Whatever you want in life you can have. However everything you want has a price. You must be willing to pay that price to have what you want.

Sometimes you will know the price and sometimes you won’t. However the times that you ignore the price or try to pretend that you do not know what it is, these are the times that you should consider most strongly.

Is the price of what you desire worth it and are you truly prepared to pay that price?

Remember – “An harm ye none do as thy will” applies to yourself as well as everyone else around you.

Energy attracts energy. Sometimes you’ll meet someone and you will either instantly feel attracted or repelled by them and they have not even spoken a word to you. You are reading their energy,  or the very core of their being at the most basic level.

These strong feelings are very important and it is wise to pay heed to them. You could be remembering their soul from when you played in the fields of time and space before. Your soul is recognising their souls signature and energy.

Or, they may remind you of someone you like or dislike, if it is a person you dislike or know them to have not very nice traits, then your unconscious mind is telling you to pay attention to this. Similarly when someone reminds you of someone you like your unconscious mind will have picked up on something they did or a mannerism they may have that is exhibited by a friend. Generally, I have found that this means that I will like this new person too.

One thing that I have found that can still my mind after a busy day when I am having trouble to go to sleep is to pick a topic and then think of words that begin with that topic.  Usually I find myself drifting to sleep whilst being stuck on the letter K!!!

This game stills the whirring thoughts that are disturbing my peace and helps me to breathe calmly and relax.

I have a favourite place that I can go to in my mind if things start to get on top of me and I begin to suffer from overwhelm.  I have a wonderful grove of Scots Pine close to where I live. I often take my dogs there. At any time of the year this place is calm and peaceful. The trees stand sentinel over the forest and the light shines down in shafts at certain times of the day. It is a beautiful, serene place full of the scents of the forest, dappled light and the gentle sounds of the birds. I can picture myself there in an instant and my breathing will slow and I will start to feel at peace once more.

Where is your special place that nourishes your soul?

I wonder how many of us continue along a path that is no longer right for us because of fear of missing out on some imagined future?  Do we cling to a long since  forgotten hope that things will improve, and waste our actual better future by staying stuck where we are?

I think that many are not actually scared of being on their own but are actually scared of losing this false future. After all, have you not invested much time in this current situation so far? Should you ‘throw away’ all of this investment? Or would it be better to spend the time you have remaining in this life actually living a real life rather than pretending and clinging to false hopes? Just a thought.

When asked “what is your favourite season?”, it’s not an easy question for me to answer. Every season holds a different joy for me.

Spring when the light starts to lengthen each day and the buds on the trees start to show fills me with excitement and anticipation of new things to come and I await my garden coming into life.

Summer with its beauty and long warm days, time spent outside and picnics by water with fun and laughter is full of love.

Autumn with the colours changing and the sharpened air, the excitement as we come to the close of the year, Samhain and fires in the evenings always holds a special place in my heart.

And Winter with shortened days, log fires and curled up with a book listening to the rain on the window panes and the wind howling. Long evenings spent with family and crafting. This is a creative time for me.

So what is your favourite season?
