"Be a yardstick of quality. Some people aren't used
to an environment where excellence is expected."

Physical pain is just an extension of
emotion. It's all the same thing. There are two emotions. One feels good and
one feels bad. Which means, you're connected to your Energy Stream or you're
not allowing your Energy Stream. --- Abraham

workshop in Phoenix , AZ on Sunday, April 5th, 1998 # 580
The thoughts that you think will - wanted or not wanted - eventually become
manifestation if your vibrational accord is sufficient enough... And so, you
could say, as you're launching thoughts of appreciation and things that make
you feel good, that you're filling your Vibrational
Escrow full of all kinds of things that are going to please you when
you get there. --- Abraham

Our Varied Behavior Adds to the Planet's Well-Being... When you remember that nothing can come into your
experience without your Vibrational invitation of it, then you do the simple
work of paying attention to your own Vibrational offering, and you save
yourself the enormous and impossible task of controlling the behavior of
others. When you
remember that the varied behavior of others adds to the balance and the
Well-Being of your planet even if they offer behavior that you do not approve of;
and that you do not have to participate in the unwanted behavior, and will not
- unless you give your attention to it - you become more willing to allow
others to live as they choose. --- Abraham

Daily Feng Shui Tip from
Astrology.com
I know from past
feedback that today's tip absolutely works to push bullies to the side. So
let's spice up 'World Day of Bullying Prevention' by embracing an ancient
technique. In certain Eastern and Oriental cultures, cinnamon is considered the
'warm brown spice of friendship' that also packs the power to fend off bullies.
It is said that this spice bestows protection and strength while also
destroying 'enemies.' A pinch in a pocket or a bit sprinkled inside a wallet
(or anywhere else) will employ powers of protection that can conquer all kinds
of fear. Now, that's sweet!

Birth
The
birth event is the one sacred event that virtually every culture holds in
common. Not surprisingly, it is one of Jung's archetypal selves-the self
creating life for another. Since it is an archetype, there are lots of other dream
images that lead back toward birth and life. Water and oceans are the two
significant ones. Many cultures embrace the symbol of water as crucial to life.
Many times, women who intuitively know that either they or a friend may be
pregnant will dream of water. This may be related to the broken water images of
pregnancy.
Emerging from a cave or
isolated place as a new self is a Jungian version of birth themes. In this
sense, birth is not limited to biological events, but also includes the advent
of additional facets of personality or self-awareness in your waking life.
Freud held that
entering back into small rooms or caves was symbolic of the womb. This could
herald a desire to return to mother, be nurtured, or experience the mother's
power as a protector in certain situations. Since all of us have been born, we
have feelings about it for better or worse. We may feel as though life has been
a fortunate or an unfortunate experience. Either way, these feelings play into
our birth dreams as either positive or negative experiences as well.
How is the birth for
the dreamer? Women may experience birth dreams out of either desire for or
anxiety toward pregnancy. In this case, the medical, social, and sexual
histories of the dreamer would be very significant. There may be moral,
religious, or medical factors that make a pregnancy either desirable or
dangerous. Examples may include a young woman who is sexually active against
her moral or religious teachings or, a woman trying to conceive, yet unable to
do so. In these cases, a guilt-producing deed may be construed as causing the
birth or lack thereof.
Women who see
themselves giving birth under positive circumstances may be affirming
themselves not just in birth, but as archetypal women. They are able to see
themselves as competent within their gender to complete the traditional roles
of the gender. While this sounds incredibly sexist, it is true in the sense
that all of us see men and women as particular and individual persons with
strengths and abilities. It's what makes an archetype an archetype.
Drugs
Drug
use in dreams is often a sign of taboo violation. Drugs have powerful social
symbolism attached to them that makes it difficult for a drug-user to feel good
about him or herself as a user. The exception is use of drugs in spiritual
preparation. In certain Native American groups, the use of peyote as dream
preparation or during a dream is associated with journeying to find one's self
and life vision. As interest in Native American spirituality increases, some
people may dream of themselves as participating in sacred rites.
How does using drugs
affect your relationship with others in the dream?
Do you fit into or
become excluded from a particular group?
Do you feel guilty or
good?
Effect
of drug use on dreams
Drug use affects the
brain by enlarging the time spent in Stage 4 deep sleep and shortening
REM-phase dreaming. Since certain drugs are consciousness-altering, they may
cause dreamers to feel expanded consciousness prior to going to sleep. However,
drug use ultimately disrupts sleep patterns with negative results.
Mirror
In
dreams, mirrors can reflect directly, reflect with additions or deletions, or
serve as a doorway into another reality as in Alice in Wonderland. The mirror is troubling
because it shows us plainly what is before us, forcing us to interpret and
evaluate whether or not we like what we see.
If the mirror is
inconsistent-by adding or deleting images-it is a projection of perceptive
versus actual reality. In this case the dream may be a herald that you are
misinterpreting the motives of others by not accepting them at face value. (Who
or what is being added or deleted from the mirror?)
Finally, the mirror as
a doorway to another world is usually a fantasy created by the subconscious. As
Alice
discovered when she went through the looking glass, the mirror is a metaphor of
possible worlds. Does your dream mirror function as a gate or access out of one
boundary and into another possible world?
What is more desirable
or more threatening about that world?
