When Horse came back to the Americas, he brought with him the ability to move rapidly from place to place—and it’s this rapid movement that he brings to you today. Get up, get out of the rut you’ve created. Grab Horse’s mane, pull yourself onto his back and let him carry you across the plains of your life. The time for being stuck is over.
I have a request, Please don’t run off because I showed up. Today is going to be a very short edition of our daily publications. I will be here probably a hour or two, then I have to run off to my daughter’s house.
I just wanted to take a moment and spend some time with my online family today. I don’t know if you believe or celebrate Thanksgiving but I know I do. I have always said it, “Pagans have the best of everything!” That is probably why we had so much of our traditions and practices stolen from us, lol! A fight for another day, not today! I don’t view Thanksgiving as a religious holiday. I believe it is part of my American heritage just as well as my Celtic heritage is. I do stop to thank the Goddess for all the wonderful gifts and blessings She has given me. I thank the Goddess for bringing each and everyone of you into my life. You have touched my heart and soul so much. I can feel your love, support and caring every time I am here. I am very proud and honored to be able to call each of you my family. I have truly been blessed.
I hope each and everyone has a very blessed and joyous Thanksgiving Day. Don’t eat too much, stay safe, and stay warm.
Happy Thanksgiving, dear family and friends!
Love & Blessings,
Lady A & The WOTC

Native American traditions speak of four powers, or Spirit Keepers, associated with the four directions, animals, colors, and qualities, that may be honored and invoked, celebrated and worked with in order to bring ourselves into better balance with What Is.
Take this simple quiz to see which Native American Spirit Keeper would be most helpful to you now:
Look at the following sets of three statements. Which set of three is most true for you?
A1. I long for a sense of renewal and quickening in my life.
2. I desire more clarity.
3. I feel that increased intelligence, intensity, and purity would be helpful to me now.
B1. I long for transformation in my life.
2. I desire to be more grounded.
3. I feel that increased endurance, stability, and introspection would be helpful to me now.
C1. I long for illumination.
2. I desire a sense of awakening and newness.
3. I feel that increased Light, spirituality, and far-sightedness would be helpful to me now.
D1. I long for discovery in my life.
2. I desire a sense of unfolding and organic growth.
3. I feel that increased vitality, intuition and awareness of feelings would be helpful to me now.
If you chose A, you need the Power of the North. Animal: Buffalo Color: White The Power of the North clarifies the mind and purifies our mental being.
If you chose B, you need the Power of the West. Animal: Grizzly Bear Color: Black The Power of the West activates the intelligence of the physical body and enables it to work with the material substances that constitute our flesh, blood and bones.
If you chose C, you need the Power of the East. Animal: Eagle Color: Yellow The Power of the East enables us to be enlightened with sudden flashes of inspiration and understanding through our innermost “self,” which is the noblest aspect of our total being.
If you chose D, you need the Power of the South. Animal: Mouse Color: Red The Power of the South empowers and strengthens the intuitive “self.”
Spend some time facing or contemplating the direction you chose. Connect with those qualities within you. You may want to petition the power animal of that direction to help and guide you.
Culling Out The Weeds
Mind Over Matter
The power of the mind is a curious thing, because it is so powerful yet so difficult to control sometimes. We find ourselves thinking a certain way, knowing that this thought may be creating trouble for us yet we find it difficult to stop. For example, many people have the experience of getting sick at the same time every year or every time they go on a plane. They may even be aware that their beliefs impact their experiences, so continue to think they will get sick and then they do.
Sometimes we need to get sick in order to process something or move something through our bodies. But often we get sick, or feel exhausted, because we don’t make the effort to galvanize the power of our minds in the service of our physical health, which is one of its most important functions. We really can use it to communicate to our bodies, yet we often regard the two as separate entities that have little to do with one another.
Knowing this, we have the power to create physical health and mental health, simply by paying attention to the tapes running in our minds. Once we hear ourselves, we have the option to let that tape keep running or to make a new recording. We harness the power of the mind in our defense when we choose supportive, healing words that foster good health and high spirits. All we need to do is remember to tend the field of our mind with the attentive and loving hand of a master gardener tending her flower beds, culling out the weeds so that the blossoms may come to fruition.
When your efforts bring the results you seek and also when they don’t, keep moving. Welcome the achievements with humility, welcome the setbacks with confidence, and keep moving.
Don’t use success as an excuse to rest on your accomplishments. Don’t use failure as an excuse to give up.
Whatever has happened before, your best choice now is to keep moving, keep learning, keep making the effort, and keep improving. Build new value with what does work, and accumulate valuable experience from what doesn’t work.
When you realize you’ve been distracted and wandered off course, don’t let it get you down. Just accept where you are, figure out the best way forward, and quickly get going again.
When you’re standing still or being pushed backward, you have no control over what happens to you. Keep moving, because the way to control your direction is to have some direction, and the more assertively you move, the more control you have.
Life’s abundance is all around you, and each day brings new opportunities for fulfillment. Use every day to keep moving, and bring your best possibilities to life.

Good Monday to you all! I hope you are having a great day. My granddaughter is having a birthday party this afternoon. I have been up since 3 a.m. I am sure I will be given out by the time the party starts. I have already did a full day’s work. Of course, there is no rest for the wicked, lol! Anyway, please forgive me if I fly through the postings today.
I hope you all having a fantastic day. And remember only 4 more days to the weekend, lol!

ELEVEN November 1 – Daily Feast The danger point comes after a victory when we think there are no more battles. How many wars have been fought thinking this is the war that will end all wars? Even in our own private battles we cannot lie back and think we have won the right to peace. We do need to know and remember that we are more than conquerors. It is a life promise, but we have to claim it. Other claims have taken precedence – weariness, lack, sickness – but we are conquerors, even more than conquerors. We are winners and overcomers. Believe it, because it is true, and the more we claim it, the stronger it is. ~ Where is our strength? In the old times we were strong. ~ CHIPAROPAI – YUMA ‘A Cherokee Feast of Days, Volume II’ by Joyce Sequichie Hifler *<<<=-=>>>*<<<=-=>>>*<<<=-=>>>*<<<=-=>>>* |
