Whoopee!!!!!! 2023 is over!

Leave a comment

There are not words clear enough in the English language to define just how I feel about being finished with 2023. It was one of the most challenging years that I have experienced in a long time. I sincerely hope that was not the way of it for you.

I appreciate the need for years of a 7 nature, but I must admit that I usually find them incredibly difficult times. This last one did not disappoint me! When they include a 0, they could be a bit more gentle, but usually mean a greater challenge is included.

Any unresolved or lingering issue that awaits will rarely fail to present itself at some time throughout the 7’s vibration. They did.

The good side of that is when all issues, challenges, problems, etc. are finally delt with, resolved as much as may be, and one has found the strength to face it all head on, done what can be done and told the rest of it to go to Hell.

I guess I did a lot of that in 2023. Now I am into the second month of a new year, an 8/0 year and I have faith that the vibes of this year will bring strength, courage, change and successes. It is already feeling better and proving to be nicer to me.

Next year will be a 9 vibration and sure to bring many changes to all of us. It is important this year that I, and you, stay focus with our dreams and plans for the near future.

We all spent a lot of 2023, dusting out corners, clearing old unwanted and unused spaces. Cleaning our dwellings, minds, bodies and spirits. The third, fourth and fifth months of 2024 will best be used not dwelling any longer on the last months but building goals of creative energies, strong foundations to support our desires and wishes for the next few years of our lives.

2024 will be a strong personal year for me. I plan on using it well, rebuilding my lost strength from 2023 and pushing forward like a dog running an obstacle course to the win.

I sincerely hope that it is a good year for you, that it does not treat you harshly and that it is full of lovely surprises. I sincerely pray that you will create the best year for yourself and that many, many happy times are ahead of you.

Peace and Love

As a Numerologist, I am forever checking out the vibes of nearly every day. Any nine(9) month can prove to be a challenge and for me this September did not disappoint!

With the energies of a 9, (a 9 ANY THING) the challenges and completions will come. That is an absolute promise. It might be something as simple as to finish rearranging your closet, or as big as choosing a new job and making a big move to a new place.

A number nine, never comes without demanding a change of some kind. A completion. If there are things you have left unfinished, I promise you that “they” will not just go away, never to be thought of again. Whatever it is will be back on the 9th day, or the 18th day or the 27th day or again next September when you will have the opportunity to meet the issue head on and start all over again.

It is best to just deal with it ASAP. Do what you can, when you can, the best you can and then just let go and send “it” on it’s way. There may not be the answer that you had hoped for, but I promise that there will be something that you can do to make an improvement.

If you doubt my words, please don’t. The numbers do not lie. I have proven this to be so, ever so many times for myself.

In front of you, is a 1, yes, a number one….such a great number. It is courageous and intelligent and extremely capable of making good things happen. This particular 1 has a 0 for a partner. October! Couldn’t be any better!

October is loaded with 3’s and 2’s and ends in a 30!!! It is an amazing time for creating and making new beginnings. The new energies are very much alive and vibrating just waiting for YOU to get excited and to start creating a new pathway for yourself.

It doesn’t really matter if you know what you are doing or just how you will do something. It is all about moving!! Just do anything that will get your vibes changing and your creative juices flowing again! Sing. Dance. Paint a picture. Take a walk with nature, hug a baby and smell how sweet she is. Mow the grass….anything that helps to take you away from those other thoughts.

I am a human being just like you, making my way along an often unclear path in my life. Sometimes the fog clears and sometimes it does not. Just like during my HD days, if I stay on my seat and just keep moving forward, I’ll ride out of the fog.

Take care and ride smart and proud.

The Legend of Saint Valentine

Leave a comment

Over a few centuries there have been several different stories about how Valentine’s day came to be. Here is just one of them.

I hope that you have a truly great day spent with those you love.                                                                  Happy Heart! Happy Day!
Be sure to eat lots of chocolate!

Happy Valentine's Day

We are told that Valentine was a kind hearted physician who practiced medicine out of a small room in his home. He always made a special effort to offer his patients medicines that taste good. He would take care to mix bitter tasting medicines with wine, milk or honey to make them more palatable for the sick or injured. He cleansed wounds with wine vinegar and would use freshly ground herbs and roots to relieve pain.  Religion was a significant part of his life and he would lead others to prayer. He often prayed for the health of his patients.

One day a jailer for Roman Claudius knocked on Valentine’s door, clutching his blind daughter, Asteruis, in his arms. He had learned of Valentine’s medical and spiritual healing abilities and appealed to Valentine to treat his daughter’s blindness.

Valentine knew that her condition would be difficult to treat, but he told the man that he would do his best. The little girl was examined, given an ointment for her eyes and a series of re-visits were scheduled.

Several weeks passed and the girl’s sight was not restored. One day, Valentine received a visit from Roman soldiers who arrested him, destroyed his medicines and admonished him for his religious views. Knowing his execution was imminent, Valentine asked the jailer for paper, pen and ink. He jotted a farewell note and handed it to the jailer to give to his blind daughter. Valentine was executed later that day, on 14 February.

When the jailer returned home, his little daughter opened the note and discovered a flower inside. The message said,” From your Valentine.”. As the little girl held the flower in the palm of her hand, she saw brilliant colors for the first time in her life! her eyesight was completely restored!

It appears that all of the Valentine stories eventually convoluted into one. Who knows which is correct?

In 496AD, Pope Gelasius declared the day in honor of St. Valentine. Through the centuries, the holiday became a time to exchange love messages. St. Valentine became the patron Saint of Lovers.
