Wow, amazing results!

I have been practicing my rituals every morning, and it is so centering to start the day with some protection and cleansing.  It’s funny, the one I have been having a hard time with is the Calling Upon (the ‘square’), because we didn’t practice it nearly as much as the others.  Thank you, Amanda, for these amazing tools.

I had an experience today that illustrated how much more sensitive I have become.  I have noticed the energy shift drastically in the Arbor Lodge New Seasons, since one of their employees was murdered last week.  She worked in the deli in the mornings, and th physical space there is saturated with the grief and disbelief everyone has been feeling.  (I’ve been putting together a volunteer campaign for energy workers to treat the staff and the space, too.)  I have been avoiding the store because of its energy, but today I went to set up logistics for the volunteer energy workers to come in.  As soon as I sat down in the conference room, someone came in and told us to clear out because the victims parents were here.  I gave them my card, we decided to set it all up over email, and then, it happened.  I passed by the grieving family on my way out, and it felt as if I had been blindsided by a truck.  I scurried out of the store, found a corner, and wept.  As soon as I could get to a safe place, I used my rituals to put my protective walls back up.  Lesson learned; even though I am more sensitive and powerful than I was before the initiation, I still have a lot to learn before I can handle this higher grade of sensitivity.  I’m counting on you, Amanda, as my mentor, to teach me.

Yasmin, Shivoso, I would love to hear about something amazing that happened to you this past week.  And I’d like you to join me in making a list of people who you will personally talk to about taking miss Jones’ next initiation.
