm, and instead be a joy bomb, a three ring happy fest, a gentle frenzy of compassion, a one person flash mob of love.

Full Moon Dreamboard: The Full Buck Moon

When I got up this morning, the full moon was hanging, white and bright, over the ocean. I was surprised by its size, its light, and it felt like I was the only one, that it was just me, the dogs, the moon and her ocean. It was magic.

Jamie describes the Full Buck Moon this way: There’s such gorgeous, lively energy under the Full Buck Moon! On the new moon, as we began gathering for our dreamboards, I invited you to ask yourself, “What are my most powerful dreams? Who am I when I am powerful?” The Full Buck Moon is a time for stepping into that power. Now is the time to set intentions for bold action and big dreams, the time to take action and assert your presence in the world. Now is the time to take a stand and say, “Here I am! Here is what I’m dreaming!” Sharing your dreams here is a great way to start!

Full Buck Moon

The Full Buck Moon asks: “What are your most powerful dreams? Who are you when you are powerful?” It was hard to get a good picture of this one, being on vacation and without my scanner, and because my dreamboard was so full, it took up a double wide page.

The Power
Imagine having nothing to hide.
Imagine all you had to do was be yourself by doing the things you love to do.
More fun = does good.
Entertaining and surprising.
Immerse yourself in everything.

At home in nature, sit happens.
On the bright side, real shit happens.
Healthy self-reliance, sensitive simple laid-back girl power.
A quiet mind and compassionate heart.
Possibility, promise, and potential.

Choose kindness.
Keep calm, create.
Spread happiness, words.
Fall in love with balance.
Live your best life, a life you love.

Books have hearts and wings, along with kind words.
Life happened because I turned the pages.
As a writer, you ask yourself to dream while awake.
Women who make beautiful things,
transform the world as you transform yourself.
Magic and medicine.
That’s what the book is about: how we can bear what we cannot bear.
Love, loss, and what she learned.
The power of letting go.
Focus, harnessing inner strength.

The light in me sees the light in you
and recognizes the source of this light to be the same.
The weirdness in me bows to the weirdness in you.
We are all connected.

Your life, my life is a sacred opportunity.

Hi.
Welcome.
Om.
Namaste.
Thank you.
Amen.
