The Inspiration Fairies
We’ve been snowed in since Monday – not a lot of snow, but just enough to make it worth hunkering down at home, snuggling up and just enjoying the new rhythm of slower days. Two of our friends were visiting for one night, and got stuck here too (they left today – 5 days later). We’ve taken it as an opportunity to hold sacred ceremony, engage in creative pursuits (we made 22 mushroom bowling sets this week!), delicious food, laughter, massages, friendship and spiritual chats. It has been fun and eye-opening in many ways.
Recently, we watched a show that had been broadcast on National Geographic Channel called “Brain Games: Pay Attention”. It was all about how our brains work and how we are only seeing a small portion of “reality” at any one moment. (the entire series is on You Tube, btw) As we go through our lives, we are only taking in a little bit of what actually exists around us. There is much more out there than we perceive.
The slower rhythm of our “snow week” allowed us to pay attention to more of the details around us. What we found was both fun and fascinating! We discovered that the 4 adults (plus one of our boys) are all seeing similar things – numbers, times on the clock, shapes, common trends in our lives. It made us all wonder how much more we would see if we were paying more attention. So we did it as a group, and these synchronicities were everywhere!
I wonder if we truly were able to take in everything around us, how our lives might be different? How many “signs” are out there that we just don’t see? Tim and I love seeing “signs” because it makes us feel like we are connected to the Universe. It reinforces the notion that we are on the right path in our lives.
What “signs” or synchronicities have you seen in your life lately? Here are some of our recent favorites:
*The number 6 appearing everywhere. And also, the transition from 5 to 6, and 6 to 8. I don’t know what it means yet, but it’s come up dozens of times this week.
*Triangles and sacred geometry. How certain symbols carry over from tradition to tradition.
*Perfect timing of things – how saying “yes” to some choices led to unimaginable new possibilities.
Other Magic:
*Having our home to ourselves again!
*Getting projects done!
*Our kids have been AMAZING while being cooped up this week!
*Amazing insights about our daughter!
*A warm home to shelter us from the snow!
That’s our magic. Tell us about the “signs” and funny coincidences you have had lately. Remember, Magic is Real!
