Time Makes it Easier...
I just revisited my last post to this blog. And I have to admit that I am proud of the way my life has been moving along as I continue to heal and regroup.
Lessons Learned:
Forgiveness is for you. Many close friends could not understand how I did not get caught up on and stuck in anger with the dissolution of my marriage. Well, I choose to lead by example, knowing that I want to treat others the way I want to be treated. I am not perfect. But, I work at always trying to do my best. I want a partner who is enamored with me and loves me unconditionally. I was no longer feeling the unconditional love and support, so I accepted eventually and I take the good from our long time together, and start to rebuild, regroup, and move forward...for the first time in my adult life not in a unit. Although acknowledging that after so long together, we have ties and bonds that will always be.
Loving a person is letting them walk their path. Sometimes paths merge and sometimes they split. That is life. Things are in constant change.
Realizing that I truly honor truth! I can stand and say I am honest and true. That is important to me.
This at times has been a test of my faith in believing I am always supported and that the universe is guiding me to where I need to be.

Moving Through the Pain
Sometimes in life people surprise you, and not in a good way. I have been going through a major life change as I separate from my husband, a person who I truly thought was a partner for life. As soon as I became truly cognizant that we would be splitting for good, I turned to my cards 🔮, at times in a feverish manner as I sought guidance and a sense of peace, to ground me as I tried to cope with the pain and loss of what I once thought would be an eternal love.
555 (a change is occurring) started to reveal itself in time sequences daily. My manifestation deck kept telling me that the current changes in my life were blessed. I tried to believe (and as time goes on it gets easier, I am now two months into the process). I started to not recognize my husband as he fell for another woman. In fact his relationship began while we were still in our relationship and I thought just going through a rough time. I escaped to the familiarity of my parents home. And he into the arms of another. Lesson learned, nothing is forever. And if you truly love, you will remain unattached, and when it is time, you will let go. I am still working on letting go, it gets easier with each passing day. One of the main problems in our relationship is that I became too attached, and now I am learning how to be me again, and free!
I was more lost than I had ever been and I needed guidance. As such teachers started to appear! I found awesome websites like PurposeFairy.com which I devoured as I embraced this time of change and reinvention. I found a great friend through a chance on-line encounter and she has been a great support to me...guiding me to reconnect with the goddess within, and so I have begun to... pulling goddess cards daily and then googling how to invoke the various goddesses into my daily life.
Deep meditation and reflection revealed to me that I had lost my light. The former vibrant and independent me had gotten lost in the us. I am starting to find myself again and make my own way! I am starting to find my way through deep meditations, journal work and self reflection, reading "Heal Yourself Heal Your Life" by Louise Hay, working with goddess, doing mantras daily to Ganesha the remover of obstacles and Kuan Yin who brings in compassion. And following my heart as it guides me to a better place and heals from a deep loss. These are some of the things that have helped me through this truly difficult time, and I hope if you are going through a similar experience, that some of this stuff helps you too.
In light,

Riding the Wave of Change
There are definitive moments in your life where you realize that there is no turning back and that things will never be the same. This is a powerful time. Today was the 8/8 loin's gate---> and we are headed into a powerful full moon this Saturday.
My truth is that I have been in the process of reconnecting with myself and the goddess within. It was time because things in many ways had gotten very low for me (perhaps my lowest). I somehow lost my focus and way. But, the tools I had gathered over the years are what lead to my salvation. At our lowest points on the path of life, the downward turn signals that it is time to turn within.
"If you can't find light in the darkness, then you will never find it at all"
~Lon Milo
And so I have. For me this past month has been a time of deep introspection.
I felt dejected and alone, which was a signal that I needed to rebuild community, and so I did. My inner circle is very small, but you always have what you need. The comfort of long term friendships is unparalleled. And, yet a chance encounter can spark a soul connection, that has lasting impact and will profoundly change you as well, the key is to be open. God is there to help you in the way that you need, and the way that you need is not always the way that you want.
Forgiveness, and moving forward are the only way. Holding onto anger and pain will just slow you down and hold you back. Sometimes you have to just accept, surrender, and release. Trust in you because that is who ultimately has your best interest at heart. And stand in love, pray, have faith, and know that you can get through, and you will always be ok.

~ A quote from the book I am reading
"Artists and creative people who seek inspiration on a daily basis know that the channel to the Above must be kept clear. When an artist is 'in his element,' he is creating something new and wonderful that, surprisingly, is not originating from him but through him."

Constant Contemplation...Thoughts from the Road
Queen of Swords, Mystic Fairy Tarot:
My last post alluded to the fact that I have set out on a journey...seeking the esoteric in my everyday path (in fact I have been doing this for quite some time, but now I have officially left home). I have left the nest with my cards on hand. For me Tarot cards serve as a magical guide, allowing me to tune in and track syncs as I engage with the symbols of the cards, uncovering their meaning in my 3rd dimensional life.
I recognize that my life's circumstances have made me seemingly withdrawn, cool, and reserved. And I have very much been confronted with breaking these aspects of myself, built up through living and engaging with trying life circumstances for quite some time. In fact the card write up for the Queen of Swords which I pulled from The Mystic Fairy Tarot today stated:
This write up is very much tied to who I am and how I feel at this time. I am delving into self, realizing that I have a hard time trusting, and yet I find that one of the keys is to trust in source, and the constant energy of never ceasing support. I am blocking my own manifestations with a lack of faith in others, due to traumas of the past that I am on this journey working to release. Other guidance has alerted me to the fact that it is in the chance meetings, and my openness with my dreams and goals that will allow my manifestations to happen.
Fairy tales and the Bible remind us to always walk in kindness, with an open heart, willing to share because you never know when you are entertaining an angel or fairy unaware. People are inherently good. I am on a journey to remember that, while also tracking personal syncs and symbols along the way, rebirthing my faith and trust in fellow man, along with my faith and trust in self.
Below is a stained glass piece that I have encountered on my journey, in it there is a symbol that is extremely personal to me. Seek and ye shall find, this is one of the symbols I seek as a guide...

Change~ The Goddess Pele has Entered my Life
I am a traveller at heart and the syncs of life have sent me out on a journey, testing me to walk the walk and hit the road in search of deepening my life experiences. I am not alone, I am on this journey with my life partner, and as I go over photos and video clips captured over the last five years, I realize that this trip has been a long time in the making.
This trip is a key to helping me unlock the mysteries that are embodied in my journey and inquiry into the deeper/hidden aspects of the human experience, bits and pieces of which have been captured on Nereid's Enchantments. So now this blog is taking on yet another dimension as I journey into the unknown and hit the road in search of personal and universal truth.
Searching for the truth I am. Truth of God and truth of Man...Today I stepped off the precipice of the fool and hit the road in order to reconnect with myself, appreciating the mysterious wonder that is life each and every day.
