Goosfraba

7:50 am....  Walking to my car to go to work when I noticed something is wrong, why is everything everywhere in my car??? Oh no.... somebody broke in! Damage control activated! Like in a chess game, we need to evaluate the situation and cut our losses.... Darn, my mom´s rosary is missing.... my Sekhmet pen.... my tetragrammaton that I got 20 years ago in Argentina.... my GPS.... and darn, the spare key of my home!!!!! Panic strikes when I realize now I am not safe... they have a key of my house. I ran to the office where I work, pick up my computer and on my way home I spoke to the property manager so she changes the lock of my house today. The idea of thinking somebody may come over and be able to get in really freaks me out. In the frenzy of adrenaline and fear and anger, I have forgotten I am always protected. I have forgotten I am a powerful witch and I always walk with my angels, guides and protectors. My ancestors also walk with me and they are definitely not happy with this incident as whoever broke into my car took my precious token - my mom´s rosary... the item she gave me for protection.

To curse or not to curse? That´s the question. The scared little girl that lives within me says.... "make them pay" while the adult Priestess says.... "Have compassion, they really don´t know what they took and in the end,  you are the power... not your elements and tools, it´s you." As I move from the stages of feeling from scared, to numbness, to anger... to goosfraba...  I know that this situation feels like a violation of my space, taking my sacred objects and leaving me feeling vulnerable and open. I know how to curse and I also know my power and I definitely would use that as a very last resort because it would just come back to me.

Sometimes we are attached to things and we start thinking the things are the real thing but in reality, it´s all in the vault and these days, as I grow in my skills, I can feel and talk to my mother everyday. She and my witches of East Wick walk with me. They keep me protected and they keep me safe. I don´t need the physical things because in the ether we are all one and that´s the place I am moving towards to. It´s time to let go of the attachments and feel the power that lies within the Witch... no tools... no elements... Just the witch.

My little girl is angry and upset but for her, there is always Goosfraba.....  For me, it is the wisdom of it is not the tools that make the Witch but the Witch that makes the magick.

Many blessings,

Forward

Wake up! The time is now! What are you waiting for? There are times in life when reality decides to slap you on the face so you come back to your senses and see the picture you have created. Is what you see what you really want? Is that what your heart desires? Are you stuck in any areas that are preventing you from moving forward? Are you carrying a bag full of emotions and things that belong in the past and you should leave behind?

Yesterday, I saw a picture of my ex with his new wife and I realized that the clock is ticking and moving forward and I either get on the bus of my own life or just stay stuck in situations forever. I can hear my ancestors screaming "Let it go!!!!!!!!! It´s complete! Don´t carry this bag because that´s not yours anymore.... drop it and move forward!!" 

It´s interesting to see how the message I am getting lately is trust your vibes, what you feel is real and even when you feel it and you know it is true, it is still hard to face reality and see it. You thought it was just you, a figment of your imagination but no... it is true. It´s time to start trusting what you feel, what you see, what you hear because it is all part of the bigger plan - the Divine Plan. This plan does not include your ego fantasies but it includes what you are really meant to do in this lifetime. If you go with the flow of the Divine, you will find yourself living a charmed life as I am experiencing now. Even the painful findings are also guiding me in the right direction, just cutting the cords that keep me trapped in that which no longer serves me.

This weekend, besides having the shocking experience of confirming my feelings, I also got to experience synchronicity and magic in finding the perfect parking spot when I was going to work or in the middle of the city when I was going for dinner. Even today when I said to the universe I need something sweet in my office job, I found a chocolate chip cookie waiting for me in the kitchen. Magic is all around me and I know both the positive things and the challenging things are just ways the Divine has to move me forward, to show me that I can do it and that I should not get distracted with drama or situations that are not serving me anymore. Don´t carry the old lady bag... let it go... drop it so you can be lighter and move more freely. 

Feel the grief and feel it fully for all those dreams that did not come true, all those relationships that are no longer in your life, all those frustrations and disappointments but don´t get attached to them. Let them go and release them so they can be transformed. That energy that is stuck in those feelings can be used for something more aligned with your purpose and with your future self. That self that you are creating today, in your now moment.

Today, I was reading the book "You Can Heal Your heart" by Louise Hay and David Kessler and they were saying at times it is harder to heal from a divorce than when a person passed away because you have to come to the understanding that the person does not want to be with you anymore whereas when they pass, they are no longer in a physical form to be able to share with you,  so people tend to keep fantasies of getting back together or fixing things when the other party is alive. I do have to agree that this is true as I have experienced both types of losses and divorce or broken friendships feel really harder than accepting the passing of significant other because I feel I can connect with those who have passed while with the living, there is no connection anymore. 

The secret is in knowing that even though there is no connection, the love shared can not be destroyed and it exists forever. That love that was expressed and felt is always so in the spiritual planes so we do not have to hold anger of fear but know that the situation is complete in this plane now and we can move on to the future. It is time to leave the past behind, don´t get stuck in grieving and move forward.

Move forward.... forward....

Love and Light,

11:11 Make a Wish!

11:11 means different things to different people. In America, it is Veterans´ Day. In China, it is Single People Day. For me 11:11 means magick! You get to make a wish and see the power of intention at work. The question becomes, what wishes do you have? Are your wishes your true heart´s desires? How bad do you want them to become true?

When we work with the power of intention, we have to be mindful of all the voices around us and within us. Many times we say we want to have a meaningful job but then we start telling ourselves that meaningful work does not pay well and there goes our dream down the drain because our unconscious mind does not understand the positive or negative, it only agrees with us so it will bring to our lives whatever we are thinking whether it is positive or not. This is one of the reasons why it´s easier to manifest a negative situation than a positive one because somehow we are wired to believe the negative is possible and the great is just a dream.

If we want to manifest our desires, we need to align ourselves with our purpose and use both the power of intention and the power of attention to bring that we wish to manifestation. If you want to be abundant, focus on abundance, intent to be abundant and remove the phrases "money does not grow on trees" "I can´t afford that" "I don´t have money for that" among other phrases from your vocabulary. Again, remember your unconscious mind does not know the difference so it will say yes to anything you say whether is I am the richest woman in the world or I can´t even afford a pancake. The choice is yours because our words have power. If you find yourself saying something negative, just say cancel cancel and affirm the positive. The more you affirm your wishes, the more chances they will manifest. If you don´t believe in the dreams you have, how could the Universe believe in them? It starts with you. Be mindful of your words, be mindful of your actions and be also mindful of your no action because not doing is doing in a way. 

Yesterday, I was working on the Ritual For Living Dreamwork and Planner questions and there were a couple of questions that made me think a lot about. One was - "when you get to the end of your life, what would you like to have accomplished?" To this question, many things came to my mind such as I would like to have written my books, created my oracles, helped people in their spiritual journeys, change the world for the better, among other things. When I ask a friend, his response was quite simple and that surprised me because I thought wow, is that all you want? Sometimes simplicity is great but when it comes to manifestation, I believe the more details you have, the better. The clearer you can see it and imagine it, the easier it will be to bring it to life. Everything starts with a thought and I do believe in the saying "If you can dream it, you can create it". With this concept in mind, I try to give as much color as I could to what I want to create whether it is a new job, a new relationship, a new home, or anything that I want to manifest. I still imagine it and finish my prayer... or something better! Because I am aware there are my plans and there are the Divine plans and I am always co-creating with the Divine.

The other question that called my attention was "Where in your life you feel you are not fully present or fully participating?" I thought some areas where I feel they contract my energy instead of expanding it. Places I feel are not positive or up-lifting. Relationships that are not adding anything but at times take away. This question made me think that I want to be present in every area in my life and if I am not present, maybe that´s an area that needs decluttering and letting go to provide space for those things that are fulfilling, that are illuminating, that are expanding my energy. Do you have any areas in your life where you feel you are feeling stuck or contracted? If yes, what are you going to do with them? Can you afford spending the time and energy on places where you are not fully present? Once again, the choice is yours. Just be aware that those areas will take from the energy you have to manifest those things you want.

11:11 brings magick and allows us to create. It´s up to us what we create. We can create heaven or we can create hell with our words, our intentions and our wishes. Be mindful of what you ask for as it may come true. 

11:11 - Make a Wish!

Love and Light,

Shall we dance?

Life is a continues dance with its ups and downs, its twists and turns, its jumps and pauses.  Sometimes it´s like a slow romantic dance while other times it seems we are in the middle of a heavy metal song and all we can do is scream. This year has been a year of discovery where I found some new tunes and some new moves that have guided me towards my soul purpose.

The first tune I had to listen to was the tune of my heart. What do I want in this lifetime? What´s my purpose? What´s my mission? What makes me happy? If I have to complete the phrase I love... what comes after? I love helping people. I love reading the Tarot. I love being a Priestess. I love being psychic. I love cooking. I love writing. I love teaching. I love being a Druid. I love being in Nature. I love dancing! I love.... As I completed this exercise, I discovered those things that make me who I am today because there are times when we get lost in the layers of life or we get attached to the roles we play to the extend that we lose our essence. After my divorce, I had to find my essence once again and become Carolina Amalia Amor once again.

After I reconnected with myself and started listening to the beats of my own drum, it was time to connect with the symphony of guides and spirits that walk the path with me by my side. Each of these guides has its own tune and brings its own dimension to the music of my life. Without one of them, our symphony would be incomplete. Some danced to the beats of rock and roll while others were dancing salsa and then there were the ones that were just admiring the classical music. As I connected with them, I started seeing that there was more in life than what meets the eye and we have our compass. Our body knows the steps, we just need to reconnect and tune into the radio station that plays our coming home song. We all come with our own set of musicians that make our life a beautiful masterpiece symphony. It only takes courage and openness to be able to listen the beats of our heart and eliminate all the distortions that we get from the environment and the tribal mandates.

Reconnecting with the orchestra members of my life showed me that if I wanted to succeed, I needed to believe in my dream and align myself with it. I needed to be flexible and movable because my dream may not manifest in the way I envisioned but it will manifest if I flow like water and trust that it takes two to tango, my desires and the Divine timing. When you dance, you need to trust your partner and if you do, the dance will flow smoothly no matter how many obstacles you may face. In the dance of your life, your partner is the Divine. Shall we dance?

Love & Light,
