Happy month of June my sweet Blossoms! How’s life treating you? In case you’re new to Blessing Manifesting, every Friday we have our Sacred Journey.
It’s where we all gather here and share love and support for each of our individual journeys.
One day I plan to have an online forum where we can all congregate and form bonds of sisterhood. Until then, this is enough. One day I will run an in-person, monthly, Red Tent gathering, until now, this is what I do. I create this online space where I invite you to sit with me and talk with me, and the other sweet souls who wander here. We all need a space to be ourselves and let our souls speak.
So here’s where I am right now.
I’m finally recovering from the month of stress that was April. With finding a new apartment, figuring out how to move all of my stuff, and spending money I didn’t want to spend, it was stressful. I handled it pretty well although there were days where I’d dip into depression for a little while, I always managed to pull myself out before it got too bad. I’m still getting used to my new space but as it begins to transform into more “me”, I begin to love it even more.
I read and finished the Red Tent and I found myself in tears at the end of it, marveling at the capacity that we, as the wonderful human beings that we are, have for forgiveness and for love. It was truly a beautiful book and I look forward to sharing my review of it this Tuesday. Now I’m going to read Women Who Run With the Wolves, although I’ve heard it’s a difficult read.
I feel like big things are happening for me business-wise. I re-did my coaching and oracle readings page to better shine out with my “me”ness. Right now my Summer Blessings ebook (which I think will be renamed “Sacred Journey: Summer or something to that effect) is being nurtured inside of my creative womb, along with a Self-Love ecourse I really want to release by the end of the year. I’m really excited about it.
If you read last week’s Sacred Journey then you’ll know that a few days ago I went to the movies to see the Avengers (which was completely amazing by the way). I went with my best friend, his kids, and his wife that I used to be very close with until destructive habits on both our parts ended the friendship. I hadn’t seen her in the better part of a year. I was so nervous and worried about seeing her again. It went well, we both played nice and joked with each other and I even got a hug. After the movie when I was back at home I did start to feel a little bit of grief about what used to be. I felt the loss of sisterhood, of my first superclose female friend, and there was some sadness that I had to deal with.
I kept coming back to something a friend said on one of my posts. “I love you… from a distance.” Right now that’s good enough, that’s what’s nourishing, I’m happy that it seems that we’ve moved past the bad stuff of the past and can have good feelings towards each other even if it’s from a distance. I’m happy for the growth.
This month I really want to get back into making and creating art. It feels like it’s been so long since I painted anything and I feel my paints and brushes calling to me. I find myself painting in my daydreams. I need to manifest that into a reality.
So tell me lovely reader, what are your plans for this month? What was your hardest moment last month and how did you get through it? What made you joyful? I would love to hear anything you’d like to share!
That is such a beautiful photo Dominee. It looks like woodlands feel.
I want to get back into making everything and enjoying it! Art, costumes, clothes, dance… I want to create drawings and paintings without expectation, without them having to be good enough to sell, without doing them for something other than my own fun and creative expression. This month I'm gonna try and make some Crap Art :D
You are so beautiful Dominee. I absolutely love you. You never cease to inspire, comfort and make me smile. Thank you for just simply being you. I'm not quite ready to talk about my most difficult moment of last month, but I am looking forward, and I'm really excited about getting to spend time with my family tomorrow! :) Bright Blessings <3
My most difficult moment last month were my moodswings. I've pushed people away, I've made fights, I've cried, I had nightmares. I think it's a normal process for deep inner work, demons come to the surface and all that. How I got through it…journaling, being kind to myself, meditation.
What made me joyful is the little bird who's staying here it the moment. I've saved his life and now I have to feed him every x hours so he can grow up and soon leave the 'nest' to join his family again.
My plans for this month: finding a job which fits me. It sounds so easy but it's not… it's not really about the kind of work, but more about finding the right place, the right people, the right energy. And reading, lots and lots of reading! hehe. :)
Crap art for the win! That's my biggest hang-up with creativity, believing that it has to be perfect.
Big hugs. I know what you mean about the inner work causing lots of strife, it happens to me too, but I am glad that you have your litter bird to remind you that things are okay.
I'm sending you good vibes about the job. I have a really menial job working at Walmart, but the people and the atmosphere make it fun for me, so I totally understand what you need. Fingers crossed for you!
Thank you so much sweetheart! I am so happy that I can make life just a little bit brighter! Enjoy lots of fun time with your family!
I had an awesome month which culminated in launching my website buying my domain name and moving my blog over I am now the proud mamma of http://www.magicallypositive.com and I just couldn't be happier I have been truly inspired by Dominee and so many other goddesses.
One of the most difficult times last month was on our anniversary. I took some of my husband's ashes (he crossed over in December) up to our honeymoon spots and had to do some letting go. The first spot was the most difficult. Was I doing the right thing? Is this really what Roger wanted? I was sitting on a boulder, crying and wondering what to do when the Coopers Hawk (my husbands Spirit animal) flew directly over me and right down the rapids. Then I *knew* he was there with me. And telling me I was doing the exact right thing. He showed up at the other spots and it was extremely healing. So, this was the most difficult and what made my joyful. Knowing, in my heart of hearts, he is still with me.
I was so excited to see you had a blog! I think I bounced up and down a little when I saw your link in the Goddess Circle! I added you to my google reader feed and I am so proud of you and EXCITED for you!
So beautiful. The way you talk about Roger a lot of the times makes tears well up in my eyes not only because I can tell how much you love him, but because I am grateful that he gets to be loved by you. May we all be so lucky to have someone that will love us and cherish us even when they can't physically be with us. Hugs to you, dear, sweet, woman.
I am telling you all, some spiritual awakenings, and readings and reports have been presenting themselves to me. And reading through them, I am honestly moved to tears because of how accurate and astounding the reports have been. (Please consider visiting "Blessing Manifesting" for some inspiration.) I am armed with this information now, so I must figure out how to process it and what steps to take. Without some of you, I honestly do not know how I would make it through a day sane. And family, they mean everything. I am enjoying daily life. And my spirituality and the Divine are infusing me with the thing I treasure most ~ PASSION!
