A Wisdom Rx Blessing called forth by David MacKenzie and Susan Perkins.
Your voice is not what you think it is.
So often you speak from your memory.
Ideas shape your words.
There is a longing within you to hear the current of life you are.
Meet Squinty the Magic Cat, The Newest Member of Wisdom Rx.
Sometimes desires take time to mature. We’ve been thinking about having a cat for several years. Serendipity and desire brought us a cat who’s a lot of fun. Our friend Bill upon leaving our house around midnight one evening heard a cat meowing in the bushes. Twenty minutes later after digging the cat out from the thicket our door bell rings and Bill is standing there holding Squinty and hands him over to David.
He’s called Squinty because his left eye squints a bit. We’ve learned, by reading on the internet that when cat’s blink at you it is a sign of love. Squinty is a love magnifier, smart, quirky and playful. He loves to sit on David’s shoulder during sessions.
And he’s magical because he can change the most ordinary moment into one of surprise and delight. Instead of working at getting what we wanted, we let go and trusted. Serendipity and desire brought us an added love magnifier who is ready to work.
When we learn to honor the ebb and flow, the natural rhythm of our lives, the “work” that we do can be easier and maybe even more effective by learning when to stop and rest in the richness of our lives outside of what we do to make money.
If you’re reading this going into your day of work, you can even stop work and notice that you are a free being always bigger than the limits of any task.
Beloveds,
There are ways that enslavement happens.
Work, no matter how much joy may be present, needs to end.
Once there was a man, who loved what he did so much he never put his tools down.
At first his friends thought him noble because indeed he was a master.
Soon his children stopped asking him to play because his hands were full of tools.
His wife became more lonely day by day, because the tools were in the way.
Over the years we have received many requests for blessings, most often during sessions. Lately we have written blessings for weddings, surgeries, doctor visits and family conflicts.
As part of our offering to our collective evolution, we will be sending you blessings periodically from the spiritual team that works with us when we work with clients. We offer these blessings as reminders to receive from the spirit of life the gifts of your wise heart and loving nature.
Nineteen years ago, our friend David Z. was on vacation in southern Colorado with his buddy who he describes as a gray haired, Jewish, neuro-psychologist from Brooklyn. They stayed in a log cabin motel with a bar.
That night, the jukebox stopped playing and his friend asked if he could play the piano and sat down and played boogie-woogie. After one song, the place went wild. As David Z. describes, a Harley rider, with a slicked back pony tail, old fashioned tattoos, wearing an unfashionably tight t-shirt, went outside returning with a whole set of harmonicas and joined in. For David Z. these two guys couldn’t have been more different.
This quote from The Book of Love and Creation by Paul Selig is like holy water to us. Roots are quiet and the foundation of all that grows. We have roots just like a tree. They provide grounding and nourishment to our lives.
This tree is a great example of “as Above, so Below’. The canopy of leaves is about the same size as the roots below.
We, like this tree, are rooted in Love. Remembering our real roots is easy to forget or disconnect from. We tend to think we’re in charge of love and thankfully we’re not. Love waters our roots. It’s the nutrient we long for.
