Venus Transit of the Sun

Hope every one is enjoying Venus's transit of the Sun today. An event no one alive today is likely to experience again!
On a spiritual level this transit is said to awaken our consciousness of the Divine Feminine to a higher level. Open your self to Peace, Love & Prosperity. . .
"Transits of Venus are very rare, separated by more than a hundred years. There have been 53 transits since 2000 B.C. but only six have been witnessed since the invention of the telescope in 1608. These rare events occur in pairs, with the first transit occurring June 8, 2004. The next opportunity won't be until Dec. 10-11, 2117."  - Michele Johnson - Ames Research Center, Moffett Field, Calif.

Despite having learned many skills that assist with stress & relaxation, I still have a personal battle with anxiety & at times depression.
I think I have always had anxiety but only became aware of what anxiety is back in 2009.
When my anxiety reached its peak and every day was a constant battle to try to stay calm and feel sane.
After much work on my self with self healing, psychologists, research & learning to understand myself better my anxiety levels had dropped considerably.

until now. . . 

As mentioned in my previous post my happy start to a new life hasn't happened as I had hoped, on top of everything my partner & I had some major communication issues which have left me wondering if we are going to have a future together.
All these combined have contributed to my anxiety peaking again with a few panic attacks over the past month.
While I understand more of what triggers my anxiety (feeling out of control & conflict of ideas, not being heard/respected/listened to) are a few, knowing what to do and how to calm down during and ideally before I reach panic attack point is a challenge.


I have decided June is a New Month & a New Start so hopefully by addressing the emotional issues at the base of my anxiety I can heal & get back to my preferred happy self.
I will be making some changes to improve my diet & cut out as much sugar & processed foods as possible.
Meditate & exercise more often and most important. . .

Focusing on staying true to myself - If I love, approve & value myself for WHO I AM - not what I think others want me to be - Then my emotional health is usually much more balanced

Do you have anxiety? What do you do to help you?

Much Love

May Full Moon - Update on Happenings in my Life

Full Moon for May last night marking two months since we collected the keys to our house. I haven't posted as regularly as I would like due to our first few months here being more chaotic that I expected. . . A dream come true has began a bit more like a mild nightmare with most members of our house hold becoming ill, our five bobby calves becoming ill, two of which sadly died, along with four of my young cockatiels dying.
The link so far seems to be the tank water supplying our house being infected with a parasite, cryptosporidium. In adults it usually causes mild symptoms of diarrhea, cramping, aching muscles & headaches. In my 4 year old daughters case it caused her non-stop vomiting & diarrhea leading her to be hospitalised for four days on IV fluids.
It was almost two weeks after her first symptoms we got a diagnosis. We are now awaiting results from water samples taken by our local council. Thankfully now we have changed our drinking water & are making our calves milk with different water our health is all improving.
Along with many repairs that had to be arranged once we moved in and having much less land available to us as what we were shown at the open for inspection we are now being told is incorrect, so we have to now negotiate to try & get what we believe we were agreeing to.
It makes me ponder that something that felt so right(moving into this home) has now resulted in loss, sadness & stress not the happy beginning that I expected. It has been a learning curve & I will be sharing some of what I have learned over the next few posts. On top of that I have a court date tomorrow to hopefully have  my bond from my previous house returned to me.

My intentions & manifestation for the coming month are
1. For a fair resolution to the difficulties we have encountered including reasonable compensation if the tank water is confirmed as the source of our illness/loss.
2. To finally have quiet enjoyment of our new home & forward movement in creating new positive opportunities
3. To set some reiki course dates
4. Fair resolution to having my bond returned from my previous home
5. To regain feelings of balance & harmony with in myself
6. Most important is forthe return of optimum health of myself, family & pets

Happenings In My Life

Only one moon cycle until we collect the keys for our new place. I have a house to pack & clean but am looking forward to living at our new home.

The first time I drove down the driveway of our new home, I knew that it was home, I had dreamed or experienced that place before - from another life maybe or maybe just connecting with my destiny for this life.

I was nervous still just in case my feelings of it being 'right' were 'wrong'. Trying to remain neutral so if our application was unsuccessful then I could focus on a different plan.

I like to plan & know whats ahead, so when I am entering the unknown I can feel more anxious, it's important that I don't get too a head of myself. I ground myself often, by focusing on my breath & feeling my energy connect down deep into the earth.

I use affirmations & trust I am heading in the right direction at this point in time. And am mostly excited for the New that's coming my way!

2012 Positive Changes

This first month or so of 2012, has proven to be very exciting, with many of my long term goals, starting to come to fruition.
My dream ever since I was 10 has been to live on a farm & breed horses, originally Welsh Ponies, later Arabians.
Last Friday my boyfriend & I were accepted as the new tenants for an 11 acre farm - the dream begins!

Our new house is an old farmhouse around 80 years old, it has enough space for us our children (5),as well as beautiful space for Ashkara's Healing Temple.

I have been a single mum of 3 children for the past 3 and a bit years, my boyfriend has 2 children, one he has full time & one half the time, so we will all have some adjusting to do.

Have you gone from a single family to a blended family, what tips do you have?

How has 2012 been for you so far?
